DISCUSSION AND/OR POSSIBLE ACTION ON THE FOLLOWING ITEMS:
AGENDA ITEM # 12 – PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT AT 41 PARK RIDGE DRIVE – President Menzel
reported on the Zoning Committee meeting held June 9, 2025. The Committee voted to take a neutral
stance on the matter and recommended the Village Board consider proposing an amendment to
Ordinance 17.04 to allow multi-family dwelling. Motion Thompson, second Renfert to amend Ordinance
17.04 Sect. II (2)(A) Use Regulations to delete item “iv. Multiple family dwelling” so that we can hold a
public hearing to formally amend the Ordinance. Roll call was taken: Holloway – yes; Thompson – yes;
Renfert – yes; Paulson -yes; Menzel – yes. Motion carried.
AGENDA ITEM # 8A – REVIEW AND APPROVE SPECTRUM ERRORS AND OMISSIONS
INSURANCE PROPOSAL – President Menzel and clerk Arndt summarized the proposal. A Public
Official Bond generally only protects the municipality from dishonest acts of one or a few individuals
depending on who or what position is actually listed on the bond. A Commercial Crime policy with
“Faithful Performance of Duty” expands beyond to cover all village employees. Further, in addition to
Employee Dishonesty, the League Mutual Crime Policy will extend the limit of insurance selected to the
following: Employee Dishonesty; Loss of Monies and Securities (inside and outside of premises);
Counterfeit Money Orders and Paper Currency; Depositors Forgery or Alteration Fraud; Computer and
Funds Transfer Fraud. The commercial crime policy has a broader coverage form than a schedule bond,
typically at a lower price. The Village’s current requirement for a Treasurer’s Bond would then be
eliminated. Paulson and Renfert noted that the policy seems to have a lot of exclusions.
AGENDA ITEM #8B - REVIEW AND APPROVE RESOLUTION 003-2025R ADOPTING ORDINANCE
3.05 ELIMINATING DUPLICATE TREASURER BOND – Wisconsin Statute 70.67(1) states municipal
treasurers shall execute and deliver a bond to the county treasurer. Statute 70.67(2) states the treasurer
shall not be required to give such bond if the governing body shall by ordinance obligate such
municipality to pay, in case the treasurer fails do to so, all taxes of any kind required by law to be paid to
the county treasurer. Motion by Paulson, second by Holloway to sign up for the Spectrum crime
insurance policy, approve Resolution 003-2025R “Waiving the Requirement for Treasurer Bond” by
passing Ordinance 3.05 “Duplicate Treasurer’s Bond Eliminated”. Motion carried. The Clerk will provid e a
copy of Ordinance 3.05 to the Portage County Treasurer. It was agreed that the Village will review the
policy language in the coming months to ensure the policy covers what we need.
AGENDA ITEM # 9– REVIEW AND APPROVE TOBACCO LICENSE APPLICATION FOR TAPS AND
TACKLE – Clerk Arndt explained the recent history regarding the liquor license for Taps and Tackle.
Motion by Paulson, second Thompson to approve a tobacco license for Tackle Stop LLC, dba Taps and
Tackle, effective July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2026. Motion carried.
AGENDA ITEM # 10 – PROPOSED “20 IS PLENTY” SPEED LIMIT – Amending Ordinance 17.04 was
discussed to change most of the Village streets to 20 mph speed limit. Renfert asked about the cost of
signage on fifteen Village streets. Menzel said we will need to assess how many signs we would need.
The board agreed the Village needs to check with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation, the
Portage County Highway Commissioner and Sheriff’s Department for any regulations or concerns about
the change. Paulson and Holloway suggested that the signs might include “no trucks” and also a $200
fine warning on them. If there is resistance from the agencies, Thompson suggested as an alternative
that we keep the 25 mph “official” speed limit, but place signs that say “20 mph Is Plenty”.
