Building Located in the Industrial Park. Property is located @ W1205 Industrial Drive, Ixonia; is 1.030 acres and is
Zoned I-Industrial. Neal of Morton Buildings spoke on behalf of Jim and Lori Gleason, owners of JNL. The
Gleasons currently have a 1350 sq. foot office/warehouse, they are proposing the addition of just under 5400 sq. ft.
2300 sq. ft. will be office and 3000 sq. ft. for warehouse. The existing structure will be reclad to match the new
structure. The current driveway and parking lot will be extended 83 feet to the west. Operations and use of the
building will remain the same. The minimum set back requirement has been met. Dorothy Genz of Sanitary District
#1 questioned the addition of restrooms. There will be an addition of a men’s and women’s restroom. The planning
commission voted unanimously to approve this request contingent on the setback of 25 ft. instead of the current 15

Properties. Seconded by Brian Derge. Motion carried.

(Definitions,) at the End of the Definition of “Lot Lines and Area: The peripheral boundaries of a parcel of land and
the total area lying within such boundaries,” the Words “excluding right-of-way.” This was passed unanimously by

C) Review and Possible Action for Neumann Developments Inc & Richard/Karen Adams on Parcel #012-0816-2131-
002, #012-0816-2131-019, #012-0816-2131-018 To:
1) Create a 5.4 Acre Out lot to be known as Out lot 22 and Amend Zoning to A-T Agricultural Transition
2) Create 2 Residential Lots Off of Woody Lane
Neumann would like to reposition lot #155 and #156. This way there would not be a need for a cult de sac on Park
Ridge Way. It was requested that access for the 2 lots only be off of Woody Lane. Attorney Stam Riffle
recommended that access to lots 1 and 2 be gained on Woody Lane with placement to be determined by the
Highway Superintendant, requirement that Neumann pave the 16’ existing access easement to the pump house
and dedicate right of way for the extension, if necessary, of Park Ridge Way across Lot 1 of CSM 5043. It was
confirmed by property owners Miller-Ewer, that they are in agreement with Neumann regarding the proposed plans
for Park Ridge Way. They had a concern with possibly being told in the future that their driveway would need to be
relocated from County Hwy P to Park Ridge Way in the event Park Ridge Way is extended. Attorney Riffle
informed them that Neumann and/or the Town would not do that, Jefferson County could make that request if so
desired. Peter Mark made a motion to allow the proposed changes to lot 155 and 156 of being turned east/west
with driveway access on Woody Lane, to dedicate Park Ridge Way to the west end of lot 1 of CSM 5043 and to

pave the access road up to the Home Owners Association park. Seconded by Brian Derge. Motion carried.
ITEM #9: HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT
A) Review and Possible Action on Accepting Seal Coating Bids – Dave Waller reported that Scott Construction came
in with the low bid for seal coating. He recommended they be given the contract for Vista Drive. Peter Mark made
a motion to accept the bid from Scott Construction for $8700.00 to pave Vista Drive. Seconded by Joe Mallow.
Motion carried.
B) Review and Possible Action on Change Order on Ski Slide Road – Bids for Ski Slide Road came in less than
expected therefore, Dave Waller and Chris Stamborski are thinking instead of doing a wedge and overlay they could
pulverize and do a much better job. This project would go over budget by $15,248.60 but in the long run the road
would last 25 years instead of 15 years. If the wedge and overlay are done there will be reflective cracking in a few
years. If the road is pulverized there will be a much better base and the road will last longer. Perry Goetsch, Brian
Derge and Joe Mallow all spoke in favor of coming up with the extra money to do a better job that will last longer.
Brian Derge made a motion to pulverize Ski Slide Road and take the money from the Undesignated Fund. Seconded
by Joe Mallow. Motion carried.
ITEM 10: TRANSFER SITE
A) Review and Possible Action on the Purchase of a S205 Bobcat Skid-Steer Loader – Vic Karaliunas stated that the
current S130 Bobcat is too small for snow removal and moving the heavy e-waste coming into the Transfer Site.
The S205 Bobcat quote came in at $17,223.86. The only attachment being purchased is an 88” Light Material
Bucket. A quote was also received for a Gehl Skid-Steer that was $448.86 less than the Bobcat. After comparison
the committee preferred the Bobcat especially for loading of heavy e-waste such as refrigerators and freezers. The
current loader can be traded in for $10,500. The current attachments can be used on the new S205. Brian Derge
made a motion to allow the Tranfer Site to purchase a new S205 Bobcat with 88” Light Material Bucket with money
for the purchase coming from the Transfer Site Equipment Fund. Seconded by Carl Jaeger. Motion carried.
ITEM #11: REVIEW AND POSSIBLE ACTION ON JEFFERSON COUNTY DEBRIS MANAGEMENT COURSE AND
POLICY – Jefferson County is holding a Debris Management Course June 25-27 from 8:00-4:00 pm to help towns set up a
plan in the event of a major disaster. Carl Jaeger felt it would be a good idea for the department heads to look at attending
this course since all departments would be involved if a disaster occurred. Perry Goetsch sited that three full days makes it
hard for people to attend. Peter Mark asked if it was a requirement for someone from the Town to be certified. It is not a
requirement. The county developed this course in response to requests made from townships on what should be done in the
event of a disaster. Perry Goetsch made a motion to allow Carl Jaeger to attend the Debris Management Course. Seconded
by Brian Derge. Motion carried.
ITEM #12: REVIEW AND POSSIBLE ACTION ON MOWING ORDINANCE FOR VACANT LOTS – Carl Jaeger is
requesting that something be set up to insure vacant lots are cut at least once a month or on a timely basis to keep the weed
growth under control. After discussion on what can and cannot be done it was decided to continue with current policy of
notifying the land owner they are in violation and have 5 days to comply or the Town will hire someone to cut the area. The
land owner will be billed for the cost of cutting.
ITEM #13: REVIEW AND POSSIBLE ACTION FOR LAKE COUNTRY MARINE PAVING & NON-COMPLIANCE –
Lake Country Marine was sent a letter by the Town Attorney to comply with the Town’s paving ordinance by May 15. At
this point nothing has been done. Brian Derge also noted that they do not have restrooms, no screening, zero landscaping and
no paving. Brian Derge made a motion to enforce the covenants against Lake Country Marine. Seconded by Joe Mallow.
