Discussion and Action Regarding the Minutes 3.1 Discussion and possible action to adopt Apr 23, 2026 meeting minutes Motion was made and seconded (M. Kreiter, J. Blackwood) to approve the April 23, 2026, meeting minutes. The motion passed unanimously. 4. Water and Sewer Division 4.1 Discussion and possible action regarding Well #8 PFAS Pilot Study [Mueller/Kincaid] Ms. Mueller presented the findings of the yearlong PFAS pilot study conducted at Well #8. She provided background, noting that Well #8 is situated within a residential subdivision and that a primary design constraint throughout the study was finding a treatment solution that could fit within the existing building footprint or be constructed as an addition consistent with the character of the surrounding neighborhood. The study concluded that an anion exchange system is the preferred treatment technology for PFAS removal and would fit within the existing two-car and single-car garage space, with excavation of the garage floor planned to accommodate the treatment tanks. Ms. Mueller noted that anion exchange is the most proven technology for PFAS removal and that the Village of Pewaukee and other communities across the state, including West Bend, employ similar systems. DRAFT Page 4 of 56 A significant challenge identified during the pilot study was iron buildup within the anion exchange media. Iron competes with PFAS for surface area on the media, reducing treatment effectiveness. The proposed solution involves adding an iron- removal pre-treatment step with aeration to oxidize and remove iron before the water reaches the PFAS treatment system. Mr. Kincaid noted that the utility draws between 500 and 580 gallons per minute, making iron accumulation far more pronounced than what a typical private well homeowner would experience. Updated cost estimates, developed in consultation with the City's engineering consultants on the day of the meeting, placed the total project cost at $3,540,000 for the Well #8 location alone, revised upward from an earlier preliminary estimate of approximately $2,000,000. Equipment and most of the mechanical work account for approximately $2,440,000, with the remainder covering contingencies, engineering, planning, and fees. Notable cost drivers include the need for helical piers due to the site's filled soil conditions, upgraded well pumps and electrical systems, steel treatment vessels and piping, and an 11,000-gallon holding tank (estimated at $300,000) required to manage backwash discharge at a rate that would otherwise exceed the existing sewer system's capacity. Committee Member Blackwood inquired whether granular activated carbon (GAC) might offer a more cost-effective alternative given the updated price. Mr. Kincaid indicated that GAC is a less proven technology for PFAS removal; specifically, it carries greater mechanical complexity, and while early estimates had suggested it might be approximately $1,000,000 less expensive for the treatment system alone, that figure did not account for the additional building construction costs that would be required. Additional staffing demands for operating a GAC system were also noted as a disadvantage. The committee discussed the broader PFAS situation across the City's well system. Ms. Mueller noted that Well #12 also exceeds PFAS limits but produces only 125 gallons per minute, making a $3.5 million treatment investment difficult to justify. Instead, the City is exploring abandoning Well #12 and drilling a new deep well (Well #13) at the same location to leverage the existing reservoir infrastructure and blend treated water. Ms. Mueller also acknowledged that two other shallow wells show small PFAS detections that have not yet triggered DNR action and that PFAS concentrations at Well #8 have been observed to increase with higher pumping rates, as the contaminant migrates through the aquifer. The source of PFAS contamination in the area remains unidentified. Ms. Mueller noted that while an investigation might theoretically narrow the source, given that two City wells and a Village of Pewaukee well within approximately one mile of each other are all affected, the cost and complexity of such an investigation would be substantial and are viewed as more appropriately the responsibility of the DNR or EPA. The committee moved to forward the item to the full Council for review. Motion to forward the Well #8 PFAS Pilot Study to the Common Council was made by Alderperson Wamser and seconded by J. Blackwood. The motion carried unanimously. DRAFT Page 5 of 56 4.2 Discussion and possible action regarding the 2025 Annual Consumer Confidence Report [Mueller/Kincaid] Ms. Mueller presented the 2025 Annual Consumer Confidence Report, which is mandated annually by the EPA and DNR for municipal water systems, with a July 1 deadline. Ms. Mueller noted that beginning in 2027, the report will be required to be posted twice per year. The report addresses water quality and includes notice of PFAS, radium, and gross alpha contamination, which are also communicated to customers via quarterly utility bill inserts. The City transitioned in the prior year from a special mailer and hand-delivery program to posting the report on the City website, reducing costs while remaining in compliance, with paper copies available upon request. Motion to forward the 2025 Annual Consumer Confidence Report to the Common Council was made by J. Blackwood and seconded by M. Kreiter. The motion carried unanimously. 