Oak Creek approves agreement with Amenshein Park Beer Garden LLC after closed session

After convening into closed session under Wisconsin Statute §19.85(1)(e) to discuss potential terms for a public‑funds investment with a private operator, the Oak Creek Common Council returned to open session on Dec. 2 and approved an agreement with Amenshein Park Beer Garden LLC.

The council moved to approve the agreement following the closed-session discussion; the motion was seconded and approved by roll call. The transcript records variant spellings of the business name (e.g., Abenshein/Amenshein) in different places. The agreement’s specific financial terms and any conditions were discussed in closed session and are not detailed in the open‑session record.

President Gell led the roll call votes related to convening the closed session earlier in the meeting. The council’s open-session action authorized the agreement as presented; staff indicated no further immediate action was required on the item at the meeting.
