City of Stoughton

Council rejects
direct legislation
petition, again

Eggs in the outfield


Nearly 200 people showed up to
participate in the Easter egg hunt
in Stoughton on Saturday. The
Kiwanis Club organized the event,
with help from the Aktion Club to
stuff candy inside the eggs and
the Key Club to distribute 3,000
eggs on the baseball field at
Mandt Park.

Committee will look


at TIF policy

The Common Council last week rejected a


petition that would have
imposed new requirements
on the city when borrowing money for tax-increment finance districts.
The council accepted the
advice of the city attorney
and voted 10-1 to reject a
direct legislation petition
that was signed by almost
1,000 city residents and
submitted to City Hall
on Feb. 17. If approved,

the measure would have


required, among many
other provisions, voter
approval before the city
could borrow more than
$1 million for an approved
or proposed TIF district.
Though the council
rejected the petition, the
council did attempt to
honor its intention by voting to have a committee
review the citys TIF policy.
Direct legislation is a
process in which citizens
gather enough signatures
on petitions to force an
outcome thats not necessarily sanctioned by the
governing body in this

City OKs second downtown farmers market

A new Saturday farmers market


featuring mostly local vendors and
products appears headed for downtown Stoughton.
The Stoughton Common Council last week unanimously approved
plans for the market, which is expected to open May 30 and run until Sept.
26.
The farmers market will be open
from 8 a.m. until noon on Forrest
Street.
Market manager Stephen Lawrence
of the Stoughton Community Farmers Market said he hopes the market
will offer a more intimate setting for

their customers than larger markets in

different crowd from Stoughtons Friday market.
We hope the Stoughton market
will be a lot easier on the mind on a
Saturday, he said. Even though you
can get great products at the Dane
County market, the obstacles of the

trip parking, traffic and congestion


can make you think twice before
getting in your car.
Lawrence also said the group hopes
the market can help the community by
offering another amenity that brings
visitors downtown.
He explained that it will be a producer-only market, unlike the current Friday market, where some of
the people dont produce the products
they sell.
Vendors will be allowed to resell
some products, but there will be
restrictions. The biggest is that products must be at least partially produced within Wisconsin or within 60

about the communitys feelings toward the Kettle Park
West development.
Three advisory referendum questions pertaining to
KPW and development in
other areas of the city will
be on the ballot. And the
race for an open seat in District 3 pits a candidate who
generally favors the KPW
development against a candidate who has expressed
reservations about the project.
Former alder Ross Scovotti sees the development
as a step in the right direction, while political newcomer Regina Hirsch feels
KPW could negatively
impact many local businesses and that the approval process should have
included more community
involvement.

Election: Many area candidates running unopposed

City of Stoughton
While the Common
Council has been divided
over KPW for more than a
year now, proponents have
claimed that a silent majority supports the development
and the citys planned use of
tax-increment financing to
improve infrastructure near
the project site primarily
streets and intersections.
At the same time, a very
vocal and active group of
KPW opponents has also
claimed to speak for the
majority. The activist group
Stoughton Forward gathered
enough signatures of city residents on petitions between
mid-December and mid-February to place three referendum questions on the ballot.
The roughly 1,000 signatures the group gathered
turned out to not be necessary to put two advisory
referendums before voters,
because non-binding referendums are not subject to the
same requirements as a binding referendum. But the petitions likely did help persuade
the council and the Dane
County clerk to change their
minds on the eve of the Feb.
24 deadline.
The council had rejected
an alders request for an
advisory referendum question last fall, and the county

