Ordinance 26-003 Detachment of a Portion County I City Boundary South of South Main Street north to the north side of Columbia Street.

Ordinance 26-003 Detachment of Land from the City of Oconto Falls to the Town of Stiles, WI. An annexation for a portion of County I from the City of Oconto Falls to the Town of Stiles was completed back in August 2025. Following the annexation however, the land possession was never transferred over from the Town and County to the City in 2025 by the State of Wisconsin, due to the Wisconsin Department of Transportation, and Wisconsin Department of Administration. Due to errors found in the legal documentation maps from the 1966 and 1973 annexations of Town of Oconto Falls property to the City that covers the area of the High School and Elementary School in 1966 and Cemetery property in 1973. The City has been working with the City Attorney, and surveyor to correct the legal descriptions and maps from the 1966 and 1973 Annexations for a number of months, and the last part of the correction is the amending of the 25-007 ordinance annexing the property. The city has been working to start a detachment process of this annexation but before that could happen the errors form 1966 and 1973 need to have an affidavit of Correction filed and amend the Annexation Ordinance per Department of Administration and Department of Transportation. The Town of Stiles Chair Jason Flynn has been updated as part of the communications with this process. The City is now to the step to have Planning Commission set the public hearing on the detachment of a portion of County I, in order to start the detachment process. Planning Commission held a Public Hearing on June 30th, 2026 and there were no concerns and Planning Commission approved and referred to the Common Council.

Planning Recommendation to Council for updates to form and bill contractors for unresolved repairs. Deputy Clerk Friedman explained that for companies like WE Energies to receive an Excavation Permit/ Right of Way Permit they submit an application and maps to the Deputy Clerk. Deputy Clerk Friedman then gathers all information and gets that information to the Street Superintendent and Utilities to review the paperwork to make sure it is ok for the company to come in and do the work at the location. There have not been any issues in the past but recently there has been a lot of complaints from the community Common Council July 14, 2026 Page 5 that the workers have not left the area in good condition. This has been brought to the attention of the companies but there were still issues after they had come out and fixed it. The current Excavation/ Right of Way application terms does not have wording in the application to bill the applicant company and contractor if the City must do unresolved repair work ourselves or have it hired out. The proposed amendment to the application would cover the costs the City would incur to do the uncompleted repairs.

At the time of either of these two events, the assessment may be paid in full in one lump sum payment or in installments over five years at an annual interest rate of 7% APR. In the event option #3 is chosen to defer payment of the special assessment, interest will not be charged during the deferral period. However, once either of the events described in option #3 takes place (the property benefits from the improvement or change of ownership occurs) interest will begin accruing. Unless you notify the deputy clerk at City Hall otherwise, the City will assume you have chosen option #3 above. The City was just made aware of this with this letter with terms.

Conduct the hearing according to procedures under state law (sec 70.47(8)) Property Owner: Jay Walton via phone called at 5:15pm Assessor: Accurate Appraisal, LLC Representative Dana Remien Summary of Discussion: Jay Walton disputed in regards to property 307 Quincy Street, Oconto Falls WI. 54154. The current assessed value of $124,200 exceeds what similar homes in the area have gone for. With no updates and built from 1908 he is estimating the value of the house at $85,000. Assessor Dana Remien explained that Accurate Assessor did an onsite visit last year when the home was assessed at $144,200 after the onsite visit with the updated information the home was lowered $124,200. There were three homes sold in the City that are comparable to property 307 Quincy Street. With those comparables the median sale price of $146,571. This would place Walton property at under value but with the conditional issues of that home it should stay at $144,200. The land value is $36,100 and home dwelling as poor with and grade level of D and value is $88,100. The home is still livable. The assessor cannot legally bring down the value of the house any more. MOTION: BAHRKE/ WIRTZ Motion for the BOR accept the Active Assessment of property located at 307 Quincy Street for the amount of $124,200 from Accurate Assessment. Roll Call – Bahrke-aye, Wirtz-aye, Coopman-aye, Revolinski-Aye MOTION CARRIED Property Owner: Rick Dallmann in person Assessor: Accurate Appraisal, LLC Representative Dana Remien Summary of Discussion: Rick disputed in regards to property 111 Pine Street. The current assessed value the land value is $24,400 and improvement value $128,400 totaling $152,800. The following questions were asked by Mr. Dallmann; • Why was our local assessor not used and where is Accurate Assessor based out of? There was a request for proposal submitted a couple of years ago R&R submitted a proposal along with Accurate. At that time City Council decided to go with Accurate Assessing that is based out of Menasha. • Was the property compared to a house with a finished basement? No 111 Pine Street has a crawl space so it was compared to other properties with a crawl space or no basement. • Why is my house at 111 Pine Street being assessed at new home value? The house is being assessed at market value. This is per the Department of Revenue for the State of BOARD OF REVIEW – July 15, 2026, Page 6 Wisconsin. Wisconsin is a market state. This would be homes in the area like 111 Pine Street that sell. With comparables to homes in the area, they have market value of $210,000. • With my house having an air condition units and other home did not for comparables what is it worth? This depends on the size of the home and air conditioning unit. • What was the average increase for home owners in 2024- 2025? The average increase was 93.15.

