City Works to Pump Water at Tiedeman’s Pond
May Take a Month to Return to Normal Levels
By Katherine Perreth
Times-Tribune
MIDDLETON–In some
places, Middleton could still
be described with Samuel Tay-
lor Coleridge’s famous words,
“Water, water, everywhere.”
One such place is the Tie-
deman’s Pond overflow into
Woodside Heights Park and
Gammon Rd., still feet and
inches deep, respectively. Tie-
deman’s Pond has nowhere to
naturally drain and still threat-
ens homes on its shoreline.
To address the flooding, the
city of Middleton installed an
industrial-strength pump on
Aug. 28, adding to the smaller
pump which has been in place
for 15 years. After tweaking the
length and location of the hoses,
the pump has been churning out
2,500 gallons of contaminated
water every minute, adding
to the 475 gallons per minute
handled by the smaller pump.
Running both pumps 24/7, city
officials expect the level of Tie-
deman’s Pond and Stricker’s
Pond, which feeds into Tiede-
man’s, to take up to a month to
return to normal depths.
According to Mayor Gurdip
Brar, when industrial pumping
began Tiedeman’s Pond was
over 98 million gallons above

District Flood Damage
By Cameron Bren
Times-Tribune
MIDDLETON–The Middle-
ton-Cross Plains Area Board
of Education reviewed all
the damage to district prop-
erty following the storm that
flooded Dane County on Aug.
20-21. While many buildings
normal level.
Mayor Brar’s optimism
is being challenged by re-
cent weather forecasts, which
have thus far proven accurate,
dumping inches of rain on wa-
terlogged Middleton since late
August through Labor Day
weekend. The immediate future
forecasts more precipitation.
By Brar’s calculation, assum-
ing dry weather coupled with
continuous pumping, restoring
normal water levels would take
as few as 22 days.
The city sourced the indus-
trial pump from Dane County,
as well as some hoses, along
with hoses from the city of
Madison. In addition, the city
is renting some equipment.
The over 500-foot-length
cobbled together hose line runs
the length of Woodgate Rd. in
front of Elm Lawn Elemen-
tary School, complicating the
beginning of the schoolyear.
The city ran the hoses under the
entrance and exit to the school
parking lot, but much of the
line is exposed. Brar said the
police department has coordi-
nated with the school regarding
bus and other vehicle drop-off
areas, and the city is placing
“No Parking” signs along the
west side of Clovernook Road
experienced flooding no major
damage was sustained that will
significantly impact classes.
The board also discussed
the next steps following an
unexpected resignation from
board treasurer Linda Yu. Yu
announced at the start of the
meeting that she was resigning
for personal reasons effective
immediately.
Director of business services
Lori Ames and assistant super-
intendent Sherri Cyra went over
the damage caused by the storm
and the cleanup underway.
“We as a district need to feel
very grateful,” Ames said. “We
had damage and we are going
to need to some cleanup, but as
we look at all of our staff mem-
bers and families and the things
they are dealing with, we are in
a really good place.”
Ames said there was no sig-
nificant damage at Northside,
Elm Lawn, Sauk Trail. West
Middleton and Sunset Ridge
need some landscaping and
playground repair.
Park Elementary had some
water enter building which was
promptly removed. Kromrey
and Glacier Creek had some
leaks but nothing significant,
Ames said. Clark Street Com-
munity School was fine.
The high school and trans-
portation center were hit the
bordering Elm Lawn.
An email sent on Aug. 31,
from principal Robert Schell
to parents/guardians of Elm
Lawn students, outlines pro-
cedures for getting children
to and from school until both
flooding and Park Street con-
struction have been completely
alleviated. School buses will
drop children at Elm Lawn on
Clovernook Rd. in the morning;
families should use the drop-
off lane as usual in the school
parking lot on Woodgate Rd.
Afternoon transportation is as
usual. Children who normally
walk to school along Park St. or
Gammon Rd. have been asked
to avoid the area completely.
Parents are strongly urged to
find a different route for their
child(ren).
“We have serious concerns
about construction vehicles in
the area, sections of sidewalk
that are missing, and other haz-
ards in the roadway that just
aren’t safe for any child to be
around, especially elementa-
ry-age children,” Schell wrote.
Schell offered one bonus
for the schoolchildren in his
email: “We will not be issuing
any tardies for any/all students Katherine Perreth-Times Tribune

