Delafield council meets in closed session over police personnel matter, reconvenes with no action
Summary
The City of Delafield council convened a closed session Dec. 1 under Wisconsin statutes §19.85(1)(c) and (f) to discuss a sensitive personnel matter involving a Delafield police officer; the council reconvened to open session and recorded no action following the closed meeting.
The City of Delafield Common Council on Dec. 1, 2025 voted to convene a closed session under Wisconsin Statutes §19.85(1)(c) and (f) to discuss employment and personnel issues involving city administration and a specific Delafield police officer. The motion to enter closed session was moved and seconded; a roll-call vote recorded 'Aye' from all members, and the body left the livestream for the closed portion of the meeting.
The council later returned to open session after the closed meeting. A motion to reconvene carried on a roll call vote; the mayor stated there was "no discussion or action following that closed session." No details of personnel deliberations were disclosed in the public record during the meeting.
The council cited the statutory bases it read into the record when taking the closed session—Wis. Stat. §19.85(1)(c) for consideration of compensation, promotion, performance evaluation, and §19.85(1)(f) for consideration of personal histories or disciplinary matters. No formal disciplinary action or personnel decision was announced on the public agenda following reconvening.
