Milwaukee board approves intergovernmental agreement with City for school resource officers
Summary
At a special meeting March 4, the Milwaukee Board of School Directors voted 8-0 to approve an intergovernmental agreement with the City of Milwaukee concerning school resource officers; the item was discussed in closed session under Wisconsin Statutes §19.85 and no public testimony was taken.
The Milwaukee Board of School Directors voted 8-0 Tuesday to approve an intergovernmental agreement with the City of Milwaukee for school resource officers.
The vote came at a special meeting March 4 called by Board President Marva Herndon. Director O'Halloran moved approval of the agreement; Director Garcia seconded. The roll call showed eight ayes and no nays; Director Jackson was excused.
The agreement was considered in closed session under Wisconsin Statutes §19.85 for matters involving strategy with legal counsel and personnel and bargaining matters, as read into the record when the board moved into closed session. As stated at the start of the meeting, public testimony was not accepted at this special meeting. The terms of the intergovernmental agreement (for example, specific duties, funding or duration) were not specified in the public record during the meeting.
The board returned to open session to take the formal vote after the closed-session discussion. The board secretary recorded the roll call votes approving the agreement.
No amendments to the agreement were recorded in the public minutes. The board did not solicit public comment on the item because the meeting notice stated that public testimony would not be taken.