4.3 Discussion and possible action regarding the 2025 Compliance Maintenance Annual Report [Mueller/Kincaid] Ms. Mueller presented the 2025 Compliance Maintenance Annual Report, the annual DNR report for the City's sanitary sewer system. The report received an "A" grade. Ms. Mueller noted that the DNR flagged the need for a sewer rate review, as only the first phase of the required rate study has been completed. The committee was informed that it should expect a presentation from Ehlers by the end of the year with a recommendation for updated sewer rates. It was noted that the DNR requires a rate review every two years, and failure to complete it results in a 20-point deduction, which would drop the City's grade from an "A" to a "C," triggering additional reporting obligations. Motion to forward the 2025 Compliance Maintenance Annual Report to the Common Council was made by J. Blackwood and seconded by M. Kreiter. The motion carried unanimously. 4.4 Discussion and Possible Action regarding Adoption of Sewer Ordinance Chapter 3XX Ms. Mueller presented a draft of the updated Sanitary Sewer Ordinance, noting that the current version dates to approximately 1996 and was inherited from the former town sanitary district. The update modernizes the ordinance's language, format, and regulatory references and ensures alignment with the ordinances of the City of Brookfield and the City of Waukesha, both of which receive the City's wastewater for treatment. Particular attention was given to industrial and non-residential users, who must comply with the receiving municipalities' pretreatment requirements. The draft also establishes clearer enforcement provisions for properties that have not connected to the municipal sewer system within the required 15-year window, DRAFT Page 6 of 56 including a standby fee of 150 percent of the quarterly sewer bill (currently $211.50 per quarter) and a process for the City to enter a property and make the connection if necessary. The final section is being completed by the City Attorney prior to the ordinance being submitted for adoption. The ordinance is scheduled for its first reading before the Common Council on the following Monday, with the second reading and adoption expected in July. Motion to forward Sewer Ordinance Chapter 3XX to the Common Council was made by M. Kreiter and seconded by J. Blackwood. The motion carried unanimously. 4.5 Discussion and possible action regarding Mandatory Sewer Connections on Various Assessment Districts [Wagner/Mueller] Ms. Wagner presented an overview of assessment districts where the 15-year mandatory sewer connection deadline has been reached, is imminent, or will arrive within the next few years. The affected areas include Rolling Ridge/Arrowhead (approximately 20–25 properties not yet connected), Green Road (approximately five properties), Duplainville Road, Still River/Blue Mountain Road (the largest group, with the deadline expiring in August 2026), and Valley View/Sunny Ridge. The committee was informed that the City will be sending formal notices to property owners in these districts, allowing one year from the date of the letter to complete their connection. Following that period, the standby fee of $211.50 per quarter will be assessed to properties that remain unconnected. Staff acknowledged that some residents, particularly along Bluemound Road, where the developer was not required to install sewer laterals, will face elevated connection costs, as those properties will likely need to bore under the recently repaved roadway due to a five-year pavement disruption restriction. The committee was advised to anticipate some constituent pushback and potential inquiries to both staff and the Council. Mrs. Wagner emphasized that the mandatory connection policy has been in place for more than 20 years and that consistent enforcement is now necessary. Alderperson Jerry Wamser abstained from the vote, citing his residence within one of the affected areas. Motion to forward the mandatory sewer connection policy and associated notices to the Common Council was made by M. Kreiter and seconded by J. Blackwood. The motion carried, with one abstention by Alderperson Wamser. 5. Highway Division 5.1 Discussion and possible action regarding whether to continue battery recycling at the DPW Recycling Center. [Stevens] DRAFT Page 7 of 56 The discussion regarding whether to continue battery recycling at the DPW Recycling Center was postponed because staff member Matt Stevens, who was set to present, was not present. The discussion will be placed on the agenda for the next meeting. 