Motion by Tyler Dahlke, second by Lisa Baur to approve the printed minutes of the July 10, 2023 meeting. Motion carried.

Motion by Dahlke, second by Baur to approve payment of bills with check numbers 18422 through 18432, wages, and payments made electronically. Motion carried. Bills for electronic payments will be forwarded to Treasurer Maguire for payment.
Clerk’s Report:
· Three building permits were issued: Kerry Olson – window replacement in the house and addition of a small storage shed, JRK Properties – house remodeling, and Cory Christian – new shed.

Motion by Dahlke, second by Baur to designate the use of the loan funds to pay for the Eau Pleine Park Road blacktopping project. Motion carried.
Chairman Maguire informed the Board that after a lengthy delay, a load of dust control was available. In communication with Board members, it was decided not to spread any dust control this year.
The deadline for applying for a 50/50 cost share for large culverts is October 1. A decision will be made at the September meeting to apply if there are failing culverts that need to be replaced.
Chairman/Supervisor Reports:
· Supervisor Dahlke reported that he has been in contact with a company that would do ground testing at the Town of Emmet property (formerly the Town landfill). The company is studying the possibility of obtaining grants for this cost.
· Aaron Nieman requested that the Town consider cleaning the ditch adjacent to his property. There have been problems with water draining away from his sump pump. The Town will try to schedule this for this fall, depending upon if a contractor will be available.
· Doug & Sue Dietert inquired about the progress of changing the public access road adjacent to their property. Supervisor Dahlke informed them that he has been in contact with the landowner. The hold up at the present time is the DNR determination of whether the property in question is buildable or not.
Public Comments:
· A Town resident had questions regarding the impact of the loan on the tax levy. It was explained that the yearly payment for the loan will be on the tax levy. At this time, it is difficult to determine what the tax rate will be because the County, school districts, and NTC levies are not set.

As this 40-acre site was where the former Town dump was located, ground testing will be required before any sale of this property. The REI company was mentioned for possibly doing the testing. Board members will make contacts to get the best price for this testing. There will be an update the next Board meeting.
· An ordinance for wind turbines was discussed. Chairman Maguire mentioned that any new ordinances would need to override the exemption in our present ordinance for all power-related enplacements.

Board members will contact attorneys, no formal Board action taken at this meeting.
· Gravel and culvert replacements will be formalized at the next meeting.
· A lengthy discussion concerning issuance of liquor licenses. The Town Board cannot deny a liquor license even if the holder does not open for business. The Town Board will renew liquor licenses at the June meeting.

Please be advised of the following requirements to appear before the Board of Review and procedural requirements if appearing before the Board.
No person will be allowed to appear before the Board of Review, to testify to the Board by telephone, or to contest the amount of any assessment of real or personal property if the person has refused a reasonable written request by certified mail of the assessor to view the property.
After the first meeting of the Board of Review and before the Board’s final adjournment, no person who is scheduled to appear before the Board of Review may contact or provide information to a member of the Board about the person’s objection, except at a session of the Board.
The Board of Review may not hear an objection to the amount or valuation of property unless, at least 48 hours before the Board’s first scheduled meeting, the objector provides to the Board’s Clerk written or oral notice of an intent to file an objection, except that upon a showing of good cause and the submission of a written objection, the Board shall waive the requirement during the first two hours of the Board’s first scheduled meeting, and the Board may waive the requirement up to the end of the fifth day of the session or up to the end of the final day of the session if the session is less than five days with proof of extraordinary circumstances for failure to meet the 48-hour notice requirement and failure to appear before the Board of Review during the first two hours of the first scheduled meeting.
Objections to the amount or valuation of property shall first be made in writing and filed with the Clerk of the Board of Review within the first two hours of the Board’s first scheduled meeting, except that, upon evidence of extraordinary circumstances, the Board may waive that requirement up to the end of the fifith day of the session or up to the end of the final day of the session if the session is less than five days. The Board may require objections to the amount or valuation of property to be submitted on forms approved by the Department of Revenue, and the Board shall require that any forms include stated valuations of the property in question. Persons who own land and improvements to that land may object to the aggregate valuation of that land and improvements to that land, but no person who owns land and improvements to that land may object only to the valuation of that land or only to the valuation of improvements to that land. No person may be allowed in any action or proceedings to question the amount or valuation of property unless the written objection has been filed and that person in good faith presented evidence to the Board in support of the objections and made full disclosure before the Board, under oath, of all of that person’s property liable to assessment in the district and the value of that property. The requirement that objections be in writing may be waived by express action of the Board.
When appearing before the Board of Review, the objecting person shall specify in writing the peron’s estimate of the value of the land and of the improvements that are the subject of the person’s objection and specify the information that the person used to arrive at that estimate.
No person may appear before the Board of Review, testify to the Board by telephone, or object to a valuation if that valuation was made by the assessor or the objector using the income method of valuation, unless the person supplies the assessor with all the information about income and expenses, as specified in the assessor’s manual under s.73.03(2a), Wis. Stats., that the assessor requests. The Town of Emmet has an ordinance for the confidentiality of information about income and expenses that is provided to the assessor under this paragraph that provides exceptions for persons using information in the discharge of duties imposed by law or the duties of their officer or by order of a court. The information that is provided under this paragraph, unless a court determined that it is inaccurate, is not subject to the right of inspection and copying under s.19.35(1), Wis. Stats.
The Board shall hear upon oath, by telephone, all ill or disabled persons who present to the Board a letter from a physician, surgeon, or osteopath that confirms their illness or disability. No other persons may testify by telephone unless the Board, in its discretion, has determined to grant a property owner’s or their representative’s request to testify under oath by telephone or written statement.
No person may appear before the Board of Review, testify to the Board by telephone, or contest the amount of an assessment unless, at least 48 hours before the first meeting of the Board, or at least 48 hours before the objection is heard if the objection is allowed under s.70.47(3)(a), Wis. Stats., that person provides to the Clerk of the Board of Review notice as to whether the person will ask for the removal of a member of the Board of Review and, if so, which member, and provides a reasonable estimate of the length of time the hearing will take.

