The Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors held a hybrid meeting on June 26, 2025, where a significant discussion centered around a motion to reject a specific item that had previously resulted in a tie vote during the finance committee. The item was brought forward for consideration after a lack of recommendation due to the tie, which was attributed to one member's absence.

Supervisor Alexander initiated the motion for rejection, emphasizing the importance of sending a clear message regarding the board's stance on the matter. The board members engaged in a detailed discussion about the voting process, clarifying that a vote in favor of rejection would indicate a firm disapproval of the item, while a vote against rejection would imply support for its passage.

During the roll call vote, the motion to reject the item ultimately passed with a tally of 10 votes in favor and 7 against, resulting in the failure of the item. This outcome reflects the board's collective decision to not move forward with the proposal.

Following the vote, the chairwoman called for a short recess before transitioning to the next part of the meeting, which was to be conducted virtually. The meeting concluded with a quorum established for the subsequent discussions.
