Meredith responded regarding her thoughts on Executive Session, “I believe the only time we should go into Executive Session is when it deals with personnel issues, that by matter of the law are private. The only other time is regarding ongoing lawsuits that could be adversely effected by information disclosed."

TWHBEA President Jerrold Pedigo has also pledged to be as “transparent” as possible during 2006 proceedings to clear up any perceptions of impropriety.
