9. Discussion and Possible Approval on Operating Structure:
Larry Oehmichen stated that the Colby Fire Commission approved a loan in the amount of $100,000 to

Department currently has 501(c)3 status; there is a possibility that the District may be able to use this
under a name change to the District.
10. Abbotsford Firemen Letter of Understanding, Discussion and Possible Approval:
Discussion was held on the Letter of Understanding from the Abbotsford Fire Department. Areas of
concern:
1. Fundraising dollars-separate accounts will be set up; money will be earmarked and restricted for
the respective departments as old and new money. New money will have a new account number
and be earmarked and restricted to said department. Fund raising activities will require
membership and District chief approval.
2. Standeven embezzlement funds-money recovered will be split between the 3 funding entities by
equalized value as per the 2010 resolution.
3. HazMat-assets need to be worked out through the Clark County Emergency Government.
Equipment was funded by state grants and individual funds. John Neihart stated that Abbotsford
is a level B team and that the state has reduced the level A team to possibly 3 or 4. John Neihart
will contact a level A team to have this equipment transferred to the District. John Neihart stated
that the state would most likely not want the equipment back but that the District should maintain
the HazMat team.
4. Fire Chief for District be hired from outside the district and enforce a written agreement to that-a
job description will be written and open to everyone to apply. The personnel committee will
prepare the job description.
5. All members remain for 3 years-members will need to follow a code of conduct for the District,
reapply for a position and have one year to obtain and/or bring qualifications to up to date if not
met. The District Chief will put a management team in place; reduction in members will happen
through attrition and/or retirement or through disciplinary measures.

8.
Equipment concerns-more specifically equipment purchased with grant or fund raising efforts.
Per John Neihart, to be covered under the District insurance policy, all equipment must be listed
on the Intergovernmental Agreement. If equipment purchased with fund raising proceeds is sold
with Board approval, proceeds from said equipment will be deposited into the fund raising
account earmarked for the department that purchased it.
Members request a seat on the District Board-only elected municipal representatives are allowed
to be Board members due to the District being a governmental entity.
Members requested a letter of protection for 5 years-this is not allowable due to state statutes
and possible change in elected officials.
Discussion was held regarding hiring a chief from within and outside of the District. The Chief will be
accountable to the Board.
Next monthly meeting will be held on June 15, 2016 beginning at 7:30 p.m. at the Colby Town Hall.
11. Consider motion to convene into closed session pursuant to Wisconsin Statute §19.85 (1) (c) for the
purpose of considering the employment, promotion, compensation or performance evaluation data of any
public employee over which the governmental body has jurisdiction or exercises responsibility, specifically
to discuss employment of potential Fire District consultant.
A motion was made by Gerry Anders, second by Nancy O'Brien to consider motion to convene into
closed session pursuant to Wisconsin Statute §19.85 (1) (c) for the purpose of considering the

