It was moved by Trustee Saunders, seconded by Trustee Dettmann that the Village Board adopt Resolution No.
3204 – Recognizing Whitefish Bay Little League. Motion carried 6-0.
2. Discussion/action on the Hampton and Santa Monica Intersection Improvement Project concept design.
Director of Public Works, Matt Collins, provided background on the project and development of the concepts
presented tonight. Adam Walter, from Strand Associates, presented information provided in meeting packet
including three alternative designs for the intersection. It was mentioned to extend bike lanes outside of this
project area within the Village. It was mentioned that this could be brought to the Public Works Committee at a
future meeting. Feedback received was detailed and some modifications included in the proposals were
discussed. There was discussion of signals proposed versus the current set up. Number of driveways and
proximity to the intersection were discussed, with Director Collins stating that original proposal was to close
some driveways and what has led to the change in the current alternatives. Project timeline was described.
Pedestrian safety improvements proposed were discussed in detail. Restrictions, resulting from federal funding
and the physical constraints of the intersection were discussed. Truck routes and their impact on the proposals
were mentioned. Involvement of the City of Milwaukee was discussed along with the ongoing conversations
with the city were described. There was mention that in the future there could be discussion around the Oak
Leaf Trail and Hampton which it was stated that it would require redrawing boundaries, but the Village can
encourage changes at this intersection.
Debra Marcus Watton (9289 Fairway Drive, Bayside, WI) president of Milwaukee Funeral Services LLC, which
operates Goodman Benson, stated that there are not many northbound bikers on Wilson and southbound bikers
often access the trail. It was suggested to have a light or other method to assist bicyclist onto the trail on N.
Wilscon Dr. Ms. Watton stated that she would like to minimize the adverse impact on the funeral home,
especially the on-street parking which the uses of the street parking were detailed. The reduction in on-street
parking stalls was described. It was requested to allow limited street parking during winter months or short
periods of time.
Mr. Walter stated that the parking has been reduced from seven (7) parking spaces to four (4) to allow for
additional safety in sight lines around the curve in that area. If parking stayed the same the trade-offs were
mentioned.
It was moved by Trustee Haller seconded by Trustee Vanevenhoven that the Village Board approve the Hampton
Ave. and Santa Monica Blvd. alternative B traffic signal and intersection design concept as shown in the meeting
packet memo and exhibits also including Board commentary. Motion carried 6-0.
Chris Jaekels left the meeting.
3. Discussion/action on design concepts and survey results for the Klode Warming House.
Peter Damsgaard, with Groth, reviewed the Klode Park warming house design concepts and community survey
results. Of 465 responses, approximately 65% favored Option A and 62% favored its pavilion location. The Board
agreed to use Option A as the base design while incorporating favorable elements from Option B, including
lighter exterior materials. The Board supported exploring a family restroom, covered bicycle and stroller parking,
and beach-user amenities, while determining that significant pedestrian or parking improvements were outside
the project’s current scope.
The Board agreed that the pavilion will be located near the warming house and discussed the orientation, sight
lines, sound direction, and vehicle access to the basin. Staff was directed to explore adjustments to the
pavilion’s size, orientation, and footprint while maintaining the preferred location, and to identify an
appropriate vehicle-access solution. Staff will also study exterior material options and develop a potential
enhanced band shell concept for future fundraising. The design team will refine Option A based on the Board’s
feedback and return with updated plans.
4. Discussion/action on new Silver Spring monument signs to be paid for by private development
projects.
Village Manager, Kelsey McElroy-Anderson, provided background on the proposals and stated that feedback
was received from Village Board, Architectural Review Commission (ARC), Community Development Authority
(CDA) and the Business Improvement (BID). The board agreed that the signs should have a consistent design that
establishes a distinct Village brand. Existing signs and if they would be changed were discussed. Board generally
desired Option 4, as amended, using red brick that compliments adjacent buildings. The board preferred
pyramid style caps and centered “Village of Whitefish Bay” lettering, a blue Village logo, “EST 1892” centerd on
the sign and a straight-sided monument design. Lettering will be a dark bronze or dark neutral color and halo
lighting is preferred.
There was discussion on the “Established 1926” on the Sendik’s building as show in one photo in the packet,
agreeing that its removal or relocation would help avoid confusion at the Village gateway. Staff will continue
discussions with property owner, with assistance from a Village Board representative. Staff and the design team
were directed to incorporate the feedback into the final plan set and refine the remaining details, including brick
selection, font, colors, and lighting. The group agreed that another ARC review was not necessary at this stage.
5. Discussion/action on single-family dwelling side yard setback and distance to neighbor dwellings in
Districts 1, 1A, and 2.
Director of Building Services, Joel Oestreich, summarized previous discussions at both Village Board and ARC.
Recommendations from the discussion at ARC were detailed. Making changes to the checklist versus code was
mentioned. Detering trespassing was discussed. The Board supported ARC’s recommendation to revise the
application checklist to clearly identify the location, existing setbacks, and distance to neighboring structures,
including side façades. The Board agreed that this information would help ARC better evaluate situations where
homes are located close to property lines.
The Board did not support changing the existing three-foot setback requirement at this time due to potential
impacts on development, building design, and constructability. Staff was directed to implement the checklist
changes and continue exploring potential solutions to construction and enforcement concerns related to
properties with limited side-yard setbacks.
It was moved by Trustee Haller, seconded by Trustee Vanevenhoven, that the Village Board direct ARC to amend
the submittal checklist to include language regarding required survey information as shown in meeting packet
and that staff amend the Design area Worksheet to include the adjacent dwelling setback with additional
language as directed by the Board. Motion carried 6-0.
6. Discussion/action regarding proposed changes to the improved space requirements for accessory
buildings or structures in District 1, 1A, 2 and 3.
Assistant Village Manager, Anna Christopherson, stated that there have been inquiries on finishing space in
detached garages. The proposal would allow improved space above detached garages, subject to zoning
coverage limits, maintaining required vehicle parking on the ground floor, limiting the improved space to the
garage footprint, and prohibiting cooking and sleeping facilities. The Board also discussed whether similar
provisions should eventually apply to detached accessory buildings and accessory dwelling units, but no action
was taken on those broader issues.
