1 We lcome Packet The Village of Maple Bluff, population 1,357, is a small, residential suburb of Madison, the capital of Wisconsin. Maple Bluff occupies a narrow band on the northeast shoreline of Lake Mendota where Winnebago Indians once had their summer encampments. The Winnebago were especially attracted to the northeast side of the lake because of the dense forest of mature maple trees, a protected area excellent for both hunting and fishing. Lake Mendota shielded this forest home from the prairie fires that swept northward-thus the dense maple grove on McBride's Point (the "bluff") from which our Village gets its name. While at the University of Wisconsin in 1882, Thomas E. Coleman wrote about the Winnebago encampments on McBride's Point: the Upper Bluff, where mounds were still present when cottages began to be built there in the 1890's. Maple Bluff is made up of five separate real estate developments that date from 1892 to1926. Many residences occupy commanding views along one of the most scenic parts of Lake Mendota. Maple Bluff's Village limits are defined by Lake Mendota on the west, Sherman Avenue and the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad on the east, the Yahara River on the south, and Warner Beach on the north. A Brief History of Maple Bluff Until one hundred and fifty years ago, the area that is now known as the Village of Maple Bluff was a heavily wooded part of Taychopera, the countryside around the famous Four Lakes. Winnebago Indians camped in Fuller’s Woods and the Upper Bluff, taking advantage of the excellent fishing in the clear cool waters of Lake Mendota and hunting among the maples and oaks. In season, they would make sugar and maple syrup. B y 1840, most of the Winnebagos’ had been driven out by acts of the Federal Government. Land developers, notably James Doty, bought vast tracts of Taychopera from the government for $1.25 per acre. James McBride (for years the area was known as McBride’s Bluff) bought the Village site in 1843, lived here until his death in 1854, and passed the land on to his sons who sold off portions to, among others, Governor Leonard J. Farwell (hence Farwell Drive). T he Bluff was not good farmland, although there once was a cherry orchard on part of what is now the Maple Bluff Country Club golf course. The woodland soil would not begin to match the nearby prairies in fertility, and as a pasture-well; the cows had a tendency to fall off the bluff into the lake. T hrough most of the rest of the 19th Century and the early years of the 20th Century, the Bluff seemed attractive only to a few who liked remoteness from the bustle of growing Madison or wanted to 2 enjoy a game recently imported from Scotland. In 1899, the Maple Bluff Golf Club was formed (with only five holes). The Clubhouse was not constructed until 1925. In the early 1870’s, there had been only eleven property owners. One of them, a Norwegian immigrant named Halle Steensland, subdivided his land for summer cottages. He had only a few takers, but slowly over the years, the area became more desirable, either for summer homes or permanent residences. Business and professional people, even the University faculty who wanted to live as far as possible from the campus, increasingly found the peaceful remoteness attractive. The Lakewood Land Company, operating out of what is now the Girl Scout Cabin in Firemen’s Park, tried to sell lots from 1909 on, without great success. Business went slowly until at the bottom of the Great Depression of the 1930’s; one could buy a nice lot in the Bluff for about $700. In fact, matters were so bad that the residents petitioned the City of Madison in the late 1920’s requesting annexation. They were turned down; Maple Bluff was too remote and sparsely populated. The Villagers, stimulated by the rejection, financed the paving of their roads, installation of streetlights, and building of storm sewers. They established their own Fire Department. Lakewood School (where Johnson Park is now) was built on land donated by a resident. In 1931, the Village of Maple Bluff was incorporated. Later, after improvements were in place, Madison changed its mind and asked Maple Bluff to become part of the city. The Villagers decided to continue to take care of themselves, even though surrounded by the city and dependant upon it for some services. There haven’t been great changes since 1931. Lakewood School, despite its elegant appearance, was razed in 1986 several years after it went into disuse. The old Village Hall was erected in the late 1950’s and replaced by the current Village Center in 1999. Maple Bluff has retained its character as a predominately singly-family, residential community. Today’s Villagers may find it difficult to realize that it might have been otherwise. A hundred years ago a large icehouse (clear, pure Lake Mendota ice was in great demand throughout the Midwest) and a sausage factory occupied part of the lakefront in the Lower Bluff. Just outside the present Village limits was a brewery. These industrial beginnings disappeared in the 1890’s; apparently, the area was no more suitable for industry than it was for farming. John Nolen, Madison’s famed city planner, plotted Lakewood (the Lower Bluff) with numerous small lots and far more streets than now exist. The Lakewood Land Company rejected his plan in favor of the present, more spacious arrangement. Thus, the Village is pleasantly different from most of the older residential areas on the east side of Madison. Many present and former residents think Maple Bluff is a special place for children to grow up.