Gilda’s Club Sustains Extensive Flood Damage
By Michelle Phillips
Times-Tribune
MIDDLETON–Puzzle
pieces and globs of once wet
paper scatter the grounds at
Gilda’s Club in Middleton.
Dumpsters overflowing with
furniture, building materials
and toys line the parking lot,
and a battered Christmas tree
lays on its side in the muck
coated grass.
Inside the cleanup had
begun, starting with the pump-
ing, which amounted to nearly
300,000 gallons of floodwa-
ter, two days after it filled the
basement of the cancer respite
center.
“The basement used to be
furnished, now it is literally
gutted,” said Lannia Stenz, Gil-
da’s Club Executive Director.
“This is big,” said Jay
Cricks, who co-owns NorthStar
Restoration Services, a Wausau
based company. “We’ve done
some big projects–a fire, a two-
story flood, and this is one of
our biggest.”
The pumping took a few days
because the ground was satu-
rated. “We have to pump it out
slow or the ground water comes
back in,” explained Shawn Mil-
liken, Cricks partner.
Once the water was gone a
crew of 20 NorthStar employ-
ees and 30 volunteers worked

to remove all the debris and
building materials that had to
be ripped out. “We’ll be calling
in the hygienic lab to make sure
it is safe. Many of our patients
are immune-compromised,”
Stenz commented.
She said that finding North-
Star seemed serendipitous. She
had been at a conference in
Indiana when the flooding oc-
curred and met someone from
Gilda’s Club in Detroit, MI
who had flooding three years
prior. Eventually through a
phone call chain, she was con-
nected with NorthStar.
The company had just fin-
ished a flood restoration project
for one of Cricks and Millik-
en’s employees whose son had
leukemia. “I sat down to eat
dinner and got a phone call. It
was a guy I met in Ohio who
asked me if we wanted to go
to Madison. Then I learned the
project we would be working
on, and thought it was a very
unique coincidence,” Cricks
recalled.
“They were here the day
after the event (flood),” added
Stenz. “Jay said it felt like it
was right.”

tremely important for the pa-
tients who rely on it as a safe
and inviting place. Offering

“If patients can manage the

they have better treatment out-

ourselves on being a comfort-

Stenz added that the children

and was very upset because she
wanted to save the puppets.”

Strollin’ Middleton Offers Up Jazz, Art

MIDDLETON–The Greater
Madison Jazz Consortium’s
Strollin’ series is returning to
Downtown Middleton on Sept.
7. The jazz mini-fest will fea-
ture performances by 14 bands
presenting six hours of continu-
ous and stylistically diverse live
music at eight indoor and out-
door venues. The music spots
will be situated in Middleton’s
“walkable” downtown area east
and west of Parmenter St. and
south of University Ave. Now
in its fourth year, this popular
“jazz stroll” series features a
staggered performance sched-
ule that makes it easy for at-
tendees to stroll from venue to
venue. (See performance guide
at right.)
“The performers are chosen
by Jazz Consortium team mem-
ber Nick Moran, a jazz bassist
who has extensive connections
throughout our local jazz com-
munity. Nick always books
an array of bands who, collec-
tively, represent the stylistic di-
versity that we have in our local
jazz community,” said Howard
Landsman, Greater Madison
Jazz Consortium Board Mem-
ber.
In addition to music, this
year the Middleton Arts Com-
mittee is sponsoring a Pop-Up
Art Walk in collaboration
with the Strollin’ Middleton
Jazz Festival. The Art Walk
will highlight local artists dis-
playing and selling their work.
Locations will be indicated by
large red balloons outside of the
businesses hosting artists.
The 2018 edition of “Strollin’
Middleton” is the 13th “jazz
stroll” produced by the Consor-
tium in a series that began four
years ago at Schenk’s Corners
on Madison’s Near East Side.
The series has been warmly
embraced by each of its host
communities, and especially
in Middleton where over 1,000
happy music fans attended last
September’s Strollin’ event.
“In early 2014, Consortium
held a series of ‘town hall’
meetings with local jazz musi-
cians to get their ideas for ways
to create more fair-paying per-
formance opportunities, and a
“jazz stroll” was one of the top-
rated ideas that emerged from
this series of meetings. The
idea also aligned perfectly with
several of the Consortium’s
goals: expanding and diver-
sifying the audience for jazz,
creating a more supportive cli-
mate for local jazz musicians
and venues, and cultivating the
next generations of jazz fans
and musicians,” Landsman ex-
plained.
The Jazz Consortium is a
nonprofit coalition of local jazz
presenters, educational insti-
tutions, supportive media, and
individuals who work together
to create a more vibrant and
sustainable local jazz scene. For