1. Do you agree with the City of Stoughtons decision


to borrow an approximate amount of $5.1 million in Tax
Incremental Financing (TIF) funding to be used in the development of the Kettle Park West project?
2. Should the City of Stoughton focus on redeveloping
the Downtown area to create new retail stores, office buildings and housing to revitalize the Downtown and Yahara
Riverfront area?
3. Do you support the Kettle Park West development,
which includes a new commercial district which will be
anchored by a Wal-Mart Supercenter, and which will also
bring a new residential district to the west of Hwy. 51?
clerk had originally stated
that the group missed the
deadline for non-binding referendums.
The sole binding referendum that Stoughton Forward
hoped to place on the ballot
was rejected by the Common Council, which added
a third advisory question.
That question was put forth
by KPW backer Ald. Eric
Hohol, who is running unopposed in District 4.
Another supporter of the
controversial development,
Pat OConnor, is also running unopposed in District 4.
He was appointed last June
to fill a vacant seat that represents the district.
The other candidate seeking a council seat is Sid
Boersma, who is running
unopposed. He was chosen
by the council last September to represent District 1
after the sudden death of
David Kneebone. And like
his predecessor, Boersma has
opposed the development of
KPW and the citys plan to
borrow at least $5.1 million

Before the April referendum,


some KPW information put forth
needs correction.
1.) Not one dime of tax money
is going to Wal-Mart. The money
is going to the developer to enable
infrastructure to be built that will
make the entire project possible.
If the developer fails to perform,
letters of credit ( insurance) have
been provided by the developer to
cover whatever Stoughton paid for
prior to default.
2.) The State would have paid
for the road work for KPW if that
had been negotiated. Not true. WI
DOT makes improvements for
safety, such as round-a-bouts, not
for developments.
3.) Wal-Mart is going to damage
our area and downtown businesses.Ah, we have had Wal-Mart in
Stoughton for 27 years now.They
have 70 employees, the majority of
whom live in Stoughton and pay
taxes here. So, why does Wal-Mart
want a new store? To better serve
their customer base and to add new

customers. The current store has


crowded aisles, and lacks the product variety customers are asking
for. You cannot buy shoes, boots,
rain gear, jeans, etc. anywhere else
in town. So, some choose to shop
out-of-town or on the internet.
Stoughton gets no property tax revenue from those sources. One thing
Stoughton will get from a larger
Wal-Mart is over 200 jobs. Some
say Wal-Mart doesnt pay well. As
of April 4, 2015, all starting wages
at Wal-Mart will go to $9 minimum
per hour, up from $7.75. On April
1, 2016, every Wal-Mart employee
will start at $10 per hour and move
up.
Now, lets look at the big picture.
In Phase II, KPW can add 213
housing units of which 65 percent
are to be single family. These will
accommodate 539 people, of which
121 can be school-age children.
121 new students for the Stoughton schools! We cant continue to
pass tax increase referendums for
fewer and fewer students. From

Over the course of the past two


years much has been written and
much has been said about the Kettle
Park West development. Reasonable people can certainly disagree
on the value of this development
and how the process concerning
this development has transpired. In
my view, the process has not been
perfect, and there are of course no
absolute guarantees that Kettle Park
West will be successful.
As Ive reflected on this debate, I
keep returning to the fact that when
I began the first of my two terms
on the school board a little over 10
years ago, the districts graduating
classes were almost 300 students
in size, and the community was
proudly working on plans for additional school facilities. As I left the
board six years later, we were in
the process of closing an elementary school, and soon our graduating classes will be 200 students or

less, a 33 percent drop in a relatively short time. This is not a healthy


long-term trend and it bodes ill for
the strength and vitality of our community going forward.
Thus my primary concern now is
how Stoughton can begin to grow
again because we simply must
reverse the negative ramifications
that the lack of growth for the last
10 years is having on our community. And I have concluded that
the KPW development will in fact
serve this purpose, and with very
little risk, for the following reasons:
Stoughton citizens will see NO
increases to their property taxes
from this development.
The incremental tax revenue
gained by the increased taxable
value of the KPW development will
be applied to the tax levy providing
a benefit for every taxpayer (lower
taxes).
The taxable value of the new

buildings in the KPW development,


not the citizens of Stoughton, will
pay for the proposed improvements
to be made to highways 51 and 138,
and these major improvements will
make the area better and safer for
all.
If the KPW Development
should happen to fail, bank letters of
credit payable to the city will cover
the costs for all funds already spent
and allow the city to complete the
improvements to highways 51 and
138.
Thus, I am voting yes on all
three referendum questions on the
April 7 ballot, and urge all of my
fellow Stoughtonites who are truly
concerned about the long-term prosperity of our entire community to do
the same.

