Summary
The Special Village Board voted 6-0 to enter closed session at 8:07 a.m. under Wisconsin Statutes 19.85(1)(c) to consider employment and performance-evaluation matters concerning the Fire Department. The board returned to open session at 9:18 a.m. and later adjourned.
The Special Village Board voted 6-0 Tuesday to go into a closed session to consider employment and performance-evaluation data of a Fire Department employee under Wisconsin Statutes 19.85(1)(c). The motion was made at 8:07 a.m. by Member Justin Martinez and seconded by Member Jim Marx; the minutes record roll call votes of Forseth, Westerlund, Peterson, Marx, Martinez and Schlamp as 'aye.'
The closed session motion cited Wis. Stat. 19.85(1)(c), which permits closed deliberation when the board considers matters involving the performance or compensation of individual public employees. The minutes do not disclose details of the discussion held in closed session.
The board moved back into open session at 9:18 a.m. after a motion by Member Karen Peterson, seconded by Marx; that motion also carried unanimously. No public comment was recorded for the meeting, and the board later adjourned at 9:21 a.m.
Actions recorded in the meeting minutes show the board followed statutory procedure for a personnel-related closed session: a motion with a second, a roll call vote recorded on the public minutes, and a subsequent motion to return to open session. No formal personnel action is noted in the public minutes.