of course. What prompted the
curiosity, you ask? Clashing
columns in the Des Moines
Register (supporting) and the
Washington Post (opposing)
the laws, which businesses
owners and corporations have
been trying to push through
since the Wagner Act was
passed in 1935.
Right away business, small
and large, were in objection to
providing more rights to Amer-
ican workers and their ability
to organize and lobby for better
working conditions.
One of the things that em-
ployers wanted to eliminate
bers if they were represented by
the union in bargaining, legal
matters, lobbies, etc. Right to
Work does just that, wipes out
Agency Shop rules.
Why does that matter? It di-
lutes the power of unions, and
in turn the power of the work-
ers. Before unions, people were
at the mercy of powerful and
greedy bosses, who reaped the
benefits of a worker’s labor,
while keeping the employee
in poverty. Unions lobbied
for better safety, higher wages
and scheduled time off, among
other things.
Let’s take a look at what
has happened in two industries
that have not traditionally been
union jobs, with a few excep-
tions, the food service and re-
tail business. In 2016, nearly 5
million people worked in retail
sales with an average wage of
just less than $22,000 per year,
and as of 2017, 3.65 million
people worked in food service,
their average wage coming in
at just over $20,000 per year.
Since there are very few unions
in these industries, wages and
benefits have remained low.
I know what you might
which was formed in 1891,
the union, for all its potential
members, failed to organize
the majority of workers, un-
like plumbers, electricians,
etc. It dissolved in 2004, and
was combined with the Union
of Needletrades, Industrial,
and Textile Employees. It now
represents only about 250,000
workers.
A similar fate has befallen the
retail industry. Formed later, in
1937, the Retail, Wholesale and
Department Store Union made
inroads from the beginning,
but Montgomery Ward resisted
and refused to acknowledge the
union. In spite of asset seizures,
Ward’s held strong in their op-
position and Pres. Harry S. Tru-
man ended the seizure in 1945.
Over the decades the union has
merged or been absorbed by a
variety of other unions but has
still failed to unite US workers
en masse.
Truman also passed the Taft–
Hartley Act in 1947, which, in
part repealed some of the Wag-
ner Act, including allowing
states to choose whether or not
they outlaw Agency Shop laws
and Union Shop laws, which

I never really understood the

much his representation and
willingness to fight for worker
rights had affected them. I had

against Right to Work until
someone told me the story of

Referendum Votes Needed
Dear Editor,
I am a retired Middleton voter. On Nov. 6, I will vote in sup-
port of the MCPASD building referendum–twice. Once for the
$140,000,000 much-needed addition to Middleton High School,
a new elementary school, a cafeteria at Park Elementary School
in Cross Plains (the only school in the district without one), and
updates to the Clark Street Community School building, so Early
Childhood programs can finally have a home base. And, of course,
I’ll vote yes again for the operational costs.
And, yes, my property taxes will go up.
Why would I do that when I’m on a fixed income?
I love kids. And what’s best for them. That’s the bottom line
for me.
Always has been.
As a former counselor in the district, I’ve seen firsthand how
crowded classrooms and hallways do not make the best learning
environment. Don’t get me wrong, the quality of our kids’ educa-
tion is outstanding.My two daughters who graduated from MHS in
2014 and 2016 can attest to that. But we’re bursting at the seams
here, folks.
As a community we are in the perfect place and time to take the
lead in innovative education and prepare our future citizens for the
next decade and beyond. But it’s imperative we pass this building
referendum to support our forward-thinking vision.
I feel so strongly about this issue that I am chairing the Yes
Committee 2018. Look for me and other members with our fluo-
rescent yellow “Yes” t-shirts at upcoming events. We’d love to talk
to you, answer your questions and help you spread the word about
this upcoming vote to your friends and neighbors.
Sincerely, Kathy Nieber-Lathrop, Middleton

after last month’s flood brought
sadness to the long-term

“We’re in the Conservancy

and we just know it would be
a long time to fix things,” said
Lloyd Eagan, president of the
PBC’s board of directors.
Although not as personally
tragic as flooded basements
and businesses interrupted by
the flood, the $2.5 million de-
struction to the 160-acre con-
servancy means a lot of hard
work was washed away and
more lies ahead, said Eagan.
Flood waters from the re-
cord-setting rainfall damaged
five pedestrian bridges, felled
trees and eroded trails, creek
banks and hillsides.
A fiber conduit that crosses
the Conservancy and is criti-

is being replaced. The current
conduit will be utilized until it
is replaced by Sept. 14.