Each election requires 5-7 or more people to manage the poll lists, ballot signing, voter registration, ballot machines and the ability to support voters by answering their questions, providing voting support if requested and to assist in any capacity to assure that all votes will be counted. 5 The Village is in need of having additional people trained and ready to work at the polls. The poll worker shifts vary with some people working all day and other shifts that consist of 6, 4 or 3 hours. Workers are compensated financially for their time spent working at the polls.

Maple Bluff building codes and municipal ordinances as well as state statutes are the legal standards governing building and construction practices. It is not intended that this packet conflict or interfere with any ordinance or statute. If any discrepancies are identified between this brochure and any legal document, the ordinance or statute governs. BUILDING PERMITS & REVIEW BY BUILDING BOARD The Village of Maple Bluff issues and enforces building permits. However, there is a Building Board that reviews and approves requests for permits. The Building Board shall hear and approve or disapprove all applicants' requests including but not limited to new construction, additions to any existing structure, new windows, window modifications in terms of proportion, size, detail, color and/or function, new and replacement windows, exterior siding, new or replacement fences, swimming pools, tennis courts, retail/commercial signs in the "A" Business District, miscellaneous and accessory buildings including storage sheds, play structures and alterations which involve a significant change in the exterior appearance of an existing structure. Projects which do not require the approval of the Building Board but still require a building permit include driveways, interior remodels, mechanical installations, roof replacements and identical window replacements which conform to the original design intent of the structure as determined by the Village Administrator. THE PERMIT PROCESS: It is highly recommended that prior to starting the permit process you review this packet direct questions that you may have to buildingboard@villageofmaplebluff.com. The next step will be to submit your application materials to the Village Office during normal business hours (Mon-Fri 7:30-4:30) or online (villageofmaplebluff.com). Application materials will include detailed plans, photos and other materials as identified in the APPLICATION MATERIAL CHECKLIST included in this packet. Those plans are reviewed by the Building Inspector for zoning compliance, though the ultimate responsibility for zoning compliance rests with the applicant. The application materials are then presented to the Village Building Board at a public meeting. Plans are reviewed with the homeowner or other representative to verify compliance with standards established by municipal ordinance and state statute. Those standards can be found in this packet and are entitled, BUILDING BOARD CHECKLIST. 1 THE BUILDING BOARD: The Building Board consists of seven citizens, as least one of whom is a member of the Village Board of Trustees and serves as chair. The Building Board reviews all submitted applications on which it is proposed to erect or alter a structure. The Building Board will hear a presentation on the submitted application from the applicant and/or the owner of the lot where the project is to take place. The Building Board may also hear any other persons, whether neighboring residents or property owners, desiring to be heard regarding your project. The Building Board will then approve or deny the submitted application based upon standards established within the Building and Zoning Codes. If the application is approved, the Building Inspector will issue a building permit for the project. FILING DEADLINE: The Building Board usually meets the second Tuesday of each month starting at 5:15pm. ALL application materials MUST be submitted NOT LATER THAN 2:00 p.m., two weeks prior to the meeting date. You may refer to the checklist in this brochure for a complete list of the required application materials. IF ALL REQUIRED MATERIALS ARE NOT SUBMITTED BY THE FILING DEADLINE, YOUR PROJECT WILL NOT BE INCLUDED ON THE AGENDA. You will then need to wait until the following meeting to have your project heard. BUILDING BOARD MEETING: The Building Board agenda is finalized on the filing deadline for application materials. You should plan to arrive at the Village Center at the designated starting time of the meeting. During the meeting, you will have opportunity to present your project. It is also common for general contractors or architects to attend the meeting and present the project. You should have a complete and final description of all materials to be used during your project. In many cases, applicants bring samples to the Building Board meeting. You should refer to the submitted materials during your presentation. After your presentation, Building Board members may ask questions regarding details of the project. Neighbors or other residents will be given an opportunity to speak about your project if they choose. After a discussion period, the Building Board Chair will entertain a motion concerning your project. The Building Board will then vote in consideration of the motion. After approval by the Building Board, you will meet with the Building Inspector to obtain all permits required for your project. FEES: The fee structure for building permits is approved by the Village Board. You may request a copy of the fee structure from the Building Inspector or the Clerk’s Office. All fees must be paid prior to the commencement of the project. 2 YOU SHOULD ALSO BE AWARE OF THE FOLLOWING:  Building Board members may come to your home to view the site of the project before the meeting.  