It was moved by Trustee Haller, seconded by Trustee Dettmann that the Village Board refer an ordinance to
amend Municipal Code § 16-3, 16-8A(2)(b), 16-8C(1) and 16-11A(4)(c) pertaining to improved space in accessory
buildings to the Plan Commission to review. Motion carried 6-0.
7. Adjourn
There being no further business, it was moved by Trustee Saunders seconded by Trustee Dettmann to adjourn
the meeting at 9:31 p.m. Motion carried 6-0.

Memo to: President Kevin Buckley and the Village Board of Trustees
From: Matthew Collins, Director of Public Works
Re: Craig Counsell Park Improvements
Over the last five years, Craig Counsell Park has undergone several key drainage, accessibility, and athletic facility upgrades, largely
through joint efforts between the Village of Whitefish Bay and the Whitefish Bay Little League.
These improvements included:
• Porous Pavement & ADA Accessibility Improvements (2024 –2025): The Village removed deteriorated red granite pathways
in spectator areas and replaced them with permeable pavers and porous asphalt. Underneath, an underground stone
storage chamber was installed to collect stormwater and connect directly to adjacent stor m sewers, significantly reducing
drainage issues while providing full ADA accessibility for spectators. This project was funded via Milwaukee Metropolitan
Sewerage District (MMSD) Green Solutions grants.
• Infield Synthetic Turf Conversions (2024–2025):
o Majors Field (2024): The Majors field infield was converted from a natural grass and dirt diamond mix to synthetic
turf with underdrains to improve field playability and drastically reduce weather cancellations.
o Minors Field (2024–2025): Following the success of the Majors field, the Minors field infield underwent a matching
synthetic turf conversion involving excavation, concrete, drain tile, base coarse aggregate, and turf installation,
reaching completion in late 2025.
• Spectator Safety Netting Replacement & Expansion (2026): In early 2026, approval was granted to replace the park's 15-
year-old safety netting and expand coverage across high foot-traffic areas. The new commercial netting will enclose viewing
areas between fields, along the walkway near the concession stand, and over the adjacent playground to protect spectators
and children from errant foul balls. This project was 100% funded and managed by the Little League.
• Facility & Dugout Upgrades: As part of ongoing capital investments over the last five years, new dugouts were constructed
to support youth baseball programming
The Whitefish Bay Little League organization continues to find ways to improve recreational spaces for the community to further
enhance experiences by kids and spectators. The Little League board has prioritized additional investments including planting new
trees within the park, improvements to the Pee Wees field, and financially supporting a feasibility study for Cahill Park’s baseball
field. If recommended for approval, this project would be 100% funded and managed including all necessary construction
restoration activities by the Little League organization.
Proposed Project Overview:
New Trees at Craig Counsell Park: The Little League is requested to purchase new trees within the park that will be located mainly
on the exterior perimeter of the minor’s left field. These trees would offer wind protection, shade, and offer beautification to the
park. Additional trees based on available funds would also be located in spectator areas by the Pee Wees field. These trees would be
placed in areas that would benefit spectators, but not impact the playing conditions of the fields or open spaces within the park.
Final species selections and locations would be approved by Village staff.
Pee Wees Field Improvements: Two fields have undergone major improvements with the conversion of the infields to turf, with the
Pee Wees field is planned to be rehabilitated to offer improved stormwater drainage, grass/sod restoration, and new infield mix.
On 9/14/26, the Public Works Committee discussed and made a recommendation to the Village Board to accept the proposed
improvements.
Refer to attached documents for additional project information.
Public Works Committee Recommends to the Village Board:
To accept the proposed Craig Counsell Park improvements at no cost to the Village as described within the attached
memo and exhibits.
Whitefish Bay Little League
Pee Wee Field Rebuild Scope of Work
Outfield
TLC Athletic Fields will excavate and remove the existing turf throughout the entire outfield
and regrade the area to improve overall drainage and playability. Currently, there is
approximately a 2-foot elevation difference between the base of the left-field foul pole and
home plate. To reduce the amount and velocity of surface water flowing toward the infield,
we propose lowering this portion of the outfield by approximately 1 foot 6 inches. The
entire outfield will not be lowered by the full 1 foot 6 inches, as the existing grade from right
field toward home plate is considerably less aggressive. Grades throughout the outfield
will be adjusted as necessary to create a more consistent and effective drainage pattern.
Following grading, the entire outfield will be resodded. A slight crown will be established
through the center portion of the field to promote positive surface drainage toward both
outside fence lines rather than directing runoff toward the infield.
As part of the rebuild, we will also shift the field approximately 7 feet toward the home
plate fence line. This adjustment will create additional usable outfield area and improve
the overall field layout.
Skin of Field
TLC Athletic Fields will excavate and remove the existing red diamond material down to the
underlying baseball mix.
We will then:
− Install approximately 15 tons of baseball mix.
− Fine-grade the infield skin to establish proper elevations and positive drainage.
− Compact the newly graded surface using a roller.
− Install approximately 15 tons of red diamond mix as the finished playing surface.
The completed infield skin will be graded and compacted to provide a consistent, durable,
and playable surface while improving drainage across the field.
Infield Grass
TLC Athletic Fields will excavate and remove the existing sod throughout the infield grass
and baseline areas. Unlike the outfield, significant lowering of the existing grades will not
be necessary in these areas.
Following removal of the existing turf, we will install fresh screened topsoil to establish the
proper finish grade. New sod will then be installed throughout the infield and baseline
areas in alignment with standard baseball field specifications.
French Drain
An existing French drain currently runs along the inside perimeter of the outfield fence.
Over time, we believe soil, sediment, and other fine material have accumulated over the
drainage system, reducing the ability of surface water to reach the drain effectively.
TLC Athletic Fields proposes removing the existing layer of accumulated dirt and stone
above the French drain and replacing it with clean drainage stone. This work will restore a
more direct path for surface water to enter the existing drainage system and should
significantly improve drainage along the perimeter of the outfield.
