Merit Appeals Board August 12, 2024 <br />CHR. CABANAS: No, it's not a sealed hearing. <br />MR. WISEMAN: So, it's a closed hearing with respect to whatever evidence, or testimony, or <br />statements are made but as far as his name goesI object to it being sealed. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Mr. Halvorson, can you provide guidance to the Board, please? <br />MR. HALVORSON: Yeah, I don't think it really makes much difference. You can go ahead <br />and start your closed meeting right now. It's not the same as going into executive session. It's <br />just closed to the public. So, any members of the public that are in the hearing room, need to be <br />excused and you can go ahead and just do your closed meeting and don't get hung up onI <br />understand what the Board members concern were but I don't think you need to get hung up on <br />it. And I think you just go ahead and start your closed meeting, get the pubic out of the hearing <br />room, and proceed. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Okay. `Cause we are in open session. So, may I have a motion to go into <br />closed session? <br />MS. MATHEWS: So moved. <br />MS. BOND: Second. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Thank you. Any discussion? If not, I'll start a rollcall vote with <br />Ms. Mathews. <br />MS. MATHEWS: Aye. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Mr. Kunz. <br />MR. KUNZ: Aye. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Mr. Wiseman. <br />MR.
