though not a formal public announcement, the issue has still stirred up strong opposition

Rumors have been circulating in Linn Township, Wisconsin
concerning a possible expansion of the Linn Pier boat launch facilities, causing many residents and visitors to be somewhat upset. Although nothing was stated to the public, the president of a property owners association of a nearby subdivision read a letter in the May 12^th Board meeting that was clearly in opposition to the idea. 

It was confirmed that the issue was apparently brought up during a closed session meeting in April, but without a public notice it really isn’t in the range of current action. The public seems to oppose the idea due to fears that expansion will cause traffic and safety issues near the pier’s parking area, and how it might impact the residential area around it.

With inevitable updates needed, Williams Bay WI are looking ahead at new technology and a new water plant

Williams Bay Wisconsin needs to prepare for the future, by setting their sights on a new water plant for the village.  Village Engineer, Doug Snyder, began thoughts in this direction when he brought up the topic during an April Committee of the Whole meeting.  His first move, as approved by the Village board, is to conduct a water study for Williams Bay; the study will determine how well the current water plant is doing and what will be needed in the future.  

Although there have not been any problems with the existing water plant, Snyder wants Williams Bay to be prepared to build a new plant with new technology in the future before the old one is damaged or stops working properly; the village will also need to work the new plant into a master plan and address some legal issues before it would be built and thus, planning in advance will help ease the process.

Lakefront Property owners were not happy with what the proposed zoning ordinance for their property

Concerns began for lakefront property owners last year when the idea of placing a second layer of homes by the lakefront was proposed. Since then the Fontana Wisconsin Village Board has appointed their staff to come up with a separate zoning ordinance for lakefront properties. However, the suggested changes, when brought to the public eye last week, were not favorable to lakefront property owners. The restrictions on caretaker homes and a new definition of how lot areas were to be measured did not seem to be in favor with those at the public hearing.

Due to the property owners’ reactions at Fontana’s Village Board meeting, the village’s staff will be looking over the changes again to see if they can come up with something more agreeable to those with primary interests.

With Class B liquor licenses, two of Lake Geneva's local restaurants will be increasing their business

The two available liquor licenses for Lake Geneva Wisconsin
were recently awarded to local businesses this past week. The City Council met to make the decision and reviewed the requests carefully, finally deciding to offer the Class B liquor licenses to the Golden Oaks Mansion and the Medusa Grill and Bistro restaurant. 

These two licenses became available again due to the Hillmoor’s license being revoked and Applebee’s license unable to be used due to their current inability to come to agreement on property related issues. These available liquor licenses were highly coveted by Lake Geneva’s local food service businesses and five applied for them, with only two coming out victorious.

One of the license winners, the Golden Oaks Mansion is a bed and breakfast and the owner Waspi Bell has been yearning for the opportunity to offer a restaurant with refined tastes; the other restaurant winner, Greg Anagnos, hopes to serve cocktails in a lounge area of his restaurant, which will allow the grill to be open longer and increase business for the winter.

The number of Class B liquor licenses offered for each municipality is based on population, but Lake Geneva Wisconsin is looking to add more when the population estimates are altered.
