Board votes to enter closed session to deliberate claims under state statute
Summary
The Board of Public Works voted to enter closed session under Wisconsin statute to deliberate on claims and proceeded to move into closed session.
At the close of its April 21 meeting the Board of Public Works voted to enter closed session "for the purpose of deliberating on claims," citing state law. A board member moved to go into closed session pursuant to Wisconsin statute; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote.
The transcript cites the statute as "Wisconsin Statute 19.851G" during the meeting; the board’s stated intent was to use the closed-session authority that allows deliberation on claims. The board left the public session to convene the closed session as recorded.
Because the board entered closed session, no further details about the claims or deliberations were recorded in the public transcript.