Langenhahn, Town of Emmet Ward 2, outlined the major issues that the County
Board has been considering. Mr.
Langenhahn answered several questions from the Board and audience.
Jim & Kevin Maguire,
were present at the meeting in regard to procedures that took place in 1993 regarding
possible road widening and culvert replacements. The Clerk read extensive minutes from
those proceedings, and the result was that there was no written agreement with
the Maguire Family regarding sale of right-of-way. Consequently, the road remained a
three-rod road and new culverts were installed at that time. It was agreed that because this was many
years ago and statutes of limitations have long expired on any possible
transactions, the matter is closed.
The cattle pass located on Big Eau Pleine Park
Road will be replaced with a smaller culvert and the old culvert is the
property of the Maguire family.
Motion by Clint, second by Dahlke to
approve operator’s license for Savannah Furcho.
Motion carried.
Motion by Dahlke, second by Clint to
authorize the ATC payment for highway projects.
Motion carried.
Chairman and Supervisors’ Report:
·
Three
culverts on the Eau Pleine Park Road were replaced
today (July 12). A larger culvert
will be installed when the contractor is available.
·
The
large culvert located on Moon Road will also be replaced this year (2022). An order will be placed with the
Town’s vendor.
Adam Grahn,
Fire Chief of the Mosinee Fire District, and Jared were on hand to explain the
proposal on EMS license downgrade.
This is necessary because of the difficulty of staffing advanced level
EMS providers. This is not a
permanent downgrade. As soon as
staffing levels permit, the Mosinee Fire District will be upgrading back to an
AEMT level surface.

Supervisor
Dahlke researched the cost for a new salt/gravel shed. He presented those numbers to the Board. This was information only. A decision on this structure will be
made on a future date.
·
The
Board discussed the possibility of digitalizing Town records. The Historical Society of Wisconsin has
guidelines for this procedure. The
Clerk mentioned that some records have to be retained forever. No action taken.
Mike Hafner
and Jean Bohman, residents of Pelican Bay Drive,
outlined to the Board their concerns and frustrations with
the continued illegal activity of nails being thrown on Pelican Bay
Drive. Surveillance cameras will be
strategically placed, and residents are urged to continue to contact Marathon
County Sheriff’s Department when nails are found. A Marathon County Sheriff’s
Officer has been assigned to this case.
After much discussion, the consensus is that there is no easy and legal
solution to this problem.

go into closed session, pursuant to Wis. Statute 19.85(1). Roll call vote: all ayes

portion of the road, however, recently nails have been found all the way to
Highway S.
County Board Supervisor, Sandi Cihlar, highlighted the Infrastructure Committee
discussions on the County Highway permitting process concerning fiber optic
cable installation. She urged all
residents to take the internet speed test for internet availability.

TOWN OF
EMMET
May 11, 2020
Regular Town Board Meeting
The regular monthly Town Board Meeting
of the Town of Emmet was called to order on the above date by Chairman Meldon
Maguire at 7:14 pm. The meeting was
held in the Halder Community Hall, 135125 Halder Drive, Mosinee. The meeting was held on Monday due to
the May 12, 2020 election.
Present were all Town Board
members. Also present were Ben
Nechuta and Will Litzer.
Motion by Mike
Baumann, second by Tyler Dahlke to approve the printed minutes of the April 14,
2020 Town Board meeting. Motion carried.
Treasurer Mike Maguire presented the
financial report for May 2020. Motion by Dahlke, second by Baumann to approve Treasurer’s
report. Motion carried.