On Going Maintenance and Drainage Expectations
The proposed rebuild will significantly improve the drainage, playability, and overall
performance of the field. However, it is important to recognize that proper and consistent
maintenance will be necessary to protect this investment.
Baseball fields require ongoing maintenance throughout the playing season. This includes
repairing low areas, managing material buildup, maintaining turf health, keeping drainage
areas clear, and correcting wear caused by normal field use. Without regular maintenance,
even a properly constructed field can lose its intended grades and drainage patterns.
TLC Athletic Fields plans to work with Whitefish Bay Little League during the upcoming
winter offseason to develop a maintenance plan for the entire park. Our goal will be to
establish recommended procedures and maintenance schedules that will help the League
protect the fields.
It is also important to understand that this project will greatly improve drainage conditions
but will not completely eliminate water moving across the field during significant rainfall
events. There is a natural elevation change throughout the surrounding area. During heavy
or prolonged rain, water from higher elevations will continue to move through portions of
the property and across the field. Completely eliminating that runoff would require
substantially larger park wide drainage and grading improvements beyond the scope of this
project.
The proposed work is intended to reduce the severity of the existing drainage problems,
slow and redirect surface water where possible, and provide a significantly better playing
surface. Proper ongoing maintenance will be an important part of preserving these
improvements long term.
Total Project Cost: $39,575 Plus Tax

Memo to: President Kevin Buckley and the Village Board of Trustees
From: Matthew Collins, Director of Public Works
Re: Buckley Park Stormwater Improvement Recommendations
Over the last five years, the Village has completed several key stormwater utility, green infrastructure, and ecological stew ardship
projects to manage runoff, enhance biodiversity, and improve water quality to Lake Michigan and the Milwaukee River.
Improvements included:
• Permeable Paver Parking Lot & Alleys (2021–2027): The Village integrated permeable paver systems into several public
alleys and municipal parking lots to minimize runoff and promote natural ground infiltration.
• Library Park Arboretum (2025–2026): The Village re-imagined the green space at Library Park to create an educational
arboretum highlighting tree and shrub biodiversity.
• Klode Park Beach & Bluff Stabilization (2024–2025): To manage severe beachfront erosion, the Village installed a 100-
linear-foot Regenerative Stormwater Conveyance (RSC) system, two bioswales, and ecological restoration of the bluff.
• Craig Counsell Park Drainage Improvements (2024–2025): The Village removed deteriorated red granite spectator
pathways and replaced them with porous asphalt and permeable pavers.
• Wilson Drive & Fire Station #84 Reconstruction (2022–2023): Wilson Drive: Installed 5 biofiltration basins, bioswales, and
porous pavement to treat roadway runoff. Fire Station #84: Installed 8, porous pavement, bioswales, and a native rain
garden to filter on-site station runoff.
• Consaul Commons Plaza (2021–2022): Incorporated permeable paving and rain gardens designed with native and adapted
plants to absorb and filter urban stormwater runoff.
• Village Hall Parking Lot Biofilter (2021): Biofilter basin was constructed to collect and treat stormwater runoff from the
municipal parking lot.
• Big Bay & Buckley Park Outfall Restoration (2024–2026): Following an emergency collapse of the critical 54-inch storm
sewer outfall, the Village executed a design-build rehabilitation. A collaborative county parkland tree-replanting program
was completed by early 2026 to stabilize the surrounding bluff.
• Annual Ecological Maintenance Program (Ongoing): To ensure compliance with stormwater quality requirements, the
Village approved a growing-season ecological agreement. This program finances monthly professional care—including
invasive species weeding, native overseeding, and inlet/outlet clearing within public natural areas, including Wilson Drive,
Klode Park, and the DPW facility.
Continued efforts evaluate creative ways for the Village to manage public spaces that benefit residents and visitors while also
evaluating long-term sustainable solutions to improve the urban ecology and stormwater management to the community. Following
the completion of the Big Bay and Buckley Park storm sewer rehabilitation, there is a desire to make improvements to the bluff to
support the reintroduction of native species to help stabilize the bluff and improve stormwater management to the park and La ke
Michigan shoreline. Residents and the public have expressed a desire to remove existing vegetation from the bluff to improve
sightlines to the lake. Village staff and the Village engineer is hesitant to continue past practices of removing vegetation annually due
to staff safety as well as risk of erosion to the bluff. Buckley Park had historic bluff erosion in 1966 as shown in the attached photos.
It will be important that any work performed within the Lake Michigan bluff area is done in a manner that will prevent any further
risk of erosion.
Native Range Ecological (NRE) is an ecological firm that assisted the Village with developing the Klode Park ecological restoration
project design and the Vegetative Management Plan. Village staff requested NRE’s assistance with developing a scope of service for
Buckley Park to reintroduce native vegetation from top of bluff to the first portion of the switchback path of Buckley Park that will
help improve sightlines, remove invasive species, and support stormwater management. The attached proposal includes a site
survey and restoration plan that the Village can use to transition to implementation of restoration activities. If approved, the plan
can commence in 2026 with anticipated project construction efforts in 2027. Due to existing invasive species that will need to be
removed and controlled, this project will be a multi-year effort to not only reintroduce natives, but also commit the village to annual
maintenance to selectively remove invasive species and support the native species. The total anticipated project cost is
approximately $40,000 over a three-to-four-year period with funds to be used from the Stormwater Utility reserve balance.
On 9/14/26, the Public Works Committee discussed and gave the recommendation to the V illage Board to approve the contract with
Native Range Ecological.
Public Works Committee Recommends to the Village Board:
To approve the Native Range Ecological proposal for Buckley Park bluff improvements in the amount of $9,230 as shown within the
memo and attached exhibits.

Proposal 26051 – Buckley Park Upper Bluff Restoration Plan
Mr. Collins,
Native Range Ecological, LLC (NRE) is pleased to provide the Village of Whitefish Bay with this proposal
to develop a Restoration Plan for the Upper Bluff at Buckley Park.
