Votes at a glance: board approves borrowing resolution, several routine items; tables Phase 1 sustainability approval
Summary
On Jan. 27 the Middleton‑Cross Plains Area School District Board approved routine minutes and consent items, enacted a resolution authorizing borrowing up to $10,485,000 for sustainability financing, approved supervisor and SRO contracts and the open‑enrollment plan, and sent the Phase 1 sustainability project back for more detail.
At its Jan. 27 meeting the Middleton‑Cross Plains Area School District Board took the following formal actions:
- Approval of minutes for Jan. 13, 2025 regular meeting and closed session — motion passed by voice vote.
- Consent agenda (bills payable; treasurer's report; resignations, appointments and retirements) — motion passed by voice vote.
- Approval of the 2025–26 supervisor contracts — motion passed by voice vote.
- Approval of 2025–26 school resource officer (SRO) contracts with the Village of Cross Plains and the City of Middleton Police Department — motion passed by voice vote.
- Approval of the 2025–26 open enrollment plan, with small seat adjustments and a changed sibling preference to a preference category — motion passed by voice vote.
- Motion to table approval of Phase 1 Sustainability Project and Funding (agenda item 9A) — motion to table was moved by Trustee Bob Green and passed on a roll‑call vote; staff will return with additional financial detail and cost breakouts.
- Resolution authorizing borrowing not to exceed $10,485,000 (agenda item 9B) — motion to approve was made and seconded; the board approved the resolution. That action initiates a 30‑day petition period under state law; if 7,500 valid signatures are submitted the borrowing would be placed on a public referendum.
- Motion to enter closed session under Wisconsin Statute 19.81(1)(c) for superintendent evaluation — the motion passed on a roll‑call vote.
Several votes were by voice vote; two items (table motion on Phase 1 and the subsequent borrowing resolution) used roll calls or recorded outcomes recorded in the transcript. Where roll‑call tallies were recorded in the minutes, the table motion passed and the borrowing resolution passed.
