Board rejects move to county executive form of governance

BY THOMAS J.MCKILLENMANAGING EDITOR

The Washington County Board rejected amotion at its June 12 meeting to shift to acounty executive form of government.

Day-to-day operations of county gov-ernment are currently managed by a coun-ty administrator appointed by theWashington County Board. There have beendiscussions in the past about changing to acounty executive form of governance, inwhich the executive is directly elected byvoters. The county executive form of gover-nance in is place in Milwaukee andWaukesha counties in southeasternWisconsin.

The board rejected the move by a 13-13tie vote. Among Germantown and Richfieldsupervisors, Jeffrey Schlieff, Carroll Merry,Rock Brandner, County Board Chairman DonKriefall and Mark McCune supported theshift to a county executive while PeterSorce and Brian Gallitz voted against themotion.

At the start of board discussion, Kriefallsaid that under the current governingstructure county residents do not choosetheir leader, with the board doing thatinstead.

"The method used to choose the leader

of our county's government is unique toevery other governmental body in ourcounty. Here the people do not elect ourleader," Kriefall said. He added that the vil-lage presidents and mayors of other munic-ipalities in the county are directly electedby the voters.

"Washington County should not be anydifferent," Kriefall said.

Supervisor Christopher Bossert alsomentioned that executive leaders at themunicipal, state, and national levels areelected. Bossert said the current countygovernance structure results in "an under-powered executive branch and an overpow-ered executive branch."

"Today may not be the perfect day butit's a good day to make this change, and wedon't need to wait for the perfect day,"Bossert said. "Change that moves us forwardshould always be embraced and change to acounty executive moves us forward."

Supervisor Chris Jenkins said he wasconcerned that the process was "rushed"as it first started being discussed in April.He also expressed concern that an electedcounty executive would have to appeal tolarger populations in Hartford and WestBend at the expense of small communities

As addiction has gone from commu-nity problem to epidemic, a dedicatedgroup of individuals refuses to sit idleand do nothing.

Hundreds of such people will comeout to the Eisenbahn Trail in West Bendon Saturday, July 27 to participate inElevate’s 10th annual Under theInfluence of Adrenaline Race Series.

With the mission of “building strongcommunities by addressing the rootcauses of high-risk behaviors throughprevention, intervention and residentialprograms focusing on drug and alcoholissues, mental health and delinquency,”the Jackson-located agency has held thisfund-raising race for the past nine yearsto fight a tragic trend ravaging familieseverywhere.

“We hold this event to support ourmission,” said Julie Wolf, Elevate’s asso-ciate director, in a phone interview withthe Express News. “This is one of ourmajor fundraisers of the year and itdraws a lot of people.”

Featuring a full marathon, half-marathon, 10K and 5K, the race day willkick off with a start time of either 6 or7 a.m. for the full or half marathon,depending on personal preference. The10K and 5K races will begin at 7:15 a.m.

Absent for a year, the marathonoption has returned thanks to populardemand, said Wolf.

“We added back the full marathonand it is a USATF Boston qualifier,” shesaid. “The marathon will go along thetrail from West Bend to Campbellsportand back.”

As a special aspect of the event,there will be a “Memory Mile” on whichsigns participants made in honor ofloved ones lost to addiction or in recov-ery. Peer specialists, part of a new pro-gram offered by Elevate, will be facilitat-ing in this portion of the race.

“There are a lot of great stories outthere and people run for many reasons,”said Wolf. “They are out there sharingthe message that there is hope for recov-ery.”

Also new this year, Elevate is part-nering with the Volunteer Center ofWashington County which will take theirDo Good bus out of the route and deliv-er refreshments to volunteers along theway and cheer on the runners.

When participants finish theirrespective race, they can enjoy a varietyof food from local restaurants and musicat the end, and if interested, even headover to Chalk Fest at the Museum of

Wisconsin Art in downtown West Bend.“They can make a day of it,” said

Wolf. “It’s a great time.”Prices are currently $30 for the 5K, $40

for the 10K, $50 for the half marathon and$60 for the marathon and will increase inJuly; however, participants can run forfree if they raise $100. Each person willreceive a T-shirt and every finisher gets amedal. Those who do not want to run butwould like to contribute can donatethrough the race website.

