COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE
SEPTEMBER 3, 2026 MEETING MINUTES
President Jeanne Bellile called the meeting to order at 5:00 p.m. in the Community Center at
531 N. Nash St., Hortonville, Wisconsin.
Trustees present: Therese Abitz, Dalton Davis, Carrie Lathrop, Jim Moeller arrived at 5:50, Jane
Olk arrived at 5:05, Julie Arendt Vanden Heuvel
Trustees excused:
Officials/Staff present: Administrator Nathan Treadwell, Deputy Clerk-Treasurer Lauren
Prochnow, Library Director Alexandrea Krause
Discussion on Downtown Amenities and Maintenance Plan
Administrator Treadwell – the things we need to know – is there anything in particular you would
want with the hanging baskets and planters? The timeline in purchasing that – we weren’t
purchasing baskets or planters until winter. Ideally, we have time to look at what we would want.
Planters would be removed for winter.
Trustee Arendt Vanden Heuvel – the planters in New London are amazing with their plants.
Maybe we inquire because they have a vessel of water that remains in there.
Administrator Treadwell – we can do that too. An ATV/UTV with something on the back to water
them would be more beneficial. Parking on the road could get tricky because we’re relying on
the parking space to be open.
Trustee Arendt Vanden Heuvel asked, “Is there going to be a spicket out downtown to get
hosed down by memorial square? Looking to save on water capacity”?
Discussion ensued.
Trustee Arendt Vanden Heuvel – I want to make sure we’re set in case we need to budget for
these items. So if we’re buying the planters/hanging baskets, I want to make sure we’re meeting
the expectations. The utv would be multi-purpose. I want to have stuff we can maintain but also
don’t want artificial plants either.
Concerns regarding Alonzo splashpad were addressed.
Discussion on Holiday Decorations and Banners
Administrator Treadwell addressed the Board: We do have money in our CIP for holiday lights.
I think it’s hard for you all to imagine what it would look like. I asked if there was anything that
was polar bear related. Looking for something that would attach to poles. We are probably
towards the end of ordering lights for the year.
Question posed: What are we doing in memorial square? Probably a tree and lights we can
wrap around the pole.
Before we sell the flagpole, can we use that for the downtown. Seasonally, banners would be
nice to have. Once the lights are up, we would be able to present more options so you could
visually see it.
Adjourn
Motion [Davis, Olk] to adjourn. Unanimous voice vote, motion carried. The Committee adjourned

