NEW BUSINESS
• Discussion Regarding Pistol Shooting in Muskego
Alderperson Kubacki stated there are few people present from local gun ranges during the last
meeting. They stated a 9mm pistol could shoot 1,500 yards. The properties in question are much
smaller distance than what a bullet can travel. The Mayor stated about six properties would be
impacted. The Common Council agreed to table the item.
Discussion of Common Council Future Goals
Mayor Petfalski asked if there were any topics to add for future agenda items regarding goals in
the next 18 months. He mentioned he would like input and discussion regarding the old Police
Department. Currently the maintenance expenses for upkeep is about $50,000/year. Another
option could be to renovate the building to develop a Community Center with an approximate cost
of $5,000,000 with a continued expense to maintain the building. The consensus was to reach out
to the community to get an understanding of the what they would like to see. Mayor Petfalski
stated he will add this to a future agenda item.
COMMUNICATIONS AND MISCELLANEOUS BUSINESS AS AUTHORIZED BY LAW
Mayor Petfalski stated boat launches are a topic which will be addressed as a future agenda item as
well as allowing golf carts/ATVs to be able to travel on 30 mph roads and term length of Alderpersons
to possibly reduce how often elections are held in Muskego to save in those costs. He also mentioned
the need to address the roads in Muskego is important and has had discussions at the State level
regarding funding to the municipalities.
