Item #7: Discussion regarding Community Survey and Pop-Up Engagement Results Background for Board Report: In the packet are the complete results from our community survey and a photo of the board used at the pop-up engagement event during Venetian Fest. As for the survey, many questions had over 400 responses. This item gives the Board an opportunity to review the results and raise preliminary questions ahead of the September 22nd meeting with consultants. A preliminary FAQ based on the survey results is also attached and could be posted online as a quick reference for community members. Board Role: Discuss the results of the survey and pop-up engagement event and provide feedback on the direction of the proposed FAQ. II. Item #8: Discussion/Recommendation regarding Easement for Alliant Energy in the Conservation Area of Symphony Bay Background for Board Report: The developer for Symphony Bay agreed to dedicate land to the City as part of their Developer’s Agreement. This dedication gives the City an extra 12 acres which includes a gravel walking path and a dog park. The HOA is responsible for upkeep of the dog park while the City will maintain the rest of the area. As discussed in the August meeting, Alliant Energy inquired about an easement along the portion of the property paralleling Townline Rd., in lieu of using the existing right-of-way. Alliant is offering $1.00 for the easement. See the attached agenda memo and Exhibit B for details. Staff has requested clarification from Alliant on why the additional right-of-way is needed and how the $1.00 offer was determined; a response is still pending. Board Role: Discuss the information provided and advise whether the Board supports proceeding with the easement request, requires additional clarification from Alliant before further discussion, or wishes to make a recommendation to Council. III. Item #9: Discussion/Recommendation regarding 2027-2031 Capital Improvement Plan Priorities Background for Board Report: A survey was sent to Board members ranking capital improvement projects to help guide project phasing ahead of City-wide budget discussions. Most Board members completed the survey, and results are included in the packet. The Fitblock outdoor exercise equipment project was not included in the survey but should be discussed separately for potential inclusion in the capital budget if the Board considers it a priority. Board Role: Review and discuss the survey findings and recommend project priorities for discussion with Council.

The YMCA is not very accommodating to all families in the lake Geneva area. The cost is very expensive and you shouldn’t have to have a membership to participate in kid activities like T-ball or Soccer.

DATE 1 We are not aware of young persons needs since we’re older 7/21/2026 6:46 PM 2 I looked online before I joined AWC in Burlington. The Y didn’t seem to have many classes, pool classes for me( 66 yrs). To be honest I didn’t tour the facility because I got a $90 for 90 days rate, as I am in PT currently. So didn’t tour Y yet. 8/7/2026 12:20 PM 3 We need better sidewalks and pathways 8/5/2026 9:41 AM 4 There is money they have to pay to ymca national dues or can only have a certain amount of income. Therefore when new youth recreation programs are proposed they are turned away if they do not fit their current model of “ball sports” for the traditional middle/high school age. We need to offer more for the youth that want an alternative and to be outdoors enjoying sports besides football, baseball, basketball or soccer 7/31/2026 8:42 AM 5 if I haven't heard of it, must not be in the news enough 7/29/2026 6:26 PM 6 LG should have a parks and rec department like Elkhorn. Why should it be run by the Y? 7/30/2026 10:37 AM 7 The fact that the city of lake Geneva charges the ymca a substantially high fee for use of the baseball fields is bullshit. The fee would be more understandable if the city actually did some upkeep on the grounds, facilities, etc. The reality is the city of Lake Geneva is not holding up their end to justify their high fees to cover the maintenance/upkeep. 7/30/2026 8:07 AM 8 How would I understand the partnership as I don’t know the details of said partnership 7/29/2026 9:23 PM 9 However more Is needed as people less physically active than ever and more o ese with an epidemic of both adult and childhood type 2 Diabetes. School age kids on their screens too much and not enough other physical activities; This is not good for bodies or brains 7/29/2026 8:58 PM 10 Ask Mr. Perez the multi millionaire for donations to help LG YMCA. 7/29/2026 5:50 PM 11 is only a glorified fitness center 7/29/2026 5:10 PM 12 My children did belong to YMCA while attending local schools but they are now 53 and 55 years old. 7/29/2026 5:14 PM 13 It serves the youth only that uses the programs above. Need more senior offerings in addition to these. Would also like to see the Y offer less than an annual membership….like a monthly or quarterly membership. 7/27/2026 7:38 PM ANSWER CHOICES RESPONSES Yes, very well Somewhat well Not very well Not at all No opinion Page 35 of 169 3 1 / 142 14 The Y does a great job with the sports programming; we could use some other types of programs. 7/27/2026 1:26 PM 15 Need ice rink & splash pad at flat iron park 7/26/2026 5:22 PM 16 Need more options 7/22/2026 8:32 PM 17 Not enough room or instructors to provide additional classes 7/22/2026 7:25 PM 18 Until people with all types of disabilities are consulted in every aspect of building, program, partnership, and policy design for programs geared towards the public, both the City and YMCA recreation programs will never reach everyone they possibly can. The goal should never be what one person's idea of physically fit and healthy means. a wheelchair user can be physically fit and healthy at their level, that has to be considered, and programs designed for that demographic with input from other wheelchair users(not just standing walking people). The YMCA could be a giant place where everyone goes daily, but they won't be as long as any (minority) group is not included on the board or in consultations with designing a new building and programming. In addition, the YMCA will make more money if their annual fundraisers aren't just for wealthy people. If the YMCA organizes 2-3 smaller scale community fundraisers throughout the year in a location and during a time when everyone can attend, local residents and visitors alike. lots of ideas, ask moms groups, senior groups, church groups, to get involved. 7/22/2026 12:45 PM 19 much just needs to be communicated, not everyone knows all the YMCA offers on a city level. 7/22/2026 5:39 AM 20 Please stop using glyphosate to kill plants along the lake shore. All the plants I enjoy were killed off. 7/22/2026 12:21 AM 21 The YMCA’s recreational partnership activities are defined by the city; it is limited because the city asks / funds it such that the services are limited. The Y would like to offer / manage more services but the city limits them. 7/21/2026 11:24 PM 22 We were signed up for softball and then our team was canceled last minute. We then had to find somewhere else for our daughter to play but it was much too late for her to join many teams in the area. I have a bad taste in my mouth about how this was handled. 7/21/2026 9:42 PM 23 I feel like Lake Geneva relies on the YMCA and schools for activities that park districts often provide in other communities. I feel like we miss out on some program opportunities that the YMCA doesn't have such as more art related programs 7/21/2026 6:18 PM 24 too small 7/21/2026 6:01 PM 25 Would like to see more than sports programs. Nature and environmental and art programs would be a great improvement 7/21/2026 5:58 PM 26 It could I'm sure be better 7/21/2026 6:05 PM 27 Quality is highly variable. If you want to get a coherent program go to big foot high school for youth sports. If you want two lost parents googling youth soccer drills in a convenient location go YMCA. 7/21/2026 5:47 PM 28 Need new facility 7/21/2026 6:32 AM 29 There are no offerings for teens and adults who don't want to do regular sports. It would be great to see more programming for people interested in other hobbies and activities. 7/20/2026 8:59 PM 30 There seems to be gaps in communication and delays addressing day of needs. Example: spring baseball practices were being held at Vet's park, yet the bathrooms were not open. 7/16/2026 10:56 AM 31 Why doesn't the city have it's own programs? What does the city gain from partnering with the YMCA? 7/15/2026 5:35 PM Page 36 of 169 32 City has its own recreational areas which should be used outside of ymca items 7/15/2026 4:43 PM 33 We have a huge opportunity to expand our rec department. All we need to do is look at Burlington or Elkhorn - they are offering theatre camps, Harry Potter camps, scavenger hunt groups etc. These are affordable and flexible optoins. Additionally I'd like to see more variety in sports; youth volleyball for example. Perhaps a sand volleyball opportunity for adults. 7/15/2026 4:11 PM 34 Not enough space for all kids to join and it's hard to find information to actually join once found spots after already filled out the season had started 7/15/2026 9:07 AM 35 It is limited to a handful of sports. There are so many kids that sign up, that it seems unorganized 7/14/2026 1:07 PM 36 Survey is suppose to be for parks not YMCA 7/14/2026 8:15 AM 37 We need a full rec department that serves us, with more than jsut sports 7/13/2026 4:16 PM 38 Not even remotely comparable to Elkhorn and Burlington. We do not have a community aquatic center; and to participate in Y programs at a reasonable cost basis you have to be members vs the taxes we already pay to the city. 7/13/2026 9:23 AM 39 Some prefer not to participate in a religious based organization 7/13/2026 7:38 AM 40 Sports programs offered do not offer any competitive play style for example with basketball after you turn eight or nine it’s basically nonexistent unless you do a feeder program. The same goes with baseball unless you do a travel team. We should also have state of the our facilities given the area that we live in. 7/12/2026 1:17 PM 41 At a certain age athletes are forced to go elsewhere to have more structure and competition. This age is much younger than I could prefer to have my kids in a travel league 7/12/2026 1:02 PM 42 Coach training needs to be mandatory and background checks, as well. Better training for refs/umps 7/2/2026 6:19 PM 43 r you better have a good lawyer lined up. 7/2/2026 5:43 PM 44 no volleyballl /softball adult leagues 7/2/2026 4:59 PM 45 We would like to see more sport opportunities for kids that ARE NOT Travel/Club for kids up to High School. 7/2/2026 11:46 AM 46 Where? I have never seen the city actually be involved or directly support anything from the Y. If anything, I've seen the city distance itself from the Y. 7/2/2026 12:02 PM 47 Lots of opportunity for growth in what is offered for youth sports - the organization of how it is run, the division of levels/age groups, the level of competition as they get older 7/2/2026 8:01 AM 48 The city does not have the expertise to reinvent the wheel in this area. Why can't you two learn to get along and stop squabbling with each other? The YMCA's programs have been in place for decades. The fact that you are sending out a survey shows that you have no clue how to run these programs. 7/2/2026 5:56 AM 49 YMCA is much better at delivering service than any government run programs. They are much more in tune with the needs. 7/1/2026 3:43 PM 32 / 142 Page 37 of 169 33 / 142 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% None of the above Baseb all Baske tball Bikin g (incl ud...

