VILLAGE OF WATERFORD Public Works & Utilities Committee Meeting Minutes November, 19 2018 Chair Houston called the meeting to order at 4:00 pm. Present: Don Houston, Fred Koeller, Jordan Karweik, Vesta Goldammer Also present: Jim Bergles, Colleen Schauer Koeller motioned, seconded by Karweik to approve October 15th, 2018 DPW Minutes as written. Motion carried. Waterford Graded School District and Don Becker (Fiber Optic Specialists) approached DPW Director Bergles with a proposal to bury a fiber optic cable from Evergreen Elementary to Trailside Elementary. Concern was discussed over burying the line down Main Street with the upcoming 2019 road construction. An alternate route was suggested using Division Street and Racine Street, and boring under the river. Kohler motioned to have Bergles reach out to Don Becker and discuss alternate route and drawing up new plans. Goldammer seconded. Motion carried. WE Energies provided a final cost projection for the electric facility relocation work at 1st and Main Street. The cost is 45% higher than first estimated, but the work was included in the funding for the 2019 road construction project. The sentiment shared amongst all is burying the overhead wires in this location is essential to the aesthetic appeal of the downtown area and necessary for future development. Karweik motioned to approve the final proposal from WE Energies and send to Village Board. Goldammer seconded. Motion carried. In the past, DPW has accrued extra costs utilizing resources cleaning the Ray Seidel building after use by non-profit organizations that use the building free of charge. An option of adding a $100 annual fee to the fee schedule for non-profit organizations who wish to use the Seidel building to help off set costs. Instead it was discussed that a letter will be sent to organizations when the facility isn’t cleaned properly after use, and the bill for those cleaning services in the future will be sent to the organization. Motion by Karweik to keep fee schedule as is with list of approved non-profits that can use the facilities free of charge. Second by Kohler. Motion Carried. Karweik motioned and Koeller seconded to adjourn the meeting at 5:19 PM. Motion carried. Respectfully submitted by Colleen Schauer, Utilities Clerk

Doug Snyder, Village Engineer, proposed to the Committee a project schedule for the 22 development of an additional Well #6. This schedule would take close to three years to complete. Doug 23 went on to explain, with our current wells and anticipated new developments, during times of drought the 24 Village would not be in compliant and would need to ration water throughout the Village. It was therefore 25 recommended we budget for installation of an additional well. Karweik motioned, seconded by Koeller to 26 start the process of creating Well #6. Motion carried.

I am Dan Becker from MCE. We are the company that the Waterford Joint School hired to design an underground fiber optic connection extending between Evergreen Elementary and Trailside Elementary. I want to contact you prior to beginning any design work on this connection to gather any feedback/insight that you or your staff may have with regard to the proposed connection. My goal of this email is to begin a line of communication with the Village and their engineering team so none of this project comes as a surprise to anyone. I have attached a map of the draft proposed route that we will be looking at for this connection. This map is by no means a representation of MCE’s final product. MCE prepares 1:50 scaled CAD files that include all utilities, structures, right of ways etc. These plans are then used for the contractor bidding and project permitting purposes. MCE will also work with the DOT as I am aware that there is an active reconstruction project taking place on 83 through the Village. Please feel free to contact me at your convenience and we can set up a time to review the District’s goals and the Village’s requirements. Thank you in advance for your time.

Background: Currently non-profit organizations can use the Ray Seidel building and pavilion free of charge. During busy times of the year, we are not able to rent out the building at the usual charge because non-profits already have the space reserved. To compensate for the time and work needed to clean and keep up the building, a $100 annual fee for non-profits is suggested. Financial Impact: Undetermined based on the number of non-profits that would continue to use the space. Submitted by, Colleen Schauer Utilities Clerk Village of Waterford | 123 North River Street | Waterford WI 53185 | 262.534.3980 18 VILLAGE OF WATERFORD DIRECTORS REPORT FOR THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES For additional information: http://www.waterfordwi.org Meeting Date: Nov 12, 2018 Main St Utility Project. Dorner has finished all aspects of the utility project and the final payment has been made. All Inclusive Playground The playground has been completed and is open to the public. By the spring of 2019, Public Works will have all the needed sod laid in place, bids for the asphalting of the parking lot and any other needed items completed. I feel the Siedel building rentals will increase from the addition of the playground. Because of the prospect of increased rentals, the Village needs to take a stronger look at adding a new double door to the west side of the Siedel that faces the new parking lot. The will make for a better entrance and add to the attractiveness of the building. Snow Plowing DPW plows are ready and our budget has approximately $7900 left for salt purchase in 2018. In 2019, the salt price is back up in the $70 a ton compared to the 2018 price of $47 a ton. . Hydrant Flushing The fall hydrant flushing has been completed. Christmas Parade December 1st at 5:30 pm. Roads will be closed at 5:20 pm. The Hwy 20-83 Detour route has been approved by the DOT. The Village detour will be on Elizabeth St from 1st st to Louis St. 2019 Important Dates • Clean Sweep Date – April 27th, 2019 • Large item drop off – May 11th, 2019 and September 28th, 2019 Respectfully submitted, James T.
