Richard Hedlund, Lake Gene-
vas newest alderman, said he
during the next ve months he
wants to kick the tires and take
a test spin of his seat on the city
council.
If it all works out, he said, he
may run for election in spring.
Mayor Jim Connors broke
a 3 to 3 tie on the city council to
appoint Hedlund.
He has a very strong nancial
background, Connors said. And
its good to get some new blood in
this organization.
Hedlund, 368 S. Stone Ridge
Drive, the former of owner of a
General Motors- Buick-Pontiac
dealership in Lake Geneva, was
selected by the city council to ful-
ll the term of the late Sturges
Taggart.
The council vote was 4 to 3,
with Mayor Jim Connors breaking
the councils tie between Hedlund
and former alderman Bill Mott.
Hedlund now runs McHenry
County Investment Services Inc.,
a service of McHenry Savings
Bank, McHenry, Ill.
Hes been with McHenry
County Investment Services for
seven years.
Called at his McHenry ofce,
Hedlund said he considered run-
ning for District 3 alderman in
the 2014 municipal election, but
he pulled back when he saw that
Bob Kordus was running.
He said he thought Kordus
was a good t on the council.
But when the council asked
for resumes from those interested
in lling the vacant District 3
seat, Hedlund said he decided to
submit his application.
I thought I could give it a shot
and Id try it, he said. I think I
can help the city.
Hedlunds rst city council
meeting as a member was Oct. 22.
During the meeting, coun-
cil members debated a projected
$66,000 shortfall between the
proposed city general fund budget
and anticipated revenues.
Hedlund said he didnt intend
to get drawn into the discussion,
but he said he had to speak up
when a council member said city
employees didnt need a pay raise.
Hedlund said he was against
across-the-board wage increases,
but people who do a good job
deserve a raise.

Parking nes may take a
bigger bite out of tardy motor-

see the cost of their beach passes
increase from free to $3 per beach
pass per season under a budget
proposal reviewed and approved
by the Lake Geneva City Council
on Monday
The public hearing on the
budget will be 5 p.m. Nov. 17.
Meanwhile, raises for full-
time city employees will amount
to no more than 1.5 percent over
last year.
The council convened in a
special session Oct. 22 to review
the proposed 2015 budget. The
spending plan was shaped during
a series of workshops and special
meetings.
The proposed city general
fund budget is $8.3 million.
But at the bottom line, the
proposal was still out of balance
by $66,422.
City Administrator Dennis
Jordan told council members
at the Oct. 22 meeting that
the department heads were
instructed to hold budget pro-
posals to a zero increase this year.
We had cut everything to
acceptable levels to keep the ser-
vices we have, said Jordan.
Jordan also said that the city
administration was considering a
2 percent raise for employees in
2015, which would cost another
$100,000.
Expenses have gone up, said
Alderman Dennis Lyon, who
chairs the nance committee.

With no discussion and a
quick, unanimous vote, the Lake
Geneva City Council on Monday
cleared away the downtown color
barrier.
The citys downtown zoning
ordinance which dated from the
middle 1990s, banned primary
colors, dened as red, blue, green
and yellow, from the downtown.
The city council of nearly 20
years ago approved the downtown
color code to preserve its historic
look and prevent any garish out-
siders from gaining access.
When the new Bricks & Mortar
store at 222 Center St., rst
opened, its facade was painted a
demur shade of light gray.
But strikingly red doors and
awnings accented the otherwise
subdued color scheme.
Most observers said the com-
bination was pleasing to the eye.
It was not, however, pleasing
to the citys zoning ordinance.
The offending doors and
awnings have been shrouded in
gray cloth awaiting the citys deci-
sion on its old color restrictions..
Meanwhile, the original Brick
& Mortar faade had some strong
supporters who went before the
pan commission.
They wanted to see that red
again.
During the September plan
commission meeting, City Planner
Michael Slavney of Vandewalle &
Associates, Madison, said his staff
reviewed nearly 8,000 shades of
red, blue, yellow and green.
In his rewrite of the zoning
ordinance, he rst struck the term
primary colors, because they
were not adequately dened.
Slavney adapted the PAN-
TONE Process Color System
Guide to provide a chromatic ref-
erence for allowed and forbidden
colors for the zoning administra-
tor to follow.

Pie High opens second location
in crowded Lake Geneva market
Thin crust za joins LG pizza scene
By Edwin Scherzer
For Lake Geneva Regional News
The pizza business in Lake
Geneva is about as crowded as
Main Street during any weekend
festival.
When you consider local
favorites, major national chains
in town, take and bake concepts
within driving distance, its not
easy for a newcomer trying to get
a piece of the pie.
Pie High Pizza owner John
Karabas apparently hasnt
noticed or if he has, he doesnt
sound like hes concerned.
I have never really worried
about major chains or really any
other restaurant for that matter,
he said. My dad told me a long
time ago that if you pay close
attention to what you are doing,
you wont have to worry about
the other guys.
Born in DesPlaines, Ill.,
and transplanted to Wisconsin,
Karabas, 54, knows a thing or
two about pizza and the restau-
rant business.
Karabas, a 1983 Carthage
graduate, has worked in the
industry for more than 30 years,
and owned four pizza stores
in Chicago under the name of
Tomato Head Pizza Kitchen.
Karabas sold all of them in
2008 and moved to his summer
cottage in Williams Bay.
The family decided to stay
in Williams Bay until 2010 then
moved to Fontana. Following the
move, Karabas opened Pie High
Pizza.
The restaurant serves pizza,
calzones, salads and more and
was an instant hit with their thin
crust recipe. Opening the second
location this summer in Lake
Geneva, 820 Williams St., was
prompted out of a need Karabas
recognized.
We were getting a lot of calls
to our Fontana store for deliver-
ies into Lake Geneva which we
could do from there, Karabas
said.
To be sure, Karabas has been
successful, in a timeframe where
the economy wasnt the greatest
and in an industry with tough
competition.
The restaurateur also recog-
nizes, if he wanted to just make
money he could have stayed in
the Windy City where volume of
sales is greater, and operating
hours are longer.
When asked if he would stay
with only two locations this time
around, Karabas said, he didnt
have an answer for that.
Im not sure if two restau-
rants are enough, when I sold
my stores down in Chicago I
never thought I would get into
the business again, but God had
other plans for me, he said.
Pie High Pizzas owner is also
a dedicated family guy, spending
whatever spare time he has with
his wife and three children.
Family plays an important
role, which is apparent by just
visiting the company website
where Karabas has posted a per-
manent dedication to his brother
Pete, who passed away at age 39
from cancer.
Two decades have passed
since his first pizza restaurant
opened, and things are different
this time.
In Chicago I was focused on
only one thing and that was to
make money, this time around
its more about the people I am
able to hire and the relationships
I have with them and commu-
nity, Karabas said.

LAKE GENEVA AREA NEWS

The annual census of
boats on Geneva Lake seems
to show that boaters had a
few more square feet of ves-
sel-free surface water to play
on this year.
For the third year in a
row, the number of boats and
vessels on Geneva
Lake has declined.
But this year,
the decline was very
noticeable.
The total
number of boats
counted for 2014
was 4,769, down
398, about 7.7 per-
cent, from last
years total of 5,167,
according to the
boat census report from the
Geneva Lake Environmental
Agency.
This years count resulted
in the lowest number of boats
counted since 1998 when
4,764 boats were counted,
according to the boat census
report.
And last years total was
18 below the year before that.
The decline in boats on the
lake started in 2012 when its
total of 5,185 was 46 boats
lower than the 2011 census.
The GLEA and the
Geneva Lake Water Safety
Patrol conduct an annual
boat census usually in late
August or early September.
Geneva Lake covers
5,280 acres. In the past, the
count has come close to, but
never quite reached, one boat
per acre of lake surface.
The numbers from this
years count is also the lowest
census in the past seven
years. The last time the
census was less than 5,000
was 2008, when 4,920 boats
were counted.
The boat census invento-
ries all boats docked, moored
on the lake and stored in off-
lake sites.
Ted Peters, GLEA direc-
tor, said the counters do
not tally boats on the lake
because of the risk of double
counting.
According to
the GLEA, the on-
lake count was done
Aug. 28. Boats in
dry storage were
counted Sept. 1 and
2.
Boats are cat-
egorized into four
groups, motor, sail,
and personal water
craft and other.
Personal watercraft
includes Jet Skis and Wave
Runners. Other includes
kayaks, canoes, rowboats
paddle boards and miscella-
neous.
Motorboats again
accounted for the largest
type of boats at 3,115 boats
or 65 percent of all boats. The
second largest group of boats
were the other with 722 or
15 percent of the boats. Per-
sonal watercraft accounted
for 612 crafts (13 percent)
and sailboats had a count of
320 (7 percent).
Usually, the boat coun-
ters are out when the weather
is cold or rainy and few boats
on the lake, Peters said. The
lower number recorded this
year may in part be due to the
good weather at the time of
the count resulting in more
boats out on the lake than
during past years when the
count was done in cool wet
weather.
However, the boat
census report noted that the
number of empty slips and
buoys, seen this past season,
seemed to indicate that there
were fewer boats on the water
throughout the summer.
Over the past 10 years,
the boat censuses have
wavered around 5,000 boats.
The highest number of boats
counted in the last 16 years
were 5,231 boats in 2011.
The 2014 count found
reductions in all types of
boats. Sail boats had the larg-
est reduction with 121 less
sail boats counted in 2014
than in 2013.
One cause may be that
the Lake Geneva Yacht Club,
which usually houses many
sail boats, is in the process of
major renovations, and not
as many boats were on site as
in years past.
Motorboats decreased
by 95 boats, personal water-
craft decreased by 58 crafts
and others decreased by 125
units.
Fontana had the greatest
number of boats, 1,885 total
with 481 stored off the lake.
Williams Bay had the
second most, 1,038 boats
including 102 boats in off-
lake storage.
Only Williams Bay and
Fontana have off-lake stor-
age that was included in this
count.
Linn South Shore had
the third greatest number of
boats with 989, followed by
Lake Geneva at 598 boats
and Linn North Shore at 259
boats.
Geneva Lake has 112,854
feet of shoreline, with 48 per-
cent of the shoreline in the
town of Linn. Fontana has
19 percent and Williams Bay
and Lake Geneva have 17 and
16 percent respectively.
Boat density can be mea-
sured by feet of shoreline per
boat.
When evaluated with
the inclusion of the off-lake
boats that have access to the
lake it gives an idea of poten-
tial boating pressure. When
evaluated with just the boats
docked on the lake it repre-
sents more of an aesthetic
evaluation, yet can still give
an idea of potential boating
pressure. The 2014 lake-
wide boat density of docked
or moored boats on Geneva
Lake decreased from one
boat every 21.8 feet of shore-
line in 2013 to one boat every
23.7 feet of shoreline.

Tyler August is running
for his third term as state
representative from the 32nd
District.
August has been loyal
to the 32nd District, even
moving from Walworth
to Lake Geneva when the
districts boundaries were
redrawn.
August was in
the state Legislature
during the heady
days of Republi-
can dominance in
the Legislature and
governors ofce,
and the Assembly
and Senate passed
Act 10 and then
reshaped the state
laws, government
and budget more to their
liking.
August said the GOP
is poised to do more after
this coming election, fully
expecting to maintain their
dominance in both houses
and hang on to the governors
mansion.
He said the state is now
on the right track, with
unemployment statewide
on decline and cuts to both
income and property taxes.
August is holding up the
states recent climb to fourth
among the 11 midwestern
states in job creation. He
touted gures from the state
Department of Workforce
Development which reported
the creation of 8,400 Wis-
consin jobs in September.
Those who believe in
sound scal management
should expect more, he said.
The Republican-domi-
nated Legislature wants to
keep property taxes under
control, said August.
This time, the legislature
is considering a statewide
reduction of 70 cents on the
technical school property tax
rate.
August said the state now
has a cash balance of a half
billion dollars. The state has
already enacted tax cuts of
$2 billion.
And the state has $300
million in its rainy day fund,
a budget line item for funds to
pay for emergency expenses.
He said hes now looking
forward to more tax
cuts to come out of
Madison.
Its danger-
ous to keep money
around Madison,
because it tends to
get spent, he said.
A supporter of
the two-year tuition
freeze for the Uni-
versity of Wiscon-
sin system, August
said he would like to see
that freeze extended. And
he would like to extend the
tuition freeze to the technical
schools, as well.
August said he supports
a state constitutional amend-
ment, on the Nov. 4 ballot,
which would limit transpor-
tation fund use to creating
and maintaining highway
and highway infrastructure.
The transportation fund
is nanced with proceeds
mainly from the state gas tax
and car registration fees.
While budget cutting and
trimming may seem to be
the rage in Madison, August
said he is also proud that the
GOP in Madison was able
to increase funding by $150
per student this year for all
schools in the state.
The increase went around
the usual state education aid
formula to ensure that all
school districts got the same
per-pupil boost, he said.
August said he also favors
putting more into the states
Department of Tourism.
Studies show that every
dollar we put into tourism
we get $6 back into the econ-
omy, said August. And thats
just through state and local
taxes.
Michigan nances its
tourism department at $40
million, said August. Wis-
consins Department of Tour-
ism gets $16 million a bien-
nium.
Were certainly getting
outspent by our neighbors,
he said.
August also claims
that the legislatures recent
changes to the states current
health care system elimi-
nated the waiting list for
Badger Care.
August agreed that
68,000 people lost their
access to Badger Care
when the state tightened its
requirements for enlisting in
the state health care system
from 200 percent to 100 per-
cent of the federal poverty
level.
But August said those
68,000 are now able to get
their insurance through the
federal Patient Protection
and Affordable Care Act
insurance exchanges.
Basically, were cover-
ing more people through our
system, he said.
August said he was aware
that Lake Geneva city council
members and the mayor are
in favor of a premier resort
designation. State law limits
premier resort designations
to communities that have 40
percent of its property value
devoted to tourism, or those
endorsed by their local leg-
islators. Most communities
designated premier resort
communities were endorsed
by their local legislators.
But August said he isnt
sure thats the right path.
If the city were to enact
a half-percent sales tax, it
wouldnt just be a tax on
people who visit here, but
the locals would pay it, too,
August said. I just havent
been convinced that its the
way to go. I dont want to see
the people who live here pay
additional taxes.
If a sales tax is approved
by Lake Geneva, wouldnt
that drive business from
Lake Geneva to Delavan,
where there is no sales tax?
he asked.
He said he is looking at
ways to free up some addi-
tional liquor licenses for Lake
Geneva. I think theres ways
to do it without hurting cur-
rent license holders, he said.
August aims for third term

Al Kupsik doesnt believe
that local state representa-
tives are doing their jobs.
My biggest concern is
that we do not get the proper
amount of representation for
our little towns and cities
along the Illinois border,
Kupsik said in a recent inter-
view.
Kupsik is the
Democratic can-
didate for the
32nd Assembly
District seat, held
by Republican
incumbent Tyler
August.
A Lake Geneva
alderman and
president of the
Lake Geneva City
Council, Kupsik said the city
hasnt been getting any sat-
isfaction trying to work with
August about room taxes,
liquor licenses and getting
Lake Geneva declared a pre-
mier resort location.
In somewhat conserva-
tive Lake Geneva, (however,
the city did go for Obama in
2012) it might come as a sur-
prise to some that Kupsik is a
Democrat.
But it runs in the family,
Kupsik said.
Ive always been a Dem-
ocrat. Im from Chicago,
Kupsik said. He said his
father was a Democratic pre-
cinct captain in Chicago.
Since moving to Lake
Geneva 21 years ago, Kupsik
said party was never an issue
because he ran in nonparti-
san elections.
Kupsik said that, should
he be elected, his priorities
would be economic develop-
ment, education, tourism,
having Lake Geneva declared
a premier resort, and some
changes to the states room
tax and liquor license
laws.
He sticks to the
Democratic side
when talking about
state issues.
Locally, having
Lake Geneva
declared a premier
resort is important,
Kupsik said. If the
city gets that designa-
tion, it may go to the
voters on a binding referen-
dum, asking for permission
to impose up to a half percent
sales tax.
Because the citys Class B
liquor licenses are all issued,
no new restaurants want to
locate in Lake Geneva, he
said.
Getting the premier
resort designation would
help the city make the case
that it doesnt have enough
liquor licenses, Kupsik said.
Perhaps the most divisive
act by the Republican domi-
nated Wisconsin-Legislature
was the passage of Act 10,
which eliminated most of the
public employees collective
bargaining abilities.
But Kupsik said he
doesnt see that legislation
being reversed all at once
should the majorities in the
state Assembly and Senate
turn around.
Kupsik said hes not sure
that Act 10 can be completely
reversed, at least not all at
once.
From a government
stand point, its been a suc-
cess, Kupsik said. Its put
the responsibility on local
units of government to pro-
duce employee handbooks,
he said.
Act 10 is already in place.
Its already there, he said. It
will be up to future legisla-
tures to make the best of it.
What needs to be
reversed, are the cuts to edu-
cation, Kupsik said.
The legislature cut 15.8
percent from school budgets
between 2008 and now,
he said. And another cut is
coming.
Kupsik said he talked
with Warren Flitcroft,
nance director for the Lake
Geneva school districts.
The schools are desper-
ate, said Kupsik. They keep
cutting and cutting.
Kupsik said he under-
stands the need to keep the
budget under control, but
cutting education is prob-
ably not the right way.
Kupsik said hes also in
favor of a nonpartisan redis-
tricting system, even if that
requires a change in the state
constitution.
Finally, Kupsik said that
women should be paid the
same for the same work done
as a man.
He is in favor of equal pay

