Seymour council approves temporary licensed-premises expansion, liquor licenses, plan commission appointment and police union contract
Summary
The Seymour Common Council on June 23 approved Ordinance OR 2025-104 allowing temporary expansion of licensed premises, passed Resolution RE 2025-161 approving 2025-2026 liquor licenses, confirmed a Plan Commission appointment under RE 2025-162, and, after closed session, approved a collective bargaining agreement with the Seymour Professional Police Association (RE 2025-164).
The Seymour Common Council on June 23 approved an ordinance creating a temporary expansion for licensed premises and took a series of additional administrative actions, including approval of liquor licenses and a Plan Commission appointment.
Ordinance NO OR 2025-104, titled "Temporary Expansion of Licensed Premises," was introduced and approved after Alderperson Gerbers moved to waive the formal reading and approve both the first and second readings; Alderperson Hurkman seconded and the motion carried. The ordinance creates Section 46-5; the transcript records the ordinance title but does not specify implementation details or effective dates.
The council also approved Resolution NO RE 2025-161 covering liquor licenses for 2025–2026. Alderperson Gerbers moved to approve the resolution and Alderperson Hurkman seconded; the motion carried. The transcript does not list individual licensees or a roll-call vote tally.
Under another administrative item, Resolution NO RE 2025-162 to appoint a member to the Plan Commission was approved on a motion by Alderperson Krull and a second by Alderperson Schaumberg; the motion carried. The transcript records the action but does not specify the appointee's name.
Later in the meeting the council voted to enter a closed session under Wisconsin Statutes section 19.85(1)(c) to consider employment and compensation matters, including the collective bargaining agreement with the Seymour Professional Police Association and a review of the City Administrator employment agreement. After reconvening to open session, the council approved Resolution NO RE 2025-164, the collective bargaining agreement with the Seymour Professional Police Association; Alderperson Gerbers moved for approval and Alderperson Krull seconded. Contract terms and any fiscal impacts were not disclosed in the transcript.
Procedural motions to approve the meeting agenda and minutes were recorded at the outset: Alderperson Krull moved to approve the agenda (Schaumberg seconded) with an amendment moving Resolutions 2025-164 and 2025-165 to post-closed-session action, and Alderperson Schaumberg moved to approve the June 9, 2025 minutes (Krull seconded); both motions carried. The meeting adjourned on a motion by Alderperson Gerbers with Alderperson Hurkman seconding. Clerk-Treasurer Christy Stover signed the meeting record.
What the record does not show: the transcript records "motion carried" for each approval but does not include roll-call vote tallies, individual liquor licensee names, the identity of the Plan Commission appointee, or the financial or term details of the approved police collective bargaining agreement. Those specifics were not specified in the provided transcript.