Project Scope
Whitefish Bay residents have voiced concern s over the viewshed barrier of invasive shrubs and trees
near the crest of the coastal Lake Michigan bluff at Buckley Park (Park). The Park is located at 5000
North Lake Drive in Whitefish Bay, Wisconsin. A paved switchback walking path allows Park visitors
access to the beach. The Area of Interest (AOI) applicable to the proposed Restoration Plan is indicated
on Figure 1 (page 4). The AOI is approximately 0.5 acres and consists of the area from the crest of the
bluff to the first tier of the paved switchback path.
The Village of Whitefish Bay is interested in improving Park visitor experience by opening the viewshed
to the lake from the crest of the bluff, and in permanently stabilizing the AOI with deep -rooted
perennial native vegetation.
NRE proposed to develop a Restoration Plan for the AOI, which is intended to support an RFP to
implement NRE’s Plan.

Joel Oestrich – Director of Building Services
MEETING DATE: September 21, 2026
AGENDA ITEM: Proposed changes to permitted, conditional, and prohibited uses
and other standards in District 11 (Silver Spring Drive Business
District).
ACTION REQUESTED: __ Ordinance ___ Resolution ___ Motion ___Direction to Staff
BACKGROUND
In 2024, the Village Board adopted the 2024–2027 Strategic Plan, which identifies
evaluation of the permitted, conditional, and prohibited uses in District 11, the Silver
Spring Business District, as a strategic outcome. The review is intended to ensure that
the District 11 zoning framework supports the Village’s vision for an active, attractive,
and destination-oriented commercial district.
Strategic Plan Focus Group participants expressed interest in additional restaurants,
more first-floor retail uses rather than professional-service offices, and businesses that
attract visitors from outside the community. Participants also identified interest in a
boutique hotel. Village Board members also identified drive-through facilities and
building-height standards as areas for further consideration.
At the June 15 Village Board meeting, staff provided a high-level overview of the
existing District 11 use framework, including hotels; restaurants and dining
establishments; first-floor retail; drive-through facilities; and building height. The Village
Board requested feedback from the Community Development Authority and Plan
Commission before the matter returned to the Village Board for consideration of
amendments to the District 11 zoning regulations.
The Community Development Authority reviewed potential District 11 amendments at its
July 14 and August 18 meetings. The Plan Commission considered the District 11
review at its July 21 meeting.
Across these discussions, the CDA and Plan Commission considered how District 11
regulations could better promote an active, pedestrian-oriented commercial
environment; strengthen first-floor retail opportunities; accommodate appropriate
redevelopment and reinvestment; and maintain development standards consistent with
the intended character of the Silver Spring Business District. The feedback received
through these discussions has informed the amendments now proposed for Village
Board consideration.
SUMMARY OF PROPOSED AMENDMENTS
The proposed amendments to the District 11 regulations would:
• Add bookstores as a permitted use.
• Permit interior-design uses on the first floor only when retail sales are part of the
operation; otherwise, allow interior-design uses only on the second floor.
• Clarify that conditional uses not expressly listed in the District 11 regulations are
prohibited.
• Revise three-story or 42 feet buildings to be stepback and allow an aggregate of
the front and rear stepback.
• Limit future financial institution uses while allowing existing to be improved,
reconstructed, or rebuilt. The amendment would also establish a 12-month re-
establishment period for an existing financial institution use.
RECOMMENDED ACTION BY THE VILLAGE BOARD
Staff recommends the Village Board refer an ordinance to amend Municipal
Code § 16-21C(1)(a), § 16-21C(1)(b), § 16-21C(2), § 16-21C(3), § 16-21C(5)
and 16-21E(4)(b)[2] pertaining to permitted, conditional, and prohibited uses
and other standards in District 11 (Silver Spring Drive Business District) to
the Plan Commission to review and subject to Village Planner and Village
Attorney review.

Memo to: President Kevin Buckley and the Village Board of Trustees
From: Maxine Miller, Staff Engineer
Re: Klode Park Warming House Design Update
On August 7th, 2023, the Village Board and Public Works Committee adopted the 2024 - 2028 Comprehensive
Outdoor Recreation Plan (CORP). The CORP created the framework for the Village to develop a strategic plan
to optimize outdoor park and recreation spaces which was then integrated into the Village Board’s adopted
2026 – 2031 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). The Village Board approved $1.5 million in 2027 as part of this
plan to replace the Klode Park Warming House.
On July 20th, 2026, the Village Board approved the release of a public survey about the initial design ideas for
the new Warming House at Klode Park. The survey featured two warming house layout options with graphic
renderings. It gathered public opinion regarding the designed layout, style, functionality, building materials,
and more. On August 31
st, 2026, the GROTH Design Group presented the results from the public survey to the
Village Board and identified common themes seen in the community’s responses.
Once the results of the public survey were presented to the Village Board, the GROTH architectural team
noted all design changes in alignment with the recommendations from the trustees. The GROTH team then
updated the design layout to incorporate the recommended changes. This included the addition of a family
restroom amongst other changes.
The design concepts shown in the attachment include three options for the bandshell placement within the
park. The renderings also include one larger pavilion that is beyond the project’s currently approved budget. If
additional funding were secured through donations, the larger pavilion could be considered as an addition to
the project. The renderings also show how a smaller pavilion would look in alignment with the building and
rotated towards the open viewing area. For each pavilion location option, GROTH also prepared a map
showing the amount of public viewing area that could be accommodated around the pavilion.
If there is interest in proceeding with the donor-funded bandshell, additional design costs will be required to
further develop the concept.
The next step in the design process is to review the proposed changes for Village Board approval. The design
team would like Village Board input on the items below:
• Preference regarding the dark wood or soft stone building materials
• Placement of the pavilion in the park
• Direction for the larger, donor funded pavilion option, including if the Board would like to bid both
options
• Final confirmation on the building configuration, including the addition of the family restroom
Once this direction is provided, Groth will prepare the final design for Architectural Review Commission
consideration. They will also begin preparing construction documents to bid the project in early January.

