TO: EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
FROM: MARK ABELES-ALLISON
RE: EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE AGENDA AMENDMENTS
DATE: JUNE 7, 2023
Attached please find several amendments to the Executive Committee agenda.
Item 10: Adding word Resolution and please find the 2011 UWS Park and Ride
Inventory prepared.
Item 11. Modifying description of Dispatch to Public Service Answering Point,
providing amended Resolution with several updates, attaching draft
Intergovernmental Agreement, and designating project manager and agreeing to
50% cost share for project manager.
Item 12: The Bayfield County Housing Authority is filling a ½ time position. The
new Housing Authority Director has experience and expertise in housing
development that would result in a variety of home development opportunities
given the time. Additional office assistance, moving from a ½ time Administrative
Assistant to a full time would cost $30,000. Bayfield County has housing funds in
the 2023 budget. The Housing Authority has inquired if Bayfield County would be
willing to make a committee over three years to fund a full-time administrative
position for the housing authority. I think this is a good investment towards more
housing in Bayfield County.
Item 13: The Personnel Committee has discussed a Volunteer Policy over the past
two meetings. Forestry needs a policy in place for some of their projects. We
have discussed the policy several times with the Fair and are continuing to make
adjustments. While we are not quite there yet, we would like to put this policy in
place so Forestry can proceed.
Attached is the draft policy.
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE NARRATIVE, JUNE 8, 2023
Item 4: All departments reporting to the Executive Committee were invited to
make budget presentations in June, July, or August. No one has responded for
June yet.
Item 5: Our existing insufficient Funds ordinance specifies that the county may
retain overpayments of $2 and $2 for underpayments. Jenna Galligan, County
Treasurer recommends updating this to reflect time spent billing and writing
checks. We propose modifying sections B to read $5 for overpayments and $3 for
underpayments.
Jenna wrote “this does have a large impact on my office, especially during tax time
in July. It all ends up being mostly a wash as we get many underpayments and
many overpayments by insignificant amounts”.
If approved, we would prepare an ordinance amendment for the County Board.
Item 6: The County Board identified Housing as a top focus area at the recent
budget planning meeting. Kellie Pederson and Kelly Westlund with UW Madison
Extension will be present to share work product to date and options on how to
proceed in the future.
Attached please find a listing of 13 ideas. The goal is to throw ideas out and get
feedback before we further refine.
Item 7: Discussion regarding the Cinnaire Housing Development Agreement in
Washburn. We were not funded this past year. Our current Development
Agreement specifies that the Developer or County has the right to terminate the
agreement by Aug 31 if we don't provide evidence of a tax credit award by July 31.
I think it is in the county’s interest to continue with Cinnaire for another round of
tax credit application. At the same time Cinnaire has discussed modifying the
design of the development. We are anticipating an updated agreement in the
days ahead and will make them available to the committee once received.
There is also extensive discussion at the state level about additional housing
funds.
Item 8: We would like to recommend an updated Capital Asset Capitalization
Policy. Our current policy has a capitalization level of $500. We are discussing an
updated level of $5000 as suggested by GFOA. The county would continue to tag
all assets over $500 they would not be depreciated however unless over $5000.
This policy also includes provisions for selling of county property at public sale,
“junking” of assets (old furniture with no value and old electronics). that sets the
asset level for depreciation at $5000 and provides guidance on sale of county
assets and junking of assets with no bids
Item 9. Attached is an updated assigned balances resolution as it relates to fund
balances. This is a listing of planned or proposed capital projects over the next
several years that we want to dedicate funds for. Our last resolution was in 2021.
Our auditors record updated resolutions and use it for calculating available and
assigned balances.
Item 10. Attached is a draft resolution regarding the Fish Creek Park and Ride.
This unofficial park and ride is unimproved, no paving and no lighting. The County
maintains this. It is heavily used with 10-20 cars using the lot daily. We would like
to propose to the DOT that they consider paving this lot. It doesn’t meet their
standard specifications, which appears to be the reason for their formal
endorsement and improvements. If approved I would recommend we ask the
Highway Committee to review and approve before sending onto the County
Board.
Item 11. Attached is a draft 911 Consolidation Resolution. Bayfield County was
notified that the funding in the amount of $700,000 would be awarded to the
project provided 10 conditions were met. The conditions are reasonable, most
are already in place, and a few we have a bit of work to do on. The attached draft
resolution answers those questions and confirms our intentions. We would
propose a final resolution to both counties for signature. Time is of the essence as
the State requests a response within 30 days of award (before fiscal year ends).
Our next Board meeting in June 27 which meets this deadline. Ashland has
confirmed they can meet this timeline also.
Item 12:
• Financials:
o End of May is 41% through the year, overall expenditures are at 40%.
o General Fund
▪ revenues are at 46%, down $600k from last year
▪ expenditures are at 47%, $9.3million, up $2 million from 2022
o Human Services:
▪ Revenues up, at $3.2 million up $570k from 2022
▪ Expenditures at 31%, at $1.6, up $80k from last year.
o Highway
▪ Revenues at 64%, up $1.5 million from 2022.
▪ Expenditures at $1.980, 20%, up 60K from 2022.
• Treasurer’s Report, $28.12, DOWN $520k from last year and down $1.1
million from last month
• ARPA programs, all proceeding
• Comprehensive planning, a six-month extension was provided by Coastal
Management
• Northern Lights Study Committee had first meeting on Monday.
• Opioid Survey: Sara Wartman is preparing an update.
• We anticipate having two State Secretaries, Veterans Affairs and
Department of Administration at our July 25, 2023, meeting. We are
thinking about a picnic our front.