Consent Agenda
Motion [Arendt Vanden Heuvel, Olk] to approve as outlined with changes. Roll call vote, 7 ayes,
0 nays, motion carried.
A. August 20, 2026, Regular Board meeting minutes – Trustee Arendt Vanden Heuvel
requested one update to add to meeting minutes. Under Keary Mattson in the
citizens to be heard, it’s a summary and I would like specific information in here with
the comments regarding the current businesses downtown.
B. Presentation of accounts and other claims against the Village
Agenda Changes
None.
Preregistered Citizens to be heard
Tom Hipp – 720 Giese St – My back yard backs up to the new subdivision. I talked to Nathan
and Tom McHugh. Parker was up here with bulldozers, I saw him Tuesday morning and was
starting to dig the first hole, and McHugh said the subcontractors are all really good. Cement
truck is up and down Giese St. These guys don’t know where they’re going. I’d really like for
Hortonville to have documentation when something comes up to call someone and
complain/express concerns. During working hours, we can handle the noise and dust but when
his stuff comes through, they need to know who to call. Our street can’t take this traffic.
Block off Gale so they can’t use that road. They can use the gravel road so they can’t come
down that road. Oh, I support Shauna and Alex.
Shauna Keel – 235 S. Mill St.
I want to piggyback on Tom’s comment – the dump trucks are coming down and are heavy,
which is not good for the road. The bridge is not rated for that traffic as a NON truck route and
because it is currently a detour walking path for pedestrians which means there is a lot more
foot traffic on that route currently and large construction vehicles carrying heavy loads can be a
safety issue on these roads especially during the school day/release times when foot traffic is at
its peak.
Shauna continued….
“I want to use this opportunity to share with the residents of Hortonville and this board a few
things that I have learned over the last few weeks that I didn’t previously know or expect from
the place I have called home for 45 years.
I have learned that there is now an abundance of people asking me if I have operated a strip
club out of my property due to the defamatory and insulting comments and references that were
made on the June 18, 2026, board meeting at 1 hour and 20 min mark. Given that those
comments are now public record, I feel that a public apology is fully justified as it has forced me
to address distressing questions from members of the community in front of my 10-year-old
children.
I have also learned that despite the perceived historical goal of the board to support and
encourage residents’ input, it appears that public participation is now met with intimidation and
potential stalking. At least three residents who recently spoke—as permitted under WI Statutes
19.83 (2) and 19.84 (2)—have faced what I would consider harassment. Furthermore,
numerous notifications from residents and business owners supporting a single campaign have
been entirely ignored.
Based on the open records documents, there seems to be inconsistent enforcement of our
zoning codes and ordinances.
First there are enforcement “gray areas”. If a zoning code or ordinance is being reviewed for
potential changes, it is not going to be enforced allowing violations to potentially be
grandfathered in once finalized.
Second, there is selective application. Ordinances seemingly apply only to new buildings or
businesses, leaving existing non-compliance, regardless of when the non-compliance occurred,
unaddressed or deemed subjective.
Third, there is the Lack of Proof Requirements. Property owners are apparently not required to
provide proof of compliant zoning or conditional use. If neither the owner nor the village has
documentation, the default benefits the property owner, meaning silence equals compliance.
I have also learned that going forward, I will need to notify both the village and the police
department when I choose to enjoy my property for personal pleasure. We now expect police
visits within minutes of turning on our garage lights due to false, anonymous complaints
regarding family gatherings, movie nights or simply spending time on our property. I am not
blaming the police as they are simply responding to a call. I am not sure if this is a new
requirement for all residents, but it certainly seems to be the situation for me. This police
presence and constant feeling of being watched is severely impacting my 10-year-old children's
sense of security. Please be assured that our property is monitored by security cameras and
we are safe. My family visits often.
Regarding our business relocation efforts, the Village held off the decision on the only feasible
and available property for conditional use, primarily due to traffic concerns, yet subsequently
attempted to purchase that same lot from the owner to build a parking lot, a project intended
solely to create traffic. This action is deceitful and unethical. Furthermore, that lot has been left
unmaintained for months, resembling an unsafe site with graffiti and trash. If I were someone
from out of town, I would suspect that is a homeless camp even before the construction started,
not an available lot for business use.
Finally, while the downtown is being redesigned for pedestrians and cyclists, basic infrastructure
maintenance is being neglected on major detour walkways like Mill Street and Bath Street.
Overgrowth and low-hanging trees violate the 14-foot clearance ordinance, forcing adults and
children to walk in the street. Some of these weeds are taller than my 10-yr old and growth of
that nature is from well before construction started. Failing to maintain these high-traffic areas is
negligent and violates code by the village. It is clear, given that the Village is seeking space for
parking, we can expect parking to continue down side-streets and pedestrians to walk to the
downtown. This is not a construction issue; this is a maintenance one.
Out of curiosity, given what I have learned, I am curious as to why the village is focused on
buying all of the available or coming available properties that could be used for businesses.
The village has shown interest in buying the county garage (5 parcels), the empty lot previously
discussed in the downtown district and now another 5-parcel property owned by a single owner.
We have an abundance of residential coming available yet providing nowhere for these people
to establish business for both high schoolers and residents to work.
Our family and business have donated thousands of dollars and countless hours to community
organizations, including the Hortonville Hortonia Fire Department, the Hortonville Police
Department, Adopt a Family, and local emergency snow services. We wish to continue
supporting this community, but we must do better and work together to find a solution that
adheres to what is shared in marketing for the village and our comprehensive plan. Hortonville
claims to support new and local business. It claims to work with residents and business owners
for success and growth. It’s time for those claims to be realized and fulfilled- not just empty
words. It would be great to be able to serve the community again. Great things are only
achieved by working together and listening to our residents- not the opinions of a few but the
desires of the village they represent. I truly hope that we can do better at learning and working
TOGETHER for the goals of those dozens of residents AND existing BUSINESS OWNERS who
have spoken both publicly and via email.
I appreciate your time and really hope that everyone learned as much from what I have said as I
have learned from it in the last few weeks.
Thank you.”
Committee Reports

