Water Safety: Bill said 17 villages in WI have banned wake board boats. No wake
enhancements on boats. Boat manufacturers would fight it if it was done on a county
basis. Steering committee discussed bringing this to the attention of the Village Board.
Bryan moved to put this topic on next meeting’s agenda under new business.
Passed.
Tony nominated Bill to be Steering Committee chairman, he accepted noting that if
anyone else would like to be chairman he is glad to let that happen. Also, this is most
likely a temporary situation, as he does plan to move in about a year or so. Vote was
called, Bill’s nomination of Chairman of the Steering Committee passed unanimously.
Stormwater committee – Bryan moved we approve the Lake District Capital
Improvements Planning Memorandum per Town and Country Engineering project #1
Zerfa’s Drive and Little Flower Lane Drainag, project #2 1st Street Drainage be
passed and #5 Bay View Channel Cleaning be passed but implemented at the Village
Board’s discretion. Tony seconded, passed unanimously.
Fish Bryan moved we go forward with the estimate from Keystone Hatcheries dated Aug
15, 2024 for $10,000. Jack seconds. Passed unanimously.
Bill stated a resident was granted a permit to build a pier 140’ or so, which is beyond the
length allowed per Village ordinance. (also given the depth.) Next year they need
another permit and that will most likely be denied.

spillway. Committee will look more closely at that part of the report for further
discussion. Bryan moved all members read the document and pay special attention
and assess the functionality of the current spillway as discussed in the report..
Independent of the current water flow issues. Jack seconded. Passed unanimously.
Further discussion revealed previous years’ performance was acceptable and that this
year is exceptional. Water is just not getting to the spillway and therefor the Lakes’
water level is higher.
Bill mentioned we do not have blue-green algie issues like Lake Geneva and E-Colie in
Lakes is due to geese. An idea to keep geese away is to put sprinklers on motion
detectors to keep them off the property. Harvesting geese will most likely alleviate the
problem. The budget for harvesting geese next year has already been approved.
Discussion about steering committee meeting frequency. Monthly during the summer
and once a quarter during winter is the general acceptable frequency.
We welcome Bill Poetker as our new Steering Committee chariman!
Bryan moved we adjourn, seconded & passed.

MEMORANDUM
Date: August 7, 2024
To: Laura Roesslein – Village Administrator
Stan Clause, Jr. – Street Supervisor
Jack Magnusen – Lake District Committee
Bob Livingston – Lake District Committee
Jim Baxa – Lake District Committee
From: Greg Droessler, P.E.
Subject: Village of Twin Lakes – Lake District Capital Improvements Planning
The Village of Twin Lakes is looking to establish a Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) for upcoming
projects in the Village. The intent of this program is to establish a list of projects the Lake District
will fund over the next 5 years and to include the cost of these projects in the Lake District’s
Annual Budget. The original plan was put together in August 2022 but has been updated per our
discussion today.
Per my meeting notes from today, the following projects have been identified for the Lake District
for the next 3-5 years:
1. Zerfas Drive, & Little Flower Lane Drainage: The drainage along Zerfas Drive from Musial
Road to approximately Dietrich Drive needs clearing and reshaping to improve drainage
in this area. The drainage improvements largely include clearing the trees and brush and
reshaping the existing ditches in these areas. The public works staff lacks the proper
equipment, and a contractor should be hired for this operation. This work is best
completed in the winter months as site access is improved with partially frozen ground
and less foliage. The estimated cost for these improvements is $30,000 - $50,000
depending on the restoration of the newly formed ditches.
2. 1st Street Drainage: The drainage from the farm fields west of Carey’s Lake View Park,
just north of First Street drains towards First Street and the channel south of it.
Improvements to this area that include ditching, berming, and stabilizing the drainage
from these fields before it enters the channel should be pursued to improve flow and filter
the water prior to discharge. The estimated cost for these improvements is $20,000 -
$30,000 if the farmer were to grant access.
3. West Side Park Area: The drainage along Musial Road east of Spiegelhoff is in need of
clearing and reshaping to improve drainage in this area. The drainage improvements
largely include clearing the brush and reshaping the existing ditches in this area. This
work is best completed in the winter months as site access is improved with partially
frozen ground and less foliage. The area may require permitting from the DNR for these
clearing efforts depending upon the ditch or creek status in that area.
4. Chapel Hill Drainage: The Village owns a 1.39-acre parcel located between Legion Drive
and Barry Road, immediately west of Chapel Avenue. This parcel serves as a drainage
area to store and treat stormwater prior to it entering the Village’s storm sewer system
and ultimately Lake Mary. The estimated cost of clearing, grubbing, regrading, and
restoring this parcel is estimated at approximately $50,000 - $100,000 due to the

unknown soils in the area. This cost could be near the higher limit if extensive excavation
is done to store and treat stormwater.
5. Bay View Channel Cleaning: The Village would like to plan for the dredging and/or
clearing of the Bay View channel on Lake Mary. This channel is nearly ½ mile long, 25’
to 45’ in width, and serves as a lake access for homes along Bay View Avenue, as well
as a sediment trap for stormwater runoff from a large portion of the Village north of this
channel. The channel contains an estimated 10,000 cubic yards of sediment that could
be either returned to the farms in this area or used by the Village for a variety of
improvement projects. The estimated cost of dredging this large (2.3 acre) area is
$200,000 to $300,000. Due to the cost of this project and potential limited areas to pump
the dredged material for dewatering, this project may be completed over multiple years if
needed.
It was noted that the Committee is interested in the Bay View project possibly including a
walk path in the swampy area, but we discussed the likely need for this to be a boardwalk
due to the limitation of placing fill in the wetlands. This project will likely require
cooperation with the Park Committee as well as a number of landowners in the area to
move forward.
These projects can be adjusted in priority order as needed to fit the budget or other project needs,
and it is important to note that additional projects will likely be added to this list in the future as
projects are completed and additional needs arise. It is recommended that the Village review the
project list every 2-3 years so as to always have 3-5 years of projects prioritized for planning and
budgeting purposes.
