WHEREAS, there are presently two (2) Circuit Court Judges
for St. Croix County, and

and
WHEREAS, St. Croix County is one of the fastest growing and
wealthiest counties in Wisconsin, thereby indicating that more

County to have the State Legislature create an additional
judgeship for St. Croix County to be effective whenever another

Circuit Judge,
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the St. Croix County Board
of Supervisors, meeting in regular session, that the Board

created immediately, but with the effective date to be upon

Circuit Judge; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that certified copies of this
Resolution be immediately forwarded to Governor Thompson, our
