Approximately 42 percent of the popula-tion growth in Menomonee Falls over the pastdecade occurred in 2019, according to the vil-lage's development report.

The 2019 Development Report was pre-sented by Director of CommunityDevelopment Matt Carran during the March 2Village Board meeting. At the start of thepresentation, Carran -- citing figures from thestate of Wisconsin -- said the village's popu-lation was estimated to be 38,999. The figureis an increase of approximately 6,300 overthe past 20 years and 3,373 people over thepast 10 years.

Currently, Menomonee Falls has the fourthhighest population among Waukesha Countycommunities, behind Waukesha, New Berlin,and Brookfield. Carran said the village is pro-jected to pass Brookfield into third place asthe village's population -- based on data fromthe state of Wisconsin -- is projected toincrease by 3,161 residents between 2019 to2035.

Carran cited figures from the report show-ing that the median home value in the villagelast year was $241,700, an increase of 3 per-cent from 2018. The village housing mix iscomprised of 74.4 percent single family

homes and 25.6 multi-family units. The vil-lage median age -- which had increased forseveral years -- dropped from 43.8 in 2018 to43.7 last year.

Carran -- citing information in the report-- said in 2019 the village had the secondhighest residential construction value everrecorded, coming in at $56.8 million. Thatincluded 130 new single family and duplexhomes with a value of $45.1 million, thehighest in the region. The 130 single familyand two-family homes constructed inMenomonee Falls in 2019 were more thanbuilt in Brookfield, Germantown, Sussex,Lisbon, and Lannon combined. Statewide,Menomonee Falls trailed only Madison in thenumber of single-family and two-familyhomes constructed in 2019.

"From a residential standpoint,Menomonee Falls is definitely a sought-aftercommunity," Carran said.

He then summarized additional housinginformation, referencing data showing that1,942 residential units were constructed overthe past decade. Of the housing units built,763 were single family homes, 676 weremulti-family dwelling units, while the restwere split between duplexes (82 units), inde-pendent senior living (239) and assisted liv-

Falls Village Board eliminates R-7 zoningThe Menomonee Falls Village Board eliminated the R-

7 Single Family Residential Zoning District less than ayear after it was approved by the board.

The board approved a motion at its March 3 meetingto eliminate the zoning. Two residents submitted emailssupporting the dissolution of the R-7 district. No onespoke at a public hearing on the matter.

The R-7 ordinance states it was "intended to pro-vide for the smallest type of individual single-familyresidences on small lots in areas served by municipalsewer and water facilities on parcels of land containedwithin a traditional residential development using newurbanist principals. The R-7 district shall only be usedin areas where the platting of small lots can be success-fully accomplished without affecting detrimentally theneighboring districts."

The zoning was originally approved by the board atits Oct. 7 meeting. The first request for the zoning dis-trict involved a request to rezone a property near thesoutheast corner of Silver Spring Drive and Lannon Road

to the R-7 district to allow for a 210-home development.More than 15 residents spoke against the rezoningrequest during a public hearing at the Jan. 6 VillageBoard meeting that lasted more than an hour, and therezoning request was rejected. At the Jan. 20 VillageBoard meeting, the board unanimously recommendedthe Plan Commission consider an ordinance to dissolvethe R-7 district. The commission supported dropping theR-7 zoning at its Feb. 4 meeting

Conditonal use requests approvedThe Village Board approved two conditional use

requests. The board approved a request from Breezy HillNursery to construct and operate a greenhouse andshade house at N96 W21627 County Line Road.

The board also approved a conditional use requestfrom Jeffrey Wilgus and Leah Neuroth to construct andoperate a dog daycare and bar at the northwest cornerof Silver Spring Drive and Technology Drive. The condi-tional use will allow for the operation of Dogwood Run,

a 12,000 square foot dog daycare bar facility.“The concept is becoming increasingly popular and

creates a place that offers dog daycare services whileproviding a social component,” the village staff reportstates.

Contract approvedThe board approved a contract with Soper Grading &

Excavating for the reconstruction of Sheridan Drive andthe Sheridan Drive Water Main Relay project. The totalbase bid will be $1,667,035.25. Soper was one of threefirms that bid on the project and the work is expectedto begin in April. According to information from the vil-lage, “the reconstruction will include removal andreplacement of the curb & gutter and drivewayapproaches, relaying of the water main and service lat-erals, installation of storm sewer, adjusting of sanitarysewer manholes, and removal and replacement of thebase course and asphalt pavement.”

ing (182). Carran said thatmuch of the development isoccurring in the southwest por-tion of the village, as a lot ofthe land in the northeast por-tion of the village has alreadybeen developed.

