Summary

At its March 3 meeting the Finance, Personnel & Safety Committee approved vouchers, the Police Chief's report and a Remote Work Policy, voted to ask the City Attorney about the Dave Haase matter, and authorized a closed session under Wis. Stats. 19.85(1)(c).

The Chairperson, Mayor Rich Slate, called the Finance, Personnel & Safety Committee meeting to order at 6:09 p.m. The committee recorded Clint Lager, Pat Prill, Rich Slate and Dennis Treimstra as present, with Joseph Kazda attending as a council member.

The committee recorded a series of routine approvals. "Motion by Dennis/Joseph to approve vouchers payable. Motion carried," the minutes state. The Police Chief's report and a Remote Work Policy were also approved; those motions are recorded as carried. The transcript does not include the substance of the Police Chief's report or the text of the Remote Work Policy, so those details are not specified.

Pat Prill moved, seconded by Joseph Kazda, "to contact the City Attorney and request guidance for the City Council regarding how to address the Dave Haase matter," a motion the minutes record as carried. The committee then voted to convene a closed session under Wis. Stats. 19.85(1)(c) "to consider the employment over which the governmental body has jurisdiction or exercises responsibility," with an immediate return to open session and adjournment under Wis. Stats. 19.85(2). The roll-call motion passed by unanimous consent.

The meeting adjourned at 6:39 p.m. The minutes are signed by Chairperson Rich Slate (the transcript contains a typographic error in the clerk's signature line that reads "Rich Set Shat").