6. Public Comment - Please limit your comments to two minutes. If further time for discussion is needed, please contact your District Alderperson prior to the meeting. No public comment was recorded. 7. Adjournment A motion to adjourn was made by M. Kreiter and seconded by Alderperson Wamser. The motion carried unanimously. The meeting was adjourned at 4:47 pm. Respectfully Submitted Magdelene Wagner Director of Public Works DRAFT Page 8 of 56 City of Pewaukee - New Agenda Item Agenda Language: Discussion and possible action regarding the City of Pewaukee and Lake Pewaukee Sanitary District Sewer Service Agreement expiration and possible extension. Sub Item Agenda Language: Background Provided By: Magdelene Wagner Background: The City of Pewaukee and Lake Pewaukee Sanitary District (LPSD) have an agreement which allows LPSD to operate within the City of Pewaukee. The Agreement outlines the terms and conditions for the transport of the City's effluent and service to City parcels. This agreement terminates at midnight December 31, 2027. The City needs to determine if this agreement should be renewed or if the City should pursue discussions with LPSD to merge into one sanitary district as a whole or the portion that is within the City limits. The LPSD system serves approximately 987 properties within the City of Pewaukee which is approximately 64% of LPSD's customer base. The majority of the system was installed in the 1970's which is some of the oldest sewers in the City of Pewaukee. There are multiple lift stations as part of their system. The operation of the two systems within the City's boundaries create challenges for service, maintenance, and confusion for the City's residents. In addition, LPSD sewer rates are $197 per REU per quarter compared to the City's $141 per REU per quarter. We would like to begin the discussion if we pursue an agreement extension or a possible merger of the systems.

(5) The Debt Service Component is intended to accumulate, by the end of each calendar year, funds sufficient to meet the subsequent year's debt service needs. The Utility has established a Reserve Capacity Assessment (RCA) to finance, among other projects, the costs of new, upgraded, a nd existing capacity in the Fox River Water Pollution Control Center. Any and all funds collected through the RCA may be used to offset the Debt Service Component of the Sewer Service Charge. The Common Council shall determine, in conjunction with the approval of the annual Sewer Service Charge, the amount, if any, of accumulated RCA f unds to be used to offset the Debt Service Component of the Sewer Service Charge. (6) The Base Number of Residential Equivalent Units shall be the number of residential equivalent connections serviced by the Utility as of the last day of the preceding fiscal year. (7) The Base Number of Sewer Users shall be the number of sewer users serviced by the Utility as of the last day of the preceding fiscal year. C.

The late payment charge shall be applied to the total unpaid balance for utility service, including unpaid late payment charges. The late payment charge is applicable to all customers. D. Prorated Billings: Quarterly billings of the Sewer Service Charge shall be prorated for new service connections based upon the number of months of service during the quarter. Service starting on or before the 15th day of the month shall be treated as occurring on the first day of that month. Service starting after the 15th day of the month shall be treated as occurring on the 1st day of the subsequent month. (1) Excess Revenues: Excess Revenues collected from a user class within a fiscal year shall be applied to that user class for the Operation and Maintenance Component of the Sewer Service Charge in the subsequent year. Excess revenues shall be computed by the end of the second quarter of the subsequent fiscal year and shall be applied equally to the Sewer Service Charge for the second, third and fourth quarter of the fiscal year. Excess Revenues shall be defined as that amount of revenue generated by the Sewer Service Charge in excess of the sum of: Page 40 of 56 CITY OF PEWAUKEE CHAPTER 300 – SANITARY SEWER SERVICE ORDINANCE July 1, 2026 19 (a) Actual Operation and Maintenance Costs, including 100% of actual depreciation expense computed on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles, (b) Administrative Costs allocated to the sewer utility, (c) All debt service costs allocated to the sewer utility, and (d) A rate of return of 8.5% on the sewer utility’s Net Investment Rate Base. (2) Net Investment Rate Base: shall be the larger of zero or the average net book value of sewer system assets, including assets constructed jointly with other governmental agencies, individuals, or other organizations, less the average of contributions in aid of construction. (3) Notification: Users shall be notified annually of the portion of the Sewer Service Charge attributable to wastewater treatment services. E. Industrial and Commercial Charges for Other Than Domestic Wastewater and Surcharge for Discharging Conventional Pollutants.

