Commissioner Kubacki made a motion to not charge subdivision outlots in the Lake
District. Commissioner Kapusta seconded.
Discussion:
Chairman Chiaverotti stated there was a request to not charge the Lake District fees for
subdivision outlots. Director Mueller estimated that the total dollar amount that would not be
collected is $1,500.00. This may or may not be passed on to the other riparian owners. Ms.
Chiaverotti noted that the fee is often paid by a Homeowner’s Association; however, some

go defunct in time, which makes collection problematic. She stated the amounts are
minimal and not charging the outlots will be more effective for all parties involved. Mr. Bill
Evers of Stonebridge Way was present. He acknowledged that he made the request. Mr.
Evers stated that the Big Muskego Lake District Deputy Commissioners recommended that
subdivision outlots would not be charged the fee at the last meeting.
Motion passed 6 in favor and Commissioner Borgman voting no.
