The discussion comes on the heels of allegations a week ago that Dimitrijevic had been engaged in negotiating with a decertified county employee union. Such an act is unlawful under terms in Gov. Scott Walker's Act 10 legislation. Although emails were exchanged with union officials, Dimitrijevic adamantly denies actual negotiation talks had been taking place. But other supervisors are maintaining a different perspective and are asking Dimitrijevic to relinquish her leadership role. A week ago, four supervisors – Deanna Alexander, Mark Borkowski, Steve Taylor and John Weishan Jr. – went public with their request of the chairwoman. On Monday, Jim "Luigi" Schmitt signed on, as well. Twelve of the 18 supervisors would need to sign off on the plan for Dimitrijevic to be formally removed from her leadership role on the board. Alexander, Borkowski and Taylor held a joint news conference Monday, explaining ClipNSave why they would like Dimitrijevic to step aside. "What we're going to have to do is go to our colleagues in the next week or so, one on one, or two on one," Taylor said. "I think you're going to see a momentum going in our direction." Dimitrijevic Alexander has been especially vocal in her opposition of Dimitrijevic.