VILLAGE BOARD MEETING – STAFF REPORT
REPORT TO: Village Board
REPORT FROM: Kelsey McElroy-Anderson, Village Manager
MEETING DATE: September 21, 2026
AGENDA ITEM: Silver Spring Parking Meters and Employee Permit Parking
ACTION REQUESTED: _____Ordinance _____Resolution __√____Motion _____Information Only
PARKING METER BACKGROUND
The Village currently operates parking meters in and around the Silver Spring Drive business
district. The meters were installed in 2019 at a cost of approximately $83,000. The parking meter
system generates approximately $55,000 in annual revenue, while the Village's annual operating
costs are approximately $34,000.
POM Incorporated has historically provided the Village's parking meter equipment and related
services. In December 2025, POM announced that the company was being sold and that it would be
winding down its services. At that time, customers were advised that products and services would
continue to be available through a new company.
Since that announcement, the Village has continued to receive service from POM; however, staff has
experienced slower response times and a decline in the level of service. Most recently, staff
attempted to purchase replacement batteries for the meters and did not receive a response, which
has left several meters inoperable.
On August 18, 2026, POM provided formal notice that it will cease operations as of October 1, 2026.
POM's letter states that, after October 1, MeterManager and POMPay will no longer be operational
and wireless service for the meters will be discontinued. The meters will continue to accept coins
and operate under the rate schedule currently programmed into the meters, but they will no longer
have online access or the ability to accept card or mobile payments. Additionally, parts such as
batteries will no longer be available.
BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT RECOMMENDATION
In response to the uncertainty surrounding the parking meter system, Village staff requested input
from the Whitefish Bay Business Improvement District (BID).
At its August 7, 2026 meeting, the BID reviewed current parking conditions and future parking
needs in the business district (District 11). The BID noted that business activity continues to
increase. The BID also observed that evening events at The Argo have not created a material
parking impact on Silver Spring Drive and that existing street capacity remains adequate for
Page 2 of 5
customers. Its primary concern is the limited availability of long-term parking for employees.
The BID unanimously recommended that the Village:
• Remove the parking meters in and around the business district and replace them with
posted two-hour customer parking. The cost of maintaining the meter infrastructure does
not appear justified by the revenue generated, and posted limits should continue to support
turnover.
• Evaluate selected side-street spaces for dual use: up to 10 hours for permitted employee
vehicles and two hours for vehicles without a permit.
During the September BID meeting there was continued interest in removing the parking meters.
There was new discussion about the possibility of transitioning to one hour parking on Silver
Spring in 2027 to further deter employees from parking on Silver Spring and to improve access for
customers.
PARKING METER OPTIONS
With POM's October 1 shutdown, the Village has an immediate decision regarding the future of the
parking meter system.
Option 1: Continue the Parking Meter System
Staff has spoken with the City of Milwaukee, which is working on a solution that could allow the
continued use of an app for payment in addition to coins. The Village could also explore this option.
Continuing the system could allow the Village to maintain the existing parking regulations and
revenue structure without implementing a new parking program for a short period. However, the
Village would need to explore alternative options because this is likely only a temporary solution.
The costs associated with this option are currently unknown, as discussions with the City of
Milwaukee have just begun.
Option 2: Remove the Meter Heads, cap the poles, and Conduct a 60-Day Pilot
The Village could remove the parking meter heads, cap the pole, and implement a 60-day pilot
beginning October 1, 2026. The existing parking restrictions (1-hour, 2-hour, or 10-hour) would
remain the same for all parking spaces.
The cost for this option would be approximately $500 for caps for the 80-meter poles. After the six-
month pilot there would be an additional $1,000 in anticipated expenditure for permanent signage.
The 60-day pilot would provide an opportunity to evaluate how parking conditions change without
meters before making a permanent decision.
Option 3: Remove the Meter Poles and Transition a Portion into Bike Racks
The Village could remove the meter poles and install bike racks in their place. This would eliminate
Page 3 of 5
the option to reinstall parking meters in the future but would provide additional bike parking along
Silver Spring. The Village could still pursue kiosk-based parking payments in the future if there is a
desire to return to paid parking along Silver Spring; however, this option would require further
research. This is the preferred option for BID as they would like a visible change that the meters are
removed.
The cost would be approximately $1,000 for permanent signage, plus the cost of bike racks, which
are approximately $300 per bike rack. There are currently 80 meter poles and 43 of those are on
Silver Spring, so the total cost would depend on the number of poles converted to bike racks. If the
Village converted half of the poles on Silver Spring to bike racks the cost would be approximately
$6,600.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
The Village currently receives approximately $55,000 annually in parking meter revenue and
incurs approximately $34,000 annually in operating costs, resulting in approximately $21,000 in
net annual revenue before considering the original capital investment.
The Village invested approximately $83,000 in 2019 to install the parking meters.
If the meters are removed, the Village would forgo approximately $55,000 in annual meter revenue.
The Village would, however, also eliminate the approximately $34,000 in annual operating costs
associated with the system. The net annual operating fiscal impact would be approximately
$21,000.
PARKING ENFORCEMENT
It is important to consider that parking enforcement is more efficient with parking meters. With
meters, the Community Service Officer (CSO) only needs to drive by a vehicle once to determine
whether a citation should be issued. Without meters, the CSO must generally make two passes: one
to chalk the tire and a second to determine whether the vehicle is in violation.
There is software that can automate this process through license plate recognition; however, the
annual cost of this software in the Village of Shorewood is approximately $20,000.
Staff has discussed this enforcement consideration with the BID, and the BID did not raise concerns
with the proposed change. Staff would, however, like to emphasize this issue with the Board.
Maintaining the current level of parking enforcement without meters would likely require
approximately twice the amount of staff time. As a result, significantly enhanced enforcement in the
future could present staffing challenges or require additional resources.

Page 4 of 5
The BID has also requested adjustments to employee permit parking. Their concern is that
employee parking is limited and there is a need for additional options. Without parking meters on
Silver Spring, employees may be more likely to park on Silver Spring and move their vehicles
periodically. The BID would prefer to provide additional employee parking options to encourage
employees to use designated long-term parking areas rather than parking on Silver Spring. For this
reason, the BID would like employee parking and parking meters to be considered together.
