Bloomington board approves wage increases for village and library employees after closed session
Summary
After meeting in closed session under Wisconsin Statute 19.85 to discuss personnel matters, the Village Board reconvened and approved wage increases for village and library staff; the minutes do not disclose the specific amounts.
The Village Board entered a closed session Oct. 6 under Wisconsin Statute 19.85 to consider employment, promotion, compensation or performance evaluation of public employees. Trustees reconvened afterward and approved wage increases for village and library employees based on recommendations made during the closed session.
Village President Robert McLimans moved to go into closed session and Trustee Dennis Moris seconded the motion; the board voted to enter closed session. After returning to open session, the board approved the wage increases on a motion by McLimans, seconded by Scott Daentl. The minutes record that all were in favor. The board did not disclose specific adjustment amounts in the open meeting minutes.
Clerk/Treasurer Shawna Atterbury earlier told trustees that wages were one of the remaining outstanding items in the budget and would be discussed in closed session; the board approved the overall budget timeline and must finalize the budget before Nov. 3 to meet county and newspaper publication deadlines.
Because specific wage figures were discussed in closed session and not listed in the public minutes, the record states only that wage increases were approved; trustees directed staff to implement the recommendation.
