Additionally, PTS Contractors is increasing the width of the intersection north of CTH H and CTH E. The Village is actively coordinating with the Canadian Pacific Railroad to schedule their flaggers to bore beneath the tracks. • The May Plan Commission meeting was canceled as applicants withdrew their item from the agenda. • Invenergy: met with their team to discuss the annexation process, water diversion requirements, and the PSC application process. The Village submitted a draft development agreement that is under their review. We plan to reconvene in June. • Truck Country: also met with their team to discuss the annexation process, and water diversion requirements. Baxter & Woodman is working with them to prepare the diversion application. The annexation petition is expected to be received shortly, and will require action by the Village Board. • Eagle Chateau: following approval by the Village Board, Village staff submitted a draft development agreement. The main purpose is to ensure stormwater requirements are completed and continued maintenance. Staff will confirm that the developer has contacted the DNR to determine if a permit is required. 2 • Maplecrest: Following approval of the development agreement by the Board, the developer is working with Kenosha County Planning & Development on the next steps in the review and approval process. Pending authorization, the Developer plans to construct a model home to market to prospective buyers. • On May 20, staff held a Public Information Meeting to answer residents’ questions ahead of the approved repaving of the ValleyView subdivision. The work is planned to start this month. • Administration • Village Administration has reviewed multiple options for the replacement of the Village/Town’s website. The plan is to select Catalis. One of their customers is the City of Beloit. The vendor’s website solution is both affordable and offers a user-friendly, easy-to-use platform. The Village is working with a third-party vendor to assist with the website design, and to create a video to promote the Village. • The Village is planning to launch a Facebook page. The intent will be to provide critical updates to the public, such as emergency notices (snowstorms, street closures, etc.), upcoming public works projects, and information about and Village services. Staff is reviewing the Village’s Social Media Policy and plans to recommend amendments at an upcoming work session meeting. • The Village is working with Kenosha County IT to setup an account with KnowBe4, which provides regular training and test phishing emails. Phishing emails are becoming increasing sophisticated, and create a significant vulnerability to the Village’s cybersecurity. The cost is $11.28/user/year, and would cover all Village email addresses. The total cost is approximately $600 per year to the Village. • The Village received an insurance dividend from the League of Wisconsin Municipalities in the amount of $17,689. This was due to lower than anticipated claims amongst 3 membership municipalities. • As required by the Public Services Commission, the Village is working with Ehlers to submit an application for a rate case. Under consideration is a PILOT (payment in lieu of taxes) and a fire protection fee. The items will be discussed with the Village Board at an upcoming special financial management plan (FMP) workshop, and would require approval before enacting any new fees. • On May 16, Village President Stoner held an open house for residents at the Somers Village Hall. • On May 19, Kenosha County Information Technology was on site to conduct an inventory of the computers used by Village staff. • Staff is reviewing funding options for the replacement and upgrade of the Pike Creek lift station. The project is TID eligible, but will require approval from the Joint Review Board. This item will also be discussed with the Board at the FMP workshop. • The Village met with the Town of Paris to discuss a formula for the revenue sharing agreement. The formula will be based on services provided within the Somers Growth Area, and require approval from the Intergovernmental Commission. • Met with Kenosha County IT to discuss upcoming projects. The contract is set to expire later this year. Additionally, Kenosha County IT will submit proposed updates to the Village’s Capital Improvement Plan. • Met with the new Village Prosecutor Christopher Schultz to discuss priorities, procedures, and coordination with Village staff. • Met with Schwab to discuss an expiring maturity and reinvest Village funds. • Met with a contractor to discuss security enhancements in the foyer / front counter of the Fire Station. The contractor will submit an estimate that will be presented to the Village Board. • On May 20, the Village sent out a new e-newsletter to just over 100 subscribers. You can find the current and past newsletters, as well as sign up for the e-newsletter here: https://www.somerswi.gov/newsletters/ • On May 21, Village President Stoner & Kevin Poirier toured the IEA plant located in Kenosha. The facility is in the process of moving to its new location at the corner of Highway E and the Interstate. • • On May 23, the Village President spoke at the Memorial Day ceremony at the Pritzker Military Museum & Library. The Somers Fire & Rescue Department participated in the Memorial Day service at Sunset Ridge Memorial Park’s cemetery. 