Board member Brian Nichols moved to approve the settlement, naming Bray Architects Inc., Corporate Contractors Inc., and PSI (Professional Service Industries Inc.) as defendants and stating the settlement amount: "I move to approve, the proposed settlement from the litigation against Bray Architects Inc, Corporate Contractors Inc, PSI, also known as Professional Service Industries Inc, in the amount of $105,000." Amy Levy seconded the motion and the board approved it unanimously.
Why it matters: The settlement resolves outstanding claims described in closed session and formalizes payment in the amount approved by the board. The board cited the statutory authority under Wisconsin Statutes §19.85 to consult with counsel in closed session before taking action in open session.
What was decided: The board approved the proposed settlement for $105,000 by unanimous vote; no further litigation strategy or payment schedule was discussed in open session during the Nov. 4 meeting.
Next steps: Administration will implement the board’s direction to finalize settlement documentation and related administrative steps. Additional details about settlement terms, allocation, or release language were not provided in open session and were not read into the record.