In addition, there were ninecommercial projects with con-struction values of more than$1 million. There was a total of65 commercial projects in 2019.

"While we didn't have ahuge one high value (project),we had a lot of quantity,"Carran said. He said half of thecommercial construction valuecame from the InternationalAutos, Milwaukee Tool, Target,

and Delta Hotel/WaterlineCoffee Bistro projects. Newrestaurants in the villageinclude the Alumni Club, HotHouse Tavern, Evie's VietnameseKitchen, Waterline CoffeeBistro, Burger King and DunkinDonuts/Baskin Robins.

Among the developmentscoming into the village aredefense contractor LeonardoDRS and Milwaukee Tool. TheMilwaukee Tool developmentwill bring in 750 jobs in thefirst phase while the LeonardoDRS will bring in 600 jobs. TheTarget project involved anupdating of the interior space.The Delta project involved a$2.8 million renovation to thespace that was previously aRadisson hotel.

Colorectal cancer is a formidable foe.According to the U.S. Centers for Disease

Control and Prevention, colorectal canceris the second leading cancer killer in the

United States. Colorectal cancer is simi-larly lethal in Canada, where theCanadian Cancer Society reports it is thesecond leading cause of cancer death inmen and the third leading amongwomen.

Some risks for colorectal cancer arebeyond an individual’s control. For exam-ple, the CCS notes that a personal orfamily history of polyps in the colon,rectum or both significantly increases aperson’s risk of developing colorectalcancer. Lynch syndrome, a conditioncaused by gene mutations, causes polypsto develop in the lining of the colon, rec-tum or both. Since Lynch syndrome isinherited, there is nothing men and

women can do to reduce their risk ofdeveloping it.

Research into colorectal cancer isongoing, making it difficult for doctorsto say certain behaviors or approachesare certain to reduce a person’s risk ofdeveloping the disease. But there arecertain things individuals can do thatmight help save them from falling victimto colorectal cancer.

• Get screened. The CDC notes thatcolorectal cancer usually begins whenpolyps form in the colon or rectum. Ifthey go undetected, these polyps mayturn into cancer. Screening can detectpolyps early so they are found before

Colorectal cancer, which encompasses cancers ofboth the colon and rectum, is not something to takelightly.

The American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeonsindicates that approximately 140,000 new cases ofcolorectal cancer will be diagnosed and 56,000Americans will die from the disease this year.Colorectal cancer is second only to lung cancer innumbers of deaths in the United States. The CanadianCancer Society has found that colorectal cancer is thethird most common type of cancer in Canada. Womenand men are affected by colorectal cancer with a near-ly equal frequency.

The colon is a lower portion of the large intestines,while the rectum is the passageway that connects thecolon to the anus. The Colorectal Cancer Alliance saysmost colorectal cancers initially develop as polyps,which are abnormal growths. Polyps may become can-cerous later on if they are not removed. The general

population faces a lifetime risk of about 5 percent fordeveloping the disease, states ASCRS, while someonewith a family history of colorectal cancer has a 10 to15 percent greater risk. For people who suffer fromulcerative colitis, the risk for developing colorectalcancer rises to more than 50 percent.

A persistent change in bowel habits can be a firstindicator of colorectal cancer, says the Mayo Clinic.Changes may include a change in the consistency ofstool. Rectal bleeding, persistent abdominal discom-fort, a feeling that the bowel doesn’t empty complete-ly, and unexplained weight loss are other symptoms.

Age is a risk factor for colorectal cancer, so doctorstypically recommend that screenings begin around age50. A colonoscopy is generally used to see the liningof the colon to look for the presence of polyps. Thosewith a family history or other risk factors may needearlier or more frequent screenings. Although doctorsare not sure what causes colorectal cancer, the follow-

ing are some risk factors for the disease.• Ethnic background, particularly being African

American • Personal history of colorectal cancer or polyps• Inflammatory intestinal conditions• Inherited genes and syndromes• Being overweight or obese• Being a cigarette smoker• Using alcohol heavily• Having had radiation therapy on the abdomenSome of the best ways to avoid colorectal cancer

include removing polyps before they become cancer-ous. A low-fat diet high in vegetable and fruit intake,as well as regular exercise, also may lower colorectalcancer risk.

