Ludington St. Columbus, WI. 53925 920-623-5919 (Main) 920-623-5930 (Fax) PERSONNEL: On May 13, 2020 Dillon Donahue became the newest officer with the Columbus Police Department. Dillon is from the Jackson, WI area. Following high school he enlisted in the Navy for 4 years and has served overseas. He remains in the Naval Reserves out of Milwaukee. Dillon graduated from the Waukesha County Technical College Police Academy 2 weeks before being hired. He is currently in our FTO (field training officer) program and will train with officers on all shifts. His training will conclude some time in late August or September. Dillon is doing very well. THEFTS FROM VEHICLES: During early May we had an instance of 20+ unlocked cars being entered, rummaged through, and in some cases, items of value stolen. One vehicle had a firearm stolen from it. Operational changes and staffing adjustments were made and continue in an attempt to try and catch and/or prevent it from ocurring. Residents are reminded to lock their cars and not keep valuables in them. None of the vehicles entered were locked. BATTERY TO POLICE OFFICER: On May 25 around 10:15 p.m. an officer responded to a noise complaint in a residential area. Loud music was being played outside as well as children yelling and screaming. The officer asked the person to quiet down and left. Several hours later there was a return call with the same issues. During the contact the subject because physical with the officer, struck him and resisted arrest. She was taken into custody. During a medical clearance at a hospital she again became out of control which required the assistance of additional officers. Felony charges were filed. TRAINING: As mentioned in last months report, I applied for the 6 week, in residence, Law Enforcement Command College as part of my continuing career development. In late May I was notified that I had been selected to attend. It begins the 2 nd week of September, for 1 week a month, for 9 months. Three (3) of the months there aren’t classes. In addition to the classroom, there will be projects and homework to complete between the months. Successful completion will give me the designation as a Certified Public Manager from UW Madison. Fortunately for this class there was grant that reduced the cost to 1/3 of what it normally is. CORONAVIRUS RELATED: In late May the officers resumed their normal work rotation and hours. They had been on a modified schedule of longer and fewer work days to reduce potential exposure risks of Covid19. At the onset of the pandemic, I issued directives reducing a lot of the service related calls or activities we do on a regular basis. We have slowly began moving back to normal. TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT: During March of 2020, officers issued 67 traffic citations, 14 municipal ordinance citations and 48 warnings. I learned in late May that we are eligible for extra traffic enforcement (overtime) that will be reimbursed by the Department of Transportation between now and the end of September. The program is county wide for all agencies. With the new laser unit arriving a few weeks ago, we have plans for extra enforcement on USH 151 and the rest of the city. We are frequently www.cityofcolumbuswi.com Dennis R. Weiner, Chief of Police  COLUMBUS POLICE DEPARTMENT 159 S. Ludington St. Columbus, WI. 53925 920-623-5919 (Main) 920-623-5930 (Fax) dispatched to speeding vehicles, driving complaints, road rages and impaired drivers on USH 151. The laser unit is specifically designed for pinpoint accuracy on moving vehicles and will be a huge asset for enforcement efforts there. Anyone who would like extra enforcement in a particular area should contact the department. We are also participating in the Click It or Ticket national seatbelt enforcement campaign that runs from June 22-July 5. Participation in those campaigns enroll our department in the $4000 equipment grants lottery drawing, which we won one a few months ago. SPEED TRAILER: The speed trailer is now in service, at a location, and being moved around various parts of the city. Anyone is encouraged to request it be set up somewhere for speed awareness. The trailer has very complex software in it that allows us to do traffic counts and run various reports showing all vehicle speeds, averages, high/low, etc. Unit is placed in order of requests received.

