Attached is a Digital Navigator Grant budget amendment. This is a two-year grant. More expenditures are being paid in 2025 than anticipated due to rule changes. The two main contractors are Norvado (providing housing authority internet) and NWWIB (Mari Kay Nabozny) providing digital navigator staffing. Item 5. Bayfield County Criminal Justice received a grant for a State Intervention Training program. Revenues balance with Expenditures. Item 6: Below are seven discussion topics that may require additional study and discussion, several of these are topics from the WCA conference. Staff is prepared for a general introduction with the potential for more detailed discussion in the months ahead. A. At the WCA Conference a recommendation to Board Supervisors to evaluate existing Board Rules came up. Attached are Bayfield County’s current Board rules (link below and in packet). Jan Lee shared WCA Counsel’s list of 10 important rules all Counties should address as shown below. Lynn Divine has recommended starting with a comprehensive review of the WCA Rules summary, included in the packet. CURRENT BAYFIELD COUNTY BOARD RULES LINK: https://bayfieldcounty.wi.gov/DocumentCenter/View/1801/Title-2---Chapter-2?bidId= This is a topic that may require multiple months of discussion and review. WCA is willing to provide assistance as well. B. The term “self organized counties” refers to counties that have adopted an ordinance invoking state authority given in statutes 59.10(1). The authority allows counties to address three topics: 1. Allowance for staggered terms of supervisors. 2. More flexibility with Board compensation. 3. Filling vacancies in the office of county supervisor, adopting our own procedures. Here is a link to an educational document. A copy is in the packet also. https://localgovernment.extension.wisc.edu/files/2021/02/Fact-Sheet-8_-Self-Organized- Counties.pdf This is a topic that may require additional time to discuss and review. WCA is willing to provide assistance as well. C. The Tourism Committee is considering naming a building after a donor. The County does not have a policy regarding this. Attached are two county policy examples. Initial questions might be: a. Does the county want to establish a countywide naming policy? b. Should this be for buildings only or other county infrastructure as well? c. Should both individuals and businesses be considered? d. If a business is considered, how do we set contribution amounts? Would a service contribution alone qualify or should some cash contribution be required as well? e. What is the term of the naming period? We anticipate having this discussion over several meetings but wanted to share some basic information to get the conversation started. This topic is prompted by a business inquiring about making a contribution of service in exchange for naming rights at the county fairgrounds. D. Human Services has a risk reserve budget in the amount of $635,000 today. This is used to pay major, state-mandated, unplanned expenses, such as out-of-home placements. As fees for these services increase, there is concern that our current balances may be insufficient. The Human Services Committee recently discussed this. Discussion is ongoing and Executive Committee involvement requested. E. Updates to the County Procurement policy are needed to comply with state and federal rules. Attached is a marked up copy of the policy. F. Bayfield and Ashland Counties are considering an application for a State Innovation Grant for our joint dispatch project and for a possible Countywide EMS initiative. Applications are due by March of 2026. We are investigating options under the State’s new terms and conditions. Key issues are a 3-5 year agreement, an agreement after Nov 2024 and cost limit provisions. G. The budget for Animal Control is significantly ($28k) over budget due to horse expenses in 2025. We anticipate some additional expenses in the months ahead. We will have a request for a budget amendment at the next meeting. I wanted the Committee to be aware of additional expenses. Item 7. Reports summary a. Financial Report: 1. General Fund Rev and Exp: 72% / 66%, balance up $800k from 2024. 