ANALYSIS
Annexation work sessions.
Executive sessions.
I.
Annexation Work Sessions.
Where four private "work sessions" were
held by the mayor and city council to discuss
an annexation proposal prior to voting on the
proposals at special public meetings, such
work sessions were "meetings" under subsec-
tion (5) of S 67..2341, which had to be open to
the public pursuant to subsection (1) of this
section and failure to provide public notice as
required by ~ 67-2343 or to take written
minutes as required by 9 67-2344 violated
i
I
I
the Open Meetings Act; however, since no firm
and final decisions were made at the work
sessions on the annexation proposal, the sub..
sequent city council vote approving the pro-
posal was not null and void under ~ 67-2347.
State ex reI. Roark v. City of Hailey, 102 Idaho
511, 633 P.2d 576 (1981).
Executive Sessions.
Exclusion of school superintendent from
executive sessions of school board, in which
superintendent was evaluated and the exten-
sion of his contract was discussed, did not
violate the open meeting law, where the deci-
sion not to offer the superintendent a new
contract was made in an open meeting of the
board. Gardner v. School Dist. No. 55, 108
Idaho 434, 700 P.2d 56 (1985).
Opinions of Attorney General. Only cer-
tain documents which have been excluded
from public inspection by clear statutory pro-
vision may be considered in executive session.
OAG 85-9.
The Commission of Pardons and Parole
may not vote in private; thus, matters dis-
cussed in executive session must still be voted
upon in public. OAG 85-9.
67-2343. Notice of meetings. - (1) Regular meetings. No less than a
five (5) calendar day meeting notice shall be given unless otherwise provided
by statute. Provided however, that any public agency that holds meetings at

"Raw Notes" Taken by Clerk.
Trial court erred in holding that as a matter
of law "raw notes" ("handwritten notes," "raw
minutes") taken by Clerk of the Board of
County Commissioners during meetings of
the County Board of Commissioners, could
not be public writings. Fox v. Estep, 118 Idaho
454, 797 P.2d 854 (1990).
67-2345. Executive sessions - When authorized. - (1) Nothing
contained in this act shall be construed to prevent, upon a two-thirds (%)
vote recorded in the minutes of the meeting by individual vote, a governing
body of a public agency from holding an executive session during any
meeting, after the presiding officer has identified the authorization under
this act for the holding of such executive session. An executive session may
be held:
(a) To consider hiring a public officer, employee, staff member or individ-
ual agent. This paragraph does not apply to filling a vacancy in an elective
office;
(b) To consider the evaluation, dismissal or disciplining of, or to hear
complaints or charges brought against, a public officer, employee, staff
member or individual agent, or public school student;
(c) To conduct deliberations concerning labor negotiations or to acquire
an interest in real property which is not owned by a public agency;
(d) To consider records that are exempt from disclosure as provided in
chapter 3, title 9, Idaho Code;
(e) To consider preliminary negotiations involving matters of trade or
commerce in which the governing body is in competition with governing
bodies in other states or nations;

(f) To consider and advise its legal representatives in pending litigation or
where there is a general public awareness of probable litigation;
(g) By the commission of pardons and parole, as provided by law.
(2) Labor negotiations may be conducted in executive session if either
side requests closed meetings. Notwithstanding the provisions of section
67-2343, Idaho Code, subsequent sessions of the negotiations may continue
without further public notice.
(3) No executive session may be held for the purpose of taking any final
action or making any final decision. [1974, ch. 187, 9 6, p. 1492; am. 1976,

Closed session.
Conft.ict \\rith other statute.
Discharge of commission director.
Equal protection. ·
Closed Session.
Where an executive session is authorized to
consider the dismissal of an employee, the
deliberating process can be conducted in a
closed session. There is no requirement that
private discussions of personnel matters must
be repeated in public. Nelson v. Boundary
County, 109 Idaho 205, 706 P.2d 94 (Ct. App.
1985).
Conflict With Other Statute.
There is a clear and definite conft.ict be-
tween the provisions of this section of the
open meeting law and S 31-713, which re-
quires that all meetings of the Board of
County Commissioners be public; this section,
which ,vas enacted later in time, governs.
Nelson v. Boundary County, 109 Idaho 205,
706 P.2d 94 (Ct. App. 1985).
Discharge of Commission Director.
There was no merit to the contention that
)
the Commission for the Blind must have met
before the public meeting and decided to fire
the director and appoint her replacement,
where the new appointee spoke several hours
after the motion to terminate had been made
and debated, and he qualified his remarks
with the comment, "if the board does make
the decision to retain." Gardner v. Evans, 110
Idaho 925, 719 P.2d 1185, cert. denied, 479
U.S. 1007, 107 S. Ct. 645, 93 L. Ed. 2d 701
(1986).
The fact that the letter of dismissal given to
the director of the Commission for the Blind a
very short time after the meeting terminated
had "legal type wording" did not prove that
the commission had decided to fire her before
the public meeting. Gardner v. Evans, 110
Idaho 925, 719 P.2d 1185, cert. denied, 479
U.S. 1007, 107 S. Ct. 645, 93 L. Ed. 2d 701
(1986).
The fact that a press release stating that
the director had been dismissed was handed
to the press before the Commission for the
Blind had voted on her dismissal did not
prove that the commission had decided to fire
her before the public meeting where the press
release was not attributable to the commis-
sion. Gardner v. Evans, 110 Idaho 925, 719
P.2d 1185, cert. denied, 479 U.S. 1007, 107 S.
Ct. 645, 93 L. Ed. 2d 701 (1986).
The fact that a locksmith arrived several
minutes after the meeting to fire the director
of the Commission for the Blind and appoint
her replacement had concluded, in order to
change the lock on the door of the director's
office, was not substantial and competent
proof that members of the commission met
before the meeting and. had an agreement to
discharge the director. Gardner v. Evans, 110
Idaho 925, 719 P.2d 1185, cert. denied, 479
