Candidate Louis Kutzke Supports Local Police Efforts

Your candidate for mayor of the City of Wisconsin Dells recognizes the emerging threats to the community that our police department should not have to face alone.  This means coordinating the support that facilitates the ability of the police force to function at a higher level.  Recall the recent act of purposefully burning a huge work force housing building in an adjoining community.

Emerging threats:

- Opioid epidemic
- Gun violence
- Human trafficking
- Home land terrorism

Coordinating support improves retention of our much needed officers on the police force. A simple example of this is TRIAD - this is a County organized effort where seniors and law enforcement work together to reduce criminal victimization of the elderly.  Please vote Louis Kutzke for mayor of the City of Wisconsin Dells on February 20th in the primary election and then again on April 2nd in the general election.

Wisconsin Dells Real Estate Industry Regulates Act of Property Inspection

In the State of Wisconsin the act of inspecting improvements (buildings) on private owned property is regulated by the Real Estate Industry.  The person must have taken the authorized instructive classes- passed the exam- and carry a number that certifies them upon the State of Wisconsin Registry.

A Municipality sending an employee who is not certified around the community threatening fines and additional action against a family regarding the condition of their buildings is selective enforcement.  This exposes the Municipality to expensive- labor intensive law suits that can go back across time to right this mistake.

A Municipality like the City of Wisconsin Dells that carries a huge debt load (north of 30 million dollars) cannot afford this expensive - time consuming litigation. The next mayor of the City of Wisconsin Dells will need to eliminate the appointed position that delivers financial penalties to City of Wisconsin Dells residents for property deterioration- shift the funds over to the public works budget to employ another staff person.

This is essential to eliminating the risk of lengthy- expensive litigation the Municipality cannot afford.  Pictured is deterioration on the City owned and maintained building in the Heart of Wisconsin Dells.  Louis Kutzke respectfully asks for your vote as mayor of the City of Wisconsin Dells on February 20th in the primary election and then again on April 3rd in the general election.

Wisconsin Dells Excessive Municipal Debt

The City of Wisconsin Dells is a small resort community with a population of less than 3 thousand people.  The primary revenue producing industry is a 90 day summer tourist season.  The bulk of the buildings are historically significant being more than 100 years old.  The geography cannot be described with out using the word ravines.

The Municipal debt load is greater than 30 million dollars - when coupled with rising interest rates the community is facing a looming liability.  In order to compensate in a top down Federal and State tax reform economy the City of Wisconsin Dells needs a larger number of operating business modals- to benefit from the boost in spending.

Transforming Municipal policy to improve a new business operators set up experience in the City of Wisconsin Dells commercial district- will be an important task for the next elected mayor.  Louis Kutzke respectfully asks for your vote as mayor of the City of Wisconsin Dells on February 20th in the primary election and then again on April 3rd in the general election.

Emotions Ramping Up Mayors Election Wisconsin Dells

The conversation in the coffee shops in the City of Wisconsin Dells are getting louder.  An accurate way to understand the emerging desperation being expressed across the community with the mayoral election for the City of Wisconsin Dells - is linking prevalent perceptions to the outcomes present in the commercial district due to Municipal policy.

Louis Kutzke candidate for mayor of the City of Wisconsin Dells plans to involve more of the community in the decision making process at the Municipal level.  This will include a system designed to properly evaluate Municipal endeavors prior to implementation.  This is a proven means to achieve better outcomes with fewer community resources.

Wisconsin Dells Reconfigures Oak Street 2 Lessen Employers and Workers

Your candidate Louis Kutzke for mayor of Wisconsin Dells has extensive experience managing risk across the regulatory landscape. This work entails navigating lots of moving parts that function to comprise the health insurance and medical regulatory delivery systems. This involves engaging participants of the decision making process to assure a beneficial outcome for the user population.

In the City of Wisconsin Dells from the benefit of viewing after the passage of much time we can see the massive reconfiguration of Oak street between Broadway and Washington Avenue is now home to less employers and less workers.  We are in the later stages as 2 of the operating business owners have acquired the adjoining property to create a larger parcel.  This activity delivers an immediate boost to the business operators assets.

Less employers and less workers means less local trade and limits the opportunity for the Municipality to capture more of the summer visitor dollars.  This asks the reader where oh where is the return on investment - as these Municipal endeavors have proven costly.

Managing risk is an important skill for the mayor to employ - especially in times of limited resources.  This work would entail navigating lots of moving parts that function to comprise the Federal and State regulatory systems.  This involves engaging participants of the decision making process to assure a beneficial outcome for the residents of the City of Wisconsin Dells.

Removing The Boat Improves Local Revenue Distribution

Removing the large river tour boat opens the road to vehicle traffic and improves the fire/rescue response time to 2 of the City of Wisconsin Dells 55 and over apartment complexes.  This also creates a lease opportunity for the local family who have owned and maintained the vacant lot on Broadway and Cedar Street throughout many years.  This gives the local family an opportunity to benefit by receiving revenue through leases that facilitate down town entertainment requests.  This is a public - private partnership working toward the common goal of increasing the visitor population across the commercial district.