2. Human Service Rev and Exp: 61% and 63%, balance down $950k from 2024 3. Highway Rev and Expense: 71% and 40%: balance up $2.2 million 4. County Wide / All Funds, Revenue and Expenses: 72%/61%, balance up $3.3 million b. Treasurer report shows the monthly balance up $1.2 million from this time last year. c. The State Legislature continues to update the Judicial Privacy Policy, Act 235. The act is implemented once a request is made. As of this date Bayfield County has not had any updates. Once final state review is completed that county will propose its policy. d. Bayfield and Ashland Counties were notified of an Intergovernmental Award by the Policy Forum for the Joint Dispatch project. Very exciting. 1 Minutes of the Bayfield County Executive Committee Meeting 4:00pm, September 24, 2025 Meeting was held Remotely through Microsoft Teams and in person in the Bayfield County Board Room, Washburn, WI Members Present: Dennis Pocernich (4:30), Mary Dougherty, Fred Strand, Jan Lee, Marty Milanowski, Madelaine Rekemeyer Excused: Others Present: Mark Abeles-Allison-County Administrator, Kristine Kavajecz-Human Resources Director, Charly Ray, Steve Sandstrom, Jason Bodine-Forest Administrator, Jeff Holte, Kim Mattson-Finance Director, Ryan VanLanduyt-Energy Specialist Called to order at 4:00p.m. by Vice-Chairperson Strand Motion Milanowski, Lee to approve minutes of the September 16, 2025 Executive Committee meeting. Motion Carried (5-0) Public Comment: None Dougherty arrived at this time and assumed oversight of the meeting. Resolution and Ordinance Recommendations to Full Board Updated Animal Control Ordinance: Abeles-Allison reported that the updated ordinance has been reviewed by Corporation Counsel and has been recommended. Motion Strand, Milanowski to forward Ch 1, Regulation of Animals updated ordinance to full county board as proposed with recommendation for approval. Motion Carried (5-0). Energy Project Budget Amendment Resolution: The Towns and County Department Of Energy is being expedited. The 2025 budget is proposed to be amended in the amount of $1.67 million. 80% is covered by the Feds, towns and Xcel are covering 20% on their projects. County is covering 20% on our projects. All municipal and county out of pocket will be covered through the federal Direct Pay reimbursement program in 2027. The county has three project bid groups underway. Motion Milanowksi, Lee to forward the Energy Project Budget Amendment Resolution as presented to the full county board with recommendation for approval. Motion Carried (5-0) Updated HUD Grant and Ondossagon School Budget Amendment Resolution: The HUD grant included $100,000 in county admin / housing related expenses. The owners of the old 2 Ondossagon School (Retos) together with the Town of Barksdale and Northwest Regional Planning, C&S design and the County are working on the first phase, a WEDC site assessment grant. The grant requires a match. The resolution authorizes $30k of the $100k in HUD funds towards this effort. Abeles-Allison reported that no action is necessary on this item at this time. Resolution Supporting Bayfield County Infrastructure and Community Development Landmark Restoration Projects for State of Wisconsin: Motion Lee, Milanowski to forward the resolution supporting Bayfield County’s Infrastructure and Community Development Landmark Restoration Projects for the State of Wisconsin to the full county board with recommendation for approval. Motion Carried (5-0) Pocernich joined the meeting at this time. Budget Changes/Notes Spreadsheet: Mattson reported that levy funds must be budgeted in the General (100) Fund. For this reason, levy in the proposed budget for specific projects in the Capital Improvement (430) Fund will need to be budgeted in the 100 fund and then be transferred to the 430 fund. Department Presentations: a. Forestry / Carbon PAGE 168 / 247: Bodine presented information about the status of the carbon program. No revenues have been budgeted and there is not enough data/experience to accurately budget for this. It is anticipated that this will be a budget item in 2027 going forward. b. Capital Improvements: PAGE 199: Abeles-Allison explained that this fund is used for one-time purchases and projects, keeping only ongoing operating expenses within actual department operating budgets. A list of the items included in the proposed budget was reviewed. Pocernich commented that he is concerned that the proposed expenditures are 75% higher than 