The former Traver Hotel, 323
Broad St., is now in a legal limbo.
Sold to former owner John
Klug and mortgage holder at an
Oct. 2 sheriffs sale, conrmation
of the sale is on hold.
Klug appeared to have regained
possession of the building with an
uncontested bid of $185,000 plus
$34,482 in back property taxes.
The conrmation hearing set
for Oct. 28 was cancelled, and Wal-
worth County Judge Phillip Koss is
now trying to arrange a new hear-
ing at the request of attorney Scott
Connors of Wauwatosa, who is
representing 323 Broad Properties
LLC and its agent, Keith Venturi of
Barrington, Ill.
A spokeswoman from Koss
ofce said no rm date has been set
yet, but it appears the hearing will
be rescheduled to early December.
Venturi bought the Traver
from Klug in 2004 for a reported
$469,000.
According to court documents
led Oct. 20, Connors says he also
represents Barrington Bank &
Trust and VP Construction LLC,
both of which have liens against
the property.
In his challenge to the conr-
mation hearing, Connors claims
that he was not properly notied
of the sheriffs sale or conrmation
hearing and requested that it be
rescheduled.
He also challenges a Walworth
County judges opinion that the
construction lien held by VP Con-
struction was inferior to the mort-
gage held by Klug.
Key to the challenge is a dis-
agreement over the fair market
value of the 140-year-old struc-
ture.
Connors claims that the sale
price offered by Klug and accepted
as the high bid, is actually well
below the fair market value of the
property.
According to court documents,
Connors says that the property
was sold by Klug to Keith Venturi
Figures provided by Connors
indicate that the buildings value is
$550,000, well above the $185,000
bid by Klug at the sheriffs sale. The
supporting appraisal was done by
L.A. Duesterbeck & Associates
Inc., Janesville. The appraisal is
dated Sept. 29, 2008.
The Duesterbeck appraisal,
signed by Linn Duesterbeck, con-
cludes that the building is in fair to
poor condition, the interior needs
complete redevelopment and an
elevator and sprinkler system need
to be installed.
According to Duesterbeck, the
owner (Venturi) indicated that the
building would need between $3
million and $4 million in renova-
tions. However, Klug, through his
attorney Richard Torhorst, led
a differing appraisal by local real
estate broker Sal Dimiceli, which
shows the fair market value at
$275,000. While the report itself
is not dated, two supporting docu-
ments in the appraisal bear the
date Oct. 16, 2014.
According to the Dimiceli
appraisal, the building is consid-
ered near or at condemnation.
The appraisal report also notes the
city of Lake Geneva would like to
see it razed.
County tax records led with
the court indicate that property
taxes totaling $34,428 are due on
the property for the years 2011,
2012 and 2013. The documents
also note that $7,311 is also due as
of January 2014.
The property is assessed at
$282,900 with an estimated fair
market value of $298,000.
Klug added the $34,428 taxes
due to his $185,000 bid at the sher-
iffs sale.
Included in the Duesterbeck
appraisal are some facts about the
former Traver:
The chalet-style four-story
building encompasses 14,306
square feet on a 7,208 square foot
site.
Historically, the building was
a 68-unit hotel, with its average
room size at 125 square feet. There
is dedicated parking for four vehi-
cles.
The building has 106 feet of
frontage on Broad Street and is in
an area zoned for general business.
In his 2008 report, Duester-
beck notes that there had been
little or no updating of the building
in 35 to 50 years.
He lists the highest and best
use as a 20-suite hotel with a res-
taurant and retail on the rst level.
According the Lake Geneva
Regional News archives, the build-
ing was built in 1870 by Benjamin
Fish who opened it as the Union
House hotel.
The Union House was later
enlarged when a vacant building
was moved from Main Street along
side the Union House and the two
structures were connected.
Since 1870, the building has
been known as the Garrison
House, the Hotel Denison and the
Traver Hotel. Mrs. Travers home-
made pies reportedly made the
Traver name famous.
The building was used as a
retirement home for missionaries
for a number of years, but it ceased
being a residence of any kind about
2000.
It has sat vacant since then.
After buying the building
in 2004, Venturi did repair and
cleanup on the building, but he
was never able to nd a renter to
occupy the structure.

LAKE GENEVA AREA NEWS
Genoa City, Linn leaders take on Bloomeld becoming village, how it affected their communities
Incorporation taught neighbors valuable lessons
By Steve Targo
steve@lakegenevanews.net
Editors note: This is part of a series
looking at the village of Bloomeld incor-
poration from the perspectives of key of-
cials in different areas. A story was pub-
lished in last weeks Regional News about
the effects of incorporation from the point
of view of leaders in the town and village
of Bloomeld.
Communication. Ingenuity.
Those were the things Bill Antti and
Jim Weiss, respectively, said they learned
from Bloomelds effort to incorporate a
12-square-mile region as a village, which
was successful in December 2011.
Antti is village president in Genoa City,
south of the town of Bloomeld. Weiss is
chairman of the town of Linn, west of the
town of Bloomeld.
They offered their thoughts and how
the matter relates to their communities in
recent telephone interviews.
Genoa City was one of several parties,
along with the city of Lake Geneva, the
Joint 1 School District and others, which
led a motion to intervene in the effort by
the village of Bloomeld to mass annex the
remaining town.
The annexation attempt was denied by
a Walworth County Circuit Court judge in
February 2013.
I think the whole thing would have
gone better had there been more dis-
cussion between the proposed village of
Bloomeld, the town, Genoa City and Lake
Geneva, Antti said. I think its a matter
of communication. That was really impor-
tant for all parties involved.
He also said everybody should have
been more open to communication.
Weiss had a different take.
I think it was very creative, the way
they carved out their section to incorpo-
rate. Its a creative way to think outside the
box.
In the mid 2000s, town of Linn of-
cials including Weiss,
who was then a supervi-
sor discussed the pos-
sibility of incorporation.
Talks eventually
died, Weiss said.
But given that the
incorporation in Bloom-
eld was a success, is it
something the town of
Linn may soon recon-
sider?
I personally am not a proponent of
(incorporation) for the town of Linn, he
said.
Town of Linn
Why not?
Well, were a unique community.
When it was looked at last time, the stum-
bling block was you have to provide a
city center to all residents.
Weiss said Geneva Lake cuts the town
into two sections known as the north
and south shore regions. Geographically,
the southern region is the largest. Thats
where Zenda is, the location of the town
hall, post ofce and police department.
There also are several businesses in
and around Zenda. Two school districts
and the re and EMS department are
located in Linns south shore region.
So, say, for example, that (the city
center) would be Zenda, Weiss said. We
are unable to provide that (center) to all
residents because of the way our township
is split up. We are not contiguous.
But what about just incorporating the
area of Zenda?
Weiss said he is personally opposed to
that because, to me, the north shore resi-
dents are just as important as the south
shore residents.
Id hate to have two factions in the
town of Linn.
State law allows cities and villages to
annex land, at a property owners request,
from nearby towns.
Is that something
Weiss is concerned
about?
Its always a con-
cern, and in the back
of your mind, he said.
Then, he gave one poten-
tial reason why land
owners may ask nearby
incorporated commu-
nities the village of
Fontana or Lake Geneva
to be annexed. We currently dont have
sewer and water, and it appears we wont
in the near future.
How does the town address the con-
cern? Keeping a low tax base, Weiss said.
Currently, Linns mil rate is about
$1.40 per $1,000 of equalized value.
It appears good working relationships
with neighbors also plays a factor.
Weiss feels Linn works well with Lake
Geneva, Fontana, the village of Williams
Bay and the town of Bloomeld.
He said, recently, the Linn Town Board
approved a road agreement with Lake
Geneva. When the city annexed about 710
acres of former Linn land, that included
the northern side of Willow Road.
The southern side of the road remained
in the town of Linn, Weiss said. But what
happened was the town only maintained
and plowed that side of the road, while the
city only plowed and maintained the north
side.
It appears Linn and Lake Geneva of-
cials reached a solution.
They will now maintain and plow all
of Wilmot Road, and we will maintain and
plow all of Willow Road, Weiss said. Its
a 10-year agreement.
Why did incorporation talks die in
Linn?
Partly because of the geographical sit-
uation, Weiss said, but also because of the
change in economy.
There was activity in the building
trades, (more) annexations but every-
thing slowed down and there was no
longer that volume of building we were
seeing. So, the incorporation talks (fell) to
the wayside.
Genoa City
Anttis village was in a more adver-
sarial position around the time of Bloom-
elds incorporation requests. He was a
trustee when Genoa City actively opposed
the attempts to create the village of Bloom-
eld.
We kind of felt Bloomeld, the village,
was overreaching (in its borders). It just
seemed like they were trying to gather all
that they could.
Early incorporation proposals would
have had the village of Bloomeld abut
Genoa Citys borders. Antti said that would
have landlocked his village, thereby lim-
iting future growth options.
But a region of the town of Bloomeld
remains between the two villages.
Theres a kind of natural buffer,
because theres a (wetland) in between us
that acts as a natural border line, Antti
said.
There are, however, no active annexa-
tion plans for that region of the town
that Antti was aware of. Neither was Ken
Monroe, president of the village of Bloom-
eld, or town of Bloomeld chairman Dan
Schoonover when they were interviewed in
mid October.
How did the incorporation affect
Genoa City?
Antti thought it put a strain on his vil-
lages relations with Bloomeld at the time
the incorporation process was running its
course. Now, things have settled down,
he said. Right now, were ne, I think.
The only effect Antti saw from Bloom-
elds incorporation was that it added a
third partner in the joint re department.
When asked if that was good or bad, he
said it was neither.
We split the (re department) costs,
but essentially, its the same costs whether
theres a village or not.

SCHOOL NOTES
Stetter receives training
Cortney Stetter, Williams Bay, a junior
psychology major, and Kelton Oberle, Elk-
horn, a sophomore occupational safety and
health major, have been trained and certi-
ed to be UW-Whitewater resident assis-
tants for the 2014-15 academic year.
The purpose of the resident assistants
is to generate a community in the residence
halls, help new students adjust to campus
and create a sense of unity among all resi-
dents. To hold the position, applicants must
have a strong academic record and complete
several interviews with their peers and fac-
ulty members. Although the process seems
difcult, the premier leadership experience
available is priceless.

Outside-the-box thinking strives for more efciency
Meet Linns new highway superintendent
By Steve Targo
steve@lakegenevanews.net
LINN Change is good, said Dan
Pitt, the towns new highway superintendent.
Change is hard, but change is good.
Pitt, 53, likes to think outside the box.
Sometimes, solving a problem only requires
a different viewpoint, he said.
Pitt takes that approach at his new job,
and at his other one. He joined the town re
department in 2004, and since 2011, has
served as rst assistant re chief.
The most recent example of thinking out-
side the box to solve a problem is the reboat
idea.
Pitt worked on the boat proposal with
re chief Jason Smith. The boat is expected
to arrive in early November.
The problem improve emergency
response times from the south shore of Linn
to the north shore. Rather than ght trafc
by driving around the Geneva Lake, a boat
allows reghters and EMTs the ability to
cut across the lake.
The re boat proposal is a shining exam-
ple of how thinking outside the box can be
benecial, said Pitt.
In August, he said it addresses another
problem. The concept behind this is its a
oating hydrant. Thats what I used to sell
this. Linn doesnt have any hydrants, so when
you think about it, its a pretty easy sell.
Theres another advantage to having Pitt
as town highway superintendent, which is a
daytime job. Linn chairman Jim Weiss said
Pitt can respond to calls easier than most
reghters and EMTs.
With our volunteer re department,
calls at night are easy to respond to, due to
a larger number of people working a day
schedule, said Weiss.
During the day, its more challenging to
answer calls because volunteers are at work.
Having Pitt as town highway superintendent
gives us someone we know can answer and
respond to calls during the duration of the
day, said Weiss.
Pitt said he brings an emergency kit bag
every time he hops into a highway depart-
ment vehicle.
Is that why he got the job?
Sort of. When asked what gave Pitt the
advantage over the other three applicants for
the superintendents job, Weiss said, Dan
has been with the town of Linn for quite
some time.
He said Pitt has worked for the town
highway department for the past several
years. Through his highway and re depart-
ment experiences, Pitt is very familiar with
our neighborhoods.
But Pitt guessed that board members
may have also selected him because of his
high level of passion.
I think theyre happy that my passion
will spill into the highway department, which
it does. I treat the highway department like I
do the re department.
Where does that passion come from?
OCD, laughed Pitt. No, its a really good
feeling to have a sense of accomplishment. I
dont need a pat on the back, but I know when
Im doing something good for people.
Background
While he may be a familiar face at the re
departments annual pig roast or from driv-
ing snow plows in the winter, Pitts fallen in
love with a town he adopted after a series of
changes.
Originally, from Wheeling, Ill., Pitt
moved near Wilmot when he was in high
school. After he graduated in 1979, he
became a carpenter.
I always loved building stuff. I was really
good.
Then, in 2006, the economy went belly
up. Pitt was laid off, but he found part-time
work at highway departments in the towns
of Geneva and Linn. Each municipality has
their own way of doing stuff. That diversity
was kind of fun.
Last year, Pitt started full-time in the
Linn department.
What does he see that needs to be
changed?
Our snow plowing. We need to improve
it.
He said although most feedback he
received on plowing during last winters
record-setting snowfalls was positive, I
think we could have done a better job. We
could have been a little more efcient.
Pitt said thats his biggest goal ef-
ciency.
He hates complacency, but hes not afraid
to fail.
Youre never going to be able to change
anything unless youre willing to fail.

Biggest business proposal yet, says village president
Super Mix USA looking at Genoa City land
By Steve Targo
steve@lakegenevanews.net
GENOA CITY Another business has
its sights set on the village.
On Oct. 9, the village board and plan-
ning commission approved the concept
presented by Super Mix USA, a producer
of ready-mix concrete and aggregates with
locations in southern Wisconsin and north-
ern Illinois.
For years, Genoa City ofcials have
been trying to attract businesses.
Recently, they turned their attention
to the area of Highway 12 and South Road,
hoping developments such as the travel
center a multi-business project by David
Laurine that includes a gas station, bakery
and convenient store will bring larger
franchises such as Walgreens into the area.
Not far from that intersection, Super
Mix USA has proposed to build on 13.1
acres off Williams Road, south of the
former Highway 12 rest area.
On Oct. 9, Jack Pease, owner of Super
Mix USA, presented the plan to the board
and the commission. It was unanimously
approved at both meetings.
On the phone Oct. 23, Bill Antti vil-
lage of Genoa City president and commis-
sion chairman said its the largest busi-
ness proposal in recent memory to reach
the table.
What (Pease) would like to do is park
a number of his trucks on that site, Antti
said. He also wants to put up a fairly large
building, where he can repair his trucks,
and have it as his business headquarters.
The idea is Genoa City is sort of at the center
of major activities in the area, and (the pro-
posed site) would be centrally located.
Antti said Super Mix USA has locations
in Walworth and Kenosha counties, as well
as McHenry and Lake counties in Illinois.
The proposed facility could bring with
it about 140 employees, Antti said. He also
said that Pease mentioned it could create
new local jobs.
The proposal also calls for 108 truck
parking spaces on the property, as well as a
54,000-square-foot ofce and repair shop
building.
Thats a good-sized building, said
Antti.
Part of what appeals to (Pease) is he
wants to be able to show his company along
Route 12 ... so people are aware of him.
The rear of the business would be vis-
ible from U.S. Highway 12. Its frontage
would be on Williams Road, across from
The Ponds of Genoa City.
Antti said Pease had questions about
signage. He wants to put a sign on the
building that advertises his business.
Pease also wants to put up a monument
sign near Williams Road.
I dont think it would be an issue, said
Antti. You see a lot of places where they
have trucks parked along the Interstate, so
this would be another one. I dont anticipate
the signs will be a problem.
The site is north of the Highway
12-South Road intersection, which is where
Walgreens reps once told village ofcials
they would like to build if there was a stop-
light at the intersection.
When asked if the Super Mix USA
development would help create need for
a stoplight, Antti said he hadnt thought
about that, but it could help.
I think, if (Super Mix USA) comes in
there, maybe it will also bring in some more
businesses. He seemed to think it would,
but that remains to be seen.
The next step, said Antti, is for Super
Mix USA to purchase the property, which is
about 20 acres.
Antti said commissioners and trustees
liked the concept because it sounded good
and has potential not just to build up that
area, but the local economy.
Well try to work with (Pease) to get
it done. Once you have a business like this
in town, theres always job opportunities
available.
It will be up to the zoning administrator to determine
whether a proposed color is bold, bright, fluorescent,
Day-Glo or neon based on examples provided, Slavney
said.
Those shades deemed bold would be allowed on
architectural elements not to exceed 5 percent of faade
area, Slavney said.
Architectural elements include sills, lintels, dentils,
moldings, frames, brackets, awnings and doors, Slavney
said.
Those colors deemed bright, Day-Glo or neon
would not be allowed.
The ordinance leaves it up to the zoning adminis-
trator and the plan commission to allow bold, striking
colors on building facades.
Business owner faces sex assault charge
ELKHORN A 62-year-old Bar-
rington Ill., man is accused of sexually
assaulting a woman inside of his busi-
ness in Pell Lake.
Charles Scharf faces a felony charge
of third-degree sexual assault. If con-
victed, he faces up to 10 years imprison-
ment and $25,000 in nes.
Scharfs defense attorney, Larry
Steen, didnt return a voicemail seeking
comment.
Scharf is free from custody after
posting a $5,000 cash bond. He is
court-ordered not to have contact with
the alleged victim.
According to the criminal complaint
and search warrant afdavit:
The alleged victim told police that
she was agged down by Scharf, who
asked her if she
wanted a job clean-
ing his business.
The woman
expressed an interest
and Scharf invited
her inside to show
her the business.
Scharf is the owner
of Erosion Specialist
Inc., which is located
on Park Road. Inside
of the building, Sharf and the woman
talked about back problems.
While in the upstairs of the busi-
ness, Scharf reportedly offered the
woman a back massage, and the woman
agreed knowing it may be a bad idea.
The woman told police that during
the back massage, Scharf forced his
hand down her pants. He also report-
edly removed her pants against her
consent. The woman told police that she
repeatedly said no.
The assault ended when the wom-
ans phone rang, and she told Scharf it
was her father and she would have to
leave. As the woman left, Scharf report-
edly gave her his business card, and told
her he would contact her about cleaning
the business.
The woman told police she ran
home crying, and when she talked to her
mother she told her what had happened.
Police reported that they were
familiar with Erosion Specialists Inc.,
and the woman accurately described
the inside of the business.

