Vol. 21, Issue 2 Summer 2018
The Town of Neenah Annual Town Meeting was held on Tuesday April 17, 2018 with 37 people in attend-ance. During this meeting, Glenn Armstrong and Jim Weiss were sworn in as Town of Neenah Supervisors and there were several items brought up for discussion by Town Electors including how to fund the shortfalls for Town expenses. One suggestion was to consider a referendum to fund road projects, another was to sell the Town owned property to replenish the reserve fund account. The Town Board discussed the possibility of a referendum at a Town Board meeting in May and the general consensus was that there are other alternatives to consider prior to considering a refer-endum. At this same Town Board Meeting, the Town Board members discussed selling the Town owned property. Town Owned Property Currently the Town owns a total of 78 acres of land near Oakridge Road and Tullar Road. In 1999 and 2008, the Town purchased 112 acres as a tool to preserve town lands from being an-nexed to the City of Neenah. In 2014, the Wisconsin Department of Trans-portation purchased 35 acres from the Town of Neenah for a wetland mitiga-tion site paying $535,000 to the Town. There are 8 acres the Town of Neenah has designated for a future storm wa-ter pond and have approximately 70 acres remaining. At this time, the land is rented for agriculture purposes generating $3,300 income annually.
Dog Park In recent months, Winnebago County Parks and Recreation Department approached the Town with a proposal to lease a portion of this property at a rate of $10,000 annually for a County Dog Park. The dog park would be managed and maintained by Winne-bago County at no added expense to the Town of Neenah. $10,000 annu-ally in revenues is equal to approxi-mately $8.7 million in assessed value of taxable land and improvements. Upon review, the Town Board voted to reject the lease presented by the County stating that some of the claus-es in the lease were not favorable to the Town of Neenah, including a clause that gave the County the ability to terminate the lease but the Town would not have those same termina-tion rights. In May 2018, an ad hoc committee was formed and is doing further re-search on the options for marketing this Town owned property to generate interest from potential developers. Any sale of Town owned property requires approval from the Town of Neenah Electors. If the Town Board receives an offer on this land that they believe is favorable to the Town, a Special Meeting of the Town Electors will be scheduled giving the Town Electors the opportunity to vote on the sale of the property. Additional topics discussed included the Boundary Agreement with the (Continued on page 7)