City Explores Flood
Control at Pheasant Branch

MIDDLETON–While dealing with immediate problems at Pheas-

Middleton is also looking to lessen the blow from future flooding, said
Matt Amundson, Director of Public Lands, Recreation and Forestry.
Pheasant Branch Conservancy, which suffered an estimated $2.5
million in damage to bridges, trails and loss of tree cover, will get a
revised comprehensive plan.
Dane County’s portion of the Conservancy remains open. However,
the city’s portion, which lies to the south and between Century Ave.
and Pheasant Branch Rd., is currently closed while trails and stream
banks are being restored.
Pheasant Branch Creek is a major storm water conduit funneling
rainfall to Lake Mendota but doesn’t function as a wetland due to its
alignment and type of vegetation through which it flows.
Preliminary plans, subject to public input, call for more storm water
storage by altering the creek’s alignment and adding vegetation that
slows the rate of water runoff.
Amundson said the proposed changes will be substantial, the
amount of the Conservancy accessible to the public will remain un-
changed.
“Even though the plan is for more wetlands, the public access to
much of the Conservancy was just the 10-foot-wide trail. So, access
was limited but the trail will be maintained through those areas, al-
though the route may change,” he said.
With many trees removed during the Aug. 20-21 flood, and planned
changes to vegetation, the public should enjoy greater visibility and
access to the Conservancy, Amundson said.
The Friends of Pheasant Branch Conservancy haven’t weighed in
on the flood-damage mitigation ideas Amundson mentioned but they
are fundraising and ready to help with restoration efforts.
Donations to the FPBC made by Sept. 30 will be matched dol-
lar-for-dollar by a $10,000 pledge from an anonymous donor. The
FPBC Board will contribute $5,000 to the fund.
“I know that’s not much compared to the overall need, but it helps
with the restoration and educational programs we have,” said Lloyd
Eagan, president of FPBC board of directors.
FPBC has experienced increased increase in new memberships,
Eagan said. Annual individual memberships begin at $25. Member-

Scores of Volunteers Come to the Rescue in Cross Plains
By Michelle Phillips
Times-Tribune
CROSS PLAINS–After the
rain stopped and the water
began to recede, Cross Plains
experienced a second flood–a
flood of volunteers.
Cross Plains Village Board
Member Jeanne Statz was or-
ganizing the volunteer efforts
and said she was amazed at the
number of people that turned
out to help the village that has
a population of less than 5,000.
Much of the town was devas-
tated by the flood, and though
no official estimates are in,
Statz said as much as 50 per-
cent of the village could have
affected.
“People in town don’t real-
ize the magnitude of it,” she
said.
Volunteers begam gathering
at St. Francis Xavier Catholic
Church & School on the Friday
after the flood and continued to
show up for the next few days.
They went door to door to see
who needed help. “On Satur-
day morning people began to
show up at 9 a.m. and we sent
them out to those address,”
Stanz explained.
Next Stanz said the village
received a call from St. An-
drew’s Lutheran Church in
Middleton. They had 30 vol-
unteers that wanted to come
to Cross Plains to help with
cleanup. “They came out and
were a huge help,” said Statz.
“They got dirty and they were
in there. “
People also distributed food
to the volunteers. Sara Mohr-
bacher organized her neigh-
bors, who’s homes had also
been flooded, and enlisted the
help of her neighbors to pro-
vide meals. People brought
baked goods, drinks and other
food items to help with the ef-
fort. Mohrbacher also provided
meals for Team Rubicon along
with the Cross Plains Lion’s
Club and other residents.
Team Rubicon, a group of
former military members who
help in disasters, showed up
just in time. “The other vol-
unteers were spent, and these
guys came in like a breath of
fresh air,” Statz remembered.
“They came into the commu-
nity willing to help.”

The village is now looking
to create a disaster plan to mo-

clude organizations, churches
and individuals. Statz said the
hope is to bring the communi-
ties of Black Earth, Mazom-
anie and Cross Plains together
in the event of another disaster.
“The fire department had
to try to get to a fire in Berry
during all of this. Along with
everything else, a house burned
to the ground,” she stated.
Stanz said Melissa Murphy

She said there has been

“This was an emotional disas-
ter. People have to keep seeing
their life on the curb,” ex-
plained Statz, who said pickup
continues in the village.
Next the village will be
looking toward cleaning up
and repairing public spaces.

