Olson Route 3, Ashland, Wisconsin October 20, 1961 Dear �oard of Supervisors: The So Bay Co Sportsmans Club went on record at their meeting October 18th by;7- unanimous vote to extend their thanks to,the Bayfield County Board of Supervisors for the support you have given us in the projects we have undertaken in the last two years. We are happy to report that the Bearsdale Spring Dam is .in and in good shape, the water level is high and the water is clear. The Town of Drummond helped with this project and we also had a full day of volunteer workers from our club and the Eau Claire Lake Conservation Club. You had allowed us $300.00 for this dam project and Mr. Bernard Johnson reported that the cost has run over about $60.00 which our club and the Eau Claire Lake Club will pay. We feel sure that this has been a worthwhile project and a great improvement. The wing dams on the Namakagon Diver have also been completed so that the river is deepened at that point and made navigable by canoe. The Eighteen Mile Creek project that we have been working on has.been a difficult one. As you probably know the old channel had filled in to the point where thre was none; the Conservation Department determined the location of the new channel for the creek and the blasting was done. Everything looked fine until we had some heavy rain and it again began to fill in until the creek was almost back to where it was before the work began. Howard Fallis from the Area Conservation Office at Spooner has in- spected it and the department will make a survey of levels to determine where the chann- el should be and proceed to correct it. All in all, we feel that these projects have been a good beginning to stream improvement. Without the money appropriated for conservation by you they would not have been possible and we are grateful for your support. Our club will soon be starting it's third year and we feel that we should and will be able to help more financially in our projects in the future. However, we urge you to continue your appropriation for conservation as throe is much to be done in Bayfield County to preserve it for those who love to hunt, fish, or just enjoy its beauty. Thank you again. Very sincerely Yours, So Bay Co Sportsman's Club Maybeth J. Foster, Sec., Drummond, Wis. Moved by Tribovich and seconded by Bernard E. Johnson to receive the foregoing communication and place on file. Motion carried.

Olsen, Chairman Bayfield County Board - Court House Bayfield, Wisconsin Ashland Municipal Airport Dear Mr. Olsen: The City of 'Ashland is considering the improvement of its airport by the installa- tion of a hot sheet overlay on the existing runway pavements. This airport serves Bayfield and Ashland Counties as well as the City of Ashland and as I recall, Bayfield County participated financially in the original development of the airport, which is a mighty fine thing to have done, and which has worked out to the -benefit of the entire Chequamegon Bay area. When this airport was built the hot sheet surface, which was a part of the origin- al design, was omitted in order to keep the cost. down. In lieu thereof the top 3" of the base course was made into a temporary surface, by the use of asphalt and with turnover method. It was intended at that time that after two or three years there would be a further project to install a hot sheet surface which had to be omitted because of finances originally. The surface should now be installed and it appears that the project will be eligible for federal aids as well as state aid. The project is estimated to cost $7290009 with the cost divided $36,000 Federal, State $10,000 and the city of Ashland $26,000. In view of the importance of this airport to Bayfield County it seems proper that I advise you of the presently contemplated program since you may wish to participate with the City of Ashland in meeting the sponsor's cost and want to make provision accordingly in your county budget. If any further information is required, we will be glad to supply it. TKJ/gb cc: Mayor Harry Simon, Ashland Very truly yours, WISCONSIN STATE AERONAUTICS COMMISSION T. K. Jordan, .

The following communications were read: August 9, 1961 Mr. Ludwig Tranmal County Clerk, Bayfield County Washburn, Wisconsin Re: .That part of the SW/ of the SW/9 Section 7-46-7, which lies west Dear Mr. 'Tranmal-: and south of the present west water line of Lake Delta This firm represents Mr.'Carl Weschcke and Carl L. Vescheke of St. Paul, Minnesota. You have previously had some correspondence with Mr. Carl L. Weschcke regarding this matter, but to make sure that there is no misunderstanding I will briefly review the facts. On July 10, 1934, Mr. Carl Weschcke and his wife and Mr. Charles Weschcke and his wife joined in a conveyance of the -property described above. The deed expressly reserved the right to raise the present water level of the said Lake Delta and flood and overflow any part of the premises. By reason of the description in that deed, the islands in Lake Delta were not conveyed since only land lying west and south of the west water line was contained in the description. Subsequently Mr. Perrin was apparen erroneously listed on tax rolls as owner of the entire 40. He became delinquent, and we understand that in 1959 the County took tax title to the entire 40. By letter of October 18, 1960, Carl L. Weschcke indicated to you his desire to re- November' 8., 1961_, establish title. to,the ,islands in his father, Carl Weschcke. By resolution ,dated April 18, 1961.1 it appears that the County resolved to retain the land for purpose.s..of public egress to the lake, the same to be made into a public parking lot. It appears to us that this still leaves certain important questions remaining. In the first place, Mr. Weschcke is particularly desirous of re—establishing his title, if it is impaired, to the islands in the lake, which, of course, have nothing to do with public ingress and egress. In addition, by reason of the original deed, the Weschckes retained an easement to overflow the property conveyed. It seems fairly clearly established in Wisconsin that an easement to overflow property does not become extinguished by reason of a'tax sale of the property subject to the easement. Union Falls Power Co. v. Marinette County, 238 Wis. 1349 298 N.W. 598; Doherty v. Rice, 240 Wis. 3899 3 N.W. 2d 7342 7380 Since Mr. Weschcke retains the right.to raise the lake level and overflow the property, it_seems:a rather inappropriate spot for a parking lot. In any event, we do wish to remind the County that all rights of the easement currently lodge in Mr. Weschcke. Since the County apparently has no present declared reason to retain the title to the islands, and since Mr. Weschcke is primarily desirous of clearing his title to the islands, it would seem that this should be able to be worked out satisfactorily to all parties.: If the County wishes to consider and make known their intentions in regard to the islands, we will be most interested. We also would be very grateful if you would provide us with the date on which the land was sold to the County for taxes, and the amount of delinquent taxes, if your office has such information. Thank you very much, WCC;w Mr. Ludwig Tranmal Bayfield County Clerk County Court House Washburn, Wisconsin Dear Mr. Tranmals Very truly yours, OPPENHEIMER, HODGSON, BROWN, BAER AND WOLFF By William C. Canby, Jr. October 6, 1961 It has come to our attention that Bayfield County proposes to' create a pu*blic park in the SW/ of the SW/ of Section 7, Township 46 North, Range 7 West in the Town of Delta. We wish to call attention to the fact that the access roadway to the foregoing description runs across our land; that is, the N14/ of the NW/ of Section 18. We feel that this roadway was a private roadway which Mr. Perrin, the former owner of the SW/1 of the SWf , Section 7 may have had the right to continue using but that whatever rights he had would not inure to the benefit of .the succeeding tax title owner of the SW/ of the. SW/ whether that was Bayfield County or a private individual. While we have not, as owners of the NW1% of the NW/ objected to the use of the November 8, 1961 roadway in question ,by•..Mr. Perrin, as a neighboring -property owner, we feel obliged to object to making this.a public road. We request that this letter be referred to the appropriate committee.of the County Board which is studying this matter and that our objection be registered with the County Board when the matter comes before it for consideration early this fall.