He said department heads pretty much
came up with zero percent increases. Theres
not a lot of fat in the budget to cut out.
Among recommendations for raising the
required $166,422 were:
Raise parking nes from $12 to $20.
Increase visitor child beach passes from
$3 to $4 per visit. Nonresident adult beach
passes are now $7.
Charge residents $2 or $3 a season for
beach passes.
A 0.08 percent increase in the city prop-
erty tax rate.
However, there is no proposed property
tax rate for 2015 at this time.
City Comptroller Peg Pollitt said the state
still has not calculated the citys valuation for
the 2015 tax year.
However, the city must approve a pro-
posed general fund budget before setting a
budget hearing in November, Pollitt said.
Notices of the public hearing must also be
published in advance.
Pollitt said its anticipated that the citys
tax base has increased, which might allow the
city to keep its current tax rate and still col-
lect an increase in property taxes.
Council members Elizabeth Chappell,
Jeff Wall and Richard Hedlund said they
were concerned with the proposed property
tax rate increase, even as small as the one
proposed.
Chappell said she only favored increasing
parking nes.
She said she was against any other fee
increases and she was opposed to pay raises
for city employees.
Jordan said that the beach pass tags cost
money and it takes staff time to manage the
program.
The costs are starting to add up, he said.
If a citizen is concerned about paying
$12 for a season beach pass (for a family of
four) then my goodness, Jordan said.
Hedlund said he supported raising fees
and nes if necessary.
If a tourist gets a parking ticket in Lake
Geneva, theyre mad, said Hedlund. It
doesnt matter if theyre paying $12 or $20.
As for beach passes, Lake Genevas seem
reasonable compared to other communities,
he said.
Beach passes in Crystal Lake (Ill.) for
adults is $10 a day, Hedlund said.
Increasing the cost of beach passes will
bring an anticipated $27,000, he said. And if
he were on the nance committee, hed push
for $10 adult nonresident
beach passes and $5 non-
resident children beach
passes.
Alderwoman Ellyn
Kehoe said she, too,
believes visitors would be
willing to pay more for a
city beach pass.
We could take it to
$8 or $9 for nonresident
adult passes, she said.
Wall said he didnt mind raising fees and
nes, as long as the property tax rate wasnt
increased.
However, Wall said he also didnt want
to consider raises for city employees until
an employee compensation study was com-
pleted. In February this year, the council
agreed to join Elkhorn and Delavan in hiring
Springsted, a Milwaukee consulting rm,
to do a job classication and compensation
study for the three cities.
Lake Genevas share of Springsteds fees
comes to $16,675, of which $13,000 will come
out of the city administrators study budget
and the difference from miscellaneous cash.
The study was to have been done this
summer, but its still not completed.
Dont we want to see that before we con-
sider raises? Wall asked.
Why are we so far behind on the com-
pensation plan? It was supposed to be done
June 28, added Alderman Alan Kupsik.
Jordan said the consultants are still
working on the study, but one of the cities has
been making special requests which is caus-
ing the study to take longer than expected.
The report should be ready before the end of
the year, he said.
In other business, the city bumped up
its payment to the YMCA, from $48,000 to
$54,000 to handle the citys recreation pro-
gram.
Mayor Jim Connors said the city is also
considering an increase in room tax.
The city currently has a 5 percent room
tax on hotel and motel rooms, said Connors.
The city takes in $420,000 a year, of
which $100,000 is given to the chamber
of commerce and convention and visitors
bureau.
Since the city enacted its room tax, the
state enacted a new statute calling for 70 per-
cent of all room taxes to go to convention and
visitors bureaus or organizations that pro-
mote tourism.
If Lake Geneva were to increase its room
tax to the maximum 8 percent, 70 percent of
that 3 percent increase would have to go to
the chamber and CVB, Connors said.
Chappell asked why that proposal wasnt
part of the budget presented to the city coun-
cil. Connors said the city needs to talk to hotel
owners and the chamber to see what they
think of the proposed increase.
He said the chamber is not a fan of the
proposal. They think it will hurt tourism,
he said.
Chappell chided that the city was careful
to go to hotel owners and the chamber before
proposing an increase in the room tax, but it
never approached residents about an increase
in the beach pass fees.
It just seems all so convenient, she said
of the proposed fee increases.
Chappell proposed just increasing the
parking nes from $12 to $20 only, and no
raises for city employees.
I would rather look into a room tax
increase, Chappell said, but that wasnt part
of her motion. Wall seconded for discussion.
Chappells motion failed 1 to 5.
A motion by Kupsik, seconded by Lyon
proposed to raise the parking ne to $20,
raise the nonresident children beach pass
from $3 to $4 and charge residents a fee of $3
each for a season beach pass.
Raises would be held to 1.5 percent.
The motion was approved 5 to 1, with
Chappell the only dissenting vote.
The resolution directs staff to craft the
budget with those changes.

WILLIAMS BAY Thurs-
day was probably the last day of
school for school district voters
planning to vote in the Nov. 4
election.
The Williams Bay School
Board had two informational
open houses Thursday to explain
to voters its proposal to build a
new elementary school at the site
of the existing junior-senior high
school, at 500 Geneva St.
On Aug. 11, the school board
approved a resolution to go to
referendum on the Nov. 4 ballot,
asking district electors to approve
a $19.9 million bond to nance
the project.
If approved, the bond issue
would add about $1.19 per $1,000
of equalized assessed valuation
to the districts property tax levy.
The increase takes into
account that the bond for the
junior/senior high school will be
paid off in 2015. For a property
valued at $341,000, the median
value for homes in the district,
the bond for the new building
would add $420 to that proper-
tys tax for school purposes.
From 3 to 5 p.m. at the Wil-
liams Bay Junior/Senior High
School, and from 5 to 7 p.m. at
the Williams Bay Elementary
School, 139 Congress St., school
district electors were invited
to attend informational open
houses to review plans for the
proposed elementary school and
to ask school board members
and school administration about
those plans.
The school district made
available conceptual drawings,
fact sheets, coffee and cookies.
Attendance, however, was
low. Superintendent Wayne
Anderson said only 10 electors
turned up for the open house at
the junior/senior high school,
and no more than seven turned
up at the elementary school.
Anderson said he didnt
expect a heavy turnout. By now,
news, information and opinion
about the proposed new elemen-
tary school has pretty much satu-
rated the Williams Bay area.
Except for a few still seeking
a bit more information, minds
seem to have been made up.

attended the event hosted by the
Geneva Lake West Chamber of
Commerce.
From a new political party,
gubernatorial candidate Dennis
Fehr said he was running because
he wanted to bring the best ideas
to Madison.
The 24-year-old Chippewa
Falls native founded the Peoples
Party and helped create the par-
tys platform.
The key ve points of the
platform, Fehr said, are to bring
smarter technology to government
services, reform the tax structure,
change the judicial system to help
those with mental health issues,
lower or eliminate the drinking
age and legalize the use of mari-
juana.
Fehr elded questions about
his progressive tax ideas, saying
he wanted the rst bracket of
taxpayers to not pay any income
tax. After that the second bracket
would pay the highest percent,
with higher tax brackets paying
a lower percent of income to the
state.
Fehr said he and party orga-
nizers spoke with economists and
professors to develop the tax plan,
but it wasnt set in stone yet.
Fehr is running against incum-
bent Gov. Scott Walker, Republi-
can, Democratic candidate Mary
Burke and Libertarian candidate
Robert Burke.
Incumbent Secretary of State
Doug LaFollette said hes done a
very good job in ofce over the
past 30 years.
Im not afraid of computers or
science, LaFollette said. When I
came into ofce, we had one of the
worst departments in the country,
and I made it one of the best.
LaFollette said he has fought
with legislators to restore some
of the duties of the ofce back to
the secretary of state. Most state
departments in the rest of the
country issue trademarks and
incorporate businesses.
Not in Wisconsin, LaFol-
lette said. Those duties have been
assigned to the Department of
Financial Institutions since 1995.
LaFollette said he would con-
tinue that ght. He is running
against Republican candidate
Julian Bradley, Constitution Party
candidate Jerry Broitzman and
Libertarian candidate Andy Craig.
Five candidates are running
for state treasurer. Matt Adamc-
zyk, Republican candidate, David
Sartori, Democratic candidate,
and Jerry Shidell, Libertarian
candidate attended the forum last
week. Constitution Party candi-
date Andrew Zuelke and Green
Party candidate Ron Hardy are
also running for the seat.
Adamczyk called himself a
limited government kind of guy
who wanted to eliminate the ofce
of the treasurer.
He said the ofce costs taxpay-
ers more money than its worth,
and the job duties can be switched
to another executive ofce in
Madison.
Shidell also said he would
work to eliminate the ofce if he
were elected.

Sharon artist has work
displayed worldwide
By Jade Bolack
jbolack@lakegenevanews.net
SHARON There arent
many art galleries in Sharon.
Martha Haydens home is the
exception.
Once a year, Hayden opens her
home on Prairie Street to show-
case her artwork, some of which
dates back to the 1950s.
I dont have a favorite paint-
ing, Hayden said of her work.
Just like you dont have favorite
children.
For half the year, she paints at
her home or around the area. For
the other half of the year, shes in
New York City.
(If I could go back), I would
have gone to New York sooner,
Hayden said. Its easy to get to
exhibitions. You can go spend an
hour or two and come back and
work. Here (in Sharon), its a full
day to a gallery.
She said shes inspired by the
caliber of other people making art
in New York.
Being around other artists is
invigorating, Hayden said.
There are also many more
options to get artwork into shows,
she said.
Hayden has painted in other
countries and elsewhere around
the U.S., too. Her artwork remains
in those places, as well.
Her paintings can be seen at
the British Museum in London,
the Museo do Arte Moderno in
Sao Paulo, Brazil, the Brooklyn
Museum in New York and the
Smithsonian Institution in Wash-
ington, D.C.
Hayden said shes learned to
accept rejection from shows and
galleries the same way she han-
dles acceptance.
You cant get too down, and
you cant get too excited, she said.
Mostly, you dont get art in until
after you think you should. There
are many, many disappointments.
You cant focus on the success or
the failure.
Instead, Hayden said, focus on
consistent practice.
Consistency is whats impor-
tant, she said. If you get into
a show or you dont is mostly a
matter of luck. Its a matter of the
right person seeing your work at
the right time.
Haydens two-story Victorian
house is full of canvas and paper
paintings, etchings and charcoal
drawings.
Most of the walls feature
framed artwork, and on the oor,
more canvases are stacked against
the walls. Shes so prolic that she
forgets about some of her paint-
ings.

Haydens work at www.

Stakeholders hear plans for Highway 14
By Jade Bolack
jbolack@lakegenevanews.net
WALWORTH Theres
still no consensus in the village
regarding U.S. Highway 14.
During a presentation by the
Wisconsin Department of Trans-
portation, accusations and head
shaking were more frequent than
agreement.
Dolores Pophal, a member of
the Walworth Task Force, said the
DOT was creating a plan for only
10 percent of the trafc in the vil-
lage.
Pophal cited numbers from a
2012 study of the Highway 14 traf-
c, of which only 10 percent was
large trucks.
Someones trying to sell this
to residents, she said.
DOT project manager Julie
Jenks said the two plans currently
being considered are designed for
all modes of trafc.
Pophal and Louise Czaja are
members of the three-member
Walworth Task Force, a commit-
tee that was created by the Wal-
worth School Board. Along with
that committee, the Geneva Lake
West Chamber of Commerce, the
school board and the village board
had representatives at the meet-
ing.
Jenks said the task force often
has a different opinion than the
school board, and the committee
is allowed to share comments at a
stakeholders meeting because the
group has been involved in the
process since the beginning.
Czaja said she volunteered to
be in the committee in 2009.
Jenks said no public com-
ments were allowed during the
meeting Oct. 24, but she said
those comments would be wel-
come at a public information ses-
sion in December. The date and
location of that meeting arent set
yet, she said.
Safety issues
Jenks said the proposed plan
to reroute trafc on the west side
of the square and eliminate one-
way trafc would be much safer
than current conditions.
Pophal said the village has
had 48 years of safety the way
the trafc is routed now, but Jenks
said there are a lot of crashes at the
intersections around the square
and she hears of at least one vehi-
cle a week going the wrong direc-
tion.
Village President David Ras-
mussen said telling the state
to move the highway wasnt an
option.
Trucks have gotten longer,
he said. Theyre 70 (feet long)
now. What if they go up to 75?
One of the reasons for rerout-
ing the highway, Jenks said, is
because trucks have a hard time
making turns onto and off of the
highway.
Kristina Staude, executive
director of the chamber, said
the village would have trucks no
matter what.
Theyre going to deliver gas,
theyre going to deliver to Sentry,
she said.
One plan, which maintains
one-way trafc around the
square, will reduce the number of
parking spots. The DOT doesnt
allow angle parking on a highway,
and because of the widening of
the intersections, parking spaces
would be lost.
When the road was most
recently repaved in 1991, the state
allowed the village to maintain
angle parking. Jenks said they
couldnt allow angle parking this
time.
Because this is a reconstruc-
tion, we need to meet all stan-
dards, she said. There are safety
issues that we need to address.
The two plans the DOT is
considering the east option
that straightens the highway on
the west side of the square and
through the parking lot and the
west option that maintains one-
way trafc around the square
both address these safety con-
cerns.
Jenks said both plans are
still an option, but once an envi-
ronmental study is complete, the
DOT will recommend a plan. The
Federal Highway Administration
has the nal approval on the proj-
ect because some federal funds
are being used.
Rasmussen said the straight-
ened highway is safer for pedes-
trians.
I dont know how anyone
can claim its safer to keep trucks
on the north and east side of the
square, he said. Theres no way
the east plan is safer.
The east plan creates turn
lanes on Main Street, which would
increase the crosswalk distance
for students walking to school,
Rasmussen said.
Eminent domain
Pophal questioned the DOTs
authority to take public school
property.
Weve conrmed that we
are able to purchase that, Jenks
said. This has happened at other
schools.
The DOT is already in negotia-
tions with owners of the Antique
Mall on the corner of Beloit and
Main streets to purchase that
property.
Jenks said the DOT prefers to
purchase property, rather than
using the right of eminent domain.
Youre land locking the
school, Pophal said.
I dont think the DOT has
(the money) to pay the school for
relocation costs when it needs to
grow.
The DOT is purchasing the
Antique Mall ve years before the
anticipated start of construction.
Demolition of the building is
expected in spring 2015.
Demolition of that building is
needed with both proposed plans.
With the east plan, which
maintains one-way trafc, the
King Dragon Chinese restaurant
will be relocated. With the west
plan, that straightens the high-
way to the west of the square, two
houses south of the antique mall
will be relocated.
Those properties will not be
purchased until a plan is chosen.
School issues
Rasmussen accussed the
school of sending a misleading
newsletter to parents about the
highway.
In the Oct. 13 issue of the dis-
trict newsletter, the district states
the north turnaround on Beloit
Street will be eliminated and all
student drop offs and pickups will
be diverted to Fremont Street.
However, at the DOT meeting,
Jenks said the DOT wasnt man-
dating the school eliminate trafc
on the north end of the school.
Thats a dishonest newslet-
ter, Rasmussen said. You should
be ashamed for sending that out.
Interim District Administra-
tor Pam Larson said the letter
was a fair representation of what
would happen.
Students, Larson said,
shouldnt be that close to the high-
way, so the school would move
drop off and pickups to the west
side of the school.
The newsletter also states that
handicapped-accessible parking
will be moved farther from the
entrance on the east side of the
school, near the multipurpose
room, and that the school will
lose some of its playground space,
if the west plan is chosen for the
highway.