Veteran’s Park Lion’s Den is in shambles — & this is a high-traffic/use park. But what I’d really like to call out is the disaster of the city “bike trails” if you can even call them trails. Nothing is connected, & the state of the trails is retched. Has anyone inspected them over the past few years? There are giant buckles in the asphalt! On the trail that run from Curtis street to the Y parking lot, the guard rails are down, the asphalt is non existent & the mowing job (if it ever gets mowed) leaves about 6 inches of biking space. It’s dangerous. Someone could be killed on these trails. This is a very unfriendly biking community. I had to purchase a bike rack for my car so I can drive my bike to other communities to ride. Biking in the city of lake geneva is dangerous because of your ill maintained trails / lack of connectivity of trails / no bike lanes 7/2/2026 6:03 PM 77 Beach wheelchair mat.

Wheelchair, scooter, stroller accessible picnic tables, you have to get a bit creative, maybe ask a couple different high school shop classes to design some outdoor study accessible table chair combos. Paved wheelchair accessible paths shoveled year round with appropriate corner turning space for a wheelchair (not 90° corners) minimal cross slope. Phone/tablet charging stations, and power wheelchair, scooter charging stations. I think grill should only be allowed in parks near large bodies of water, with increased risk of wildfire, heat emergencies. Rather than expanded playground equipment, how about more "plaques" detailing native plant species, and animals that live in the park, and maybe something interactive. DEFINITELY MORE BENCHES like in home depot park. 7/22/2026 1:47 PM 18 I don't even know where most of these parks are...! 7/22/2026 11:43 AM 19 We mostly hike the path along the lake. 7/22/2026 1:51 AM Page 58 of 169 20 Improve biking paths within the city 7/21/2026 2:55 PM 21 A new user friendly functional boat launch facility with parking at Big Foot Beach Park 7/21/2026 11:32 AM 22 More restrooms on the lake path, please. 7/21/2026 8:26 AM 23 Bring back slides and swings!

The 25 mph speed limit near the park needs to be strictly enforced. The bike paths to the park need to be maintained, they have weeds growing in them, some slopes are very steep for wheelchairs, and the paths from in front of Walgreens have 3-4" gaps a child's training wheel, or a wheelchair caster wheel could get stuck in. Having a city full of parks seems great on its surface, as well as bike paths, except for one thing. The bike paths and sidewalks to get to the parks are not maintained in a safe manner, in addition the level of traffic and lack of enforcement of speed limits and traffic lights make family biking, wheelchair using, seniors walking, and family outings, even walking a dog can be incredibly unsafe. there's a Knowles Nelson trail near manning way in a park where the ground has buckled in the heat I alerted the city to years ago and it was never addressed. for that reason I expect all the time I'm wasting on this survey to be ignored as well. I believe my answer in this box answers number 28 as well. 7/22/2026 1:47 PM 36 Where are all theses parks?

You're kidding, right? We hiked around in there one time, in early Spring, before the bugs came out. The more I know, the more I'm concerned about ticks. I just consider Price-Fremont a refuge for wildlife (when they aren't destroying the plants and yard of my property. BTW, I'm also concerned about ticks in my wooded area.) 7/22/2026 1:51 AM 41 NOTE…MINIMIZE BIKE RACKS AND USE; BIKING ENDANGERS WALKERS AND OTHER USERS; BIKERS HAVE THE ROADS; KEEP BIKES OFF OF THE SHORE PATH….READ THE SIGNS. 7/21/2026 11:34 PM 42 Picnic tables & benches 7/21/2026 10:09 PM Page 61 of 169 57 / 142 43 ADA accessibility 7/21/2026 8:59 PM 44 Pools, water features, art, obstacle courses 7/21/2026 8:33 PM 45 I'm not familiar with many of these parks, which means folks aren't using them, talking about them.

The baseball field could use a little Maintenance kids use that baseball field all the time in the summer they could use a few more amenities like bathrooms or even a grilling spot or picnic area large enough to hold multiple families. Veterans Park should be the shining gym of our park system where I grew up and there was a park very similar to Veterans Park. It was located within town easy to get to and it had very large green space. It’s now used for concerts. They set up an amphitheater food vendors come out they host holiday events there like Fourth of July concerts and they also host soccer tournaments baseball tournaments. They have workout equipment and a nice trail that goes around the whole park with workout equipment spread throughout. 7/12/2026 1:31 PM 70 bike racks, restrooms if none nearby, drinking water, picnic table, etc. should be considered if there are none nearby and their absence is missed 7/9/2026 12:20 PM 71 More garbage cans and benches on Hillmoor zone 1 7/7/2026 8:32 PM 72 Bike rack , water fountain, picnic tables 7/3/2026 11:01 AM 73 Donian Wetland Preserve: ADA accessibility, nature play.

Page 64 of 169 60 / 142 3 Downtown, hillmor 7/30/2026 11:41 AM 4 Would be nice to see Lake Geneva adding bike paths on the roads. S Lake Shore is especially concern and dangerous but having bike lanes on other main roads like Wells, Broad, etc. would be a nice addition to see. 7/30/2026 12:44 PM 5 The trail avoids town. The old railroad through town can be converted to a more formal rail trail. Put the bridges back up. It should connect the parks. A designated bike lane on Wells, Main, Center & Broad Sts. It is not well maintained. Should connect to north branch trail in Genoa City. 7/30/2026 5:41 AM 6 Heading West into town on Highway 50 from Edwards avenue. People have to walk on Road. Additionally, the highway 50 and Wells street intersection is very dangerous for walkers....no sidewalk to corner infront of KFC so people have to walk through KFC drive thru lane. And the cars travelling North on Wells turning right onto hwy 50 can't see crosswalk until they are into turn. We've seen many near misses of cars almost hitting pedestrians. 7/29/2026 9:21 PM 7 Path from 120 to ymca could be better maintained 7/29/2026 8:46 PM 8 No information on current trails 7/29/2026 7:40 PM 9 I think there’s a lack of walking, biking trails thru out the city except the naturally charming, often used Lake Path! 7/29/2026 7:20 PM 10 Improvements can help with signage directing people 7/29/2026 6:23 PM 11 Sidewalks, bike paths, walking paths that connect all parts of the city especially to Hillmoor and Edward’s blvd shopping. 7/29/2026 6:21 PM 12 More safe spots for youth to ride 7/29/2026 6:02 PM 13 Big foot to others, side walks are not great bike paths 7/29/2026 5:37 PM 14 more concerned about lack of ADA accessibility in this town 7/29/2026 5:20 PM 15 Trail to Hillmoor from any where in the city 7/29/2026 5:27 PM 16 Not all are ADA accessibility. 7/29/2026 5:21 PM 17 At the Walgreens intersection; it is very tricky, from Badger down south wells street to 120 trail, South Street to South Lake Shore, I could give a few more:) 7/29/2026 5:10 PM 18 Everywhere needs improvement, you do not understand cyclists needs and you do not appear to care 7/29/2026 5:03 PM 19 Mark trails connection Hillmore 7/29/2026 4:46 PM 20 Veteran's Park, Hidden Oaks, Hillmore Zone 1 7/29/2026 4:49 PM 21 The Edwards Blvd connection across Hwy 50 needs attention—the bike trails behind the YMCA are poorly maintained, and crossing Townline Road poses a major safety risk. 7/29/2026 2:58 PM 22 Many of the walking paths are in very poor shape…..rotting boards in bridges, cracked surfaces etc. The upkeep has not been often enough. Check them out, the path that starts behind the Y ultimately leads to a bridge where the boards are so rotted you could fall through. 7/27/2026 7:56 PM 23 Sage Street, Curtis Street, Dodge Street 7/27/2026 1:39 PM 24 Too fragmented. You need a good planner 7/27/2026 8:51 AM Page 65 of 169 61 / 142 25 South lake shore drive too dangerous to ride on street no trails provided 7/26/2026 5:42 PM 26 hwy 50 needs a sidewalk from Edwards Blvd to Dow town 7/23/2026 8:07 PM 27 Trails don’t connect 7/23/2026 11:50 AM 28 Shodeen promised miles of walking trail in Edgewood Vista and have since taken down the signs and only put up more houses. We don’t even have connecting sidewalks to get to town. 7/23/2026 10:04 AM 29 biking paths down town 7/22/2026 7:24 PM 30 Biking through downtown is dangerous on the road. 7/22/2026 6:52 PM 31 Not on the case of Rushwood Park. 7/22/2026 4:49 PM 32 Where is an existing bike trail, other than off of 120 and out of LG? 7/22/2026 11:43 AM 33 The bike trails lead you to random (sometimes unsafe) areas. Taking a bike trail to the back of the YMCA with nowhere else clear to continue is not great. They all show up and end randomly. 7/22/2026 10:19 AM 34 The bike trail seems to go no where 7/22/2026 7:57 AM 35 Hillmoor 7/22/2026 8:01 AM 36 It is difficult to navigate to the amenities on the east side of town (veterans park) because of the busy roads. 7/22/2026 7:39 AM 37 KEEP THE BIKES OFF THE SHORE PATHS AND OFF OF THE SIDEWALKS. 7/21/2026 11:34 PM 38 Impossible to get to and from Hillmoor from 50. 7/21/2026 7:47 PM 39 No bike lane downtown. Also lacking bike racks 7/21/2026 6:31 PM 40 Need a protected trail from HomeDepot through Hawksmoore to downtown via Main Street. You can get to the car park at hillmore but then have to walk on the side of the road or in the grass to get to Main Street via downtown. Also really hard to cross to that park by the church 7/21/2026 6:56 PM 41 Walking in neighborhood without sidewalks 7/21/2026 6:24 PM 42 Sidewalks or paths between Lake Geneva youth camp, and the State Park 7/21/2026 5:50 PM 43 I’d like to see safer bike routes in the residential neighborhoods like ward 4 where I live. With the amount of tourist and drivers I’d prefer dedicated bike lanes where possible. 7/21/2026 5:51 PM 44 Biking trails are very disjointed 7/21/2026 2:55 PM 45 downtown 7/21/2026 12:41 PM 46 Through downtown on congested roadways, Hilmore, west end of town. 7/21/2026 8:26 AM 47 Symphony Bay to Lake Geneva, connecting LGMS & Badger to the state park, and Hillmoor. 7/20/2026 9:29 PM 48 Connecting Hillmoor to downtown, connecting the middle/highschool to downtown, downtown to Walmart/aldi 7/20/2026 9:30 PM 49 1) The trail behind the Y to Curtis St needs reconstruction, 2) In general the trail network should provide access between 7/20/2026 8:24 PM Page 66 of 169 62 / 142 different parts of the city without riding on arterial roads. 50 Curtis str 7/20/2026 2:46 PM 51 Need a better longer continuous bike path 7/19/2026 8:36 AM 52 South St. connecting S.

