CITY CAPACITY ChALLENGED
In 2015, the City of Oak Creek issued
$230 million in building permits and 2016
looks to be on pace or ahead of last year’s
activity. As a result of the State Legislature’s permanent freeze on property taxes,
the City can only expect to generate additional property tax revenues (our primary
source of revenues used to pay for services provided to you) to fund operations from new construction activity. In the City of Oak Creek, much of our new
construction activity is and has occurred within Tax Increment
Districts (TIDs). Generally, the new tax revenue generated
within these TID districts is pledged to paying for the public
infrastructure needed to serve the property within the District.
These tax revenues are usually pledged for the duration of
the District, which is routinely 20 years.

The result of little new revenues over the last five years to
fund activities outside of TIDs has been to place additional
workloads on City staff throughout the organization without
the ability to increase staffing including: police and fire services, street and park construction and maintenance, water
and sewer operations, library services, and building inspection, engineering, finance, and administrative operations.
I am proud of our positive and “can do” staff response over
the last five years to these added workloads. However, the
challenges impacting our capacity to provide excellent public
services to residents and businesses throughout the community remain. The Common Council is aware of these challenges and they have been supportive within the resources
the community has provided. Our capacity to continue to absorb added workloads without service or work quality reductions into the future without additional staffing has been
reached at various operational levels, and in my judgement,
surpasses staffing capability currently in some of our operational areas.
In order to solicit community input on City services and taxes,
the Oak Creek Common Council approved a community survey to be prepared and mailed to 1500 residents to gather
your feedback. Residents who did not receive the survey directly were able to complete it on the City’s website
(www.oakcreekwi.org). A presentation of this community survey input is scheduled in front of the Common Council for its
June 21st meeting. The survey results will also be available
on the City’s website following this presentation.

To follow up resident feedback from the community survey,
the Common Council has also provided for: a Strategic Planning Process to be undertaken using the input gained from
the survey and further asking residents to participate in a
process of planning for the future to identify community priorities. Strategies will need to be developed to implement
your vision of the community. You will be able to follow this
discussion by attending meetings, reading the Acorn, reading
may - August 2016
our new Community Lifestyle Magazine, following us on Facebook, Twitter,
or by accessing information from our
website. Democracy is a participatory
endeavor.
The Oak Creek Common Council truly
values community input and has a history of acting on your collective input regarding the vision, ideas, and priorities
for the City. Let your Alderman and the
Mayor know what you value, what
should stay, what should go, what the
future looks like, and what you are willing to support in services in the form of
taxes from your hard earned resources.

What’s New in the Parks?
COUNTY-OWNED PARCELS REzONED TO
PARKLAND
Earlier this year, Milwaukee County
made a request to rezone 55 Countyowned parcels to P-1, Parkland District.
The City is in the process of approving
this request. Rezoning properties as
parkland will make these County-owned
parcels less susceptible to sale and development. Falk Park and the Runway
Dog Park are two areas within Oak
Creek that were included in the rezoning request. The request was made to
address an amendment that was
passed in the last State Budget giving
the County Executive authority to lease
or sell non-parkland property without
County Board approval. As a result of
this amendment, the County Board
passed a resolution to protect parks
and parkland, and directed the County
Executive to request that 55 Countyowned parcels in the City be rezoned to
P-1, Parkland. A list of parcels can be
found on Plan Commission agendas
located on our website at-www.oakcreekwi.org
AbENDSChEIN PARK PhASE 3
DEvELOPmENT
Over the past 10 years, the City has
made strides in implementing the
Abendschein Park Master Plan. During
that time, the City has installed a
skatepark, a playground, an open air
shelter, a cricket pitch, a restroom/concession building, a retention pond, and
has expanded parking.
The next development phase for the
park is to be completed this fall. This
phase includes adding approximately
4,430 linear feet (0.8 mile) of 8-footwide asphalt recreational trails through
the southern and eastern portions of the
park. In addition, approximately 1,700
linear feet of mulch pathways will be
constructed through the wooded area of
the park. To connect the southern and
eastern portions of the park, there will
be a bridge spanning the Oak Creek.
Overall, the park will have approximately 12,000 linear feet or about 2.3
miles of recreational trails throughout
the park.
After the trail and bridge project is complete, about 3.5 acres located in the
southwest corner of the park will be
converted to prairie. Partially funded
from a grant received from MMSD (Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewer District),
the City will be starting the process of
establishing a flower laden prairie. The
first phase will include the killing of the
existing vegetation and seeding of the
area next spring. This process will take
approximately three years to complete,
as prairie plants take a longer time to
establish and grow. There are many
websites explaining how to successfully
establish a prairie. If you want to learn
more about what it takes to establish a
prairie, go to-www.prairienursery.com
Once complete, the area should be a
beautiful wildlife habitat with numerous
wildflowers that can be observed from
the recreational trails.

