Protest petition filed against rezoning requestBY THOMAS J. MCKILLENMANAGING EDITOR

The proposed rezoning of 14.7 acres ofland owned by the Germantown SchoolDistrict south of Kinderberg Park and north ofDonges Bay Road will require approval byseven of nine members on the GermantownVillage board.

The district is seeking to sell the land forresidential development, with Veridian Homesthe residential developer for the site.On Dec.17, the Village Board approved a rezoning ofthe property from A-2 Agricultural to Rs-6Single Family. At the time, Veridian was pro-posing a 30-lot subdivision at the site. Theboard reconsidered the rezoning request at itsJan. 7 meeting and sent it back to the PlanCommission. The Plan Commission postponedaction April 8 on a rezoning request thatwould have allowed for a 27-lot subdivisionon the property.

The most recent zoning proposal, whichwould allow an Rs5 zoning for a 24-lot subdi-vision at the site, was supported by the PlanCommission on Aug. 12 and was on the agen-da for the Aug. 19 Village Board meeting forfinal consideration. However, there were onlysix members of the board present at the meet-ing. Village Attorney Brian Sajdak said nota-rized protest petition was submitted to thevillage by several property owners adjacent tothe school district property, which would

require approval a three-quarters of theVillage Board, or seven of nine board mem-bers. The board went ahead with the publichearing for the request but held the publichearing open until the next board meeting onSept. 16 and also tabled final action on therezoning until the September meeting.

During the public hearing, nearby resi-dents reiterated their opposition to the pro-posal. Resident Christine Huber said the aver-age size of lots in other subdivisions sur-rounding Kinderberg Park is 20,632 squarefeet, with the smallest lot being just under17,000 square feet. Huber said the proposalbefore the board had 15,000 square foot lotsadjacent to the park. She added that thePreserve subdivision, which is most visiblefrom Kinderberg Park, is zoned a strict Rs4designation with no exceptions. Huber saidany subdivision for the district propertyshould also be in a Rs4 zoning classification,with no exceptions.

Resident Jan Miller said the 24-lot pro-posal from Veridian Homes "is not in keepingwith high standards of The Preserve, HeritageHills and Windsong subdivisions." Miller saidshe submitted the petitions by all propertyowners who are directly adjacent to the dis-trict property. Miller said she objected to theuse of vinyl siding in the proposed develop-ment. She said vinyl siding is not allowed in

A public hearing has been rescheduled to hear com-ments from Washington County residents regarding aproposed special assessment on property tax bills ofresidents with private on-site wastewater treatmentsystems (POWTS).

The public hearing will be held at the WashingtonCounty Fair Park Pavilion Hall, 3000 Hwy. PV, at 6 p.m.Aug. 27.

The assessment would not apply to properties thatare connected to municipal water and sewer systems.

According to a report prepared by the county, thecounty is required by state law to maintain and inven-tory and administer and enforce state regulationsregarding private, on-site waste treatment systems. Thecounty estimated that 20,313 parcels are served by pri-vate, on-site waste treatment systems

"Staff is recommending program costs be assessed at$11 per parcel annually served by POWTS or $11 per sys-tem, whichever is greater based on the above cost esti-mate," the report states. The report states that 99.5

percent of parcels would be assessed at the annual $11feel. Four parcels in the county would annually becharged $66, six would be charged $55, four would becharged $44, 10 would be charged $33 and 80 parcelswould annually be charged $22.

The county estimates that the fee from all suchparcels would generate $225,159 annually. The totalcounty costs for the program are estimated at$227,527.

PET OF THE WEEKHi, I'm Hydro and I'm as handsome as they come! I'm a big,beefy guy who's got all the love in the world to give. I'm asuper friendly guy who's at a great age. I'm content to layaround and hangout, but can still have a blast playing. When I get riled up Ican get a tad vocal and mouthy. Not only am I playful, but I'm very smart,too! I know sit and down, and I can catch treats midair. I can be very tolerantwhen playing with other dogs, but it would be best if dogs in my new homewere calm and respectful of me. The staff here says I show somethingcalled "potential" when it comes to the feline variety. If there are cats in mynew home, I will need to be retested before going home. Lastly, any childrenin my new home should be 8 years and older. If you'd be interested inteaching an older dog some new tricks, come check me out at WCHS!

The Preserve and the Windsong subdivi-sions.

Germantown School Board PresidentBob Soderberg reiterated that the pro-

posal "is the right thing to for our com-munity, our taxpapers -- and yes, forour kids." Soderberg said that prior tothe 2016 referendum, the district sur-veyed the community and found therewas not support for a new school. As theDonges Bay property was no longerneeded for a school site, it wasappraised and put on the market in2017.

Soderberg said the 24 homes will bebring in revenue for the school districtand village. Additional revenue could bebrought in to the school district shouldstudents from the subdivision attendthe Germantown district, as state aid isbased on enrollment.

