Thorp council goes into closed session over 2023 pay rates; reconvenes with no action
Summary
The council voted to enter closed session under Wis. Stat. §19.85 to discuss litigation strategy and 2023 pay rates for listed employees; it later reconvened in open session and took no action.
At its Oct. 10 meeting the Thorp City Council voted unanimously to enter closed session under Wis. Stat. §19.85(1)(g) to confer with legal counsel on litigation strategy and §19.85(1)(c) to consider employment, promotion, compensation or performance data of public employees. The motion to enter closed session was moved by Alderperson Lawcewicz and seconded by Alderperson Einhorn; the motion passed 5-0.
The agenda item specifically listed consideration of 2023 pay rates for named employees including Brent Leech, Eric Shackleton, Jacob Wissell, Loren Gulcynski, Ty Schneider, Michele Pogodzinski, Bre Krug, Ronald Rogalski, election officials, and temporary employees. The council later reconvened in open session on a motion by Einhorn, seconded by Lawcewicz; the motion passed 5-0. No formal action or vote on pay rates was recorded in the meeting minutes.
Because the discussion occurred in closed session, the minutes state only that the council reviewed the matters and took no action upon reconvening.
