A JOINT RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF AZUSA AND THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF
THE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF AZUSA
TO RECESS TO CLOSED SESSION ON NOVEMBER 18,
1985, PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF GOVERNMENT
CODE SECTION 54957 AND MAKING FINDINGS PURSUANT
TO GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 54956.9(a) AND (c)
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AZUSA DOES HEREBY
RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. Closed sessions of the City Council and
Board are permitted for various purposes pursuant to
Government Code Section 54957 for the purposes of discus-
sions with the City or Agency Attorney of matters within the
attorney-client privilege relating to litigation and
potential litigation, discussion of matters with the City's
or Agency's authorized labor representative, discussion of
personnel matters relating to the appointment, evaluation,
dismissal, or charges against an employee, or to give
instructions to the City's or Agency negotiator regarding
the purchase, sale, exchange, or lease of certain property,
among others. It is the policy of the City Council and the
Board to strictly adhere to the requirements of the Brown
Act (the California Public Meeting Act) and to only recess
to closed session when absolutely necessary.
SECTION 2. The City Council and Board of Directors
shall recess to closed session pursuant to Government Code
Section 54956.9(a) to confer with its attorneys regarding
pending litigation which has been initiated formally and to
which the Agency is a party. The title of this litigation
is Corcoran v. City of Azusa, Lyte v. Azusa Redevelopment
Agency.
SECTION 3. In connection with the litigation
matters discussed above, the City Council and Board
specifically finds that:
A. Discussion of the litigation matters in open
session would be prejudicial to the interest of
the City and Agency in that matters within the
attorney-client privilege will be discussed and
disclosure of such discussions would violate and
waive the attorney-client privilege and would give
an unfair advantage to the City's and Agency's
adversaries and allow them to negotiate a
settlement of the matters adverse to the City and
Agency; and
B. It has received a confidential letter from the
City and Agency Attorney pursuant to Government
Code Section 54956.9 describing the grounds and the
authority for the closed session.
SECTION 4. The City Clerk shall certify the
adoption of this Resolution.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 18th day of
November 1985.