2002 and on, Stoughtons school


enrollment has gone down every
year except one. Why? One reason
is Stoughton has not had and does
not have now enough large building lots and the homes on them that
young successful families want.
Take a look at Waunakee. Seventy
percent of their residents work out
of town, but their community and
their schools are growing rapidly.
Why? Because they have provided
the large lots and the homes these
people want.
In Stoughton, 322 housing units
were built from 2000 through
2004. From 2009 through 2013,
69 were built. In Phase II, KPW
will add nearly 40 acres for quality residential development.The
downtown businesses, the opera
house, and new heritage center all
will benefit from the increase in
out-of-town and new resident traffic.We need KPW and our downtown both. Lets go!

Where Are You Going?


Someone recently remarked, in jest, that
he was going to Hell after telling a joke
that was a bit indelicate, even if it wasnt
exactly blasphemous. His remark got me
thinking about the ultimate destination
of our souls, and what we ought to think
and profess about that. There are some
who say we should profess a high degree
of certainty about going to heaven, perhaps in the hope that believing it strongly
enough might make it true, or perhaps just
in the hope that we can raise the bar a bit
on our morals by professing that we are
future saints. St. Paul tells us that we are
saved by faith rather than by works, but
he is quick to add that we shouldnt boast.
(Romans 3: 26-27) Who is so sure of
their own faith, after all? Isnt it Gods job
to examine our hearts and decide whether
we are going to heaven or not, and isnt
the more humble approach to say that we
just dont know, and should not presume
to decide for God? It certainly isnt obvious that any of us deserves eternal bliss,
or that our professions of faith will grant
us instant entry into heaven. Since all have
sinned and fallen short, perhaps the more
honest and humble approach would be to
say that we just dont know where were
going, but that we certainly hope were
going to heaven. Christopher Simon
They have all fallen away; they are all
alike depraved; there is none that does
good, no, not one. Psalm 53:3

Campaign spending stays


under non-reported threshold
Unopposed alder
receives biggest
single donation
JACOB BIELANSKI
Unified Newspaper Group

All but one candidate for


Stoughtons contested Common Council seats pledged
to spend $1,000 or less. And
the one who didnt took in
far less than $1,000 in contributions.
Incumbent Sid Boersma
(D-1) reported a $328.11
contribution from Inkworks
owner Dennis Kittleson.
Inkworks is a printing and
design firm located on Main
Street in Stoughton. The
contribution to Boersma
comes as the incumbent runs

unopposed.
All other candidates
besides Boersma have
claimed the exemption,
according to documents
filed with the Stoughton city
clerk. Candidates can exempt
themselves from Government Accountability Board
reporting requirements if the
sum total of their contributions during a campaign is
below $1,000, and no single
donation exceeds $100.
In addition to the council
election, the ballot will feature a referendum on the Kettle Park West development
championed by a grassroots
organization. That group has
spent money during this election cycle advocating votes
on the referendum question.
The KPW proposal calls
for the city to use $5.4

million in tax-increment
financing to develop a property near the intersection of
U.S. Hwy. 51 and Hwy. 138
into a commercial center
featuring a new Wal-Mart
Supercenter.
Former alder and outspoken KPW critic Buzz
Davis III has spent an undisclosed amount of money
distributing fliers and surveys throughout Stoughton.
Davis who operates under
what he calls a loose coalition referred to as Stoughton Forward, which opposed
original plans for a Wal-Mart
Supercenter claimed last
November a majority of the
426 residents surveyed indicated they did not want to
give the KPW developers a
subsidy.

Legislation: Council will take another look at citys TIF policy


case, the Common Council. The petition could have
skipped the council to create
a new city ordinance.
Local grassroots group
Stoughton Forward collected
signatures for the petition this
winter.
At its March 10 meeting,
the council directed city attorney Matt Dregne analyze the
petition (and the ordinance it
would have created) to determine whether it would be a
proper subject for direct legislation.
Dregne concluded it was
not.
He explained that the Wisconsin Supreme Court has
ruled that direct legislation
cannot be used to modify
statutorily prescribed procedures or standards. His
memo to the council detailed
a variety of standards in the
ordinance that would be
modified, including zoning
procedures and the creation
of TIF districts.
After a lengthy discussion,
the council voted to direct
the city clerk not to place the
question on the April 2016
ballot. The petition was filed
too late to make the April 7
ballot this year.

