Votes at a glance: Hortonville trustees approve consent agenda, accept dump-truck repair invoice, appoint Shauna Moller and enter closed session
Summary
At the Aug. 21 Village of Hortonville meeting trustees approved the consent agenda, accepted a higher-than-expected dump-truck repair invoice, appointed Shauna Moller, and voted to enter closed session under Wisconsin Statute 19.85(1)(c).
Several formal actions were recorded during the Village of Hortonville Board of Trustees meeting on Aug. 21.
Consent agenda The board approved the consent agenda, which included the minutes for the Aug. 7 regular meeting and presentation of accounts and claims against the village. A trustee made a motion to approve the items on the consent agenda and the motion carried by roll call.
Packer City / dump truck repair invoice Public works staff reported the village’s dump truck had brake problems; once the truck was opened up, additional work was needed and the total repair cost exceeded $5,000. Trustees moved to accept the invoice for the repair (the packet and meeting audio indicate the final cost exceeded $5,000; an exact line-item amount as read at the microphone was not clearly captured in the transcript). The motion to accept the invoice was seconded and carried by roll call.
Appointment Trustee moved to appoint Shauna Moller (motion made on the record), and the appointment was seconded and approved by voice vote: “All in favor? Aye. Opposed? Motion carried.”
Closed session A trustee moved to go into closed session under Wisconsin Statute 19.85(1)(c) (considering employment, promotion, compensation or performance evaluation data of any public employee over which the governmental body has jurisdiction). The motion was seconded and carried on roll call.
Votes and tallies (as recorded in the meeting) - Consent agenda: motion carried (individual roll-call names not specified in the transcript). - Dump-truck invoice: motion carried (final amount stated in discussion as exceeding $5,000; transcript figures were unclear). - Appointment of Shauna Moller: motion carried by voice vote (unanimous in favor as recorded). - Motion to enter closed session under Wis. Stat. 19.85(1)(c): motion carried on roll call.
Where the transcript did not capture full roll-call individual votes, this summary reports outcomes and available tallies. Trustees instructed staff to proceed with necessary follow-up tasks tied to each action (accounts processing, invoice payment, personnel matters to be discussed in closed session).