4 • On May 31, Somers held its annual Community Day celebration. This year, it was held in the Sam’s Club parking lot. 5 TOWN OF SOMERS TOWN BOARD WORK SESSION ITEM MEMORANDUM WORK SESSION: June 2, 2026 TO: Town Chair Molinaro and Town Supervisors PREPARED BY: Kevin Poirier, Assistant Administrator AGENDA ITEM: #9 Discuss U.S. Department of Interior Consultation Notice Regarding Indian Gaming Regulatory Act for the Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin – Kenosha 2023 Gaming Project. For information purposes, the proposal is in the City of Kenosha. BACKGROUND: President Stoner received notice of a gaming land acquisition application filed by the Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin for a gaming facility with casino, hotel, retail, and convention facilities. The proposal is for 58.899 acres located west of I-94, south of CTH K in the City of Kenosha. This is not in Somers. However, the Town received the notice for input regarding impacts on surrounding areas, including environmental, economic, social, and concerns related to gaming and gambling. A list of all local government agencies in receipt of the notice is included. Deadlines 1) Public Comment period: April 27, 2026. Village Board members individually submitted several comments regarding concerns of public safety, impact on infrastructure, and services. 2) Consultation Notice: June 12, 2026. Given I was out of office, I requested an extension so the Village and Town Board have additional time to review the proposal and take collective action. For example, the letter and resolution adopted by the Village of Pleasant Prairie are included in the packet. SUGGESTED ACTION/ACTION REQUESTED/COMMENTS: If the Town Board, chooses, it could direct staff to follow the same 6 PRIOR ACTION TAKEN: This item was reviewed and discussed during the May 5 Town Board Work Session. At that time, the Town Board wanted to be in sync with the Village Board. That item is being discussed at the June 2 Village Board Work Session. If the Board wishes, this item will be placed on the Town Board meeting on June 9 for action. ATTACHMENTS: Draft Letter Draft Resolution 7 DATE HERE Thomas Wilkins Realty Specialist United States Department of the Interior Bureau of Indian Affairs Minneapolis Regional Office Norman Pointe II 5600 West American Boulevard, Suite 500 Bloomington, MN 55437 Re: Comments and Objection to Section 151 Request to Acquire Land in Trust for Gaming for the Proposed Menominee Indian Tribe Hard Rock Casino Project proposed to be located in Kenosha, Wisconsin Dear Mr. Wilkins, On behalf of the Village & Town of Somers ( “Somers”), we submit these comments in response to the Bureau of Indian Affairs notice regarding the request of the Menominee Indian Tribe to acquire the subject property in trust for gaming purposes. According to the U.S. Department of Interior Bureau of Indian Affairs (“BIA”) letter, Case Number 50694, the subject property (the “Property”), consists of four (4) parcels (Tax Parcel Numbers: 03-121-01-101-101, 03-121-01-101-102, 03-121- 01-101-422 and 03-121- 01-101-0423), of approximately 59 acres in total land area, and is generally located in the southwest quadrant of I-94 and County Trunk Highway K in the City of Kenosha, Wisconsin. Background Somers respectfully objects to the proposed acquisition of the Property for the development of the Menominee Indian Tribe Hard Rock Casino Project (the “Project”) and requests that the BIA fully consider the substantial adverse impacts to Somers that are reasonably foreseeable from the Project. Somers is adjacent to the City of Kenosha and the Project site is in close proximity to the municipal boundary of the Village & Town. Particularly, the site is directly across from the Town of Somers at 120th Avenue (E Frontage Road) and 60th Avenue, which includes Ukes Harley Davidson, a popular destination with a 3,000-square-foot museum of vintage bikes, a 70-foot display tower, and a 60,000-square-foot facility. Somers will experience the following negative environmental, social and economic impacts: 8 • The stormwater study should consider impacts of increased runoff on the Pleasant Prairie Mobile Home Park (11703 60TH ST), which is in the Town of Somers. Somers is concerned that existing flooding issues will be exacerbated by the development. • Increased traffic on Somers roadways and to the overall (and regional) transportation systems. Given there is no gas station near the Highway 158 exit in Kenosha, the closest options north of the proposed site for gas and convenience stores along the I-94 corridor will be at Hwy S/142 and Hwy E in Somers. • Increased use of Somers roadways will result in greater calls for public safety services, and strain funding for roadway maintenance. • Overall negative effect on social and socio-economic costs to the overall community. At the same time, Somers is not a party to the intergovernmental agreements that were described three (3) years ago in 2023 for the City of Kenosha and the County of Kenosha and Somers is not positioned to receive revenue sharing or other direct offsets to cover the increased costs and risks that would be imposed on our community. If this project moves forward, then we urge the revenue sharing agreement to be expanded to include the Village & Town of Somers. Information Requested by the BIA To the extent the BIA requests specific fiscal and service information, the Village provides the following. • Annual property taxes currently levied on the subject property allocated to Somers. The Property is located in the jurisdiction of the City of Kenosha. Somers levies no taxes on the Property. • Special assessments currently assessed against the property in support of Somers. The Property is located in the jurisdiction of the City of Kenosha. Somers has no special assessments assessed against the Property. • Governmental services currently provided to the property by Somers: The Property is located in the jurisdiction of the City of Kenosha. However, Somers has a Mutual aid agreement with the City of Kenosha, including the MABAS agreement, that could require Somers Fire/EMS Services to the Casino. • Zoning consistency: The Property is located in the jurisdiction of the City of Kenosha; therefore, the City provides the zoning services, designations and regulations for the Property. However, Somers respectfully requests that the BIA evaluate whether the intended casino use is consistent with surrounding land uses and applicable zoning and land use standards, including compatibility with nearby 9 residential areas and established community destinations. Fiscal Impacts and Unfunded Local Costs The Village requests that the BIA evaluate