Adrenaline Race Series celebrates10 years of running with purpose

To celebrate the 25 year anniversary of HometownPublications, we're taking a look back at the early daysof news coverage in the area, as reported in the pages ofwhat is now the Express News.

The key news events of June 13, 1994, as report-ed in Hometown Publications

• What was later determined to be a "micro-burst"caused an estimated $1,500 in damage to private resi-dences in Germantown and $1,000 in damages to pub-lic property in Germantown on June 5,1994. The dam-age occurred in an area just north of County Line Roadnear Colonial and Butternut drives.

• Three of 11 Germantown High School studentsattending the Future Business Leaders of America(FBLA) conference in Green Bay on April 14-15, 1994

placed in the top 10 of their events. Jody Vanderheidenplacled first in machine transcription, Jessica Harryplaced sixth in business calculations and DebbieNeuenfeld placed 10th in business procedures.

• Out of the 4,400 residents in Richfield, only 756returned a survey that asked them if they wanted toform a school district in the town of Richfield.

• Paul Wagner, pitching for the Pittsburgh Pirates,came away with a no decision against the ColoradoRockies on June 5 in a game played Denver's Mile HighStadium. Wagner is a Germantown native who graduat-ed from Germantown High School.

The key news events of June 20, 1994, as report-ed in Hometown Publications

• The Germantown Plan Commission voted on June

13, 1994 to adopt the transportation element of the vil-lage's 2020 land use plan.

• The village of Germantown valuation process iscoming to a close, with only about 25 to 30 more prop-erties left to be assessed

• St. Boniface School announced that 13 studentsgraduated from the eighth grade on June 2.

• The Germantown School Board announced theappointment of Paul F. Bingen as the new principal atAmy Belle Elementary School for the 1994-95 schoolyear.

• Germantown's Paul Wagner won one and lost onein a pair of pitching starts last week for the PittsburghPirates.

The Washington County Board approved the CountyBikeway and Trail Network Plan during its June 12meeting.

At the start of discussion, County AdministratorJoshua Schoemann said “this is just a plan, there isn’tany spending.”

The plan was prepared by Toole Design of Madison,Public Policy Consultants Kit Keller of Cedarburg, theSoutheast Regional Plan Commission and theWashington County Parks and Planning Department.The County Board authorized the Parks and PlanningDepartment to apply for state Department ofTransportation (DOT) grant of up to $90,000 to hire aconsultant to develop a countywide bicycle and pedes-trian plan. The plan included input from the Bike andPedestrian Plan Advisory Committee that included rep-resentatives from towns and municipalities across thecounty.

“The Washington County Bikeway and Trail NetworkPlan (the Plan) was developed to help guide the Countyas it makes investments in bikeways and trails acrossthe County for a wide variety of people–from schoolchildren to casual adult bicyclists to avid road cyclists.The centerpiece of the Plan are seven high-priority, “allages and abilities” bikeway and trail corridors that willconnect all of the incorporated cities and villages in thecounty. The plan will be used as a guide to implementbikeways and trails over the next 30 to 40 years,” the

written report states in the introduction. “The intent ofthis Plan is to give individual communities and theCounty a comprehensive map of future bikeways andtrails, as well as proposed policy and program actionsthat will help the planned trails and bikeways come tofruition.”

The report adds that “increasing bicycling and walk-ing opportunities can improve the health and safety,quality of life, economic growth, and economic andsocial accessibility of Washington County and its citi-zens. The cost of building bikeways and trails is also rel-atively modest when compared to other types of trans-portation or recreation investments.”