The southbound side of the street in the highlighted areas in Attachment C could be considered for
additional employee parking. This includes allowing employee permit parking for 10 hours
between the alley and Birch Avenue on Bay Ridge, Kent, Shoreland, Santa Monica, Berkeley,
Diversey and Hollywood as well as on Consaul between the Beaumont alley and Lake View. The
logic behind offering this many streets is to hopefully dilute the number of vehicles parked on any
given street at one time.
The proposal would maintain the underlying parking restriction in each highlighted area, whether
one-hour or two-hour unmetered parking, while providing an exception for employees with a valid
Village employee parking permit. Of note, daytime parking permits are currently offered at no cost
to residents living on these blocks with restrictions. This would continue.
Under this approach, members of the general public would continue to be subject to the posted
one-hour or two-hour parking restriction. Employees with a valid employee parking permit would
be permitted to park in the designated areas for up to 10 hours.
The Village currently utilizes employee parking permits to provide long-term parking opportunities
for employees of the Silver Spring Business District. These permits are provided at no charge, and
employees may obtain a permit by completing an application through the Whitefish Bay Police
Department. A permit is not a general authorization to park without restriction throughout the
business district; rather, it authorizes long-term parking only in designated locations and must be
properly displayed.
Currently, designated 10 hour permit parking locations include:
• Beaumont Place Public Parking Garage (66 spaces)
• East Beaumont Avenue (22 spaces)
• Marlborough lot south of Winkie’s (15 spaces)
• Silver Spring 10 hour metered parking by Dominican High School (17 spaces)
The current number of designated employee permit parking spaces is 120. The total number of
currently issued employee parking permits is 495. Employee parking permits are issued for two
years.
There is currently limited data regarding employee parking demand, including whether demand is
concentrated in specific areas or at certain times of day. For this reason, staff recommends a 60-day
trial of the BID’s request, with the potential for a 60-day extension. Staff began collecting data on
the number of cars parked on these blocks on September 17th and will continue collecting data
throughout the trial. Staff will also document concerns raised by neighbors, employees, and
businesses.
Page 5 of 5
This topic would then be brought back to the December 7th, Board meeting for formal
consideration. If additional time is needed to evaluate the data, staff could recommend extending
the trial to the February 1, 2027, Board meeting for further analysis.
There are no costs associated with the trial period. If the changes are implemented on a permanent
basis, new signage would need to be installed at an estimated cost of approximately $1,500.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends Option 2 for the parking meters and that the Village conduct a 60-day trial
beginning October 1, 2026 for employee permit parking as shown in Attachment C.
Under the proposed pilot, staff would:
1. Remove the parking meter heads and cap the poles in and around the business district.
2. Post temporary parking signage in metered areas.
3. Allow employee permit parking in the areas marked in Attachment C.
4. Collect parking data for additional analysis after the 60-day trial.
5. Return to the Village Board on December 7
th with an evaluation and recommendation
regarding the permanent parking configuration or consider extending for an additional 60
days if more data and analysis is needed.
The pilot would allow the Village to evaluate the BID's recommendation based on actual parking
conditions rather than making an immediate permanent change. It would also provide an
opportunity to determine whether the loss of parking meters has a meaningful impact on parking
behavior or business district needs.
If there is a desire to implement these changes on a permanent basis, staff recommends additional
consideration of the following:
• Reduce the employee permit parking period from two years to one year.
• Transition from mirror hangers to stickers for employee permit parking.
• Consider a fee for employee parking. The Village of Shorewood charges an annual fee of $30
for a daytime parking permits, which employees are eligible to receive. The Village
currently charges $30 per month for overnight permit parking.
REQUESTED ACTION
Direct the Police Chief to use Ordinance 6-45 to implement the following temporary parking
regulations:
• Convert metered parking to unmetered parking with the same hourly restrictions.
• Allow 10-hour employee permit parking in the areas marked in Attachment C.

Dear POM Customer,
POM will cease operations as of October 1, 2026, after which MeterManager and POMPay will no longer be
operational and wireless service for your meters will be discontinued. Your meters will still accept coins and
will run whatever rate schedule is currently in place, but will lose online access and the ability to accept
payment by card or mobile push. If you are a monthly customer, your bill will run through October 1. If you
are a yearly customer and would like a prorated refund, please contact us in writing. Please download all data
you intend to retain prior to October 1, as it will not be available following that date.
My family has owned POM since 1981. My father ran it until he passed away in 2013 and I have run it since on
behalf of the owner — my mom. Following her passing last month, my sister and I are left with the unenviable
task of winding down her affairs, including POM. We have tried for several years to sell POM but have been
unable to find a buyer in the age of mobile payments, which only accelerated after the pandemic.
Thank you for your continued business and support. Many of you have become like family over the years and I
will certainly miss speaking with you on a regular basis.
Very truly yours,
POM INCORPORATED

MEMORANDUM To: Kelsey McElroy, Village Manager From: Charlie Stallé, President, and Alexis Deblitz, Executive Director Whitefish Bay Business Improvement District Date: August 7, 2026 Subject: Business District Parking Recommendation Action: Village staff evaluation and proposed six-month pilot Background The Whitefish Bay business district continues to gain activity and momentum, including the successful opening of The Argo and the approaching completion of Sendik's. In anticipation of increased customer and employee parking demand, the BID reviewed current conditions and parking options at its August 7, 2026 meeting. The BID observed that evening events at The Argo have not created a material parking impact on Silver Spring Drive and that current street capacity remains adequate. The primary ongoing concern is the limited availability of long-term parking for employees. BID Recommendation The BID unanimously recommends that the Village: • Remove the parking meters in and around the business district and replace them with posted two-hour customer parking. The cost of maintaining the meter infrastructure does not appear justified by the revenue generated, and posted limits should continue to support turnover. • Evaluate selected side-street spaces for dual use: up to 10 hours for permitted employee vehicles and two hours for vehicles without a permit. Requested Next Step The BID requests that Village staff identify appropriate side-street locations; evaluate permit requirements, enforcement, timing, costs, and potential neighborhood impacts; and return a proposed implementation plan for review by the Community Development Authority and Village Board. The plan should include a six-month pilot and measurable criteria for evaluating parking turnover, employee use, business needs, and neighborhood impact. We appreciate the Village's partnership and consideration of this recommendation.