Unfinished Business from previous meetings
None.
New Business
Discussion and possible action on Economic development Request to increase the
Façade Loan Program maximum amount from $15,000 to $20,000
The Economic Development Committee met a few weeks ago and the suggestion from the
committee and staff was to increase the amount. This helps with the current applicants and the
updates they are doing in the downtown with the grant and façade loan. We still have funds
available; costs have increased since we last updated it. Estimation is given to the village and
we check the work and reimburse them at that point.
Motion [Moeller, Davis] to increase the maximum amount of the Façade Loan Program from
$15,000 to $20,000
Roll call vote, 7 ayes, 0 nays, motion carried.
Discussion and possible action on Special Assessment for Main Street Laterals for 327
W Main Street.
This was one that wasn’t in the special assessment for laterals last meeting. The contractor
couldn’t get in touch with the homeowner until they moved in. It’s the same details as the
others; there’s no difference between them.
Motion [Arendt Vanden Heuvel, Olk] to approve the special assessment for the Main Street
Laterals for 327 W Main Street.
Roll call vote, 7 ayes, 0 nays, motion carried.
Discussion and possible action on Resolution R-14-26 for the Temporary Suspension of
Ordinance 28.4 – Public Consumption of Alcohol Beverages
Correction to the agenda as R-13-26 was already in use. Advancing to the next number of
R-14-26.
This is for the October 30 festival on Main Street and was a suggestion from the State on how to
allow temporary alcoholic usage in the street. It would be allowed by the State.
Motion [Arendt Vanden Heuvel, Olk] to approve Resolution R-14-26
Roll call vote, 7 ayes, 0 nays, motion carried.
Discussion and possible action on the removal of the Temporary No Parking Zone on Olk
Street from Main Street to Nash Street
Chief Bahr addressed the board: We talked about this a couple of weeks ago at board. They
made a pretty big adjustment yesterday. I need to sit on this and wait – we’re detouring a bunch
of traffic and. St. Peter & Paul has asked if they can open up a couple spots on Olk Street for
parking. I think we need to watch these things and change them on the fly.
No action needed.
Discussion and possible action on Speed Limit Change on Grandview Road in the area of
Parkview Drive
Bahr – a resident asked me to take a look at the speed limit. It’s the yellow triangles where the
switch is, some residential. Additional stops and there are some issues where 35 feels a lot
faster there. The proposal would be to switch 35 to 25 to those red triangles. We would make
sure to flag it for awhile to make it noticeable. There’s a lot more going on in that area than
before.
Motion [Arendt Vanden Heuvel, Davis] to change the speed limit as noted from 35 to 25 on
Grandview Road in the area of Parkview Drive.
Roll call vote, 7 ayes, 0 nays, motion carried.
Discussion and possible action on Hortonville Urban Forestry Plan Final
This is part of the grant we got from the state to help pay for the plan. Approving this approves
what the plan says, it doesn’t mean that we are promising to implement the plan. The plan is a
good first step in how we want to manage the trees in the Village.
Motion [Arendt Vanden Heuvel, Olk] to accept the Hortonville Urban Forestry Plan and Tree
Inventory Analysis dated June 2026.
Roll call vote, 7 ayes, 0 nays, motion carried.
Discussion and possible action on Main Street Change Order
Treadwell – there’s a summary in here about the shutoff valves in here with the issue we’re
having. The problem is we have a number of them that don’t work anymore and we have to go
further out in the streets, which means more people without water when we need to shut down a
certain section. If we don’t have a good way to shut the water off, the more water we have to
bring in somehow from neighboring streets.
Ron Wolf from McMahon spoke more on this; discussion ensued.
It costs $48,944 to fix the 3 shutoffs. The amount will come out of the water fund, there is
money in there.
Motion [Moeller, Davis] to approve the change order for Main Street to include the replacing of
the shut off valves in the amount of $48,944.00
Roll call vote, 7 ayes, 0 nays, motion carried.
Discussion and possible action on Special Needs Child Warning Sign Policy
Treadwell – we’ve had a few complaints on speed in certain areas, and someone had
mentioned they had a disabled child. We’ve created a form that would have a checklist to
monitor if people did move within or out of the Village at final billing. The idea is to create a
policy and if someone wanted to have one up, there was a set of criteria on what they would
have to do.
Motion [Arendt Vanden Heuvel, Olk] to accept the special needs child warning sign policy and
application with the changes noted by Nathan.
Roll call vote, 7 ayes, 0 nays, motion carried.
Report of Village Officials
Clerk-Treasurer: The report is in the packet.
Director of Public Works: The report is in the packet.
Chief of Police: I want to show appreciation of staff noted by a property manager on West Main
Street. We’ve had thefts and one property. There’s stuff on social media; we’ve resolved almost
all of these. E-bikes – Nathan and I attended this just hearing other struggles, and what trends
are. Our focus points need to be on safety as everyone is dealing with this right now. When we
talk about helmets and general safety, and potentially what we’re learning, there’s a lot. Safety
needs to be our #1 issue. There are statutes and laws not everyone is aware of.
High school parade – our intention is to speak with the school district. We want to make this as
much of a school and community event as possible. Discussion ensued.
President Bellile – Regarding construction – could the police do some directing down around
Main Street? Chief Bahr: What’s interesting about that is it’s changing so quickly, but we want
traffic to stop for pedestrian crossing. We will continue to monitor traffic.
Library Director: We are actively hiring for our PT position, please keep sharing our Facebook
post; the more eyes on it, the better.
Attorney: Tyler Pluff gave notice. He is going to work in the planning office in Door County.
Hopefully we’ll find someone to replace him. If you have anything outstanding with Tyler, let us
know.
Administrator: The report is in the packet. Trying to stay above water right now, dealing with
the Main Street Project daily, keeping business owners up to date. Temporary routes, detours.
We got our first submittal from the state for the rate case so we’re working on that. It’s been a
very busy few weeks here. President Bellile – when do you want us to start on your review?
Administrator Treadwell – the first meeting in November, if you want to hand them out in
October.
Any other miscellaneous topics for future discussion
None.