Rejected petition
Direct Legislation petition that the council rejected
last week:
Should the City of Stoughton adopt the
proposed ordinance requiring the City to conduct
a referendum when the City proposes borrowing
more than $1 million for a proposed or approved
Tax Incremental Financing (TIF) district?
YES ___
NO ___

Choosing to act
The only alder to vote
against the motion was council president Michael Engelberger. (Ald. Sonny Swangstu was absent.)
Engelberger (D-2) and the
city attorney disagreed over
whether the city could legally
prevent the item from getting
on next years ballot. Engelberger also argued in favor
of honoring the will of those
who had signed the petition.
This is about letting the
people decide whether its
right or wrong, he said.
Thats why Id like to see
this adopted.
Engelberger said if the
council opted to not adopt
the ordinance or direct the
city clerk to place the referendum on the ballot, it would
automatically go on the April

2016 ballot
as long as the
petition were
certified by
the clerk.
Dregne had
a different
interpretation: If the Engelberger
council takes
no action, then you wouldnt
do either of those things
(adopt the ordinance or direct
the clerk to place the question
on the ballot), and I would
interpret that to mean that the
council has determined that
its not a proper subject for
direct legislation.
By directing the clerk not
to place the referendum on
a future ballot, the council removed any ambiguity about its position and also
prevented the question from
going before voters.
Dregne had previously
warned the council against
adopting a resolution that
could potentially undo the
citys signed contract with
Forward Development Group

the entity
created to
develop Kettle Park West,
a 35-acre
commercial
development
on the citys
Dregne
west side.
The majority of the council and particularly several who have
opposed KPW was apparently persuaded by Dregnes
interpretation.
Dregne found that the ordinance that would have been
created would have modified
statutory borrowing procedures, the statutory process
for creating and amending
TIF districts and city zoning
regulations using a procedure
that violates Wisconsin law.
There is some precedent
to this ballot question. A
direct legislation petition
called Mount Horeb Community Alert went to the
state Supreme Court after
the village refused to pass
it. The court held the petition, requiring a referendum
for new capital projects over
$1 million, did not violate
any of the four limitations
that would prevent its legality, including the one Dregne
cited.
Dregnes memo, however,
cited two other state Supreme
Court cases where the court
ruled against direct legislation prior to starting construction projects and it noted

OPEN LETTER TO THE


STOUGHTON COMMUNITY
This spring looks to be a milestone moment in the revival of the local
Stoughton Area economy. Over the past six years, we have had the
privilege of engaging in many conversations with City representatives and
community members. These discussions were centered around potential
opportunities for the City to grow as a desirable place to live, work, and
conduct business. This dialogue resulted in the Citys adoption of the
Westside Neighborhood Plan.
The 35-acre Kettle Park West Commercial Center will be the rst step in
implementing the adopted plan. This long-anticipated investment is the
key that will unlock additional private development and state infrastructure
funding. This investment will fund the installation of critically important
street, water, sanitary sewer, and stormwater management infrastructure
improvements and will correct deciencies at the Highway 51 and
138 intersection. These improvements will set the foundation for the
communitys long-term growth, as envisioned in the adopted plan.
When fully developed, this new area of the City will encompass 295 acres,
including nearly 100 acres for new business and employment opportunities
and 78 acres of residential neighborhoods. The plan also protects and
restores nearly 45 acres of open space for parks and environmental
conservancies. All of the infrastructure installed to support the growth of
this new neighborhood will establish the framework for continued longterm stability of the entire community.
Most importantly, the startup of the Kettle Park West Commercial Center
will be another highly-visible success that will bolster private-investor
condence in the community. We continue to be optimistic that the
Stoughton community understands and embraces the importance of
maintaining a commitment to the long-term vision.
We are looking forward to starting this work and urge your favorable
support on Tuesdays advisory referendum questions. Thank you for the
condence you have placed in us and your commitment to a healthy and
vibrant Stoughton that you have demonstrated during the past six years.

