The recent government meeting highlighted significant developments regarding infrastructure and community concerns in the village. The Wisconsin Historical Society has approved proposed brick repair work on a deteriorating facade, scheduled for September. This repair will address issues on the lower portion of the south-facing side of the building.

In a related discussion, officials expressed frustration over ongoing flooding issues at the cul de sac at the north end of 60th Street. The flooding is attributed to an overgrown drainageway leading to Scout Lake, which has hindered proper water flow. After 18 months of negotiations with the county, it was determined that the village would need to construct a new drainage pipe to redirect water flow, as the county will not undertake the necessary maintenance of the existing waterway. The village engineer is currently developing a concept plan for this new drainage solution, which will be presented at a future meeting.

Concerns were raised about the county's reluctance to assist with the flooding issue, with officials noting that similar situations in other municipalities have been handled without county support. Suggestions were made to potentially eliminate the cul de sac altogether to allow for natural drainage, but the feasibility of this option will be explored further.

Additionally, the meeting acknowledged the successful Village Days event and the ongoing popularity of the green market. A ribbon-cutting ceremony for a new bike lane on Grange was also celebrated, with community members expressing appreciation for the improvements made to local infrastructure.

The meeting concluded with a closed session to discuss the annual evaluation of the village manager, indicating ongoing administrative matters that will shape future governance.
