Village of Little Chute Monthly Report – August 2018
HIGHLIGHTS
HIRING/PROMOTIONS - With the departure of full-time clerk Inge Murphy, we are in the process of filling that position.
The goal is to fill the position by hiring a new, office manager. The new job description was authorized by the board last
week. We are working on getting the pay structure approved and the position approved. The plan is post the job
internally between both villages.

radio. https://www.whby.com/2018/08/30/fox-valley-metro-pd-chief-on-cooperation-in-law-enforcement/
FACILITIES - The backup generator for the public safety building recently had to have some repairs done to the tune of
several hundred dollars. In speaking with staff and our custodian, it is my understanding that the generator is at or near the
point of replacement. This is something we must start planning replacement for. It is estimated that a new system would cost
between $20,000 to $30,000.
FLEET - Our department currently used Ford Police Interceptors in our fleet. Ford has recently announced that they will be
making some significant changes to the Interceptor by 2020. As such, they are manufacturing only a limited number of
Interceptors for the 2019 model year. We must prepare for the possibility that we might have to purchase another
make/brand of squad cars in the coming years.
PATROL –
o With the start of school, we have had extra patrol being conducted around the schools to enhance safety for the
students.

school zones. The video consisted of an adult, school crossing guard showing the public how to drive in the school
zones.
o Our department was able to purchase a drug processing ventilation hood through a local grant. The device allows
for our staff to open, test and package substances in a safe manner. The grant is through the Capital Credit Union
Elevate Communities Grant. We were awarded $5,000.00. The ventilation hood cost about $3,500. The
remaining funds are being used to purchase other testing and safety equipment associated with processing drugs
for evidence.
INVESTIGATIONS
o Investigator Van Schyndel and Capt. Slotke transitioned into taking the lead on evidence/property management
since Clerk Murphy had previously done this but has since left the department. They are also processing all
evidence requests from the District Attorney’s Office.

o Sexual Assault Kit Initiative (SAKI) kits are coming back from crime lab and follow up being completed.

include child porn, child exploitation, stalking, sexual assault, scam/fraud, domestic violence and drugs.
o Multiple sexual assault cases are being worked on.
o There was a stalking case investigated which resulted in a search warrant for residence.
o Child exploitation case resulting in search warrant for residence.

development revenue bonds of the Issuer (the “Bonds”) on behalf of Peter Pickle Properties, LLC, a
Wisconsin limited liability company, and/or a related entity, and/or a limited liability entity to be
formed (collectively, the “Borrower”). The Borrower desires to complete a project consisting of
financing the (i) acquisition of land and construction of an approximately 68,300 square foot facility
to be located on West Evergreen Drive in the Village of Little Chute, Wisconsin (the “Facility”) and
operated by GLK Foods, LLC, a Wisconsin limited liability company, to manufacture food
products, (ii) acquisition and installation of equipment at the Facility, and (iii) payment of certain
professional costs and costs of issuance (collectively, the “Project”). The Borrower has represented
that the net number of full-time equivalent jobs which the Project is expected to create on the
Project site within three years is 60.
Pursuant to the terms of Section 66.1103 of the Wisconsin Statutes, all requirements that the
Project be subject to the contracting requirements contained in Section 66.1103 are waived, the
Borrower having represented that it is able to negotiate satisfactory arrangements for completing the
Project and that the Issuer's interests are not prejudiced thereby.
THE BONDS SHALL NEVER CONSTITUTE AN INDEBTEDNESS OF THE ISSUER,
NOR SHALL THE BONDS GIVE RISE TO ANY PECUNIARY LIABILITY OF THE ISSUER,
NOR SHALL THE BONDS BE A CHARGE AGAINST THE GENERAL CREDIT OR TAXING
POWERS OF THE ISSUER. RATHER, THE BONDS SHALL BE PAYABLE SOLELY FROM
THE REVENUES AND OTHER AMOUNTS TO BE DERIVED PURSUANT TO THE
REVENUE AGREEMENT RELATING TO SAID PROJECT TO BE ENTERED INTO
BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND THE BORROWER.
The Initial Resolution may be inspected in the office of the Village Clerk at 108 West Main
Street, Little Chute, Wisconsin, during business hours.
TAKE FURTHER NOTICE THAT THE ELECTORS OF THE VILLAGE OF LITTLE
CHUTE MAY PETITION FOR A REFERENDUM ON THE QUESTION OF THE BOND

by not less than five percent (5%) of the registered electors of the Village of Little Chute is filed with
the Village Clerk requesting a referendum on the question of the issuance of the Bonds, the Issuer will
issue the Bonds without submitting the proposition for the electors' approval. If such petition is filed as
aforesaid, then the Bonds shall not be issued until approved by a majority of the electors of the Village
of Little Chute voting thereon at a general or special election.