Still maintaining the 4-10 hour workdays with alternating shifts and doing our best to keep everyone distanced by spreading out in the building and using separate vehicles whenever possible. We did have a rather pleasant month weather wise, which allowed us to get into the parks and prepare ball diamonds and playgrounds for the summer. Some highlights include: • Prepping ball diamonds at Kiwanis & Meister Parks for recreational summer leagues. This work is often difficult to complete in the spring because the diamonds are saturated from spring rains. • Finish work orders for Senior Center and Library so they are prepared to open back up. This included painting the bathrooms, putting in new ceiling tiles at the Library, striping the new floors, and installing cabinets at the Senior Center. • Work with pool contractors to find leak in City pool and get it repaired. • Laid down new mulch on all City playgrounds. • Put final touches on the new ditch along the Deer Pen. • Spring cleanup in the Hillside Cemetery. This includes cleaning up debris that accumulated over the winter, getting the irrigation system running, and spraying for weeds. • Installed new flags on light poles throughout the downtown. • Install hanging flower baskets downtown. • Staff was trained on the new street sweeper. • Onboarding of summer staff. Full time staff helps to make sure they are comfortable with duties and equipment to help summer staff succeed. My Highlights include: • Continuing communications on the Hibbard Street project. • Working with Columbia County to get the Deer Pen Ditch completed. • Meeting with contracts to get quotes for repairs of the Police Departments failing Stucco. • Working with R&M, Waste Water, and City Administrator to get information to residents regarding the Sewer Lateral Replacement program that was approved by council this spring. • Work with Drexel Building supply to get their storm water ponds formally accepted by the City. • Work with Valido Homes to get the Letter of Credit punch list items wrapped up on Red Bud Trail and Woods Lane. • DPW Administrative Assistant left for a new career so I spent time ensuring I knew all her duties so that I can work with the Recreation Director and the DPW Crew Leader to cover duties until someone new is in place.  CITY COUNCIL REPORT FOR JUNE 16, 2020 MEETING LEVEL OF STAFFING - AS OF 05/31/2020 36 Paid on Call Firefighters - Non-Probationary Members 3 Paid on Call Firefighters - Probationary Members 1 Fire Chief 40 Total Active Members 0 Vacant Firefighter Positions 0 Hiring Process 0 Eligibility List Full staff level for active fire personnel is 40  INCIDENT RESPONSES May 2020 Alarm End City Rural # of Run # Alarm Date Time Time Incident Location Incident Incident Incident Type F.F. 20-050 05/05 2023 2100 N6454 Hwy 73 X Field Fire 9 Mutual Aid to 20-051 05/07 1802 2111 Town of Sun Prairie X 3 SPFD 20-052 05/08 1351 1420 31 Parkview Cir.

