Rupp Frustrated and Disappointed with Village of Belleville

Submitted by admin on Wed, 08/10/2022 - 7:45am

Dear Editor,
As a member of the American Legion Duppler-Smith post in Belleville, I am both frustrated and disappointed with the recent interactions between the post and the Village of Belleville to entertain a reasonable offer by the post to purchase the library building is most disappointing. The process and the outcome show a lack of respect for the work that the post does in the community and the military veterans who are part of the organization.

Open Meetings Complaint Filed Against Belleville

Submitted by admin on Wed, 08/10/2022 - 7:43am

A year ago, the Village of Belleville had its 6,300 square foot former library appraised at $210,000. This month, they sold it to a developer for a mere $20,000. That deal was worked out and agreed to in a series of closed meetings starting in May. Recently, Josh Russow, a concerned local citizen, filed an Open Meetings Law complaint against the Village, asking the Dane County District Attorney to charge the Village Board’s members with 10 separate violations for those illegal closed sessions.