Gary Steffens compared his property to other building in the area that had less square footage than his building some and their assessments are less than his and was wanting to know and understand why. Accurate Appraisal, LLC Representative Dana Remien stated in 2025 the property assessment went from just over one million dollars to $481,400. Sales comparisons through out the state based on COSTAR which is based off commercial properties shows the median square footage for the state of Wisconsin is fifty-five dollars per square foot and the 215 Bob Hammond property is assessed at $37.37. The valuation placed on 2026 was based on the two new buildings that were completed in 2025 for the assessment cycle for 2026. Only the two new buildings were added to the assessment.

On or Before 10/31/2026 Territory Amendment No. 1 to Tax Increment Finance District No. 3 City of Oconto Falls 2 SECTION II Introduction and Purpose The City of Oconto Falls has identified a need to expand its economic base through business development. In order to promote development, the City is seeking to amend Tax Incremental Finance District (TID) No. 3 . The amendment of TID No. 3 will allow the City to make certain public improvements to the designated area so that business growth can occur. Anticipated growth, combined with the City’s commitment toward development, will ensure sufficient tax increment to retire all debt issued by the District for improvements. These improvements will allow the City to attract and retain potential development, and encourage further private investment in local businesses. The business development that is anticipated to occur will provide long-term tax benefits to both the City and all other overlying taxing jurisdictions. A: Summary of Findings In amending TID No. 3, the City of Oconto Falls has made the following findings, consistent with Section 66.1105 of Wisconsin Statutes: • Activities and improvements to the existing and amended TID No. 3 are intended to encourage and attract business growth in the City. • The improvement to the existing and amended area is likely to encourage, develop, and maintain a strong growth pattern in the City, taking advantage of major transportation routes through the City. • The improvement to the area is likely to maximize private investment within the existing and amended TID No. 3 and significantly enhance the value of substantially all other real estate in the District. • The improvement to the area is likely to make currently underdeveloped areas of the City more attractive by providing necessary and desired public improvements, which are compatible and feasible with existing systems. • The improvement to the area is likely to encourage and promote conformity with the City's land use policies and procedures. • The development in the existing and amended area would not take place in the absence of the improvements stated in the Project Plan. • The TID No. 3 is declared to be a “Mixed-use District” and at least 50% of the land in TID No. 3 has been classified as suitable for mixed -use development, as defined in s.66.1105(2)(cm). • The equalized value of the taxable property of the District plus the aggregate value increment of all existing districts within the City does not exceed 12% of the total value of equalized taxable property within the City. • The estimated percentage of the territory within the District that is devoted to retail business will not exceed 35% at the end of the District’s expenditure period. • The newly platted residential development within the District is less than 35% of the total land area. • Any vacant property within the TID is suitable for mixed-use development.

B: Project Cost Summary Table 3 lists the estimated total expenditures for each project category. This format follows Wisconsin Department of Revenue guidance on detailed project costs (pe-209), which states the project list should include “estimated expenditures expected for each major category of public improvements.” It is important to note that this Project Plan is not meant to be an appropriation of funds for specific projects, but a framework with which to manage projects. All costs identified are preliminary estimates made prior to design considerations, or engineering studies, and are subject to change after planning is complete. All of the customary expenses are considered in these estimates, including but not limited to: legal fees, engineering fees, architectural fees, planning fees, surveying and mapping fees, inspection, construction costs, materials and apparatus, restoration work, permits, reports, judgments, claims for damages and other expenses.

The City reserves the right to increase the costs to reflect inflationary increases and other unforeseen or uncontrollable circumstances between 2023 and the time of construction/implementation, such as higher than anticipated financing costs. The City reserves the right to increase and decrease particular project costs within the Total TID Expenditure budget estimate without amending this Project Plan. For example, reallocating funds from one project category to another. Wisconsin Statutes do not obligate the City to complete all of the proposed projects listed in the Project Plan; however, the expenditure period for TID No. 3 is limited to September 21, 2023 through September 21, 2043. The City retains the right to change the scope and/or timing of projects implemented as they are individually authorized by the City Council, without further amending this Project Plan. Public debt and expenditures should be made at the pace private development occurs to assure increment is sufficient to cover expenses. The needs of the City and the performance of the TID will be reviewed annually to determine if change is required to any of the proposed activities. Should the needs of the City change, projects may have to be slightly or substantially altered or even eliminated. This allocation of increments is preliminary and is subject to adjustment based upon the implementation of the Plan.