JADE BOLACK/REGIONAL NEWS
JULIE JENKS, left, U.S. Highway 14 DOT project manager, describes some changes to a proposed plan
for rerouting the highway through the village. Village President David Rasmussen and Trustee Dennis
Vanderbloemen watch.
Because the treasurer is
a constitutional ofce, two
sessions of the legislature
need to pass the same bill
to eliminate the ofce. Then
voters must approve the
changes in a referendum.
Sartori said he wants to
keep the ofce in Madison.
Im quite familiar with
how government works,
Sartori said.
This ofce could be run
more efciently than other
ofces which are handling
the work.

candidate for the U.S. House
seat, said he wants to bring

Zerban said he was in

rations.
He also

Zerban faces incumbent

senate Dan Kilkenny,

Kilkenny said Nass was

Fontana board mulls cuts
to post-retirement benets
By Jade Bolack
jbolack@lakegenevanews.net
FONTANA The Fontana School
Board still hasnt decided how it will
eliminate post-retirement benets for
employees.
Board Vice President Lisa Laing
said shes spoken with the boards
attorney to make sure the proposed
options are legal.
We dont have a nal solution,
Laing said at the Oct. 27 board meet-
ing. The attorneys have reviewed the
options. We should have something for
next month.
The school board agreed earlier
this year that it wanted to get out of
the post-retirement benet business.
In prior years, teachers and staff
who retired from the district received
about $120,000 in health insurance
coverage, according to a draft proposal
for changes to the policy.
The costs were burdening the
school board and reducing its ability to
increase salaries. Since April, the board
has discussed several different alterna-
tives for phasing out the program.
Currently, the district has three
employees that have completed the 20
years required to receive the benet,
but the board changed the way they
will receive it when they retire.
Instead of receiving $120,000 in
insurance coverage over six years, these
three employees will receive $80,000
in premium-only, retiree-only health
reimbursement account over ve years.
For other staff members that have
worked at the district for at least ve
years, the board wants to have some
benet when they retire. Staff mem-
bers that have worked less than ve
years will not receive any benet, if the
board approves changes.
Board President Rebecca Decker
said the ve-year cutoff was chosen
because thats when Act 10 was imple-
mented.
Act 10 mandated government
employees pay for a larger percentage
of their health insurance coverage and
retirement plan. On Monday night, the
board delayed further discussion for a
special meeting next month. Laing said
shed like District Administrator Sara
Norton to be at the meeting.
Construction update
Harlan Ward, a representative from
McKinstry Co., said the rst phase of
construction on the school was nearly
nished.
Ward told the school board he had
a short list of mostly cosmetic xes
to nish before construction stopped
until student vacation days. Phase two
of the project, which includes exte-
rior masonry work, wont begin until
summer vacation.
The board is considering changing
the project list to include new kitchen
equipment or at least an exhaust hood
and re suppression system over the
stove. The current hood is undersized
for the space, Ward said.
The board said they would talk
with the cook who works in the schools
kitchen to determine what is needed
in the space. Ward said if the space is
remodeled, other items might need to
be brought up to code that have been
grandfathered in because of the age of
the building.
The board also wants the lighting in
the library and the entryway updated
to a more energy efcient product.
Board Treasurer Chadd Hartwig
said he appreciated the work McKin-
stry was doing in the school.
A few teachers at the meeting also
said workers at the school were always
polite and clean in the classrooms.
The district took out a loan for the
projects, totaling an estimated $4.4
million, and is allowed to increase the
tax levy because the projects are for
energy efcient building maintenance.
Earlier this year, the district bor-
rowed $3.5 million in a one-year loan,
which will be paid back when the board
borrows the long-term loan for the
exact amount of the project.
Delavan man
killed in crash
LYONS A 45-year-old Delavan man was killed in a
single-vehicle crash that occurred Oct. 27 at 9:31 a.m. on
State Highway 36.
Jeffrey S. Bonsall, who was pronounced dead at the
scene, was the passenger in the vehicle. The driver, Taran
Q. Raczka, 22, Burlington, was transported to Burlington
Hospital via Paratech and then own to Froedtert Hospital,
Wauwatosa. The initial investigation suggests that Raczka
was driving east on Highway 36 when he lost control of his
vehicle, drove off the road and hit a tree.
There were no indications that Raczka applied his brakes
prior to the vehicle striking the tree, according to a press
release by the Walworth County Sheriffs Department.
Bonsall was trapped in the vehicle. Responding deputies
and Lyons Rescue personnel, along with Paratech, found no
sign of life from Bonsall.
He was eventually extricated from the vehicle and the
Walworth County Coroners Ofce pronounced him dead at
the scene at 10:44 a.m.
An autopsy is being performed tomorrow to determine
the exact cause of death. The investigation remains ongoing.

OConnell misquoted
An article last week incorrectly cited a statement by
Fontana Plan Commissioner Micki OConnell. OConnell
said during the Oct. 6 commission meeting that she was
opposed to the 18 planned town homes on Douglas Street
because it would be too much crammed in one small area.

Hayden said when she was prepping for the open house,
she found some shed forgotten.
Typically I remember most pieces, she said. I dont
really remember faces, but if (people) describe to me which
piece they bought, then I can place them.
She makes remembering her pieces a bit easier with
simple titling.
This is probably titled Fruit, she said, ipping over a
framed canvas. Yes, Plate of Fruit.
An artists day
Hayden said she paints every day, unless shes getting
ready for the open house or traveling.
In the morning, she does all the work thats not art but
related to art, she said.
Theres correspondence, applying for grants and residen-
cies, she said. I also make most of the frames. Thats all in
the morning. From noon until dark, I work.
She used to teach art classes in Sharon, but she gave it up
to focus on her own development.
I found that teaching is detrimental after a while, she
said. It calls you back to the beginning. The best art is made
by people who dont realize their style. Its where really break
through items are made, when an artist doesnt know.
That continued development is why Hayden changed
from studying ceramics in college to studying painting.
I realized that ceramics was something you could master,
and then it would be like working in a factory, she said.
Painting isnt like that. Theres always something new to
learn.
Hayden graduated from the Art Institute of Chicago, after
taking a few semesters off to do artwork, getting married
and having two kids.
The Art Institute, she said, was the perfect place to go to
school for an artist because she got to live with the paintings
in the galleries.
Hayden and her family decided to move to Sharon to
reduce costs of living, so her and her artist husband could
focus on their artwork.
They came to Sharon to look at a house. Instead they
found the Victorian abandoned and in sad shape. They moved
in 1961.
Hayden said she renished most of the woodwork in the
house. She said there were layers of paint to remove.
Sharon was magically Victorian back then, Hayden said.
There were so many Victorian houses. A lot of them have
been ruined ... people put up aluminum siding and take down
the porches. There are still some Victorian houses but not as
many as back then.
During the restoration process, Hayden said she liked to
look at other restored Victorian homes.
I like to see how old houses are supposed to be, she said.
I wanted this house to be that way. Of course, there are cer-
tain changes.
A reason for the painting
Hayden said she likes to solve a problem with her paint-
ings.
In one, the view is out her New York window, but its not
just the cityscape. Instead, shes working on scale issues. In
the foreground, theres a milk carton. In the background,
theres a bridge.
I was trying to solve that, she said.
The paintings hung on her homes walls arent just art.
Theyre art about art, she said. Its the formal aspects of
the painting, not just the subject matter.
Hayden has a 10-piece allegorical series that she plans to
continue. On the large canvas, Hayden has imitated charac-
ters from Manets Luncheon on the Grass into a contemporary
setting. Art historians or those with rst-hand knowledge of
it, would recognize these three characters, Hayden said.
She expects to continue to paint as long as possible.
Why would I quit? she asked. I cant imagine what else
Id do.

NOTICE OF REFERENDUM ELECTION
NOVEMBER 4, 2014
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN, that at an election to be held in the several
towns, villages, wards, and election districts of the State of Wisconsin, on Tuesday,
November 4, 2014, the following question will be submitted to a vote of the people
pursuant to law:
2013 ENROLLED JOINT RESOLUTION 1
To renumber section 9 of article IV; and to create section 9 (2) of article IV and
section 11 of article VIII of the constitution; relating to: creation of a department of
transportation, creation of a transportation fund, and deposit of funds into the trans-
portation fund (second consideration).
Whereas, the 2011 legislature in regular session considered a proposed amend-
ment to the constitution in 2011 Senate Joint Resolution 23, which became 2011
Enrolled Joint Resolution 4, and agreed to it by a majority of the members elected to
each of the two houses, which proposed amendment reads as follows:
SECTION 1.Section 9 of article IV of the constitution is renumbered
section 9 (1) of article IV.
SECTION 2. Section 9 (2) of article IV of the constitution is created to read:
[Article IV] Section 9 (2) The legislature shall provide by law for the
establishment of a department of transportation and a transportation fund.
SECTION 3. Section 11 of article VIII of the constitution is created to read:
[Article VIII] Section 11. All funds collected by the state from any taxes or fees lev-
ied or imposed for the licensing of motor vehicle operators, for the titling, licensing,
or registration of motor vehicles, for motor vehicle fuel, or for the use of roadways,
highways, or bridges, and from taxes and fees levied or imposed for aircraft, air-
line property, or aviation fuel or for railroads or railroad property shall be deposited
only into the transportation fund or with a trustee for the benet of the department
of transportation or the holders of transportationrelated revenue bonds, except for
collections from taxes or fees in existence on December 31, 2010, that were not
being deposited in the transportation fund on that date. None of the funds collected
or received by the state from any source and deposited into the transportation fund
shall be lapsed,further transferred, or appropriated to any program that is not directly
administered by the department of transportation in furtherance of the departments
responsibility for the
planning, promotion, and protection of all transportation systems in the state except
for programs for which there was an appropriation from the transportation fund on
December 31, 2010. In this section, the term motor vehicle does not include any
allterrain vehicles, snowmobiles, or watercraft.
SECTION 4. Numbering of new provision. If another constitutional amend-
ment ratied by the people creates the number of any provision created in this joint
resolution, the chief of the legislative reference bureau shall determine the sequenc-
ing and the numbering of the provisions whose numbers conict.
Now, therefore, be it resolved by the assembly, the senate concurring, That the
foregoing proposed amendment to the constitution is agreed to by the 2013 legisla-
ture; and, be it further
Resolved, That the foregoing proposed amendment to the constitution be sub-
mitted to a vote of the people at the election to be held on the Tuesday after the rst
Monday in November 2014; and, be it further
Resolved, That the question concerning ratication of the foregoing proposed
amendment to the constitution be stated on the ballot as follows:
QUESTION 1: Creation of a Transportation Fund. Shall section 9 (2) of
article IV and section 11 of article VIII of the constitution be created to require
that revenues generated by use of the state transportation system be deposited into a
transportation fund administered by a department of transportation for the exclusive
purpose of funding Wisconsins transportation systems and to prohibit any transfers
or lapses from this fund?
EXPLANATION
In general, funds collected in fees and taxes may be appropriated for any public
purpose determined by the Legislature. Wisconsins transportation fund, which cur-
rently exists under statute, is designed to be the source of funding for all modes of
transportation in the state. Wisconsin law requires that specic revenue streams such
as taxes or fees related to motor vehicles, aircraft, and railroads be deposited into the
transportation fund.
At times, the Legislature has transferred moneys initially deposited into the
transportation fund to programs with non-transportation-related purposes. Such
transfers have typically been to general revenue funds, which are used for state pro-
grams such as education, health care, and shared revenue. The Wisconsin Supreme
Court has suggested that these transfers are permissible under current law.
In essence, the proposed amendment would change the Wisconsin Constitution
to require that revenues generated by specied uses of the state transportation system
be deposited into a transportation fund and expended only for transportation-related
purposes.
Ayes vote on this question would establish a department of transportation and
a transportation fund in the state constitution. The current Department of Transporta-
tion and transportation fund exist only under statute. Ayes vote would mean that
all funds collected from taxes or fees in existence after December 31, 2010 for the
licensing of motor vehicle operators, for the titling, licensing, or registration of motor
vehicles, for motor vehicle fuel, or for the use of roadways, highways, or bridges, and
from taxes and fees levied or imposed for aircraft, airline property, or aviation fuel
or for railroads or railroad property would be deposited in the transportation fund
or with certain authorized parties, such as a trustee for the benet of the department
of transportation. Funds in the transportation fund may not be lapsed, further trans-
ferred, or used for any program that is not directly administered by the department
of transportation in furtherance of the departments responsibility for the planning,
promotion, and protection of all transportation systems in the state (except for pro-
grams with an appropriation from the statutory transportation fund as of December
31, 2010). The proposed amendment does not dene transportation systems.
A no vote would mean that the Department of Transportation continues to be
a statutory agency. It also would mean that monies collected from motor vehicle,
aircraft, and railroad fees and taxes could be appropriated by the Legislature for
transportation systems or for other programs as determined by the Legislature.

COMMUNITY NOTES
Im here as an inquiring mind, said Bill Lovell, a Wil-
liams Bay resident. Lovell said he hasnt decided which
way hell vote on the referendum.
Im checking it out as a reconnaissance, he said of
his visit to the open house. Lovell said hes also taking
information about the proposed school building to family
who still live in Illinois, but who own property is Williams
Bay.
Jim Anton, also a resident, said he was at the open
house to check out some facts. On the referendum ques-
tion itself, Im on the fence, Anton said.
For the past two years, the Williams Bay School Board
reviewed options and talked with consultants about what
to do with its aging elementary school building at 139
Congress St.
The consensus reached by a citizen committee and the
school board was to build new and gather all the grades
on the 80-acre property at 500 W. Geneva St. The old
elementary school, once the districts sole K-12 building,
would be either sold or razed. The property at 139 Con-
gress St. would also be sold.
Architects and consultants from Eppstein-Uhen &
Associates, Milwaukee, have come up with a design that
would connect the K-5 grade school to the junior-senior
high school building.
Although the proposed elementary building would be
connected to the junior/senior high building on the out-
side, inside the elementary and junior-senior high school
students would be separated, while the two buildings
would share some spaces, including gymnasiums and
food service.
The $19.9 million bond would pay for all project costs,
including new construction, renovations to the current
junior/senior high school, site work, furnishings, equip-
ment, professional services fees, required permits and
the cost to demolish the current elementary school, if it
cannot be sold by May 2015.
Anderson has said that electors can still nd informa-
tion about the proposed project on his blog on the school
district website.
In April, the school board did a quick review of what
it wanted in the new elementary school. The two-story
structure would connect to the existing junior/senior high
school on the northeast side. It would have its own secure
entrances and exits.
It would share the kitchen with the junior-senior high
school. The building would also have shared and multi-
use features, such as a full-sized gym with two basket-
ball courts and a stage for multi-purpose use and a weight
room.
In June, the school board approved spending up to
$28,000 to have its building consultants Eppstein Uhen,
Milwaukee, and Scherrer Construction, Burlington, to
prepare interior and exterior drawings and renderings of
the proposed structure.
The problem with the existing elementary school
building is not capacity. The board has made clear that
the problem with the elementary school building is age.
The core of the building dates back to World War I.
Originally built in 1916 to house all 12 grades in the
Williams Bay School District, at least six additions have
been added to the building.
The building served as the districts only school build-
ing until the new junior/senior high school was opened in
1996.
The additions to the older building added space, but
also made the buildings mechanical and electrical ser-
vices more complex.
The old school still uses boilers rst installed in 1916.
Those boilers have been reworked over the years to
use rst wood, then coal, then oil and now natural gas as
its primary fuel. Maintenance staff has said its hard nd-
ing parts for the old boilers.
The schools wiring also runs through a series of
junction boxes separated around the school. The wiring
cannot easily support modern electronics, including com-
puters. In the newest addition, dating to 1991, the class-
room windows cant be opened because parts inside the
windows are broken.
Repairing some of the xtures in the building is
impossible because they are no longer manufactured,
Anderson has said.
Bay/Some in attendance say they are on the fence

Mercy receives donation from Enbridge
Mercy Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Mercy
Health System, received $500 from Enbridge Energys
Community Investment Fund. The funds will be allocated
to the Autism Support Fund which provides free or low cost
access to social skills classes.
Autism affects 1 in 68 children. More children will be
diagnosed with autism this year than with AIDS, diabetes
and cancer combined. Autism is the fastest growing seri-
ous developmental disability in the United States. There is
no medical detection or cure; its presence is growing at an
overwhelming rate.
The families affected by autism struggle to provide the
quality care their children need because of the staggering
costs and lack of insurance coverage.
To help, the Mercy Foundation created the ASF, which
provides nancial resources to families affected by Autism
Spectrum Disorder in Walworth County.
Resources are used toward social skills classes, sensory
and safety equipment, respite care and more. To qualify,
all applicants must present documentation of a veried
diagnosis of an autism spectrum disorder and a completed
application and necessary nancial documentation.
For more information about the Mercy Foundation or
ASF, visit Foundation.MercyHealthSystem.org.