In most cases, projects can be approved in one meeting with the Building Board. For larger projects, especially new construction, there is a minimum of a two step process before approval. The first step is a schematic design review that focuses on site plan, building massing, relation to structures on adjacent properties, exterior elevations and building materials. The second step is a comprehensive review that is a thorough evaluation of the site plan, floor plans, elevation drawings, building materials and landscaping plan. In the case of larger projects or new home construction, the Building Board may also set up a special meeting to hear your request.  All projects that include land disturbance require a clearance of all utilities which can be accomplished by calling Diggers Hotline at 1-800-242-8511 to locate said utilities. REFERENCES Zoning Code information is available on the Village website – www.villageofmaplebluff.com. We have included in this packet a copy of the Building Board’s Checklist for reviewing projects. In this document, you will have the requirements and guidelines that Building Board members follow in reviewing your project. Other ordinances that you may want to consider is the Zoning Code and the Stormwater and Erosion Control Ordinance. There is additional information included in this packet on the application for Erosion Control and Stormwater Management. APPEALS Persons who are denied permits have due process options available to review those decisions. Appeals to the Zoning Board of Appeals may be taken by any person aggrieved or by an officer, department, board or bureau of the Village within 30 days after the act appealed from by filing with the Building Inspector a notice of appeal specifying the grounds thereof.

(i) Protecting the view shed of the lake for nearby properties that are impacted by the subject structure. [ ] 2. Lighting. Exterior lighting shall be adequate and in keeping with the character of the structure, but not so excessive as to impact neighbors. Applicants shall be required to demonstrate that all exterior lighting will not spill onto neighboring properties. [ ] 3. Utility Service. It is the goal of the Village of Maple Bluff to eliminate overhead wiring within the Village. To this end, owners of property within the Village, working with the Madison Gas and Electric Company, telephone, and cable television licensees, shall, in all new developments and major additions, make provision for underground service. Whenever possible this shall be accomplished during building development and construction. When it is not possible, certification to the fact that provisions have been made for the timely placement of service underground, signed by representatives of each company, shall appear on plans submitted to the Maple Bluff Building Board for review. 6 [ ] 4. Screening of Undesirable Views. Areas such as rubbish and trash storage, mechanical systems, air conditioners and lower portions of exterior wood decks shall be screened to block the view from any point outside the property. Acceptable screening may consist of any of the following or combinations thereof: a. Principal or accessory buildings b. Earth berms c. Masonry walls d. Hedges e. Trees f. Decorative fences [ ] 5. Building Design. Buildings shall meet the following requirements and conform as much as possible with the following guidelines. [ ] a. Requirements [ ] (1) Materials and colors shall be durable and harmonious with each other and with other buildings in the neighborhood. Proportion and level of detail and finish shall be consistent with the design intent of adjoining structures. [ ] (2) Mechanical elements mounted on the roof or ground shall be screened from the view of adjacent properties and streets and muffled for sound. [ ] (3) Highest quality design in architecture shall be the goal of the Village. Buildings shall be designed to complement and enrich the character of the Village. Building component massing, materials, textures, and colors shall be consistent with this character. [ ] (4) Fences shall be evaluated based on compatibility with neighboring structures in terms of appearance, materials, design, location and the resulting restriction of light, air or view. [ ] (5) Untreated lumber shall not be considered an acceptable finish as a fence, deck or railing material. [ ] (6) An addition shall relate to the existing building in terms of scale, proportion, balance, materials, roof form and pitch, detail, color and original building design intent. b. Guidelines (1) Compatibility: Structures should be designed to be compatible with the structures that are adjacent to them. (2) Facades: Large unbroken exterior facades should be avoided. (3) Elevations: All building elevations are of importance and should be carefully designed. Roof surfaces should be considered as part of the overall design and relate to existing form and slope in additions to existing structures. 7 (4) Height: The height of a structure or building and adjacent open spaces after any proposed alteration or construction should be compatible with the style and character of the structure or building and with surrounding structures and buildings. (5) Relationship Between Mass and Open Space: The relationship between a structure or building and adjacent open spaces after alteration should be compatible with the relationship between surrounding structures, buildings and adjacent open spaces. (6) Relationship Among Height, Width and Scale: The relationship among height, width, and scale of a structure or building after an alteration should be compatible with the relationship among height, width, and scale of surrounding structures and buildings. (7) Directional Expression: The directional expression of a structure or building after alteration should be compatible with the directional expression of surrounding structures and buildings.