the full fiscal impact on Somers, including the shift of costs to Village taxpayers without a corresponding revenue source. A major 24-hour gaming and entertainment complex is reasonably expected to increase demand for public safety and emergency response. Somers supports regional response through mutual aid and interjurisdictional frameworks. The BIA should evaluate how increased service demand and associated costs will be mitigated for neighboring communities that are not receiving direct revenue sharing. Transportation and Traffic Impacts to Pleasant Prairie The Village requests that the BIA evaluate traffic impacts on the regional transportation network, not solely the immediate, local site access roads, including but not limited to: • I 94 (Exit 337), County Trunk Highway KR / 195 • I 94 (Exit 339), County Trunk Highway E • I 94 (Exit 340), County Trunk Highway S / 142 Stormwater, Retention, and Watershed Concerns Somers has serious concerns regarding stormwater retention and detention planning and the potential for increased flooding and erosion impacts. The Project location is under the stormwater management regulations for the Des Plaines River Watershed, which are more stringent and more intensive than other Village/City of Kenosha watershed management regulations. The stormwater management for the Project will need to be designed in accordance with the most recent regulations. Somers requests that the BIA require a clear demonstration that stormwater design will meet applicable standards and watershed criteria intended to protect already stressed water resources and to prevent adverse downstream impacts. Land Use Compatibility and Community Character The proposed casino and associated facilities would introduce intensive 24-hour use adjacent to established residential areas and existing community destinations. The Village is concerned that the scale, intensity, and operational characteristics of the Project are 10 incompatible with the character and land use patterns of the surrounding area and will create adverse, negative impacts that extend beyond the host jurisdiction. Request for Full Consideration and Mitigation For the reasons above, Somers request the following: Somers respectfully request that the BIA deny the fee to trust acquisition for gaming purposes or, at minimum, require comprehensive analysis and enforceable mitigation addressing: • Regional traffic impacts at I 94 Exits 337, 339, 340 and connecting corridors. • Public safety and emergency response demand and funding. • Stormwater retention, detention, and downstream watershed impacts. • Fiscal impacts to Somers, including loss of tax base and increased service costs. Village & Town of Somers taxpayers cannot be held fiscally responsible for the additional public service requirements necessary to support public safety and safe travel through Somers. Hence, the Village & Town of Somers should be included in the revenue sharing agreement to offsets the costs of services. Please include this letter in the administrative record for Section 151 “Request to Move Land into Trust for Gaming” .

Molinaro Jr. Village President Town Chairman Village of Somers Town of Somers 11 RESOLUTION NO. 2026- RESOLUTION IN OPPOSITION OF PLACING APPROXIMATELY 59.19 ACRES OF LAND INTO FEDERAL TRUST FOR THE MENOMINEE INDIAN TRIBE OF WISCONSIN FOR THE PURPOSE OF CONDUCTING CLASS Ill AND II GAMING WHEREAS, the Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin intends to apply to the Federal Bureau of Indian Affairs to have approximately 59.19 acres of land located within one-half mile from the corporate boundaries of the Town of Somers, and close proximity to the Village of Somers, placed into Trust for the Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin for the purpose of conducting Class III and Class II gaming; and, WHEREAS, the Tribe, through its authority, may only conduct gaming at the facility near Somers if it is placed into Federal Trust through application and approval by the Federal Bureau of Indian Affairs; and WHEREAS, as part of the application process, the impact of the establishment of such a gaming operation on the surrounding community must be addressed along with the efforts to address such impacts; and, WHEREAS, The Village & Town of Somers has identified negative environmental, social, economic and other impacts to the community such as increased runoff to nearby private properties, the Kilbourn ditch, and Des Plaines River watershed, increased number of public safety calls involving the Village of Somers Fire & Rescue, increased traffic on our roadways, harm to the economic redevelopment efforts along the Interstate, the strain on funding for Village & Town services, and the net social costs to our community; and, WHEREAS, the Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin has not offered the Village & Town of Somers an agreement or plan to remediate the negative impacts the proposed gaming facility will bring to the community, as is required before placing such land into Federal Trust by the Bureau of Indian Affairs. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Village & Town Board of Trustees for Somers that it asks the Bureau of Indian Affairs to reject the application made by the Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin to place land near the Village & Town of Somers in Kenosha County into Federal Trust for the purposes of Class III and Class II gaming unless an Intergovernmental Revenue Sharing Agreement can be reached remediating the negative environmental, social, and economic impacts to Somers; and, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Village/Town Administrator is directed to send a copy of this Resolution to the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the Menominee Tribe and Authority, the Governor of the State of Wisconsin, the Kenosha County Executive, and City of Kenosha Mayor. 12 Passed and adopted this 9th day of June, 2026. _____________________________ _______________________________ George Stoner Mark A.