Senior Nick McGlynn is one of


two Stoughton High School boys
basketball players that were a part
for three Badger South Conference championships.
But now he adds to his hardware with a first-team All-State
selection in Division 2.
McGlynn, who earned an honorable mention All-State in Division 2 as a sophomore, was also
awarded an unanimous first-team
All-Badger South selection this
season.
McGlynn averaged 16.1 points,
9.3 rebounds, 3.1 blocks and
1.1 assists per game this season,
shooting 59 percent from the field
(148-for-253).
And although he wasnt able
to show off his skills in the state
tournament, as Stoughton fell
in overtime to DeForest in the
regional final, he still showed
enough to the area coaches to earn

one of the top honors in the state.


I cant say enough for what
he has meant to not only our basketball team but also in terms of
our program, head coach Matt
Hockett said. It has really helped
put Stoughton basketball on the
map.
McGlynn reached the 1,000
point plateau on Feb. 6 in a win
over Oregon, and he signed his
National Letter of Intent to play
at Division I Drake University
before the start of the season.
As a sophomore, McGlynn was
a key cog in the first state berth
for the Stoughton boys program
in over 70 years, and he was a
first-team all-conference selection in three years.
McGlynn holds several season

records for Stoughton. He has the


best total for points scored with
393 in 2013. He also has the second-best total with 386 this season.
McGlynn is also 1-2-3 with
offensive rebounds. He had 98
this season, 87 in 2013, and 78 in
2014.
Defensively, McGlynn holds
the top three spots in blocks with
74 this season, 71 in 2014 and 67
in 2013.
He also has the top three spots
in defensive rebounds. He had
179 in 2013, 172 in 2014 and 125
this season.
As for career stats, McGlynn holds school records with
points scored (1,089), offensive
rebounds (263), blocks (212) and

defensive rebounds (476).


Those records are from 1990now, since accurate records were
not kept beforehand.
Besides stats, McGlynn showed
leadership on the floor as well,
which makes his presence one
that will be very missed by the
team and the fans.
He is better off the court in
terms of his character, and I think
that is represented by his grade
point average, which is 3.8 or
3.9, Hockett said. You dont get
into a school like Drake unless
you have the grades as well.
McGlynn helped out with the
Norse Star student newspaper and
kept busy with projects outside
of basketball, which Hockett said
makes him a unique, complete
individual.
Hockett added that Stoughtons
loss is Drakes gain.
I dont know if you can replace
a Nick McGlynn, Hockett said.
I dont know if I will ever coach
another player like him. There
will never be another Nick McGlynn in the Stoughton basketball
program, and I have been blessed
and am honored and privileged to
be around him and to be able to
coach him.

you was, I love you. Be at
peace, Dear Daddy, and be
kind. Your daughter, Suzie
Woodstock Forman.

Obituary

William Emmet Chritton,


Jr., 95, of Stoughton passed
away peacefully on Saturday, March 28, 2015, surrounded by loving family.
Bill, or Emmet as he
was known growing up,
was born at home on April
12, 1919, in Stoughton to
William E. Chritton, Sr.
and Gertrude A. (Williamson) Chritton.
Bills family was loving but of humble means,
and he recalled how he and
his brothers went barefoot
all summer so the family
could save on shoes.When
Bill was 17, his father was
injured on the job at the
local highway trailer factory, so Bill worked for a
time in his fathers place
at the plant to keep food on
the table for his family.
After graduating as high
school class president and
captain of the debate team,
Bills father took out a loan
so Bill could attend the
University of Wisconsin
in 1937. About this time,
Bill began to lose most of
his hearing. Although this
caused him to wear a bulky
hearing aid until he had corrective surgery in 1958, Bill
graduated Phi Beta Kappa
from the UW with a degree
in education, becoming a
high school teacher in Lake
Mills and later in Marinette.
One summer between his
teaching jobs, Bill began
attending the University
of Wisconsin Law School,
where he later would graduate in 1945 at the top of
his class and editor of the
law review. After practicing with a law firm in La
Crosse, Bill returned to
Stoughton in 1946 to form a
law partnership, Thompson
& Chritton, with local state
politician Carl Thompson.
It was a humble beginning,
as Bill recalled, with the
two lawyers sharing a single desk.
Bill later went out on his
own as a lawyer, practicing
law continuously until age
92, when he finally began
to turn away new business
and wind down his practice.
During that time, Bill also
served as Stoughton city
attorney for 27 years and as
a director of First National
Bank of Stoughton for 31
years.
Bill believed in giving his
clients good service, helping those who needed it,
and in carrying out his work
thoroughly and with honesty.It was important to him
as well to help the community, and with Bills guidance several clients established substantial scholarship funds for students of
local schools.
I loved practicing law
in Stoughton, he said.
Bill met the former Laura