If a garage is on the street facade of a dwelling, the garage should be setback at least one (1) foot from the facade of the dwelling. Further, the width of the dwelling portion of the structure should be at least five (5) feet wider than the width of the garage. [ ] 6. Exceptions to Floor Area Ratio (FAR). The Building Board may upon request increase the FAR for a single family residence in the "A" and "B" Residence District. In reviewing the FAR increase, the Building Board may consider the following mitigating criteria: a. If the property adjoins or is opposite a public open space or park. b. If other residences along the same side of the street adjoining the residence have similar FARs. c. If the lot has large trees and/or mature landscaping which obscures the scale of the residence. d. If the property has unique topographic features which reduce the scale of the residence. e. If the residence setback from the public street is significantly greater than minimum requirements. 8 Chapter 225. Zoning Article XIII. Fences § 225-75Policy. It shall be the policy of the Village and of this article to encourage the maintenance of visual openness and to discourage the erection of fences, such as privacy fences, which create substantial visual barriers between and among neighboring residential properties in the Village. In addition to the criteria set forth in all relevant design review provisions of this chapter,[1] the design and materials used in the construction of all fences shall aesthetically enhance the areas in which they are located. Accordingly, chain link and similar type wire fences shall be generally prohibited, except where specific findings are made that such a fence in a particular case does not conflict with the provisions of this article. [1] Editor's Note: See Arts. V and VI of this chapter. § 225-76Applicability. A. The provisions of this article shall apply to all fences and similar structures which serve as a physical barrier and shall include, without limitation, boundary fences erected along a lot line for the purpose of enclosing a lot and/or creating a barrier between lots; architectural, aesthetic or decorative fences erected for a purpose other than enclosing a lot and/or creating a barrier between lots; walls constructed of stone, brick or similar material; and retaining walls greater than two feet in height. B. This article shall not apply to the use of snow fences during the winter months, provided that such fences are used as snow fences and are removed at the end of each winter season. § 225-77Requirements and restrictions. A. No person shall construct, alter or enlarge a fence without obtaining a building permit, and the Building Board shall have first determined that the fence, when constructed, altered or enlarged, will not be unreasonably detrimental to the neighboring properties or the Village in terms of appearance, materials, design, location, and the resulting restriction of light, air or view. B. All applications for fences shall be subject to the criteria set forth in the design review provisions contained in this chapter and the statement of policy contained in this article.[1] [1] Editor's Note: See Arts. V and VI of this chapter and § 225-75 of this article. C. All fences shall generally be constructed of materials, preferably cedar or similar wood, which tend to blend in to the surroundings. Painted fences shall be discouraged. D. Boundary fences which are erected along a lot line for the purpose of enclosing a lot and/or creating a barrier between lots shall have a minimum six-inch side and rear yard setback and shall be limited to rear yards, although an exception may be allowed for corner lots or other lots involving unique circumstances. E. No fence erected in residential districts shall exceed a height of six feet above ground level. An exception to this height limitation may be allowed where the purpose of the fence is to block the view of a commercial property or provide privacy from incompatible uses, in which case, at the discretion of the Building Board, a fence may be allowed within a range of a maximum of eight feet above ground level and a minimum of four feet above ground level. F. The finished side or decorative side of all fences shall face neighboring properties. 9 EROSION CONTROL AND STORMWATER MANAGEMENT HISTORY: By Dane County mandate, the Village of Maple Bluff is required to review and enforce plans regarding Erosion Control and Stormwater Management. The Village has adopted by Ordinance the Dane County model regulations. A copy of this ordinance is available for a reproduction fee upon request. COMPLIANCE: Village staff has incorporated our Erosion Control and Stormwater Management process into our building permit process. In the “Application Material Checklist”, you will find that you must submit application materials related to your Erosion and Stormwater Management plan for your property during construction, if applicable. Please review the following document closely to help determine applicability to your project. In general, every project will need to address Erosion Control issues at the project site. Not all projects will need to meet Stormwater Management requirements. Additional compliance may