Black Otter Lake District news: BOLD had their annual meeting last Thursday. Motion was
passed to look into the new harvester. Jared Dorn was re-elected and BOLD needs one more

Hortonville-Hortonia Fire District news: None.
Gold Cross Ambulance run reports and news: None
Hortonville Civic Association: None.

Comments and suggestions from citizens present
Tom Hipp – look at Tom McHugh’s banner, he tells his sub-contractors to use the construction

Memo
To: Village of Hortonville
From: Makenzie Gingras, P.E. and Eric Thompson, P.E.
Subject: Industrial Park Avenue Drainage Study
Date: August 19, 2026
Introduction
This memorandum summarizes the findings of a modeling study of flood conditions along
Industrial Park Ave., south of Nye St.
Study Area
Figure 1 presents an overview of the entire 110-acre area included in this study. Culvert
and storm sewer elements included in the modeling are labeled.
Methods
Modeling for this study was completed using the PCSWMM 2D computer model (version
7.7.3920). PCSWMM is a fully dynamic integrated hydrologic and hydraulic model
capable of generating runoff hydrographs for specified rainfall conditions and routing the
hydrographs through a complex drainage system consisting of closed conduits
(pipes/culvert) and topographical surface features. The 2D capability of the model allows
simulation of overland flow conditions and the creation of detailed flood maps.
Hydrologic Calculations
Hydrologic calculations were completed using the TR -55, ‘Urban Hydrology for Small
Watersheds’ (USDA, 1986) method. In addition to a rainfall intensity data record to be
used to simulate rainfall conditions, the TR -55 method requires three primary input
parameters to determine peak discharge rates and runoff volumes. These parameters
describe the runoff characteristics of a watershed and include drainage area, runoff curve
number, and time of concentration. The model uses these input parameters to translate
a rainfall hyetograph (distribution of rainfall depth over time) to a runoff hydrograph that
the hydraulic portion of the model then routes through the system to determine peak runoff
rates and flood elevations.

Rainfall Events
Flood conditions for this study were evaluated for various statistical ‘design-event’
conditions, including the 1-, 2-, 10 -, 25-, and 100 -yr 24-hr rainfall events. Event rainfall
depths were assigned using county-level values from NOAA Atlas 14 for Outagamie
County. An MSE 4 rainfall intensity distribution (hyetograph), as appropriate for
Outagamie County, was assigned for all events. Table 1 lists the design rainfall depths
used in the analysis.

Drainage Areas
Drainage areas were manually delineated in GIS software using LiDAR topographic data,
1-foot contours, storm sewer mapping, and aerial photographs obtained from Outagamie
County and the Village of Hortonville. The primary watershed boundary was defined as
those areas draining towards Industrial Park Ave. Subwatersheds were delineated
according to the presence of significant stormwater management features such as
culverts, storm sewer inlets, and ponds.
In total, 110 acres of area is included in the study area limits. This area was subdivided
into 21 subwatersheds.
Runoff Curve Numbers
For this study, each subwatershed was divided into two (2) separate catchment elements,
one representing directly connected imperious areas and one representing the
aggregation of disconnected impervious areas and pervious areas. \
Impervious areas within the study area were manually digitized using GIS software and
recent aerial photos (see Figure 2). Impervious area connectivity was estimated
according to its type (sidewalk, street, roof, etc.) and the surrounding land use category
(residential, commercial, institutional, etc.) according to published average values. In total
40.3 acres of total impervious area was mapped within the study area (36.5% of the study
area) of which approximately 25.6 acres are estimated to be directly connected.
All impervious areas, regardless of connectivity, were assigned a runoff curve number of
98. Water surfaces within ponds were treated as impervious and assigned a runoff curve
number value of 100. Pervious areas were identified as either turf, woods, or cropland.
Curve numbers were assigned to each pervious land use class according to their
underlying hydrologic soil classification as defined by USDA NRCS soil mapping. Figure

Times of Concentration
Times of concentration were calculated assuming only sheet flow and shallow
concentrated flow regimes occurred. Unique times of concentration values were
calculated for each subwatershed and for each directly connected impervious and
pervious portion of each subwatershed.
Sheet flow was limited to a maximum of 100-feet and was assigned a Manning’s
roughness coefficient based off the land use along the flow path:
Impervious surfaces (street surfaces), n = 0.016
Turf grass, n = 0.150
Woods: Light underbrush, n = 0.400
Cultivated: Residue<20% (agricultural areas), n = 0.060
Shallow concentrated flow was assumed to be occurring between the end of the
sheet flow conditions and the outlet point for the subwatershed (typically at a
culvert inlet). Shallow concentrated flow velocity factors were assigned as follows:
Impervious areas (paved), velocity factor = 20.3 ft/sec.
Grassed waterways (turf grass), velocity factor = 15.0 ft/sec.
Woodland, velocity factor = 5.0 ft/sec
Cultivated Straight Rows (agricultural areas), velocity factor = 9.0 ft/sec
Short Grass Pasture, velocity factor = 7.0 ft/sec
Due to the small size and corresponding short overland flow path within many of the
subwatersheds, calculated time of concentration values were often less than 6 minutes.
In such cases, a minimum value of 6 minutes was applied.

