Hudson board votes to accept offer on district office, convenes closed session under Wis. Stat. 19.85(1)(e)
Summary
After public business the board moved and voted to convene in closed session under Wisconsin Statute 19.85(1)(e) to deliberate sale of public property, then approved an offer of $1.8 million for the district office at 644 Brockie Drive in roll-call votes recorded as unanimous 'Aye.'
At the end of the public meeting the board approved a motion to convene in closed session under Wisconsin Statute 19.85(1)(e) "to deliberate or negotiate the sale of public property." The motion was moved by a board member identified as speaker 5 and seconded by speaker 2; a roll call recorded "Aye" votes from trustees listed on the roll.
After moving into closed session the board considered an offer for the district office located at 644 Brockie Drive. The board approved accepting an offer at a price of $1,800,000 and authorized the appropriate offer agreement; the motion carried on a roll-call vote with the trustees recorded as voting "Aye" (names read into the record during roll call included Dahl, Garza, Gerlach, Bowers, Rozowski, Rudy and Baumann).
Why it matters: board approval to negotiate or accept a sale of district-owned property is a formal action with budgetary and operational consequences. The board acted in public to move into closed session under the cited statutory exception for negotiating the sale of public property, then returned with a recorded approval of a specific offer.
What’s next: the board adjourned after the closed-session actions. Any finalized sale documents or public disclosures about the disposition of the property will follow the district’s standard notification and record-keeping processes.