of the cost. Xcel offers program credits to offset the additional 20%. Bayfield County
would be the applicant and would administer the grant, with grant funds to pay the

for structural improvements and maintenance over a designated period of time. Mark
Ehlers, Treasurer of Northern Lights Services, reports that there are a number of revenues
outstanding. If they are not received this Fall, the county may need to be asked for

responsible for search and rescue efforts. Ashland and Bayfield Counties could work
together to develop a CERT team. Nearly 500 search and rescue situations have occurred
over the . Initial proposal is to include vetted team members, already trained,
approximately 60-65 persons, with eventual expansion to include interested civilians.
Funding to be provided through grants, fundraising and donations. Sub-teams within the
CERT may include: water, mounted posse, drone, K9, ground search etc. CERT requires
a local government sponsor for FEMA.

14 Opportunities for Bayfield County to Invest in Housing Solutions
1. Make an Investment in the ground-floor development of the Bay Area Community
Land Trust.
a. What is it?
i. A Housing Community Land Trust is a nonprofit, community-based
organization with the goal of preserving long-term housing affordability.
CLTs seek to remove land from the speculative real estate market
permanently, helping to stabilize home prices for moderate-income
households.
ii. We are IN PROCESS in building a CLT now, as part of the WHEDA
Pilot program.
iii. CLT may sell a home, but retain ownership of the land it sits upon through
a long-term ground lease. By NOT including the value of the land in the
sale of the structures upon it, the house can be sold for a more affordable
price.
iv. A CLT can acquire land or homes through purchase or donation, from
public or private entities.
v. Resale of CLT properties is governed by a resale formula, which is
intended to allow residents to capture some of their home’s appreciated
equity while maintaining affordability for new homebuyers in perpetuity.
vi. There are currently about 300 Housing CLT’s across the country,
including a handful in WI. We are modeling our local CLT on others within
Wisconsin.
vii. As the housing crisis has bloomed in rural America, CLT’s have emerged
as a critical piece of organizational infrastructure to preserve long
term affordability to homes in particularly desirable areas.