Stat. 66.1105(2)(f).2. • The cost of constructing or expanding administrative buildings, police and fire buildings, libraries, community and government al buildings and school buildings, unless the administrative buildings, police and fire buildings, libraries and community and governmental buildings were damaged or destroyed before January 1, 1997, by a natural disaster. • The cost of constructing or expanding any facility, except a parking structure, if the City generally finances similar facilities only with utility user fees. • General government operating expenses, unrelated to the planning or development of a TID. • Cash grants made by the City to owners, lessees, or developers of land that is located within the TID unless the grant recipient has signed a development agreement with the City, a copy of which shall be retained by the City in the official records for that TID. Non-project costs are public works projects that only partly benefit the TID or are not eligible to be paid with tax increments. Examples of non- project costs include projects undertaken within the TID as part of the implementation of this Project Plan, t he costs of which are paid fully or in part by impact fees, grants, or special assessments. Other examples include public works projects that only partly benefit the TID, such as a new water tower which serves properties both inside and outside of the TID, and its ½ - mile boundary. That portion of the total project costs allocable to properties outside of the TID, and its ½ - mile boundary, would be a non-project cost. No ineligible project costs were identified at the time this Project Plan was considered for adoption. SECTION V Economic Feasibility The economic feasibility of TID No. 3 depends on the tax incremental revenue generated from within the TID. There are three critical components in determining the economic feasibility of a TID: New development increases in property value, inflation driven increases in property value, and the change in the full value tax rate. In projecting the future increment and income generated by TID No. 3, assumptions were made for each of the above-mentioned critical components. Based on the projected values in Table 5 and projected costs in Table 6, the TID is feasible. Territory Amendment No. 1 to Tax Increment Finance District No. 3 City of Oconto Falls 10 A: New Development Activities Since the creation of TID #3 in 2023, the District’s value equalized value increment over the last three years has grown to $732,500. The TID is projected to realize $72,582,500 in new value over its anticipated 20-year life. Table 4: Anticipated New Development Activities YEAR TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT PROJECTED VALUE 2029 Multi- & Single-Family Homes $2,700,000 2030 Multi- & Single-Family Homes $4,700,000 2031 Multi- & Single-Family Homes $3,400,000 2032 Single-Family Homes $1,400,000 2033 Single-Family Homes $4,000,000 2034 Single-Family Homes $4,000,000 2035 Single-Family Homes $4,000,000 2036 Multi- & Single-Family Homes $7,000,000 2037 Multi- & Single-Family Homes $7,000,000 2038 Industrial Development $10,000,000 2039 Industrial/Commercial, & Residential Development $5,000,000 2040 Single-Family Homes $3,000,000 2041 Commercial/Indistrial Expansion $1,750,000 2042 Revaluation Increase $12,700,000 2043 Commercial/Indistrial Expansion $1,200,000 TOTAL $71,850,000 B: Tax Rate The full value tax rate is assumed to be $16.78 per $1,000 of assessed value and remain constant through 2043. C: Projected Income Assuming that the new development activities occur as planned the TID is expected to generate $9,065,145 of tax increment through 2043. Table 5 presents the projected income for TID No. 3 commencing in 2023 and running over the life of the District to the year 2043.Table 6 presents the projected annual performance of the TID’s income and the proposed project costs. Based on the projected values in Table 5 and projected costs in Table 6, the TID is feasible.