Central Fire & EMS District Meeting Minutes
May 25, 2016 – 8:30 p.m.
Dorchester Fire Hall
1. Call to Order:
The May 25, 2016 meeting of the Central Fire & EMS District was called to order by Larry Oehmichen, at
8:30 p.m.
2. Meeting posted per statute.
3. Roll Call:
City of Abbotsford, Gerry Anders; City of Colby, Nancy O’Brien; Town of Colby, Larry Oehmichen; Town
of Holton, Pat Tischendorf; Town of Hull, Shane Graffunder; Township of Mayville, Todd Weich; Village of
Dorchester, Randy Cook.
4. Public Discussion:
Pat Tischendorf stated that according to the newspaper it was discussed in April hiring a fire chief. Pat
also stated that he contacted the Towns Association lawyer who stated that Todd Weich is considered an
elected official being that he was appointed to fill a position due to vacancy. It was also noted that there
would be no conflict of interest.
Randy Cook stated that Wayne Rau would like to the approval of hiring an outside resource/consultant
done at the next monthly meeting.
Richard Gumz discussed the existing fund raiser accounts. These funds will be earmarked for each
department.
Larry Oehmichen contacted Attorney Fenner in regard to an appointed official vs. an elected official on
the Board. Either satisfies the requirement. He also discussed with Attorney Fenner the posting and
hiring of an interim chief. Per Attorney Fenner “I am not aware of any state law that requires the position
of an interim chief to be posted, subjected to interview, etc. Section 7.1 provides that the commission
shall make provision for the management of the Fire District; and section 7.2 gives to the commission the
authority to hire and terminate appropriate personnel. There is nothing in the agreement that would
preclude the Commission from hiring the interim chief, without first posting that position.”
Larry Oehmichen also stated that he was very much in favor of having a very open policy of people
attending these Board meetings. He continued “but it was brought to my attention at the meeting on May
18, 2016 after I was interrupted twice by a party questioning the Board's right to make a decision on its
actions. The Fire Board is representatives of a government entity, and as such will and must act within
the laws of the State of Wisconsin. The unjustified interruptions were clearly just that as no laws were
violated nor anywhere close to that. Our meetings operate under Robert's Rules of Order which clearly
gives the Chair the power to remove people or persons who have the intention to disrupt the meeting. I
should hope we would never have to come to that, but as Chair I am more than willing to have open
discussion under Public Comment, or if you feel you have a vital comment to bring up, raise your hand
and ask permission to speak which will be allowed. Any outbursts, from anyone, without the Chair’s
acknowledgment will not be tolerated.”
5. Discussion and possible approval on hiring an outside resource/consultant:
Larry Oehmichen stated that at the April Board meeting he was instructed to seek out some individuals to
assist with the set-up of the Fire District. Larry contacted Andy Schlagel who attended a meeting, but he
is unable to assist with the process; he would more than happy to answer any questions the Board may
have. Larry contacted John Neihart with the Board having some concerns which would not be asked in
open session which is the reason the Board met in closed session. After those concerns were satisfied, a
recommendation was made by Larry Oehmichen to hire John Neihart as a paid consultant. Due to the
fact that many papers that need to be filed would have to have a title, Larry Oehmichen also
23
24
recommended naming him Interim Chief. Larry Oehmichen continued that with John's knowledge and
background, along with the time served as Fire Chief that he would be outstanding to put the District
together. Duties include: 1) obtain all required State and Federal licenses and numbers required for the
new District. 2) Negotiate a new billing fee discount with LifeQuest Services. 3) Prepare the District's
organizational chart. 4) Apply for and obtain a temporary IRS number, FEIN number, and 501c3 nonprofit number for the District. 5) Coordinate the paging protocol between Clark and Marathon Counties. 6)
Obtain titles for all equipment that will be registered and title to the District. 7) Assist with the
implementation of the District's email implementation and a social media presence. 8) Other duties as
may arise from time to time and as may be assigned to the employee.
The term of employment is to 12/31/16 with the option to extend until 12/31/17. John Neihart stated that
he discussed with the Board the maximum length of employment would be 2 years. John Neihart will be
paid an hourly wage of $25/hour. Expected worked hours will be 25-30 hours/week with John Neihart to
schedule his own work time. The District will reimburse John Neihart for mileage while traveling between
stations within the District at state reimbursement rate. There will be no benefits associated with this
position. Start date will be June 6, 2016.
A motion was made by Gerry Anders, second by Pat Tischendorf to hire John Neihart under the terms of
the Limited Term Employment Agreement. Motion carried without opposition.
Next meeting date is June 15, 2016 at the Town of Colby, beginning at 7:30 p.m.
Approval of meeting minutes will be posted on the agendas moving forward.
Shane Graffunder will contact AbbyBank regarding opening the District checking account with the
assistance of Larry Oehmichen. Election of a Board Treasurer will be on the June 15, 2016 agenda.
A motion was made by Pat Tischendorf, second by Todd Weich to adjourn at 8:55 p.m.

Minutes from the Abbotsford Plan Commission held June 24, 2016 in the Abbotsford City Hall
DPW Stuttgen called the meeting to order at 9:30 a.m.
Roll call: Welsh, Medenwaldt, and Jakel (Absent Christensen and Weideman)
Others present: Clerk Lopez, DPW Stuttgen, Todd Trader – MSA and K. O’Brien – Tribune Phonograph
The Pledge of Allegiance was heard.
There were no comment from the public.
Under discuss/review appropriate action related to Galvin Property Site meeting, DPW Stuttgen stated
that he and Todd Trader met with the Army Core of Engineers and the DNR and the previous wetland
delineation report was reviewed. The current road system on the Galvin property are only approved for
Agricultural use. If the City would wish to build the roads across the wetlands, a need would have to be
present, meaning that the other lots must be sold prior to the DNR granting a crossing for additional
development. It was stated that only the parcels on the South side of the property could be serviced by
our existing sanitary sewer; the additional lots would require a lift station.
Under discuss/review appropriate action relating to Blume Property Planning, DPW Stuttgen stated he
met with Henry Blume and their understanding is the property has only storm water issues, no wetland
issues. It was stated that Kwik Trip has a proposed road penciled into the property layout on the Eastern
side of their property behind the City’s lift station. This road would provide access to the Blume
property. MSA suggested their recommendation would be for the City to get the wetlands delineated.
It was stated the delineation maps are good for 5 years. After the delineation is complete, the next step
would be to design the property layout with the DNR.
After reviewing the information the committee consensus was to continue exploration in the Blume
property and pass on the proposal from Pat Galvin. Discussion was held on what the procedure would
be to annex property from one school district to another district. It was felt that it would be
advantageous for the Blume property to be located within the Abbotsford School District if that would
be the next area of development. Further review will be done on the possibility of changing districts.
Trader suggested the City may want to consider the addition of two TIF districts as that would grant
more flexibility. It was stated that the provided proposal would be $1,000 higher to create two districts
versus one district.
Motion Welsh/Jakel to recommend hiring MSA to provide a wetland delineation of the Blume property
(approximately 78 acres). Motion carried without negative vote.
Under discuss/review Christensen property, there was no information available at this time to review.
Under discuss/review contract with MSA to create TID #6, motion Welsh/Jakel to recommend to the
City Council to create 2 TIF districts to be finalized on or before October 31, 2016. Motion carried
without negative vote.
Motion Medenwaldt/Welsh to adjourn at 10:00 a.m. Motion carried without negative vote.