ITEMS OF NOTE FOR MAY We are continuing with the adjusted procedures due to COVID-19 as outlined in the report from March. Our usual training had been changed from in person to online assignments. On the positive side, our new truck is here! We picked it up on May 29. We hope to have it in service in late June. We are installing equipment mounts and need to train personnel on operating the truck before transferring equipment from the existing truck and putting it in service. Randy Koehn  Media Coordinator Report – April • Highlights: o Projects: With the decline in event coverage due to COVID-19, I have taken the time to remove all of the old audio system wiring from the crawl space below the Council Chambers, and I’ve cleaned up the existing wiring, too. I have also taken up the task of organizing equipment and putting aside the equipment that is obsolete for disposal. • New Programming Recorded in April: o Common Council/COW: April 6, 21 • April program submissions from public: o Zion Lutheran Church services: 4/5, 9, 12, 19, 26 • Cable/equipment issues: o School Board meeting 4/13: Some unknown issues occurred during the School Board meeting of 4/13, resulting in a recording that contained neither video nor audio. The school district was notified, and the issue has not reoccurred. Cablecast tech support was unable to discern the problem. o Broken equipment: One voice recorder used for video production has failed, leaving only one remaining. These are not good quality recorders and are inconvenient at best for capturing audio, so I am looking into alternatives. o Zoom conferencing, internet connection issues: Some technical challenges occurred at the Common Council/COW meeting of 5/5, which made it challenging for the Council to carry out their regular business. The first issue was that attendees to the meeting via Zoom were unable to hear attendees in the council chambers. To remedy this, we will use an omnidirectional microphone, connected to the laptop from which Zoom is running. This will provide for better audio. The second issue was caused by wireless internet connection speed. Moving forward, the laptop running Zoom will require a physical connection for better signal stability. Our IT provider, Ontech, will help us identify how we can achieve a more reliable, sufficiently fast connection. • Statistics for April: o Cable – VIMEO streaming video plays: 145  on phone: 92, desktop: 46, tablet: 8  Top video: Columbus School Board Meeting, 4/28 (59 views) o Cable – Cablecast streaming video plays: 310  Top video: School Board Meeting, 4/28 (146 views) o City of Columbus Facebook page – 1893   Maximum daily page reach for April: 4408 (April 17 – fire truck post)  Minimum daily page reach for April: 23 (April 30)  AVERAGE daily page reach for April: 647  Maximum daily engagements for April: 1063 (April 17th)  Minimum daily engagements for April: 1 (4 days)  AVERAGE daily engagements for April: 92 o Visit Columbus, WI Facebook page – 130  Maximum daily page reach for April: 12 (April 13)  Minimum daily page reach for April: 0 (5 days)  AVERAGE daily page reach for April: 3  Maximum daily engagements for April: 2  Minimum daily engagements for April: 0  AVERAGE daily engagements for April: 1 • Staff Time Break down for April: o Cable Programming: 73.5 (38%) o Cable Meetings: 15.5 (9%) o City website/social media: 87 (45%) o Tourism: 16 (8%)  Media Coordinator Report – May • Highlights: o Audio system upgrades: On the 29th, AVI upgraded our Council Chambers audio system.

The applicant operates Ammo Box LLC, which sells firearms and related accessories online. After careful consideration, the Plan Commission made that the following recommendation to council: 1. The applicant shall meet the requirements of 114-106 for a home based business 2. Firearms must be kept in a safe or other secure location at all times 3. A Security System must be maintained for the Premises 4. The applicant can hold no more than 5 firearms waiting for pick-up at any given time Update 6-16 Meeting – Following the June 2nd Council meeting staff contacted the landlord to verify that they approve of the applicant have a temporary storage of inventory of the property that is waiting for pickup. The landlord indicated that they are aware that some inventory will be on the premises temporarily. The landlord approves of the temporary storage of inventory provided they meet local, state and federal laws. Staff also contacted the ATF Industry Operations Investigator who is processing Mr. Lindeman’s request. The purpose was to find out more about their requirements and to ensure that our conditions are not redundant or if they contradict the federal requirements. I have attached his response with the packet.

Matthew Schreiber, AICP Director of Planning and Development From: Keeku, Paul M. To: Matthew Schreiber Subject: RE: Federal Firearms License Requirements Date: Tuesday, June 9, 2020 12:15:55 PM Hi Matt, In general a licensee must be able to conduct firearms transfers from the location listed on their license. They would be able to conduct business at other locations such as gun shows or other events dedicated to the sporting use of firearms, but are not allowed to conduct business from any random location. The firearms transaction must be completed ‘in person’ at the licensed premises or qualified event. He would be required to keep his records pertaining to the business onsite. He is allowed to store inventory at another location. There are not Federal Regulations mandating storage or physical security measures. Typically I see where zoning may limit through their conditional use permits how many customers may visit the premises at a time, limit vehicular traffic, require safes for storage of firearms, and limit signs for the business. Let me know if you have any specific questions. Thanks, Paul Keeku Industry Operations Investigator 414-429-9992 From: Matthew Schreiber <mschreiber@columbuswi.us> Sent: Monday, June 8, 2020 3:22 PM To: Keeku, Paul M. <Paul.Keeku@atf.gov> Subject: Federal Firearms License Requirements Paul, I was wondering if you could share the requirements that Mr. Lindeman will have to abide by as a Federal Firearms Licensee. The Plan Commission has placed conditions upon Mr. Lindeman and I want to ensure that these conditions are not redundant or if they contradict the federal requirements. Any guidance you could provide would be appreciated. Matthew Schreiber, AICP Director of Planning and Development City of Columbus 105 Dickason Blvd Columbus, WI 53925  CITY OF COLUMBUS 105 N.

