Planning & Zoning Commission v. Freedom of Information Commission

Summary

The court held that the zoning commission's executive session was not authorized by the Freedom of Information Act's pending claims or pending litigation exception. The commission was not discussing litigation or a legal proceeding to which it was or would be a party, and the earlier permit-extension case had already been finally adjudicated when the session occurred. The court therefore reversed the trial court's judgment and directed entry of judgment denying the administrative appeal.