Minutes from the License and Ordinance Committee held June 22, 2016 in the Abbotsford Council
Chambers
Chairman Voss called the meeting to order at 5:00 p.m.
Roll call: Chairman Voss, Kramer, Weideman, and Anders – via conference call
Others present: Clerk Lopez, David Rueden, and K. O’Brien – Tribune Phonograph
The Pledge of Allegiance was heard
Under comments by the public, Lopez informed the Committee that John Swejda came in prior to the
meeting and asked her to share the Junk Ordinance with the committee as he felt this ordinance was
not enforced uniformly throughout the City. He asked that the committee become familiar with the
ordinance and would like to see it uniformly enforced as he felt there were inoperable vehicles
throughout the City that were not being sited.
Under discuss/recommend Ordinance regarding Pit Bulls and Other Regulated Dogs and Animals the
committee felt the Ordinance from the City of Colby that prohibits Pit Bulls entirely would be a better fit
for the City of Abbotsford. It was suggested to allow a grandfather period of 30 days after the July 5,
2016 Council meeting to allow any dog currently in the City limits that falls within the Pit Bull definition
to obtain the proper insurance and become registered. Any dogs located in the City limits after that
time will be subject to the penalties as listed in the Ordinance. Motion Kramer/Anders to no longer
allow any regulated dogs in section 7-1-10 with in the City limits; people who currently have these types
of dogs have until August 1, 2016 to provide proof of insurance and rabies information and can then
obtain a “grandfathered” city license. Motion carried without negative vote. Fines will be enforced
after August 1, 2016.
Under discuss/recommend adding the language “no Kennels” to be listed in each residential zoning
district, Motion Anders/Kramer to add the language “no Kennels” to be listed in each residential zoning
district. It was stated that the existing kennel permit in the City is an annual application and would not
be renewed with the new ordinance in place. Motion carried 3:1 (Weideman).
Under discuss/recommend Ordinance regarding Farm Animals, motion Anders/Kramer to change the
regulation on Farm Animals to only allow Farm Animals as defined in the Ordinance if a property owner
has at least 250,000 square feet of contiguous property. Motion carried without negative vote.
Under discuss/recommend fee structure for building permits discussion was held regarding the
difficulties of calculating the total square footage and the cubic square footage of buildings from blue
prints. It was stated that the current fee structure has not received any complaints until the Abbyland
permit. Discussion was held on the TIF eligibility and it was explained that a table cannot be designed to
graph the funds available per project as the TIF applications are reviewed on a case by case situation and
a formula is applied based upon the estimated increase in tax value. It was suggested to table this issue
and present it again at the July Council meeting.
Motion Weideman/Anders to adjourn at 5:53 p.m. Motion carried without negative vote.

In America there is no Federal law that imposed a ban and restrictions on dangerous breeds of dogs across the
country. There is a law that prohibits the conduct of dog fighting, as well as training these dogs for fighting and their
movement within the country.
There is a prohibition on the housing of large dogs in the cantonments of the U.S.А. army like Pitbulls, Rottweilers
and hybrids of these species. Municipal authorities had taken several hundreds of laws banning the ownership of
such dogs as:

the amount of liability insurance must be $100 000, prohibition the sale of dangerous dogs, the
dog can be given only to relatives, at private homes be sure to hang warning signs.

rabies vaccination documents.