MEETING DATE: September 21, 2026
AGENDA ITEM: Employee Benefits Working Group Feedback and Management Team
Recommendations
ACTION REQUESTED: ____Ordinance ____ Resolution ____ Motion ____ Direction to Staff
BACKGROUND
The Village’s 2024 Strategic Plan established a goal of becoming a workplace of excellence,
with a desired outcome of a satisfied and engaged workforce. During the strategic planning
process, staff identified recruitment as an increasing challenge, noting that vacancies were
taking longer to fill.
Over the past two years, recruitment challenges have continued, along with employee retention
challenges. The Village has experienced employees leaving for positions offering more
competitive compensation and benefits. Additionally, employees have approached Management
Team with requests for changes to benefits, which should be considered and weighed together.
In response to these challenges, and to employee ideas regarding potential changes to the
Village’s benefits package, the Village established an Employee Benefits Working Group.
The Employee Benefits Working Group was charged with reviewing and evaluating the Village’s
current employee benefits and identifying potential benefit changes in the following cost
categories:
• No/low-cost options: $0 to $3,000
• Medium-cost options: $3,000 to $10,000
• High-cost options: $10,000 to $40,000
The Employee Benefits Working Group evaluated options based on their potential to support
recruitment, retention, employee well-being, equitable outcomes across departments, and long-
term fiscal sustainability. The group was also asked to identify existing benefits that may provide
insufficient value relative to their cost and to recommend potential modifications or eliminations,
where appropriate.
The Employee Benefits Working Group included eight employees representing all Village
departments. Assistant Village Manager Anna Christopherson and Finance Director Jaimie
Krueger facilitated the group’s discussions.
Following the Employee Benefits Working Group’s review of benefits and voting, the
Management Team also evaluated the identified benefit options and completed a voting
exercise. The full voting analysis is attached.
No/Low Cost ($0-$3,000)
The Employee Benefits Working Group saw high value in a holiday, employee recognition, and
volunteer/poll worker leave. The Management Team saw high value in recognizing Juneteenth
as a Village holiday, providing holiday pay within 30 days of hire, and implementing summer
hours.
Recommendations
Employee Recognition
The Village would recognize employees on their work anniversaries through a newsletter
acknowledgement and a small token of appreciation. This initiative would provide a consistent
and visible method of recognizing employee service and contributions. Staff is starting to
implement this recommendation.
Juneteenth
Begin recognizing Juneteenth as a holiday. This would provide employees with one additional
paid holiday and advance equity within the Village’s employee benefit package.
The budget impact is expected to be minimal, although there may be limited costs associated
with emergency Department of Public Works call-outs. This is because the Village would not
backfill for holidays outside of emergencies so no overtime or additional salaries are applicable.
The opportunity cost is $9,320 because this is the value of the fewer staff working hours in the
year. The Police Department staffing and compensation impacts would be governed by the
applicable collective bargaining agreement.
Other North Shore Communities that observe Juneteenth: Brown Deer, Glendale, and
Shorewood.
Summer Hours & DPW No Lunch
Implementing summer hours for Village Hall employees from the week following Memorial Day
through the week preceding Labor Day. Under this approach, Village Hall would close to the
public at noon on Fridays, while employees would continue to work a 40-hour workweek.
Employees could either:
• Work their regular schedule and continue working Friday afternoon while Village Hall is
closed to the public; or
• Adjust their weekday schedules by working an additional hour Monday through Thursday
and conclude work at noon on Fridays.
This provides an opportunity to work on focused projects or tasks for our front office employees
during their working hours when Village Hall is closed.
Front-desk staff have tracked customer traffic during Friday afternoons. To date, the average
number of customers served during that period is approximately four. For comparison, this
accounts for 7% of all visits during the summer.
Implementing a no-lunch schedule for DPW employees would result in a revised end-of-day
schedule, changing the current end time from 3:15 p.m. to 2:45 p.m. The scheduled start time
would remain unchanged at 6:45 a.m.
Under this schedule, DPW employees would continue to be required to take two paid 15-minute
breaks during the workday. Employees would have the option of utilizing either of their
designated 15-minute breaks to eat their lunch. They would still have the option to take an
unpaid lunch and conclude their day at 3:15. This adjustment would maintain the required break
periods while allowing employees to conclude their workday 30 minutes earlier if they don’t take
a lunch break.
Both Summer Hours & DPW No Lunch would be a trial period from Memorial Day to Labor Day
in 2027.
Other North Shore Communities that have summer hours: Bayside, Glendale, Fox Point, and
Shorewood. Bayside, Fox Point, and Shorewood have summer hours all year round.

Holiday Pay within 30 Days of Hire
This would allow newly hired employees to receive holiday pay within 30 days of hire, which
currently is not allowed. The approximate cost of this would be less than $1,000.
Other North Shore Communities that have holiday pay within 30 days of hire: Bayside, Brown
Deer, Glendale, Fox Point, River Hills and Shorewood.
Medium Cost ($3,000-$10,000)
The Employee Benefits Working Group saw high value in Vacation Carryover, Memberships,
and Employee Recognition.
Management Team saw value in Lateral Transfer Benefits, and Starting Vacation Advances.
Both the Employee Benefits Working Group and Management Team saw high value in
EAP/Wellness Check-in.
Recommendations
EAP/Wellness Check-in
An employee assistance program is a common resource that municipalities provide to their
employees. The program provides employees and their families with short-term counseling,
assessments, and referrals for personal or work-related problems. An EAP can also be a helpful
supervisory tool, providing employees with additional support and resources when workplace or
performance concerns arise. The cost of implementing an EAP is approximately $3,100.
Other North Shore Communities: Bayside, Brown Deer, Glendale and Shorewood.
Employee Recognition
Reevaluate how the existing $3,000 in the Employee Events budget line under Village Board is
spent. Currently, the funds are for an annual holiday meal for all staff and any retirements or
departures of staff celebrations. Specifically, the funds could be used for employee recognition
for national department weeks and for annual all staff training. The approximate cost is an
additional $500 (1 holiday meal and 5 lower cost meals plus any raffles for gift cards).