GRILLING
SAFETY
There is nothing
better than a
barbeque on a
warm summer night. The Oak Creek
Fire Department would like to make
sure that residents keep safety in mind
when they fire up their grills.
GAS GRILL SAFETY TIPS
1. Check grill hoses for cracking, brittleness, holes, and leaks. Make sure
there are no sharp bends in the hose
or tubing.
2. Move gas hoses as far away as
possible from hot surfaces and dripping hot grease.
3. Always keep propane gas containers upright.
4. Never store a spare gas container
under or near the grill or indoors.
5. Never store or use flammable liquids, like gasoline, near the grill.
6. Never keep a filled container in a
hot car or car trunk. Heat will cause
the gas pressure to increase, which
may open the relief valve and allow
gas to escape.
ChARCOAL GRILL SAFETY TIPS
1. Never burn charcoal inside of
homes, vehicles, tents, or campers.
2. Charcoal should never be used indoors, even if ventilation is provided.
3. Since charcoal produces CO fumes
until the charcoal is completely extinguished, do not store the grill indoors
with freshly used coals.
4. Allow charcoal and ashes to completely cool prior to disposal.
Warmer weather means children
spend much of their summer vacations
in the water. Whether it’s a backyard
pool or open water such as a river or
lake, parents can take several steps to
keep their children safe this summer.
• Actively supervise children whenever
they are near water.
• Enroll children in swimming lessons
as soon as possible to get them comfortable with the water.
• Small children should always swim
with an adult, and older children who
are more experienced swimmers
should swim with a buddy.
• Make sure that children only swim in
designated swimming areas.
• Teach children that open water swimming is much different that swimming
in a pool. Current/undertow, uneven
bottom surfaces and weather conditions can have an effect on their experience in the water.
• Consider building a fence with a gate
around your pool.
• Install an alarm on the gate to alert
you if a child enters the swimming pool
area without your knowledge.
DIAL 911
It may seem like a simple task, but in
the event of an emergency, dial 911 to
reach fire, rescue and emergency
medical services. Time is of the utmost importance in the event of an
emergency and every second counts.
For example, fires double in size every
minute. Fires that start out small can
easily grow to engulf entire buildings.
Serious medical conditions like a heart
attack, stroke, or traumatic injury require immediate attention by medical
personnel. The Oak Creek Fire Department provides not only fire suppression, but also Paramedic level
emergency medical care. With three
stations strategically located throughout the city, the Fire Department is
only minutes away.
hANDS-ONLY CPR
As a part of an initiative in Milwaukee
County, the Oak Creek Fire Department has Hands-Only CPR training
materials at each station.
These materials can be
signed out so that citizens
can facilitate in-home training. Each training kit contains a CPR
manikin, training materials, and an instructional DVD.

TREES AND PROPERTY LINES how to Reduce Conflicts between
Trees & Neighbors
A well designed landscape, beginning
with the careful placement of trees,
can have quite a positive impact on
your property. Conversely, there are
times when unforeseen circumstances
or poorly placed plants can create difficult situations between neighbors. Respecting the property line, and your
neighbors, is the best way to ensure
that our neighborhoods look great and
our residents stay on good terms.
The City is not a source of legal advice
regarding boundary issues. In fact,
the City cannot become entangled in a
boundary conflict between private
properties. We can provide assistance in finding a qualified arborist and
potentially advise you on the technical
issues of a tree. For instance, we
could confirm that a tree is a dead
American elm or that your ash is infested with emerald ash borer.
Here are some possible measures for
maintaining healthy trees as well as
good relationships with neighbors.
Landscape Planning and
maintenance
Check out the plat map that often
comes with a home purchase. Milwaukee County provides an internet
accessible interactive map with aerial
views and an overlay of property lines
and other useful tools. It helps to have
an accurate knowledge of your property boundaries.
• One of the most common mistakes
made during landscaping is to plant a
large growing tree in a small space.
We’ve all seen that blue spruce overflowing a ten-foot space in a tiny front
yard. Know the potential size, shape
and particular habits of your tree selections. A large tree canopy could be
over 60 feet wide at maturity. Some
trees will be less than two inches wide
when planted but have stem growth of
5 feet wide in 30 years.
• Trees are often used to define some
portion of a lot. It may be wise to consciously avoid planting on property
lines. Offset vegetation to consider
JEFF WENDT, PARKS SUPERvISOR
the width as plants grow taller and
wider.
• Keep trees pruned to avoid directing
low branching or deadwood into your
neighbor’s yard.
• If you want to develop a tall
canopied, spreading tree, hike it up
while it is young and adaptable.
• Avoid planting tall-growing trees
under overhead powerlines.
Take responsibility when your trees
cause serious issues for your neighbors.
Wood Lots
Perhaps you are considering the purchase of a wooded lot. You can save
money, headache and heartache if
you consult with a qualified, certified
arborist for an evaluation and protection plan for the trees you select to
save. A good arborist can help you
select the best trees and provide
species-specific information that may
protect you from difficulties in the future. A good look around the perimeter
of the property will also help to safeguard against potential future conflicts
with neighbors due to problem trees.
Problem boundary Trees
Perhaps you or your neighbors have
inherited some declining boundary
trees or find yourselves in a difficult
situation due to a serious tree disease
or insect.
It is best to accept the fact that the
problem isn’t going to go away on its
own and that it will likely cost you
something in the future to resolve.
Acknowledge when a removal exceeds your skill level. Hazard tree or
branch care is best handled by a professional.
A proactive approach to boundary vegetation can help everyone enjoy the
benefits of healthy trees and landscapes.
Fast Tree Fact: Oak trees, although
reputed to be slow growing, can grow
very quickly for the first 30 years or so.