City of kshland, Wisconsin November 8, 1961 Ron Harrison, Chairman of the Ashland-Bayfield Airport Commission and myself would like to express our appreciation to you for the time given us at your county board meeting on Tuesday, November 7, 1961. There can be no doubt that the position taken by several of the members present - namely - since the City of Ashland and not the County levies the tax for airport opera- tions, it does not appear reasonable that Bayfield County should be asked to partici- pate in any contributions toward the resurfacing of the Ashland-Bayfield Airport. It so happened that at a meeting last night at the Ashland City Hall, there were several Ashland County Board members representing districts outside of Ashland, present. 'vdhen•I informed thaw of what occurred at the time I presented the matter to the board they agreed thatth.e position taken by several .of your board, under the present circumstances,,was correct.. They then suggested that the issue would be pre- sented at their board meeting on Tuesday, November 149 at which time they would suggest that their participation should be one third. I realize that you would not want to take a position until the Ashland County Board 'acted. Since the board meeting'is to be held a week after yours., it occurred to me that you might want to take some preliminary action -in this matter, awaiting the final decision of the Ashland..County Board.

November .10, .1961: The following Report was.read: OFFICE OF CIUIL.DEFENSE — BAYFIELD'COUNTY WISCONSIN November 7, 1961 The Personnel Committee County'Board of Supervisors Bayfield County Board Washburn; Wisconsin Gentlemen: I submit this report to you Gentlemen on the progress and facts on the Civil Defense program in Bayfield County. It has been a hard up hill pull to get Civil Defense in high gear as there has been very little help from the State Civil Defense Office.until recently. They have been understaffed and were unable to give much advice due to the fact that the Federal Government has been making drastic changes in Civil Defense the past few months. I have been able to get some promises of more aid for Bayfield County to continue their Civil Defense Training and also some aid in the Administration of the office so that more can be done to get the 'information out to the people of the county and to further the development of a good sound working program in Civil Defense. We must all realize that we have been threatened recently by the testing of the Nuclear bombs with fallout radiation and the Federal Government has called this seriousness to our attention for action and they are going to spend millions of dollars to make sure that there is a good sound program on Civil Defense Survival. Bayfield County is a part of this program and we will get our share of aids as long as we continue to work hard on Civil Defense. To date we have received the total of $330.25 in cash as part of the Federal matching fund program, and we are to receive in the near future another sizeable amount to aid the County. The State Director.of Civil Defense stated that as of July 1962 these aids could be greatly increased providing that we get our plan approved. Within the next few months I expect to have the Bayfield County Survival Plan complet— ed. This plan will include all political subdivisions within the County. We will use all their present resources until the time that the State and Federal Government will allot us more to use in our plan. This survival.plan is not just an overnight project it is very serious as it must be planned well enough for the people of Bayfield County to be able to understand its entirety and what part that they come under. Survival is only when -the prople are informed on what to do and when to do it. Most of all they must be willing to give time so the plan can work properly. Gentlemen: my report may seem a little drawn out but each one of you according to law are directly responsible to the Community which you represent and to see that there is an adequate Civil Defense. program. To get the people to take part and train on Civil Defense is your responsibility also. Taking an active part yourself will result in a short time a good program. I will assist you in every way possible and see that you have proper training and well planned meetings so that in your community you will be prepared for any emergency. I have appreciated your fine cooperation and hope that it will continue. Those who have not taken part in Civil Defense will do s,o shortly as there will be more classes near your community so there will be no reason for your not having Civil Defense trained personnel in your own area. With proper trained Civil Defense workers we can survive. Thank you. Respectively submitted, Thomas E. Anderson, Civil Defense Director. 3Rt3 November 10, 1961 i Moved by Arthur C.
