Human Resources Committee votes to go into closed session to prepare strategy for deputy sheriffs’ contract talks

3108326 · March 19, 2025

Summary

The committee voted to enter a closed session under Wisconsin law to caucus and develop negotiation strategy for collective bargaining with the Walworth County Deputy Sheriffs Association.

The Walworth County Human Resources Committee voted on March 19 to convene a closed session under Wisconsin Statutes §19.85(1)(e) to caucus and develop negotiation strategy for collective bargaining with the Walworth County Deputy Sheriffs Association.

Chair Susan Pruzink called for the motion and committee members approved a motion to go into closed session; a roll call vote was recorded with the five committee members present voting yes. Committee staff cited the Wisconsin statute exception allowing closed deliberations when competitive or bargaining reasons require confidentiality.

Committee members returned to open session later in the agenda. The committee’s chair announced the next meeting date—Wednesday, April 23 at 3:30 p.m.—and members moved to adjourn without further public action on the bargaining subject.

No details of bargaining positions, proposals, or decisions were disclosed in open session; the committee invoked the statutory closed‑session exception for negotiation strategy.