REQUEST FOR VILLAGE BOARD CONSIDERATION
ITEM DESCRIPTION: Fox Valley Metro Police Job Descriptions
PREPARED BY: Chief Daniel M. Meister
REPORT DATE: September 14, 2018
ADMINISTRATOR'S REVIEW/COMMENTS:
EXPLANATION:
As part of our organizational planning and routine review of the operations of our department, I have
identified some operational procedures that I believe should be changed for us to operate and deliver
services more efficiently.
The three (3) police clerk positions do not have a formal, direct reporting person that they go to for
guidance and direction regarding their work activities. They may seek and/or receive direction from
three or four command staff members – depending on who is available at the time. This can cause a
conflict of orders and communication issues if they are receiving direction from multiple sources. I
have proposed that an office manager position be created. This position would directly supervise and
manage the clerical staff.
We currently have a full-time clerical vacancy and I would like to fill that vacancy by hiring for this
new position – Administrative Manager. I would post the position internally and within both villages.
There is already a pay scale for this position. It is under what used to be titled as the Administrative
Assistant. Based on our current, clerk’s pay rates and the duties and responsibilities of the new
position, I would propose we start the new Administrative Manager at step 8 which is $46,025/year.
This would be a salaried, exempt position as well. The job description for this position was approved
at the last, regular meeting of the Board.
The difference in pay from the previous clerk’s wage and what I am proposing for the new,
Administrative Manager’s position is approximately $4,280. In checking with finance, it appears we
would have these funds available this year yet due to some cost savings from other positions that
were not filled throughout the year. We would then have to add this amount into the 2019 budget as
well.

Approve the requested position and allow for the immediate hiring of this position.

ITEM DESCRIPTION: 2018 Heesakker Park Deer Culling
PREPARED BY: Adam Breest, Parks, Recreation, & Forestry Director
REPORT DATE: September 14, 2018
ADMINISTRATOR'S REVIEW/COMMENTS:
No additional comments to this report: ______________________________
See additional comments attached: _________________________________
EXPLANATION: In 2017, the Village of Little Chute elected to participate in the deer culling at
Heesakker Park. 2017 was a good year as we harvested 4 doe and 2 bucks and had 14 hunters. With the
population of deer at Heesakker Park and the surrounding neighborhoods continuing to stay high I am
proposing that we continue to operate the deer hunt in 2018.
Dates: Monday, December 3, 2018 – Sunday, December 16, 2018
Locations: Heesakker and the eastern portion of Island Park
Amount of Does or Bucks Harvested
2017 - 6
2016 - 8
2014 – 6
2013 – 5
2012 – 4
2011 – 8
I believe that the Deer Culling has been beneficial in the past. I would recommend that we approve the
Deer Culling for this December.
ATTACHMENTS: 2018 Little Chute Policies and Regulations
RECOMMENDATION: Approve the 2018 Deer Culling
POLICIES, RULES & REGULATIONS
Authorized Deer Culling – Village of Little Chute

• Hunt only from an elevated tree stand placed a minimum of 12 feet above the base of
the tree in which the stand is placed. No ground hunting or shooting from the ground.
• Wear a safety harness at all times while hunting from a tree stand.
• Use only temporary, removable tree stands. Remove stand at the end of each day.
• Use a climbing stand of a type that will not damage the tree.
• Remove climbing aids such as stick ladders and tie-on tree steps from the tree after use
when using portable “hang-on” tree stands.
• Maintain your equipment in top condition at all times. Be sure your equipment is tuned
and set up properly.
• Hunt a minimum of 300 feet (100 yards) from roads and any private property.
• Not discharge or project an arrow at such an angle or distance as to land on public or
private property not described in the permit.
• Not discharge or project an arrow or other object onto or over any hiking trail or bicycle
trail within the designated hunting area.
• Track a wounded animal until found. If the animal moves off the assigned property,
attempt to obtain permission to trespass for tracking purposes. If unable to obtain
permission, notify the game warden immediately. As soon as practicable, report the
incident to the Park & Rec Director at 423-3868.
• If unable to locate a wounded animal, notify the Park & Rec Director at 423-3868.
• If wounded animal moves to or dies in a conspicuous area, such as a field, trail, or
roadway, remove the animal from the area and if a problem arises, contact the Park &
Rec Director at 423-3868.
• Unless otherwise directed, field dress animals in the woods, at least 100 yards away from
buildings, roads, or other places where non-hunters travel frequently, and 50 yards from
wood chipped trails.

non-hunting public and other park users.
• Follow all DNR requirements for registering deer.
• Account for all arrows used. Report the circumstances of missing or unrecovered arrows
on the hunting log sheet.
• Keep an accurate, up-to-date log of times spent in the field to include: date, game
harvested, time of harvest, and hunt location. At the end of your hunting period,
promptly turn in the log to the Park & Rec Dept for compilation of statistics.
• Report to the Park & Rec Dept any violation of game laws or program policies, rules and
regulations.
