Summary

The Oneida County Executive Committee met in closed session under Wisconsin Statute §19.85(1)(e) to discuss the Koinonia lease, returned to open session with no motions or actions taken, and tabled the Koinonia project request list to a future agenda.

At its April 22 meeting, the Oneida County Executive Committee voted to enter a closed session to deliberate and negotiate a lease related to a project described as "Koinonia," citing Wisconsin Statute §19.85(1)(e) as the authority for a closed session.

The committee took a roll call vote to go into closed session and later took a roll call vote to return to open session. Chairman Billy Fried announced that while in closed session no motions were made and no action was taken. Immediately after returning to open session, the committee voted to table the Koinonia project request list and move it to a future agenda.

The minutes do not record any substantive details of the lease discussion (the committee acted under the closed-session exemption), and committee members did not announce any negotiated decisions when they reconvened. The motion to table the project list was made by Chairman Fried and seconded by Supervisor Scott Holewinski and passed unanimously.

Because the deliberations occurred under the statutory closed‑session exemption, the committee limited public disclosure to the fact that it met, that no motions were made in closed session, and that the Koinonia project request list has been tabled for future consideration.