Table 7: Analysis of Impact on Overlying Tax Jurisdictions Jurisdiction % Share of Taxes (2025) Share of Projected Increment School District of Oconto Falls 44.4% $4,024,927 Northeast Wisconsin Technical College 3.1% $281,020 Oconto County 17.0% $1,541,075 City of Oconto Falls 35.5% $3,218,128 100% $9,065,150 Source: Wisconsin Department of Revenue “Town, City and City Taxes Levied 2025 - Collected 2026” SECTION VI Financing Under Wisconsin law there are several methods of borrowing, some of which apply against a municipality’s debt limit, and others that do not apply against the limit. The state sets this limit at five percent (5%) of the municipality’s total equalized prope rty valuation. The feasibility of financing specific projects at any given time using a particular method can be determined based on the municipality’s current fiscal situation, anticipated non- TID related capital needs, the amount of money to be borrowed, interest rates, and lending terms. Possible funding sources include: General Obligation Borrowing General Obligation Borrowing includes all types of municipal borrowing from banks, the State Trust Fund, or other lending institutions. This method of borrowing requires little effort or legal expenditures and works particularly well for smaller projects. General Obligation Bonding General Obligation Bonds are a debt instrument backed by the full faith and credit of the municipality and its ability to raise revenue through taxation. In the case of default, the municipality is liable for repayment of the debt. As a result, this type of debt can often result in lower interest rates than regular General Obligation Borrowing. The high fees associated with the issuance of the bonds makes them more attractive for larger projects. Mortgage Revenue Bonds Revenue Bonds are a debt instrument backed by revenue generated from the project. These types of bonds are also mainly used for larger debt issuances due to their relatively high associated fees. They are typically issued by municipal bodies that raise revenues on a fee for service type basis, such as the Water & Sewer Utility. These types of bonds generally do not count against a municipality’s five percent debt limit. Special Assessment “B” Bonds Territory Amendment No. 1 to Tax Increment Finance District No. 3 City of Oconto Falls 14 Special Assessment “B” Bonds are a debt instrument backed by the municipality’s ability to raise revenue from special assessments charged to persons, organizations, or businesses receiving benefits from the project. These bonds also do not normally count against a municipality’s debt limit. Federal/State Loan and Grant Programs The State and Federal Government often sponsor grant and loan programs that municipalities may potentially use to supplement TID expenditures or provide financing for capital costs which positively impact the District. These programs include Wisconsin Community Development Block Grants, Rural Development Administration Community Facility Loan/Grants, Transportation Economic Assistance Grants, and Economic Development Administration Grants. These programs require local match funding to insure State and Federal participation in the project. Territory Amendment No. 1 to Tax Increment Finance District No. 3 City of Oconto Falls 15 SECTION VII Proposed Zoning Changes The City of Oconto Falls is zoned in accordance with an ordinance formally adopted by the City Council. Based on the current zoning classifications within TID No. 3 , no zoning changes are necessary as a result of amending TID No. 3. SECTION VIII Proposed Changes in the Community Development Plan, Map, Building Codes & Ordinance The amendment of TID No. 3 will not require any changes to the existing community development plans or the City’s municipal codes or ordinances. The projects proposed in the Project Plan are consistent with the development policies of the municipality, as well as existing building codes, maps, and ordinances. SECTION IX Relocation No persons are expected to be displaced or relocated as a result of proposed projects in the TID; however, if relocation were to become necessary in the future, the following is the method proposed by the City or Community Development Authority for displacement or relocation. Before negotiations begin for the acquisition of property or easements, all property owners will be contacted to determine if there will be displaced persons as defined by Wisconsin Statues and Administrative Rules. If it appears there will be displaced persons, all property owners and prospective displaced persons will be provided an informational pamphlet prepared by the Wisconsin Department of Administration (DOA). The City will file a relocation plan with the DOA and shall keep records as required in Wisconsin Statutes 32.27. The City will provide each owner a full narrative appraisal, a map showing the owners of all property affected by the proposed project and a list of neighboring landowners to whom offers are being made as required by law. SECTION X Statement Indicating How the TID Promotes Orderly Development of Municipality TID No. 3 will promote orderly development in the City of Oconto Falls by marketing and attracting economic activity to a specified area. This allows the City greater control over economic activity in order to ensure that development and/or growth is orderly, harmonious with adjoining land uses, and enhances the health and welfare of the community. SECTION XI Legal Opinion An opinion from the City legal counsel regarding the Project Plan for TID No. 3 and its compliance with s. 66.1105 of Wisconsin Statutes is provided in Appendix G. To Be Provided Upon Review of All Documents. Territory Amendment No. 1 to Tax Increment Finance District No. 3 City of Oconto Falls 16 SECTION XII Glossary of TIF Related Terms Base Value The aggregate value, as equalized by DOR, of the real, personal, and non -exempt municipal- owned property located within the TID as of the valuation date. Equalized Value The estimate of the State of Wisconsin Department of Revenue of the full market value of property; used to apportion property tax levies of counties, school districts and municipalities among tax districts. Expenditure Period The time during which expenses may be incurred for the implementation of the approved project plan and the completion of the projects outlined therein. The current maximum expenditure period for all districts ends five years before the un-extended maximum life of the TID. Non-Project Costs As part of the project plan, there may be investments that are not eligible for TIF, or that are paid for with revenue other than tax increment revenue – such as a grant. Project Plan The plan, properly submitted and approved by the Wisconsin Department of Revenue, for the financial development or redevelopment of a TID, including all properly approved amendments. Tax Incremental District (TID) The contiguous geographical area within a municipality consisting solely of whole units of property as are assessed for general property tax purposed not including railroad rights of way, rivers or highways, or wetlands as defined in Wisconsin Statutes 23.32. Tax Incremental Financing (TIF) A mechanism for financing development and redevelopment projects whereby property tax revenue from increased property values in a defined geographic district is used to pay for public improvements, such as roads, sewer and water lines. Once the improvemen ts are paid for, the property taxes go to the municipality, county and school districts. Tax Increment The taxes levied by all overlying taxing jurisdictions on the difference between the base value and the current value of the TID, also known as the value increment. These taxes are sent to the municipality who operates the TID, and used to pay for the approved project costs laid out in the project plan. Tax Rate The rate, usually expressed in terms of dollars per one thousand dollars of assessed valuation, at which taxes are levied against the total assessed valuation of the municipality. Due to changes in the total assessed valuation of the municipality from year to year, the tax levy change and the Territory Amendment No. 1 to Tax Increment Finance District No. 3 City of Oconto Falls 17 tax rate change will not be the same. The tax rate change reflects what impact the property owner will see in their total taxes. Value Increment The difference in value between the base value and the current value. This is the amount of property value that can be attributed to the TIF investment, and as such is the portion of the tax base that is used to generate the tax increment that pays for the investment.