Hydraulic Calculations
Information describing existing drainage infrastructure was obtained primarily from
engineering design plans and construction record drawings provided by the village. MSA
staff also conducted several visual inspections of drainage structures and took
measurements of critical dimensions. No topographic survey was conducted, when
elevation data was required, it was estimated from LiDAR topographic mapping.
1D Hydraulic Drainage System . Hydraulic modeling of culverts and storm sewer was
completed using a 1D layer within the model. The following information was used in the
1D model:
Pipes & Other Hydraulic Conveyances
o Length
o Diameter (the majority of pipes in the study area are circular)
o Upstream and downstream inverts
o Material
Manholes/Inlets:
o Structure invert
o Incoming/outgoing pipe invert
o Rim elevation
Storm Sewer Inlet Capacity
o N/A. Storm sewer inlet capacity was not considered for this study.
Manning Roughness
o Reinforced concrete pipes (RCP) were assigned a value of 0.013.
o Corrugated metal pipes (CMP) were assigned a value of 0.025.
o Corrugated plastic pipe was assigned a value of 0.020.
Minor Losses
o Culvert and Pipe Entrances
End Section conforming to fill = 0.5
Projecting = 0.9
o Culver and Pipe Exits
To open channel = 0.5
To lake or pond = 1.0
o Storm Sewer Junctions:
Straight Through = 0.05
45-degree bend = 0.25
90-degree bend = 0.5

There are two wet ponds located at the far eastern/downstream-most end of the study
area. Neither engineering plans or construction as-build documents were available and
so the pond storage areas could not be defined as 1D elements, which is a more accurate
way to evaluate pond function. Instead, pond storage volumes were modeled as part of
the 2D surface. Pond outlet structure sizes were obtained through field inspections and
were entered into the model as 1D elements. Elevation data describing structure inverts
was approximated from LiDAR data.
2D Surface Hydraulic Drainage System. The 2D surface was used by the model to
route runoff through the study area any time there was inadequate pipe capacity or where
the predominant drainage system was via surface flow. The entire study area was
included as a 2D surface within the PCSWMM model. All buildings were set to be inactive,
forcing surface flow to pass around buildings.
2D cell size varied throughout the study area. A minimum variable time step of 0.5
seconds was used regardless of cell size. The model grid cell size resolution and style
varies depending on the land use and impervious coverage. Street surfaces utilize a
rectangular style with a 12ft resolution. The remainder of the model area utilizes a
hexagonal style with a 20ft resolution. Within each assigned grid cell, values defining
overland flow characteristics are aggregated to a single value applicable to the entire area
defined by a single cell.
There were five principal roughness categories assigned to the 2D model layer. The
following Manning roughness values were assigned for each:
2D Land Use and Roughness Values
o Turf = 0.03
o Pavement = 0.016
o Gravel = 0.02
o Agricultural & Wooded = 0.05
o Water = 0.1
1D-2D connections were added to the model to connect the 1D and 2D layers of the
model at the junctions representing catch basins, inlets, or culvert entrances and outfalls.
Catch basins and inlets used the ‘connect bottom orifices’ method. Culvert entrances and
outfalls were connected with the ‘direct connection method’ as this replaces the 2D node
at that location with the corresponding 1D node and updates the invert of the 2D cell to
match the 1D node invert.
A 2D downstream boundary condition was added around the perimeter of the ponds east
of Industrial Avenue. The boundary condition allowed a ‘free outfall’ from the ponds once
the pond containment berm was overtopped.

Important findings from the data shown in Tables 3 and 4 are:
1. The intersection of Nye Street and Industrial Park Avenue is anticipated to be
overtopped during 10-yr and larger flood events. This is a lower service level than
the 25-yr event, which might be expected for a culvert crossing under a county
road.
2. The estimated service level of the 15” and 18” driveway culverts are influenced by
the restriction and Nye Street as well as a backwater condition caused by the
downstream pond. These culverts are smaller in size than the upstream culvert at
Nye Street, so any plans to increase the size of the culvert at Nye Street would
likely cause the driveway culverts to overtop with greater frequency.
3. The cross-culvert under Industrial Park Avenue is predicted to be overtopped
during 1-yr and larger events, although flows over the road are low until roughly
10-yr conditions. As a local road, a typical service level might be established at a
10-yr level; however, as this culvert is along a major open channel, a minimum 25-
yr service level, or even higher, could be appropriate. Unfortunately, there is only
approximately 2.5 feet of distance between the invert of the culverts under
Industrial Park Drive and the elevation of the centerline of Industrial Park Avenue.
Installing larger culvert pipes at this location to achieve a higher level of service
will likely require raising the roadway profile.
4. The stormwater detention pond east of Industrial Park Avenue has an
unconventional configuration and is likely contributing to upstream flooding along
Industrial Park Drive.
a. The approximately normal water in the pond is elevation 843.0. This is
controlled by the invert of the pond’s 36-inch diameter primary outlet pipe.
MEMO
August 19, 2026
G:\07\07807\07807041\Reports\Hortonville_Industrial_Park_Ave_Drainage_Study.docx
LiDAR mapping indicates that the containment berm surrounding the pond
has an overflow elevation of approximately 845.2, indicating that the pond
will overtop before the 36” pipe reaches maximum capacity (at overtopping
depth, the pipe will pass less than 80% of design capacity).
b. The 2-yr peak flood elevation in the pond is approximately 845.2, right at
the elevation of the overflow berm. Under these conditions:
i. Floodwater will be within 0.3 feet of flooding Industrial Park Avenue
at its low spot.
ii. Floodwater will back up in the roadside ditches along Industrial Park
Avenue to roughly the midpoint between the 15” and 18” driveway
culverts. Water may pool here for an extended time.
Potential Improvement Alternatives
Nye Street. Tables 5, below identifies the anticipated size of cross-culvert necessary to
achieve increasing levels-of-service at this location. Estimated construction costs are
also included. These cost estimates are inclusive of the pipe length, apron endwalls, and
pavement replacement. The proposed pipes are assumed to be reinforced concrete pipes
(RCP).