$1.5 million investment into a revolving loan fund used for the purpose
CLT. We are looking for $750k in match funding to unlock this 1.5million
from WHEDA, which would create a $2.25 RLF to support the CLT)
ii. $50k-$500k Rural Community Development initial matching grant that
could support staff and other hard costs associated with the buildout of
this program
2. Update county zoning ordinances to support multi-unit, higher density housing

land
3. Homes built on County land and sold on private market mean
increased overall property valuation
4. County has access to funding sources that private developers
don’t
5. Opportunity for workforce development/job training, partnership
with tribes, technical colleges, and local employers
ii. Who will it serve?

be made up by some sort of subsidy. Based on the increased cost of
construction and lack of available grants, there are gaps that may require
hard money.
b. Who will it serve?
i. County-based gap financing would target developers developing parcels
for residents making less than 120% median income.
c. How will it benefit the county?
i. Increase building brings increased valuation
ii. Increase housing opportunities across the spectrum of income
d. How soon might we see results?
i. This could be used to make up the gap in the LIHTC development as
soon as 2024.
e. Range of investment :
i. $1-5million per 50-unit development
11. Increase awareness and use of funding for home repair through programs
administered by Northwest Regional Planning Commission.
a. What is it?
i. Citizen outreach to increase participation in an existing program. Could
include mailings, door-to-door outreach, public info sessions.
b. Who will it serve?
i. Income qualified homeowners with deferred home maintenance
c. How will it benefit the county?

e. Range of investment:
i. $3000-$6000
12. Use County resources to create shovel-ready sites for development.
a. What is it?
i. Identify ideal locations for new housing development and use County
funds to do site prep. Could also be used for demolition purposes of
existing blighted structures. Lower the cost of entry for developers and
then recover the County’s investment as each new house sells.
1. Washington County recovers $20,000 of their site prep investment
with each sale of a NextGen home.
2. Could be helpful in building out renewable energy infrastructure,
which also opens a new avenue for potential funding.
b. Who will it serve?
i. Developers, homebuyers
c. How will it benefit the county?
i. Increase housing stock, mitigate blighted properties, increase valuation.
Opportunity to consider broader long-term fiscal impact to County - will
the location be expensive to serve in terms of emergency response, road
maintenance, or other services?
d. How soon might we see results?
i. 12-24 months
e. Range of investment:
i. $100k-$250k/per year, but recover funds at time of sale and via increased
valuation
13. Offer parcels at below-market rates to anyone who wants to build housing.
a. What is it?
i. Reduce the price of parcels owned by the County to reduce overall cost of
development. Include an occupancy deadline, define “dwelling”
parameters, limit options for future short-term rentals. The new tax
revenues on an improved lot previously owned by the County will
eventually make up for the reduced sale price.
b. Who will it serve?
i. Residents, developers
c. How will it benefit the county?
i. Betterment of housing conditions, increased property values
d. How soon might we see results?
i. 24-36 months
e. Range of investment:
i. Minimal, given recent court decision that profits from foreclosure
properties must be returned to the previous owner. If selling
non-foreclosure parcels, depends on the valuation.
14. Consider linkage fees for non-housing development.
a. What is it?
i. If a large new commercial development is coming to the County, consider
the needs related to workforce housing. Some communities require a
commensurate number of housing units to be built as part of the overall
agreement, others charge a percentage of the project cost (the linkage
fee), which goes into a County affordable housing fund.
ii. Counties can also require a percentage of every housing development be
carved out as affordable housing, or that developers contribute to an
affordable housing fund as part of the development fee.
iii. The reverse could work, too - Give reduced permit fees or “density
credits” and expedited process to developers who dedicate a percentage
of their project to affordable housing.
b. Who will it serve?
i. Residents making less than 120% median income in prime areas
ii. Businesses of all sizes in areas in desperate need of workers
c. How will it benefit the county?
i. Betterment of housing conditions, increased property values
d. How soon might we see results?
i. 12-24 months
e. Range of investment:
i. None, just the policy change