shall retire alone to a voting booth or machine and cast his or her ballot except that an elector
who is a parent or guardian may be accompanied by the elector's minor child or minor ward. An
election official may inform the elector of the proper manner for casting a vote, but the official
may not in any manner advise or indicate a particular voting choice.
On referenda questions, where paper ballots are used, the elector shall make a cross (X)
in the square at the right of "yes" if in favor of the question, or the elector shall make a cross (X)
in the square at the right of "no" if opposed to the question.
When using a tactile ballot marking device (Vote-PAD) to mark a paper ballot, the elector
shall obtain from the inspectors, the assistive device and any audio or dexterity aids if required.
On referendum questions, the elector shall fill in the oval or connect the arrow next to "yes" if in
favor of the question, or the elector shall fill in the oval or connect the arrow next to "no" if
opposed to the question.
On referenda questions, where optical scan voting systems are used, the elector shall fill
in the oval or connect the arrow next to "yes" if in favor of the question, or the elector shall fill in
the oval or connect the arrow next to "no" if opposed to the question.
When using an electronic ballot marking device ("Automark") to mark an optical scan

anyone so as to reveal how the ballot is marked.
If the elector spoils a paper or optical scan ballot, he or she shall return it to an election
official who shall issue another ballot in its place, but not more than three ballots shall be issued
to any one elector. If the ballot has not been initialed by two inspectors or is defective in any
other way, the elector shall return it to the election official, who shall issue a proper ballot in its
place. The elector may spoil a touch screen ballot at the voting station, but not more than three
ballots shall be issued to any one elector.
After casting his or her vote, the elector shall leave the voting booth, properly deposit the
ballot and promptly leave the polling place.
After an official paper ballot is marked, it shall be folded so the inside marks do not
show, but so the printed endorsements and inspectors' initials on the outside do show. The
elector shall leave the booth, deposit the folded ballot in the ballot box, or deliver the ballot to an
inspector for deposit in the box, and shall leave the polling place promptly.
After an official optical scan ballot is marked, it shall be inserted in the security sleeve
so the marks do not show. After casting his or her vote, the elector shall leave the booth, insert
the ballot in the voting device and discard the sleeve, or deliver the ballot to an inspector for
deposit. If a central count system is used, the elector shall insert the ballot in the ballot box and
discard the sleeve, or deliver the ballot to an inspector for deposit. The elector shall leave the
polling place promptly.
After an official touch screen ballot is cast, the elector shall leave the polling place

POLICE AND COURT REPORTS
NOTICE OF GENERAL ELECTION
AND SAMPLE BALLOTS
November 4, 2014
OFFICE OF THE WALWORTH COUNTY CLERK
TO THE VOTERS OF WALWORTH COUNTY
Notice is hereby given of a general election to be
held in the several wards in Walworth County, on
the 4th of November, 2014, at which the officers
named below shall be chosen. The names of the
candidates for each office to be voted for, whose
nominations have been certified to or filed in this
office, are given under the title of the office and
under the appropriate party or other designation,
each in its proper column, together with the
questions submitted to a vote, in the sample ballot
below.
INFORMATION TO VOTERS
Upon entering the polling place, a voter shall state
his or her name and address and sign the poll
book before being permitted to vote. If a voter is
not registered to vote, a voter may register to vote
at the polling place serving his or her residence if
the voter provides proof of residence. Where
ballots are distributed to voters, the initials of two
inspectors must appear on the ballot. Upon being
permitted to vote, the voter shall retire alone to a
voting booth or machine and cast his or her ballot
except that a voter who is a parent or guardian may
be accompanied by the voter's minor child or
minor ward. An election official may inform the
voter of the proper manner for casting a vote, but
the official may not in any manner advise or
indicate a particular voting choice.
Where hand-count paper ballots are used, the
voter shall make a mark (X) in the square next to
the name of the candidate of his or her choice for
each office for which he or she intends to vote. To
vote for a person whose name does not appear on
the ballot, the voter shall write in the name of the
person of his or her choice in the space provided
for a write-in vote. On referendum questions, the
voter shall make a cross (X) in the square next to
"yes" if in favor of the question, or the voter shall
make a cross (X) in the square next to "no" if
opposed to the question.
Where an optical scan voting system is used,
the voter shall fill in the oval next to the name of
the candidate of his or her choice for each office
for which he or she intends to vote. To vote for a
person whose name does not appear on the ballot,
the voter shall write in the name of the person of
his or her choice in the space provided for a write-
in vote, and fill in the oval on the write-in line. On
referendum questions, the voter shall fill in the
oval next to "yes" if in favor of the question, or the
voter shall fill in the oval next to "no" if opposed
to the question.
Where touch screen voting systems are used,
the voter shall touch the screen next to the name
of the candidate of his or her choice for each office
for which he or she intends to vote. To vote for a
person whose name does not appear on the ballot,
the voter shall type in the name of the person of
his or her choice in the space provided for a write-
in vote. On referendum questions, the voter shall
touch the screen next to "yes" if in favor of the
question or the voter shall touch the screen next to
"no" if opposed to the question.
Note: A voter must vote for Governor and
Lieutenant Governor jointly on one ticket. A vote
for Governor is also a vote for Lieutenant Governor.
To vote for persons whose names do not appear
on the ballot, write the names of individuals for
both offices on the lines provided.
The vote should not be cast in any other manner.
Not more than five minutes' time shall be allowed
inside a voting booth. Sample ballots or other
materials to assist the voter in marking his or her
ballot may be taken into the booth and copied.
The sample ballot shall not be shown to anyone so
as to reveal how the ballot is marked.
If a voter spoils a paper or optical scan ballot,
he or she shall return it to an election official who
shall issue another ballot in its place, but not more
than three ballots shall be issued to any one voter.
If the ballot has not been initialed by two
inspectors or is defective in any other way, the
voter shall return it to the election official who
shall issue a proper ballot in its place. The elector
may spoil a touch screen ballot at the voting
station before the ballot is cast.
After casting his or her vote, the voter shall leave
the voting booth, properly deposit the ballot, and
promptly leave the polling place.
After an official hand-count paper ballot is
marked, it shall be folded so that the inside marks
do not show, but so the printed endorsements and
inspectors' initials on the outside do show. The
voter shall then deposit his or her folded ballot in
the proper ballot box or deliver the ballot to an
inspector for deposit, and leave the polling place
promptly.
After an official optical scan ballot is marked, it
shall be inserted in the security sleeve so the
marks do not show. The voter shall then insert the
ballot in the voting device and discard the sleeve,
or deliver the ballot to an inspector for deposit.
The voter shall leave the polling place promptly.
After an official touch screen ballot is cast, the
voter shall leave the polling place promptly.
A voter may select an individual to assist in
casting his or her vote if the voter declares to the
presiding official that he or she is unable to read,
has difficulty reading, writing, or understanding
English, or that due to disability is unable to cast
his or her ballot. The selected individual rendering
assistance may not be the voter's employer or an
agent of that employer or an officer or agent of a
labor organization which represents the voter.
The following is a sample of the official ballot:

is the councils prevue to appoint some-
one. Although Mr. Connors said the
council would be following the same
process it had when Mr. ONeill resigned
and Mr. Tolar came in and filled the bal-
ance of his term. Ms. Hill noted there
was not an ad put in the paper at that
time. Mr. Connors stated he and Mr.
Draper discussed this item prior to the
agenda and felt it would be best to make
the announcement tonight to allow for
anyone wishing to submit their desire to
serve. The council would then discuss it
at the next meeting. There was further
discussion on how the council wanted to
proceed with the process. Alderman
Kehoe suggested putting the opening on
the city website. Mr. Connors encour-
aged the council to make a motion to ask
anyone interested in filling the vacant
spot to submit a letter stating such by
Friday, October 3rd and the council
would vote on a person to fill the vacan-
cy on the next regularly scheduled meet-
ing, October 13th. City Administrator
Jordan suggested that applicants include
a resume.
Kordus/Wall motion to allow any-
one currently living in the 3rd district to
submit a resume and letter of interest for
the 3rd District Alderman position to the
city by October 3rd, for review prior to
the October 13th agenda where the
council would vote to select a new alder-
person. Motion carried 7 to 0.

agreed that the council should not have
to garner three bids for every project that
comes through and felt that department
heads usually do a pretty good job of
getting close to the ballpark, however
this was just one particular item she felt
was excessive and asked for an addi-
tional bid. Mr. Kupsik stated in this case,
just like the Police and Fire Commission,
once the council approves the money for
the Library, the Library can spend it how-
ever they want and the council has no
say.

bine two parcels into one. Current Tax
Key Nos. ZLM 00077 & ZLM 00079.
Kupsik/Lyon motion to approve.
Alderman Kupsik stated the applicant
was looking to combine the lot numbers
18 and 21. He stated there were some
staff and engineer recommendations
included. Mr. Connors noted the engi-
neers comment was that he wanted
Orchard Lane fully visible so that every-
one understood there was a right-of-way
involved with the property, which has
been corrected.

Personnel Committee
Recommendations Alderman Kupsik
Second Reading of Ordinance 14-
05, to amend Section 2-49(3)f pertaining
to the personnel committee responsibili-
ties.
Kupsik/Hill motion to approve.
Mayor Connors asked there be a change
of language to the last two words of 1(f)
to state the Lake Geneva Employee
Handbook, which matches the title of our
document. There is no change to the
actual document. Alderman Kordus stat-
ed that this ordinance allows the city to
run more like a business and that the
council should not have to be involved in
the day to day hiring and operations. He
also pointed out that it is in the councils
best interest to keep tabs on our depart-
ment heads and ensure we have a man-
aging body for the department heads as
we pass the responsibility on to them.
Alderman Lyon stated he believes
the department heads that are closest to
the employee can make the best objec-
tive determination relative to their
employment at that level and not at the
council level. He said the council ends
up getting into debates where they dont
have a lot of objective evidence on their
side. He said he is fully in support of this
and feels the responsibility should be put
where it belongs and allow the depart-
ment head to operate their department
including their employees. Alderman
Kupsik noted that if you refer to the
employee handbook on page 18 and 19,
there is a due process for termination,
resignation and reduction in force.
Mayor Connors stated this is the result
from Act 10 and Act 32 and these are
new rules that all municipalities are run
by. Alderman Hill pointed out that every
single person employed in the communi-
ty is an at-will employee as Wisconsin is
an at-will state, where you can be escort-
ed to your car at any given time. She
presumes that department heads are
managing their employees in such a way
that they would obviously have due
cause, and noted there are not many
people where are not already familiar
with this process.
Roll Call: Chappell, Wall, Kordus,
Hill, Kehoe, Kupsik, and Lyon voted
yes. Motion carried 7 to 0.
Discussion/Action on the process
for appointment of an individual to fill the
balance of the vacant aldermanic term in
the third district.
City Attorney Draper stated he
thought it would be wise for the council to
discuss the process in filling the vacancy.
He stated the statutes provide that the
council will make an appointment for the
replacement. In the past it was thought
that the mayor made the replacement,
however, it is actually the council. He
stated the council should set up a
process on how to gather candidates,
how to determine which candidate to
vote on or whether to take the whole
slate of people who submit their names.
Mr. Draper suggested letting the public
know that the city is seeking someone to
fill the position and allow people a certain
amount of time to submit their name. He
stated there should be a process estab-
lished and followed. Mayor Connors
stated per state statute and city ordi-
nance, the council would appoint some-
one to the remainder of the term, ending
this April. Had the vacancy been open
for another year, it would have gone to a
special election, but in this circumstance
its an appointment for the balance of the
term. Alderman Hill asked what the pre-
vious process has been. Mr. Connors
stated it was not done correctly in the
past as the mayor would appoint some-
one and the council would vote on it,
where the city ordinance clearly states it

Alderman Lyon
Discussion/Action on award of
contract to Dan Larsen Landscape of
Cedarburg, WI for the 2014 Fall Tree
Planting in the amount of $27,772.00
funded by the Capital Projects Fund.
Lyon/Wall motion to approve.
Alderman Lyon stated Dan Larsen
Landscape had the winning bid on this
contract and has successfully done work
for the city in the past. Alderman Hill
questioned the disparity in the bids as
the other bid was almost twice the
amount. Alderman Kordus stated that
DPW Winkler thought it was due to the
company being a new bidder out of
Brookfield, where they may be higher
priced. Mayor Connors stated the unit
cost for all the trees for this bidder were
significantly higher as well. He also
noted that staff had contacted 15 possi-
ble vendors, 6 took out packets and only
2 returned bids. He said Dan Larsen
Landscape has held the bid for the last
two out of three years and they have
always done quality work.

Hill, Kehoe, Kupsik, and Lyon voted
yes. Motion carried 7 to 0.

Discussion/Action on renewal of
Liability, Property and Workmans
Compensation policy.
Lyon/Kupsik motion to approve.
Alderman Lyon stated the premium for
the prior year was just under $305,000
and the premium for the current year is
331,000, approximately a 9% increase.
Mr. Lyon stated the City Administrator
informed the Finance Committee the 9%
increase is primarily due the citys expe-
rience on workmans comp side. City
Administrator Jordan stated there was a
$400 increase for all the coverages
including the increase to workmans
comp. He received the final number
today for the renewal of the policy of
$332,061. He stated the numbers are
based on a three year average. If the
city has a good year, the amount may
decrease. Mr. Jordan noted that the
state sets the rate for workmans comp
by taking the salary multiplied by the rate
that they categorize each job classifica-
tion and then base it on the municipalitys
experience. He said it went up because
the city had a bad year. Alderman Wall
asked if the carrier puts on safety class-
es that the staff would be able to attend.
Mr. Jordan confirmed that they do have
classes that staff has been involved in
and training is held at least every other
month. However, he noted most of the
incidents were accidents. Alderman Hill
asked if this is a calendar year policy.
Mr. Jordan stated the policy runs
October 1 through September 30 and
comes due the first of October. Ms. Hill
asked if this had been included in the
2013 budget. Mr. Jordan stated, yes it is,
however this part is for this coming year.
He said we cant really estimate what our
workmans comp will be as it depends on
if we have had a good or a bad year. If
we do not have enough, it is taken out of
the general fund. Mayor Connors noted
that with the renewal period now, we can
budget for it as it is in front of the budget
process.
Roll Call: Chappell, Wall, Kordus,
Hill, Kehoe, Kupsik, and Lyon voted
yes. Motion carried 7 to 0.
Resolution 14-R43, amending the
2014 Capital Projects Fund Budget for
the City of Lake Geneva.
Lyon/Kupsik motion to approve.
Alderman Lyon stated this is a final state-
ment of the projects, their amounts and
what is included in the 2014 Capital
Projects. He stated the council is essen-
tially lining up the monies approved for
borrowing against the capital budget list.
Alderman Kordus pointed out that
there is a $17,000 expenditure for
Library blinds. He said the council had
asked the Library Board to come forward
with three bids and they did not, but went
forward with the highest bid and already
spent the money. Mayor Connors asked
the City Attorney to address a recent arti-
cle in the Municipality explaining how a
Library Board functions. City Attorney
Draper said the Library Board has con-
trol of their funds and the city council
controls how much is given to the
Library. However, once it is funded to the
Library, they have the ability to spend it
as they see fit. Mr. Connors noted this is
similar to the Police and Fire Budget.
Alderman Wall stated he was
under the assumption the Library was to
obtain a third bid and bring it before the
council for final approval. He stated the
Library had asked for $17,000 and the
council asked for a third bid, however, he
was unsure if the Library had obtained
the third bid. He questioned how the
council could give out the money if they
had not received three bids. Mr.
Connors stated the $17,000 was a line
item that was on the capital borrowing
that council had already approved. Mr.
Wall replied this is not how it was stated
in the workshop and that the Library was
to come forward with a third bid. Mr. Wall
noted that otherwise, he would not have
voted for it at the workshop. Mr. Connors
stated if those were the reservations, the
amount should have been limited or cut
down at the capital workshop. Mr. Wall
said there were two bids, one of $17,000
and one of $9,000. Alderman Chappell
confirmed that this is what she under-
stood as well and it didnt mean that they
would get the full $17,000, just that it was
a maximum amount. Ms. Chappell
asked if they had come back with a third
bid. Mayor Connor stated they did not
come back to this body with the third bid.
There was further discussion if the
Library had or had not received a third
bid and what was included in the bids.
Mr. Wall stated he did not feel the pur-
chase of the Library blinds was a wise
use of taxpayers money as the Library
could have purchased two sets of blind
for the price they spent on one set.
Alderman Hill stated she agreed with Mr.
Wall as there was a large disparity in
what they were asking for and noted that
the vendor that was selected is one of
the most expensive in the area. She

Bulldogs football team loses in their rst postseason game in the last 10 years
Williams Bay dogged by Potosi Chieftains
By David Michels
sports@lakegenevanews.net
POTOSI Every dog may
have its day, but Friday certainly
wasnt the Bulldogs.
Williams Bay found that out to
their dismay as they were plagued
by an onslaught of explosive plays
in their 44-24 loss to the Potosi
Chieftains in their rst WIAA
Division 7 postseason appearance
in 10 years on Friday, Oct. 24.
The Chieftains struck quickly,
jumping out to a 7-0 lead before
their offense ever even touched
the eld.
After gaining a rst down, the
Bulldogs offense was forced to
punt less than two minutes into
their opening drive.
Potosis Brent Curtis elded
the punt, cut towards the sideline
and returned it 79 yards to the end
zone.
The rest of the rst half didnt
go much better for Williams Bay
as the Chieftains mercilessly
ripped off big play after big play,
vaulting ahead to a 37-3 halftime
lead.
Potosi quarterback Kyle Kaiser
compiled 164 yards and three
touchdowns on six-of-seven pass-
ing.
Curtis also gouged the Bull-
dogs on offense, rushing for 84
yards and a touchdown.
After halftime, the Bulldogs
focused on winning the half and
did just that.
After allowing Kaisers third
and nal touchdown midway
through the third quarter, Wil-
liams Bays offense started to
move the ball consistently and
maintain possession.
Senior Jacob Clark rushed
the ball for 15 yards on eight car-
ries and scored the rst Bulldogs
touchdown of the night on a two-
yard dive with 2:20 left in the
third quarter.
Williams Bay would score two
more touchdowns in the fourth
quarter before eventually falling
to the Chieftains.
We played hard, head coach
Derek Diehl said after the game.
It just comes down to Potosis a
bigger program. They have what,
18 seniors on their roster and the
kids have been lifting for four-
straight years and we start four
freshman. So anytime that you
have that, its going to be a favor-
able matchup for the team that
has those seniors.
Theyre strong, theyre fast,
theyre physical and we knew it,
but our kids didnt quit. They
kept the hammer down the best
we could and we moved the ball
in chunks, but Potosis senior
leadership and having so many
kids on the eld that have been in
the weight room for four years, it
showed.