The area of interest (AOI) covers the entire existing 7.25-acre parcel – to be split although development activities will likely remain towards the south end of the AOI. Field work on this site took place 5/10/26 just at the start of the growing season and 3 sample points were done in areas most likely to meet wetland parameters based on the site review. Data collected within these points including soils, vegetation, and hydrologic indicators were used to determine if wetlands exist within the AOI in accordance with standard delineation procedures. 1.2 Investigator Qualifications This report describes the methodology and results of the wetland delineation conducted by Candra Carter, a consultant for Branch River Testing Services, LLC. Branch River Testing Services provides an array of environmental and land evaluation services, with a primary focus on soil and site evaluations for Private Onsite Wastewater Treatment Systems (POWTS). Candra holds a Certified Soil Tester License and has been soil testing for 7 years. Candra has a B.S in Soil Science and Land Management from the University of Wisconsin – Stevens Point with a Wetland Science Certificate. She has also completed the Critical Insights for Wetland & Waterway Professionals administered by the University of Wisconsin – Lacrosse in 2025 & 2026. Candra is recognized as an assured wetland delineator by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR). 2.0 Methodology The wetland investigation followed the protocols and guidance outlined in the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) 1987 Wetland Delineation Manual, the Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual: Northcentral and Northeast Region (Version 2.0, 2012), and Guidance for Submittal of Delineation Reports to the St. Paul District Army Corps of Engineers and the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (2015). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S Amry Corps of Engineers (USACE) jointly define wetlands as: “Those areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or ground water at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and that under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions. ” According to the procedures indicated in the USACE 1987 Manual and the Northcentral and Northeast Regional Supplement under normal circumstances, one positive indicator is required from each of the three wetland parameters: hydrology, vegetation, and soils for an area to be classified as wetland. 2.1 Offsite Review Prior to completing the field investigation, a review of the available public mapping resources was done. This review helps to identify specific areas in the project area that have wetland potential so they can be investigated in greater detail in the field. The mapping and other resources reviewed include: • 2’ Contours from Statewide Mapping (Figure 2) • Wisconsin DEM and Hillshade from LiDAR (Figure 3) • WDNR Wisconsin Wetland Inventory (WWI) Map (Figure 4) • U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service National Wetland Inventory Map • Historical Aerial Review from Wisconsin Aerial Imagery Finder • Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Web Soil Survey (WSS) Soil (Appendix D) 3.0 Results and Discussion 3.1 Off-Site Review 3.1.1 Existing Wetland Mapping The offsite review indicates a fringe of forested, broad-leaf deciduous type wetlands mapped in the northwest portion of the AOI by the Wisconsin Wetland Inventory. 3.1.2 Historical Aerial Imagery A review of the available historical aerial imagery from the Wisconsin Historic Aerial Imagery Finder was used and no areas with evidence of inundation were evident. 3.2 Field Investigation 3.2.1 Site Conditions & Hydrology Formal wetland delineations must be performed during the growing season to best evaluate certain parameters. This evaluation took place at the beginning of the growing season. Nearby weather station GREEN BAY A S INTLAP estimates the growing season to be from April 24th to October 13th using the 50% probability of the first and last 28°F temperature. The soil temperature measured at 12” was 48 degrees Fahrenheit confirming the growing season had begun. Alongside this, woody vegetation had begun to bud. The antecedent precipitation tool determined the prior period before the investigation to be wetter than normal, see Appendix E. Wetland hydrology indicators were met at all sample points, see wetland data sheets for full descriptions. 3.2.2 Vegetation Vegetation within the study area was evaluated in accordance with the routine on-site methodology outlined in the 1987 USACE Wetland Delineation Manual and regional supplement. Plant species were identified within the sample area and classified by wetland indicator status using the Northcentral and Northeast Region National Wetland Indicator Plant List – 2022. Vegetation sampling was conducted using standard plot sizes with a 30’ radius for trees, 15’ radius for shrubs, 5’ radius for herbaceous species and 30’ radius for woody vines. The dominance test and prevalence index are utilized to determine if hydrophytic vegetation is present. None of the sampling points met hydrophytic vegetation, see full vegetation sampling in Appendix B. 3.2.3 Soils Existing soil mapping indicates the entire AOI to be the Solona fine sandy loam series which is considered predominantly non-hydric in WI. There is also the Kiva series mapped in close proximity which is nonhydric in WI. The soils observed correspond to the somewhat poorly drained mapped Solona series and the Kiva is likely found within the AOI at higher elevations. No hydric soil indicators were met within the sample points. 4.0 Conclusion Through the standard procedures and expectations outlined by the USACOE Wetland Delineation Manual and the Regional Supplement for the Northcentral and Northeast region, it was confirmed that no wetlands exist within the AOI. Wetland hydrology was met within microtopographic depressions, however, hydrophytic vegetation and hydric soils were lacking. Future development activities within this area does not impose risk to any wetlands. 5.0 Literature Cited Black, M.R., and E.J. Judziewicz.

