At a meeting that morning on the Emerald Ash Borer, it

slowed and was suggested that a three-trustee panel be formed to address the

Roger Zorn – member of Parks Committee. He is
concerned regarding the Veterans Park and the reason why it is being placed back

it over. At this point there is also concern about the permitting and the
dragging of feet on this. He is looking for guidance for his committee. Trustee
Beitz asked for unanimous consent to discuss this at length with the Park
committee members present. This was granted..
Jim Bokelman – He is the representative for Veterans

- Discussion and possible action to send to the board for the approval of
construction and development on the Veterans Park. This is a recommendation
from the Parks Department. Commissioner Zorn spoke for the Parks Department
and he feels that the permits and such are taking too long and that this
issue should be referred to Planning Committee. Also there is a lack of
communication regarding this. The Engineer provided paperwork to the board
on this regarding zoning, engineer work and legal work. This park won’t have
to be re-zoned within the village once the park is completed. This memo
should give direction to the village board regarding where this issue should
lie. There are certain procedures and guidelines that need to be followed
before all this can take place. There needs to be a "ring leader" so to
speak to make sure all the procedures and such get done. Attorney Kiefer
gave a breakdown of requirements for this park and what is all needed to get
this done right. Once the CSM has been established to possibly have the
Engineer come before the board and we can proceed from there. This lot needs
to conform to B-1 zoning requirements. Engineer Bednarski will meet with
Noreen McGaw regarding the easement or lack of easement at the time when the
CSM is taking place. He will report back at the next board meeting with his
findings. Engineer Bednarski will keep the board informed and he will let us
know about agenda items for this.

Committee Reports
Emergency Government
Is meeting with contractors regarding moving the
siren for emergency use.
Planning
Recently met and went over the plans for Newburg Fire Department for
their expansion project. This should look really nice. Tentative sign
approval on sign in Village. Preliminary discussion on budget. Ozaukee
County Smart Growth was in attendance and hopefully by December this should
be completed. Attended the Emerald Ash Borer meeting.
Law Enforcement
Finalized the 2009 budget. Approved an ordinance
to send to the board.
Department of Public Works
Went over the hours for the month of July.
Received a map of the downtown project. Approved the budget for 2009.
Discussed ditch drainage problems on Old Pit Road and would like to set
aside monies for this and other areas in the village. Discussed the Steeple
View retention pond. This isn’t a village problem…mother nature gave us
plenty of water this past spring/summer. Working on the driveway special
assessments. Accepted a bid for paving a small piece of pavement. Discussed
Congress Drive to do a possible overlay. The boring reports came back and
the cost to redo Congress Drive would be around $200K. Met with the DNR
regarding the dam. There is seepage on the east wall of the dam and this
will need to be addressed. This could be done with grouting. There is also
some minor cracking on the top of the dam. We will be getting an order from
the DNR for tree-removal on the earth side of the dam and these trees will
need to be removed. The DNR would like to see the village pull back some of
the concrete that’s along the river. Would maybe like to put rip rap down.
The DNR will also be sending us an Emergency Action Plan that needs to be
filled out. One part of the form is that we need to hire an engineer to fill
out one part of this form. Need to comply with NR 333 – Spillway Capacity
Assessment and Structural Stability Assessment. This needs to be completed
by an outside engineer firm. Total cost estimate would be around $50,000.
They will also make recommendations for our village.
Clerk
Attended an Emerald Ash Borer meeting. At the
present time there aren’t any funds available to take care of this. There
isn’t immediate danger to the residents so nothing will be done at this
time. Would like the board to start thinking about a storm water utility fee
for other projects to be funded within the village.

2009. Presented the sign for the new Fritz Falkner park. These will be

- Discussion and possible action on Adopting Ordinance #05-2008 An
Ordinance to Create Sections 7.07(2)(h) and 7.07(3)(h) of the Municipal Code
(Parking Prohibited). This was a recommendation from Dept. of Public Works.
Trustee Beitz gave a breakdown of all the recommendations on the Ordinance.
Discussion was held regarding this. Superintendent Woda said that the only
issue that he had with the parking was plowing of the snow. He didn’t see
and issue between Main Street and the first property to the east – the real
problem is from the second driveway to No No’s. Noreen McGaw expressed her
concerns via President Sackett regarding this parking issue. The road is
more off-center to the north. Possible temporary signs instead of no parking
on section 3 were discussed. A motion was made by Trustee Chesak and
seconded by Trustee Beimborn to approve the Ordinance with the removal of
Section 3 of the Ordinance. Motion passed.
- Discussion and possible action on Phase I or Phase II Environmental
Assessment of Mary Monday Property. Possible park land. A Phase I of the
property was performed and there might be a possibility of above or
underground storage tanks. There appeared to have been an above ground gas
tank on the western edge nearest Mary Monday’s garage. Should we proceed
with Phase II to investigate the soils for possible contamination? The Phase
II would cost around $5,000. Attorney Kiefer explained the contamination
issue brought to the board for further clarification. The cost of a Phase I
is around $2,600. A motion was made by Trustee Heili and seconded by Trustee
Damrow to accept the property "as is" and not do any Phase I or Phase II. A
poll vote was taken with the following: "YES" Chesak, Damrow, Heili, Wollner,
Beitz. "NO" Beimborn and President Sackett. Motion passed.

answered questions that were presented. This will be placed on the agenda
for the next meeting – to discuss this further.
- Discussion and possible action on maintaining or repairing the storm
sewer line from Main Street to the stub north of Lorence Manufacturing
building. This is the catch basin behind Parkside Tavern. Originally it was
a storm sewer that ran under the buildings. The catch basin is not draining
at all and the water is flooding the area. The Newburg Fire Department
helped alleviate the water and also the City of West Bend was called in to
help clean out the catch basin. Engineer Bednarski and Superintendent Woda
met with the contractor and there could be other alternatives to this. There
are many unknowns at this time and they need to be further researched. Would
possibly need an easement for the work. Working out costs for doing a closed
circuit tv inspection for the line, too. Attorney Kiefer explained to the
board the necessary steps to possibly correct this. A motion was made by
Trustee Heili and seconded by Trustee Chesak to close circuit tv inspection
this. Motion passed.

Planning Commission
Trustee Heili and Engineer Johnson attended a Planning
Seminar recently. He brought back information for the board and/or planning
commission members. The minutes need to be more thorough with more information
placed into these minutes in case questions arise and this can be figured out.
Dept. of Public Works
Put the year to date expenses into a spread sheet and
the expenses are almost over budget if you take the numbers out to year’s end –
by a best guess. Discussed the increase in garbage and recycling collection and
the fuel increase that has taken place. There is currently a surcharge placed on
the invoice that is received from Veolia already. Discussed hours worked and the
possibility of being over budget on many items.
We should have the ability to recoup state and federal
fuel tax on some of our purchases. Questioned this and wanted to see if this was
possible.
There was an attempt in the legislature to come up
with state aid due to the snow. This didn’t pass but the Governor did write to
FEMA and they have agreed to provide some funding to some southeastern counties.
There will be several representatives and someone will get information and then
get this back to us. The Village of Newburg has taken the steps to fill out the
form and send this into the state for possible state aid.

Discussed a possible reason why the motion was
approved under New Business.