Attended team tournament and sent doubles to individual state meet
Badgers tennis success
leads to state appearance
By David Michels
sports@lakegenevanews.net
MADISON Badgers tennis
team capped off a marvelous 2014
season with an appearance at
the WIAA Division 1 State Team
Tennis Tournament, their second
such trip in the past three years.
The Badger girls competed
against Neenah in the state quar-
ternals on Friday, Oct. 24, losing
0-7 to the eventual state runner-
up.
Overall, head coach Phil Laut-
erbach said that he thought his
girls played well, citing the state
tournament as a possible source
of prematch jitters.
I think the magnitude of the
event affected the play a little
bit, Lauterbach said. You know,
youre down and hundreds of
people are watching you, its loud
and youre playing against the
second best team in the state. So
I think it was denitely an expe-
rience for all of the girls, but I do
think that moment overwhelmed
us a little bit.
R e g a r d -
less of the out-
come and the
stiing state
a t mo s phe r e ,
Lauterbach was
pleased with his
teams effort.
Obviousl y
(Neenah is)
an extremely
strong team.
After they beat
us they went on
to beat Middle-
ton, last years
state champion,
and they n-
ished second
overall.
L a u t e r -
bach said that
his team obvi-
ously had an
extremely positive year and he
wants to improve upon the experi-
ence of reaching state and take it
to the next level, where he hopes
the Badgers can do more than just
reach the state tournament and
can truly impact it as well.
In addition to qualifying for
the team state tournament, the
Badgers had a pair of doubles
teams representing them at the
individual state tournament the
weekend before.
Badgers rst doubles team of
seniors Joan Williams and Andrea
Chironis (22-2) opened against
Sami Koppa and Lydia Moser of
Cedarburg in the round of 64.
Williams and Chironis
defeated the Cedarburg duo 6-1,
6-7 (4), (6) before moving on to
face Maria Mihailescu and Cris-
tina Villalovas of De Pere.
Williams and Chironis were
eliminated from the tournament
in the round of 32 by Mihailescu
and Villalovas 1-6, 3-6.
Senior Gillian Suhre and soph-
omore Joanne Walczynski (23-2)
made up the Badgers second dou-
bles team.
Suhre and Walczynski were
defeated in the opening round
by Stephanie Keryluk and Greta
Schmitz of the Verona area.

Alexandra Demco nishes fth, qualies as an individual for the state tournament
Big Foot freshman shines at sectionals
By David Michels
sports@lakegenevanews.net
PEWAUKEE In an oth-
erwise lackluster day for Big Foot
cross country, one young girl stole
the show for the Chiefs as she out-
distanced even her coachs wildest
expectations.
Big Foot freshman Alexandra
Zanzie Demco ourished in the
spotlight of the WIAA Division 2
Sectional Championships on Satur-
day, Oct. 25 as she nished rst for
the Chiefs and fth overall out of a
eld of 91 participants.
Tim Collins, athletic director
and head coach of Big Foot cross
country, was enamored of Demcos
performance on Saturday and has
been pleased by the young runners
work ethic all season long.
She started out the year as
probably our number three runner
and just continued to improve
every single meet, Collins said in
a phone interview. She proves that
hard work pays off. While some of
the girls worked as hard as she did,
nobody outworked her this year
and thats why shes in the spot shes
in now.
Demco nished the race with
a time of 20:25, approximately a
minute and a half faster than shes
run all year.
You can just see her getting
better and better every meet, every
practice, and not only is she a great
athelete, shes a great person, which
makes it even better, Collins said.
Demcos hard work paid major
dividends as she was the lone Big
Foot racer to qualify for the WIAA
State Meet on Saturday, Nov. 1.
Overall, the Chiefs nished
eighth with a score of 183.
Senior Libby Brooks nished
second for Big Foot, 23rd overall
with a time of 22:03.
Kathryn Colby, senior, nished
40th with a time of 22:50 and Kalen
Gillingham, junior, nished 57th
with a time of 23:54.
Sophomore Brooke Wellhau-
sen rounded out the scoring-ve for
Big Foot, nishing right on Gilling-
hams heels in 58th with a time of
23:55.
Alternates Olivia Briggs, soph-
omore, and Sarah Heath-Brost,
junior, nished 65th and 66th with
times of 24:12 and 24:13, respec-
tively.
While the Rock Valley Confer-
ence champions didnt run poorly,
Collins thought that his team could
have run better, saying that it could
be classied as an average day for
everyone with the exception of
Demco.
Big Foots boys struggled as
well, nishing
11th out of 14
schools.
S e n i o r
Fletcher Strahan
nished 28th
with a time of
18:31.
Bernie Ler-
chegger, sopho-
more, followed
Strahan, nish-
ing 37th with a time of 18:50.
Big Foots Travis Berryman,
sophomore, nished 56th with a
time of 19:47, Randy Robaczewski,
senior, nished 91st at 23:30, Jacob
Fort nished 92nd at 23:44 and
alternate Ben Nickel, senior, n-
ished 93rd with a time of 24:07.
They were also very aver-
age, Collins said. Nothing really
jumped out at us. We competed and
their season is, unfortunately, over
for now.
While the rest of the Chiefs
begin to plan their offseason work-
out regiments, Demco is still train-
ing hard as she prepares for the
state meet.
Zanzies going to state and
were just going to enjoy the moment
up there, Collins said. Obviously,
wed like her to nish in the top half.
If she can nish in the top half, I
believe there are 140 runners, and
if she can go top half that would be
great. I think as a 14-year old fresh-
man, you cant ask for much more.
Collins said that he knew
Demco had an overwhelming
amount of potential, but for her to
be performing as well as she has
in her rst year of high school has
taken him aback.
You could see it coming, he
said. But I didnt expect her to pop
like she did.

Badger boys CC
sends two to state
tournament

VERONA Badgers boys
cross country team has sped past
the competition through a wil-
derness of forest preserves and
hillsides en route to an appear-
ance at the WIAA Division 1 cross
country sectional on Saturday,
Oct. 25.
Their early success made it a
much more bitter pill to swallow
when the season ended for the
majority of the Badger runners
on Saturday.
The Badgers nished the sec-
tional in third place with a score
of 84 points, only ve more than
Janesville Craig who nished
second with 79.
We always say some guys
rise to the occasion and some
guys dont quite rise, Badger
head coach Mike Butscher said
in a phone interview. I think
we had three guys really rise to
the occasion and that was Alex
(Martinez), Miguel (Barrera) and
Sam (Carmona), and then the
other guys just had OK races. You
know, we needed them to have
good races and they just had OK
races.
Martinez, senior, nished rst
for the Badgers and third overall,
clocking in with a time of 16:24.
Carmona, senior, came in
10th with a time of 17:05 and Bar-
rera, sophomore, nished right
behind Carmona at 12th with a
time of 17:18.
The nal four Badgers pack
ran relatively far back behind the
rest.
Junior Cody Sadikoff nished
29th with a time of 17:53. Sopho-
more Mario Gomez was 30th at
17:55, Gustavo Gordillo, fresh-
man, was 33rd at 17:56 and senior
Eric Krause nished 39th with a
time of 18:11.
The third place nish elimi-
nated the Badger squad from con-
tention for qualifying for the state

in the fourth
quarter of
Sat ur day s
contest.
I t
w o u l d n t
be enough
however, as the Hawks soared
past the Badgers to a 41-26 vic-
tory.
Badger drew first blood
late in the opening quarter as
VanDeVelde crossed the goal
line on a three-yard touchdown
run, but Badgers porous defense
was futile in its attempts to stop
Hawks running back Cameron
Bishop.
Bishop carried the ball 23
times for 157 yards and four
touchdowns, three of which were
scored in the first half.
Badgers quarterback Mick
Borchert completed three-of-
seven passes for 103 yards, two
touchdowns and an interception.
Borcherts first touchdown of
the day was a 64 yard completion
to Isaac Ziervogel, and it came
with five minutes remaining in
the second quarter.
Ziervogel had two receptions
for 66 yards and a touchdown
in the game. He also ran for 15
yards on four carries.
Borcherts touchdown pass
kept Badger within shouting dis-
tance of Kenosha Indian Trail as
the Hawks entered halftime with
a 28-13 lead. His second scor-
ing pass made the game a one
possession contest in the third
quarter.
Badger receiver Chase Craig
hooked in the pass from Borchert
and took it 47 yards to the end
zone.
As the Hawks grip on the
game seemingly started to slip
away, their offense rallied and
produced two more scoring
drives.
Kenosha Indian Trail quar-
terback Lane Ochs drove the
Hawks down the field and tossed
a 26 yard touchdown to receiver
Christian Jones early in the
fourth quarter to reinforce their
lead.
Five minutes later, Kenosha
Indian Trail was knocking on the
door again before Bishop plowed
across the goal line for his fourth
and final score of the night,
cementing the win as the Hawks
went up 41-20 with 4:58 to play.
VanDeVelde ended the game
by breaking a 76 yard run for pay
dirt but it did nothing to change
the outcome.
The Badgers finished their
season at 4-6 overall, 4-3 in the
Southern Lakes Conference.
The enigmatic Badgers
opened with three consecutive
losses before going on a three
game win streak against SLC
opponents in the 2014 season.
While facing numerous inju-
ries at key positions, particularly
tailback, they streaked up and
down all season.
Ziervogel led the team in
passing for the season with 451
yards, while he and Borchert tied
each other with three touchdown
passes apiece.
VanDeVelde was the Badgers
leading rusher with 434 yards
and five touchdowns this season.
Ziervogel ranked second with
424 yards.
Myriad injuries thrust
numerous running backs into
the starting line up for Badger
this season, however, result-
ing in Tristan Steiner and Zane
Zachary each tallying more than
300 yards rushing and James
Patrick Quinn totalling 206.
Quinn also was the teams
leading receiver with 189 yards
and a touchdown on just nine
receptions.
Defensively, Nick Kretsch
had 55 tackles and Mason
Dumez had two interceptions,
both team-highs.

Big Foot loses to Edgerton in Regional Final after defeating Whitewater to advance
Chiefs swept away by the Tide
By David Michels

Big Foot vol-
leyballs erratic
season con-
cluded as the
Chiefs run
through region-
als was halted
by a loss in the
nals to the
Edgerton Red
Tide 0-3 on Sat-
urday, Oct. 25,
just two days
after escaping
Whitewater in a
pulse-pounding
3-2 victory on
Thursday.
The Chiefs
defeated the
Whippets after
rallying back
from being
behind 1-2 through three sets.
Theyre a tough team, Big
Foot head coach Caitlin Dowden
said. I mean to battle, theyre
huge, and it really took a lot for
our team. When we calmed down,
we pushed through and when we
were frantic, we played frantic, so
as soon as we calmed it went ne.
Its a big win for our team.
After a sluggish start resulted
in a 16-25 loss of the rst set, the
Chiefs and Whippets played an
extremely aggressive match, trad-
ing points back and forth as each
team vied for an edge.
The Chiefs rallied to win the
second set 26-24 only to lose the
third 22-25 and fall behind 1-2.
A large portion of Big Foots
early struggles is attributed to
errors as the Chiefs accumulated
eight serving errors, ve dig-
ging errors and 11 serve receiving
errors.
Dowden said she noticed a
major change in the psyche of her
team in relation to how they would
have reacted to falling behind
early in the year.
Its huge, she said. Our team
at the beginning of the season
would have shut the doors and
said were done and then been
done with it. For us to be able to
come back, its huge. Id like to
be able to be in a situation where
were up and we can go, but to get
a win when youre down is big.
Big Foot bounced back in a big
way as they took the fourth and
fth sets 25-15 and 15-13, respec-
tively.
The Chiefs offensive attack
was led by senior Rachel Heiden-
reich with 14 kills as she averaged
2.8 per set.
Samara Enz, senior, followed
Heidenreich with nine kills on 34
attempts, a team-high hit percent-
age of .147.
Sophomore Gloria Esarco reg-
istered three assists on the night,
the most of any Big Foot player.
After the match, Dowden
highlighted junior Morgan Stalker
as one of the key contributors for
Big Foot throughout their region-
als campaign.
Morgan Stalker, our libero,
has stepped in and she didnt
play there the (regular) season,
Dowden said. Shes played there
for the last couple of matches and
for her to step in and to pass well
and be aggressive, its huge. Its
something that we needed.
Stalker had 15 digs, received
20 serves and had an assist
through the ve sets.
Heidenreich led the Chiefs
with 28 serves received and 20
digs.
Senior Ally Mazur followed
closely with 18 digs and also had
30 assists, a team high.
The win qualied Big Foot
for the regional nals on Satur-
day, Oct. 25 against the one-seed
Crimson Tide in Edgerton.
The Chiefs struggled to gain
any ground against the Tide in
Saturdays match, dropping three
straight sets by scores of 14-25,
23-25, 16-25.
The loss signals the close
of the volleyball season for Big
Foot, but the bitter end in no way
diminishes the Chiefs accom-
plishments.
Despite nishing with an over-
all record of 16-27-1, the Chiefs
secured a share of the Rock Valley
- South title in Dowdens rst year
coaching the Chiefs with a 9-1
conference record.
The conference crown kept
with tradition, continuing a long
line of six straight RVC South
championships.

WIAA regional matchup against
the Waterford Wolverines on

The Badgers and the Wol-
verines clashed as Waterford
repeatedly defeated Badger in
the waning moments of each set.
Badger dropped three in a

Chiefs fall in Jefferson
By David Michels
sports@lakegenevanews.net
JEFFERSON One week
after Big Foots monumental Rock
Valley Conference win-streak
came to an end against Brodhead,
the Chiefs slipped into a two-
game skid with their 43-28 playoff
loss at the hands of the Jefferson
Eagles.
A number of Big Foot support-
ers were irked when the WIAAs
seeding was announced and they
found that the Chiefs had been
bumped to the Division 3 level.
Despite having already beaten
the Eagles at Jefferson in the regu-
lar season, Big Foots squad found
themselves on the road again.
Big Foot scored the rst
points of the game with 9:28 to
play in the second quarter when
senior quarterback Brett Morris
connected with junior receiver
Michael Heidenreich for a 19-yard
touchdown, but they wouldnt
hold the lead for long.
Jefferson managed to reel
off three-straight touchdown
drives, pulling ahead 21-7 midway
through the third quarter.
I think the kids fought and
worked hard, I dont think there
was a lack of effort or anything
in what they were doing, rst-
year head coach Greg Enz said in
a phone interview. I think at the
end of the day that were not dis-
appointed in that regard. I think
we just got into a game where we
needed to stop them defensively
and in the second half we couldnt
come up with a stop and the score
reected that. And offensively, I
think we did some good things. In
the rst half we left a touchdown
on the board and in the second half
we just had to play catch up and
I think there were a couple times
that we forced a couple plays, but
I dont blame the kids for having
done that because youre trying
to make something happen. And
when you want to make a play
and you try a
little too hard,
the result isnt
always what you
as the coach or
they as the play-
ers want, but we
just got into a
game where we
had to be perfect
and be incred-
ibly efcient
from an offen-
sive standpoint
and a defensive
standpoint they
just continued
to move the ball
and eat clock.
The Eagles
kept the ball out
of the hands of
the Chiefs by
employing a steadfast run game
and Big Foot wasnt able to score
again until ve minutes left in the
third quarter when Morris bar-
relled into the end zone from the
one yard line.
Jeffersons a very methodi-
cal team run-game wise, Enz
said. And from a statistical stand
point, we actually outgained them
in total yardage but the fact of
the matter is that we just couldnt
take them off the eld in a timely
manner. The time of possession
was more than two to one I think,
I think they controlled the ball
between 33 and 35 minutes of the
game to our 15, so I think that was
probably the disappointing part of
it. We were able to move the ball,
but we couldnt stop them from
moving the ball.
The Chiefs amassed 373 yards
of offense in the game in compari-
son to Jeffersons 365 yards.
Heidenreich hauled in two
more touchdown passes from
Morris in the fourth quarter, but
their decit was simply too big
to make up, especially with Jef-
fersons three pronged rushing
attack of Gabriel Horn, Jack Cin-
cotta and Garrett Blaeske.
Heidenreich nished the game
with six receptions for 122 yards
and three touchdowns.
Morris went 11-for-22 passing
with 154 yards, three touchdowns
and two interceptions. He also
rushed for 66 yards and a score on
eight carries.
Brett Morris had a real good
football game in many ways,
throwing the ball; running it, Enz
said. Then Michael Heidenreich, I
think he tied a school record with
three touchdown receptions in the
game, so he really had a nice foot-
ball game as well.
Enz also lauded Quinlan
Dixon for his play on both sides of
the ball in Fridays contest, saying
that Dixon gave an absolutely
impressive performance.
Dixon carried the football for
a team-high 72 yards, averaging
10.3 yards per carry. He also had
13 tackles for the defense.
Defensive back Anthony Wil-
liams led the team with 15 tackles
and William Utesch and Zakery
Greco each tallied a sack.
With the loss, 2014s Rock
Valley - South co-conference
champions bowed out of the play-
offs, but the Chiefs ended their
season with no regrets.
I think you have to say it was
a success, Enz said of his rst
season at the helm of Big Foots
football team. These kids had set
a goal for a conference title. They
obviously wanted more than that
and I dont disagree that there is
a level of disappointment amongst
them and myself, that I think we
thought we could have done more,
but all and all, for a group of kids
that had to go through a change,
a staff that had to go through
change with myself coming in,
and they were able to accomplish
what they did in really a short
amount of time when you think
about it, I think it speaks volumes
to them and everybody who was
associated with the season.