approve payment of bills with check numbers 17523 through 17542, wages, and

The Clerk reported the necessary
safety measures for the May 12, 2020 election will be in place. The Bureau of Land Commissioners has
approved the application for the loan of $150,000. Treasurer Maguire will deposit the check
upon receipt.
Chairman Maguire reported on a
communication from Dr. Michael McManus regarding his plan for clearing brush
and tall grass on his newly purchased property in the Bayside Subdivision. This area also includes a public access
road that was made part of the surveying plot when this subdivision was
created. Marathon County Shoreland Regulations will have to be followed for any work
near the shoreline. McManus had
concerns about the neighboring property where a large shed is located. The Board discussed a project by the
Halder Community Club regarding blacktopping the area adjacent to the
concession stand. At this meeting
date, the new Town truck is on order and delivery expected within 30 days.
Chairman Maguire reported that METCO
will be digging several test holes in the vicinity of the ball park within the
next week. The Town will furnish a
temporary driveway for access for their drilling equipment. Ben reported there are some culverts
that need attention. Because of
budgetary concerns, most major culvert projects will be postponed until next
year unless there is immediate necessity to replace. Some ATV signs will be placed on the
same posts as the Town of Emmet zoning signs. Before the remainder of the ATV signs
can be placed, diggers hotline will need to be
contacted.

second by Dahlke to approve beer permits and operators’ licenses for the
Halder Community Club for the summer events at the ballpark.
Motion carried.

After Board discussion, no date was
set for the Annual Meeting. A final
decision will need to be made at the June meeting depending upon guidelines set
forth by the Towns Association.
The next regular Town Board meeting is
scheduled for Tuesday, June 9, 2020 @ 7:00 P.M. at the Halder Community Hall.

Please be advised of the following requirements to appear before the Board of Review and procedural requirements if appearing before the Board.
No person will be allowed to appear before the Board of Review, to testify to the Board by telephone, or to contest the amount of any assessment of real or personal property if the person has refused a reasonable written request by certified mail of the assessor to view the property.
After the first meeting of the Board of Review and before the Board’s final adjournment, no person who is scheduled to appear before the Board of Review may contact or provide information to a member of the Board about the person’s objection, except at a session of the Board.
The Board of Review may not hear an objection to the amount or valuation of property unless, at least 48 hours before the Board’s first scheduled meeting, the objector provides to the Board’s Clerk written or oral notice of an intent to file an objection, except that upon a showing of good cause and the submission of a written objection, the Board shall waive the requirement during the first two hours of the Board’s first scheduled meeting, and the Board may waive the requirement up to the end of the fifth day of the session or up to the end of the final day of the session if the session is less than five days with proof of extraordinary circumstances for failure to meet the 48-hour notice requirement and failure to appear before the Board of Review during the first two hours of the first scheduled meeting.
Objections to the amount or valuation of property shall first be made in writing and filed with the Clerk of the Board of Review within the first two hours of the Board’s first scheduled meeting, except that, upon evidence of extraordinary circumstances, the Board may waive that requirement up to the end of the fifith day of the session or up to the end of the final day of the session if the session is less than five days. The Board may require objections to the amount or valuation of property to be submitted on forms approved by the Department of Revenue, and the Board shall require that any forms include stated valuations of the property in question. Persons who own land and improvements to that land may object to the aggregate valuation of that land and improvements to that land, but no person who owns land and improvements to that land may object only to the valuation of that land or only to the valuation of improvements to that land. No person may be allowed in any action or proceedings to question the amount or valuation of property unless the written objection has been filed and that person in good faith presented evidence to the Board in support of the objections and made full disclosure before the Board, under oath, of all of that person’s property liable to assessment in the district and the value of that property. The requirement that objections be in writing may be waived by express action of the Board.
When appearing before the Board of Review, the objecting person shall specify in writing the peron’s estimate of the value of the land and of the improvements that are the subject of the person’s objection and specify the information that the person used to arrive at that estimate.
No person may appear before the Board of Review, testify to the Board by telephone, or object to a valuation if that valuation was made by the assessor or the objector using the income method of valuation, unless the person supplies the assessor with all the information about income and expenses, as specified in the assessor’s manual under s.73.03(2a), Wis. Stats., that the assessor requests. The Town of Emmet has an ordinance for the confidentiality of information about income and expenses that is provided to the assessor under this paragraph that provides exceptions for persons using information in the discharge of duties imposed by law or the duties of their officer or by order of a court. The information that is provided under this paragraph, unless a court determined that it is inaccurate, is not subject to the right of inspection and copying under s.19.35(1), Wis. Stats.
The Board shall hear upon oath, by telephone, all ill or disabled persons who present to the Board a letter from a physician, surgeon, or osteopath that confirms their illness or disability. No other persons may testify by telephone unless the Board, in its discretion, has determined to grant a property owner’s or their representative’s request to testify under oath by telephone or written statement.
No person may appear before the Board of Review, testify to the Board by telephone, or contest the amount of an assessment unless, at least 48 hours before the first meeting of the Board, or at least 48 hours before the objection is heard if the objection is allowed under s.70.47(3)(a), Wis. Stats., that person provides to the Clerk of the Board of Review notice as to whether the person will ask for the removal of a member of the Board of Review and, if so, which member, and provides a reasonable estimate of the length of time the hearing will take.
