Board logs routine motions: summons placed on file, notice of claims disallowed, adjournment set for Oct. 27 public hearing
Summary
During the Sept. 30 meeting the Milwaukee County Board approved routine administrative motions: received a listing of summons and complaints, disallowed a notice-of-claims listing after a rules suspension vote, adopted the Sept. 18 journal, and set the next meeting and budget public hearing dates.
The Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors handled several routine administrative items and procedural votes at its Sept. 30 meeting, taking actions that largely received unanimous voice votes.
Supervisor Shea moved that the listing of summons and complaints be received and placed on file; the motion carried by voice vote and the clerk so recorded the item as received and placed on file.
On a separate item, Supervisors granted Supervisor Shea's request for unanimous consent to suspend rules related to a hearing objection; the board then disallowed the Sept. 30 listing of notice of claims.
Other routine actions adopted by voice vote included referring listed files to standing committees, receiving files not referred to committees, adopting the Sept. 18 journal of proceedings, and adopting the listing of county board certificates and citations.
The Board approved a motion by Supervisor Shea to adjourn and reconvene for the public hearing on the 2026 recommended budget at the Mitchell Park Domes on Monday, Oct. 27; doors open at 5 p.m. and supervisors will convene at 6 p.m. The board also confirmed its plan to consider budget adoption at the annual meeting on Thursday, Nov. 6 at 9:30 a.m., with a possible Nov. 13 meeting to consider vetoes if necessary.
No roll-call vote tallies or seconders were recorded in the transcript; all recorded actions were taken by voice vote as reflected in the meeting minutes.
