If there is no relevant history, N/A should be entered in this space. The Shorewood Men’s Club Chicken Bar-B-Q is a long-standing community event. The Bar-B-Q started in 1971 as a way for the Men’s Club to raise the funds needed to support community groups. This year, 2019, marks their 48th annual event which is now one of the largest one-day social events in Shorewood.
1. May 2018 – Village Board approved a Temporary Class “B”/ “Class B” Liquor License for Shorewood Men’s Club Chicken BBQ.

VILLAGE OF SHOREWOOD REPORTS AND PRESENTATIONS TO VILLAGE BOARD Agenda Item: Consider vendor for EDI environmental scan and strategic plan. Date: April 4, 2022 Presenter: Rebecca Ewald, Village Manager Department: Village Manager’s Office History – Please include a timeline of historical relevant events related to this agenda item. This may include previous Village Board action, policies, planning documents, etc. If able, hyperlink to previous agenda packets (include page number) to reference information. If there is no relevant history, N/A should be entered in this space.
1. July 6, 2020 - Sam Coleman provided recommendations for future EDI work, see pg. 119 of packet.
2. November 15, 2021 - the 2022 budget includes $50,000 for an Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) strategic plan.
3. December 20, 2021 – the Village Board agreed to proceed with an environmental scan in preparation for an EDI strategic plan, see pg. 225 of packet.
4. January 18, 2022 – the Village Board approved an RFP for environmental scan and strategic plan, anticipating that the work would span across 2022 and 2023.
___________________________________________________________________________________ Agenda Item Discussion – Please provide a summary of the agenda item along with bullet points highlighting the main items and key issues to be discussed. The proposal review team represented by Human Relations Commission – McKenzie Edmonds, Tr. Moore Baldauff and the Village Manager Ewald reviewed thirteen (13) proposals and interviewed three (3) companies: Green Bicycle Company, Kairo Communications and Wisconsin Institute for Public Policy and Service (WIPPS). Some proposals provided services virtually only, others with a few in person meetings, some with most meetings in person. It was the decision of the review team that meeting in person as much as possible was a high priority.
The review panel is recommending Kairo Communications to perform both environmental scan and strategic plan due to their inductive research approach of utilizing both quantitative and qualitative data to determine the research themes. The environmental scan will answer the questions below providing a better understanding of not only where we are now, but why we are here now:
- Where are we now? - Where are we going? - Where do we want to be? - How do we get there? - How did we get there?
Qualitative methods such as interviews, surveys, focus groups and observations will be used to obtain the primary data and to chart the evolution of Shorewood’s EDI work. Observations of meetings will also provide insight to review Shorewood leadership on the Board, staff and Committees. Secondary data will be obtained through quantitative methods such as surveys, census data and work of other municipalities and policy analysis tools used by the Government Alliance of Racial Equity (GARE) and National League of Cities (NLC). Several analytical methods will be utilized to ensure quality analysis: Thematic, Content, Discourse and Root Cause. At no additional cost, Kairo has also recommended that
all members of the EDI committee be interviewed for 45 minutes individually to further refine the scope, understanding of team member perspectives.
Kairo will then facilitate creation of a strategic plan by incorporating two critical actions: 1) utilizing the data and perspectives obtained during the environmental scan work to impact the development of the strategic plan, and 2) framing the strategic plan as an implementation plan rather than a planning document that may sit on a shelf. These two components will ensure the plan contains specific action items, identifies key goals, objectives, and indicators, contains a measurement process, and collects data that shows the level of progress achieved on an ongoing basis. Planning will be conducted in interviews with staff from specific departments, and other small group or one-on-one meetings. The of technology such as Mentimeter can be used as a tool to engage residents in providing their perspective.
Kairo Communications is currently developing the roadmap for equity for Milwaukee County. While Shorewood has adopted Milwaukee County’s Framework, Kairo communications demonstrated clear understanding between the unique differences of Shorewood and the remaining Milwaukee County region. Kairo Communications demonstrated clear understanding of Shorewood’s strong commitment to communicating our work. They were the only company that intentionally included communication planning into their proposal to ensure stakeholders had key talking points throughout their work on the project. One member of their team has 20 years of marketing, community outreach and community engagement experience to support their communication approach. Most of the team is local, and meetings anticipated to be in person or virtually if necessary and mutually agreed upon.

Fiscal Note - In 2022 the Village budgeted $50,000 (#400-1100-563-60) for the environmental scan. The strategic plan would similarly be budgeted for in 2023 in the amount of $20,000. Kairo’s proposal includes $50,000 for the environmental scan in 2022 and $20,000 for the strategic plan in 2023 if the Village retained their service for both projects.
Following vendor approval, a service agreement would be forthcoming and listed on the consent agenda for Village Board approval on April 18.