They highlight soil limitations that affect various land uses and provide information about the properties of the soils in the survey areas. Soil surveys are designed for many different users, including farmers, ranchers, foresters, agronomists, urban planners, community officials, engineers, developers, builders, and home buyers. Also, conservationists, teachers, students, and specialists in recreation, waste disposal, and pollution control can use the surveys to help them understand, protect, or enhance the environment. Various land use regulations of Federal, State, and local governments may impose special restrictions on land use or land treatment. Soil surveys identify soil properties that are used in making various land use or land treatment decisions. The information is intended to help the land users identify and reduce the effects of soil limitations on various land uses. The landowner or user is responsible for identifying and complying with existing laws and regulations. Although soil survey information can be used for general farm, local, and wider area planning, onsite investigation is needed to supplement this information in some cases. Examples include soil quality assessments (http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/ portal/nrcs/main/soils/health/) and certain conservation and engineering applications. For more detailed information, contact your local USDA Service Center (https://offices.sc.egov.usda.gov/locator/app?agency=nrcs) or your NRCS State Soil Scientist (http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/portal/nrcs/detail/soils/contactus/? cid=nrcs142p2_053951). Great differences in soil properties can occur within short distances. Some soils are seasonally wet or subject to flooding. Some are too unstable to be used as a foundation for buildings or roads. Clayey or wet soils are poorly suited to use as septic tank absorption fields. A high water table makes a soil poorly suited to basements or underground installations. The National Cooperative Soil Survey is a joint effort of the United States Department of Agriculture and other Federal agencies, State agencies including the Agricultural Experiment Stations, and local agencies. The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) has leadership for the Federal part of the National Cooperative Soil Survey. Information about soils is updated periodically. Updated information is available through the NRCS Web Soil Survey, the site for official soil survey information.

They include a description of the soils and miscellaneous areas and their location on the landscape and tables that show soil properties and limitations affecting various uses. Soil scientists observed the steepness, length, and shape of the slopes; the general pattern of drainage; the kinds of crops and native plants; and the kinds of bedrock. They observed and described many soil profiles. A soil profile is the sequence of natural layers, or horizons, in a soil. The profile extends from the surface down into the unconsolidated material in which the soil formed or from the surface down to bedrock. The unconsolidated material is devoid of roots and other living organisms and has not been changed by other biological activity. Currently, soils are mapped according to the boundaries of major land resource areas (MLRAs). MLRAs are geographically associated land resource units that share common characteristics related to physiography, geology, climate, water resources, soils, biological resources, and land uses (USDA, 2006). Soil survey areas typically consist of parts of one or more MLRA. The soils and miscellaneous areas in a survey area occur in an orderly pattern that is related to the geology, landforms, relief, climate, and natural vegetation of the area. Each kind of soil and miscellaneous area is associated with a particular kind of landform or with a segment of the landform. By observing the soils and miscellaneous areas in the survey area and relating their position to specific segments of the landform, a soil scientist develops a concept, or model, of how they were formed. Thus, during mapping, this model enables the soil scientist to predict with a considerable degree of accuracy the kind of soil or miscellaneous area at a specific location on the landscape. Commonly, individual soils on the landscape merge into one another as their characteristics gradually change. To construct an accurate soil map, however, soil scientists must determine the boundaries between the soils. They can observe only a limited number of soil profiles. Nevertheless, these observations, supplemented by an understanding of the soil-vegetation-landscape relationship, are sufficient to verify predictions of the kinds of soil in an area and to determine the boundaries. Soil scientists recorded the characteristics of the soil profiles that they studied. They noted soil color, texture, size and shape of soil aggregates, kind and amount of rock fragments, distribution of plant roots, reaction, and other features that enable them to identify soils. After describing the soils in the survey area and determining their properties, the soil scientists assigned the soils to taxonomic classes (units). Taxonomic classes are concepts. Each taxonomic class has a set of soil characteristics with precisely defined limits. The classes are used as a basis for comparison to classify soils systematically. Soil taxonomy, the system of taxonomic classification used in the United States, is based mainly on the kind and character of soil properties and the arrangement of horizons within the profile. After the soil 5 scientists classified and named the soils in the survey area, they compared the individual soils with similar soils in the same taxonomic class in other areas so that they could confirm data and assemble additional data based on experience and research. The objective of soil mapping is not to delineate pure map unit components; the objective is to separate the landscape into landforms or landform segments that have similar use and management requirements. Each map unit is defined by a unique combination of soil components and/or miscellaneous areas in predictable proportions. Some components may be highly contrasting to the other components of the map unit. The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way diminishes the usefulness or accuracy of the data. The delineation of such landforms and landform segments on the map provides sufficient information for the development of resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, onsite investigation is needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous areas. Soil scientists make many field observations in the process of producing a soil map. The frequency of observation is dependent upon several factors, including scale of mapping, intensity of mapping, design of map units, complexity of the landscape, and experience of the soil scientist. Observations are made to test and refine the soil-landscape model and predictions and to verify the classification of the soils at specific locations. Once the soil-landscape model is refined, a significantly smaller number of measurements of individual soil properties are made and recorded. These measurements may include field measurements, such as those for color, depth to bedrock, and texture, and laboratory measurements, such as those for content of sand, silt, clay, salt, and other components. Properties of each soil typically vary from one point to another across the landscape. Observations for map unit components are aggregated to develop ranges of characteristics for the components. The aggregated values are presented. Direct measurements do not exist for every property presented for every map unit component. Values for some properties are estimated from combinations of other properties. While a soil survey is in progress, samples of some of the soils in the area generally are collected for laboratory analyses and for engineering tests. Soil scientists interpret the data from these analyses and tests as well as the field-observed characteristics and the soil properties to determine the expected behavior of the soils under different uses. Interpretations for all of the soils are field tested through observation of the soils in different uses and under different levels of management. Some interpretations are modified to fit local conditions, and some new interpretations are developed to meet local needs. Data are assembled from other sources, such as research information, production records, and field experience of specialists. For example, data on crop yields under defined levels of management are assembled from farm records and from field or plot experiments on the same kinds of soil. Predictions about soil behavior are based not only on soil properties but also on such variables as climate and biological activity. Soil conditions are predictable over long periods of time, but they are not predictable from year to year. For example, soil scientists can predict with a fairly high degree of accuracy that a given soil will have a high water table within certain depths in most years, but they cannot predict that a high water table will always be at a specific level in the soil on a specific date. After soil scientists located and identified the significant natural bodies of soil in the survey area, they drew the boundaries of these bodies on aerial photographs and Custom Soil Resource Report 6 identified each as a specific map unit. Aerial photographs show trees, buildings, fields, roads, and rivers, all of which help in locating boundaries accurately.