I would be hit by a car. We need bike paths along route 50. LG should be a biking community. Think of how much less traffic we would have. 7/15/2026 2:20 PM 58 Is there even a map of where all these trails are or how they connect it’s not posted publicly anywhere that I’m aware of. I would love to even see more trails that connect to the surrounding communities like town of Geneva and town of Bloomfield. 7/15/2026 1:03 PM 59 No signage for any of these and no idea where half are. 7/15/2026 9:04 AM 60 south street/south shore drive; hwy 50 toward williams bay; bloomfield 7/14/2026 8:08 PM 61 Along hwy 50 to Edward blvd to downtown 7/14/2026 7:40 PM 62 Need better paths and bike racks downtown - it connects to YMCA but then feels unsafe to get to downtown businesses from there since there are limited bike lanes 7/14/2026 1:40 PM 63 Behind the YMCA that needs a lot of work as in water sits & becomes muddy 7/14/2026 1:22 PM 64 G 7/13/2026 10:24 AM 65 Viking trails are very weird at our town. They only get you so far before you have to enter traffic to ride your bike as someone who isn’t an avid biker. I don’t wanna enter the road and create problems while I’m biking. 7/12/2026 1:31 PM 66 not clear where bike trails go and where you are to ride of road between bike paths 7/9/2026 12:20 PM 67 Connector to White River Trail , main trail thru downtown, 7/3/2026 11:01 AM 68 From downtown to hillmoor 7/2/2026 10:10 AM 69 There are no safe bike lanes at all! It is dangerous to bike anywhere. Resident studies have shown this for years and the city does nothing! 7/3/2026 7:20 AM 70 Along Hwy 50, St. Francis eastward to shopping areas at traffic lights. All parks should be connected via safe bike paths. 7/2/2026 8:48 PM Page 67 of 169 71 Specific bike lanes or crossings west of town. 7/2/2026 7:42 PM 72 Our trails miss the mark across the board. Please see my previous response regarding the dangers of our trails. Our trails are not connected or well maintained (they are not maintained at all). One of the most concerning areas is on Wells Street — there is no bike lane, & once you get past the schools, there isn’t even a paved shoulder to ride on as you bike towards the next part of the trail/sidewalk that runs along Hwy-120. Worse, though, is the crazy intersection at 120 & Hwy 50. A pedestrian bridge is needed. It’s a death trap. So is the intersection of Townline & 120 — how many accidents are required before you will install a simple stop light?!? Again, it probably doesn’t benefit tourists out that way, so who cares about the safety of the residents, right? Get your stuff together, City! Our parks & trails are a JOKE 7/2/2026 6:03 PM 73 To walk from Southwind prairie/Symphony Bay to the lakefront 7/2/2026 5:54 PM 74 hillmore zone 1 to home depot park, hillmore to hidden woods missing sidewalks, rushwood to seminary park 7/2/2026 5:08 PM 75 The city should invest heavily in the Hillmoor Zone 1 and should connect it all the way to Flat Iron Park with walking/biking trails. 7/1/2026 4:01 PM 76 Please expand trails to get around town and to the stores and parks, business on the outside of town. Look at other tourist towns our size. Our walking and biking trails and opportunities are poor compared to most. Hwy 50 to Walmart and Home Depot, downtown to big foot beach state park and the high school, Downtown to piggly wiggly and LAKE GENEVA pie, aurora. 7/2/2026 2:54 PM 77 120/Edwards from Bloomfield to 50- sidewalks lacking 7/2/2026 12:02 PM 78 Hillmoor.

The entire lake Geneva, Geneva, Lynn township, etc does not have acceptable ADA accessible sidewalks on every street on both sides which is surprising due to the high pedestrian traffic and self-proclaimed "outdoor enthusiasts" 7/2/2026 12:11 PM 79 There are NO Biking or Walking Trails at all in the City.

I had used it for 40 years and refuse now. It’s way to shallow and silted in with sand because too many of the pier company barges use it. When they power out in reverse all the time it’s pulling sand up into that area making it to shallow and then too hard to get a boat off the trailer.

Get the rocks out of the water and back on the shoreline. 7/26/2026 7:31 AM 100 Close Wrigley drive and have open for walking. To crowded for driving and parking cars… Ban large trucks ie Ford 150s from parking in angled parking spaces. These vehicles stick to far out I.

Build a parking structure. Do something with Hillmoor. We don't need another music venue. Tell the old people to let it go and get walking paths or even the YMCA to build a new building. The old people are chasing away any progress to be made in this town, because they don't want to see change. 7/22/2026 7:46 PM 106 Wider biking paths 7/22/2026 7:32 PM 107 More bathrooms.

It is near impossible for us as residents to enjoy the lakefront in the summer and we shouldn't have to pay to use the beach. 7/21/2026 9:54 PM 124 Somehow dealing with the limited amount of available parking. Maybe make the street in front of the Riviera/Nicks/library/Oakfire a “walk street”, no cars allowed. Build a parking garage nearby if possible. Or… build a pedestrian walkway bridge at the intersection of Center/Broad Street to help with traffic and pedestrian safety. 7/21/2026 9:22 PM 125 No parking or launching in town 7/21/2026 9:04 PM 126 Tear down and rebuild riviera. Interior is old, dirty dark, and should be new, nice shops restaurants. Update, make inviting, make a place people want to go hang out. Make the outside an interesting place to hang out, sit, see interesting sculptures, art, colors, cool inviting spot. It’s just a big blank piece of concrete surrounding a fountain, and a very dim lit, dark, dingy interior with cheesy old shops. What a wonderful spot this could be with, restaurants, fun shops, activities for families etc. Boat launch should be moved out of town. 7/21/2026 8:39 PM 127 Increased boat launch parking 7/21/2026 8:24 PM 128 you close down wrigley drive and make it a park. 7/21/2026 7:50 PM 129 Moving the traffic off of wrigley Drive 7/21/2026 7:27 PM 130 Cleaner beach, less people 7/21/2026 7:24 PM 131 Less car traffic 7/21/2026 6:59 PM 132 More events 7/21/2026 6:58 PM 133 Umbrella tables 7/21/2026 6:29 PM 134 Beach umbrellas, chairs 7/21/2026 6:25 PM Page 84 of 169 80 / 142 135 Having access to the lake and enjoying it yar round 7/21/2026 6:15 PM 136 Marina expansion 7/21/2026 6:08 PM 137 A decent fishing pier , the current is not only in wrong place but too small 7/21/2026 6:10 PM 138 conservation 7/21/2026 6:08 PM 139 Add more piers eliminate the buoys. 7/21/2026 5:56 PM 140 More unique activities for children.

Add bigger slips (30') that will allow for the Swift Shield boat cover system. At least 6 current lease holders would transfer into those slips. 7/1/2026 5:48 PM 240 difficult to do, but it would be nice to find a way to get some revenue out of all the visitors that picnic etc all day long and leave garbage without spending a penny. they take up parking, including any that is free. 7/1/2026 4:02 PM 241 Keep the sand clean. 7/1/2026 4:14 PM 242 Beach for residents only. 7/1/2026 3:47 PM 243 A Marina 7/1/2026 3:41 PM Q37 What type(s) of new uses would you NOT like to see on the Lakefront?

