Must Do Operations VB on file
In order to reduce potential hazards to pedestrians and to minimize the exposure of the Village to liability for personal injury, the Village
2023 Sidewalk Replacement Program 10+ $150,000has initiated an on-going program for inspection of existing sidewalks and for repair or replacement of defective sidewalk sections. X
This proposed project is part of the Village’s on-going program to replace defective curb and gutter and repair defective concrete pavements in the
2023 Curb & Gutter Program 20+ $100,000 Village. The Village initiated the curb and gutter replacement program several years ago in conjunction with the Sidewalk Replacement Program andX
has continued this annual program focusing on the most defective and deteriorated curb and gutter sections each year on a rotating basis
throughout the curb and gutter areas of the Village.
The Village also as part of this program replaces of defective concrete pavement on roadways that are maintained by the Village. The Village
maintains several miles of concrete pavement and sections of the pavement have deteriorated to a point that replacement is necessary.
This proposed project is part of the Village’s on-going program to install storm sewer that addresses areas of existing roadways that do not drain properly,
2023 Storm Sewer Program 20+ $100,000 need storm sewer and to alleviate sump pump icing issues. X
As part of the 2023 Asphalt Paving Program the Engineering Department typically uses two funding sources. The first being a portion of the $800,000 that
2023 Asphalt Paving Program 10+ $600,000 the Village Board has appropriated to the Department of Public Works 2023 Operating Budget for replacement of deteriorated pavement and the second X
being the $600,000 that is being asked for as part of this Capital Budget.
Even with the money budget to the DPW Operating Budget above there is a large amount of work necessary to be done to the existing Village streets and
that is why we are asking for the $600,000 as part of the Capital Budget. The Village Board in 2007 decided to move the costs for the Village’s Asphalt
Paving Program to the Capital Budget, which is the Village’s on-going program to replace deteriorated asphalt pavement.
The purpose of the Asphalt Paving Program is to replace portions of existing asphalt pavement on Village streets that have deteriorated to such a level that
routine maintenance is no longer effective. In doing this work it will extend the serviceable life of the roadway for a minimum of approximately 10 years. If this
work is not done the asphalt pavement on Village streets will continue to deteriorate to a level where the entire roadway will need to be replaced and this
reconstruction will cost significantly more in the future.
The project consists of engineering design and permitting work necessary to complete rehabilitation and repairs to the Lepper Dam located on the
41237 Lepper Dam Repair Project - Phase II 20+ $100,000 Menomonee River north of Main Street. The project will also include design and permitting for dredging and disposal of sediments in the mill pond X
DESIGN above the dam.
Repairs were last made to the dam and the spillway gates in 2014. Dredging of the Mill Pond was also done in 2014. In 2021, we observed leaking around
the spillway gates and as part of the 2022 Capital Budget, the Village Board approved a project to secure all necessary permits and to draw down the Mill
Pond to complete a detailed inspection of the structure, the spillway gates and the level of sediment loading against the structure.
The inspection revealed that previous repairs done to the spillway gates in 2014 had failed causing water leakage around the spillway gates. The inspection
also revealed the need for dredging of the Mill Pond to remove sediment build-up against the structure.
Phase II of this Lepper Dam Repair and Rehabilitation project includes engineering design and permitting necessary for construction and dredging work to
be completed during the Summer of 2026.
This project consists of the design of the replacement of the Overview Drive Bridge. Overview Drive Bridge is located in the industrial park in the south east
Overview Drive Bridge Replacement 20+ $80,000 corner of the Village just east of Lilly Road and north of Lisbon Road. The Overview Drive over the existing bridge has been closed due to the center CMP X
DESIGN cell buckling and causing sinkholes in the roadway above. The Village DPW has performed temporary repairs to ensure the center cells does not continue to
buckle. The existing structure has a current sufficiency rating is 19.8. The Village entered into a State Municipal Agreement with the Wisconsin Department
of Transportation to reconstruct this bridge. The Village has completed the WDOT design consultant selection process and submitted the preferred consultant
to the WDOT for concurrence. Once approved the Village will begin negotiating a design contact so that the design may begin this coming summer.
This project is scheduled for construction in 2025.
This project consists of the reconstruction of the roadway and relay of the water main in Ridgeview Drive from Cherokee Drive to Pilgrim Road. The project
41242 Ridgeview Dr - Cherokee Dr to Pilgrim Rd20+ $710,000 will include relaying of the water main with appurtenances, adjusting of the sanitary sewer manholes, removal and replacement of curb & gutter and driveway X
WM Relay, Storm Sewer & Street Reconstruction approaches, upsizing of existing storm sewer, installation of additional storm sewer and removal and replacement of the asphalt pavement. In the section of
CONSTRUCTION the roadway that still has a rural cross section, the road will be improved with curb & gutter with storm sewer. The driveways will replaced with new
concrete approaches.
The existing 8” water main will be replaced due to the age, cast iron material of the water main and the water main breaks in this subdivision.
Roman Drive is currently a private access road from Falls Parkway to Grand Avenue being maintained by private parties. As part of the TID #8 Amendment,
41241 Roman Dr - Grand Ave to Falls Parkway 20+ $530,000 this section of private road is intended to be made into a public street. The Village has been working with the property owner responsible for maintaining the X
WM Relay, Storm Sewer & Street Reconstruction access road and bridge. The Village has reached an agreement to obtain an easement for Municipal Purposes in order for the Village to convert Roman
CONSTRUCTION Drive to a public street.
