Board votes to adjourn into closed session on superintendent evaluation, property negotiations and potential litigation
Summary
The board moved and approved a motion to convene in closed session under Wisconsin Statute 19.85(1)(c), (e) and (g) to discuss superintendent evaluation, real‑property negotiations and legal strategy; a recorded roll call showed ayes from the trustees present.
At the end of the March 10 work session, a trustee moved that the board adjourn into closed session under Wisconsin Statute 19.85(1)(c), (e) and (g) to discuss the superintendent’s performance evaluation, real‑property negotiation and potential litigation strategy. A second was recorded, and board members voted in favor by roll call.
Recorded roll call: Several trustees publicly registered their votes in favor during the roll call sequence shown in the meeting record (attestations included Becker, Lierly, Mills, Gerlach, Crossan and Lee). The motion carried and the board proceeded to closed session.
Why it matters: The items identified for closed session — personnel evaluation, property negotiations with the villages and litigation strategy — are among the categories enumerated in Wisconsin open‑meeting law that permit a closed session.
Sources and evidence: formal motion read on the record, second, and roll call vote recorded in the transcript.
