requirements of the Brown Act (the California Public Meeting Act)

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 with respect to

discussed above, the City Council and Board of Directors
specifically find that:
A. Discussion of the litigation matters described
above in open session would be prejudicial to the
interests of the City and the 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 the Agency's
adversaries and allow them to negotiate a settlement of
the matters adverse to the City and the Agency; and
SECTION 5. The City Clerk and Secretary shall certify
the adoption of this Resolution.
