Finance committee approves disbursement record, authorizes settlements after closed session
Summary
After a closed session under "19.85 1 g," the Kenosha Finance Committee approved settlement recommendations for Walgreens Co. (Kenosha County Circuit Court case 25C v 520) and an agreement resolving a Jan. 28, 2025 breach notice with Syfy Networks Kenosha LLC; the committee also approved disbursement record number 11.
On July 7, 2025, the Kenosha Finance Committee approved a disbursement record and, following a closed session invoked under "19.85 1 g," authorized two settlement agreements: one involving Walgreen Co. (case cited as Kenosha County Circuit Court case number 25C v 520) and an agreement resolving a January 28, 2025 breach notice with Syfy Networks Kenosha LLC.
The clerk moved that the committee go into closed session under the statutory citation given in the transcript (recorded as "19.85 1 g"). The committee went into closed session and later returned to open session to take votes on the settlements. The clerk then moved to approve the recommendation to settle items 8 and 9, and members voted to approve each settlement recommendation.
The committee also approved disbursement record number 11 (transcript lists the amount in-line as "12832392Dollars15Cents"), with no questions from members.
Why it matters: settlement approvals conclude legal matters involving the city and have fiscal and legal implications; closed-session invocation indicates the matters were discussed under an exemption from open meetings law.
The committee approved the disbursement record and authorized the two settlement agreements; recorded votes on each motion were taken in open session after the closed-session discussion.