be regulated by NR216 (Stormwater permit) and/or NR151 (Post Construction). You will be notified if these regulations apply to your project. PROCESS: After submitting your completed Erosion Control and Stormwater Management plan, it will be reviewed by our Public Works Director for compliance with our Ordinance. It is then forwarded to the Building Inspector to verify site compliance with erosion control before, during, and after construction until the site is stabilized. APPLICATION MATERIALS In the following pages you will find the information needed to complete an Erosion Control & Stormwater Management Plan. The first page will detail the regulations and other resources. The next two pages are documents to help you complete the Erosion Control Plan Diagram. The final page is the overall Erosion Control Management Plan. These documents, to include the site diagram, will need to be completed and submitted as a part of your application materials. 10 PLAN LEGEND TD PLAN LEGEND MAPLE BLUFF EROSION CONTROL PLAN –SIMPLIFIED CHECKLIST THIS FORM MAY BE USED FOR ONLY THE FOLLOWING: (CHECK ONE) ____ Land disturbing activities administered by Maple Bluff under the Wisconsin Uniform Dwelling Code (UDC). ____ Land disturbing activities administered under the Maple Bluff erosion control ordinance whenever all three of the following conditions exist *: (A) The land disturbance is not more than 20,000 square feet in area. (B) The land disturbance is not adjacent to and does not drain directly into any sensitive areas nearby, such as streams, lakes, or wetlands. (C) The slope throughout the land disturbance is not more than 6% (6ft. vertical to 100ft. horizontal) (*NOTE: A specific erosion control plan is required if the above conditions do not exist. Refer to the Maple Bluff Erosion Control Ordinance) Instructions: 1. Complete this plan by filling in the requested information on the inside of this form and the site diagram on this page. 2.

EROSION CONTROL – SIMPLIFIED CHECKLIST Complete the site diagram with the following information: SITE CHARACTERISTICS  North arrow and site boundary. Indicate and name adjacent streets or roadways.  Location of existing drainage ways within and nearby the site.  Location of existing and planned storm sewer inlets and culvert crossings near site.  Location of existing and proposed buildings and paved areas.  Location and approximate dimensions of the disturbed area on the site.  Approximate gradient and direction of: 1) existing and planned slopes; and 2) existing and planned drainage ways on the site.  Location and approximate watershed areas of overland runoff (sheet flow) and drainageway runoff (concentrated flow) coming onto the site from adjacent areas.  Representative soil type of the disturbed area on the site. (i.e. sandy, loam, silt loam, clay) EROSION CONTROL PRACTICES  Location of temporary soil storage piles. 1) Soil storage piles will be contained by a down slope sediment fence or be covered with a tarp. It is recommended that they be located more than 25 feet from any down slope road or drainage way. 2) It is recommended that they be temporarily seeded and mulched.  Location of temporary gravel access drive(s). 1) Gravel drive will have 2 to 3 inch aggregate stone laid at least 7 feet wide and 6 inches thick. 2) Drives will extend from the roadway 50 feet or to the building (whichever is less).  Location of sediment controls (filter fabric fence, straw bale fence, rock sediment trap, or other planned practices) that minimize the amount of eroded soil leaving the site. 1) Sediment controls will be installed along the downslope sides of the disturbed areas unless it is planned that permanent seeding and mulching will be completed within 30 days of the start of grading. 2) Sediment Controls will be installed around soil storage piles, around inlets, at outlets of drainageways, and along adjacent drainageways which receive runoff from the site.  Location of practices that will be applied to control erosion on steep slopes (greater than 12% grade) (applicable only for UDC)  Location of sediment barriers around storm sewer inlets.  Location of diversions. 1) It is recommended that areas of concentrated flow be properly diverted around disturbed areas. Overland runoff (sheet flow) from adjacent areas greater than 10,000 sq. ft. is also recommended to be diverted around disturbed areas in a manner that will not adversely impact adjacent landowners. 2) Diversions will be stabilized with seeding and mulching within 24 hours of diversion completion.  Location of practices that will control erosion in areas of concentrated flow. 1) Drainageways will be stabilized with seeding, mulching, and other appropriate measures within 24 hours of drainageway completion. 2) Sediment controls will be installed at the outlet ends of drainageways. MANAGEMENT OF EROSION CONTROL  Temporary stabilization of disturbed areas. 1) It is recommended that rough graded disturbed areas (planned to be left inactive for more than 30 days) and temporary soil stock piles (planned to be left inactive for more than 7 days) be stabilized by temporary seeding (between April 1st and October 15th) or by other cover, such as covering with a tarp or mulching. 