Transmittal Information Kairo Communications. 3838 N. Oakland Ave. Unit 171. Shorewood, WI. 53211. 414-807-3678 Contact: Dr. Deborah Blanks Kairo Communications and its research partners are committed to providing the appropriate personnel and materials to perform the scope of the services as defined. We understand the importance of the Village of Shorewood’s equity, diversity, and inclusion work. We will ensure that our research team consists of highly qualified personnel equipped with the resources necessary to provide excellent consulting services. We are confident that our work will result in an excellent environmental scan and strategic plan. At its October 2021 meeting, the Village of Shorewood Board of Trustees adopted a resolution that created a framework for confronting racial equity at a countywide level. At the meeting Trustee Wesley Warren said "I think we've come a long way in terms of making this kind of a top-of-mind issue for us. That's not to say we're anywhere near the conclusion or midpoint of the journey, the real hard work is making this actionable, and taking the next steps." The views expressed by Trustee Warren reflect the perspective of Kairo Communications regarding the equity, diversity, and inclusion work of the Village of Shorewood. Much work has been done in the areas of Education, Awareness, Training, and Policy…much work remains. We will build on the past work, by converting it into actionable items that generate quality outcomes. This work will positively impact the municipality, strengthen Shorewood’s role as a collaborative partner in the county, and improve the quality of life for Shorewood residents.
APPROACH Description of Services and Research Methods The Kairo Communications Research Team conducts inductive research which allows the data to determine research themes, rather than researchers predetermining the direction the research will take or/ looking for data to confirm our beliefs. We are committed to conducting inductive research and are aware we bring our own biases and assumptions to the table. Our research team challenges our biases and readily tests our assumptions, seeking clarification to assess whether our assumptions are valid and to ensure invalid assumptions do not negatively influence our research findings. While this may seem obvious, history teaches us how biases, and assumptions have been accepted as fact and used to justify maintenance of racist ideology and discriminatory actions in government. For instance, Charles Murray, author of Losing Ground and co-author of The Bell Curve used biased, misinformed research to argue that social inequality is caused by the genetic inferiority of the African American and Latino communities, women, and the poor. His research was widely accepted by mainstream society and influenced social welfare, affirmative action, and education policy. Our work plan is designed specifically for the Village of Shorewood, we build on quality work already completed. For example, in the Executive Summary of the Shorewood Vision 2025 Project, the author states that information was gathered to understand four questions. Our research team will utilize these four questions in different phases of our work:
1. Where are we now? (Environmental Scan) 2. Where are we going? (Environmental Scan)
2
3. Where do we want to be? (Strategic Implementation Plan) 4. How do we get there? (Strategic Implementation Plan)
While we consider these questions pertinent to our research, we will add this fifth question in our environmental scan. “How did we get there”? We answer this question through historical research, literature review, review of demographic data, media comments, and the review of past Board, committee and department reports. We will conduct historical research regarding Wisconsin and American history to identify key actions that impacted equity, diversity, and inclusion. We will incorporate the review of the Shorewood history contained in the EDI committee’s work into our historical research to understand how Shorewood’s history impacts current EDI work. This provides a lens through which to better understand not only “where we are now” but “why” we are here now. We will conduct a Root Cause Analysis to identify the historical actions that led to current issues.
Our literature review will focus on how government influences and is influenced by issues of equity, diversity, and inclusion. We will identify factors that serve as barriers/threats, opportunities, and strengths in municipal efforts to improve the community’s response to and ability to address these issues. The historical research, literature review, media documents, and demographic data establish a solid foundation on which we ground our research.
Kairo Communications and our partners engage in mixed method research also known as triangulation which uses several data collection methods to gather information for the study of one issue and then comparing and contrasting the different perspectives and data gathered from these multiple methods. This use of mixed methods facilitates an understanding of information from several perspectives, allows for collection of a variety of types of information, provides for comparing and contrasting the information and identifying whether a significant level of congruency exists between the data. Thus, the process of triangulation helps researchers identify the level of congruency between what documents tell us, what stakeholders say, and what history tells us.
We will use qualitative methods to collect primary data directly from main sources, such as, interviews, surveys, focus groups, and observations. An extensive list of groups to be interviewed which was included in the Request for Proposal ranged from Village leadership to students, residents, and entrepreneurs of color. We concur with this listing because research does not occur in a vacuum; municipal government does not operate in isolation but reflects the community it serves.
Because of the sensitive nature of this work, at times, we will intentionally match interviewers and interviewees to facilitate and encourage trust, openness, and to obtain a true, clear picture of the environment. We will also chart the evolution of EDI’s work that illustrates the actions taken not just by the EDI committee but all sectors of Shorewood to provide a comprehensive picture.