2025 and that at least $1 million should be cut. Committee members noted that several of the projects in the proposed budget will have grant funding to offset at least a portion of the expenses. Total expenditures are proposed at about $3million. $800,000 is short-term borrowing for Northern Lights and Courthouse maintenance projects. $1million is proposed to be transferred from the general fund and $543,000 of CIP fund balances will also be applied. Grants provide about $700,000 of revenue to offset the grant expenses. Comment was shared that maintaining a 25% undesignated fund balance should be maintained. The budget, as proposed would reduce the fund balance to 21%. The committee could eliminate some expenses utilizing fund balance or could increase the mill rate to pay for the proposed projects/purchases. The committee discussed the current assigned fund balances and if any of the assigned fund balances should be modified or eliminated to maintain a 25% unassigned fund balance. Discussed reducing Compensated balances to $400,000 (reduce by $350,000). If the mill rate were kept the same as 2025, it would increase the short term borrow to $6.55 million and reduce the fund balance utilization by $200,000. This would also maintain the minimum 25% in the unassigned balances. The committee discussed modifications to the Capital Improvement budget: CheqBuilt allocation modified to $150,000. Remove the floor 3 strip/clean/wax and include as a regular operating expense. Postpone the parking lot chipseal for 1 year. Postpone the zero-turn lawnmower for 1 year. Remove $15k for replacement snowmobile for Sheriff’s Office Remove $10,000 dump trailer for Tourism. Remove $600 for UW Shed repair. Allocate $15k to design Zoning offices (reduced from $105k). Remove $12,000 Forestry ATV. Reduce park building infrastructure evaluation to $10k (was $20k). Add $50k of Revenue for EndPoint Protection (anticipating grant funding). Remove $67,000 for computer software in Human Services. Abeles-Allison reviewed the list of Northern Lights CIP items. Dougherty stated that Northern Lights is contributing $150k toward CIP items, which they have not been able to do in the past. Add court office improvements back in for $44,070. Add $1.1 million for ERP, using short term borrowing for the purchase. Reduce assigned fund balance for Boilers by $650,000. c. Energy Project: PAGE 264. This item not discussed d. County Board: PAGE 78. This item not discussed e. Agency Requests: PAGE 280 f. Fund Balance: PAGE 26 Discussed earlier in the meeting. Short-Term Borrow Amounts: County Board will need to take action on short-term borrowing at the September 30th meeting. $6.55 million is proposed to include Highway Projects, Courthouse Dome, Northern Lights Capital Improvements, and ERP system. Motion Lee, Rekemeyer to recommend $6.55 million in short term borrowing to the full county board with recommendation for approval. Motion Carried (6-0) Committee was asked if they would like to discuss any other topics related to the 2026 budget. Abeles-Allison stated that the budget does include $50,000 for Bayfield County Economic Development Corporation. The committee had discussion about the results coming from BCEDC and that future funding will be dependent upon continued results. Changes Spreadsheet: The spreadsheet summarizing the changes discussed during the meeting was reviewed. 2026 Budget Expenditures and Levy and Recommendation to the Full Board: Motion Milanowski, Rekemeyer to forward the proposed 2026 budget and levy to the full county board with the changes reviewed on the budget changes spreadsheet. Motion Carried (6-0) No additional meetings will be needed. Meeting adjourned at 6:30 pm.

The County Board further recognizes County citizens’ rightful expectation that the financial resources provided the County through tax levy and other sources be invested in a wise and deliberate matter. Therefore, in recognition of these principles, the County Board hereby adopts the following County Board Rules (referred to as “Board Rules” or “Rules”) in order to promote orderly and efficient rules of governance for the County Board and all county-related governmental bodies. 1.02 Interpretation These Board Rules are not intended to, and shall not, supersede any requirements or provisions in the Wisconsin Statutes.

