The Village Board of Shorewood convened on May 19, 2025, to discuss several key agenda items, primarily focusing on intergovernmental cooperation and infrastructure improvements.

The meeting began with a review of an intergovernmental cooperation agreement with the Village of Whitefish Bay concerning water infrastructure improvements on Oakland Avenue. Trustee Warren raised a question regarding the division of responsibilities for seven properties involved in the project, noting that four would be managed by Whitefish Bay and three by Shorewood. Director Butchlick clarified that the distinction arises from the configuration of the water main, which necessitates separating the two systems at the intersection of Lehi Nill. Following this discussion, the board unanimously approved the agreement to facilitate the necessary improvements.

Next on the agenda was the extension of the transfer station agreement with Whitefish Bay. Trustee McGovern indicated that the details were adequately covered in the memo provided to the board. A motion was made by Trustee Stokbren to approve the extension, which was seconded by Trustee McGovern. The board acknowledged that Whitefish Bay had communicated their ability to utilize the current transfer station or the Germantown Landfill for refuse disposal. The motion passed without opposition.

The meeting concluded with a report from the village president, who mentioned a proclamation but did not elaborate further. Overall, the board's discussions reflected a commitment to enhancing local infrastructure through collaborative efforts with neighboring municipalities.
