Spring Green board directs attorney to pursue order for dilapidated structures at 433 W Madison St

Following a closed-session discussion held under the litigation exemption, the Village of Spring Green Board of Trustees authorized the village attorney to proceed as discussed regarding dilapidated structures at 433 W Madison St and consideration of issuing an order under Wis. Stat. § 66.0413. Trustee David Saperstein moved the motion, Trustee Jeannie McCarville seconded, and the board approved the action by voice vote.

Saperstein also moved that Wendy Crary proceed as discussed in closed session; Trustee Deb Miller seconded that motion, which also carried. The minutes record the board's direction but do not quote the attorney or provide details of the closed-session discussion; the meeting report identifies the statutory basis for the closed session as Wis. Stat. § 19.85(1)(g).

The motions were taken after the board convened into closed session at 7:19 p.m. for a conference with legal counsel and reconvened to open session at 8:33 p.m. The minutes record the subsequent authorizations in open session but do not include a roll-call tally for the open-session motions, only that the motions carried.