The home occupation is needed for the sale of firearms and ammunition. The sales will be online only and inventory typically will not be stored onsite. Home occupations are allowed as conditional uses provided they meet the 12 requirements of 114-106. Staff has included the requirements for 114-106 below. Under 114-106 Home occupations are allowed as conditional uses in all residential districts subject to the following: (1) Incidental use only. The home occupation shall be incidental to the principal use of the premises as a dwelling unit. (2) On-site sales limited. No article is sold or offered for sale on the premises except that produced by such occupation. (3) Equipment. No mechanical equipment is used other than that permissible for purely domestic purposes. (4) Traffic. No pedestrian or vehicle traffic is generated in addition to that typical for a residential neighborhood. (5) Area of use. Home occupations shall be entirely contained within the interior of a residence or located in garages or accessory structures on the site. No visible evidence of the business shall be apparent from the street or surrounding area. Family day care homes are allowed to have an outside play area which shall be fenced. A home occupation shall use no more than 20 percent of the total dwelling unit floor area. Those home occupations which require occasional meetings using more than 20 percent of the floor space may be permitted, providing such meetings do not occur more frequently than once per month. (6) Employees. The home occupation shall be conducted by family members residing on the premises with no assistance from other individuals or groups. (7) Parking. No parking in the public right-of-way shall occur as a result of this home occupation except for occasional meetings, recitals or demonstrations, and day care pick up/drop off. (8) Changes to exterior. The appearance of a dwelling as a residence shall not be altered in such a way as to change its residential character. Alterations of building material, size or color; lighting fixtures or intensity; parking area; or any other exterior change should not cause the structure to lose its residential character nor should it detract from the residential character of the neighborhood. (9) Nuisance controls. A home occupation shall not create excessive noise, dust or dirt, heat, smoke, odors, vibration and glare or bright lighting which would be over and above that normally created by a single-family dwelling. The production, dumping or storage of combustible or toxic  substances shall not be permitted on-site. Additionally, a home occupation shall not create interference or fluctuations of radio or television transmission. (10) Visitation. A home occupation may attract patrons, students or any business-related individuals only between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. A home occupation shall not generate more than six arrivals and six departures per day by vehicles except for family day care operations which shall not generate more than 12 arrivals and 12 departures per day by vehicles.

All of the products that will be sold will drop ship from my vendors to the customer. The only items that will have customers visiting the premises is possibly an occasional firearm purchase for someone local, wherein they would stop by when it arrives and fill out the required state and federal background forms, or a firearm that needs some sort of repair. The whole business other than that situation will be done from my laptop computer. It’s really more of a spare time hobby type of business. I will still be working my full time regular job and will not necessarily have posted hours of business, more of a “by appointment” situation. Any firearms that are received for the occasional local customer will be stored properly until said customer passes their background just like they were when this was a full on brick and mortar retail store.