The map unit descriptions, along with the maps, can be used to determine the composition and properties of a unit. A map unit delineation on a soil map represents an area dominated by one or more major kinds of soil or miscellaneous areas. A map unit is identified and named according to the taxonomic classification of the dominant soils. Within a taxonomic class there are precisely defined limits for the properties of the soils. On the landscape, however, the soils are natural phenomena, and they have the characteristic variability of all natural phenomena. Thus, the range of some observed properties may extend beyond the limits defined for a taxonomic class. Areas of soils of a single taxonomic class rarely, if ever, can be mapped without including areas of other taxonomic classes. Consequently, every map unit is made up of the soils or miscellaneous areas for which it is named and some minor components that belong to taxonomic classes other than those of the major soils. Most minor soils have properties similar to those of the dominant soil or soils in the map unit, and thus they do not affect use and management. These are called noncontrasting, or similar, components. They may or may not be mentioned in a particular map unit description. Other minor components, however, have properties and behavioral characteristics divergent enough to affect use or to require different management. These are called contrasting, or dissimilar, components. They generally are in small areas and could not be mapped separately because of the scale used. Some small areas of strongly contrasting soils or miscellaneous areas are identified by a special symbol on the maps. If included in the database for a given area, the contrasting minor components are identified in the map unit descriptions along with some characteristics of each. A few areas of minor components may not have been observed, and consequently they are not mentioned in the descriptions, especially where the pattern was so complex that it was impractical to make enough observations to identify all the soils and miscellaneous areas on the landscape. The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way diminishes the usefulness or accuracy of the data. The objective of mapping is not to delineate pure taxonomic classes but rather to separate the landscape into landforms or landform segments that have similar use and management requirements. The delineation of such segments on the map provides sufficient information for the development of resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, however, Custom Soil Resource Report 11 onsite investigation is needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous areas. An identifying symbol precedes the map unit name in the map unit descriptions. Each description includes general facts about the unit and gives important soil properties and qualities. Soils that have profiles that are almost alike make up a soil series. Except for differences in texture of the surface layer, all the soils of a series have major horizons that are similar in composition, thickness, and arrangement. Soils of one series can differ in texture of the surface layer, slope, stoniness, salinity, degree of erosion, and other characteristics that affect their use. On the basis of such differences, a soil series is divided into soil phases. Most of the areas shown on the detailed soil maps are phases of soil series. The name of a soil phase commonly indicates a feature that affects use or management. For example, Alpha silt loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is a phase of the Alpha series. Some map units are made up of two or more major soils or miscellaneous areas. These map units are complexes, associations, or undifferentiated groups. A complex consists of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas in such an intricate pattern or in such small areas that they cannot be shown separately on the maps. The pattern and proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat similar in all areas. Alpha-Beta complex, 0 to 6 percent slopes, is an example. An association is made up of two or more geographically associated soils or miscellaneous areas that are shown as one unit on the maps. Because of present or anticipated uses of the map units in the survey area, it was not considered practical or necessary to map the soils or miscellaneous areas separately. The pattern and relative proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat similar. Alpha-Beta association, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example. An undifferentiated group is made up of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas that could be mapped individually but are mapped as one unit because similar interpretations can be made for use and management. The pattern and proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas in a mapped area are not uniform. An area can be made up of only one of the major soils or miscellaneous areas, or it can be made up of all of them. Alpha and Beta soils, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example. Some surveys include miscellaneous areas. Such areas have little or no soil material and support little or no vegetation. Rock outcrop is an example.