CHAIRMAN’S CHATTER
Welcome to the 2018 spring/
summer addition of Chairman’s
Chatter. As per usual, I am drafting
this just prior to Memorial Day
weekend so at this reading, I hope
one and all had a wonderful time
with friends and family. I will talk
more about this national holiday
later in my “Fun Facts”.
Once again at our annual town
meeting road maintenance was a subject of discussion.
The 2017 highway budget was $134,000. The 2017 actual
was $91,378. The 2018 budget is $251,639. That works out
to a 175.4% change in budget from 2017 to 2018.These
numbers are for road maintenance alone and not the road
reconstruction numbers for Sunrise Bay Road and Hunters
Point Road. According to the Wisconsin Town’s Associa-
tion’s transportation report; “The average town is crack
filling a paved road every 16.1 years when it should be
more like every 3 years. The average town process of seal
coating, every 31.4 years per road when 5-7 is the norm.
And, the average town road, in the state, is being recon-
structed every 370.8 years! Roads just do not last that
long.” (This is data from the Wisconsin Towns Associa-
tion). The State finally heard our town’s pleas for more
state aid and the Joint Committee on Finance came
through with approximately $23.5M. Our 2018 Transpor-
tation State Aid is $71,431. We say “Thank You.” Howev-
er as you can see there still will be a short fall in highway
maintenance monies. Our roads are a tad better than the
average town roads. That is due to the work of our town
road supervisor Ed DeKeyser working with the Winneba-
go County Highway Department. Together they have per-
formed the best they can with the monies we do have. The
overall 2017 town Public Works budget was $870,091. The
2018 budget is $900,221. That’s a 35.1% increase. I, and
the Town Board of Supervisors have been looking at ways
to gain revenue. For some time now I have advocated that
perhaps we should look at the sale of some of our town
owned properties while still keeping adequate “Green
Space”. Now, the town board as a whole and members of
the Planning Commission, are investigating that scenario.
Because it is public owned land we will continue to update
all of you on any potential town land sales.
Let’s talk recycling. Our population is presently 3,537. The
Winnebago County Solid Waste Management Board
(WCSWMB) 2018 Recycling Tonnage Report shows that
per year, we average 66.29 lbs. of recycled materials per
person. Our two neighboring towns of Clayton and Vin-
land average 74.84 lbs./person and 76.81 lbs./person re-
spectively. The WCSWMB and the Signing Municipalities
that participate in recycling earned surplus revenues in
2017. The 2017 Signing Municipalities portion of the sur-
plus revenue is $263,793 of which our share is $7,971.
These revenue monies are not shown in the budget. How-
ever revenue in any form is much appreciated. Soooo…
Let’s not let other towns show us up Right ! I know we can
do better than what we are recycling now. Every little bit
counts!
On a positive note, the annual Town Of Neenah’s Fire-
man’s picnic is the 19th of August. This is a great time for
the whole family to come out and see department equip-
ment, live demonstrations, and of course food and beverag-
es. Please come out and show them your appreciation for
their dedication of service.
And for my Fun Fact: As I stated earlier, by the time you
are reading this, Memorial Day has come and gone. And
so too has Armed Forces Day. Do you know the difference
between these two important days in US history? Most do
know that Memorial Day is in recognition for the many
brave men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice for
Freedom.
Armed Forces Day is specifically for members of the
military that are currently serving their country by recog-
nizing brave men and women in our armed services.
America has been honoring members of the military cur-
rently serving by celebrating this holiday on the third Sat-
urday in May since 1950. The tradition began when Pres-
ident Harry S. Truman sought a specific day to honor all
of our armed forces rather than have separate days for
each individual branch. In August 1949, Defense Secre-
tary Louis Jonson announced that Armed Forces Day
would be created and celebrated the following May. On
the first Armed Forces Day on Saturday May 20, 1950,
President Truman declared: "Armed Forces Day, Satur-
day, May 20, 1950, marks the first combined demonstra-
tion by America's defense team of its progress, under the

Fire Department
Town Board Supervisor Glenn Armstrong Retires from the Town of
Neenah Fire Department after 40 years of service
On March 7th, 2018, Town of Neenah Firefighter Glenn Armstrong retired after serving the community for 40
years…..exactly 40 years. Glenn retired on the same calendar date that he joined the department back in 1978. Over
the years, Glenn served the department in virtually every role and was involved in virtually every major change that
occurred on the department over those years. Glenn prides himself as the “town’s unofficial historian” and always
could pinpoint the year of a significant incident and who was there and what efforts were used to control the situa-
tion. He highlighted some of those incidents at the Annual Town Meeting in April when he was presented a plaque
honoring his service.
Glenn also participated on many committees and projects ranging from the construction of the Fire Station/Town
Hall on Breezewood Lane to being part of several committees involved with the specification and purchase of the
fire department’s apparatus. Glenn also held the position of Fire Chief from 1985-1990.
Glenn’s involvement in the fire department will be missed as he was usually available to respond during the daytime
hours due to being self-employed in farming.
Glenn’s experience and leadership will truly be missed around the fire sta-
tion but, we wish him the best in retirement and we thank him for his 40
years of service to the Town of Neenah.
Firefighter Glenn Armstrong studies the pump controls on the department’s 3,000
gallon water tender, known as Tender 39. Glenn often drove this unit as he under-
stood the importance of getting water to a fire scene as quickly as possible.

