Boardhawk: Denver school board member John Youngquist is alleging that the board violated state open meetings law by misstating the purpose of a recent executive session, and by excluding him from that session because it dealt with a matter he had raised about his compensation. 

In a letter to Board of Education President Carrie Olson dated December 17 and obtained by Boardhawk, (see full text below), Youngquist requested that a recording of the executive session be made available to him, and be made public.

In response to the letter, three of Youngquist’s fellow board members –  Scott Esserman, Michelle Quattlebaum, and Xóchitl “Sochi” Gaytán, on Thursday requested that the board’s Jan. 9 work session agenda include a discussion of alleged policy violations by Youngquist.