Bayfield County
Capital Asset Capitalization Policy
Bayfield County holds certain capital assets which include land, buildings, building improvements,
vehicles, machinery, equipment, furniture, appliances, infrastructure, and all other tangible and
intangible assets that are used in operations.
These assets may be accounted for at historical cost or estimated historical cost in accordance with
standards established by the State of Wisconsin and the Governmental Accounting Standards Board
(GASB).
Procedures
Capital Assets are to be capitalized only if they have estimated useful lives of at least four (4) years
following the date of acquisition.
Capital asset value thresholds for capitalization are to be applied to individual capital assets rather than
to a group of similar capital assets.
Capital assets to be capitalized must have an initial value of $5,000 or more. This is the capitalization
threshold for reporting purposes, as defined in GASB No 34. Donated capital assets are recorded at their
estimated acquisition value at the date of donation.
Capital Assets having values of $500 to $5,000 are to be controlled for insurance and inventory
reporting purposes. However, these capital assets will not be capitalized. These capital assets will be
reported to the Bookkeeper and ‘tagged’.
Repair and maintenance costs are expenditures that keep the property in ordinary efficient operating
condition. The cost of the repair does not add to the value or prolong the life of the asset. All repair and
maintenance costs to capital assets are to be treated as an annual operating expense and charged to the
appropriate department or fund.
Improvements are expenditures for additions, alterations, and renovations that appreciably prolong the
life of the asset, materially increase its value, or adapt it to a different use. Improvement costs of $5,000
or more to individual capital assets are to be capitalized.
Depreciation shall be computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the
capital asset, except vehicles. Fleet vehicles shall depreciate at 100,000 miles. Squad vehicles shall
depreciate at 120,000 miles. In recognition of recordkeeping constraints that include manpower and
computer software limitations, assets are to be depreciated during their initial year of ownership in
accordance with the following practice:
• Date purchased.
• No depreciation for disposed assets if the asset has already been fully depreciated.
The following table identifying classes of capital assets, their expected useful lives in years, and expected
salvage values is to be used for depreciation and scheduling of asset replacement purposes. All assets
purchased prior to the implementation of this policy shall continue to depreciate according to past
practices.
Classification Description Expected Useful Lives
Land Improvements 15 years
Buildings 50 years
Machinery and Equipment 10 years
Office equipment 5 years
Furniture and Fixtures 10 years
Intangibles 25 years, GASB 96
Depreciation on highway capital assets is computed using the straight-line method of the estimated
useful lives as recommended by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation.
Existing capital assets less than the $5,000 capitalization threshold shall be removed from the capital
asset schedule when fully depreciated. Capital assets originally valued at $5,000 or more that are fully
depreciated shall continue to be held on the capital asset schedule until they are sold or otherwise
retired.
Any equipment and other capital expenditures purchased with federal funds must follow the Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) §200.313 and § 200.439.
Disposal
Upon approval of the County Administrator, capital assets may be sold at public auction or through a
sealed bid process, traded, or junked. The County Administrator shall reserve the right to accept or
reject any and all offers if they do not equal or exceed the booked value (if not depreciated) or published
prices.
Surplus property and materials that have a value of less than $2500 and are unusable, unsellable or
beyond repair may be junked under the following approvals: $500 or less: Maintenance Department
Head for furniture/equipment and IT Department head for electronics. $501-$2500 County
Administrator approval. All other property valued at greater than $2500 require Executive Committee
approval.
No disposed surplus property and material shall be given to or salvaged by County officials, employees,
or members of the public.
Seized property held by the Sheriff’s office shall be handled and disposed of in accordance with
applicable, Federal, and State requirements.

