The trail goes from the day use side to the campground side of the park, but is not currently passable with grounds and maintenance equipment. The 8-10' wide trail would have a class 5 gravel surface and proper signage for all users. The trail improvement project includes the installation of a boardwalk and bridge to cross Beaver Creek. The goals of this trail improvement project are to: improve staff safety by allowing maintenance equipment to travel from one side of the park to the other without traveling down Rustic Road 3, improve bike and pedestrian traffic from the campground to the day use side and beach, and improve the snowmobile crossing of Beaver Creek. If awarded this grant, construction would begin in early 2025 with completion mid-summer.

Qbdlfu!Qh/!81 :/3 Legal Fiscal Administrative Approvals: Legal Note: Fiscal Impact: The total cost of this trail project is estimated at $305,350 but this grant has an 80/20 cost share. So the County's cost of the project would be approximately $61,070 and the DNR's would be $244,280 if the grant is awarded. Staff will use existing funds approved in the 2024 CIP and regular budget to meet the County's obligation, so no additional funds are needed to support this grant application. 05/7/24 05/07/24Community Development CommitteeRECOMMENDED SFTVMU;SFDPNNFOEFE!\\VOBOJNPVT^ NPWFS;Ryan Sherley, Supervisor TFDPOEFS;Jerry VanSomeren, Supervisor BZFT;Anderson, Reis, Counter, Sherley, VanSomeren FYDVTFE;Dick Hesselink Vote Confirmation.

Their purpose was to assist in the acquisition of transportation equipment for local transportation vendors as well as to increase mobility capabilities and services. St. Croix County Department on Aging and now the Aging and Disability Resource Center has had a long-standing partnership with this organization. CURRENT: The ADRC leases two vehicles from A&H Transportation for $2,000 annually ($1,000 each). These vehicles currently are used and stored in the Glenwood City community, however, are used all throughout the county. The ADRC has been the only operators of these vehicles since the time of purchase. Through our contract, we currently pay for all expenses (maintenance, fuel, and insurance) of these vehicles thru the 85.21 Specialized Transportation Grant. A &H Transportation has made the decision to dissolve the 501c3 non-profit organization at this time. They have voted to donate the currently operated and leased vehicles to St. Croix County for continued use by the ADRC effective immediately. Individually, both vehicles are valued at over $10,000. Vehicles include: 1.2017 Dodge Caravan, trade in value is under $10,000 but private sale value per Kelly Blue book is in the $11,000-$12,000 range. 2.2011 Goshen Mini Bus, per comparisons is close to $34,500-$39,500 range. Not able to obtain value per Kelly Blue book, but comparable market research shows resale of this value. The van was cash purchased by A&H in 2017. The bus was purchased by A&H with a 5310 transportation grant back in 2010. Approval has been obtained through WisDOT to transfer the title to St. Croix County due to the relationship with the organization and lease agreement. Per WisDOT disposal guidelines, the bus has met the definition of exceeding useful life. The ADRC will continue to be responsible to maintain necessary reporting requirements to WisDOT.

Assisted local municipalities in obtaining state reimbursement for storm damages. Nextgen 911 was implemented Audiolog recording software and hardware upgraded Successfully planned and implemented temporary office relocation during building construction Continue to retain and recruit staff during and after high profile events. Issues, Concerns and Restraints Although the Sheriff’s Office has made great strides in staffing levels in 2023, we continue to face challenges as a result of a competitive job market, wage disparities, and social climate resulting in small applicant pools. Increased costs in replacement equipment and extended lead times of delivery. Software maintenance costs continue to increase at higher-than-normal rates. Temporary challenges in inmate placement will occur during safety screening installation and flooring updates to cellblocks. Our staff has adapted to the challenges of being displaced to various locations, including working from home, and are working on reunification of all staff once the sheriff’s office expansion is complete. Increased requests for open records and the required redaction of protected information. Within the jail, there are at least 16 different inmate classifications. Ensuring proper placement and cell assignments continues to be demanding and challenging.

We had forty 30-minute watches due to mental health or medical reasons and 125 general watches for medical or behavioral issues. These increased needs take more time, attention and documentation from jail staff. “Medicated Assisted Treatment (MAT)”, continues in the jail which provides medication and programming for Opioid or Alcohol dependency for qualified inmates, while in custody and when they are released. Education and Programming in the jail has continued and is well attended. A combination of on-line and in-person classes are offered on a regular basis in the jail.

In 2023, we conducted 151 investigations that were drug related, of which 37 of these investigations were the result of a substance overdose. In 2023 there was an increase in grant funding for both the Heroin grant and Methamphetamine Grant. These funds were used to reimburse overtime for meth and heroin related cases. This includes time spent on search warrants, cellphone searches, interviews, arrests, and ongoing information gathering. Sheriff’s Office and local law enforcement agencies from Polk and Pierce Counties form the St. Croix Valley Drug Task Force.

Virtual Court The Court Services Unit continues to organize, schedule, and prepare for video conferences. These virtual rooms have been used frequently for court appearances. Project Lifesaver Program The 2023 PLS (Project Lifesaver Program) relies on radio technology and specially trained search and rescue teams. Clients enrolled in Project Lifesaver wear a small transmitter on the wrist or ankle that emits an individualized frequency signal. If an enrolled client goes missing, the caregiver notifies their local Project Lifesaver agency, and a trained emergency team responds to the client’s area. The first responders will then use the client’s individualized frequency to locate the position of the individual.

The advent AI has added a new vector which malicious actors have been exploiting to compromise networks globally. Malicious actors can use generative AI tools to reduce costs and increase the scale of cyber incidents and foreign influence Qbdlfu!Qh/!217 21/4/b operations. They use AI for tasks such as querying open-source information, translating, finding coding errors, and running basic coding tasks. To help create awareness among staff, we are developing training that focuses on AI and the potential for misuse by people and organizations with bad intentions. Another area of concern is broadband at remote County locations. The eastern side of the county seems to be the most challenging. Internet providers comment on the challenges of burying fiber optic cable along County roadways where the terrain is less than ideal. In these instances, cooperation with the County for areas where the terrain makes it cost-prohibitive to bury fiber would be helpful. As we look forward into 2024, we will be challenged with maintaining connectivity during construction as users are repositioned throughout the buildings while the construction takes place. The IT Department is working with representatives at the State level to coordinate the moves of Courts and District Attorney equipment. Goals and Objectives for Current Year 2024 -Continue coordination of IT aspects of construction project. -Replace UPS system at Services Center. -Implement user and data auditing tools. -Roll out AI Policy and training on the ethical use of AI. -Broadband installation at outlying County facilities.
