Spring Green board adopts library tax exemption request and Sauk County Hazard Mitigation Plan

At its Sept. 10 meeting the Village of Spring Green Board of Trustees adopted two resolutions: R-2505, a request for exemption from the Sauk County library tax, and R-2506, adopting the Sauk County Hazard Mitigation Plan for 2025–2029.

Trustee David Saperstein moved to adopt Resolution R-2505, the request for exemption from the county library tax; Trustee Jean‑Claude Bédard seconded. The motion passed on a voice vote.

Trustee Damian Barta moved to approve Resolution R-2506, the Sauk County Hazard Mitigation Plan: 2025–2029; Trustee Deb Miller seconded. The board approved the resolution by voice vote.

The two resolutions were listed on the meeting agenda under New Business and were adopted without recorded roll-call tallies in the public minutes. The record shows no amendments or abstentions for either motion.

The adoption of the hazard mitigation plan integrates Spring Green into Sauk County’s multi‑jurisdictional strategy for managing natural hazards through 2029. The library tax exemption request, if accepted at the county level, would alter how the village participates in countywide library funding; the resolution submitted is the village’s formal request and does not itself change county policy.

Next procedural steps were not specified in the minutes. The board moved on to other agenda items after the votes.