STEvE ANDERSON, CAPTAIN
“vacation” time of year:
• Residents can request a “vacation
watch” of their home by the Oak Creek
Police Department. Prior to leaving for
vacation, contact the Department at
762-8200 (press “0” for Dispatch) and
provide the dispatcher with information
(i.e., your departure/return date,
whether lights will be left on and when,
if vehicles will be left in the driveway,
any designated key holders, etc.). Our
Police Aides will conduct periodic
checks of your home while you are
gone.
• Do not allow daily deliveries of mail,
newspapers, or flyers to build up while
you are away. Arrange for a friend or
neighbor to pick up these items or stop
your mail at the post office.
• Give your house a lived-in appearance. Put automatic timers on several
lights, a radio, and a television. Set the
timers so that the lights and appliances will turn on and off at random
times. Leave shades and blinds in a
position that you would normally leave
them. Ask your neighbor to use your
driveway and garbage cans.
• Arrange for your lawn to be mowed if
you are going away for an extended
period of time.
• Make sure all locks on the doors and
windows function properly, and use
them. Don’t leave keys under doormats, flowerpots, mailboxes or other
“secret” hiding places. Burglars know
where to look for hidden keys.
• Make sure smoke and burglar alarms
function properly and are armed.
• Turn the ringer on your telephone
down low or off and leave a normal
message on your answering machine.
• Keep a detailed inventory of your
valuables, including a description of
the items, date of purchase, original
value, and serial numbers, and keep a
copy in a safe place away from home.
Etch personal identification codes on
your valuables with an engraving tool.
You can also make a photographic or
video record of items in your home.
• Be a good neighbor. Get to know
your neighbors and watch out for each
other. If you notice anything suspicious, call 9-l-l immediately and report
it to the police.