Young Rembrandts Offers After School Art Classes in MCPASD

By Michelle Phillips
Times-Tribune
MIDDLETON–Young art-
ists can express themselves in
an after-school program of-
fered at elementary schools in
Middleton, and around Dane
County, as part of Young
Rembrandts. The class teaches
drawing with colored pencil
and marker, crayons for the
younger kids, and meets once a
week, immediately after the end
of the regular school day. The
six-week class is available for
preschool (3 1/2 to five years)
and elementary (five to 12
years) students.
“It is purely focused on the
skill of drawing,” said Karen
Brown, owner of the Young
Rembrandts franchise in Mad-
ison. “There is just nothing else
like it. We really teach children
how to by break it down line
by line and object by object.
That’s how I taught Georgia
(her 11-year-old daughter), line
by line.”
Brown started the classes in
November 2017 after leaving a
job she had held for 15 years.
She has 12 teachers on staff
and works with art teachers in
the schools. Young Rembrandts
has been around since the
1980s and was started in Chi-
cago, IL, by Betty Fetter. Now
there are over 100 franchises
in North America and China.
Betty still owns the company
and her children work for her.
She has a staff that creates the
curriculum.
“I wasn’t sure if the art
teachers would be threatened,
but I actually have art teachers
that ask us to come in. They just
can’t spend the time on devel-
oping skills.,” said Brown, who
added that the classes also help
kids outside the Young Rem-
brandts environment through
changed perspective and be-
havior.
The students create the
drawings step by step and learn
coloring, color order and color
theory. Kids learn to do the
foreground first and then fill in
around it. In addition, the kids
learn art history and sometimes
a bit of general history.
“My favorite part is I love
seeing the kids at the beginning
of class, they are like, ‘No Way!
We can’t do that,’ when I show
them the pictures, and then
they complete it in one class,”
Brown shared, and added that
she always frames the artwork
for the students.
Brown said she also offered
summer workshops that were
five days long for three hours
every day. One of their projects
was a STEAM theme, which
encompassed a new drawing
representing each letter of the
acronym, S-Science, T-Tech-
nology, E-Engineering, A-Art
and M-Mathematics.
For those who question the
creativity of taking a step by
step approach to art, Brown
said, “If you sent your kid to
music class, you want your
kid to follow a curriculum.” A
book she created of the student
artwork at the end of last year
supports this idea with multiple
George Washington drawings,
all very different in accordance
to how the children viewed our
first president.
Young Rembrandts starts
on Sept. 17 and Brown said
the schools will distribute fli-
ers with information about the
classes. She said she can set
up a payment plan and offers
as many scholarships as possi-
ble. The classes average about
$13 each, and Brown and her
staff have classes in about 25
schools.

Edgewood at Maple Bluff on
Aug. 27.
The Cardinals then won
the Blackwolf Run Invite last
Thursday and cruised to a Big
Eight Conference win at the
Janesville Parker Triangular.
The ‘Crusade Fore A Cure’
raises money for the University
of Wisconsin Carbone Cancer
Center and awareness of breast
cancer and melanoma research.
This year, Middleton raised
more than $2,100 as a team.
“This is always such a great
event,” Cardinals coach Becky
Halverson said. “It’s about so
much more than the golf. I am
so proud of them for their efforts
with this.”
Halverson was also quite
proud of how her team played.
Middleton shot a 358 and
edged Waunakee by one shot
for the team title. Madison
Edgewood was third at 366 and
Milton was fourth at 368.

Boys spikers off to fast start

BY ROB REISCHEL
Times-Tribune
First impressions are often
the most telling.
If that’s the case with
Middleton’s boys’ volleyball
team, then 2018 promises to be
a banner year.
The Cardinals opened their
new season by going 3-0 in
their own quadrangular last
Wednesday.
Middleton defeated
Franklin, 25-20, 25-20, toppled
Sussex Hamilton, 25-17, 25-18
and downed Muskego, 25-21,
25-22.
“It’s always nice to start
the year 3-0,” Middleton
coach Ben White said. “The
goal right now is to improve
every day. State is never won
in September. As I always say,
‘Volleyball is fun in September,
it counts in November.’ Right
now we’ll have some time to
figure it out.”
Eagan Peters-Michaud led
the Cardinals with 20 kills,
seven aces and 12 digs, while
Parker Van Buren had 19 kills
and four blocks. Matt Ballweg
had 48 assists, Dylan Griffith
had 17 digs and Owen Engling
had five blocks.

