Hobart board holds closed session on Tribal Affairs litigation strategy, reconvenes with no action
Summary
The Hobart Village Board went into closed session under Wis. Stat. § 19.85(1)(g) to confer with legal counsel about potential litigation related to Tribal Affairs; the board reconvened with no action resulting from the closed session.
The Village Board recessed at 7:11 p.m. and entered closed session at 7:26 p.m. under Wisconsin Statute 19.85(1)(g) to confer with legal counsel regarding strategy related to potential litigation described as 'Tribal Affairs.' The motion to enter closed session passed on a roll-call vote 5-0 (motion by Rich Heidel; second by David Dillenburg).
The board reconvened in open session at 8:10 p.m. by roll-call vote, and the minutes record no formal action resulting from the closed session. The meeting adjourned at 8:11 p.m.
Earlier in the meeting, a member of the public, Chris Lani, addressed 'Tribal Affairs' during the public-comment period; the closed session entry in the minutes lists Tribal Affairs as the subject for attorney consultation and strategy discussion. The minutes do not provide details of the legal discussion, consistent with the confidential nature of statutory closed sessions.