bURNING LEAvES- IS IT
SAFE?
Many people love the
smell of burning leaves
and enjoy burning
them. Did you know
that leaf burning can hurt people’s
health? The smoke can hurt the eyes,
nose and throat of healthy adults, but
it can hurt small children, the elderly,
and people with asthma or other lung
or heart diseases much worse. For
some people, leaf burning makes it so
they cannot enjoy going outside. The
smoke from leaf fires is made up almost entirely of tiny particles that can
reach deep into lungs and cause
coughing, wheezing, chest pain and
trouble breathing. For some people
symptoms happen right away but for
others symptoms might not happen
until days after leaf burning.
Instead of burning your leaves, you
can compost leaves and plant clippings, chip brush and clean wood to
make mulch or decorative chips. If you
really want to get those leaves out of
your yard, Oak Creek residents can
dispose of their leaves at the Municipal Service Recycling yard during normal recycling yard hours.
hOW YOU CAN STOP
mOSQUITOS IN ThEIR
TRACKS
Almost everyone
has had the unpleasant experience of
being bitten by a mosquito. One way
you can help control the mosquito
population is by making sure that mosquitoes don't have a place to lay their
eggs around your home. Because
mosquitoes need water it's important
to monitor standing water sources.
These are a few ways to prevent mosquitoes:
• Get rid of standing water in rain
gutters, old tires, buckets, plastic
covers, toys or any other container
where mosquitoes can breed.
• Empty and change the water in bird
baths, fountains, wading pools, rain
barrels and potted plant trays at
least once a week to eliminate
potential mosquito habitats.
• Drain temporary pools of water or
fill with dirt.
766-7950
• Keep swimming pool water treated
and circulating.
STEPPING ON - STAYING STEADY ON YOUR
PREPARING FOR YOUR bARbECUE OR
PICNIC
• Keep cold food cold.
Place cold food in a
cooler with ice or frozen gel packs.
Meat, poultry, and seafood may be
packed while still frozen so that they
stay colder longer.
• Organize cooler contents. Consider
packing beverages in one cooler and
perishable foods in another.
• Keep coolers closed. Once at the
picnic site, limit the number of times
the cooler is opened as much as you
can. This helps to keep the contents
cold longer.
• Don’t cross-contaminate. Be sure to
keep raw meat, poultry, and seafood
securely wrapped and kept separate
from cooked food and produce.
• Clean your produce. Rinse fresh
fruits & vegetables under running tap
water before packing them in the
cooler.
What is zika virus?
Do you hear about diseases on the
news and want to know more? The
Center for Disease Control and Prevention, also known as the CDC, is a
great resource for accurate information. You can visit their website at
www.cdc.gov. If you have a specific
question you can also call the health
department to speak with a nurse.
The Oak Creek Health Department
also helps with limiting the mosquito
population. Every season we treat
known water basins that consistently
hold standing water in Oak Creek to
prevent mosquito larvae from growing
into adult mosquitos. With our work
and your help eliminating standing
water sources, let’s stop those mosquitos in their tracks!
IS mY CAR SEAT SAFE?
Did you know that 3 out of every 4 car
seats is installed incorrectly? If your
car seat is not installed correctly, it can
affect how it protects your child in a
crash. It is recommended that you
have your car seat installed with a
Child Passenger Safety Technician.
The Oak Creek Health Department
has someone on staff to help. Call to
schedule an appointment.
If you are in need of a car seat and
cannot afford one we may be able to
help! Call to see if you are eligible.
16
FEET AS YOU AGE
Do you have a friend or relative who has fallen? Have
you fallen yourself? If so,
you’re not alone. Don’t let the fear of
falling rule your life. There are many
things that can help reduce the risk of
falling. The Oak Creek Health Department will be offering a fall prevention
class in September 2016, date to be
determined. Please call if you are interested.
SWIm INTO SAFETY
When the warm weather hits, many of
us want to be in the pool or at the
beach, but before you jump in, read
these safety tips!
• Protect your skin by wearing sunscreen with a protection factor of at
least 15.
• Drink plenty of water regularly, even
if you’re not thirsty.
• Never leave a young child unattended near water and teach children to
always ask permission to go near
water.
• Have young children or inexperienced swimmers wear life jackets
around water.
• If you have a pool, secure it with
appropriate barriers.
• If someone is missing, check the
water first. Seconds count in preventing death or disability.
• Know how and when to call 9-1-1
or the local emergency number.

Assessor’s Office
The Assessor’s Office is conducting a
revaluation for 2016. Revaluations
were also performed in 2014 and
2015. As opposed to performing
revaluations once every three to four
years, these annual revaluations ensure assessed values are based on
current market conditions which lead
to more equitable assessments for
property owners.
As in previous years, property owners
that were approved for a building permit for remodeling, new construction,
additions, wood decks, detached
buildings and other similar type permits were visited by a member of the
assessment staff to update assessment records. For permits relating to
interior remodeling, basement finish,
additions and new construction, an interior inspection was attempted. Properties that sold during 2014 and 2015
may have also received a request for
an interior inspection. These properties are referred to as comparable
sales and are used to establish the assessed value of other properties that
have not sold. Verifying sales information with property owners is an important part of the assessment process.
In addition to the fieldwork and sales
verification of certain properties mentioned above, owners of commercial
real estate were mailed and asked to
complete an Income and Expense
Form. This information is for confidential use by the Assessor’s Office by
State Statute and City Ordinance. The
information gathered on these forms is
used to help establish equitable assessments for commercial properties
based on the current market conditions relating to commercial leases.
The form does not request personal or
business income, only the income information relating to the lease or potential lease of the property.
Business owners that may or may not
own the real estate where they conduct business were also mailed and
asked to complete a Statement of Personal Property. Per State Statute,
business owners are required to complete this form and return it to the Assessor’s Office annually. These forms
were mailed in January 2016 with a
due date of March 1.
OPEN bOOK
Property owners will be mailed a 2016
Notice of Assessment between midMay and June of 2016. That Notice of
Assessment will include the 2016 assessed value and will include instructions on how to contact the Assessor’s
Office during the Open Book period in
order to schedule a meeting if they are
in disagreement with the value.
If you have questions concerning
the assessment process, please
contact:

This workshop will provide children with the opportunity
to design the Oak Creek Olympic Lego Village. Lego
blocks provided, children bring your imagination!
Buggy Olympics is a unique program that combines
three things that are irresistible to kids: putting on a
show, competition, and bugs! Participants will explore
the theater process as they perform a puppet show
based on the book “The Bugliest Bug” by Carol Diggory
Shields. Children will discover lessons about insects
and their creepy crawly relatives and will try to “out compete” some of their favorite insects in the Buggy
Olympics while getting up-close and personal with some
live insects.
