Purpose

TO AMEND THE BYLAWS OF THE CAMPUS COMMISSION TO REMOVE THE REQUIREMENT THAT THE RESIDENT MEMBER LIVE OUTSIDE OF THE CITY OF BARABOO

Background

In 1966, Sauk County and the City of Baraboo jointly purchased certain real property which was improved and developed on a 50/50 basis to become the University of Wisconsin Baraboo/Sauk County (now the University of Wisconsin Platteville at Baraboo/Sauk County), and in 1969, the University of Wisconsin Baraboo/Sauk County Campus Commission was created and comprised of County and City representatives. The University of Wisconsin Baraboo/Sauk County Campus Commission is governed by bylaws. Due to the recent death of the resident member of the Campus Commission, it is necessary to appoint a new resident member.  The proposed resident member, Aural Umhoefer, is highly qualified to serve; however, she is a resident of the City of Baraboo. The proposed change removes the requirement that the resident member reside outside of the City of Baraboo and allows for the appointment of the most qualified interested resident member of the Campus Commission.
