The Lower Merion Board of Commissioners meets at 8 p.m. today for its regular monthly meeting.

Prior to that, though, the Board’s Legal Affairs Committee is scheduled to start at “approximately 7:50 p.m., at which time there may be items referred to the Board for action.” There is no further information available on what these items might include.

The Board states on its published agenda that it met in “Executive Session” on June 1 for a “personnel matter,” on June 8 for “personnel and litigation matters,” and that it plans to do so again before Thursday night’s meeting “to receive reports from senior staff.”