No aggregation of data has occurred as is done in reports in the Soil Properties and Qualities and Suitabilities and Limitations sections. The reports contain soil interpretive information as well as basic soil properties and qualities. A description of each report (table) is included. Land Classifications This folder contains a collection of tabular reports that present a variety of soil groupings. The reports (tables) include all selected map units and components for each map unit. Land classifications are specified land use and management groupings that are assigned to soil areas because combinations of soil have similar behavior for specified practices. Most are based on soil properties and other factors that directly influence the specific use of the soil. Example classifications include ecological site classification, farmland classification, irrigated and nonirrigated land capability classification, and hydric rating. Hydric Rating by Map Unit (WI) (Birr - Oconto Falls) This Hydric Soil Category rating indicates the components of map units that meet the criteria for hydric soils. Map units are composed of one or more major soil components or soil types that generally make up 20 percent or more of the map unit and are listed in the map unit name, and they may also have one or more minor contrasting soil components that generally make up less than 20 percent of the map unit. Each major and minor map unit component that meets the hydric criteria is rated hydric. The map unit class ratings based on the hydric components present are: WI Hydric, WI Predominantly Hydric, WI Partially Hydric, WI Predominantly Nonhydric, and WI Nonhydric. The report also shows the total representative percentage of each map unit that the hydric components comprise. "WI Hydric" means that all major and minor components listed for a given map unit are rated as being hydric. "WI Predominantly Hydric" means that all major components listed for a given map unit are rated as hydric, and at least one contrasting minor component is not rated hydric."WI Partially Hydric" means that at least one major component listed for a given map unit is rated as hydric, and at 17 least one other major component is not rated hydric. "WI Predominantly Nonhydric" means that no major component listed for a given map unit is rated as hydric, and at least one contrasting minor component is rated hydric. "WI Nonhydric" means no major or minor components for the map unit are rated hydric. The assumption is that the map unit is nonhydric even if none of the components within the map unit have been rated. Hydric soils are defined by the National Technical Committee for Hydric Soils (NTCHS) as soils that formed under conditions of saturation, flooding, or ponding long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions in the upper part (Federal Register, 1994). Under natural conditions, these soils are either saturated or inundated long enough during the growing season to support the growth and reproduction of hydrophytic vegetation. If soils are wet enough for a long enough period of time to be considered hydric, they typically exhibit certain properties that can be easily observed in the field. These visible properties are indicators of hydric soils. The indicators used to make onsite determinations of hydric soils are specified in "Field Indicators of Hydric Soils in the United States" (Vasilas, Hurt, and Noble, 2010). The NTCHS has developed criteria to identify those soil properties unique to hydric soils (Federal Register, 2012). These criteria are used to identify map unit components that normally are associated with wetlands. The criteria use selected soil properties that are described in “Field Indicators of Hydric Soils in the United States” (Vasilas, Hurt, and Noble, 2010), "Soil Taxonomy" (Soil Survey Staff, 1999), "Keys to Soil Taxonomy" (Soil Survey Staff, 2010), and the "Soil Survey Manual" (Soil Survey Division Staff, 1993). The criteria for hydric soils are represented by codes, for example, 2 or 3. Definitions for the codes are as follows: 1. All Histels except for Folistels, and Histosols except for Folists. 2. Soils in Aquic suborders, great groups, or subgroups, Albolls suborder, Historthels great group, Histoturbels great group, Pachic subgroups, or Cumulic subgroups that: A. Based on the range of characteristics for the soil series, will at least in part meet one or more Field Indicators of Hydric Soils in the United States, or B. Show evidence that the soil meets the definition of a hydric soil; 3. Soils that are frequently ponded for long or very long duration during the growing season. A. Based on the range of characteristics for the soil series, will at least in part meet one or more Field Indicators of Hydric Soils in the United States, or B. Show evidence that the soil meets the definition of a hydric soil; 4. Map unit components that are frequently flooded for long duration or very long duration during the growing season that: A. Based on the range of characteristics for the soil series, will at least in part meet one or more Field Indicators of Hydric Soils in the United States, or B. Show evidence that the soil meets the definition of a hydric soil; Hydric Condition: Food Security Act information regarding the ability to grow a commodity crop without removing woody vegetation or manipulating hydrology.

It is recognized by all parties that these assignments provide further opportunities for rapport building, crime prevention, and crime detection. Any work by the SRO in this capacity will be approved by the assigned police department supervisor and will be consistent with the police contract.
