“I’m very proud of the fact that we’re debating and we’re talking about this important issue tonight,” Weigand said.
Some 80 people spoke on the matter. Health care workers rallied against the resolution, recounting their experiences caring for patients with COVID-19. Those speaking in favor of the masking challenge included business owners who said their employees shouldn’t be deputized into enforcing the rule among customers. Other speakers denied the existence of the virus and questioned the efficacy of masks. [emphasis added]
Jeff is proud to waste everyone's time while this is happening.

New cases in Dane County are up 83% over the previous week. #MaskUp.

Sups. Jeff Weigand, 20th District, and Tim Rockwell, 19th District, announced late Monday night their plan to host the public meeting at 6 p.m. Dec. 13 in the town of Berry Town Hall at 9046 Highway 19 in Mazomanie. The goal is for residents to voice concerns about the mask mandate.
Guess the inconveniently located Berry Town Hall is the only place where they could book this clown show.

The infection rate among children in Dane County remains high, with about 46 cases per 100,000 children ages 5-7, and 48 cases per 100,000 children ages 8-11. Those are nearly three times higher than the rate for adults ages 50-59, or 17 cases per 100,000.

But Weigand has separately requested that his resolution get pulled out of committee and onto the County Board floor, a rare procedural move. Even if Weigand is successful in getting a debate for his proposal, the resolution is unlikely to pass the overwhelmingly liberal County Board.
You don't have to be 'overwhelmingly liberal' to prioritize public health protocols during a pandemic.
Best,

Wisconsin State Journal, 9/14/2021
Weigand’s resolution isn’t on any county committee agendas this week, and it’s unclear when or if it will be considered.
The resolution has been referred to the Dane County Board’s Executive Committee and Personnel and Finance Committee, but the rejection from the Board of Health makes it less likely that the resolution will get taken up. Committee chairs, who determine agendas, could decide against putting the resolution on the calendar given the unanimous opposition from the Board of Health.

Weigand, the District 20 supervisor, told the Cap Times Monday that the public and elected officials should weigh in on the decisions behind mandates. He said that local public health officials should advise elected leaders, who will make the final decision.
“I’m simply hoping for the issue to be deliberated on and decided by the county board,” Weigand said. “The issue needs to be voted on by elected officials.”
The resolution was referred to the Board of Health for Madison and Dane County, the Personnel and Finance Committee and the Executive Committee.
Dane County Board Chair Analiese Eicher told the Cap Times Monday that the resolution is “injecting unnecessary politicization into a very real public health crisis that is impacting our lives in so many ways.”