BY THOMAS J. MCKILLENMANAGING EDITOR

The Washington County Board is con-tinuing the process of considering themove to a county executive form of gov-ernment.

Day-to-day operations of county gov-ernment are currently managed by acounty administrator appointed by theWashington County Board. There havebeen discussions in the past aboutchanging to a county executive form ofgovernance, in which the executive isdirectly elected by voters. The countyexecutive form of governance in is placein Milwaukee and Waukesha counties insoutheastern Wisconsin.

The Washington County Board reject-ed the move to the county executiveposition at its June 12 meeting.However, a motion was submitted to theboard to reconsider the vote. Action onthe motion was postponed at the Aug. 14meeting. On Aug. 12, the CountyExecutive Ad Hoc Committee recom-mended the change to a county execu-tive form of government.

The next County Executive Ad HocCommittee will be meeting at 6 p.m.Aug. 26 at the Tennies GovernmentCenter, 423 W. Washington St. in WestBend.

During a presentation at the Aug. 14County Board meeting, CountyAdministrator Joshua Schoemann sum-marized a presentation he gave to thecommittee meeting two days earlier.

“This discussion is very important forWashington County, monumental inmany ways,” Schoemann said.

Schoemann said he received directionfrom the county Ethics Committee that itis his job to counsel the board on optionsregarding governance, and gave a thor-ough presentation to the committee andthen the board.

Schoemann said when he started ascounty manager, he talked about the roleabout county manager compared withthe previous position of county coordi-nator, with the latter having “all theresponsibility but none of the authoritythat the county administrator has.”

Schoemann cited the ideas of JohnNalbandian, professor emeritus at theKansas University in his presentation.

“His argument is that politics andadministration is a dichotomy: Theymeet together, oftentimes crossing pathswith one another, but they rely heavilyon one another and are distinct from oneanother. They speak two totally differentlanguages,” Schoemann said.

Schoemann described politics as the“battle of ideas. That is something I’mgoing to argue in the rest of this presen-tation is missing in Washington County.A battle of ideas doesn’t happen as muchas it often should, and I think it has ledto some of the discussions or stalemateswe’ve had in the past 15 months.”

Schoemann said that politics “iswhere ideas happen and where ideasclash.” While that can turn into power

struggles, that has occurred during theorganizational meeting for theWashington County Board. Schoemannsaid that rarely have there been politicaldebates or candidates, at least in termsof people running for seats on theCounty Board.

Schoemann then described a “publicpolicy gap” of what is happening day-to-day to the public policy changes thatneed to be made, which is the job of thecounty administrator. The job of theelected official is the “politics” to man-age the gap between themselves and theelectorate.

Schoemann said that of the 52 racesfor seats on the County Board over thepast two years, even in competitive races“I can likely count on one hand thosethat likely resulted in a true public poli-cy debate about any issue.”

He said few of the races addressedwhat a candidate wanted to do in termsof issues on the County Board comparedwith an opponent.

“More often that not, there’s noteven another candidate to look at,” hesaid.

Schoemann said there was a publicpolicy debate during the 2018 countySheriff election as to what the agencyshould look like.

What should happen is that staff isbringing ideas to the board that are fis-cally feasible, while the board has to tellstaff what is politically acceptable.Schoemann said “there has been a sig-nificant breakdown in this process” overthe previous 15 months.

Schoemann cited an instance a fewweeks earlier in which the board previ-ously approved a fee by a 20-6 vote butthen after a public hearing “about half ofthe board is not interested anymore.”

“That debate should be happening inelection processes, not in the middle ofa year when we’re trying to create abudget. That creates unnecessary poli-tics,” Schoemann said.

What has happened is votes that aredecided on by one-supervisor margins or

tie votes. Schoemann said that when thestate provides options for the county tofund unfunded mandates, it createsproblems that leads to budget work-shops.

“I’m asking you to think long andhard of how you want politics played outin Washington County,” he said.Schoemann suggested that to allowpolitical debate in the county, eitherreduce the number of County Board seatsfrom the current 26 or go to a countyexecutive model.

“One or the other is needed to havegood, constructive debate on the politi-cal platform which happens out in themonth of April and the month ofFebruary,” he said.

Schoemann said other factors thatare happening is the county populationis growing while there are fewer mediaresources to get the word out aboutcounty activities. He added that “fewcontested races are problematic.”

Schoemann said there are situationswhere staff is at public meetings regard-ing highway issues when residents oftenwant to talk with elected officials.

“Politics is necessary and this iswhere it happens: All politics is local,”Schoemann said.

During discussion, Supervisor FrankCarr said there a few people inWashington County and elsewhere whowant to serve.