Never closing down Wrigley drive for restaurant expansion or food truck areas. #2. No more expansion of city pier systems for boat slip rental purposes. And reduces the beautiful view.You can observe while sitting in park benches from the library to the west towards maxwellstreet. Any further additional infrastructure would obscure that view. 7/31/2026 8:51 AM 6 More rental boats 7/30/2026 9:24 PM 7 No more Pavement or Turf grass. 7/30/2026 7:07 PM 8 No response 7/30/2026 5:02 PM 9 Anything that increases boat traffic. 7/30/2026 7:56 AM 10 Nothing. 7/30/2026 2:34 PM 11 No more commercialization 7/30/2026 1:46 PM 12 taxes and beach fees should handle these expenses without more piled-on, per use fees 7/30/2026 1:34 PM 13 I liked when events like Oktoberfest was not so commercialized. I prefer some activities that are more local, and benefit the 7/30/2026 1:06 PM Page 89 of 169 85 / 142 clubs like Boy Scouts, etc, and the local stores. 14 Over-expansion of piers/mooring areas without a plan for traffic flow. 7/30/2026 12:49 PM 15 More piers and docks 7/30/2026 11:11 AM 16 Large man made structures near the lakefront. Giant resorts too close to the lake. Privatization of shore path. Overall reduction of access to the water. 7/30/2026 8:41 AM 17 Parking lots 7/30/2026 8:22 AM 18 Expensive unnecessary sh** that costs residents more money 7/30/2026 8:19 AM 19 Commercialization 7/30/2026 7:36 AM 20 Would not want free entry to the beach to ensure no homeless people populate there 7/30/2026 7:03 AM 21 It’s so difficult to see the parks mob with people that come in and picnic there all day, they leave a bunch of garbage behind, and are really not contributing to the city at all other than a minimal parking fee. I feel like there should be a need for a paid permit for non-residence to picnic, especially barbecue in library park. It is so crowded and it is often left and complete disarray! The local citizens seem to be spending a lot of money in tax dollars to pay for things that other people leave behind. Also, I really don’t think we need any of the things you’re suggesting, it seems like you’re looking for a way to spend money! 7/29/2026 10:41 PM 22 Weddings 7/29/2026 10:29 PM 23 More infrastructure 7/29/2026 9:40 PM 24 Not sure 7/29/2026 9:31 PM 25 Man made structures 7/29/2026 9:25 PM 26 Closing Wrigley drive for events 7/29/2026 9:23 PM 27 More boat rental businesses, there already too many.

The Lake Geneva Cruise Line pier for one thing is horrendous for wheelchair users. Horrendous. I personally would not like to see the ADA riviera lower level shops entry doors not working 5 years post $10m redo. these doors have been repeatedly replaced, and they're hard to see, dangerous to operate, blocked by long lines to restrooms and shops. i would not like to see the only City ADA beach entrance continue to be associated with GARBAGE DUMPSTERS. I would not like to feel like an alien in my hometown every time I go downtown and try to utilize city services, sidewalks, public accommodations, restrooms, parks, etc, simply because I use a wheelchair. no. I would definitely not like to continue seeing discrimination everywhere I go. but since the current federal administration is readily promoting discrimination I fully expect that to be the direction the city if Lake geneva goes in as well, bringing down everyone with them 7/22/2026 2:07 PM 83 more traffic 7/22/2026 11:50 AM 84 Anything that seems to be aimed at just attracting tourists and not for the benefit of the residents as well. 7/22/2026 10:22 AM 85 Construct water/splash pads and other recreational play areas 7/22/2026 8:03 AM Page 92 of 169 88 / 142 86 It doesn't need to be any more touristy. 7/22/2026 7:33 AM 87 Too much expansion 7/22/2026 7:01 AM 88 I lived in Marin County, home of the mountain bike. Many trails that we once enjoyed were ruined by mountain bikers. Bikers were aggressive, arrogant, and dangerous. I used to motocross. These activities do NOT mix with hikers. Keep bikers off of hiking trails, especially electric bikes!!! I used to think rails to trails was a fantastic use. Now I lament the fact that we transferred the cargo to giant trucks. Rails to trails are okay for bicycles and hikers. Sadly, there just isn't room for bikes and hikers in LG. Hikers should be given precedence! Don't allow bikers to ruin hiking here in LG! 7/22/2026 2:16 AM 89 BIKE ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE SHOREPATH. IT ENDANGERS THE WALKERS. COMMERCIAL OR CHARITY USE OF THE SHOREPATH SHOULD BE LIMITED OR BANNED. 7/21/2026 11:41 PM 90 Resorts, restaurants, parking lots 7/21/2026 9:41 PM 91 Anything that would make billionaires richer. 7/21/2026 9:22 PM 92 more boats. 7/21/2026 7:50 PM 93 Higher prices 7/21/2026 7:24 PM 94 Commercialization of the space 7/21/2026 6:59 PM 95 Skate boarding, scooters hazard for walkers 7/21/2026 6:29 PM 96 E bikes motorized scooters 7/21/2026 6:25 PM 97 No more housing being built and keeping the accessible areas accessible 7/21/2026 6:15 PM 98 More boat piers or vendors 7/21/2026 6:10 PM 99 Hotels, houses, parking lots 7/21/2026 6:08 PM 100 More garbage restaurants coasting on overcharging tourists.

Maybe a grandparent/youth after school program, a senior night, maybe an AA group (there are no non denominational, wheelchair accessible locations in LG), maybe a parent could teach a cooking class, maybe a holiday cookie walk, craft sale or rummage sale, a space big enough for a state if emergency meeting place or natural disaster community meal. Also maybe a place where the community could come together last minute in a joy or tragedy, maybe a last minute wedding for a couple in their 80's, or a memorial service for a person who had no family. It should be centrally located easily accessible day and night for all ages year round by walking, biking, wheelchair walker, scooter, paralift van drop off and pick up space in lot. A community center on Hillmoor property would be centrally located, as long as getting there is safe in day and night year round by all ages.

Except there are about 13 buoys that never have boats on them. I count often and feel resentful of it. 7/22/2026 2:55 PM 4 Location. Just found another place for my boat. 7/22/2026 6:36 AM 5 It meant having to launch boat to go fishing and use our terrible launch with bad traffic, no enough trailer parking, no handicapped washrooms or proper boat washing station for invasive weeds. 7/21/2026 12:02 PM 6 Safety must win. The lake needs fewer boats, not more. Just find a way to serve those already on the water- not attract more 7/17/2026 6:52 PM 7 Please put in more slips and charge more for them. Geneva Inn gets $6500 per year and still has a wait list!!! 7/15/2026 9:05 AM 8 Close to my house, could walk to slip. Loss is can’t use my boat, can’t afford to dock it anywhere else, Too old to use a buoy 7/14/2026 5:09 PM 9 I only took spot there because it was all that was available.

Answered: 93 Skipped: 444 # RESPONSES DATE 1 Parking 7/31/2026 3:39 PM 2 Relocate boat launch to bigfoot beach state park lagoon area. Much more room to establish a larger launch and parking area to accommodate more vessels and would greatly reduce traffic congestion in the downtown area. 7/31/2026 9:09 AM 3 A clear path for kayak launch avoiding other boats and dogs. A more stable dock. 7/30/2026 8:37 AM 4 Have more slips available 7/30/2026 2:42 PM 5 Clean all the sand off your boat ramp 7/30/2026 10:19 AM 6 Clean well maintained bathrooms 7/30/2026 7:13 AM 7 More kayak access 7/30/2026 5:54 AM 8 N/A 7/29/2026 10:52 PM 9 There are not enough kayak racks for residents. We shouldn’t have to wait for 5 years to get a spot and we shouldn’t have to pay to put our kayaks in the water. We’re not even using a pier 7/29/2026 8:48 PM 10 Move the police boat to a slip. Current location is the best site for passenger pick up and drop off with a sailboat. 7/29/2026 7:51 PM 11 Improve the areas unloading boats into the lake in linn, and down the road from Foleys restaurant. 7/29/2026 6:51 PM 12 Monitor rental boat operators and driving instructions and capability to operate 7/29/2026 6:24 PM 13 More boat slips by the riviera 7/29/2026 5:55 PM Page 133 of 169 129 / 142 14 Raise price to consumer. 7/29/2026 5:48 PM 15 close launch and move to Big Foot. Let the state support parking , etc. With 120 not going that way there would be less traffic issues than 50 + years ago. Would improve traffic flow along Flatiron Pk. 7/29/2026 5:36 PM 16 Easy if access and short waiting list. 7/29/2026 5:43 PM 17 I have a subdivision slip. 7/29/2026 5:14 PM 18 Organizing the boat launch. 7/29/2026 5:11 PM 19 Easier launching 7/29/2026 5:06 PM 20 More boat slips 7/29/2026 5:01 PM 21 Launching 7/29/2026 4:59 PM 22 Quit spending taxpayers money on unnecessary bullshit 7/29/2026 4:49 PM 23 Security 7/28/2026 9:04 AM 24 More non-motorized boat spaces. 7/27/2026 1:58 PM 25 More security.

And easier more seamless and less stressful docking 7/21/2026 8:30 AM 44 The parking is not organized, and it's difficult to get kayaks and stand up paddle boards in.

