Gazette Article MAY 24

To All;
Please feel free to email your thoughts and opinions re: raising the special assessment tax as noted here in the Janesville Gazette

The bottom line is, and this will be on the agenda for both the June Monthly meeting and the annual meeting on July 30th, we are still attempting to determine what the total cost will be for the contested case hearing.

Will the hearing last 3 days, or 8 days? Will the Wetlands Club recruit other attorneys who represent Madison environmental groups to stonewall our research? Will the RKLD need to retain more attorneys to address each item the Wetlands Club presents? And will the Lake District need to retain more scientists to reinforce the testimony from our current scientists?

Do we see this fight to the end, or do we stick to a $45 per parcel budget and try our case within those limits?

The one thing we do know, is this is the final push for nominally higher, stable year-round water levels.