16.2 Volunteer Policy:
16.1.1 Purpose:
Bayfield County’s volunteer program is designed to encourage community participation
and enhance County programs and services. The County’s volunteer program provides
a wide range of expertise, skills, and support of County programs as well as an
opportunity for residents to participate in making a difference in the community. This
policy is intended to help provide an overview of the volunteer program and provide
information necessary to help make volunteering for Bayfield County a positive
experience.
16.1.2 SCOPE
This policy applies to all Bayfield County volunteers as defined in section 3.
16.1.3 DEFINITON OF BAYFIELD COUNTY VOLUNTEER

2. Bayfield County has control and supervisory responsibility over the
manner and the result of the services rendered AND;
3. The volunteer receives no remuneration for such services other than
reimbursement for incidental expenses that are prior-authorized by the
county AND;
4. The volunteer does not belong to any of the following categories:
i. The individual is sponsored by a separate agency and provides
services through that sponsoring agency. Example: Red Cross
volunteers.
ii. The individual is acting as a registered Disaster Service Worker
Volunteer. Example: Registered DSW filing sandbags in

Volunteers will be recruited by Bayfield County on a proactive basis, with the
intent of broadening and expanding volunteer involvement in the community.
Volunteers shall be recruited by Bayfield County consistent with county
policies, and without regard to sex (including gender), race, religion, color,
national origin, ancestry, medical condition, age, marital status, pregnancy,
sexual orientation, and/or disability.
b. APPLICATION, BACKGROUND CHECK, AND SELECTION PROCESS
Potential volunteers will complete a written application form provided by
Human Resources and available on the County Website at
www.bayfieldcounty.wi.gov/jobs. All general volunteers or any volunteers
who may interact unsupervised with children or who may have access to
confidential information for which criminal clearance is needed will be subject
to a criminal history background check through the Wisconsin Department of
Justice before performing services for the county. The application and
background check process will comply with the county’s Equal Employment
Opportunity Policy and Background Check Policy.
c. ORIENTATION AND TRAINING
Volunteers will be provided on-the-job orientation and training specific to the
assignment and safety concerns. Orientation and training will include
educating the volunteer about various county policies that apply to his or her
position. Orientation will include an orientation video including an overview of
relevant policies including: Discrimination, Harassment, and Retaliation,
Workplace Violence, Alcohol and Drug policy, Smoking policy, Confidentiality
policy, Computer Use policy and the Vehicle Use policy (if appropriate). Each
volunteer is expected to adhere to the county’s policies. As appropriate,
training may also be provided pertaining to the Health Information Portability
and Accountability Act (HIPAA) or other similar laws.
d. SUPERVISION OF VOLUNTEERS
Each volunteer must have a clearly identified supervisor who is responsible
for direct oversight of that volunteer.
e. DRIVING
a. Volunteers are only authorized to operate a county vehicle or drive a
personal vehicle to perform county business if driving is necessary to
perform an essential duty of the volunteer’s position. Volunteers are
required to comply with the Wisconsin vehicle code and county vehicle
use policy at all times.
b. A volunteer assigned to operate a Bayfield County owned vehicle or
perform volunteer services with their private vehicle must have a valid
driver license with a classification consistent with the type of vehicle to
be driven. No volunteer may operate a Bayfield County owned vehicle

the volunteer of safe work practices as required for employees.

services.

Departments utilizing volunteers shall provide the Human Resources Office
with copies of all required documents prior to allowing volunteers to perform
services. Required documents include: Volunteer Application, Volunteer
Release, Confidentiality and Waiver of Liability Form, Driver License and
vehicle insurance documentation (if applicable). All records regarding
volunteer service shall be maintained for a duration that is in accordance with
existing Bayfield County record retention policies.
j. GIFTS

public.

interest they may have, where such interest might be construed by a
reasonable person as being in real, potential, or apparent conflict with their
services for the county.
l. RELEASE FROM SERVICE

be released from service without notice or cause. A department’s release of a
volunteer from county service will comply with the county’s Equal Opportunity
Policy and Workplace Discrimination, Harassment and Retaliation policy.