Observations of meetings will be invaluable in our gaining insight. For example, because Shorewood will soon lack any Village Board members of color, the issue of representation of diverse populations is of research interest. How does Shorewood leadership ensure effective consideration of issues that impact people of color without a representative voice on the Board? Is this issue also reflected in the demographics regarding leadership positions in the staff and/or committee structure?
We will also use secondary sources to gather data that has been collected by previous researchers or organizations including municipalities and other government organizations. The Village of Shorewood
3
has an excellent repository of Board, committee, and staff reports which provide valuable information. Also, secondary sources will provide access to historical research and literature reviews.
We will utilize quantitative methods to gather mathematical and numerical data collected through different tools including surveys and census data. Our research will include a review of the work of other municipalities. The Government Alliance of Racial Equity (GARE) and the National League of Cities (NLC) provide excellent resources for municipalities and publish information about the efforts many municipalities are engaged in regarding equity, diversity, and inclusion in their communities. We also will contact municipalities directly if needed. We will create policy analysis tools that combine elements of the tools used by GARE and NLC.
While the quality of data collection is crucial to this project, quality data analysis is crucial as well. We will utilize several analytical methods: Thematic, Content, Discourse, and Root Cause Analysis. Thematic Analysis will be used to examine our interview notes and other text to identify topics, ideas and patterns of communication that come up repeatedly. The interviews can provide depth of information which can be coded and placed into themes. Content Analysis will be used to examine our survey results to quantify the survey data. This data will also be categorized based on themes similar to our thematic analysis. This quantitative data can provide a broader view of the perspectives of individuals because surveys will be used with a larger group than the interviews will. Discourse Analysis will be used to analyze how language is used to convey opinions about EDI and marginalized communities. Thus, written communications, information conveyed verbally in interviews and meetings, and opinions expressed on social media provide a social context and allow us to identify the purposes and effects of written and spoken communication. This is helpful to assess whether the opinions expressed in social media, mainstream media, and meetings reflect support or opposition to the equity, diversity, and inclusion work the Village has undertaken.

Strategic Plan Development The Kairo Communications research team has experience developing strategic plans. We tend to conduct strategic plans in a non-traditional manner. While there is value in conducting a preliminary meeting with a group of key stakeholders, much of the planning can be conducted in interviews, meetings with staff from specific departments, and other small group or one-on-one meetings. The use of technology, such as Mentimeter can be used as a tool to engage residents in providing their perspectives and feedback. Kairo facilitates creation of a strategic plan by incorporating two critical actions: 1) Utilizing the data and perspectives obtained during the environmental scan work to impact the development of a strategic plan, and 2) Framing the strategic plan as an implementation plan rather than as a planning document that may sit on a shelf. This is accomplished by ensuring that the plan contains specific action items, identifies key goals, objectives, and indicators, contains a measurement process, and collects data that shows the level of progress achieved on an ongoing basis.

Shorewood’s Ongoing Investment in Meaningful EDI Work For more than five years, the Village of Shorewood has engaged in a multitude of actions undertaken by its Board, committees, and staff to increase equity, diversity, and inclusion in the Shorewood community. Shorewood’s approach has focused on a four-prong approach: education, awareness, training, and policy. The Village took a significant step in working with Milwaukee County and adopting its framework of education, awareness, training, and policy. The Shorewood Village Board has made a commitment to racial equity; its President, Ann McCollough McKaig, has made key recommendations that move racial equity forward and she serves on Milwaukee County’s Dismantling Barriers of Racism Committee. The Board’s support of the Village’s focus on equity, diversity, and inclusion is critical. Over the last five years, the Board has initiated or supported and approved many EDI requests that have moved the Village’s EDI work forward. Shorewood’s EDI Committee demonstrates the partnership between the Board, volunteers, and staff. This committee has shown great foresight to understand how the past impacts the present and future. It’s review of history elevates its understanding of how history impacts marginalized communities. This is important because it fosters an understanding of how institutional structures and systems perpetuate patterns of exclusion and inequities. The EDI Committee’s diversity plan is a document that our firm will use in our work for this contract. The Village is dependent on volunteers to participate on Boards, Commissions, and Committees; these individuals are critical in moving the Village’s EDI agenda. For example, the work of the Community Development Authority (CDA) regarding affordable housing is commendable and necessary. The Village demonstrated a willingness to listen to resident concerns and create policies and practices to address
8
those concerns. Specifically, the Transportation and Parking Policy included recommendations reflects that commitment to engage residents and obtain their feedback on critical community issues. The work of departments is critical as well. The Shorewood Police Department has set an example of how police departments can work effectively to engage in EDI work. The department has engaged in training that impacts how they interact with the public. The department has also participated in an organizational study that provides an opportunity to infuse department policies, procedures, and practices with key EDI principles. While the Police have undergone police specific training, the Village has also enrolled many staff in the YWCA’s Unlearning Racism workshops. The Shorewood Library and the Senior Resource Center have sponsored several important conversations about race. Despite the pandemic, the series of conversation are engaging and provide the public with an opportunity to learn more about EDI issues. Like the CDA and others, the library and resource center collaborate with a variety of speakers and consultants to provide opportunities for decision makers and residents to hear different perspectives and increase their knowledge about key issues. Shorewood has ensured communication to residents about EDI issues through several communication methods including the Village Manager’s Weekly Memo, and collaboration with the Shorewood Today magazine. The Village has constructed a strong track record in EDI issues. However, there are ways for the Village to improve. During our environmental scan, we will gather information that helps us better assess the Village’s work. Specifically, we will seek to answer the following questions about the Village’s EDI work.