Many of us have been involved in business organiza-
tions that are constantly working to gain a competitive
advantage using tools found in Continuous Improve-
ment programs. Fire Departments across the country
are no different use the same tools and stress the im-
portance training to maintain a “competitive ad-
vantage” when dealing with fire and medical emergen-
cies. These continuing education efforts amounted to
over 1,800 hours for 22 Town of Neenah firefighters as
they work diligently to enhance their practical skills and
knowledge. These 1,800 hours are in addition to the 36
hours of mandatory training each firefighter is required
to complete each year.
When we start to talk about over 2,500 hours of training
in 2017 by 22 individuals it’s easy to see the level of
dedication these men and women have for the role
they play in assisting the citizens of the community. And
let us not forget all of these folks perform these tasks as
in a part time role with the fire department. All of these
firefighters have full time jobs that they get up and go to
even after being out half the night at an emergency
call. Dedication….I think you’ll agree that it is at levels
that are “off the charts”.
The following is a quick listing of the course work com-
pleted in 2017 and some of the hours involved:
· State Certified Firefighter 1, 120 hours
· State Certified Firefighter 2, 42 hours
· Driver/Operator Pumper, 66 hours
· Emergency Services Instructor, 40 hours of classwork
and then 30 hours of teaching supervised by a
senior instructor
· Fire Officer 1 and Fire Inspector, 40 hours each
· Emergency Medical Responder (First Responder), 80
hours plus another 24 hours of refresher training eve-
ry 2 years.
· Emergency Medical Technician (EMT), 180 hours
· Hazardous Materials Operations, 24 hours
Another quick note, most of this training is done outside
a nice comfortable air conditioned classroom in real life
conditions of summer heat, winter cold, as well as rain
and snow.
Please join me in thanking our Firefighters and First Re-
sponders as they respond daily to the emergency
needs of the citizens of the Town of Neenah and know
that they have the best training available to perform
their roles.
Thank you,
Fire Chief Ed King

Village of Fox Crossing. The Town of Neenah does not currently have a Boundary Agreement with the Village, rather we have a Memorandum of Under-standing which states that the current boundary lines between the Town and the Village remain intact until November 2018 and that the two municipalities will make an attempt to negotiate terms for a long-term boundary agreement.
Boundary Agreement/Annexation Another topic of discussion was related to the existing Boundary Agreement between the City of Neenah and the Town of Neenah. At the time of the Annual Meeting, the City of Neenah expressed interest in fil-ing a petition to annex a one piece of property in the Armstrong Plat and a portion of Armstrong Street into the City of Neenah so they could extend Shoot-ing Star Drive. The Boundary Agreement with the City of Neenah designates certain areas in the Town as ‘City Growth’ meaning the Town of Neenah will not contest the City’s request for annexation, and oth-er areas in the Town as ‘Town Growth’ meaning the City will not request annexation of these properties.
The Armstrong Street Area does not fall into either of these two areas and for this reason, the Town Board notified the City of Neenah that the Town will oppose any attempt by the City to perform the proposed an-nexation. The City of Neenah has not responded to this notice.

Little Brown
Address Signs Those little brown address signs at
your property are a valuable resource
to our Firefighters, First Responders,
Law Enforcement and other emergen-
cy personnel when responding to call
at your property. Hopefully, you nev-
er need to call 911, but in the event of
an emergency, you want to make sure
the responders can quickly locate
your home. Please take a few
minutes to clear the area around your
address sign of brush, over grown
grass, and other vegetation that might
impair the visibility of your address
sign.
This is also a good time of year to
make sure your mailbox is securely
attached to the post and properly in-
stalled to avoid problems during the
winter snow plowing season

PARKS AND TRAILS
New Play Equipment at Mahler Park
There will be two new playsets installed at Mahler Park this summer. One to
accommodate the younger children and a larger set for the older kids.
Improvement such as these are funded through the public recreational impact
fees assessed on all new construction. The Impact Fee is collected and used
for construction and equipping public recreational facilities. The Parks and
Trails Committee hopes you will take some time this summer to get out to the
parks to enjoy the facilities, play games and walk the trail along CTH CB.