Safety 7/17/2026 6:52 PM 48 In 25 years only 1 boat slip has ever become available to us. We used it for 1/2 a season. No dockage or moorings are ever available and even if they were, the cost is absurd. 7/17/2026 5:35 PM 49 Parking 7/17/2026 2:01 PM 50 Have a webcam that provides real time status of parking spots by launches. This way boaters aren't driving to one only to realize the lot is full and they need to go to a different launch. 7/16/2026 11:43 AM 51 Restrooms and docking areas 7/16/2026 8:03 AM 52 Add additional slips and parking for boats to enjoy the city 7/15/2026 6:03 PM 53 more slips 7/15/2026 4:09 PM 54 Better security 7/15/2026 9:12 AM 55 They are fine the way they are but are way underpriced!!! If you raised the price of the slips you would lose some current renters but you would have no trouble replacing them. 7/15/2026 9:05 AM 56 Would appreciate reflectors on top of the buoys (like there are by Cedar Point in Wms. Bay) when coming back in the evening. 7/14/2026 9:52 PM 57 Need more available boat slips for residents 7/14/2026 5:09 PM 58 Parking 7/14/2026 3:53 PM 59 Too crowded…too much going on in a small spce Too much drinking on boats 7/14/2026 3:07 PM 60 Don't add more boats or piers. 7/14/2026 2:17 PM 61 I don't think we are in the market for boating any more - too much hassle for us at this point 7/13/2026 5:00 PM 62 Lighting 7/13/2026 8:19 AM 63 Additional slips at the west end pier! 7/10/2026 10:24 AM Page 135 of 169 131 / 142 64 ADD more boat slips to west end pier. 15 - 20 year wait is unfair. Limit rental boats. Ban wake runner boats as they are very bad for the environment 7/8/2026 5:07 PM 65 Buoys are to be removed and docks added in their place. We are open to transient dock parking to reduce costs for slip owners and open to the public to encourage visits to our town, thereby reducing taxes. Also, a walk-out section would allow the public to enjoy a clear view of the lake. We would also love to see it as a public use of the Riviera or an addition to it that could be a marina, located between Marina Bay and Riviera Pier. 7/7/2026 12:36 PM 66 Allow storage box on pier for boaters, allow boaters to have access to power for the lifts solar doesn’t seem to always cut it for lift power. 7/6/2026 6:20 PM 67 Adding slips and decreasing number of buoy’s 7/5/2026 7:22 PM 68 SECURITY and CAMERAS 7/5/2026 10:42 AM 69 keep annual pier rental affordable for local residents 7/3/2026 11:37 AM 70 Improved security, web cams on the boats 7/3/2026 11:16 AM 71 Trailer parking 7/3/2026 9:51 AM 72 Sell police boat. 7/3/2026 7:45 AM 73 Not have to wait 20 years to get a slip - and yes we are on a buoy and on the waiting list and yes we are full time residents of the city and vote here 7/2/2026 7:53 PM 74 The Riviera Pier Gas dock was supposed to be replaced and raised 3+ years ago and that work has not been done as promised, which is extremely disappointing. What's even more disappointing is the fact that due to the neglect and continued damage we haven't been able to access our slips on the Riviera Pier on our contracted May 15th date for 3 years in a row. This is completely unacceptable. 7/2/2026 4:53 PM 75 I think they should add a few more slips and add a gate with a code to be given to all boaters on the balls and in slips so that random people aren’t going on the piers. 7/2/2026 3:37 PM 76 More affordable 7/2/2026 3:02 PM 77 More slips and buoys right now there’s none available 7/2/2026 12:29 PM 78 Put in a new Library Park Pier for Residents Only of 50+ slips & get rid of the waitlist, please! (We'll be deceased by the time that waitlist applies to us as residents!) 7/2/2026 11:55 AM 79 Parking and access 7/2/2026 8:21 AM 80 LEAVE IT ALONE! You have no business competing against established businesses already in place to service the boating community. Concentrate on the government of the city and do not try and replace the businesses that support the city and it's residents 7/2/2026 6:22 AM 81 More slips 7/2/2026 1:23 AM 82 More piers on west end by library park 7/1/2026 11:13 PM 83 Spanish boat rentals.