1. Has Shorewood prioritized its EDI work to maximize resources and to address critical issues that impact residents?
2. Has Shorewood identified the staff person or position to take the lead to ensure that plans are implemented, progress measured and communicated, and course corrections made?
3. Does Shorewood have a systematic process for tracking EDI work, its outcomes and progress in achieving its goals?
4. Does Shorewood have a plan that increases representation of diverse residents on the Board and committees?
5. Does the Shorewood have a strategy to increase the diversity of its workforce? 6. Does Shorewood have a strategy to increase utilization of minority businesses on municipal
contracts? 7. How does Shorewood ensure that its EDI work is sustainable given potential change in its
leadership and budget constraints?
Additional Activities Recommended These additional services can be incorporated into our work plan without additional funding because they are critical to our work. Interviewing EDI Committee prior to the kick-off meeting. Dr. Pritchard will conduct 45-minute, individual interviews with members of the committee to gather their knowledge and expertise in refining the scope, understanding their perspectives and their priorities. The scope identifies two Trustees, two HH committee members, and Department Head Leadership. Identification of racial disparities that affect the Village’s ability to achieve its EDI goals. – It is important to understand how our history has affected individuals today so that municipalities can identify corrective actions. The research we will be collecting as a part of our research, will lend itself to our identifying racial disparities.

This additional idea is not included in our work plan. The identification of additional education and training resources that individuals can engage in at their own pace without participating with a group could be beneficial. EDI issues can be sensitive and increase anxiety and stress for some individuals. Providing opportunities for people to learn individually could be worthwhile Kairo Communications could add this at no cost to our work plan if this fits the needs of Shorewood.

March 28, 2022 Hello Rebecca, I am writing to summarize the key points that we discussed regarding Kairo Communications proposal this afternoon.
1. The formal quote for Kairo Communications was identified as Quote Two in the proposal we submitted. The quote was $50,000 for the Environmental Scan and $20,000 for the Strategic Plan. In our proposal we also included Quote One which contained higher quotes for both the environmental scan and the strategic plan. Quote One was submitted so that reviewers would note that Quote Two included significant discounts.
2. We would like to start the project in April once the appropriate approvals are obtained and the contract executed. This would allow the Kairo team to begin the historical research, literature review, and development of interview protocols in April and May. In June we could start our interviews with Village staff. This would give the new Assistant Village Manager and Police Chief time to acclimate themselves to their new positions and Village operations before we would contact them.
3. Kairo Communications estimates the cost of expenditures in 2022 as $50,000 and $20,000 in 2023.
4. The monthly cost for the Mentimeter tool we will use to engage residents in providing their perspectives and feedback is minimal and is already included in the quote.
5. As currently scheduled, Dr. Pritchard will interview the EDI Committee members prior to the kick-off meeting as part of the environmental scan. Based on when the contract is signed, we will hold the kick-off meeting in April or May 2022. This activity is a part of our proposal, and the cost is included in our quote. As discussed, we will revisit whether additional interviews of the EDI committee are warranted during the strategic planning process. At that time, we will discuss if additional costs will be charged for this task.
6. We will provide information regarding education and training resources that individuals can engage in at their own pace without participating with a group. These tools will help individuals increase their cultural competency and knowledge about equity, diversity, and inclusion. We will also include information about how to access and use our Blackistory app, which includes questions about African American history in an engaging, educational format. If the Village would like us to develop resources, such as, a workbook or other materials, we would identify a cost for these additional tasks.
7. As we discussed, Kairo will submit weekly emails to provide information regarding the work performed and progress made. We will also identify any issues that could negatively affect the project, such as, difficulty in scheduling interviews or receiving requested documents.
8. Kairo Communications will submit monthly invoices based on the work performed. Our weekly emails will serve as progress reports that document the work performed and support the information provided on our monthly invoices.