All persons discharging wastes into the Sewer System are subject to a surcharge, in addition to any other wastewater service charge, if their wastewater has a concentration greater than Domestic Wastewater concentrations. The volume of flow used for computing waste surcharges shall be the metered water consumption, or the actual volume of waste as determined by an industrial waste meter in installation. The amount of surcharge shall reflect the cost incurred by the Sewer Utility in removing BOD, Suspended Solids, Phosphorus, and other pertinent constituents. The surcharge shall be computed on the basis of Model No. 2, Federal Register, Vol. 39, No. 29, Feb. 11, 1974, p. 5270. Surcharge = [B (B) + S (S) + P (P)] V (2) Surcharge for Discharge of Toxic Pollutants Users discharging toxic pollutants prohibited by this ordinance, shall in addition to any fines or penalties levied by the Sewer Utility pay for any increased operating, maintenance, including depreciation, and administrative costs attributable to such discharge. F. Reserve Capacity Assessments The City has levied and assessed upon each lot or parcel of land currently within the Sewer Utility, but not having an existing connection to the Sewer System and upon land subsequently attached to the Sewer Utility , a Reserve Capacity Assessment (RCA).

Stat. § 66.0809. All proceedings in relation to the collection of general property taxes and special assessments and to the return and sale of property for delinquent taxes and special assessments shall apply to said tax if the same is not paid within the time required b y law for payment of taxes upon real estate. § 300 –18 - Equipment Replacement Account A. The Sewer Utility shall establish a segregated replacement account for the purpose of accumulating cash reserves. Such reserves shall be available for the Replacement Costs of the Sewer System as necessary for the purpose of extending the useful life of mechanical equipment.

Page 50 of 56 Page 1 of 6 INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CIY OF PEWAUKEE AND THE VILLAGE OF PEWAUKEE WITH RESPECT TO ESTABLISHING AND MAINTAINING A QUIET ZONE CORRIDOR ALONG THE CANADIAN PACIFIC KANSAS CITY RAILROAD RIGHT•OF•WAY THIS AGREEMENT entered into this day of 2026, between the CITY OF PEWAUKEE, a Wisconsin Municipal Corporation acting by and through its Mayor and Common Council, herein referred to as CITY, and the VILLAGE OF PEWAUKEE, a Wisconsin Municipal Corporation acting by and through its President and Board of Trustees, herein referred to as VILLAGE, and are sometimes hereinafter referred to individually as a "Party" and collectively as the "Parties". The CANADIAN PACIFIC KANSAS CITY RAILROAD right-of-way is sometimes hereinafter referred to as the "Corridor". WITNESSETH WHEREAS, the Swift Rail Development Act of 1994, (Public Law No. 103- 440) hereinafter referred to as the "Act", directed the Federal Railroad Administration, hereinafter referred to as the FRA, to issue a rule, hereinafter referred to as the "Final Rule" (70 Federal Register 21844 published April 27, 2005), mandating the sounding of train horns at all public highway-rail crossings; and WHEREAS, said Final Rule amended Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Chapter II - Federal Railroad Administration, Department of Transportation, hereinafter referred to as Chapter II, for the creation of quiet zone corridors through the use of supplementary and/or alternative safety measures to avoid the mandated sounding of train horns at highway- rail crossings; and WHEREAS, the Corridor consists of all at -grade crossings along the Canadian Pacific Kansas City Railroad right -of-way from Duplainville Road to Parkside Lane which include all the Parties to this Agreement; and WHEREAS, the sounding of train horns has a negative impact on the quality of life of the residents within communities along the Canadian Pacific Kansas City Railroad right-of-way; and WHEREAS, the Parties determined that it would be desirable to pursue a cooperative quiet zone corridor (the "Quiet Zone Corridor") as a cost effective and acceptable alternative to the mandatory sounding of the train horns and/or the installation of supplemental and/or alternative safety measures included in Chapter II; and WHEREAS, RA Smith, Inc. performed the study and prepared a report for the Parties recommending that they consider taking the following action to qualify for a Quiet Zone Corridor: (I) Duplainville Road - No improvements required; and, (II) Forest Grove Drive – No