The Village of Jackson Village Board voted unanimously Tuesday to enter a closed session under Wisconsin Statutes §19.85(1)(c), (e) and (g) to receive information about specific employees and to deliberate real estate and litigation strategy.
The vote followed a motion to adjourn to closed session made under the cited sections of the Wisconsin Statutes. President Heckendorf moved the motion, Trustee Kripke seconded, and a roll call showed Trustees Wells, Kripke, Heckendorf, Kurz, Engelhardt and Emerick voting “aye.” The board recorded the motion as carrying 6-0; the meeting record notes one member was excused.
The board stated the closed session was for the purpose of receiving information regarding specific employees and to include the village board, the village administrator and legal counsel participating via Teams. The motion cited three statutory bases: §19.85(1)(c) (personnel matters), §19.85(1)(e) (deliberating or negotiating the purchase of public properties or investing public funds when competitive or bargaining reasons require confidentiality) and §19.85(1)(g) (conferencing with legal counsel about litigation strategy).
The meeting was called to order at 6:54 p.m.; the transcript shows the board moved directly into the closed session after the roll call. No further public discussion or decisions were recorded in the provided transcript excerpt.