Please let me know if this document accurately reflects our discussion. If there are any issues that you feel need further clarification, please let me know. The Kairo Communications team is excited about this project and our partnership with the Village of Shorewood. Take care, Deborah
VILLAGE OF SHOREWOOD REPORTS AND PRESENTATIONS TO VILLAGE BOARD
Agenda Item: Consider 2022 WDNR Safe Drinking Water Loan Program Private Lead Service Line Replacement program structure
Date: April 4, 2022
Presenter: Leeann Butschlick, Director Department: Public Works/Water Utility
History – Please include a timeline of historical relevant events related to this agenda item. This may include
previous Village Board action, policies, planning documents, etc. If able, hyperlink to previous agenda packets (include page number) to reference information. If there is no relevant history, N/A should be entered in this space.
The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) in collaboration with the Department of Administration and the Public Service Commission (PSC) has established the Private Lead Service Line (LSL) Replacement Program to assist municipalities in their efforts to replace private LSLs. The funding may be used for construction-related costs associated with the removal and replacement of private LSLs. Only the portion between the curb stop and the normal connection point inside the building is eligible for funding. Awards will be 100% principal forgiveness and are made one construction season at a time. Please recall that the Village Board recently approved a contract to perform a Lead and Copper Rule review exercise; it is anticipated that a significant portion of that effort will include the evaluation of options for a Lead Service Line Replacement Program. Staff anticipates the implementation of a limited 2022 program (which may be considered a pilot program) will provide valuable information in the development and design of a future Village-wide program.
Agenda Item Discussion – Please provide a summary of the agenda item along with bullet points highlighting
the main items and key issues to be discussed.
Grant Award and Program Requirements The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources has awarded the Village of Shorewood Safe Drinking Water Loan Program Private Lead Service Line Replacement funding in the amount of $405,000 for use in the 2022 calendar year (full funding list attached). Please recall that the Village’s application requested funding for up to 50 private LSL replacements. Per current Village policy, the municipally owned portion of the service must be replaced at the time of a private side replacement. The municipal side is not eligible for grant funding. The program allows for two implementation approaches:
1) Municipal Program with prequalified list of contractors - Under this option the municipality issues a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) in order to prequalify plumbers/contractors for participation in the private LSL replacement program. Homeowners contract directly with a plumber from the prequalified list and then are either reimbursed by the municipality or the municipality can pay the plumber directly on the homeowner's behalf.
2) Municipal contract - Under this option the municipality bids out the private LSL replacement work through their normal municipal contracting process. All costs are paid directly by the municipality who coordinates the timing of the private LSL replacement with the homeowner. Federal Davis-Bacon wage rates are required when the municipality directly contracts for the work.
2022 WDNR Private LSL program April 4, 2022

Both approaches required disadvantaged business enterprise (DBE) solicitation, certification of compliance with the American Iron and Steet requirements and WDNR environmental review of each participating property. The SDWLP LSL replacement program will pay up to 100% of the costs associated with the replacement of a private lead service line. WDNR requirements allow municipalities to require some level of property owner financial participation; the grant was not written with anticipated cost share. Suggested Village 2022 Program As of its last PSC reporting, the Village has an estimated 3,005 private lead service lines (of a total of 3,518) in its distribution system. Given the very small fraction of LSLs which can be replaced with the funding award (1.7% of current LSLs), staff does not recommend an open (first-come, first-served) program, but rather a targeted and very specific approach to the application of these funds. Implementation Approach Given that construction season is already underway and DPW/Utility staff’s current project workload, the municipal contract approach is not recommended. Staff suggests the development of a prequalified list of contractors. A draft prequalification form (which meets all program requirements) is attached for your reference. If approved, this will be released on April 1. Interested contractors who submit the qualification form will be vetted by Village staff and placed on the Qualified Contractor List, as appropriate. Participating property owners will select a contractor from the approved list and execute a three-party agreement form (currently being reviewed by the Village Attorney). A plumbing permit will be required and upon completion and documentation of work, the Village would issue a check directly to the contractor. Selection of Participating Properties Staff suggests three categories of eligibility:
1) Day Care Facilities. There are two registered in-home daycare facilities in the Village which have lead service lines based upon current records. Staff suggests these properties be prioritized for replacement. As previously reported, all schools have non-lead service lines.
2) Water Meter Replacement-Identified Conditions. In 2021, a total of 56 lead service lines were replaced in the Village. Of these, approximately 40 were replaced due to broken/inoperable curb stops, or other issues identified during the meter replacement program. It is reasonable to assume that similar numbers exist in the remaining meter replacement area. If that is accurate, staff would anticipate the replacement of approximately 40 municipal lead services over the course of 2022. At the time of these replacements, grant funding could be offered to these property owners to provide a complete lead service line replacement.
3) Reserve Funding. On or about September 1st, staff will evaluate the program. If municipal side service replacement is lower than anticipated, an approach will be recommended to the Village Board to complete expenditure of grant funds outside the AMI project area.
A suggested summary program document is attached.