AGENDA ITEM # 11 – BUILDING INSPECTION SERVICES – The current Village Building Inspector, Jim
Zepp will retire at the end of June. President Menzel reported the Village has published a Request for
Proposals for building inspector services, and said he was told by Zepp and Mike Bembenek (County
inspector) that it will be very difficult to find a capable replacement due a dwindling supply of qualified
inspectors. If we can’t find a replacement, the inspections would defer to the State for larger projects.
AGENDA ITEM #13 – REVIEW AND APPROVE RESOLUTION 004-2025R WI DNR COMPLIANCE
MAINTENANCE ANNUAL REPORT – this agenda item will be reviewed at the July 21
st meeting.
SET DATE AND TIME FOR NEXT BOARD MEETING – Monday, July 21, at 5:30 p.m.
ADJOURN MEETING at 6:52 p.m.

VILLAGE OF PARK RIDGE
ZONING COMMITTEE MEETING MINUTES
JUNE 9, 2025
************************************************************************************
MEETING CALLED TO ORDER by Village President Steve Menzel at 5:30 p.m., in
the absence of a committee chair (former chair Thom Patton resigned in January). The
meeting was held in person at the Village Hall. Attending the meeting were Zoning
Committee voting members, Rebecca Woodward (alternate), Heidi Chitwood,
Christine Neidlein, Tom McCarten and Steve Menzel (non-voting member). Also
attending was J.D. Manville, Village Zoning Administrator.
DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION on proposal to develop the property at 41 Park
Ridge Drive (formerly ODC/WIAA building). Menzel and Manville initiated the discussion by
providing an overview of the concept presented at the Village Board meeting on May 19 by
Disher Properties (Jeff Disher) and his realtor, to redevelop and convert the former ODC
building to studio apartments. Disher Properties has extended an offer to purchase the
property for the proposed development, pending the Village’s granting of a use variance or
amendment of Village Ordinance. The Village Board then referred the matter to the Zoning
Committee for discussion and recommendations.
Menzel reminded the Committee that its role is strictly advisory to the Village Board. He briefly
reviewed the meeting packet materials, noting that he had a conversation with Lynn
Markham, a UW Extension zoning expert at UW-Stevens Point, to explore what options the
Village has in considering the proposal. Based on Markham’s advice, Menzel said that
requiring the developer to apply for a “use variance” would be one way to proceed, but noted
that Markham said a variance ruling is discouraged because it puts the decision in the hands
of only a few residents (Zoning Board of Appeals) with little public input, and it is unlikely that
the applicant would be able to meet the “unnecessary hardship” requirement to justify the
variance. He suggested the Committee essentially has 3 options for its recommendation to
the Board: 1) recommend the Board adopt no zoning changes and deny the project; 2)
express a neutral stance from the Committee and recommend that the Board consider
proposing an amendment to Ordinance 17.17, Sect. 2, A, to allow multi-family dwellings in the
Business District zone, through a formal Resolution and a public hearing; 3) fully endorse the
project and recommend that the Board amend Ordinance 17.17, Sect. 2, A, to allow multi-
family dwellings in the Business District zone, through a formal Resolution and a public
hearing.
Manville and McCarten reminded the group that the property has for many years been owned
by non-profit, tax-exempt organizations (WIAA and ODC), and therefore has not contributed
to the Village tax base. Manville said the Village has little room for future growth of its tax
base and should consider the proposed development because it would encourage
investment, return the parcel to the tax rolls and help contribute to the growing need for
housing.
Concerns expressed by the group focused mainly on the potential threat to the Village’s
longstanding reputation as a neighborhood of single family dwellings. The Village currently
has no multi-family units. Even the twin homes in the Planned Unit Development (Odessa and
Angelo Courts) require each building to be owner-occupied. Other concerns expressed by the
Committee include the impact the development might have on adjacent neighbors (noise,
traffic, parking, etc.). Manville noted that the current building has very specialized office
spaces and is not very salable, which is why it has been on the market for 3 years. Some
expressed concern that the building might remain mostly unoccupied, deserted or even
neglected for years to come.