Cost
10-Year 30” 46 $55,000
25-Year 36” 79 $60,000
100-Year 42” 116 $75,000
Driveway Culverts. If the capacity of the culvert under Nye St. is increased, the
subsequent driveway culverts on the Hortonville Storage Center property should also be
considered for improvement. Costs to replace culverts under each driveway is anticipated
to be comparatively less than that for Nye Street (private vs. public). Nevertheless, an
additional $50,000 to $70,000 could be anticipated to replace both culverts (total for both).
Industrial Park Ave. There is very little cover over the existingdual 24” culverts crossing
under Industrial Park Avenue. Additionally, backwater effects from the downstream pond
would reduce the capacity of any larger culvert installed at this location, assuming it could
be made to fit. Short of fully reconstructing the road allowing a major upsizing of the
cross-culverts, or potential modifications to the pond that could have extensive
downstream ramifications, it is likely that only minimal improvements in flooding
conditions at this location can be achieved. Replacement of the existing dual 24” pipes
at this location with dual 36” equivalent horizontal elliptical pipes, the largest that can be
MEMO

G:\07\07807\07807041\Reports\Hortonville_Industrial_Park_Ave_Drainage_Study.docx
accommodated without changing the roadway profile, might be capable of achieving a 1-
yr level of service, but could cost as much as $70,000.
Stormwater Pond. As has been mentioned previously, the configuration of the existing
pond’s outlet structure is unconventional and the pond causes backwater conditions on
Industrial Park Avenue as well as, at least, the southern driveway culvert east of Industrial
Park Avenue (serving the mini storage site). Modification of this pond to lower flood
elevations would likely increase discharges onto downstream properties beyond the
scope of this study and would need to be evaluated. It is noted that the pond lies right
near the Village limits, but that the drainage channel receiving water from the pond flows
north and back into the Village under Nye Street approximately 1,800 feet east of
Industrial Park Avenue. Regardless of improvements that could be made within the study
area, modifications to the pond could potentially cause additional impacts within other
parts of the Village.

DIVISION 2. PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT (PUD)
Sec. 44-92. Purpose.
The purpose of the planned unit development district is to promote creative and efficient use of the land by
providing design flexibility in the application of the provisions of a primary zoning district by providing an overlay
district within any of the primary zoning districts. The planned unit development provisions are intended to:
(1) Protect natural features in private, common, or public open space.
(2) Improve the efficiency of public streets and utilities.
(3) Provide transitions in land use in keeping with the character of adjacent land use, or improve the
arrangement of structures, facilities, and amenities on a site for both private and public benefit.
(Code 1989, § 17.27(1))
Sec. 44-93. Designation.
All planned unit development districts shall be designated on the official zoning map of the village and in the
legal description of the property to be overlayed.
(Code 1989, § 17.27(2))
Sec. 44-94. Uses.
All principal, provisional, conditional, and accessory uses allowed in the primary zoning district are permitted
in the planned unit development district subject to the provisions of the primary zoning district and as specified on
an approved development plan.
(Code 1989, § 17.27(3))
Sec. 44-95. Applicability.
All applicable primary zoning district provisions, other than use restrictions, are superseded by the approval
of a preliminary development plan by the village board. The approved preliminary development plan establishes
the provisions. The preliminary or final development plan shall govern and take precedence over primary zoning
district provisions. However, no preliminary or final development plan shall be approved by the village board
which, for the total land area of the planned development:
(1) Exceeds maximum coverage area of a lot by more than 30 percent;

and
(3) Reduces minimum setback in an industrial primary zoning district from a property line adjoining a
residential primary zoning district. The approval of a final development plan subject to the provisions
of the planned unit development district shall satisfy the requirements for final site and building plan
approval in all primary and overlay zoning districts.
(Code 1989, § 17.27(5))
Sec. 44-96. Applicable procedure.
Prior to an applicant's request for rezoning, or submission of a preliminary development plan, a pre-PUD
application meeting is required between the applicant and village staff. At this time the appropriate application
procedures, requirements and applicable Code provisions will be reviewed and explained. Prior to the issuance of
any permits for development within a planned unit development district, a rezoning of planned unit development
district shall be adopted by the village board, a preliminary development plan shall be approved by the village
board, and a final development plan shall be approved by the village board according to the procedure provided in
this division.