Mandatory Replacement Ordinance Development Please also note that the grant award includes up to $5,000 toward the costs related to the development of a mandatory replacement ordinance. This is anticipated to be a prominent discussion component of any future Village LSL replacement program and is one of several key DNR criteria when scoring applications for future funding awards (note Shorewood’s low priority score on attached funding list). This concept will be addressed in the LSL Program introduction currently scheduled for the April 18 Village Board meeting.

REQUEST FOR QUALIFICATIONS
FOR LICENSED PLUMBERS/UTILITY CONTRACTORS INTERESTED IN PARTICIPATING IN THE
PRIVATE LEAD SERVICE LINE (LSL) REPLACEMENT PROGRAM
Background The Village of Shorewood is seeking qualifications from licensed plumbers and/or utility contractors who are interested in performing private lead service line replacement work. The WI DNR has made funds available through the SDWLP to qualified municipalities to eliminate the private portion of a lead service line serving a single-family home, a multi-family building, a pre-k through 12 school, or a licensed or certified infant/child daycare facility. Licensed plumbers/utility contractors providing appropriate responses to the RFQ will be placed on a certified plumbers list. Owners of these properties will be able to contract directly with a licensed certified plumber/utility contractor and once work is completed, eligible costs will be paid by the Village of Shorewood directly to the contractor.
Project Goal The goal of the project is to eliminate the health hazards associated with private lead service lines. For the purposes of the SDWLP program, private lead service line replacement means, “the replacement of the existing lead service line between the curb stop and the water meter within the structure.”
Definitions/Terms
Through the municipality, the SDWLP Private LSL Replacement Program will provide for reimbursement of eligible costs for a property owner to replace a private lead service line at the properties described above. Typically, all construction costs normally associated with replacing the private portion of the lead service line will be reimbursed. Typical costs might include the cost of excavation, materials, labor, backfill, and restoration. No-dig methods of pipe installation might also be considered as a typical cost. Non-typical costs at a property may be allowed pending review and approval by the municipality and the SDWLP Private LSL Replacement Program. A non-typical cost might include the cost of rerouting the private portion of the lead service line to a more acceptable location within a structure when it results in an overall cost saving.
Water Service is defined as that portion of a water supply system from the water main or private water supply to the building control valve.
Private water services is defined as that portion of a water supply system from the curb valve box to the building control valve.
Municipal service is defined as that potion of the water supply system from the water main to and through the curb valve box.
Project Schedule The anticipated project schedule is listed below. Dates are subject to change.
Based upon the SDWLP Private LSL Replacement Program guidelines, Shorewood will fund qualified costs when a licensed plumber/utility contractor is contracted directly by the property owner.
To comply with the SDWLP funding requirements, the privately contracted certified licensed plumber must perform the work in accordance with the following:
1. Work shall be performed by a licensed plumber under s. SPS 305.90, Wis. Adm. Code, or utility contractor under s. SPS 305.97, Wis. Adm. Code.
2. Work shall be performed in accordance with the plumbing code requirements found in chs. SPS 381- 391, Wis. Adm. Code.
3. Work shall be performed as required by all applicable OSHA requirements/standards. 4. The licensed plumber/utility contractor must submit documentation to verify the lead service
line replacement at each address where work was performed. 5. Licensed plumbers/utility contractors performing lead service line replacement work shall
comply with the SDWLP Private LSL Replacement Program requirements, including Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Solicitation, the use of American Iron and Steel (AIS), and when applicable, Davis-Bacon and Related Acts.
Federal Requirements
1. A NEPA-like environmental review must have been completed (by Village staff) for the property prior to start of work.
2. DBE Solicitation - DBEs, including MBEs and WBEs, are encouraged to submit bid proposals/apply for the purpose of being included on the municipality’s list of prequalified plumbers for the Private Lead Service Line replacement program. Plumbers/contractors must solicit for DBEs if any restoration subcontracting is done.
3. Davis-Bacon and Related Acts may apply based on property ownership or contractor employee status.
4. AIS requirements must be met. Contractor must certify that all materials used in the project are in full compliance with the American Iron and Steel requirement as mandated in EPA's State Revolving Fund programs.
Submission Instructions
Licensed plumbers/utility contractors interested in performing lead service line replacements funded by the Private Lead Service Line Replacement Program should submit a response to the RFQ by completing the provided submission form.

VILLAGE OF SHOREWOOD REPORTS AND PRESENTATIONS TO VILLAGE BOARD Agenda Item: Consider Policy 32 Conducting Hybrid and Video Recording Public Meetings amendment. Date: April 4, 2022 Presenter: Rebecca Ewald, Village Manager Department: Village Manager’s Office History – Please include a timeline of historical relevant events related to this agenda item. This may include previous Village Board action, policies, planning documents, etc. If able, hyperlink to previous agenda packets (include page number) to reference information. If there is no relevant history, N/A should be entered in this space.