In the fourth quarter the Bull-
dogs perseverance paid off as
senior quarterback John Higgins
Jr. scored two touchdowns, one
a 26-yard pass to Andrew Breen
and the other a seven-yard touch-
down run.
Diehl said that Higgins big
performances had become kind
of an expectation, that hes a great
player and that they are going to
miss him dearly next year.
Andrew Breen looked great,
came up with some nice catches,
Diehl added. I love seeing him
ying over the top and coming
down with the ball in double cov-
erage.
Breen had ve catches for 98
yards and a touchdown.
Higgins nished the game
with 14-of-34 passing for 213
yards, a touchdown and an inter-
ception. He also led the team with
71 rushing yards.
Michael Guss picked up 21
rushing yards as well. Guss also
had 57 receiving yards, jump-
starting a number of Williams Bay
drives when the offense looked
ready to stall.
Diehl said that despite their
improved showing in the second
half, the Bulldogs didnt make any
drastic overhauls at halftime.
Not too many changes. Offen-
sively, we didnt change much at
all.
Defensively, we made a slight
adjustment, put another line-
backer back, took one off of pres-
sure because going into this week
we knew we didnt match up well
with Potosi since they were so
strong and physical, so we over-
loaded the box and tried to shoot
every gap. Hence, sometimes
the plays worked out well for us
for losses and other times theyd
break a tackle and go, and we
knew that going in, however, there
wasnt much of a defensive change
except for the fact is that Potosi
came one-dimensional a little bit
more.
Diehl called them an honor-
able program for not running up
the score, relying heavily on run-
ning the ball in the second half to
burn the clock.
Jacob Clark, the senior line-
man Alex Guss, Andrew Olson,
they just looked great. Diehl said.
In addition to four tackles,
Olson blocked a punt and recov-
ered the ball in the fourth quarter,
setting up a short eld for Wil-
liams Bays offense.
Alex Guss spent the game
clogging Potosis run lanes, snag-
ging a tackle in the process.
With Fridays loss, the Bull-
dogs concluded their rst trip to
the Trailways - Small Conference
playoffs, but Diehl doesnt want
his team to forget everything that
theyve learned and been through
now that the season is over.
The season, its basically a
mirror of life, Diehl said. We had
ups and downs. We had adver-
sity weve overcome, we pushed
through and weve learned. Its
just a representation of life all
piled into four months. So if any-
thing, I hope we learned from it.
Seniors who take that on to life
skills, if they go on to play col-
lege football, great. If they dont,
the things and principles that we
learned here in Williams Bay foot-
ball and in our school, I just hope
they utilize those things in their
lives later on and anytime things
get tough for them, they remem-
ber this season. We were able to
push through some adversity and
become one of the top teams in
the state and thats what making
the playoffs is.
As for a possible return to
the playoffs, Diehl made sure to
keep his feet rmly planted on the
ground as he begins planning for
next season.
One step at a time, Diehl
said, laughing. One step at a
time.

Obviously, it was a great
accomplishment, Lauterbach
said. Our one doubles team, it
was (Williams and Chironis)
fourth year back to the state
tournament which is tremen-
dous. Very few teams can say
that. And obviously, our two
doubles had to win the sectional
tournament to get to the state
tournament, and they finished
the season reaching the goal that
they had set the first day of prac-
tice, to win conference and go
to the state tournament. So you
know, they were able to check
those off and were able to reach
them.
Lauterbach said that in all his
time as the head coach of Badger
tennis he had never been a part
of a team that sent two doubles
teams to the state tournament,
and he was elated to be a part of
that achievement.
When asked what he thought
of the entire 2014 season, Laut-
erbach said, I think it has been
very, very good.
I dont want to use the word
overachieve but I think that
throughout the season we con-
tinued to improve, and at the
end of the season we played our
best tennis. I think everybody
throughout the season played to
their potential and kept improv-
ing on their potential all season
he said.
Lauterbach said that despite
losing their first conference
match, the girls didnt back down
and continued to gain momen-
tum in the Southern Lakes
Conference tournament before
ultimately hitting their stride at
sectionals.
I definitely think that we
reached our goals this year as far
as going to the team state tour-
nament, which is a very lofty
goal, and we were able to do that,
so I think we had an extremely
successful season. he said.
We were one of eight teams
left out of a boatload of schools.
We were one of the eight teams
left. Like I said, tremendous
season.
We qualified last year and
we thought this was an even a
better year to qualify, Butscher
said. But its tough when you
get to those meets. Its a differ-
ent kind of competition because
everyone kind of gets after it,
you know? We had a couple real
young guys running, which is
good for us for the future but
that inexperience might have
hurt them a little bit, they went
out kind of quick. So they didnt
run quite as well as they would
have liked.
Despite the team failing to
qualify, Badger High School will
still be represented at the state
tournament by individual quali-
fiers, Martinez and Carmona.
Butscher said that while most
sports do, this sport for sure,
rewards those who work hard
and Martinez and Carmona are
the two hardest working guys
the Badgers have.
Theyve been doing this for
three years, running all year
round, so it was neat for them
to get the reward. I was more
impressed with how sad they
were that their team wasnt
going. They were genuinely sad,
Butscher said.
Butscher also added that he
was positive that Martinez and
Carmona would represent the
school well, but he was most
proud of them for the selfless-
ness they displayed in wanting
their teammates to join them at
the state meet.
Its just a whole lot more fun
for them when the whole teams
there, he said.
Of his expectations for Bad-
gers two left standing, Butscher
said that it would be great if
Martinez could finish in the top
15 and Carmona in the top 40.
I really think those would
each be two very strong races for
those two guys.
Regardless of how their 2014
season ended, the Badgers have
no cause to hang their heads
after a largely successful season.
I would say we had a good
year. I think sometimes, for most
sports, most teams end with a
loss and thats hard, Butscher
said. We did some reflection
and we looked at our team goals
going into the year and our team
goals are, first and foremost, we
want to raise men of high char-
acter and we feel like we did a
good job of that. Our second
goal was to win conference and
I dont think its ever been done
in our school history, or even in
the conference history, where
there have been seven guys from
the same team all-conference,
so thats unheard of and that we
were pretty happy with.
Butscher said that all of the
Badgers were obviously dis-
sapointed with how the season
ended.
The coaches tell their runners
dont ever get beat by someone
whos worse than you and while
not taking anything away from
Janesville Craig, Butscher said
that he felt Badger had the better
team this year.
(Janesville Craig) ran a great
race and are a great program and
theyve been to state nine of the
past 10 years. I just feel like we
ran, like I said, OK. We needed
to run good and I think we would
have beat them, Butscher said.
Id say we had a good year
but that last meet leaves a bad
taste in your mouth.

FOR NATE. On Oct. 17 through 19, the Moelter farm hosted a Boy Scout
Camporee. Several troops came from Wisconsin and Illinois to participate.
Among the scheduled events was the dedication of a ag pole that was
crafted out of a 40-foot Hickory tree. The ceremony was for Nate Walter,
an Eagle Scout from Genoa City Troop 236, who was killed in a tragic
accident last year. Pictured are (from left to right) Frank Guske Jr. Michelle
and Scott Walter (Nates mother and father), Emily Walter (Nates sister)
and Kelly and Rick Blada. After Nates father spoke of his sons passion
for scouting, the 5-foot-by-8-foot ag was raised to half-mast for the
remainder of the day to honor Nate.
Beutlich a McNair Scholar
Marcy Beutlich, a junior psychology major from
Elkhorn, has been selected as a UW-Whitewater
McNair Scholar.
The program prepares rst-generation and mul-
ticultural students for graduate studies and even-
tual careers as university professors. Each student is
assigned a faculty mentor within their major to enhance
resources that benet research and critical thinking
skills.
The McNair Scholars are very on top of their tasks
this year and are eager to continue to further their nd-
ings, Christopher Maniece, graduate assistant for the
program, said. When our students conduct research,
they are not only working on those skills, but also on
how to present their ndings to a wide array of people.
After being selected, each McNair Scholar spends
eight weeks at UW-Whitewater during the summer
in order to conduct undergraduate research. Later
on, they will have the opportunity to present at the
National Conference on Undergraduate Research and
UW-Whitewater Undergraduate Research Day. The
following summer consists of the McNair Scholars par-
ticipating in external research internships at a different
university for six to 10 weeks.

Why we play it safe with election letters
We dont print letters to
the editor regarding elec-
tions or referendums
the week prior to an election.
Our reasoning: We want
to avoid any chance of a
grievous error being made
that might affect how you
vote.
As a result, Ive rejected
several letters voicing opin-
ions about the Lake Geneva
parking structure and the
Williams Bay School referendum
that showed up this week. All let-
ters were rejected regardless of
the side they took.
We expect the facts to be
straight in our news stories. At
least we try our best. But our
opinion section is different, more
prone to errors.
Normally we allow people
to have their say in letters to the
editor and let the reader decide
w h o s
right and
w h o s
wrong.
A
g r i e v -
ous error
in one
per s on s
mind may
be the
truth in
anothers.
And facts too often rest uncom-
fortably between a lie and simply
a vigorous opinion.
When mistakes are made most
of the time theyre not on the eve
of an election.
Then the stakes are higher and
theres no chance for a correction.
And, in deadline journalism,
mistakes do happen.
Most of us know about Dewey
defeats Truman. Thats the head-
line the Chicago Tribune printed
after the 1948 election. And it was
wrong.
Ive heard of the headline
about a crime on top of a story
about a politician.
Or even a politicians picture
being swapped with the dog of the
week.
How can these things happen?
Newspapers are run by humans.
And humans make mistakes. Its
happened to the best newspapers
in the world. It can happen to us.
I also tried to live by the rule,
too. I ran my opinion in last weeks
paper.
So in essence we have a buffer
week.
I can correct a statement I
made last week about a road run-
ning behind the Lake Geneva Util-
ity building connecting Geneva
Street hadnt been discussed in a
dozen years. A former member of
the city council corrected me. It
was last discussed six years ago.
And were running the entire
list of TIF ideas on our website, so
people know whats on it.
Hopefully, by now, all sides of
the issue were explored on both
the Williams Bay School and the
parking structure referendum
over the last two years.
We tried to alert readers of our
letters policy. We ran it several
times. Were sorry some people
missed it.
We ran two ads on the parking
structure. That may look hypo-
critical; it may be. And the irony is
both advertisers would have lived
with the policy. Next year, Ill look
at expanding the ban to include
late ads, too.
I dont think either one of them
had a grievous error.
On another election note:
Signs against the parking
structure have shown up about
town. Only to be removed just as
quickly. Letters have been distrib-
uted door-to-door.
The issue is not what was said.
But we wondered if it was against
election laws as no attribution was
printed on the material.
So we asked the Government
Accountability Ofce. If an indi-
vidual or group spends more than
$2,500 on their campaign, they
must put paid for by he or she.
The authors probably didnt
spend that much, so dont have to
register as a political action com-
mittee.
Or identify who they are.
Its just never made any sense
to me, why people want to hide
what they believe in.
Halverson is editor and gen-
eral manager of the Regional
News.
Former recipient seeks help for another
Dear W.C.,
You provided
help to my family
two years ago when
my daughter was
so ill and in the
hospital.
My daugh-
ter still has many
medical needs but
we manage to get
by. My husband is
working full-time
and some side jobs
so we have enough to at least pay
our rent and utilities.
I am not writing you asking
for help for my family. I am writ-
ing to you to ask if you could help
a mother I met while our children
were in intensive care at the same
time.
She has just begun this long
road of caring for a sick child as
her daughter is just a newborn
with health challenges ahead of
her.
We got to be friends while
going through this ordeal together.
There is nothing that can prepare
you for the sight of your child in
a hospital bed with all kinds of
tubes and wires attached to her.
We spent long hours talking
while our children fought for their
lives.
When my
daughter was
released we
exchanged phone
numbers and I told
her to call me if she
ever needed some-
one to talk to. She
called me yesterday
because she needed
someone to talk to.
Her car had
broken down and
she had not been able to pay her
rent due to losing her job over the
amount of time she had to take off
to care for her daughter.
My friend said she would be
evicted next week and was wor-
ried her car would not make it
back and forth to the hospital.
I told her about The Time Is
Now to Help and offered to write
you a letter.
Is there any way you could
help my friend like you helped me
and my family?
Dear Readers,
I remembered the woman that
had written this letter and the
special circumstances her family
was struggling with.
I knew they probably still had
a daily struggle with their own
medical and nancial needs. It
was a seless thing to ask for help
for someone ahead of your own
needs. I also thought of how self-
less it is to care for a sick child
every day of your life.
Many of the recipients of our
assistance are caregivers that give
of themselves every day.
Most are thrust into their role
of caregiver by the needs of a sick
child or an elderly relative.
Many have to give up their
jobs to take on this role. This only
adds nancial stress to an already
traumatic situation.
I called the woman and we
spoke for a few minutes, catching
up on her daughters and the fam-
ilys progress.
She was adamant that her own
family did not need help.
She only wanted The Time Is
Now to Help to bring the same
sense of nancial stress relief to
her friend that we had provided
for them two years ago.
The woman again told me
how we had changed their lives
and provided them the assistance
they had needed to get through an
incredibly difcult time. She pro-
vided me the name, address and
phone number for her friend in
need.
I called the friend and she
answered immediately. She
explained she had been waiting
for a call from a new specialist
for her baby and knew it would
come from an unknown number.
She apologized as she told me she
would have to hang up imme-
diately if another incoming call
interrupted our conversation.
I assured her I completely
understood that she must not
miss that important phone call. I
asked the mother some questions
about the babys condition, not
sure if she wanted to share all the
personal details.
She immediately opened up
and shared all the medical facts.
The baby had several birth
defects and complications to deal
with and would have a long road
ahead. The mother told me she
was a single mother and did not
have anyone to fall back on for
support, other than the friend she
had met in the hospital that knew
what she was going through, and
had offered to write us a letter in
her behalf.
The babys father had died in
a motorcycle crash when she was
just three months pregnant. I
could hear she was crying when
she told me about the loss of her
boyfriend and the babys father.
She told me how happy they both
were to nd out she was pregnant.
The mother told me about her
difcult pregnancy that only got
worse after his death and how she
blamed the stress and grief on the
premature birth and health prob-
lems.
I could hear in her voice she
was under a great amount of
stress.
I agreed to meet the mother at
the hospital that afternoon to go
over her nancial situation. She
admitted she had slept in her car
the previous night in the hospital
parking lot due to being worried
the car would not make it back
and forth to her home.
I arrived and found the car in
the space she had told me it would
be. The mother was waiting inside
the car and opened her door after
I showed her my identication
and introduced myself.
I asked if she would like to go
talk in the cafeteria, and we could
get something to eat.
The mother said, I cannot
afford to eat in the cafeteria. I
told her I would like to buy her
lunch.
It looks like the federal government is trying to keep
closer tabs on its money. Last December the U.S. Ofce
of Management and Budget (OMB) issued comprehen-
sive grant reform rules entitled Uniform Administrative
Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit Requirements for
Federal Awards.
Contrary to what the
length of the title would sug-
gest, the stated intent of the
effort, according to the OMB,
is to consolidate the existing
grant rules and reduce the
administrative burden for
agencies that receive federal
grants. Eight separate circu-
lars or rule books governing
how grant money must be
handled and accounted for are being combined into one
super or omni circular. I thought I was familiar was most
government jargon, but I will admit this is the rst time I
have ever heard the term omni-circular. Im skeptical that
anything called an omni-circular is going to make life sim-
pler, but if we want federal money, and we do, were going
to have to get with the program.
New rules increase
red tape, safeguards

COMMUNITY & COMMENTARY
Have fun making some treats
for a fall party and try to have
some children helping out with
the project. These can be taken
to school or a potluck or served
at home and all have a bit of fun
attached to them.
Microwave Caramel Corn uses
a brown paper grocery bag as part
of the preparation. The caramel
mixture is done in the microwave,
poured over the popped corn in the
bag and processed, then shaken
up and processed some more.
Several helping hands make
Bear Track Cookies more quickly.
Peanut halves are placed indi-
vidually into the dropped cookie
mounds to make the claws. A
surprise ingredient in the cookie
dough is fortied chocolate-a-
vored syrup, like Ovaltine.
Haystacks come in many vari-
eties, all unbaked and using chow
mein noodles.
This mixture of chunky peanut
butter, chocolate chips and min-
iature marshmallows is poured
over the noodles and dropped into
small mounds.
A savory snack, Beefy Pop-
corn is dressed with a mixture of
chopped dried beef that has been
shredded and sauteed in butter.
The mixture makes a good con-
trast with many sweet snacks.