After some discussion, the Committee decided unanimously to pursue option #2 above:
express a neutral stance from the Committee and recommend that the Board consider
proposing an amendment to Ordinance 17.17, Sect. 2, A, to allow multi-family dwellings in the
Business District zone, through a formal Resolution and a public hearing.

RE: Hillcrest Drive – Pinecrest Avenue to Sunrise Avenue
Greenbriar Avenue – Hillcrest Drive to Park Ridge Drive (STH 66)
Village of Park Ridge
Dear Property Owner/Tenant:
The Village of Park Ridge has awarded the contract for the above projects
to prime contractor A-1 Excavating LLC. of Bloomer WI. The project
consists of new water main and water laterals from the main to the property
line, street reconstruction, asphalt paving, concrete/asphalt driveway
aprons. Tree removals within the public right-of-way will also be completed
as part of the project.
The contractor anticipates starting the week of July 28, 2025, by moving in
equipment and materials. The first task the contractor will complete is the
removal of trees and shrubs within the right of way. Water main installation
will begin on Greenbriar at STH 66 and proceed southerly to Hillcrest Drive.
Next, water main installation will take place on Hillcrest Drive. Water lateral
installation will start in late August, with street grading and paving to follow.
Substantial completion is anticipated by the end of October.
Emergency access will be maintained throughout the project, but general
street and driveway access will be intermittent. Specifically, during
underground utility construction, street grading and paving, driveway
access will not be available. Typically, 24-hour advanced notice will be
provided. Residents can park on adjacent streets during these times. You
may also want to move and/or store boats and trailers at an alternate
location.
If you have plantings or landscaping in the street right-of-way, such as
decorative rock, post and rail fencing, shrubbery, small trees, retaining
walls, brick pavers sprinkler heads, etc., that could be damaged by
construction please plan to remove any items you wish to salvage. MSA
personnel have marked the trees slated for removal during the week of July
7th.
If you have been considering connecting your home to the municipal water
system, now is a good time to schedule that with your plumber.
Construction staking will begin during the week of July 21, 2025. Stakes
will likely be located in your front or side yard, so they are not disturbed by

construction. Please try not to disturb the stakes as they are important for
accurate project layout.
Existing mailboxes will be removed during the project and temporary
mailboxes will be set up. Mailboxes will be reset in their original location by
the contractor prior to the end of construction.
Expect garbage/recycling to remain unchanged. However, it may be
necessary for the contractor to move your receptacles to another pick-up
point. It is recommended you write your address on your bins and
containers, so you get your containers back (i.e., label with duct tape).
The contractor is required to coordinate with the school district on bus
routing and student pick up if construction will impact the schedule. Please
let MSA or A-1 Excavating know if this will be an issue for you.
The Village of Park Ridge has contracted with MSA Professional Services,
Inc. (MSA) for the construction engineering and onsite inspection services
for the project. MSA’s onsite representative is Logan Pickruhn and he can
be reached at 715-571-7644 (c) or lpickruhn@msa-ps.com and will be
onsite for the duration of construction activities. Tom Turchi, MSA’s Project
Manager, can be reached at 715-304-0462 or tturchi@msa-ps.com.
The project may require work on your property to match driveways and
restore disturbed areas. The enclosed permission form grants the Village
of Park Ridge, its contractors and subcontractors, permission to enter onto
your land for this purpose. You can either complete this form and return it
to Village Clerk Anne Arndt at the Village Hall or give it to Logan with MSA,
when you see him on site.
The primary contact for contractor A-1 Excavating, LLC., is Joe Swan,
Superintendent at (715) 520-2291. A secondary contact is Jake Wald,
Project Manager at (715) 431-0063.
Please feel free to discuss problems or questions of any kind with Logan as
he will be onsite most days.
We appreciate your cooperation and patience throughout this project and
look forward to its successful completion.

