Summary

Following a closed session, the council approved a memorandum of understanding with the New Berlin Professional Police Association, approved a stipulation dismissing city litigation against Workman Meadows LLC and Certified Products 2 LLC, and denied two claims referenced in the agenda; all actions were approved unanimously.

After convening in closed session to discuss labor negotiations, litigation and personnel matters, the New Berlin Common Council returned to open session and took four public actions on Dec. 10.

The council approved a memorandum of understanding (MOU) between the City of New Berlin and the New Berlin Professional Police Association by motion and unanimous voice vote. The transcript records that the MOU had been discussed in closed session and that the council moved to approve it upon return to open session.

The council also considered and voted to deny a claim described in the transcript as a 'worth claim' (agenda reference) and later voted to deny a claim referred to as the 'Klein claim.' Both motions to deny those claims were moved, seconded and approved unanimously.

In addition, the council approved a stipulation in order for dismissal in the litigation identified as City of New Berlin v. Workman Meadows LLC and Certified Products 2 LLC based on the city attorney—9s description; the council voted to approve that stipulation unanimously.

All post-closed-session actions were recorded as approved without dissent in the public transcript. The clerk read the statutory bases for closed-session discussion on the agenda (transcript cites section identifiers of Wisconsin statutes). The council then adjourned at about 8:55 p.m.
