Commission reviewed three patrol officer backgrounds in closed session; two withdrew, one continued
Summary
Under authority of Wisconsin Statutes §19.85 the commission met in closed session to review three patrol officer candidate backgrounds; two candidates voluntarily removed themselves after accepting other jobs and a third remained in the hiring process; the commission confirmed the closed-session report on returning to open session.
The Green Bay Police and Fire Commission convened a closed session on Dec. 4 under Wisconsin Statutes section 19.85 to consider personnel matters related to patrol officer candidate backgrounds.
The commission reported that it reviewed three candidates in the closed session. Two candidates voluntarily withdrew after accepting positions with other jurisdictions; the commission continued the hiring process for a third candidate. After the closed-session review the commission reconvened in open session and recorded a motion to confirm the report; that motion was moved by Commissioner Sherman and seconded by Commissioner Cobb, and the motion passed by voice vote.
The meeting notice in the public record cited Wis. Stat. §19.85 as authority to consider employment, promotion, compensation, or performance evaluation data for public employees in closed session and stated the commission would reconvene in open session to report results.
No additional details about the candidates or specific background findings were provided in the public transcript.
