Chippewa Falls school board approves agendas, votes to enter executive session

The Chippewa Falls Area Unified School District Board approved its regular agenda and executive-session agenda and then voted to convene in executive session to discuss prior closed-session minutes, a specific employment action concerning individual employees, a transportation contract and legal litigation matters with legal counsel.

At the start of the meeting the chair called roll and confirmed a quorum of seven members. The chair stated, "All right. We do have a quorum." Dennis Fear moved to approve the agenda as presented; Steve Olsson seconded. The motion carried on a voice vote and the board approved the agenda.

The board then considered the executive-session agenda. Megan McKillip moved to approve the executive-session agenda; Dennis Fear seconded. The board approved the executive-session agenda as presented.

Later, McKillip moved, and Olsson seconded, a motion "to move to executive session pursuant to section 19.851 851 CF and/or G of the Wisconsin state statutes" to address prior closed-session minutes, review a specific employment action concerning individual employees, consider a transportation contract and discuss legal litigation matters and related advice of legal counsel. A roll call was conducted and the motion carried; the board entered executive session.

The record in the transcript lists the topics to be discussed in executive session but does not provide further detail about the personnel matter, the transportation contract or pending litigation. The meeting record shows members present by roll call earlier in the session but does not include detailed public vote tallies for the executive-session motion in the transcript excerpt.