“If you don’t have people who wantto stand up and serve, you don’t have adebate,” Carr said. He said not havingfewer supervisors would make a differ-ence.

Supervisor Michael Bassill said theboard needs to be downsized.

“We need to start looking at what’sbest for the county in 2030, 2040, 2050and right now we’re hashing out stuffthat’s in the present,” Bassill said.

Supervisor Denis Kelling said havinga county executive election would be ahigher profile race across the county thatwould draw more attention to countyissues.

The world of healthcare can be confusing tonavigate. Before the prevalence of health mainte-nance organizations and various other health andwellness insurance groups, obtaining medicalassistance involved going to the doctor and thenpaying the bill. But today people must navigatecopayments, coinsurance, deductibles, and savingsplans, which can make it difficult to understandwhat’s going on with your insurance company.

Healthcare is standardized in some areas of theworld and publicly financed with little to no out-of-pocket costs for participating citizens. Elsewhere,access to health insurance is provided throughemployers or government assistance programs orindividually purchased.

Understanding some health insurance-relatedjargon is a great way to better educate oneself aboutthe industry.

• Benefit period: The benefit period refers to theduration of time services are covered under yourplan. It is usually a calendar year from the point ofstart to end. It may begin each year on an anniver-sary date when you first received coverage.

• Coinsurance: This is a percentage of the cost ofservices rendered in specific areas outlined by thehealth plan that you are responsible for after adeductible is met. For example, a plan may cover 85

percent of costs, withpatients responsible forthe remaining 15.

• Copayment (copay):A copayment refers to theflat rate you pay to aprovider at the time youreceive services. Someplans do not have copays.

• Deductible: Theamount you pay forhealth services before theinsurance company pays.You must meet a set limit,which varies by plan andprovider, before insur-ance will kick in andcover the remaining costs during the benefit peri-od. Many plans have a $2,000 per persondeductible. This deductible renews with each cal-endar year.

• HMO: A health maintenance organizationoffers services only with specific HMO providers.Referrals from a primary care doctor often areneeded to see specialists.

• HSA: A health savings account enables you toset aside pre-tax income up to a certain limit for

certain medical expens-es.

• Long-term careinsurance: A specifichealthcare plan that canbe used for in-homenursing care or to pay forthe medical services androom and board forassisted living/nursinghome facilities.

• Network provider:This is a healthcareprovider who is part of aplan’s network. Manyinsurance companiesnegotiate set rates with

providers to keep costs low. They will only pay out agreater percentage to network providers.

• Non-network provider: A healthcare providerwho is not part of a plan’s network. Costs may behigher if you visit a non-network provider or if youare not covered at all.

• PPO: A preferred provider organization is atype of insurance plan that offers more extensivecoverage for in-network services, but offer addi-tional coverage for out-of-network services.

Understanding the jargon of health insurance

Navigating health insurance is easier when policy hold-ers understand some common industry jargon.


by Dr. Jillian Ewing Haas

A large part of my practice is keep-ing my patients healthy — not justtaking care of them when they aresick. As our thoughts turn to footballand cooler weather, I’m offering thesefive tips to manage your own wellness.

1. Schedule your mammogram,prostate and colon cancer screenings

Breast cancer is the most prevalentcancer among American women.Early detection, through monthlybreast exams and regularly scheduledmammograms, can increase yourchances of survival. It is importantfor all women to talk to their doctorabout getting a mammogram regular-ly, typically beginning at age 40.

One in seven men will developprostate cancer. With early detection,prostate cancer is highly curable. Forall men, the risk of prostate cancergoes up at age 50. For African-American men, it is age 40. Talk withyour doctor to find out if a screening isright for you.

Colon cancer is another leadingcause of death in men and women. Alladults over the age of 50 should bescreened at regular intervals becauseearly detection can save lives. Talkwith your doctor about your screen-ing options.

2. Get your flu shotThe flu goes around every year and

is more common in the fall and win-ter. Some seasons are worse than oth-ers. In the 2017-18 flu outbreak,Wisconsin had the highest number offlu cases on record with more than20,000 cases, according to theWisconsin Department of Health andHuman Services. More than 3,000people were hospitalized and most ofthem were over the age of 65. It isimportant to take steps to protectyourself against the influenza virus,which can be deadly. According to theCenters for Disease Control andPrevention (CDC), getting the flu shotis the best way to prevent influenzaand its complications.

For the last two years, the CDConly recommended the injectableform of the influenza vaccine. Theagency advised against the nasalspray because the spray was not aseffective at protecting against certainstrains of the virus. This year, the nasalspray is expected to work better, andthe CDC now recommends either theinjectable flu vaccine or nasal sprayflu vaccine for individuals six months

and older.Fever, chills, body aches, fatigue

and a sore throat are all symptoms ofthe flu. If you think you may have theflu, talk to your doctor.

