Park commission meets in closed session to discuss property acquisition
Summary
The Dane County Park Commission moved into closed session under Wisconsin Statute 19.85(1)(e) to deliberate negotiating or purchasing property and returned to open session before adjourning.
The commission voted to enter closed session for the purpose of deliberating negotiation and purchase of property, citing Wisconsin Statute 19.85(1)(e) as the authority for closing to the public. The chair explained that open discussion of bargaining positions and strategies would harm the public's interest in obtaining property if disclosed publicly.
After the closed-door discussion, the commission reconvened in open session and immediately moved to adjourn. No substantive details of the closed session were disclosed during the open meeting.