All slips 7/1/2026 3:50 PM 93 Marina 7/1/2026 3:50 PM Q60 Is there anything else the City's planning team should know about your parks, recreation, or lakefront priorities? Any other input that you would like to share? (fill in the blank) Answered: 169 Skipped: 368 # RESPONSES DATE 1 Please keep Hillmoor a nature park. Splash pads are full of chemicals, bad for wildlife and people. CDC has alerts about them. 8/5/2026 9:51 AM 2 Parking parking parking 7/31/2026 3:39 PM 3 In your current hillmoor plans , the committee has decided to put all future amenities in the current area in the lowlands around the white river, nrer Eastview school. I think you should consider using the upper portion of that property for some of the future infrastructure you seek to install. Primarily, the amphitheater should go on what was known as the Bear trap, on the 14th hole. It's a natural hole that you could make seating into out of the earthen material that is present at that location, and that also would not become a major noise nuisance to residents that currently live close to your proposed amphitheater location in the far north western corner of the property, which used to be the green of the 11th hole of the golf course. 7/31/2026 9:17 AM 4 Public pier available No fee to use a paddleboard for a resident Make use of Hilmoor location with or without building a community center Close down Wrigley Drive to cars between Main & Broad 7/31/2026 9:08 AM 5 I enjoy walking and just wish I felt safer as a woman walking through Hillmoor by myself. I feel Hillmoor is vastly underused and could benefit by bringing activities like a bird watching group or a star gazing evening that would bring more people to the area. It is a beautiful place and I am so happy the city purchased the property. 7/30/2026 9:30 PM Page 137 of 169 133 / 142 6 We need to work with the natural environment and not forcefully against it. Hillmoor offers an incredible opportunity to provide an educational interpretive learning environment to inspire people of all ages to get out into nature, to learn and protect the incredible ecosystems in and around the Geneva Lakes area. A purposeful and intentional use of this space would take some pressure off the downtown area during peak season while simultaneously providing a greatly needed community center for the residents of Lake Geneva and neighboring communities. The current YMCA has limited hours and programming at a higher price point than a properly funded community center can provide. 7/30/2026 7:22 PM 7 The city paid for Hillmoor and nothing has been done. Come on people, get your act together and start using this beautiful land to benefitvour beautiful city!! 7/30/2026 7:07 PM 8 Nothing at this time. 7/30/2026 5:04 PM 9 Some consideration given to full time residents to be able to better enjoy our lake. 7/30/2026 3:57 PM 10 Lake Geneva is a beautiful town. It has everything. Since we have lived here I feel it has gotten so much more busy and crazy but I also understand it brings money into our town. 7/30/2026 2:44 PM 11 I would like if all LG residents & visitors visited our wonderful parks! 7/30/2026 2:38 PM 12 need more parking 7/30/2026 1:56 PM 13 remove Flock Safety cameras 7/30/2026 1:54 PM 14 please just have some reasonableness in your decisions 7/30/2026 1:42 PM 15 That the city needs to be more attentive to restrooms considering this is a tourist area 7/30/2026 10:54 AM 16 Clean the sand off your boat ramp 7/30/2026 10:20 AM 17 The west gate tot lot has not been updated or taken care of for years. The swing set is so squeaky kids don’t want to swing on it. The wood chips underneath the swings are completely grown over. The equipment is very outdated and the teeter tauter is hard to use. 7/30/2026 9:09 AM 18 A new, properly planned, YMCA facility on the former Hillmoor property could act as a Community Center. There is an obvious partnership possibility between the Y and a Community Center…. 7/30/2026 8:48 AM 19 Lived in LG for 12 years, and take family there a few times a year 7/30/2026 8:02 AM 20 Would like hillmoor to have nice well Maintained and safe walking paths. Fine with community center there if still able to have many pretty walking paths. 7/30/2026 7:14 AM 21 There are plenty of parks with limited trails for bikes. They’re mostly hiking trails. Hillmore would be a great area for additional bike trails. 7/30/2026 5:56 AM 22 Prioritize residents not tourists! 7/29/2026 10:52 PM 23 Lake Geneva needs more beach volleyball! A sport that defines summer and fun. If you visit FL or the Carolinas there is plentiful opportunity to play. I feel that if there were more nets, the youth and adults would gather! Also, a local art studio with classes aimed towards elementary and middle school would be utilized as well. I would travel down to Mchenry, IL (Studio) because there was nothing like it in or near Lake Geneva. 7/29/2026 9:48 PM 24 Put a gate on boat docks. Only boat owners should be on there 7/29/2026 9:38 PM Page 138 of 169 134 / 142 25 Stop spending irresponsibly!!! 7/29/2026 9:29 PM 26 Too many air B n B so there are no families moving into the neighborhood people want tto live in a neighbothood noy many streets owned by people that do not use the properties Its just another commercial enterprise Taxes are too hich There is no building inspector so it takes forever to get a permit 7/29/2026 9:20 PM 27 Hillmoor should be turned into a real city park. That includes activities and amenities for people of all ages and abilities. For a food example view kinetic park st charles county missouri. 7/29/2026 9:01 PM 28 Community center for fitness classes would be a good addition. No need for art classes- we already have four wonderful art studios/ maker space options 7/29/2026 8:55 PM 29 It seems that everything done is Lake Geneva is to entice more tourists. We have the highest mill rate in Walworth County, but the resident tax payers are not given priority. 7/29/2026 8:51 PM 30 Level the kayak launches at West End Pier. 7/29/2026 7:52 PM 31 No 7/29/2026 7:48 PM 32 Such a beautiful area, and it needs to be showcased, and used by the entire population. 7/29/2026 7:45 PM 33 The new additional playground at Veterans park, was poorly thought out. The much used volleyball courts were taken out. The new equipment is not really toddler friendly and the whole set up could have been made to facilitate lots of kids. All the anticipation of the build and it was a let down. Meanwhile the existing park has equipment that needs upgrades and the space where equipment was removed and nothing was put in its place. 7/29/2026 7:43 PM 34 My family lives close to Rushwood park and it needs attention pleases, the equipment is tired and some of it was just removed as it aged out, the one trash can it had has disappeared, the couple seats that are there are not near or facing the play equipment so not helpful for parents trying to watch their kids. 7/29/2026 7:08 PM 35 I think you should approach Mr. Perez who bought Richard's 34 million dollar mansion 2 years ago about a tax write off pledging a couple million dollars to help out lake Geneva and the mayor planning commission 7/29/2026 6:54 PM 36 The downtown traffic should prioritize pedestrians. Even if you drive downtown if it always takes forever to cross the street your going to consider other places, whether you are a resident or a tourist. If you use your head you can always use alternate streets to drive on. You have no choice if you want to enjoy downtown, EXCEPT STAND AROUND ALOT TO BE ABLE TO WALK ANYWHERE DOWNTOWN. 7/29/2026 6:51 PM 37 Limit amount of boaters allowed on the lake and more police on the lake to address excessive speeding, dangerous drunken boaters and not observing slow wake areas making it unsafe for people fishing, paddle boarding and kayaking and swimming with the bad wakes from their boats 7/29/2026 6:27 PM 38 I live near Hillmore. Excited to see what does with it! 7/29/2026 6:26 PM 39 This city has gotten away from family and more to out of towners. Thats why we are loosing kids in our schools and the kids that are here realy have nothing to do but get into trouble. We need to focus on family friendly again or more and more familys will leave. 7/29/2026 6:20 PM 40 Remember your surrounding communities support LG too! 7/29/2026 6:14 PM 41 Lake Geneva is beautiful. Be responsible long term so we can keep it nice. 7/29/2026 6:06 PM Page 139 of 169 135 / 142 42 Nothing 7/29/2026 6:02 PM 43 Honestly It is beautiful But the Indians and Muslims have started dumping trash as they walk around or drive around lake geneva We need to enforce littering laws with stiff fines I have to pick up trash on a daily basis around our home And when on walks along the beach and walking trail This was unheard of years ago But with the increased tourism by Indians and Muslims This has exponentially increased 7/29/2026 5:58 PM 44 Restroom options at appropriate intervals on the shore path - I know would require coordination with surrounding communities. 7/29/2026 5:55 PM 45 More identification plaques. 7/29/2026 5:49 PM 46 No boats in the lagoon 7/29/2026 5:45 PM 47 You really need to focus on improving Beach State Park. It is an eyesore and has never been truly improved upon. Better sand and beach conditions. Widen the sand area. Try and beautify this area! 7/29/2026 5:44 PM 48 Best thing we have done in recent years is to build the 6 pickleball courts. We need 6 more at veterans park. 7/29/2026 5:43 PM 49 I don’t have a boat but adding more slips and removing the buoys would improve the look by Library Park. It would eliminate all the kayaks, dinghy’s, etc in front of the dog pier. 7/29/2026 5:32 PM 50 Please update Rushwood Park for neighborhood children and grandchildren. It has been the same for over 40 years. 7/29/2026 5:23 PM 51 Thank you for gathering community input! 7/29/2026 5:20 PM 52 Improving the lake path. 7/29/2026 5:12 PM 53 Ask focus groups like cyclists what you are doing right & wrong. 7/29/2026 5:10 PM 54 When we were kids you could skate on the ice. Ice castle were great. More things to do in the winter for families 7/29/2026 5:07 PM 55 Stay focused on supporting lake life (need more restaurants with docks!) and maybe add a splash pad or kids pool near the marina We don’t want to attract too much activity to the lake front or the foot traffic and activity will destroy the parks. Thanks for taking the time to create this survey and allowing the public to share ideas! 7/29/2026 5:07 PM 56 I am adamantly against anything new until existing parks are being adequately maintained. I also want all parks to have tickets issued for dogs not on leashes. Recently was at park on H by pioneer homes and was scared by dog not on leash. That park is in terrible condition and upkeep has been horrible. I can see some recent changes recently but had deteriorated badly for years. 7/29/2026 5:00 PM 57 Improve take care of what we have 7/29/2026 5:00 PM 58 You spend too much taxpayers money. Stop. leave Hilmore as is. 7/29/2026 4:50 PM 59 Do something to be more progressive. Not much changes here. Too many Airbnb’s way too many You’re not going to have community as it will be mostly tourists. Tighter controls over Visit LG … 7/29/2026 4:48 PM 60 Please bear in mind that although these things all sound wonderful, local govt is tasked with being good stewards of tax money & maintain reasonable taxes for residents. Thank you 7/29/2026 4:47 PM 61 The amount of tourists have pushed the locals out of being able to enjoy the city and its amenities. 7/29/2026 4:45 PM Page 140 of 169 136 / 142 62 Geneva Lake serves as the heart of our city, while our parks act as the arteries. Linking them together is critical to keeping our community vibrant and connected. 7/29/2026 3:04 PM 63 We call ourselves the Newport of the Midwest. Have you been there? It’s clean. Fresh. Painted. Grass grows (not mud). It’s like Disney. Aim higher for LG. 7/27/2026 10:24 PM 64 It is important to link the outer limits of the city to the downtown. Better pathways/sidewalks and crosswalks from the edges of town would be my priority. 7/27/2026 2:01 PM 65 Hire a professional consultant with credibility. 7/27/2026 9:07 AM 66 We need a splash pad & ice rink!!! So many communities offer these for free for residents. Need more outdoor free venues in LG! 7/26/2026 6:03 PM 67 The DNR should make the wake boats use the middle of the lake and not the shoreline. They are disturbing the lake bottom and should be fined if not following the rules. Enough is enough. We love our lake. You can’t get rid of them but a fine would help the lake, 7/26/2026 7:47 AM 68 Keep our taxes reasonable…many of these new developments are for increased tourism and unfortunately the residents of lake geneva are paying. Driving on 50 in summertime is ridiculous…..not certain what can be done about that 7/23/2026 8:21 PM 69 If the City still owns the lakefront area west of lakeshore drive at Bigfoot Beach Park, truck in enough sand to make a real beach like it used to be, say 30 feet deep 7/23/2026 12:20 PM 70 West end pier needs some improvement to dingy area and docks. 7/23/2026 10:28 AM 71 More native plantings to protect runoff from city streets 7/23/2026 7:06 AM 72 There has to be a way to reduce the number of loud cars and motorcycles as they enter LG especially on weekends. How about signage with a friendly encouraging message asking driver's/rider's for their cooperation in keeping "peace and quiet" in our beautiful town. 7/22/2026 8:46 PM 73 Do less costly "studies" and let the people have input into what is a better fit for Lake Geneva. If you want people to visit Lake Geneva, stop making it so expensive no wants to come. We may be close to the more costly Chicago area but that doesn't mean we have to jab them to have them visit. 7/22/2026 7:59 PM 74 Hillmoor planning stalled out after public input and design finished. Very disappointed. 7/22/2026 5:02 PM 75 Good progress on everything you guys are doing. Thanks for your work. 7/22/2026 2:55 PM 76 Too many boat slips and buoys block the natural beauty of the lake. 7/22/2026 2:50 PM 77 nope 7/22/2026 2:29 PM 78 Planning should prioritize and accommodate the residents of Lake Geneva and not be an attempt to bring in more tourists. Make it all more pedestrian and bike friendly. 7/22/2026 11:57 AM 79 We have a beautiful city and anything we can do to support our local community and provide activities that are accessible for more than just people who can afford it is a great thing! 7/22/2026 10:25 AM 80 There should be a budget for projects. 7/22/2026 8:12 AM 81 The traffic flow on main Street continues to be a major factor in utilizing the city. We avoid the area more and more in the 7/22/2026 7:39 AM Page 141 of 169 137 / 142 twenty years we have lived here. The focus should be on the flow of pedestrians, not motorized vehicles. Pedestrian focus would be better for the locals and even the tourists. 82 Eliminate waverunners on the lake. Keep surf boats and wakes further offshore. Ticket boats that make loud noises. 7/22/2026 6:37 AM 83 i have young kids and the outdoor areas in this city are great. my biggest concern is indoor areas for them to play and be active. typically i go to the ymca but it is closed sometimes or certain activities aren't available. thank you for this survey. 7/22/2026 5:56 AM 84 Many topics, I'm just not educated enough about to comment in a meaningful way. Like I have stated, I'm very busy. I am educated about the use of glyphosate. Stop it! Also educated about bikers. Keep them off of hiker trails! 7/22/2026 2:26 AM 85 KEEP THE CITY PARKS AVAILABLE FOR EVENTS LIKE CARNIVAL; MUSIC BY SYMPHONY AND OTHER GROUPS; ART IN THE PARK; SNOW SCULPTURE; THOSE EVENTS IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE IN THE CITY AND FILL THE HOTELS AND RESTAURANTS. WE SHOULD REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF BEER / ALCHOL EMPHASIS AT EVENTS….GET RID OF WINE WALKS… 7/21/2026 11:59 PM 86 Beautiful lake getting over crowded and weekends are CRAZY with boater who don’t know boating rules 7/21/2026 10:23 PM 87 The city should turn Hillmoor property back into a municipal golf course. It was a great golf course, it would bring in revenue to the city and would stop sitting there costing the tax payers money being an ugly overgrown field where nothing is happening. 