INTRODUCED BY DaRon McGee, County Legislator
Body
WHEREAS, the Jackson County Legislature desires to hold a closed meeting on Monday, July 10, 2023, during the regularly scheduled meeting of the Legislature; and,
WHEREAS, public notice of such closed meeting has been given by inclusion of this Resolution on the published agenda for said meeting; and,
WHEREAS, the purpose of such closed meeting is to conduct confidential communications concerning operational guidelines, policies, and specific response plans developed, adopted, or maintained by any public agency responsible for law enforcement, public safety, first response, or public health for use in responding to or preventing any critical incident which is or appears to be terrorist in nature and which has the potential to endanger individual or public safety or health; and,
WHEREAS, the disclosure of this information, including records to be discussed at said meeting, would impair the Legislature’s ability to protect the security and/or safety of persons and/or real property, such that the public interest in nondisclosure outweighs the public interest in disclosure of such records; and,