2) Temporary seeding of oats or sudan grass are normally sown between May 15th and July 15th. Rye grass or winter wheat are normally sown between July 15th and September 15th.  Permanent stabilization of site by re-vegetation or other means. 1) Permanent seeding will be completed by September 15th or sodding placed by November 15th. 2) Straw or grassy hay mulching is recommended on all disturbed areas that are planned to be seeded.  Use of downspout and/or sump pump outlet extensions to stabilized areas.  Trapping sediment during site dewatering operations. 1) Sediment laden discharge should be temporarily ponded behind a sediment barrier until most of the sediment settles out.  Proper disposal of building material waste so that pollutants and debris do not are not carried off-site by wind or water.  Maintenance of erosion control practices. 1) All erosion control practices will be inspected daily and maintained in working condition. 2) Accumulated sediment will be removed from behind sediment fences and barriers before it reaches a depth that is equal to half the barrier height. 3) All sediment that moves off-site due to construction activities will be cleaned up by the end of the workday. 4) All sediment that moves off-site due to storm events will be cleaned up as soon as possible, but at least by the end of the next day. 5) Temporary gravel access drives will be maintained throughout construction in working condition. 6) All erosion control practices will be maintained until the disturbed areas they protect are permanently stabilized and established. Upon permanent stabilization establishment, the temporary erosion control practices will be removed.  Schedule of erosion control practice installation and site grading 1) Necessary erosion control practices will be installed prior to the beginning of grading.

Opportunity for input on decisions affecting your water quality. Every second Tuesday of the month at the Village center at 7:30pm at 18 Oxford Place Madison, WI 53704 Health Information Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the Environmental Protection Agency's safe drinking water hotline (800-426-4791). Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune systems disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the Environmental Protection Agency's safe drinking water hotline (800-426-4791). Source(s) of Water Source ID Source Depth (in feet) Status 1 Purchased Groundwater Active Purchased Water PWS ID PWS Name 11302247 MADISON WATER UTILITY To obtain a summary of the source water assessment please contact Paul Elliott at (608) 244-3048. Or visit the Village website at: https://villageofmaplebluff.com/public-works/water-quality-reports/ . There you will find our Water Quality reports and some of the City of Madison’s testing results. Educational Information The sources of drinking water, both tap water and bottled water, include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity. Contaminants that may be present in source water include:  Microbial contaminants, such as viruses and bacteria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations and wildlife.  Inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals, which can be naturally- occurring or result from urban stormwater runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining or farming.  Pesticides and herbicides, which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban stormwater runoff and residential uses.  Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are by- products of industrial processes and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban stormwater runoff and septic systems.  Radioactive contaminants, which can be naturally occurring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining activities. In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, EPA prescribes regulations that limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. FDA regulations establish limits for contaminants in bottled water, which shall provide the same protection for public health. Definitions Term Definition AL Action Level: The concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements which a water system must follow. HA and HAL HA: Health Advisory. An estimate of acceptable drinking water levels for a chemical substance based on health effects information. HAL: Health Advisory Level is a concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, poses a health risk and may require a system to post a public notice. Health Advisories are determined by US EPA. HI HI: Hazard Index: A Hazard Index is used to assess the potential health impacts associated with mixtures of contaminants. Hazard Index guidance for a class of contaminants or mixture of contaminants may be determined by the US EPA or Wisconsin Department of Health Services. If a Health Index is exceeded a system may be required to post a public notice. Level 1 Assessment A Level 1 assessment is a study of the water system to identify potential problems and determine, if possible, why total coliform bacteria have been found in our water system. Level 2 Assessment A Level 2 assessment is a very detailed study of the water system to identify potential problems and determine, if possible, why an E. coli