This project consists of the reconstruction of Roman Drive in order to bring it up to current public road standards. The reconstruction will include a new water
main with appurtenances extended from Falls Parkway to replace the old existing water main under the Menomonee River. This would eliminate a river
crossing that is always problematic and a potential source of water loss. The reconstruction will also remove the existing asphalt pavement and driveways
and install curb & gutter, driveway approaches, sidewalk and additional storm sewer. A bio-infiltration basin will be constructed at the end of the new storm
sewer to help with the Village’s MS4 requirements. New base course and asphalt will be installed along with any restoration.
This project was included in the recent amendment to TID #8.
This project consists of the installation of permanent cul-du-sac turn around improvements at the recently created dead ends of Nor-X-Way Avenue and
Nor-X-Way & Industrial Avenue 20+ $95,000 Industrial Avenue following the vacation of Hillside Lane. X
Cul-de-sac Improvements
CONSTRUCTION Hillside Lane and a portion of Nor-X-Way Avenue were vacated by the Village Board in 2020 because they did not provide access to any properties other
than those occupied by Glenroy, Inc. In 2018, Glenroy received Planned Infill Development approval for an approximate 108,265 square foot addition
connecting the existing building along Nor-X-Way Avenue with Glenroy’s southern building along Megal Drive. Glenroy was able to utilize this vacated right of
way for parking to accommodate additional employees as a result of their building expansion.
Concrete curb heads were cut off and temporary asphalt pavement was placed at the dead end of Nor-X-Way to allow traffic in the roadway to turn-around,
however, a more permanent cul-du-sac turn-around improvement is necessary. In addition, since both dead-end roadways still have the appearance of
through streets, without more permanent turn-around improvements, Glenroy will continue to contend with vehicles trespassing onto their private property.
Permanent Municipal Purposes Easements must also be obtained from Glenroy to allow construction of these cul-du-sac improvements. We’ve discussed
these plans and construction schedules with Glenroy and they are pleased to work with the Village to complete the steps necessary to implement the more
permanent cul-du-sac improvements at these dead-end streets.

This project consists of the replacement of the existing 16” water main and appurtenances in Pilgrim Road from Menomonee Avenue to Park Blvd. The
Pilgrim Road - Menomonee Ave to Park Blvd water main was originally installed in 1959 and is made of old sandcast ductile iron. The Village has experienced 4 major breaks on this main in the fall of
WM Relay 20+ $1,550,000 2022 creating disruptions to the Village’s water system as well as the roadway and traffic. This 16” water main is an important link in the Village’s water X
DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION system and has reached the end of the useful service life.
A new 16” water main will be installed parallel to the existing main and directionally drilled under the Menomonee River with HDPE pipe. New connections
will be extended to all side street and all existing laterals will be replaced with new poly laterals. The existing water main will be abandoned in place. The
traffic is intended to be maintained with lane closures to allow room for the contractor to work. The pavement will be patched with new asphalt and new

Kiwanis Park - Parking Lot Improvements20+ $220,000 of Menomonee Avenue and Townhall Road. X
DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION
People currently using the park either park on the north side of Menomonee Avenue along the existing gravel shoulder or have to walk to the park. With the
reconstruction of Menomonee Avenue being planned for the summer of 2025 the parking along Menomonee Avenue will be eliminated for the new roadway
in this area which will be converted from a rural section to an urban section. A 5-foot sidewalk will be extended along the north side to Townhall Road for
pedestrian access.
The construction of a parking lot in Kiwanis Park is included as a recommended improvement in the Village’s Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation plan that is
adopted by the Village.
This project consists of the installation of an automatic transfer switch and generator at the former Fire Station No. 4 facility located at W134N8777 Executive Parkway.
Fire Station #4 - Generator & Building Modification20+ $70,000 W134N8777 Executive Parkway. X
CONSTRUCTION
The building has transitioned from use as a Fire Station to a Police facility. The portable trailer mounted generator that had been available when the
Fire Department occupied the building is no longer available now that the Police Department is using the facility. In addition, recent power outages and the
lack of a back-up generator at the facility have revealed concerns over security and access into and around the building.
The Menomonee Falls Police Department would like to implement a broad, department-wide Body Worn Cameras System. The purpose of this project is to
Police Body Camaras 15+ $230,000 provide a comprehensive audio and visual recording system of BWC for all sworn employees that have regular contact with the public as a first responder. X
The funds would be used to purchase 59 BWC, software licensing, hardware, digital storage, technical support, warranty and accessory hardware. This
would be to ensure transparency with all stakeholders served by this agency. This would satisfy the expectation by the public that this agency and its officers
are using modern technology specifically with BWC. This project will ensure progress towards the department’s mission and values. The service area will be
the Village of Menomonee Falls located within Waukesha County, Wisconsin with a population of approximately 39,217. The public, officers, prosecutor’s
office, and fellow law enforcement agencies would benefit from this project.
The following is the relevant agency information that provides context for the number of officers planned to be equipped with body cameras:
The Menomonee Falls Police Department is authorized 62 sworn positions with staffing at 61 sworn officers and 20 civilian staff members. There are four
command positions to include the Chief of Police, two Captains and a Special Investigations Lieutenant that would not be required to wear a BWC based on
their current duties and responsibilities. The remaining sworn staff (58) would have some requirement either for the entire shift or as assigned duties require
it that involve primary duties with traffic patrol, beat patrol, responding to assigned duties that are inclusive as a first responder, thereby requiring the BWC.
The number of cameras that would be purchase include individual issuance to include two spare cameras due to the critical function of this equipment and
minimizing downtime in the event a BWC is damaged, lost or stolen.