7/21/2026 9:57 PM 88 Consideration of residents when planning comes to tourism 7/21/2026 9:07 PM 89 Downtown Lake Geneva has so much potential, the boat launch in lacking and the Riviera Building and Fountain area are old, outdated, and uninteresting. 7/21/2026 8:50 PM 90 Update parks!!! They are very little areas for kids to run and play. We need more parks. Kids need to be outdoors. There is so much science in kids playing outside. Parks go outdated, kids don’t play. 7/21/2026 7:26 PM 91 Outdoor community pool would be very welcome! 7/21/2026 7:02 PM 92 I have always thought that the park accommodations, specifically related to playgrounds, are lacking in Lake Geneva. We rarely go to any of the parks because the playgrounds are either dated (Big Foot State Park), in the middle of high traffic area (Seminary) or have been torn down (Veterans Park). The lack of Park District programs also shows that Lake Geneva definitely prioritizes tourism more than it's residents along with neighboring communities who participate in Lake Geneva through the school district and other consumerism 7/21/2026 6:31 PM 93 Need washrooms in parks! Would love to have a senior center and park dist lessons for children 7/21/2026 6:29 PM 94 Develop Hillmoor and add boat slips....especially for residents 7/21/2026 6:16 PM 95 The shore fishing is at best poor . Needs a better pier away from the constant boats . 7/21/2026 6:14 PM 96 Maintaining lake conservation is important to keep in mind when planning for the future. 7/21/2026 6:11 PM 97 Residents should not be priced out of using the town’s amenities. 7/21/2026 6:10 PM 98 Keep up the good work. Thank you 7/21/2026 6:06 PM 99 How does the spectacular property values on the lake and the massive influx in out of town money every summer lead to such an average downtown? 7/21/2026 5:56 PM Page 142 of 169 138 / 142 100 More green space, walk, bike, hike friendly, too many vehicles 7/21/2026 5:55 PM 101 Parking for L pier boaters 7/21/2026 5:49 PM 102 Do NOT develop Hillmoor! It is a treasure, a beautiful green space and forest. Once you develop it, you can't get it back! It is fine the way it is! It is also a flood plain so developing it makes no sense at all. 7/21/2026 3:03 PM 103 Listen to the full time residents 7/21/2026 12:32 PM 104 We enjoy a beautiful lakefront area and it must be well maintained and improved. 7/21/2026 12:03 PM 105 Keep the lake water clean and free of things like zebra shells and disease. We have almost 6,000 boats on the lake we don't need any more 7/21/2026 9:20 AM 106 Bring back slides and swings! My grandkids (and I) do not like these "inclusive" new playgrounds! 7/21/2026 6:40 AM 107 I wish the residents of the area were the first priority rather than the visitors. Thanks for sending out this survey. 7/20/2026 9:52 PM 108 Trail maintenance, connectivity are highly important to us. Thanks so much! 7/20/2026 9:38 PM 109 Prioritize safety. Rules. Cleanliness. Check out other water based tourist towns like cape cod ma, traverse city mi, etc. They are beautiful with more greenery than concrete 7/17/2026 6:53 PM 110 Bring back our boat trailer parking please. You cut it down to only 10 spots & one handicap spot. If not, you need to run a shuttle from the school lot back to the launch. 7/17/2026 5:42 PM 111 Parking is always challenging. As much as we need our visitors to come, we need to offer perks to locals as well. 7/17/2026 2:03 PM 112 Parks with fencing for more safety (parents of multiple littles understand the stress of monitoring an open play space), Seminary playground is hazardous. The new CenDen park is fun but very hot with no shaded seating options for summer time. The new park at veterans park feels like a joke. It is so close to the parking lot, once again with zero fencing around it and so far away from the existing sad excuse of what’s left of the playground. Should have either been totally removed or made the new structures near it. 7/16/2026 7:19 PM 113 I am a regular user of the Dunn Field pickleball courts. They are terrific and seem to get a lot of use. I would advise the city to keep close tabs on maintenance. 7/16/2026 5:35 PM 114 N/A 7/16/2026 8:04 AM 115 No. I appreciate your efforts to improve life in my home town. I graduated from Badger (‘65) and got back here as soon as I could - albeit for summers only & sometimes for the Christmas holidays. 7/15/2026 10:33 PM 116 Pool 7/15/2026 8:45 PM 117 Please keep LG beautiful. 7/15/2026 2:26 PM 118 Again, we need to do more for the locals. We need to have better parks better trails so the locals can get outside and enjoy so we can get these kids outside. Everything should not be run through the YMCA. 7/15/2026 1:12 PM 119 Parks are for the enjoyment of outdoor activities. Buildings for indoor activities belong in the cityscape. Don't give up our precious outdoor space for parking lots and buildings. Reuse before expanding concrete covered land. Thank you for the survey. 7/15/2026 11:31 AM Page 143 of 169 139 / 142 120 Buy empty spaces as was done earlier. The City can always sell the land later. I worked in Florida for many years and the school system purchased much empty land before it became homes. They sold some later when determined it wasn't necessary....the made a profit. 7/15/2026 11:22 AM 121 Lake Geneva has a straightforward opportunity to make its public parks and lakefront areas feel much more connected to the region's natural landscape. Instead of maintaining high-maintenance turf on every patch of grass, the city could easily swap out underused lawn space for native Wisconsin wildflowers like wood violets or wild columbine. It’s a highly practical move that immediately cuts down on mowing costs and fuel emissions while giving local pollinators a boost. Other simple adjustmentslike planting native dogwood shrubs or letting natural vegetation buffers grow along the shorelines to naturally prevent erosion would let the area's unique beauty speak for itself. Making these low-fuss ecological shifts is a cost effective, common-sense way to make our community spaces both look better and work better for the local environment. 7/15/2026 9:27 AM 122 The parks department does a wonderful job of keeping things clean and looking beautiful. The city needs to upgrade facilities and equipment. 7/15/2026 9:17 AM 123 We do not need anymore parks. Please sell the Hillmoor property. Our current city council is not responsible enough to run this without being a major tax burden. 7/15/2026 9:07 AM 124 Parking This survey should have been taken before the vote was taken to dismiss the trolly concept that may have helped with the parking and congestion of streets the city currently has to deal with this was a short sighted decision! 7/15/2026 8:11 AM 125 Not a fan of spending tax payer’s dollars. Extra facilities also require extra money for maintenance, etc. 7/14/2026 9:54 PM 126 bike/walking trails or lanes that take you off the road and connect parts of the downtown, Edwards Blvd. shopping and neighborhoods. The ones that do exist are few, far between and not always connected (sometimes have to cross street to connect to walkable surface) throughout the area-not to mention, in bad condition. Intersection at Edwards and Hwy 50 makes it impossible to walk to the stores on either side of Hwy. 50 or from there downtown safely. 7/14/2026 9:28 PM 127 Favor keeping us less commercialized and focus on quaintness 7/14/2026 9:00 PM 128 As I said previously, with Lake Geneva being a bird city I truly believe there could be a strong ornithology program through the community, including conservation on birds as well as their habitat. I think showcasing the natural beauty of Lake Geneva should be the focus of the parks. 7/14/2026 7:02 PM 129 Seems a shame not to do something more with hillmoor 7/14/2026 3:54 PM 130 Clean is important. The city of Lake Geneva is walkable. Think park, shuttle & walk. No need to have all these cars downtown…dangerous, noisy and dirty. 7/14/2026 3:12 PM 131 Eliminate dog swimming. No more piers in Library park. More public boat parking at Riviera dock. Move fishing pier to better location. If necessary add piers between the riviera and ,City boat launch. Eliminate boat rentals to general public 7/14/2026 2:20 PM 132 I envision hillmoor as a place with the community center and indoor and outdoor rec space. A place where families can gather, have picnics , go on hikes/bike rides, maybe even have an outdoor pool. Google Eisenhower Park in East Meadow, New York. 7/14/2026 1:32 PM 133 Our current parks that year long residents use need an upgrade. Please consider looking at parks such as Hero Park in Round Lake IL or Fox Lake has a splash pad/playground with an enclosure all around the area. It also would be great the have a space downtown or at one of the parks to have food truck events. 7/13/2026 7:10 PM 134 Bascially cater more to the local city and surrounding area people - a Community center would be a GREAT idea! 7/13/2026 5:01 PM Page 144 of 169 140 / 142 135 Survey is much too long 7/13/2026 3:24 PM 136 To the extent development on the Hillmore property can achieve the priorities of the year round and seasonal RESIDENTS I would love for that to be optimized before putting additional burden on the downtown area. However, 50 would then require improvements to walk ability and biking access- this would be incredible for the city in general connecting the retail side of town to downtown on BOTH sides of 50. There should be some transparency in the budget to understand how LAKE TAXES and other taxes on the tourist industry can help fund necessary infrastructure to keep LG a desirable place for year round residents. 7/13/2026 9:47 AM 137 Boat parking access from the lake (2 hour free parking). Maps to access city parks, bike and walking paths (print and electronic) 7/13/2026 8:22 AM 138 As I said earlier, Veterans park could be the gem of our area if we put some thought into it. There are so many opportunities for events to take place there if some investment was made. A walking path with outdoor workout equipment, an amphitheater, better baseball fields and facilities, better soccer fields. We should be an example for others to follow. It’s kind of an embarrassment we live in this famous town and our parks are sub par. 7/12/2026 1:42 PM 139 Focus must stay on residents. We should specifically address the needs of children and young families. What really adds to our quality of life. Don't destroy our view of lake filling it up with hundreds of boats in a large marina. It is the beautiful view of the lake that made Lake Geneva what is today. It is for everyone to enjoy. We do NOT need more boat access on a lake that already crowded. 7/9/2026 3:24 PM 140 Extreme need for parking garage or lot. Boaters should be given a parking pass with their boat fee. We pay for a buoy or slip & then have to pay for parking. Measly 3 hrs not enough. The street parking is gone by 9 a.m. Lake fromt parking and street parking should be flat fee. Street parking should be paid parking. Kiosks on all streets adjacent to lake front. 7/8/2026 5:13 PM 141 Hillmoor property needs to be addressed with a redesign of everything. We are not wanting it done half way. We would like to see it done fully and intentionally. They have really lacked on this property for years and it shows 7/7/2026 8:36 PM 142 Put back a bathroom at the big foot state park that was tore down many years ago. 7/6/2026 6:20 PM 143 Add slips 7/5/2026 7:22 PM 144 The community would benefit greatly by the restoration of the Historic Hillmoor golf course -golf is as popular now as it ever has been - the beautiful entrance way to our city could once again be what greets visitors -also a revenue source and a course for our high school golf team to call home -why is this not being put on the planning exploration - a nine hole course on section 3 and 4 7/3/2026 11:42 AM 145 Create bike trails in Hillmoor with connections to other trails 7/3/2026 11:17 AM 146 Nothing is being done with residents - taxpayers - in mind. All for tourists. Its is feast or famine with crowds. Light pollution, the degraded quality of the lake are ignored by officials. 7/3/2026 7:48 AM 147 I am a very active, outdoorsy individual. I have lived in a lot of communities. Our existing parks, playgrounds, trails & things that I would consider basics in these areas are sub-par. It’s really a disappointment. Please start focusing on your residents vs putting all your efforts into making the lake front look nice for tourists. All you need to do is look to some neighboring communities. “The Lake Geneva” way (which is what I’ve so sickeningly heard from people who have lived here for generations), is not a point of pride. It’s an embarrassment. Please… fix things that we have before attempting to take on something new. Show us that you can adequately manage & improve your existing amenities & infrastructure. 7/2/2026 6:22 PM 148 Very disappointed taking away tennis courts at the elementary school, and also not having a volleyball court anywhere. 7/2/2026 5:14 PM Page 145 of 169 141 / 142 149 I would recommend replacing Gage marine as the Riviera Pier contractor and give it to someone who will do the work on time and take it seriously. 7/2/2026 4:53 PM 150 Outdoor community pool! 7/2/2026 4:24 PM 151 Add biking and hiking trails. Make bike lanes for road bikes any time a road is redone. Have bathrooms open 24 hours per day with a pass code for residents from 11pm to 5am Put a gate on the west boat slip pier to prevent theft and fishing off that pier MORE BIKE LANES AND PATHS 7/2/2026 3:03 PM 152 Development of any part of hillmoor beyond a nature reserve and nature playground and exploration space is not something I would ever support. There is already spaces like the Klockit land that stands essentially abandoned and a waste of space while we loose the one feature we can't get back - natural wildlife preserve areas. There's enough development, it's time to invest in conservation and protect what Wisconsin is known for and the real beauty behind the Lake Geneva area as a whole 7/2/2026 12:19 PM 153 Lakefront: we keep hearing the residents & some committee members say they "don't want our view of the of the lake blocked" at Library park if a new large pier was added. However, we know each of these people who say this and they do NOT go down to Library park to sit, they're not being truthful and should not have a say over the boaters who have been waiting for SO long to have a slip on our lakefront. Listen to the resident boaters; we live here for boating on the lake, we pay taxes too and are denied the space to put our boat on. This issue has gone on for way too many Decades & we pray someone will please listen to us. Thank you! 7/2/2026 12:05 PM 154 I BELIEVE OUR PARKS PROGRAM IS HEADING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION TO PROVIDE A WIDE RANGE OF USES FOR A WIDE RANGE OF RESIDENTS AND VISITORS. 7/2/2026 10:37 AM 155 Cheaper parking. Milwaukee, Madison and Chicago all have cheaper parking. The stuff won’t get used if parking is expensive. Parents avoid the library in the summer because of parking. The city focuses too much on tourism and not enough on local families. Families are traveling to Elkhorn, Fox Lake, Burlington for sports, pools, splash pads, beaches, rental facilities because LG doesn’t have it 7/2/2026 9:11 AM 156 Continue to partner with the YMCA. Fix the condition of your city bike paths please 7/2/2026 9:02 AM 157 Glad we finally have a separate Parks Department, so funding, quality maintenance, and expansion can be achieved and not neglected. Remember to keep the Cemetery under the Parks Department (see history of early cemeteries). 7/2/2026 8:53 AM 158 Dog friendly areas and dog bowl filling stations shouldn’t be overlooked! 7/2/2026 8:46 AM 159 There’s SO much opportunity! Parks should be a priority, easily and inexpensive accessible to ALL - locals and tourists, all abilities and economic levels. We have lots of existing facilities that can be reimagined, used for more and improved. This city is vibrant with life - all year round - but we need easy ways to enjoy our town and our beautiful lake - with affordable programming, parking or easy bike/walk accessibility. 7/2/2026 8:23 AM 160 Stay out of business. Concentrate of the governance of the City. 7/2/2026 6:23 AM 161 Thanks for providing this survey 7/1/2026 11:14 PM 162 My only complaint is boat rentals to people who don't know how to write boats. I'm not against reptiles.