MCL violation has occurred or why total coliform bacteria have been found in our water system, or both, on multiple occasions. Term Definition MCL Maximum Contaminant Level: The highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the MCLGs as feasible using the best available treatment technology. MCLG Maximum Contaminant Level Goal: The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety. MFL million fibers per liter MRDL Maximum residual disinfectant level: The highest level of a disinfectant allowed in drinking water. There is convincing evidence that addition of a disinfectant is necessary for control of microbial contaminants. MRDLG Maximum residual disinfectant level goal: The level of a drinking water disinfectant below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MRDLGs do not reflect the benefits of the use of disinfectants to control microbial contaminants. mrem/year millirems per year (a measure of radiation absorbed by the body) NTU Nephelometric Turbidity Units pCi/l picocuries per liter (a measure of radioactivity) ppm parts per million, or milligrams per liter (mg/l) ppb parts per billion, or micrograms per liter (ug/l) ppt parts per trillion, or nanograms per liter ppq parts per quadrillion, or picograms per liter PHGS PHGS: Public Health Groundwater Standards are found in NR 140 Groundwater Quality. The concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, poses a health risk and may require a system to post a public notice. RPHGS RPHGS: Recommended Public Health Groundwater Standards: Groundwater standards proposed by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services. The concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, poses a health risk and may require a system to post a public notice. SMCL Secondary drinking water standards or Secondary Maximum Contaminant Levels for contaminants that affect taste, odor, or appearance of the drinking water. The SMCLs do not represent health standards. TCR Total Coliform Rule TT Treatment Technique: A required process intended to reduce the level of a contaminant in drinking water. Detected Contaminants Your water was tested for many contaminants last year. We are allowed to monitor for some contaminants less frequently than once a year. The following tables list only those contaminants which were detected in your water. If a contaminant was detected last year, it would appear in the following tables without a sample date. If the contaminant was not monitored last year, but was detected within the last 5 years, it will appear in the tables below along with the sample date.

No Corrosion of household plumbing systems; Erosion of natural deposits Additional Health Information If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing. Maple Bluff Waterworks is responsible for providing high quality drinking water but cannot control the variety of materials used in plumbing components. When your water has been sitting for several hours, you can minimize the potential for lead exposure by flushing your tap for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking. If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may wish to have your water tested. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline or at www.epa.gov/safewater/lead. Purchased Water Our water system purchases water from MADISON WATER UTILITY. In addition to the detected contaminants listed above, these are the results from MADISON WATER UTILITY. More about the purchased Water The Village of Maple Bluff primarily receives water from Well 7 and, to a lesser extent, Well 11. Enclosed are the water quality data (inorganic and volatile organic test results) specific to these two wells. You will note that the tables show test results for some unregulated contaminants – hexavalent chromium, dioxane, and strontium, for example. Madison’s Water Utility continues to monitor these substances beyond state and federal requirements, and Madison Water Utility continues to routinely test all its drinking water wells for up to 30 PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances). At least one PFAS was found in ten Madison wells in 2023. Levels of PFOA & PFOS, which are now regulated in Wisconsin, are well below the Maximum Contaminant Level, MCL, set at 70 ng/L. The enclosed PFAS data tables show all PFAS test results for Wells 7 and 11 between 2021 and 2023.

All those samples came back clean. We also did Lead and Copper testing. If you want to see those results, please contact Paul Elliott at 608-244-3048 and he can print out those results. We are proud to inform our residents that the Village of Maple Bluff doesn’t have any Lead service lines in the Village. The Village of Maple Bluff was required to take VOC (Volatile Organic Chemicals) 3 times in 2023 and all of those tests were returned with no issues with the Water quality, and if you wanted to review those test results you can reach out to Paul Elliott and he can print them out for you. The Village currently has 3 people that can take Water samples for the predetermined locations, so if you have any questions about your water quality, just reach out to the Public Works Department and we will try to answer any questions you may have. Thank you.