The Mayo Clinic has been a world leader in provid-ing comprehensive, state-of-the-art care for patientswith cancers of the colon and rectum. Learn moreabout colorectal cancer at www.mayoclinic.org

they develop into cancer. The U.S.Preventive Services Task Force recom-mends colorectal cancer screening usinghigh-sensitivity fecal occult blood test-ing, or FOBT; sigmoidoscopy; orcolonoscopy for men and womenbetween the ages of 50 and 75.

• Embrace physical activity. Whilemen and women who are physicallyactive can still get colorectal cancer, theCCS notes that people who live sedentarylifestyles are at a higher risk of develop-ing the disease than those who areactive.

• Maintain a healthy weight.

According to the CCS, people who areoverweight or obese have greater inci-dence rates of colorectal cancer thanthose who maintain healthy weights.The CCS also notes that men with a highbody mass index, or BMI, seem to bemost at risk of developing colorectalcancer.

• Limit alcohol consumption. TheCDC notes that some studies have shownthat limiting alcohol consumption mayreduce a person’s risk of developing col-orectal cancer.

Colorectal cancer is a devastating dis-ease, but men and women who embracehealthy behaviors may be able to lowertheir risks.

NEWS & EVENTS

Community invited to day of free fun March 14 at Spring Fest

The arrival of warmer weather meansdifferent things to different people.Some anticipate opportunities for out-door fun, while others may be consider-ing redecorating or remodeling theirhomes. For the latter group, homeimprovement season provides a greatopportunity to make homes more eco-friendly.

When planning home improvementprojects, it’s best to first choose a projectand then look for ways to make the proj-ect more environmentally friendly. Suchan approach may not only benefit theenvironment, but it also may benefithomeowners’ bottom lines.

Interior decoratingLonger days and warmer tempera-

tures often translate into wanting tofreshen up the interior of a home. Heavydraperies and comforters are put away,and lighter fabrics are taken out of stor-age. Whenever possible, reuse or repur-pose items you already have rather thanpurchasing new items. Longer drapes canbe cut and hemmed to be used as windowtreatments in other rooms. Making apatchwork blanket out of old T-shirts isa crafty project that makes use of itemsthat would otherwise be destined forlandfills.

When laundering linens, skip theenergy-using dryer and let items line dry

in the sun and fresh air. If you decide to purchase some new

items, look for products made from sus-tainable or organic fabrics. Hemp andbamboo textiles have grown in populari-ty. Hemp and bamboo plants grow quick-ly, and their durability makes thesematerials smart choices.

When replacing items around thehouse, donate older items to a charitableorganization.

Flowers and plantsSpring and summer call to mind

beautiful blooming plants. Relying onnative, sustainable plants is practical,environmentally friendly and cost-effec-tive.

According to the National WildlifeFederation, sustainable plants are nativeplants. Native plants sustain localwildlife more effectively than non-nativealternatives, so include native plants in

your sustainable garden. Native plantsalso are less reliant on pesticides andherbicides to keep them healthy andviable.

Don’t forget to bring plants indoors aswell. Even though you may be openingthe windows more, indoor plants can fil-ter and purify indoor air. The NASA CleanAir Study, led in association with theAssociated Landscape Contractors ofAmerica, found that certain commonindoor plants naturally remove toxicagents such as benzene, formaldehydeand trichloroethylene from the air.Efficient air cleaning is accomplishedwith at least one plant per 100 squarefeet of home or office space.

Proper disposalSpring cleaning is another tradition

for many families come the end of winterand dawn of spring. Many people usespring as a time to go through closets

and garages to remove items they nolonger use or need. In an effort to cleanup fast, some people may dispose ofchemical products, paints, treated lum-ber, and many other items in ways thatcan be damaging to the environment.Always learn local municipal guidelinesfor proper disposal of potentially harm-ful products. Area recycling centers mayhave drop-off areas for stains and paints,used motor oil and other potentiallyharmful products.

Before discarding something, see if itcan be donated or sold. This will result infewer items ending up in landfills.

Exercise caution outdoors as well.Runoff from cleaning products used onhome siding or driveways can leach intothe surrounding soil or find its way intosewage drains that ultimately direct flu-ids to public waterways. Choose environ-mentally responsible products wheneverpossible.