1. December 20, 2021 – the Village Board approved Policy 32 Conducting Hybrid and Video Recording Public Meetings, see attachment. Once a date is agreed upon to resume in person meetings, the Board is requested to pass a resolution revoking Resolution 2020-02 Declaring a Public Health Emergency. The revocation would also expire the special loading zones for businesses for curbside pickup. The Village Attorney advised the virtual meeting environment was designed to provide temporary assistance during COVID; however, the statutes do not support continuing in a virtual meeting environment on a permanent basis, as it does not meet the intent of the open meetings law.
“Public officials can be given the option to appear at an in person meeting virtually. After the COVID threat subsides and live meetings return as the norm (whenever that may be), there is legal guidance suggesting that it is proper to allow an elected official to participate in that meeting by phone conference or through a platform like zoom. However, that legal guidance also suggests that such a circumstance be reserved for an unusual and unique circumstance, and should not be the norm or even common. There should be a good reason for doing on an isolated basis.”
It was noted during the discussion that the Village Manager would be the staff member to first use the video recording equipment with the Village Board to assess staff resources required and manage expectations for the equipment with the Village Board.
2. March 21, 2022 – the Village Board revoked the emergency declaration for COVID and relayed all meetings would resume in person beginning April 4.
___________________________________________________________________________________ Agenda Item Discussion – Please provide a summary of the agenda item along with bullet points highlighting the main items and key issues to be discussed. Following the March 7, 2022 meeting the approved hybrid meeting policy was updated to reflect the Village Board’s direction,
“On April 4, 2022 the Village Board meetings will begin using a hybrid approach that will allow community members to attend a meeting virtually or live in-person. All other boards, committees, and commissions will continue to convene in-person. After a few months of utilizing a hybrid approach, the Village Board will assess the hybrid meeting method for other boards, committees, and commissions.”
Following April 4 the expectation of committee members is to be in person; however, the Village has always permitted in unique circumstances the availability for members to telephone into the meeting if
approved by the Chair. To accommodate for this possibility for both members and presenters, the hybrid meeting policy was further updated to reflect that volunteer committees may have virtual attendance by a committee member or presenter if approved by the Chair and staff liaison assistance is available. This would be virtual presence only and not a hybrid meeting. If a group other than a board, committee or commission desires to hold a hybrid or exclusively virtual special workshop or listening session that does not constitute a quorum of any other group, permission may be granted by the Village Manager or designated staff liaison. As previously noted staff will continue review the policy after some use and advise of any additional suggestions during the summer months. Community and Business Outreach – If applicable, did you notify the community groups and businesses that are directly impacted by this agenda item. Please specify in attached communication plan how community groups and businesses will be informed of action after Village Board consideration. __X__ Yes _____ No If Yes, identify how and what community groups and businesses were notified. Action Required / Recommended – Please include the recommended motion or possible actions for this agenda item. Recommended motion: “I move to approve the amendments to Policy 32 Conducting Hybrid and Video Recording Public Meetings.” Attachments – Please list the following attachments and supporting documents for this agenda item. Some attachments may be hyperlinked. Include Fiscal notes, if applicable, as the first attachment following this memorandum. Attachments may include: agreements/contracts, presentation materials, letters, service proposals, etc.
1. Amended Policy No. 32 Conducting Hybrid and Video Recording Public Meetings
Enacted on August 14, 2017, Revised December 20, 2021, April 4, 2022
Policy No. 32 Page 1 of 3
Conducting Hybrid and Video Recording Public Meetings Authority: Shorewood Village Board
Summary The Village is enforcing Policy No. 32 for the purpose of establishing guidelines for conducting hybrid and video recording public meetings. The Village will utilize video recording equipment and a video conferencing platform for the purpose of conducting certain meetings that can be viewed virtually as well as video recorded and downloaded for public access. Community members will have the ability to either watch those meetings live in-person or virtually through the video conferencing platform. The video recording is not to be substituted or used for the purpose of acting as the official public meeting minutes. Instead, the video recording will primarily serve as another method for residents and other people to access Village of Shorewood business conducted at public meetings. Hybrid Meetings On April 4, 2022 the Village Board meetings will begin using a hybrid approach that will allow community members to attend a meeting virtually or live in-person. All other boards, committees, and commissions will convene in-person. After a few months of utilizing a hybrid approach, the Village Board will assess the hybrid meeting method for other boards, committees, and commissions. These are the following guidelines officials, staff, and other attendees are asked to follow for hybrid meetings:
• Officials who are attending a hybrid meeting in-person may bring a computer or device so they can have a personal view of the video conferencing platform. Officials opting to do this must mute their audio on their computer or device so it doesn’t conflict with the audio from the room’s main operating computer.
