Summary
Church Placards
Issued
Accountability
Status Notes
Lake Geneva United
Methodist 20 Mostly accounted
for One placard not returned by visitor
Holy Communion
Episcopal 45 Partially
accounted for
6 placards not returned by visitors (follow up
required) One placard lost and reissued to
congregant.
First Church of Christ,
Scientist 10 Accounted for Five assigned, remainder retained by church
First Congregational
UCC 15 Fully accounted
for All maintained by church
Findings
Documentation is as follows for review. All participating organizations have fully complied with the City's
accountability request. The review identified concerns regarding lost or unreturned placards.
A request to permit duplicated visitor placards was submitted and denied as it would significantly reduce
the City's ability to maintain accountability and would be inconsistent with the existing program
guidelines. The City's current policy expressly prohibits duplication of placards, as they are controlled
City-issued parking authorizations intended to be individually tracked and accounted for. Furthermore, the
operational hardship described has not been demonstrated by the other participating congregations, all of
which continue to administer visitor placards without requesting duplication.
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommend continuing the existing Sunday Morning Parking Placard Program without modification to
the duplication policy. Placards should remain individually issued, tracked, and accounted for in
accordance with the established program guidelines.
Staff further recommend that participating organizations begin to report any lost, stolen, or unreturned
placards promptly and that annual accountability reviews remain part of the program to ensure the
integrity of City-issued parking placards.

To: Lake Geneva United Methodist Church, Holy Communion Episcopal Church, First Church of Christ

From: City Hall, City of Lake Geneva
Date: April 15, 2025
Subject: Sunday Morning Parking Program – Rules for Use of Placards
Placard Distribution: Each congregation will receive a set number of placards. Any additional placards
must be requested from and approved by the Common Council. Placards will be issued in 2-year
increments. Lake Geneva United Methodist Church - 20 placards
Holy Communion Episcopal Church - 45 placards
First Church of Christ, Scientist - 10 placards
First Congregational United Church of Christ - 15 placards
Permit Valid on Sunday: Each placard will provide parking from 9am to 12pm on Sunday.
Placard Eligibility: Placards will not be issued to vehicles with City of Lake Geneva Parking Permit
Stickers.
Placard Use: Parking is limited to within a one block radius of location of the listed church. If a resident
parking sticker is displayed with the placard, the resident permit will take precedence, and the vehicle will
be chalked. The use of the placard will be noted, and the organization program manager will be contacted.
Accountability: Placards are a controlled item. Organizations will be required to maintain accountability
for each placard issued. Each organization should be prepared to provide accountability and justification
for issue upon request from Lake Geneva City Hall Staff
Duplication Policy: Any discovery of duplicated placards may result in the revocation of placards for the
individual member.
Placard Return: Placards must be returned before December 15 of the expiration year. Failure to return all
placards may result in a reduction of placards for the following issue.

As part of the City of Lake Geneva’s Parking Placard Program, we are requesting an updated accountability
report for the placards issued to your organization through the City’s program. This request applies to all
placards issued, including those provided for Sunday services and to the Food Pantry.
As outlined in the program guidelines provided at the time of issuance, placards are considered a
controlled item. Participating organizations are responsible for maintaining accountability of each placard

Per our conversation earlier, First Congregational United Church of Christ on 715 Wisconsin St.
had been issued 15 parking placards for Sunday morning parking only.
At this time, we have all 15 placards in our possession. None have been assigned, and we issue
when needed on a Sunday basis. The Food Pantry is not in need of these placards, since they do not
operate
on Sundays.
Much Thanks,

Memo to City of Lake Geneva
To: Tom Earle – Public Works Director Date: July 14, 2026
From: Naomi Rauch, P.E.
262-758-6032
CC: Dave DeAngelis – City Administrator
Dan Draper – City Attorney
Subject: Stoneridge Phase 2B (Stonemill Circle) – Roadway Acceptance Recommended
The public roadway has been completed in Stoneridge Phase 2B Stonemill Circle. General grading, placement of
storm sewer, placement of curb & gutter, and placement of binder course (lower layer) and the surface course
(final, upper layer) of asphalt, within the City Right of Way, have been completed. Public utilities within the right-
of-way and initial paving were installed in 2020; however, concerns with final lift of pavement delayed acceptance.
In August of 2025, the required pavement fix was completed by Shodeen. A final walk-through site inspection
occurred on June 26th 2026 verifying the pavement fix remained acceptable. Sidewalk is installed on a lot by lot
basis. The remaining letter of credit for Phase 2B totals $16,000 for unfinished sidewalk and ramps. The letter of
credit will be released when work is verified as completed.
If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me!

Administrator DeAngelis:
As a 55 and older community, The Wrightwood Condominiums of Lake Geneva at 415 S
Wells Street enjoy easy access to downtown. Daily, our thirty four owners and their guests
make their way along the sidewalks to the lakefront, shops, restaurants, and local events.
The brisk Wells Street traffic occasionally leaves us seniors feeling vulnerable.
Please consider this a request to change the crossing signage at Wells and Baker to an on
demand flasher like the one on Main St near the Bottle Shop. Wells Street traffic can be
quick. The current static crossing signs are not adequate, and few drivers observe
the State requirement to yield. There had been an illuminated warning sign there
previously. Adding an on demand flasher would mitigate the potential of a tragic
accident, without affecting traffic flow. Furthermore, this crossing is a school bus stop,
and we are concerned about the additional Wells Street traffic about to be generated by
Route 50 closures.
Please let us know how we might further this request.
The Wrightwood Board of Directors endorses this installation on behalf of our owners.
Thank you for your attention to this matter,
Charles Saul
Association President