within the planned unit development district may be issued. The applicant shall submit a final development
plan to the zoning administrator. The planning and zoning commission shall conduct an informal public
hearing to consider a recommendation for approval or disapproval of a final development plan. At this public
hearing, the planning and zoning commission shall receive a report from the zoning administrator
recommending approval, disapproval, or approval with specified modifications. The planning and zoning
commission shall determine that the proposed final development plan is in substantial conformance with the
approved preliminary development plan. Upon due consideration, the planning and zoning commission shall
recommend to the village board, by a two-thirds vote of the entire commission, approval of the final

DIVISION 6. NONCONFORMING USES
Sec. 12-197. Generally.
(a) Applicability. If standards of this division conform with Wis. Stats. § 62.23(7)(h), they shall apply to all
modifications or additions to any nonconforming use or structure and to the use of any structure or premises
which was lawful before the passage of the ordinance from which this article is derived or any amendment
thereto.
(b) The existing lawful use of a structure or its accessory use which is not in conformity with the provisions of
this article may continue subject to the following conditions:
(1) No modifications or additions to a nonconforming use or structure shall be permitted unless they
comply with this article. The terms "modification" and "addition" include, but are not limited to, any
alteration, addition, modification, structural repair, rebuilding or replacement of any such existing use,
structure or accessory structure or use. Ordinary maintenance repairs are not considered an extension,
modification or addition; these include painting, decorating, paneling and the replacement of doors,
windows and other nonstructural components and the maintenance, repair or replacement of existing
private sewage or water supply systems or connections to public utilities. Ordinary maintenance
repairs do not include any costs associated with the repair of a damaged structure. The construction of
a deck that does not exceed 200 square feet and that is adjacent to the exterior wall of a principal
structure is not an extension, modification or addition. The roof of the structure may extend over a
portion of the deck in order to provide safe ingress and egress to the principal structure.
(2) If a nonconforming use or the use of a nonconforming structure is discontinued for 12 consecutive
months, it is no longer permitted and any future use of the property, and any structure or building
thereon, shall conform to the applicable requirements of this article.
(3) The village shall keep a record which lists all nonconforming uses and nonconforming structures, their
present equalized assessed value, the cost of all modifications or additions which have been permitted,
and the percentage of the structure's total current value those modifications represent.
(4) No modification or addition to any nonconforming structure or any structure with a nonconforming
use, which over the life of the structure would equal or exceed 50 percent of its present equalized
assessed value, shall be allowed unless the entire structure is permanently changed to a conforming
structure with a conforming use in compliance with the applicable requirements of this article.
Contiguous dry land access must be provided for residential and commercial uses in compliance with
section 12-146(1). The costs of elevating a nonconforming building or a building with a nonconforming
use to the flood protection elevation are excluded from the 50 percent provisions of this subsection.
(5) Substantially damaged or destroyed nonconforming structures or buildings.
a. Except as provided in subsection (b)(2) of this section, if any nonconforming structure or any
structure with a nonconforming use is destroyed or is substantially damaged, it cannot be

effective date of adoption or amendment of the ordinance from which this chapter is derived, which are no longer
permitted or permissible by the provisions of this chapter as adopted or amended or as a result of some other
government action (for example, as a result of a right-of-way acquisition) shall be deemed nonconforming. It is the
intent of this chapter to recognize the interests of landowners in continuing to use their property for uses and
activities that were lawfully established and to permit such nonconformities to continue subject to certain
restrictions.
Sec. 44-157. Nonconforming uses.
A nonconforming use is a land use that was lawfully established in accordance with all zoning regulations in
effect at the time of its establishment but that is no longer allowed by the use regulations of the zoning district in
which the use is now located. Such use may continue subject to the following restrictions:

zoning and building regulations, but does not meet the current setback, height, or other dimensional or density
requirements of this ordinance for permitted uses in the zoning district in which it is located. A nonconforming
structure may be maintained and repaired, subject to the following restrictions.
(1) Additions or expansions may be made to a nonconforming structure provided that such additions or
expansions do not increase the degree of nonconformity of the structure.