The report states that the planning team and coun-ty staff chose seven “priority corridors” out of the fur-ther bikeway and trail network for more student andguidance. The corridors are:

• Jackson to Germantown via Eisenbahn State TrailExtension;

• West Bend to Jackson via Jackson Drive or CTH P;• West Bend to Newburg via Decorah Road and

Milwaukee River Path;• West Bend to Slinger via Ridge Run Park and CTH

NN;• Holy Hill Road-Freistadt Road;• Germantown to Bugline Trail via I-41 Pedestrian

Overpass; and • Pike Lake Unit to Heritage Trails Park to Loew Lake

Unit. The report offers recommendations for those seven

priority corridors.Supervisor Mark McCune cited a portion of the map

cited a portion of the plan along Hwy. 164, which isundergoing construction, and asked if county officialstalked with stateDOT regarding their plans? DeboraSielski, Deputy Parks and Planning Administrator, saidToole Design staff met with DOT officials regarding cur-rent and future road projects by the agency.

Another supervisor asked if there are future fiscalexpenditure commitments due to the adoption of theplan.

“Of course, yes,” Sielski said. She said the estimat-ed costs are identified at the back of the report.

“We’re looking at this plan as a guide for the coun-ty as well as our local governments for planning pur-poses,” she said.

Sielski added the future steps include on a strategicaction plan to narrow the focus of what the countyplans to implement. From there, additional engineeringstudies will be done and the county will work with will-ing land owners to implement the plan. She addedthose items will have to go through the County Boardfor approval before they move forward.

The board approved the plan by a 25-1 vote.- Compiled by Thomas J. McKillen, Managing Editor


in the county. Bossert later noted that much of thecounty's population is in smaller villages and towns.

"The towns are not going to be ignored in any coun-ty executive race," Bossert said.

Supervisor Russell Brandt said he is concernedabout comments raised during an earlier meeting at theWashington County Fair Park that the board and theexecutive may need to have their own staff.

"We haven't done a cost analysis of this. Everythingelse that comes before this board, every resolution, hasa cost analysis presented. I think this is being rushed,I don't think total thought of the process has due dili-gence to it," Brandt said. He also cited lower turnout atthe Fair Park meeting and said he isn't sure the publicunderstands what is involved in the process. Brandtsaid he raised the issue at a local Rotary Club meeting.

"Everybody at that club, the comments they madewere, Why do we want to do this?'" Brandt said.

Brandt, who is also village president of Slinger,notes that municipalities hire professionals to run the

day-to-day operations of their communities.Supervisor Kristine Deiss said she has talked with

leaders in the city of West Bend and others in the cityand none of them indicated support for a county exec-utive.

"I believe we should continue with a county admin-istrator form of government at this time," Deiss said.

McCune said he addressed the concern of having toadd large staff at an earlier meeting. He said when theitem was discussed at the Executive Committee level,the talk has been to not add a large staff as part of thechange. He said that if the motion was approved, theitem would likely go back to Executive Committee for adiscussion on how support staff would be arranged.With a change to county executive, the administratorposition would be eliminated and replaced with theexecutive while support would be through departmentheads

"Our intent was to not add staff and quite franklywe considered it a wash or a push," McCune said, sum-marizing discussion at Executive Committee level.

McCune said the elected executive position will best

serve the county."I'm hoping that we can have someone that truly

represents the entire county and I'm not looking tohave this board shirk its duties for tough decisions,we've all had to vote on those," McCune said.

He added he has the faith in the voters of the coun-ty to elect good people at every level.

"I don't see why that would change," McCune said.A motion to approve the change to a county execu-

tive contingent on ratification by county voters in aspecial election was rejected by a 22-4 vote.

Supervisor Brian Krebs said he has "not been con-tacted by a single person in favor of this change" otherthan other board members. He suggested the board tofind ways other than going to a county executive formof governance "to get the best of all worlds."

Kriefall, in the last comments before the vote, saidhe talked with more 250 people on the issue.

"Every person I spoke to was in favor of it," he said.He added "we're usurping the authority of the citi-

zens by appointing a leader for them," which is why hesupported moving to the county executive form of gov-
