Village Board Seeks Input on ATVs, UTVs and/or Golf Carts on Roads

Update 9/29/21 – About 50 community members were in attendance for a public hearing on September 27 regarding the use of ATV’s, UTV’s and/or golf carts on Village roads. Wisconsin statutes currently prohibit the use of these vehicles on the road, unless the Village Board were to adopt an ordinance to allow them. The Board heard input from a variety of perspectives, and we would like to thank everyone who participated in the discussion all while being respectful to one another’s views and concerns.

After the hearing, there was a consensus among Village Board members to instruct staff to draft a resolution to place two advisory (non-binding) referendum questions on the next spring ballot – one question regarding support for allowing ATVs and UTVs on Village roads, and a separate referendum question regarding support for allowing golf carts on the roads. The resolution is expected to be considered by the Board at its next regular meeting on October 11.