Nearly 16 percent of the
money spent by Walworth County
government comes from state and
federal sources. Put another way,
if we continued to offer the pro-
grams we do, without grant funds,
the county tax levy would jump by
$21.7 million.
Ive heard two explanations
for OMBs latest project; the rst
is that the Feds are doing noth-
ing new, but merely reorganizing
existing rules.
The second explanation, and
the one that I believe is closer to
the mark, is that the federal gov-
ernment will be scrutinizing how
state and local units of govern-
ment spend federal money far
more carefully than it has in the
past.
Walworth County has a fair
amount of work to do to ensure
that our own ordinances and
forms are in place before the new
federal rules go into effect, which
happens to be the day after Christ-
mas.
We are in better shape than
many other counties in achieving
compliance, however, because we
have developed a centralized pro-
curement process over the years.
Purchasing and contracting gure
prominently into the new federal
mandates.
Unlike cities, county govern-
ment has traditionally been highly
decentralized.
It is not unusual, in many
counties, for individual depart-
ments to apply for grants and buy
things on their own with little
oversight by their boards.
Over the past 12 years or so,
Walworth County has imposed
more or less uniform rules on
grants and purchasing.
This increased oversight was
not always popular with our man-
agers, who preferred the exibility
of having very few rules. The old
system had many problems, how-
ever, including the fact that we
missed out on volume discounts
when each department acted as its
own purchasing agent. Competi-
tive bidding, moreover, was a hit-
or-miss proposition and the time
spent by individual employees to
search for bargains and even drive
to the store to pick items up was
never gured into the nal price.
Centralizing our procurement
process solved these issues and
now gives us a leg up in comply-
ing with the new federal require-
ments.
Because we have a well-doc-
umented purchasing system, we
dont need to create one from
scratch. We need only tweak exist-
ing ordinances to comply with the
federal standards.
One of the rst planning ques-
tions that we faced was whether to
operate under a single set of rules
or create two different purchasing
systems; one for spending federal
dollars and another when only
county or state funds are being
used.
We opted to extend the federal
requirements to all of our pur-
chases.
The downside of doing this
is that it will create even more
requirements for vendors and
staff to follow. The danger of not
making the rules uniform, how-
ever, is twofold: rst, it creates
two systems that workers must
understand; secondly, and more
importantly, it creates the pos-
sibility that an incorrect process
will be followed when federal
money is involved.
It is not always apparent when
federal funds are being spent. In
some cases, grants that we receive
from the state are actually fed-
eral dollars that the state passes
through to us. In those cases, the
county is a sub-recipient and the
OMB omni-circular would apply
to our use of that money.
We will do our best to fully
comply with the new OMB rules
by the December due date. Like
any new program, we expect well
learn as we go along.
Hopefully, the accountants
and agencies that audit our pro-
grams will take this into consid-
eration, but we cant count on it;
the stakes of losing grant dollars
are high.
Complying with the federal
grant regulations will require
effort from both county staff and
the vendors that we rely on to pro-
vide vital services. I expect to hear
complaints about the additional
red tape created by the rules. I
have two answers to this criti-
cism; rst, it isnt a choice. If we
want to receive federal money, we
will need to comply. Secondly, it is
hard to argue with the overall goal
of the omni-circular, which is to
carefully account for tax dollars.
It is impossible to have things
both ways. Those who criticize red
tape are the same people who are
outraged when waste or fraud are
uncovered in government con-
tracts.
OMBs omni-circular will
result in some additional rules;
ensuring that government pur-
chasing is done in a transparent
and accountable manner, how-
ever, is in the interest of all tax-
payers.

column are those of the author

Supervisors.
Bretl/New rules add work, but should improve government transparency
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1D
While researching primary sources
for this column, I necessarily learned
more about Lake Genevas history than
I ever knew before. For example, it
became clear to me that Lake Genevas
history between 1837 and the Civil War
is not appreciably different from that
of most small towns in southern Wis-
consin, which were founded in the late
1830s and early 1840s after the Potawa-
tomi Native Americans were removed
from the area. In hindsight, I might have
surmised that Geneva (as it was called
then) located on one of the most beautiful lakes in the
world would eventually come to have a far different
history than other nearby towns such as Spring Prairie
or Sharon. A brief foreshadowing of Lake Genevas des-
tiny occurred between 1856 and 1860 when the rst rail
connection was completed, linking the small town with
the rapidly growing metropolis of Chicago 80 miles to
the southeast. But bad track caused the railroad to cease
running, and the Civil War intervened.
The Civil War profoundly affected Geneva, both neg-
atively and positively. Of the 100 or so young men from
the Geneva area who joined Company F of the 4th Wis-
consin Infantry when the Civil War began in 1861, few
returned.
Many were killed or seriously wounded 1,000 miles
to the south in May and June of 1863 when the 4th Wis-
consin was one of many Union regiments that assaulted
the Confederate stronghold of Port Hudson, La., on the
Mississippi River. The 4th Wisconsin Infantry was dev-
astated and had to be reformed as the 4th Wisconsin
Cavalry.
Young men from the Geneva area also joined two
other companies, Company C of the 22nd Wisconsin
Infantry and Company K of the 49th Wisconsin Infantry,
as well as many other Union regiments.
The 22nd and 49th Wisconsin fared better during
the Civil War than the 4th Wisconsin. Most of the mem-
bers of the regiments returned to the Geneva area after
the Civil War ended. These Civil War veterans and veter-
ans of the Union regiments from New York, Pennsylva-
nia, Ohio, Minnesota, Iowa and Missouri would play key
roles in forging Genevas history between the close of the
Civil War in 1865 and the beginning of the 20th century.
The years 1865 to 1871 saw Geneva return to normal.
Eighty-eight miles to the southeast, the rapidly growing
metropolis of Chicago was booming. The Civil War had
massively expanded Chicagos economy, especially in the
meatpacking and clothes manufacturing sectors, which
produced much of the food and uniforms for the Union
army. Chicagos favorable location at on Lake Michigan,
where a water route provided access to the Illinois River
and ultimately to the Mississippi River, made it an ideal
location for the transportation of agricultural products,
primarily grain and beef, which were shipped to Chicago
from farms throughout the Midwest via railroads, boats,
and wagons, then processed, loaded onto the lake schoo-
ners or freight cars, and shipped to Eastern cities. Chi-
cagos excellent location had ensured its development as
the heart of the nations rapidly expanding rail network.
These developments all fueled a booming economy in
Chicago, which in turn created a rising class of wealthy
entrepreneurs. It was this newly rich class that would
have a profound impact on Geneva, transforming it
from an ordinary small Midwest town into the prosper-
ous small city that it would become during the last three
decades of the 19th century.
Lake Genevas 19th century history was determined
by the intersection of three factors: the rise of Chicago,
which, during and after the Civil War, had rapidly
become one of the major cities in the world; Genevas
proximity to the booming metropolis; and the extraor-
dinary beauty of the deep lake upon which Geneva was
situated a beauty that had been largely ignored during
the rst three decades of the villages existence.
Flush with their newly acquired fortunes, several
members of the nouveau riche class in Chicago began to
look for suitable venues where they and
their families could escape from Chi-
cagos heat, noise and congestion during
the summers. In their vanguard was
George Sturges, who had made his for-
tune by owning grain elevators. Sturges
discovered a beautiful lake located only
80 miles from Chicago. He purchased a
home that was built on the shore at the
head of the northwest bay of the beauti-
ful lake from the widow of Asa Farr, an
attorney in the small village. (Farr, an
ofcer in the Union army, tragically had
been murdered in cold blood by William Quantrill and
his notorious band of Confederate guerillas in Baxter
Springs, Kan., on Oct. 6, 1863.)
Sturges installed his family in the Farr house on
Main Street in Geneva overlooking the lake. He also pur-
chased more land on the western shore of Geneva Bay
and began construction of a large summer home, which
he named Snug Harbor (todays Covenant Harbor).
George Sturges was soon joined by his newly rich broth-
ers, Shelton and Buckingham Sturges, who also pur-
chased land on the northwest shore of Geneva Bay and
began construction of summer homes. The three Sturges
brothers were followed by many other members of Chi-
cagos newly-rich class.
But on Oct. 8, 1871, everything changed. The Great
Chicago Fire occurred, destroying much of downtown
Chicago. Some of the newly minted millionaires who
owned summer homes and estates on the shores of
Geneva Lake lost their Chicago homes when they burned
to the ground. They were compelled to live in their
summer homes on the shores of Geneva Lake as their
Chicago homes were being rebuilt.
Word quickly spread among Chicagos wealthy about
the virtues of owning estates on the shores of Geneva
Lake and dozens bought property on the lakes shore and
commenced building summer homes. In many respects
they were emulating the rich of the eastern seaboard
cities who had built massive summer mansions (ironi-
cally called cottages) in Newport, R.I.
The transformation of the village of Geneva during
the 1870s is well-documented in the U.S. censuses of
1870 and 1880. In Geneva, there was a marked increase
in the number of carpenters, masons, laborers and other
building tradesmen living in the village, many of whom
were employed building the summer mansions that
began to ring the lake. The 1880 census records a dra-
matic increase in the number of servants, gardeners, and
nannies living in the village.
The restoration of rail service from Chicago to
Geneva in 1871 was a watershed in the transformation
of the village as it made it much easier for wealthy Chica-
goans to travel to their summer homes on Geneva Lake
on the weekends. To be sure, fulltime employment of vil-
lage residents was largely conned to the months of May
through October. (If weather permitted, they were also
employed in November, March, and April).
The growth of the village of Geneva in the 1870s and
1880s led to its becoming a city in 1886. It was during
the 1870s and 1880s that many of the stores in Gene-
vas downtown business district along the 700 block of
Main Street were constructed. It was also in the 1870s
and 1880s that the Victorian homes in what is now the
Maple Park historic district were built, evidencing the
emergence of a prosperous middle class in Lake Geneva.
It was still a city dominated by residents of Protestant,
Anglo-Saxon origin, but a further transformation was
getting underway as hundreds of immigrants from the
newly-unied Germany (1871) were migrating to the
United States. (Many were eeing conscription in the
Franco-Prussian war).
Milwaukee would be the destination for many of
them as would Lyons and Bloomeld townships, where
they would replace the diminishing generation of farm-
ers from upstate New York and Vermont who had origi-
nally settled the area. The next chapter in Lake Genevas
history will address this formative development.

Fury doesnt necessarily have
just one plot or conict. It follows
a Sherman tank crew consisting of
ve members. Don Wardaddy Col-
lier (Brad Pitt) is the battle-hardened
leader of the crew. He keeps all of the
other crew members personalities and
egos in check. Boyd Bible Swan (Shia
LaBeouf) is an interesting character in
the sense that he is a Christian man that
constantly quotes the Bible despite the
fact that he nds joy in killing Nazis.
Trini Gordo Garcia (Michael Pena)
is the wise- cracking likeable every-
day guy in the crew. Grady Coon-Ass
Travis (Jon Bernthal) is a jerk for lack
of a better word. He does everything
he can to terrorize and bully Norman
Ellison (Logan Lerman), the newbie of
the crew who is thrust into battle with-
out training. The lm focuses mainly
on him, and his inability to cope with
the horrors of war.
Fury is one of the best war lms
Ive seen in quite some time. Direc-
tor David Ayer maintains a bleak tone
throughout the lm with the use of
brutal violence and plenty of gray
colors. The lm looks beautiful. While
World War II was won by the United
States, Ayer doesnt make these guys
out to be hugely patriotic. They arent
ghting for the motives of the United
States; theyre ghting
for themselves. They
believe that theyre
doing what is right.
This is an interest-
ing approach to a war
movie. Every charac-
ter has his own set of
morals and they all
work together because
they have a common
enemy. The lm also
focuses on how the war
has changed all of these
characters. This dynamic is perhaps
the most interesting aspect of the lm.
When Norman Ellison joins the
crew, hes terried and unsure of
whats to come. Almost immediately
he comes to the realization that war
is horrifying when Wardaddy orders
him to clean his section of the tank.
The reason Norman is put on the crew
is because he must take the place of a
man who died in combat. As Norman
is cleaning, he nds part of this mans
face in the tank. This disgusting image
brings me to my next claim: Fury is
the most brutally violent war movie of
all time. Decapitations and a part of a
mans face are only a few examples of
the violence in this lm. Many of these
haunting images have stuck with me
since Ive seen the movie.
Fury also has incredibly tense
and exhilarating action
sequences sprinkled
throughout the rst two
acts. The third act con-
tains one of the most
incredible action scenes
Ive seen this year, if not
the best. Getting into
detail regarding this
scene would warrant
a spoiler warning, so I
wont do that. What I
will say is that Ayer does
a great job immersing
you into the scene. You almost feel as
though youre a member of the crew.
The performances all around are
terric. Pitt is great here as Ward-
addy. His character seems like a typi-
cal commander, but theres much more
under the surface.
You can tell that the war has
affected him in unimaginable ways,
and Pitt clearly portrays that in his
performance. LaBeouf apparently put
himself through a lot in order to make
his character more realistic. He went
as far as cutting his own face everyday
in order to immerse himself more into
the character. His performance is truly
magnicent. Pena does great work as
always, and Bernthal gave character
to the stereotypical jerk. The standout
however is Lerman as the rookie who
hasnt yet been exposed to the wars
horrors. This is the character that the
general audience is able to connect
with most on a personal level due to
our lack of war experience. He bril-
liantly displays his acting ability in
multiple scenes in which his morals
are challenged.
My only major issue with this lm
is a character transformation that hap-
pens at one point in the movie that
seemingly comes out of nowhere. This
is another plot detail that could be
a spoiler, so I wont say what charac-
ter, but I will say that it comes out of
nowhere.
Overall, Fury is a bleak WWII lm
containing great performances, realis-
tic banter between the crew, incredible
action scenes and a few unclear char-
acter motivations throughout. The
nal shot has ingrained itself into my
mind. It perfectly encapsulates every-
thing that this movie is trying to say.
War is ugly.
It changes people. Sure, our coun-
try won, but at what cost?

COMMUNITY & COMMENTARY
Time is Now/My heart went out for this poor hungry woman
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1D
She collected a few of her belongings in a tote bag and we
went inside the hospital.
We picked out our trays of food, I encouraged her to ll
her tray even adding some nonperishable things for later,
and we sat in a less crowded corner of the cafeteria to talk.
I watched as the mother ate very fast, as only a truly
hungry person does. I asked when the last time she had
eaten was, and she confessed not since a peanut butter sand-
wich the previous day. I asked if she had any money on her at
all for food, gas, etc. She had $1.29 in her pocket. My heart
went out to this poor hungry woman.
The mother told me she had taken every penny she could
nd to try and pay her last months rent to prevent the evic-
tion. She still was $300 dollars short for that rent and the
landlord was demanding that he be paid immediately. The
mother told me how she worried each time she left her apart-
ment that when she returned she would nd her belongings
on the curb. I asked if she had spoken to her landlord about
her situation.
She said she had not told him the details. I told the
mother she needed to share with her landlord the reason
she was unable to pay her rent this month. The mother said,
When I called him to tell him I was late he said he did not
want to hear any excuses, he just wanted his rent money.
He would not even let me give him a reason for being late.
When I offered to speak to her landlord for her she looked
confused and asked, Would you? I called the landlord and
once he heard it was The Time Is Now to Help calling he was
willing to listen to what the mother had to say.
After I explained the mothers situation the landlord
went from a place of defensiveness to asking what he could
do to help. He apologized for his rudeness in their previous
conversation stating he had gotten so used to overdue rent-
ers he never thought there might be a valid excuse.
After we spoke with the landlord, and I told him we
would be paying her overdue rent and two months into the
future allowing the mother time to get the baby well and
home, he offered to reduce her rent by $100 per month.
Both the mother and I thanked him for his help. I went
through her remaining overdue bills and found she needed
help with her utilities. These were brought up to date and
paid into the future. I arranged for her car to get in for the
much needed repairs. The mother looked panicked as she
asked, How will I get back and forth to the hospital while
my car is in for repairs?
I told her we would provide a motel room for the next
few days within walking distance of the hospital. This would
give her a safe place to sleep and would eliminate her long
daily commute while her car was in for much needed service.
We also provided her with some pocket money to use for her
food and personal needs for the next few days. The next day
the mother dropped her car off for service and a volunteer
graciously drove her to the hospital where she would stay
with her baby and walk to the motel at night to sleep.
Three days later the mother called to thank all of us for
her car repairs. She said she had driven to the hospital and
it had run like new. The mother said she could now focus on
the health of her little girl and getting her well enough to
come home.
Thankfully the mother was able to bring her daughter
home several weeks later. The mother was so grateful she
had her apartment to bring her baby home to. She also had
formed a closer friendship with the woman that had written
a letter in her behalf. The mother told me to share her appre-
ciation with all of you. God bless you for making this and all
our assistance possible.
