Off Season Hard On 3 Large Projects Competing For Scarce Wisconsin Dells Area Public Resources

Three large projects are competing for scarce community resources in the Wisconsin Dells area.  The 3 large projects are:

- Elm Street Outdoor Plaza

- Lake Delton Law Enforcement Building Alcan and Miller

- High School Along Rocky Arbor State Park

With annual visitation numbers down across the Wisconsin Dells area - and now being in the off season - access to community resources are very tight.   The off season in the Wisconsin Dells area is a time period between September 15th to about April 15th.

During the off season more than 75 percent of the store fronts in the down town Wisconsin Dells commercial district close.  This is due to the insignificant number of over night guests staying in the large resorts.

During the off season residents are exposed to additional voluntary taxes in the form of fund raisers. Some of the municipal departments will organize and conduct fund raisers to get them through the long off season- and keep the department operating.

Committee members working on the three large projects are now confronted with very limited resources - and will be required to share between projects in order to bring some form of completion to all of them.