improvements required; and, (III) Oakton Avenue – ; and, (IV) Wisconsin Avenue – ; and, (V) Kopmeier Drive – No improvements required; and, Page 51 of 56 Page 2 of 6 (VI) Parkside Lane – No Improvements required. WHEREAS, the VILLAGE is willing, at its expense, to install the recommended improvements at Oakton Avenue and Wisconsin Avenue grade crossings; and WHEREAS, upon completion of the above described work, a Notice of Establishment of a New Quiet Zone for the Quiet Zone Corridor will be distributed to all concerned Parties, plus the FRA, the Wisconsin Department of Transportation, the Canadian Pacific Kansas City Railway in accordance with Section 222.43(d) of 49CFR Chapter II; and WHEREAS, Section 222.47 of 49CFR Chapter II provides for periodic updates of quiet zones; and WHEREAS, all of the Parties to this Agreement understand that they will remain mutually obligated to the other Parties, individually and collectively, to undertake the process of conducting periodic updates of the Quiet Zone Corridor in accordance with Section 222.47(b) of 49 CFR Chapter II; and WHEREAS, provisions of Section 222.51 of 49CFR Chapter II provide for circumstances under which the authorization and approval to establish and maintain a quiet zone corridor may be withdrawn by the FRA, after sufficient notice, with such withdrawal again requiring the mandatory sounding of train horns at all grade crossings; and WHEREAS, if such withdrawal should occur and it results in the mandatory sounding of train horns within the Quiet Zone Corridor, installation of approved safety measures/supplemental safety measures as approved within 49CFR Chapter II may be made by the affected Party/Parties to re -qualify the Quiet Zone Corridor in accordance with the FRA rule; and WHEREAS, all of the Parties to this Agreement understand that while it is their intention to remain mutually obligated to each other, individually and collectively, to undertake those actions necessary to maintain the continued existence of the Quiet Zone Corridor, it may be cost prohibitive or in some other way not in their best interest to do so; and WHEREAS, all of the Parties to this Agreement understand that, if the quiet zone designation is withdrawn by the FRA or if the quiet zone fails to be recertified or re -qualified by the FRA, any Party may choose to withdraw from this Agreement in the sole discretion of such Party; and WHEREAS, all of the Parties to this Agreement understand that, if any Party decides to withdraw from this Agreement, such withdrawing Party shall be permitted to apply for an alternate quiet zone corridor, individually, or in combination with any other Party or jurisdiction; and WHEREAS, Wisconsin Statute Section 66.0301 authorizes units of local government to contract, exercise, combine, or transfer any power or function not prohibited by law or ordinance; and WHEREAS, Wisconsin Statute Section 66.0301 authorizes municipalities to exercise Page 52 of 56 Page 3 of 6 jointly with any public agency of the State, including other units of local government, any power, privilege, or authority which may be exercised by a unit of local government individually, and to enter into contracts for the performance of governmental services, activities, and undertakings. NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, and pursuant to all applicable statutes, local ordinances, and authority, the Parties hereto do hereby mutually agree as follows: 1. The foregoing preambles are hereby incorporated herein as though fully set forth. 2. One of the Parties to this Agreement shall be designated as the Quiet Zone Administrator and shall, as such, be responsible for complying with the quiet zone recertification requirements in accordance with Section 222.47 of 49CFR Chapter II. It is understood that the recertification process may require the services of a consultant. The Administrator shall allocate the consultant's costs in connection with such recertification equally among the parties. If the FRA fails to recertify the Quiet Zone Corridor as a designated quiet zone, any Party may withdraw from this Agreement if, in its sole discretion, such withdrawing Party deems it to be in their best interest to do so. 3. If a railroad crossing safety improvement is modified at any intersection within the Quiet Zone Corridor by any Party to this Agreement, the roadway authority, or any other authorized agency, the Quiet Zone Corridor may be required to be re -qualified and re- established as a designated quiet zone by the FRA.
