<br />person or persons involved, unless the students have
<br />specifically consented to or requested the disclosure of
<br />such matters. An executive session may be held only at
<br />a regular or special meeting of the state public body and
<br />only upon the announcement by the public body to the
<br />public of the topic for discussion in the executive
<br />session and the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the
<br />entire membership of the body after such
<br />announcement.

<br />(b) shall not apply to discussions concerning any
<br />member ofthe state public body, any elected official, or
<br />the appointment of a person to fill the office of a
<br />member of the state public body or an elected official or
<br />to discussions of personnel policies that do not require
<br />the discussion of matters personal to particular
<br />employees.
<br />(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a)
<br />and (b) of this subsection (3), the state board of parole
<br />created in part 2 of article l of title 11, c.R.S., may
<br />proceed in executive session to consider matters
<br />connected with any parole proceedings under the
<br />jurisdiction of said board; except that no final parole
<br />decisions shall be made by said board while in
<br />executive session. Such executive session may be held
<br />only at a regular or special meeting of the state board of
<br />parole and only upon the affIrmative vote of two-thirds
<br />of the membership of the board present at such meeting.
<br />(3.5) A search committee of a state public body or local
<br />public body shall establish job search goals, including
<br />the writing of the job description, deadlines for
<br />applications, requirements for applicants, selection
<br />procedures, and the time frame for appointing or
<br />employing a chief executive officer of an agency,
<br />authority, institution, or other entity at an open meeting.
<br />The state or local public body shall make public the list
<br />of all finalists under consideration for the position of
<br />chief executive officer no later than fourteen days prior
<br />to appointing or employing one of the fmalists to fill the
<br />position. No offer of appointment or employment shall
<br />be made prior to this public notice. Records submitted
<br />by or on behalf of a fmalist for such position shall be
<br />subject to the provisions of section 24-72-204 (3) (a)
<br />(XI). As used in this subsection (3.5), "finalist" shall
<br />have the same meaning as in section 24-72-204 (3) (a)
<br />(XI). Nothing in this subsection (3.5) shall be construed
<br />to prohibit a search committee from holding an
<br />executive session to consider appointment or

<br />this subsection (4) authorizing the body to meet in an
<br />executive session and identification of the particular
<br />
<br />matter to be discussed in as much detail as possible
<br />without compromising the purpose for which the
<br />executive session is authorized, and the affirmative vote
<br />of two-thirds of the quorum present, after such
<br />announcement, may hold an executive session only at a
<br />regular or special meeting and for the sole purpose of
<br />considering any of the following matters; except that no
<br />adoption of any proposed policy, position, resolution,
<br />rule, regulation, or formal action, except the review,
<br />approval, and amendment of the minutes of an
<br />executive session recorded pursuant to subparagraph (II)
<br />of paragraph (d.5) of subsection (2) of this section, shall
<br />occur at any executive session that is not open to the
<br />public:
<br />(a) The purchase, acquisition, lease, transfer, or sale of
<br />any real, personal, or other property interest; except that
<br />no executive session shall be held for the purpose of

<br />acquisition, lease, transfer, or sale;
<br />(b) Conferences with an attorney for the local public
<br />body for the purposes of receiving legal advice on
<br />specific legal questions. Mere presence or participation
<br />of an attorney at an executive session of the local public
<br />body is not suffIcient to satisfy the requirements of this
<br />subsection (4);
<br />(c) Matters required to be kept confidential by federal or
<br />state law or rules and regulations. The local public body
<br />shall announce the specific citation of the statutes or
<br />rules that are the basis for such confidentiality before

<br />investigations, including defenses against terrorism,

<br />the law;
<br />( e) Detennining positions relative to matters that may be
<br />subject to negotiations; developing strategy for
<br />negotiations; and instructing negotiators;
<br />(f) (I) Personnel matters except if the employee who is
<br />the subject of the session has requested an open
<br />meeting, or if the personnel matter involves more than
<br />one employee, all of the employees have requested an
<br />open meeting. With respect to hearings held pursuant to
<br />the "Teacher Employment, Compensation, and
<br />Dismissal Act of 1990", article 63 of title 22, C.R.S., the
<br />provisions of section 22-63-302 (7) (a), C.R.S., shall
<br />govern in lieu of the provisions of this subsection (4).
<br />(II) The provisions of subparagraph (I) of this paragraph
<br />(f) shall not apply to discussions concerning any
<br />member of the local public body, any elected official, or
<br />the appointment of a person to fill the office of a
<br />member of the local public body or an elected offIcial or
<br />to discussions of personnel policies that do not require
<br />the discussion of matters personal to particular
<br />employees.