PFAS Contaminants with a Recommended Health Advisory Level
Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a large group of human-made chemicals that have been used in industry
and consumer products worldwide since the 1950. The following table list PFAS contaminants which were detected in your water and
that have a Recommended Public Health Groundwater Standard (RPHGS) or Health Advisory Level (HAL). There are no violations
for detections of contaminants that exceed the RPHGS or HAL. The RPHGS are levels at which concentrations of the contaminant
present a health risk and are based on guidance provided by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services.
Note: The recommended health-based levels in the table below were in effect in 2024. These levels were revised by WDHS in 2025.
They can be found here https://www.dhs.wisconsin.gov/water/gws.htm.
Contaminants with a Public Health Groundwater Standard, Health Advisory Level, or a Secondary Maximum
Contaminant Level
The following table lists contaminants which were detected in your water and that have either a Public Health Groundwater Standard
(PHGS), Health Advisory Level (HAL), or a Secondary Maximum Contaminant Level (SMCL), or both. There are no violations
for detections of contaminants that exceed Health Advisory Levels, Public Health Groundwater Standards or Secondary Maximum
Contaminant Levels. Secondary Maximum Contaminant Levels are levels that do not present health concerns but may pose aesthetic
problems such as objectionable taste, odor, or color. Public Health Groundwater Standards and Health Advisory Levels are levels at
which concentrations of the contaminant present a health risk.

Unregulated contaminants are those for which EPA has not established drinking water standards. The purpose of unregulated
contaminant monitoring is to assist EPA in determining the occurrence of unregulated contaminants in drinking water and whether
future regulation is warranted. EPA required us to participate in this monitoring.
Within the last 12 months we conducted Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring in accordance with US EPA rules. There were no
detections found during UCMR 5 sampling. We are required to inform you of this sampling. We are only required to include results
showing detections within this report; however, if you would like a copy of all results, please contact us at (715) 345-5260.
Health effects for any contaminant with MCL violations/Action Level Exceedances/SMCL exceedances/PHG or
HAL exceedances
Contaminant: Manganese
Health Effects: Drinking water with high levels of manganese may harm the nervous system. Infants and older people may be
especially sensitive these effects. People over the age of 50 should stop using the water for drinking, preparing
beverages and foods that use gelatin and\or pudding food products. The water should also not be given to infants
or used in infant formula. Waters containing high levels of manganese may also be objectionable for taste, odor,
or color.
Additional Health Information
Nitrate in drinking water at levels above 10 ppm is a health risk for infants of less than 6 months of age. High nitrate levels in
drinking water can cause blue baby syndrome. Nitrate levels may rise quickly for short periods of time because of rainfall or
agricultural activity. If you are caring for an infant you should ask advice from your health care provider. Females who are or may
become pregnant should not consume water with nitrate concentrations that exceed 10 ppm. There is some evidence of an association
between exposure to high nitrate levels in drinking water during the first weeks of pregnancy and certain birth defects. The Wisconsin
Department of Health Services recommends people of all ages avoid long-term consumption of water that has nitrate level greater
than 10 milligrams per liter (mg/L).
Lead can cause serious health effects in people of all ages, especially pregnant people, infants (both formula-fed and breastfed), and
young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and parts used in service lines and in home plumbing. Stevens Point
Waterworks is responsible for providing high quality drinking water and removing lead pipes but cannot control the variety of materials
used in the plumbing in your home. Because lead levels may vary over time, lead exposure is possible even when your tap sampling
results do not detect lead at one point in time. You can help protect yourself and your family by identifying and removing lead
materials within your home plumbing and taking steps to reduce your family’s risk. Using a filter, certified by an American National
Standards Institute accredited certifier to reduce lead, is effective in reducing lead exposures. Follow the instructions provided with the
filter to ensure the filter is used properly. Use only cold water for drinking, cooking, and making baby formula. Boiling water does not
remove lead from water. Before using tap water for drinking, cooking, or making baby formula, flush your pipes for several minutes.