One of the reasons for the update is to be designated a Delegated Municipal Authority. The delegation will allow our building inspector to review commercial building permits under 50,000 cubic feet. Currently our inspector can review anything under 25,000 cubic feet. This will allow GEC to complete more inspections for commercial properties and they are typically less expensive and provide a quicker review time than the state review process. LIST ALL SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION ATTACHED: Delegated Municipal Authority Application with supporting information from GEC ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Move the Delegated Municipal Authority application ahead to Council for approval. General Engineering Company 608-742-2169 (Office) P.O. Box 340 608-742-2592 (Fax) 916 Silver Lake Drive gec@generalengineering.net Portage, WI 53901 www.generalengineering.net June 6, 2020 City of Columbus Attn: Pat Goebel 105 N. Dickenson Blvd. Columbus, WI 53925 Re: Delegated Status Dear Pat: As you may be aware, the Wisconsin Administrative Code for building inspections changes from time to time and some of the changes prompt an update to your local ordinances. In addition to any ordinance updates, the Department of Safety and Professional Services (DSPS) is now requesting that municipalities inform the Department of their inspection status for providing commercial construction inspection services; otherwise referred to as “Delegated Status”. Late last year, we sent our contracted municipalities an informational packet concerning the new commercial electrical requirement changes. The City of Columbus has successfully finished that part of the delegation process. However, the State is asking municipalities who provide commercial inspections for construction to now follow through on that aspect of becoming delegated. This will require an application process and ordinance update. There is no fee and no renewal for this delegation. Once approved by the State, your City will be added to a list available on the DSPS website indicating who to contact for inspections. It is possible that your ordinance may lack some of the necessary elements needed to perform commercial building inspections by a certified building inspector for your municipality. To help you with this ordinance portion of the delegation process, I have included a brief ordinance that you may wish to submit with your application with the intent of later updating your local ordinance if needed. We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause. But, different administrations within the State have been pushing forward on certain projects and this appears to be one of them. The process is a good exercise since it prompts each community to review their ordinances to stay in step with the ever-changing WI Administrative Code. This commercial inspection delegation process needs be completed for the inspection department to continue fulfilling that service for the City of Columbus. Therefore, you swift attention on the last part of this delegation process would be appreciated. If you have questions you can contact me directly and I will help you with the application process. Please review the application for approval at your next meeting.

Of note from the previous meeting, the oddfellows have indicated they intend to add a Canoe/Kayak launch as shown on the conceptual plan. Staff contacted Eric Lobner from DNR and his recommended options were Switchgrass, Indian Grass and Big Blue Stem. Typically, DNR recommends a blend of these prairie grasses along with a few other items. I have included my email from Eric for council to review his suggestions. LIST ALL SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION ATTACHED: Conceptual Site Plan, E- mail regarding prairie grasses. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: Update on site plan for Butterfly Trails Volunteer Park  Butterfly Trails Volunteer Park Site Plan The site plan was sketched using GIS and generally reflects the conceptual plan submitted by the oddfellows The proposed site plan includes: 6’ – 8’ strip of prairie grass adjacent to the shoreline/treeline area; 10’ – 12’ trail; 50’ buffer strip of prairie grass; gravel parking area south of the driveway; approximately 110’ by 400’ (which is approximately 1 acre) for the butterfly garden.; the remainder of the site would be grass. One recent development is the location of the Canoe/Kayak Launch which can be seen on the site plan below. The location of park signage and the bike racks would be located near the driveway enterance from River Road. Other amenities that have been identified for the park include: Nest Boxes for ducks and other wildlife, deisgnated fishing area. Version 6/16/2020 From: Lobner, Eric C - DNR To: Matthew Schreiber Subject: RE: Butterfly Garden Date: Tuesday, June 2, 2020 12:46:42 PM Matthew – My apologies for not getting back to you earlier. I had you on my list and meant to give you a ring. As other grass options, I’d recommend also considering Indian Grass and Big Blue Stem to supplement or potentially even replace switchgrass. As part of our standard native prairie plantings, we typically include all three of these grasses as well as some black eyed Susan, Red Milkweed, ironweed and yellow coneflower since the grasses take a couple of years to fully develop and the flowers have a tendency to shoot up quickly providing some cover for wildlife and give the public something to look at as well. These species generally do well in mesic to wet-mesic soils which is what I suspect exist in that area. If you need assistance sourcing some of these species let me know as I may be able to give you a hand. Take care and talk to you soon! We are committed to service excellence. Visit our survey at http://dnr.wi.gov/customersurvey to evaluate how I did.

He mentioned that you recommended different types of grass to act as buffer between the Crawfish and the Butterfly Garden. I was wondering if you could share what grasses that DNR recommends. I know switch grass is one of them but our council would like to know the other options. Thank you!