Caleb Easton hasn’t missed
a beat.
Middleton’s standout cross
country runner — who fin-

WIAA Division 1 state meet
— won the season-opening
Verona Invite last Saturday.
Easton finished the 5,000-
meter course in 16 minutes,
35 seconds and bested Sun
Prairie’s Ash Francis (16:42)
for the individual title.
Middleton, the defending
state champs and one of the
top-ranked teams in the coun-
try, chose to rest many of its
other top runners and settled
for eighth place overall.

team title with 65 points, while

BOARD OF REVIEW NOTICE
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Board of Review for the
Village of Cross Plains of Dane County shall hold a meeting on
the 11th day of October, 2018 from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm at 2417
Brewery Rd., Cross Plains, WI.
Please be advised of the following requirements to appear
before the board of review and procedural requirements pur-
suant to Wis. Stats. 70.47(2) if appearing before the board:
1. No person will be allowed to appear before the board of
review, to testify to the board by telephone, or to contest the
amount of any assessment of real or personal property if the per-
son has refused a reasonable written request by certified mail of
the assessor to view the property.
2. After the first meeting of the board of review and before the
board’s final adjournment, no person who is scheduled to appear
before the board of review may contact or provide information to
a member of the board about the person’s objection, except at a
session of the board.
3. The board of review may not hear an objection to the
amount or valuation of property unless, at least 48 hours before
the board’s first scheduled meeting, the objector provides to the
board’s clerk written or oral notice of an intent to file an objection,
except that upon a showing of good cause and the submission of
a written objection, the board shall waive that requirement during
the first 2 hours of the board’s first scheduled meeting, and the
board may waive that requirement up to the end of the 5th day of
the session or up to the end of the final day of the session if the
session is less than 5 days with proof of extraordinary circum-
stances for failure to meet the 48-hour notice requirement and
failure to appear before the board of review during the first 2
hours of the first scheduled meeting.
4. Objections to the amount or valuation of property shall first
be made in writing and filed with the clerk of the board of review
within the first 2 hours of the board’s first scheduled meeting,
except that, upon evidence of extraordinary circumstances, the
board may waive that requirement up to the end of the 5th day of
the session or up to the end of the final day of the session if the
session is less than 5 days. The board may require objections to
the amount or valuation of property to be submitted on forms
approved by the Department of Revenue, and the board shall
require that any forms include stated valuations of the property in
question. Persons who own land and improvements to that land
may object to the aggregate valuation of that land and improve-
ments to that land, but no person who owns land and improve-
ments to that land may object only to the valuation of that land or
only to the valuation of improvements to that land. No person
may be allowed in any action or proceedings to question the
amount or valuation of property unless the written objection has
been filed and that person in good faith presented evidence to
the board in support of the objections and made full disclosure
before the board, under oath, of all of that person’s property
liable to assessment in the district and the value of that property.
The requirement that objections be in writing may be waived by
express action of the board.
5. When appearing before the board of review, the objecting
person shall specify in writing the person’s estimate of the value
of the land and of the improvements that are the subject of the
person’s objection and specify the information that the person
used to arrive at that estimate.
6. No person may appear before the board of review, testify to
the board by telephone, or object to a valuation if that valuation
was made by the assessor or the objector using the income
method of valuation, unless no later than 7 days before the first
meeting of the board of review the person supplies the assessor
with all the information about income and expenses, as specified
in the assessor’s manual under s. 73.03 (2a), Wis. stats., that the
assessor requests. The Village of Cross Plains has an ordinance
for the confidentiality of information about income and expenses
that is provided to the assessor under this paragraph that pro-
vides exceptions for persons using information in the discharge
of duties imposed by law or the duties of their officer or by order
of a court. The information that is provided under this paragraph,
unless a court determines before the first meeting of the board of
review that it is inaccurate, is not subject to the right of inspection
and copying under s. 19.35 (1), Wis. Stats.
7. No person may appear before the board of review, testify to
the board by telephone, or contest the amount of any assess-
ment unless, at least 48 hours before the first meeting of the
board, or at least 48 hours before the objection is heard if the
objection is allowed under s.70.47 (3) (a), Wis. stats., that person
provides to the clerk of the board of review notice as to whether
the person will ask for the removal of a member of the board of
review and, if so, which member, and provides a reasonable esti-
mate of the length of time the hearing will take.
8. The Board shall hear upon oath, by telephone, all ill or dis-
abled persons who present to the Board a letter from a physician,
surgeon or osteopath that confirms their illness or disability. No
other persons may testify by telephone.
Notice is hereby given this 6th day of September, 2018.