You can do this by running your tap, taking a shower, doing laundry or a load of dishes. If you have a lead service line or galvanized
requiring replacement service line, you may need to flush your pipes for a longer period. If you are concerned about lead in your water
and wish to have your water tested, contact Stevens Point Waterworks (Joel Lemke at (715) 345-5260). Information on lead in drinking
water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available at https://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.

Action Level: The concentration of a contaminant which,
if exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements
which a water system must follow.
HA: Health Advisory. An estimate of acceptable drinking
water levels for a chemical substance based on health
effects information. HAL: Health Advisory Level is a
concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded,
poses a health risk and may require a system to post
a public notice. Health Advisories are determined by
US EPA.
HI: Hazard Index: A Hazard Index is used to assess
the potential health impacts associated with mixtures
of contaminants. Hazard Index guidance for a class
of contaminants or mixture of contaminants may be
determined by the US EPA or Wisconsin Department
of Health Services. If a Health Index is exceeded a
system may be required to post a public notice.
A Level 1 assessment is a study of the water system to
identify potential problems and determine, if possible,
why total coliform bacteria have been found in our
water system.
A Level 2 assessment is a very detailed study of the
water system to identify potential problems and determine,
if possible, why an E. coli MCL violation has occurred or
why total coliform bacteria have been found in our water
system, or both, on multiple occasions.
Maximum Contaminant Level: The highest level of
a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs
are set as close to the MCLGs as feasible using the
best available treatment technology.
Maximum Contaminant Level Goal: The level of a
contaminant in drinking water below which there is
noknown or expected risk to health. MCLGs allow
for a margin of safety.
million fibers per liter
Maximum residual disinfectant level: The highest level
of a disinfectant allowed in drinking water. There is
convincing evidence that addition of a disinfectant is
necessary for control of microbial contaminants.
Maximum residual disinfectant level goal: The level of
a drinking water disinfectant below which there is no
known or expected risk to health. MRDLGs do not
reflect the benefits of the use of disinfectants to
control microbial contaminants.

Additional Information on Service Line Materials
We are required to develop an initial inventory of service lines connected to our distribution system by October 16, 2024 and to make
the inventory publicly accessible. You can access the service line inventory here/by: StevensPoint.com/water and click on “water
service laterals”
Exposure to lead in drinking water can cause serious health effects in all age groups. Infants and children can have decreases in IQ and
attention span. Lead exposure can lead to new learning and behavior problems or exacerbate existing learning and behavior problems.
The children of women who are exposed to lead before or during pregnancy can have increased risk of these adverse health effects.
Adults can have increased risks of heart disease, high blood pressure, kidney or nervous system problems.
Copper is an essential nutrient, but some people who drink water containing copper in excess of the action level over a relatively short
amount of time could experience gastrointestinal distress. Some people who drink water containing copper in excess of the action level
over many years could suffer liver or kidney damage. People with Wilsons Disease should consult their personal doctor.
- Health Information –
Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some
contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk. More
information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the Environmental Protection
Agency’s safe drinking water hotline (800-426-4791).
Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-
compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ
transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune systems disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at
risk from infections. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. EPA/CDC
guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are
available from the Environmental Protection Agency’s safe drinking water hotline (800-426-4791).
- Educational Information –
The sources of drinking water, both tap water and bottled water, include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs
and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals
and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from
human activity.
Contaminants that may be present in source water include:
• Microbial contaminants, such as viruses and bacteria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic
systems, agricultural livestock operations and wildlife.
• Inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals, which can be naturally- occurring or result from urban
stormwater runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining or farming.
• Pesticides and herbicides, which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban stormwater
runoff and residential uses.
• Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are by-products
of industrial processes and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban stormwater
runoff and septic systems.
• Radioactive contaminants, which can be naturally occurring or be the result of oil and gas production and
mining activities.
In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, EPA prescribes regulations that limit the amount of certain contaminants
in water provided by public water systems. FDA regulations establish limits for contaminants in bottled water, which shall
provide the same protection for public health.