It would take the boaters off of the docks quicker, both going in and coming off of the lake. 7/1/2026 6:00 PM 166 My husband is 72 years old. As full-time residence we have a buoy. The unavailability of docs/piers available for full-time residence is a hardship for us.

Purpose This procedure governs how agenda memos move from initial drafting through committee recommendation and final Council approval. It applies to all agenda memos submitted by City staff or a designated contractor. 2. Overview: Two Phases The workflow runs in two phases: Phase 1 — Committee Level. Department Head submission to City Attorney (purpose dependent), and City Administrator review, and ends with the item going through the required committee(s). Phase 2 — Council Level. Begins once committee review is complete. The Department Head submits a truncated form incorporating any changes, which goes through City Attorney (purpose dependent) and City Administrator review before the item is finalized for the Council agenda. Select the Appropriate Meeting Level for Your Item Committee Committee Board of Park Commissioners Brief Subject Title Easement for Alliant Energy Agenda Item Wording Discussion/Recommendation regarding Easement for Alliant Energy in the Conservation Area Near Symphony Bay Submitted By David Winger Submitter Email Address parksdirector@cityoflakegeneva.gov Purpose of Committee Request Contract Review/Approval Background / Request On 7/31 a representative from TRC Companies who is working with Alliant Energy on this project reached out to ask for additional right-of-way (ROW) in the conservation area parkland that was recently dedicated to the City. Attached to this memo are Exhibit A and Exhibit B depicting where exactly the easement and work would be. This was taken to the Park Board on 8/18 but the group felt there was insufficient information given for them to make an adequate decision. The reason as to why Alliant can't use the current ROW and why the offer of $1.00 was given are the chief reasons why the group viewed the information as insufficient. The Parks Director has been in contact and received this response explaining why they need the additional ROW: "We are aware of other buried utilities in that particular stretch of the ROW along Townline Road - there are telecommunications, gas, and water utilities. I don't recall if there was any sanitary sewer marked the last time, I was in the field, but there could be. This ROW is becoming crowded as each utility requires specific offsets and clearance from neighboring utilities. The line that Alliant intends to install here is a new feed out of the South Lake Geneva substation, located on Edwards between Townline and Bloomfield. This new feed will allow for additional development west of Edwards and provides a Page 1/5 Page 149 of 169 crucial connection for the neighborhood of Symphony Bay which currently has only one main feed. It is common practice for electric utilities to seek an easement for 'trunk line' facilities such as this because they provide the backbone of the distribution architecture in that area. By having these new facilities located in a property with an executed easement, the relocation costs of these facilities, due to a road widening project, are reimbursable. This is an important consideration when planning new infrastructure. The construction of this new line will be facilitated by HDD (horizontal direction drilling) so there will be a greatly reduced impact to the property as opposed to trenching for a new line. The new conductor is installed at a nominal depth of 36" and the conductor is housed in 6" HDPE conduit. No above ground facilities are planned on the city's property here as the new line will be terminated at a new switchgear facility just east of Sonata Way. I hope that this narrative gives you a clear understanding of the scope of this work and answers all your questions. If you still have any concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me." Specifics as to how crowded the current ROW is or how the determination of a purchase offer for $1.00 has not yet been answered. Does Item Have a Fiscal/Budget Impact? Yes Estimated Cost $1.00 Funding Source N/A GL Number N/A Budget Status N/A Budget Request Detail Was deemed insufficient by the Park Board. Does Item Have Ordinance or Policy Implications or Changes? N/A Possible Motion Motion to continue item until questions asked have been answered. Timeline i.

Consideration should be given to the fact that it may not be in the City's best interest to grant this easement for the sole purpose of allowing the utility the ability to recover costs, which the City would have to pay, if there is ever future road or utility work in the area. If the desire is not to consider the request then that should be the recommendation to the Council.

Does Item Have a Fiscal/Budget Impact? Yes Estimated Cost $2,500,000.00 Funding Source Parks Capital GL Number 43-52-00-53000 Budget Status N/A Budget Request Detail The amount for each project is based on past CORPs. We will be getting updated numbers from the consultants by mid-September. The attached priority ranking is primarily based on community feedback from current and past plans Page 1/4 Page 159 of 169 and has phasing built in as we won't be able to do all of the necessary projects at once. During the meeting we are going to have pointed discussion on which projects should fall in which year as the survey has identified differences among respondents. Nothing new has been added to this list yet as we are working off previous plans before we add new items. Does Item Have Ordinance or Policy Implications or Changes?

Rankings are still being confirmed with committee members. Cost estimates are drawn from the 2021–26 CIP planning cycle and have not been re-priced. How the scores work • Rank position is converted to points (1st = most points) and summed across everyone who ranked that item. • Individual Ranks shows exactly what each respondent submitted. Confidence signal (n) n ≥ 4 — strong signal n = 2–3 — moderate signal n = 1 — single-vote, low confidence Cost estimate key • $XX,XXX — direct match to a CIP line item • $XX,XXX* — probable match (terminology differs; confirm) • Bucketed† — shares a lump-sum budget line with other items • No estimate — no matching CIP line item found Cost context: published construction cost indices (AGC, Turner, Rider Levett Bucknall) show nonresidential construction costs have risen roughly 20–30%+ since 2021, driven by a sharp 2021–22 spike plus steady ~4–5%/yr increases since. Figures in this deck are not adjusted for that. Page 163 of 169 2027 High-Priority Rankings Ranked highest to lowest weighted score.
