    <summary>A citizen complained that the Village of Lisbon Board of Trustees held an improper closed-door meeting. The Attorney General's office found that the Board did not follow the correct legal steps to enter the closed session and discussed a topic that should have been handled in public. While the Board did not violate the law regarding final actions taken in that meeting, the overall process for entering and conducting the closed session was legally deficient.</summary>
