Aldermanic Reports Alderperson Akers and Mayor Neitzke discussed the concert series at Konkel Park that has started. G. Announcements H. Citizen Commentary Mayor Neitzke introduced Linda Strike, 4942 S. 78th St. She stated, "I think I wouldn't have to come and speak here tonight, but another year has come and gone and at myself and my neighbors on my block, still have to listen to constant 24/7 noise coming from the air conditioning unit of the Ascension Hospital at 4935 S. 78th Street. I am here again, before you, to ask the Common Council to please take action to force the people responsible for the maintenance of the Ascension Hospital to fix the persistent, irritating noise coming from their air conditioning unit. I stood here last year with the same request and no resolution. The noise has been getting significantly louder every year from the time I get up in the morning to pick up the paper till the time I take the dog out at night. There is a constant, high-pitched whine in addition to the general noise running of the unit always in the background of my hearing. We cannot even sleep with our windows open, as the sound keeps us from getting a good night's rest. Last year, Mayor, you were kind enough to stop over after a meeting with the Council to hear the noise for yourself. And, Mr. Mayor, we appreciated your effort and taking the time to hear it. A few of us had recorded the noises on our phones, which I would be happy to send to each and every one of you if you want to hear it. I know the people of Ascension have been made aware of the problem since 2024 for sure, maybe even 2023. However, they seem to be very reluctant to fix it. My assumption is they just don't care and don't want to spend the money to get it fixed correctly. From what I saw in your GIS map, according to latest assessment, this property is valued at over $13,000,000. I would think anyone owning that valuable a property has the money to take care of the problem. However, the owners are out of state. So ask yourself, 'Why should they care about a Greenfield neighborhood?' But I do, and I hope you will too. We the people who live on the block cannot force them to do anything, but you can. The City of Greenfield has various tools available to require whoever is responsible for the maintenance of the hospital to address this issue once and for all. I ask you again, please hear us and help us enjoy our yards again like prior to the conversion of the Barnes and Noble into the hospital, we had been previously able to do. In my case, for over 40 years. Thank you." Mayor Neitzke introduced Casey Dembowiak, who said, "Thank you very much for having Linda and I here. Like Linda said, I first reported this problem in 2022, when I think this hospital fully took to the opening with this ringing." Alderperson Bailey asked him to state his name and address. Mr. Dembowiak continued, Minutes are not official until formally approved by the Common Council at the next scheduled meeting. Page 2 of 9 CC: 6-16-2026 "My name is Casey Dembowiak. My address is 4955 S. 78th Street. I live an angled direction from this Ascension Hospital. This ringing, I have recordings of it; if you'd like me to play it from two days ago from my bedroom, from the side of my house, and my porch. It's a constant ringing. I spend half of my life on the east side of Milwaukee because I own and operate a greenhouse, and the ringing is more distress than living on Humboldt Boulevard in the middle of Milwaukee. It keeps me awake. Vanderbilt has done a lot review on this constant ringing because it's happening more and more now with data centers and air conditioning units. It's called a noise nuisance, a public disturbance sounds that interfere with the public peace or violation specific tone and decibel limits. There's currently lawsuits right now in Mississippi, Detroit, Washington, Arkansas with crypto mines with the same exact ringing that they're coming under lawsuits. There was actually a case in New Jersey, and the plaintiffs with the ringing sued the city and the companies, and they won. There is a thing on ABC news: a high pitched whistle coming from a nearby business at night is usually caused by failing industrial fans, commercial HVAC chillers, compressed air leaks. They seem unusually loud at nighttime due to the temperature inversion, a lack of daytime noise. This is all I hear at nighttime. It wakes me up, and I can't even tell you, once you wake up by this pitch, you stay awake. A high-pitched whistle can cause physical harm if the sound is excessively loud or even at low volumes. Substained exposure can cause ear discomfort, headaches, tinnitus. Beyond physical damage, sleep disruption resulting in stress, fatigue, and anxiety are health risks. Our whole neighborhood is hearing this. We can't sit in our backyards. We can't sit outside. I can't even sleep. I love living in Greenfield. I love paying our police department. They make good money. I have a few police friends. They make very good wages, and they're doing a great job protecting us as citizens. But I personally feel like the Common Council has failed us over the last five years. We have no City Attorney sitting here because we decided we were going to save money as a city, so we were going to keep him on a retainer. And y'all can't approve to hire a city attorney to fight this for our neighborhood. It's a disgrace, I think. I wish it would go away. I wish you guys would see and hear us because I don't think you do. Last year you were going to take care of it, and zero. It's all I hear, constant ringing. There's lawsuits coming on with cities and states that are getting sued because of this. There needs to be something. It's keeping us awake at nighttime. The tax rate on that property is $170,000 for their property taxes. We have 20 houses that signed that petition, like the Common Council asked us to do to send to the company to send everyone. We did this, and we are responsible for a $156,000 tax base. I think that we live there; that's our neighborhood. Y'all need to help us out because it's terrible. Thank you." Mayor Neitzke said that their comments are going to be recorded verbatim in the minutes and that will help. Our City Attorney is in contact with them as we speak. Mr. Dembowiak added, "It would be nice if the Common Council would approve the City Attorney some funds for him to fight this for us." Mayor Neitzke said that we have already done that. He's doing that. Mayor Neitzke said that he understands the distress that it causes. He apologized profusely. I. Public Hearings 1.

Scott Jaquish, Parks and Recreation Director, explained that there was an approved resolution that said that volunteers or City staff could only sell beer at the AMP at Konkel Park.

On a roll call vote, motion carried unanimously. 7. Adopt an ordinance to create section 9.16 barring loitering in medians and safety zones.

Alderperson Kastner spoke about rules that we uphold that don't have signage, and how the signage helps but doesn't preclude us from enforcing even without the signs. Mayor Neitzke added that there are daily calls for public service for individuals on medians to have them move along and not subject themselves to safety and hazard risks.

Motion by Alderperson Akers, seconded by Alderperson Drzewiecki to approve. Mayor Neitzke said that Mr. Jaquish has been with the City for 30 years. Tomorrow is his last day before retiring. Under his stewardship and leadership within the City: the AMP was built; the Farmer's Market went to Konkel Park; Dan Jansen's grounds were vastly improved; the volleyball courts were moved and improved; the AMP Haus is wonderful; Konkel Park's expansion and improvements were made; obtaining Kulwicki Park; the Powerline Trail and its phases and locations; the improvements of parks; the Falcon Trail; the massive amount of Park and Rec program registrations; Cruisin' Santa; Easter; the Christmas Tree Lighting; the ice skating rink; and everything you've done. He said that on behalf of the City of Greenfield and its 37,803 residents and Common Council, he applauded Mr. Jaquish's work. Mr. Jaquish thanked everyone and said that he didn't do any of those accomplishments alone. The Common Council was there step by step. He will miss the relationships and friendships most. The accomplishments are nice, but he treasured meeting people along the way more, including the Common Council. He thanked them for allowing him to complete the accomplishments that they did.
