The St. Helena Star is alleging that the St. Helena City Council has once again violated California’s open meeting law, the Brown Act, by not posting their discussion of compensation for former City Manager, Mary Neilan.
The council held a closed door meeting to discuss Neilan’s no-cause firing and negotiated a severance package and confidentiality clause. The agenda for the meeting did not mention that compensation was under discussion. -db