March 2, 2006, by violent wind, vandalism, fire, flood, ice, snow, mold, or infestation may be restored
or rebuilt to its size, location, and use that it had immediately before the damage or destruction
occurred, except that it may be constructed larger in size to the extent required to comply with
applicable state or federal requirements. Such reconstruction shall start within one year from the date
of damage or destruction and diligently pursued to completion.
Sec. 44-159. Nonconforming lots of record.
A nonconforming lot is a lawfully platted and recorded lot but no longer meets all applicable minimum lot
area or lot width regulations of the zoning district in which the lot is located. A nonconforming lot may be used as
a building site and developed with a use allowed in the subject zoning district subject to the following conditions:
(1) Development of nonconforming lots must comply with the lot and building regulations of the subject
zoning district unless otherwise expressly stated.
(2) Nonconforming lots may not be adjusted in size or shape to create additional nonconformity or increase
the degree of nonconformity for lot area, lot width, setbacks, or other applicable lot and building
regulations. Lot area of shape adjustments that do not increase the extent of nonconformity are
allowed.
(3) The existence of a nonconforming lot may be maintained under this chapter, but where practicable,
should be eliminated in the event of any division of contiguous property owned by the same owner. If
two or more lots or combinations of contiguous lots in single ownership are of record at the effective
date of adoption or amendment of this chapter, the lands involved shall be considered to be an
individual parcel for the purpose of this chapter and no portion of such parcel shall be used, divided, or
sold which does not meet the lot area and lot width requirements for the district in which it is located.

Sec. 44-160. Repairs and maintenance.
Nothing in this chapter shall be deemed to prevent normal maintenance or repair of any structure or to prevent
restoring to a safe condition any structure declared to be unsafe.
Sec. 44-161. Nonconforming characteristics of use.
If characteristics of use such as lighting, parking, or other matters pertaining to the use of land, premises, and
structures are made nonconforming by the provisions of this chapter as adopted or amended, no change shall
thereafter be made in such characteristics of use which increase the nonconformity, however, that changes may
be made which do not increase or which decrease such nonconformity.

Administrator Update – 9/05/26-9/14/26
Economic Development
Property by Gilbert’s
o I have received some additional proposals for potential developments that
I am currently reviewing. I should have more information available to
provide at the next meeting.
Nature’s Haven Subdivision
o I have been working with McHugh and a local property owner to allow
signage at the entrance to Wayne Drive rather than at the subdivision
entrance. The goal is to help direct construction traffic to the appropriate
entrance.
o McHugh indicated that if construction traffic continues to use the wrong
entrance despite the signage, they would like the Village to issue tickets as
necessary.
Projects
Main Street – West Segment
o I attended a meeting with the County and railroad to discuss the railroad
crossing and its reconstruction. The County also invited WisDOT to
participate so they could provide guidance and serve as an advocate when
working with the railroad.
o We discussed the proposed submittals and agreed that the Village and
County should complete all legally required improvements. In addition,
we plan to add signage along the trail and pavement markings in the area
to provide additional warning of the railroad crossing.
Zoning Project
o I have a good portion of the zoning code ready for discussion at the next
meeting. Following this week’s meeting, the remaining sections we will
need to review include:
Signs and Billboards – A few requested changes need to be made
before bringing this section back to the Planning and Zoning
Commission.

Memorial Square Update
o The fountain does have a dog attachment for filling water bottles.
o For watering the plants in the square, a water system is being installed, so
there will not be a need for a traditional spigot.
New Phone Contractor
o I have secured a time-and-materials contractor to assist with our current
phone system as needed. This will replace Unitel, which has discontinued
operations.
o There is no contract requirement; we simply needed to establish a new
contractor for the phone system if service or assistance is needed in the
future.
o We considered two options, one located in Milwaukee and one located in
the Appleton area. We selected the contractor from Appleton.
2027 CIP
o Aaron and I met with Ariana to discuss the 2027 Capital Improvement
Plan and the potential delay of a portion of the Main Street project.
o We discussed the proposed changes and additional projects. Ariana is
currently working through the numbers as we make updates so we can
have a finalized plan for next year.
Trail Planning for 2027
o Aaron and I met with MSA to discuss several areas of the trail plan for
2027, including questions about how we want to address signage and other
features in the area behind Main Street.
o
Downtown Valve Replacement Update
o While completing the downtown valve replacement, staff and I reviewed
the project and determined that we could save several thousand dollars by
removing one of the valves from the project.
o There is another valve located approximately 10 feet away, so maintaining
both valves did not make practical sense.
Locating Equipment Issue
o I have directed Aaron and the Utility Department to bring forward the two
quotes we have received for a new locator used to identify the location of
underground pipes and utilities.
o We are required to locate our lines within 18 inches. We experienced an
issue with this during the Main Street project because our current GPS
locator has an accuracy range of approximately 5–10 feet.
o The new equipment would allow us to locate lines within inches. Staff had
been waiting for another quote, but due to the recent issues we have
experienced, I asked them to bring the options forward for consideration.
Meetings and other Events
o Worked Dash Down Nash
o Met with Fox West Chamber again to discuss Halloween event
