Greetings All:
An employee eligible for retirement has requested a lump sum payout. Initially I thought the agenda item qualified under 25 O.S. Section 307(B)(4). I am on the cusp of convincing myself otherwise. Thoughts please.
Thank you.

I think executive session would be a stretch and in the past i have taken the conservative approach and handled in open meeting. If there is no controversy i would place on consent agenda and provide explanatory memo to governing body as privileged attorney client communication.