DRAFT BAYFIELD COUNTY PROCUREMENT POLICY Updated and approved, April 20, 2021 by the Bayfield County Board of Supervisors, Revised Oct xx 7, 2025 Section 1: Purchasing General The purpose of this policy is to require all Bayfield County officials and employees to adhere to purchasing procedures in a manner that builds public confidence and preserves the integrity of an open, fair, transparent, and competitive procurement process conducted under strict ethical guidelines. Our specific goal is to ensure effective and efficient procurement of goods and services consistent with quality and delivery needs at the lowest cost for the best value for the taxpayers of Bayfield County. Applicable Laws, Codes, and Ordinances To achieve our goals, we maintain strict compliance with all federal, state, and local laws. Purchasing authority is granted by sections 59.52(9) and 66.0131 of the Wisconsin Statutes and by Bayfield County Ordinance Title 3, Chapter 1 and OMB Standards 2 CFR 200. Procurement Process Offices and Departments shall use a bidding process in purchasing unless otherwise provided in this policy and even if not required are encouraged to do so. Awards shall be made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. In determining the lowest responsible bidder, the purchasing agent may consider cost of operation over the life of the item. When comparing bids or quotes, the following elements shall be considered: price, conformity with original specifications, warranty, delivery date (if specified), and freight charges. Upon reviewing the bid results, the purchasing agent may elect to solicit additional bids. Department Heads and Elected Officials and the County Administrator will be the agents of record for purchasing and shall ensure the requirements for competitive bidding have been met. Except as permitted by the sole source purchase provisions of this policy, all purchasing agents shall follow the procedures as established by the County policy based on the amount of the purchase. No purchase of a single good or commodity at the same general time may be divided into separate purchases to qualify for a lower threshold of approval. Bayfield County will not contract with vendors debarred by federal, state, or local governments. All employees with purchasing authority must file an annual conflict-of-interest disclosure. Procurement Provisions: Identify the need and estimated cost. All procurements must be budgeted. A. Bids or Price Quotations. The following dollar amounts shall be followed in determining the process to be used in obtaining bids and price quotations: 1. $0.00-$310,000.00-no price quotes are required 2. $310,000.01-$150,000.00 -Small purchases above $10,000 shall be Rreviewed by the Department Head/Elected Official and County Administrator to determine if a price quote or bids is required. 3. Over $150,000-sealed bids B. Approval. 1. Up to $1,500 Authorized Employees 2. Up to $50,000 Department Heads 3. Over $50,000 Administrator 4. Over $200,000 Board C. Exception: a.

Project and purchases on behalf of the Children’s Long-term Services (CLTS) and Children’s Community Options Program (CCOP) are exempt from this procurement process. Under these programs Human Services staff will solicit proposals and work to secure at least two estimates. Low estimates should receive due consideration however DHS has discretion on how to award a project based on the best interest of the family. Competitive bids are not required.

Written justification report must be filed within 30 days of any emergency purchase for transparancytransparency. d. Emergency purchases above $100,000 must be ratified by the County Board at the next regular meeting. D. State Contract Purchases. An Elected Official or Department Head may use State of Wisconsin for purchasing any products or services that are available to local governments. By using this method of purchase, the requirement of bidding items will be exempted due to the state or national agency having already bid the item. Further, the State contract amount may be used as price comparisons for the competitive bidding requirements for identical items. E. Federal Grant Procurement Guidelines. When using federal funds and grants, federal procurement guidelines are to be followed in some cases overruling state and local procurement guidelines. Uniform guidance when using federal funds and grants for procurement are as follows for obtaining bids and price quotations: 1. $0.00 to $3,000 10,000-Micro purchase, no price quotes are required. 2. $3,000.01 to $150,000.00 250,000 – Small purchase, purchases above $10,000 shall be reviewed by the Department Head/Elected Official and County Administrator to determine if a price quote or bid is required. 3. $1250,000.01 and over-Large Purchase, requires sealed bids. No employee, officer, or agent may participate in the selection, award, or administration of a contract supported by a Federal award if he or she has a real or apparent conflict of interest. Such a conflict of interest would arise when the employee, officer, or agent, any member of his or her immediate family, his or her partner, or an organization which employs or is about to employ any of the parties indicated herein, has a financial or other interest in or a tangible personal benefit from a firm considered for a contract. The standards of conduct must provide for disciplinary actions to be applied for violations of such standards by officers, employees, or agents of the non-Federal entity. Disciplinary process and procedures are found in the Bayfield County Personnel Manual, Section 4.3. F. Sole Source (Non-Competitive Proposals).