• Officials desiring to attend a meeting virtually must obtain the permission from the chair to attend virtually and be able to vote. Officials are asked to be on camera at all times unless they receive permission in advance from the chair.
• Staff, outside presenters, consultants, etc. may attend virtually with approval of the Village Manager or the designated staff liaison. These individuals must only be on camera when they are presenting. Otherwise, they are asked to be off camera and on mute.
• Community members who wish to attend a meeting virtually will be asked to be off camera and on mute unless they are communicating directly with the board. If a
Enacted on August 14, 2017, Revised December 20, 2021, April 4, 2022
community member wishes to converse with the board, they shall raise their virtual hand and wait to be called on by the chair.
• The Village reserves the right to remove a community member from the public meeting if they do not respect the rules and guidelines presented by the chair and/or the board.
Community members shall be aware that there is a possibility video conferencing for a meeting may not be available due to technological failures or errors. Any meetings the Village is promoting to be in a virtual or hybrid format shall be cancelled if the video conferencing technology is unavailable due to technological failures or errors. If a board, committee, or commission other than the Village Board, Plan Commission, Police Commission and CDA wishes to use a hybrid approach for special workshop or listening session, they must gain approval from the Village Board. If a board, committee or commission other than the Village Board, Plan Commission, Police Commission and CDA desire to permit virtual attendance of a presenter or member of their board, committee or commission, who may have otherwise requested to telephone into the meeting, they may do so if permitted by the Committee Chair with the agreement of the staff liaison. The Village has noted it does not have sufficient staff resources to facilitate a virtual presence for volunteer committees. This would be a virtual presence only and not a hybrid meeting. If a group other than a board, committee or commission desires to hold a hybrid or exclusively virtual special workshop or listening session that does not constitute a quorum of any other group, permission may be granted by the Village Manager or designated staff liaison. Video Recording Meetings The Village will video record the following meetings:
• All regular and special Village Board meetings • All Plan Commission meetings • All Community Development Authority meetings • All Police Commission meetings
The meetings mentioned above should all be held in the Village Hall Court or Committee room when possible. If the meetings are held elsewhere besides the Village Hall Court or Committee room, Village staff will do its best to still video record the meeting. Village staff will be responsible for setting up and downloading the video recordings onto the Village website. Staff will do their best to ensure the video recordings are downloaded and available to the public on the website within one week after the public meetings are conducted. Staff may edit and remove portions of the video recording only if there is footage before the public meeting starts, after the public meeting is adjourned, or during a meeting break and/or recess. Any parts of any meetings listed in the policy that go into closed session will not be
Enacted on August 14, 2017, Revised December 20, 2021, April 4, 2022
video recorded. Once the Village enters open session after a closed session, the meeting will then continue the video recording. The Village will not be liable for any technological failures or errors when attempting to record the meetings. The Village will also not be liable if comments from the public during the recording are made that violates the Village’s communication policy. Open meetings law allows citizens the right to video record open meetings as long as the action does not disrupt the meeting. The law states the Village must make reasonable effort to accommodate any person who wants to video record an open session meeting as long as it doesn’t interfere with the meeting. No video recording will be performed or permitted for closed sessions. The Village will post all videos online through a website host that provides the service of downloading and storing video recordings. The Village will store all video files to be consistent with the Village Ordinance §138-7 and will not remove any videos prior to the length of time stated in the Village Ordinance.
4/4/22 President Report to Village Board RE: Thoughts on Supporting Transparency & Accountability Background: Transparency and accountability are common interests and concerns in today’s government. While Shorewood adheres to the general practices through compliance with Open Meeting Law, maintaining a robust website and intentional communications practice, and offering multiple avenues for public input, there can be differences in expectations or an unintentional missed opportunity on occasion. Left unspoken, these differences can create confusion or interfere with conducting business. Reflection: It has been my experience that everyone in the Village organization and Board supports the practice and ideals related to transparency and accountability. We may have different expectations or ideas about how to do that and there are often real constraints with accommodating differing or changing expectations. This can interfere with productivity. In the hopes of providing clarity to all members of the organization, I am offering these general guidelines for us to use collectively and individually until other standards are adopted. General Standards:
1. Organization a. Transparency: Mostly guided by statute (Open Meeting Law and FOIA), code
and policy. Information sharing is policy and capacity set by VB. b. Accountability: do we follow statute, code, policy? Do we have evidence and
rationale when we don’t? Do we clearly communicate what we do? Do we follow through within reason? Ease of access- within current capacity determined by VM? Do we take input and consider at the right time?
2. Personal
a. Transparency: do I communicate my goals, expectations, and needs clearly and timely?
b. Accountability: do my expectations and needs reflect current standard or higher? Are they within current capacity or desired capacity? Are they within scope of the current current?
Conclusion: I welcome feedback and conversation as we all help each other be the best we can be in a productive and positive environment of governance for the community.
