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 of Directors 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 Board of Directors shall recess to
closed session pursuant to Government Code Section
54956.9(a) to confer with its attorneys with respect to
confidential matters within the attorney-client privilege
regarding pending litigation which has been initiated
formally and to which the Agency is a party. The title of
this litigation is Lyte v. Azusa CRA.
SECTION 3. The City Council and Board of Directors
shall recess to closed session to consider personnel matters
pursuant to Government Code Section 54957 relating to the
appointment, evaluation, dismissal, and charges against
certain employees.
SECTION 4. In connection with the litigation
matters 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 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
Agency's adversaries and allow them to negotiate a
settlement of the matters adverse to the Agency;