Lateral Transfer
Recruitment has been challenging for both Administration and DPW staff due to the inability to
negotiate pay for DPW employees and vacation for both DPW and Admin employees. In
particular, the current DPW step structure creates difficulties when recruiting new employees
who have relevant, direct experience. Even when a candidate is highly qualified and brings
significant experience to the position, they are required to start at the beginning of the DPW pay
scale and with 10 vacation days (prorated for the first partial and full year of employment).
Allowing the ability to negotiate placement within the pay steps and vacation days based on a
candidate’s prior experience and qualifications would make recruitment more competitive and
help attract experienced applicants
The approximate budget impact is $6,000 to adjust existing employees based on prior
experience. There are also long-term budget impacts as new employees are hired at higher
steps.
Starting Vacation Advances
Currently, new hires receive prorated vacation days (5 days prorated) upon starting with the
Village and continue to accrue vacation throughout their first year of employment. Employees do
not receive their full annual vacation allotment until January of their second full year with the
Village. Below is an example of an individual with a July 1 start date.
July 1 start date
Year 0 20 hours
Year 1 60 hours
Year 2 80 hours
Under the proposed change, employees would receive their full annual vacation allotment
upfront beginning January 1 following their hire date regardless of whether they have completed
one full year of employment with the Village. Their vacation would be prorated in the first partial
year.
This change would provide a more straightforward, and easily understood approach to vacation
administration with allowing employees to have their full vacation benefit available at the
beginning of each calendar year. This would also significantly help with recruitment as many
new hires and prospects in the past two years have expressed concern about this policy.
If an employee were to leave and use more vacation than they had earned in the calendar year
they would have to payback the Village from their final paycheck.
Other North Shore Communities:
Brown Deer – prorated at start, if employee leaves before end of their first six months then have
to repay fully, and becomes fully available at employee’s anniversary date.
Shorewood – prorated at start and then becomes fully available at year 1.
High Cost ($10,000-$40,000)
Both the Employee Benefits Working Group and Management Team saw high value in
increasing vacation and a comprehensive wage study.
Vacation
Increasing the number of days as well as adjusting the steps in years of service for vacation.
Compared to the other north shore communities, the Village’s step increases are delayed with
vacation increases happening further apart and not as competitive in terms of the number of
days. Below is a breakdown between current vacation for general employees and other North
Shore communities. The proposal is similar to what the Library employees already receive. The
approximate opportunity cost for implementation in 2027 is $13,630 as this is the value of the
time the employee would be off who would otherwise be working. The budget impact is very
limited as the majority of positions aren’t backfilled and would not require overtime to offset the
time off.
Comprehensive Wage Study
A comprehensive wage study would provide wage scales (min, mid, and max) for positions as
well as show wages of positions as they relate to the market. Whitefish Bay does not currently
have an employee pay scale. Recruitment and retention of employees would be positively
impacted by a comprehensive wage study because it would help identify positions that are
below market rate and also any above. The cost of a comprehensive wage study would be
approximately $21,000 which could be paid for with Innovation Grant Funds because it would be

Purpose
The Employee Benefits Working Group is established to review and evaluate current
employee benefits and to identify a set of no/low-cost, medium-cost, and high-cost benefit
options that support recruitment, retention, employee well-being, equitable outcomes
across departments, and fiscal sustainability.
The group is also charged with identifying
existing benefits that do not provide sufficient value or are very costly and recommending
potential modifications or eliminations.
Scope of work
The Working Group will:
• Review existing employee benefit offerings and major gaps compared to
organizational goals and peers, with specific attention to how benefits are
experienced across different departments and employee groups.
• Identify potential benefit enhancements and reductions across four cost tiers: cost
reduction, no/low-cost, medium-cost, and high-cost options. The Village of Whitefish
Bay has reached levy limits and must be extremely mindful of all cost increases. This
understanding must be central in all discussions as we are working in a zero sum
game environment.
• Assess options using agreed criteria such as employee impact, equity across
departments and classifications, fiscal impact, administrative complexity, and
alignment with strategic priorities.
• Prioritize benefits into recommended phases based on cost, impact, and equity.
• Prepare a concise written recommendation, including suggested next steps for
implementation and communication to the Village Board.
This working group will not focus on base wages, classification systems, or collective
bargaining agreements beyond benefits-related proposals.
Deliverables
By the end the Working Group will produce a recommendation of potential benefit changes
categorized as cost reduction, no/low-cost, medium-cost, and high-cost options.
Membership
Membership will include a mix of employees that reflects a range of departments, job
functions, and classifications so the group can evaluate benefit options through an equity
lens across the organization.
Members are expected to attend meetings regularly, review materials in advance,
participate actively in discussions, and help ensure that recommendations consider
impacts across departments and employee groups.
Decision-making and operating norms
• The Working Group will use dot voting as its primary method for prioritizing benefit
options, with each member allocated an equal number of votes to distribute among
the options under consideration.
• Recommendations will be based on the outcomes of the Working Group's dot-voting
exercises and related discussion.
• The group will strive for consensus informed by dot-voting results; when full
consensus is not possible, it may move forward with majority-supported options
while documenting significant dissenting views.
• In all prioritization exercises, members will explicitly consider equity across
departments and classifications and will be encouraged to explain how their votes
reflect that lens.
• Each meeting will begin with a brief recap of key discussion points, decisions, and
action items from the previous meeting so members can confirm shared
understanding.
• The group will operate in a transparent, respectful manner, encouraging input from all
members and considering impacts across employee groups.
• Meeting notes and materials will be maintained by the Assistant Village Manager and
shared with members.
Reporting
The Working Group members will report progress periodically to their respective
departments and the Assistant Village Manager will report progress to the Management
Team. The final recommendation will be shared with the Village Board. The Village Board
retains final decision-making authority on any benefit changes.
Meeting schedule
The Employee Benefits Working Group will meet every two weeks beginning Thursday, June
11, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. The proposed schedule is:
• Meeting 1: Thursday, June 11, 2026, 9:00-10:00 a.m.