No watercraft or watercraft trailer may be stored at Marina Park except upon the Village’s acceptance of a Boat Storage Application and Agreement. 2. A resident with an accepted Application may renew the Agreement for a consecutive season by applying for the next season by February 29 and paying the applicable fees as stated on the application. Non-resident renewals will depend upon available space. No application will be accepted from any applicant who owes the Village for any charges previously incurred for use of the facility. 3. The Village, in the event of high water or emergency, may require that all personal property be removed by the tenant. In the event items are not removed by the tenant, the Village may have them removed and require payment for the removal and storage. 4. All boats stored on hoists must always be raised to the highest lift position. Never tie any boats to the pier. Tenants will be held liable for any damage caused to the pier by their or their guests’ actions. 5. All boats and watercraft trailers not renting storage space during the winter term must be removed by 11:59pm on October 14, 2024. Any items that remain in the marina after said time will be assessed a $100.00 penalty. 6. For in-water renters, all hoists at the removal date must be placed in the highest position. Any lift not raised to the top position will be assessed a $50.00 penalty. 7. As of the 2019 season, all hoists can be a maximum of 24’ in length and a maximum of 10.5’ in width. Hoists, currently installed at the marina that exceed this rule will be grandfathered. 8. All accessory items on hoists (solar panels, solar arms, antennas, utility boxes, batteries, and battery boxes, etc.) must be removed at the end of the season. Any items not removed will be removed by the Village’s contractor and will be charged to the user. The Village Contractor is not responsible for damaged accessory items on hoists for failure to remove. 9. The Village will maintain separate waiting lists for resident and non-resident applicants if the demand exceeds available space. Non-residents will be eligible for land storage space if no residents are waiting. Space will be made available annually to applicants in order on the waiting lists and as otherwise provided by the Village Administration. 10. Except as provided by Village policy or by written agreement with the Village Administrator or designee, the applicant must own or intend to acquire the boat and/ or watercraft trailer which is the subject of the application. Intention to acquire means the applicant has a contract to purchase more than fifty (50) percent interest by May 1 and must provide proof of sale completed by May 15 of the year of first application. Applicants must have the requisite ownership interest, which interest must be reflected in its certificate of title. The applicant shall produce a current title upon Village request. 11. All renters must provide a copy and maintain current registration in the applicant’s name. 12. Once an application has been approved, the applicant shall not (i) sublease the Space or (ii) otherwise allow any other person to use the Space for any item not described in the application. 13. If a boat or watercraft trailer has multiple owners, the Village will only communicate with and respond to the person(s) disclosed on the Application. 14. Storage is limited to lifts, boats, and watercraft trailers as described in the application. Any nonconforming items will be removed, and the applicant and/or owner will be charged for all associated moving and storage costs. No items may be stored under or on top of boats and trailers. Trailers and lifts shall be used only to hold boats. All equipment shall be kept inside the boat. No vehicle may be parked in a space without written permission from the Village Administration. Items left inside boats shall be properly secured and locked. The Village is not responsible for items that may be lost or stolen. 15. All boats must be on trailers except boats on hoists and boats at shoreline storage. 16. Shoreline spaces are intended for small multi-hull sailing vessels without trailers. 17. All boats may only be covered with properly fitted covers. No tarps shall be allowed from April 15 to October 15. Tarps may be used only in winter provided they are in good repair and are tightly secured. Shrink wrap is the preferred method of winter storage if owner does not have properly fitted cover. 18. Watercraft trailers, hoists and boats must be in good repair and in working condition. Notification will be provided to tenants with a call to action for any vessel/trailer not in good repair. 19. No vehicles may be parked in storage spaces at any other location in the Marina which blocks traffic flow or impedes access for emergency responders. 20. All users and guests must yield to Maple Bluff Fire Department personnel and vessels. 21. All items shall be promptly removed upon Village request. 22. Fees are nonrefundable under any circumstances, including the applicant’s failure to use the storage space and/or facilities. 23. The Village encourages all tenants to use their slips and land storage space and reserves the right to ask tenants who did not use their space to vacate the following year to allow usage by residents on the waiting list. Enforcement of the above rules will be done through the administrative staff of the Village of Maple Bluff. Failure to comply with the above policies may result in an immediate termination of lease and non-renewal in subsequent years.
