West Chester cancels closed door meeting after questions raised
Daily Local News
WEST CHESTER -- The borough cancelled the executive session scheduled Wednesday evening where members of the Turk‘s Head Stadium Alliance planned to discuss the proposed minor league baseball stadium with borough council.
The borough had come under attack from one resident who questioned whether the executive session, which is not open to the public, was a violation of the Sunshine Act.
On Thursday, borough manager Ernie McNeely explained that the meeting was cancelled on the advice of their solicitor.
”Someone needed to be legally speaking for the property and since the baseball group does not have an option or agreement to purchase the property with Pfizer nor were they bringing a representative from Pfizer“ then the meeting couldn‘t go on, said McNeely.