3. Schedule your physicalAnnual wellness visits and routine

screenings can detect risk factors forchronic diseases or conditions, likehigh blood pressure or high choles-terol. The screenings are used to findor manage diseases and conditionssuch as cancer, stroke, heart disease,diabetes and arthritis. Your doctor willhelp you develop a prevention ortreatment plan and refer you to a spe-cialist if needed.

4. Keep movingStaying active can be challenging

as the weather turns colder and thedays become shorter, but beingsedentary increases the risk of weightgain. Adapt your workout plan to thechanging season. Consider a groupexercise class or swimming at anindoor pool. Make sure your routineincludes a warm up and a cool downperiod. This will reduce your risk ofinjury.

Spending time outside can alsoboost your mood. Seasonal AffectiveDisorder, also known as SAD, happensduring the changing of seasons andpresents with depressive symptoms. Ifyou are experiencing changes inmood, talk with your provider. Theexact cause is unclear, but someresearchers believe the condition iscaused by a vitamin D deficiency.Sunlight is a natural source of vitaminD.

5. Check your deductibleAs the end of the calendar year

approaches, it is a good time to checkin with your health insurance compa-ny and find out where you stand interms of hitting your deductible andout-of-pocket maximum. Both willreset in 2020. Now might be a goodtime to schedule any medical treat-ment you have been delaying asinsurance may cover a large portion ofthe cost. Be sure to get an estimate tohelp you understand the true cost.

People may be familiar with physical therapy,which many are prescribed after suffering asports-related injury or being injured in an acci-dent. But less may know about occupational ther-apy, a form of therapy that can help individualslive full, happy lives even if they’re dealing withpermanent disabilities or chronic conditions.

The American Occupational TherapyAssociation, Inc., says that occupational therapyhelps people perform daily tasks to reach goals.This can include helping children or adults withdisabilities participate fully in work or school.Occupational therapy also may intervene duringor after a physical or mental illness so that one canregain lost skills. Occupational therapists tend tofocus on treating people who need assistance witha physical, sensory or cognitive disability. OT prac-

titioners address psychological, social and envi-ronmental factors that can impact a person’s abil-ity to function.

Even though one may think OTs primarily treatadults, especially aging seniors, this is not thecase. The health and wellness resourceKidsHealth, from Nemours, indicates that childrenalso benefit. Occupational therapists can workwith children after surgery or help those withbehavioral problems. OTs also help childrenrecover after suffering traumatic injuries, and caneven help kids with developmental delays.

Occupational therapy differs from physicaltherapy. While physical therapy deals with pain,range of motion, endurance, and strength, amongother things, the AOTA notes that OT tries to honefine motor skills, visual-perception skills and cog-

nitive skills and to lessen sensory-processingdeficits. Very often OT is used in conjunction withPT.

Occupational therapy can be a rewardingcareer with many different opportunities.Therapists work in various settings, includingschools, hospitals, rehab facilities, nursing homes,and even in independent practices. In addition,new specialities, such as assisting those with lowvision or helping workers adapt to ergonomictools, enable even more specialized concentra-tions.

People who think they can benefit from occu-pational therapy should first consult with a pri-mary care physician or a discharge team from ahospital to find out which OT services may benefitthem

Occupational therapy has many benefits

NEWS & EVENTS

PHOTOS BY THOMAS J. MCKILLENThe third annual StepUp4Kids fund raising event for the MACC Fund was held on Aug. 18. This year’s event was moved from Spassland Park to nearby County Line Elementary School dueto rain. The event featured a free throw shooting contest and silent auction. Among those shooting free throws were (from left) Ethan Volz, Heidi Betz, Nikolas Ciardo and Owen Bryl.

The Washington County Board approved an ordi-nance at its Aug. 14 meeting to line up maintenancerequirements of Private Onsite Wastewater TreatmentSystems (POWTS) with the state administrative code.

Under the changes, all POWTS will be required tohave maintenance undertaken by a licensed individualand a report filed with the county. While the countyordinance required maintenance to systems installedsince 1979, the changes extend the requirement to allsystems in the county. According to information from

county staff, an additional 7,000 to 8,000 POWTS sys-tems will be added to the county inspection program.

The second change replaces the county requirementof a two-year interval of maintenance for at-grade andin-ground systems to three years for all POWTS systems.The ordinance does not apply to properties that areserved by municipal sewer and water.

Supervisor Marilyn Merten added the changeinvolves updating the county requirements and doesnot involve adding a fee for such inspection to the

property tax bill, which is a separate issue. Supervisor Tim Michalak said the change is being

required by the state, calling the requirement “anunfunded mandate from the state.”

Supervisor Joe Gonnering added “it’s all about timethey’re on the same year/cycle – that’s the biggestquestions we get.”

“I’m glad to see it is every three years now,”Gonnering said.
