Please find attached the entire Comprehensive Plan! What an accomplishment- there is no way we could have gotten this far in the process without your significant input and I really thank you for all that you have done thus far. You have, at this point in time, seen the entire plan. There is nothing that is new information as far as intent of the plan goes but you will notice some changes as suggested by you at various meetings along the way. All changes as noted in the minutes have been made to the doucment. You will notice that there are still a few very minor parts in the plan that are highlighted for further revision. I need to verify final road data in section 3.3, review the figures of acres of features in sections 5.3-5.7, we need to update the list of types of people that attended the focus group relating to Chapters 5 and 8, there are still two small paragraphs of text missing in Section 5.18 (Program information about the Sustainability Board and the Historical Society), and I need to insert some additional language relating to transportation and utilities in Chapter 8. The photos need to be inserted and the Appendices need to be attached. You will notice that all sections needing work should be highlighted. This draws both your and my attention to the fact that there is still information that we are working on. The areas that are still incomplete do not affect the intent of the plan in any way and we are striving to have all sections complete by the time that the final PC packets go out on Friday. At that point you will receive another small document with these sections attached for review along with another memo that updates you on anything that is not yet complete. It is our intent to put forward a resolution for distribution of the Comprehensive Plan at the meeting next week. I hope that you will all take a very good look at the document in the next week as a whole and come to the meeting with ideas and suggestions that will enhance the document as desired. Our anticipated schedule continues to be: The information contained in this memorandum is considered privileged and confidential and is intended only for the use of recipients and Foth. 2737 South Ridge Road, Suite 600 ••• P.O.

As stated in the previous memo, the staff and I were still working on finalizing some changes as requested by the PC when the document went to print. The following changes have been made and are attached in the accompanying additional materials: Section 3.3- update of road classification data Focus group information for Chapters 5 and 8 Revised section of Community Design (5.14) Final verification of acreages of natural features in Chapter 5 (not included in materials) Addition of language regarding alternative energy sources in Chapter 9 Appendix B We still need to insert two small paragraphs regarding the purpose of the Sustainability Board and the Historical Society (Chapter 5 programs section), a paragraph about Tranportation and Utilities in Chapter 8 and photos. That should all be taken care of in the next week or so. We are also working to ensure that the mapping is all up to date. We have created new maps per your requests for Service Sewer Areas and Boundary Agreements. We are working on some clarification issues on the Natural Features Map and also working to update the Future Land Use map pending changes as previously discussed at PC meetings. The maps will be distributed as part of this packet as well. I know that the plan, as presented, is intimidating due to its length. I would like to stress that nothing in this document is new to you. You have reviewed and accepted all chapters of the plan on the following dates: Chapter 1- November 20, December 18, 2007 and January 8, 2008 Chapter 2- January 8, 2008 Chapter 3- December 18, 2007 and January 8, 2008 Chapter 4- January 8, 2007 The information contained in this memorandum is considered privileged and confidential and is intended only for the use of recipients and Foth. 2737 South Ridge Road, Suite 600 ••• P.O.

  • The 7 Natural Wonders of Wisconsin These “Mother Nature-Made” Wonders Are the Setting for Some of the Best Outdoor Recreation in the Nation
    MEDIA CONTACT: Danielle Johnson, Wisconsin Department of Tourism Phone: 608-266-0458 Email: [email protected] Lisa Marshall, Wisconsin Department of Tourism Phone: 608-267-3773 Email: [email protected] Media Room: http://media.travelwisconsin.com FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE The 7 Natural Wonders of Wisconsin These “Mother Nature-made” wonders are the setting for some of the best outdoor recreation in the nation MADISON, Wis. (July 26, 2011) – In a state known for its love of the good earth and clean waters, we thought it would be fun to create a list of the Natural Wonders of Wisconsin. We could have made the list twice as long, but for some reason seven seemed like the perfect number. These “Mother Nature-made” wonders are the setting for some of the best outdoor recreation in the nation. 1. The Apostle Islands National Lakeshore Calling to the explorer in all of us, this national park is a grouping or “archipelago” of 21 wilderness islands dotting the cold waters of Lake Superior and more than a dozen miles of shoreline with some of the most pristine remaining sandscapes in the Great Lakes region. National Geographic Explorer magazine named it a top place to visit. There are old-growth forests, windswept beaches and cliffs. There are sea caves to explore, carved out over thousands of years by the rhythmic waves. When the winter weather conditions are right you can hike out to the caves to behold frozen waterfalls and chambers glistening with thousands of icicles. While beautiful from the shore, you must see them by boat or, even better, set foot on an island and camp at one of the 60-some rustic sites.

    IDWEST FLYER M AGAZINE JUNE/JULY 2016 Published For & By The Midwest Aviation Community Since 1978 midwestflyer.com Finding a fi x for TFRs Just about anyone who has planned a fl ight in or near a major metro area has had to worry about temporary fl ight restrictions (TFRs) at one time or another. Scrolling through dozens, even hundreds, of NOTAMs to identify TFRs that are relevant to your fl ight can be daunting. The sheer number can make it easy to miss something. But when you have access to good graphics, you can instantly see if a TFR will a ect your fl ight. Unfortunately, graphics aren’t available for every TFR. And when graphics are unavailable or are inaccurate, the number of violations goes way up. That’s why AOPA will be helping to lead an e ort to improve TFR graphics, from how the information is delivered to how it is depicted. Back in 2015, we started asking questions about the scope and extent of problems we were seeing with TFRs that either had no graphics or, maybe worse, showed incorrect graphics. After uncovering recurring issues, we asked the FAA to provide an authoritative online source of TFR information, provide TFR information in a consistent format so that automated systems used by third-party vendors can translate it into accurate graphics, and work to make the text of TFR NOTAMs more user friendly for pilots. This April, the FAA responded by formally tasking the RTCA Tactical Operations Committee to address the issues we raised and report back with recommendations within six months.

  • Let Us Treat Your Aircraft to the Best in Cockpit Technology
    IDWEST FLYER M AGAZINE OCTOBER/NOVEMBER 2017 Published For & By The Midwest Aviation Community Since 1978 midwestflyer.com ATC Not for Sale Former US Airways pilot Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger, famously known for his successful landing of US Airways Flight 1549 on the Hudson River has spoken out against air tra c control privatization (H.R. 2997)—and he’s asking fellow pilots to do the same. With more than 50 years of industry experience, including general aviation, military, and airline, Sullenberger asserts that privatizing ATC “would allow a corporate monopoly to make decisions that put profi ts ahead of safety and would devastate rural communities,” and believes that privatization would hand “control to the largest airlines, giving them the keys to the kingdom.” In July of this year, AOPA along with 130 other general aviation groups voiced their concerns against privatization and collectively agree that the private entity that would run the ATC system would be dominated by the airlines, and GA would not have a seat at the table. Sullenberger supports those concerns in supportive ads he has created and concludes by stating that privatization is a “threat to our nation’s security, safety, access, and basic fairness.” AOPA encourages all GA supporters to contact their representatives in Congress and help spread the word to fellow aviators about the threat ATC privatization poses to GA. To contact your representative directly, visit aopa.org/takeaction or call (855) 383-7330, toll free, to be directly connected to your representative after entering your zip code. Mark R. Baker President & CEO, AOPA *For more information on the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association and the issues that aff ect your fl ying go to www.aopa.org today.