followed politics closely and he voted in every


election. He read several
daily newspapers, and
often kept a radio by his
side at home tuned to his
favorite news station. In
later years, he was an
avid watcher of C-SPAN.
Bill believed in exercise.
For most of his life as a
lawyer in Stoughton, he
walked the one mile to his
office rain, shine or snow
as well as walking home
for lunch, plus taking an
evening walk. Until a year
before his death, he was
still riding an exercise bike
each day at home, while
reading the New York
Times, as well as doing sit
ups.
Bill was a largely private
man, and his family meant
everything to him. In 1959,
he and Laura bought a summer cottage on nearby Lake
Kegonsa, the first order
of business for which was
to install indoor plumbing.The cottage became the
focus of the Chritton family
over the years, and in his
last years Bill still enjoyed
coming out to the lake to
sit on the porch of the family cottage.
Bill is survived by his
four children, Nancy (Russ)
Hellickson, Bob (Nancy)
Chritton, Ken (Pat) Chritton
and Phil (Zhinong) Chritton; eight grandchildren,
Elizabeth (Greg) Lucas,
Mary (Keaton) Anderson,
Karen (Jason) Bogenrife,
John, Michael, Theodore,
Monica and Thomas; and
eight great-grandchildren,
Brooke, Alexa, Blake,
Brett, Owen, Emma, Landon and Callum.
He was preceded in death
by his parents; his wife,
Laura; and his brothers,
Marion Charlie Chritton,
Lyle Chritton and Rodney
Chritton.
A visitation was
held Wednesday, April
1,at Cress Funeral Home,
206 W. Prospect Avenue,

Stoughton, with a funeral


service Wednesday afternoon.
Burial followed at Riverside Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, the
family welcomes memorials to the Laura E. Chritton & William E. Chritton
Scholarship Fund for students of Stoughton High
School. Donations may
be made to the Madison

William Emmet Chritton

Elizabeth Crump of Lake


Mills after the two were
introduced by Lauras
younger sister, a student
Bill taught at Lake Mills
High School. Bill and Laura
married in 1948, and the
young couple settled down
in Stoughton to start a family, where they raised four
children. They were married for 63 years, until Laura passed away in 2011.
I had a good life,
Bill said recently, But
I wouldnt have had a
good life without Laura.
Bill always had a quick wit,
and kidding and horseplay
were staples of the Chritton
family.
Bill was also a man of
many interests. He was a
drummer in a band in his
early years, and enjoyed
listening to jazz, which
was the sound of his youth
in the 1930s, and in later
years, opera.
Bill took several botany
courses at the UW and held
a lifelong passion for growing tomatoes, squash and
other vegetables in his garden.
Bill loved airplanes,
becoming hooked as a boy
when he paid a barn storming biplane pilot a hard
earned dollar to take him on
a flight over the local countryside. He later got his
own pilots license in the
1950s, and owned and flew
a single engine airplane
with friends at Stoughtons
small grass airfield.
Bill was fascinated with
U.S. history and loved traveling the United States by
car, often taking his children to Civil War battle
fields, Washington, D.C.
and other historical sites
across the country. As he
traveled, it was his hobby
to visit local county court
houses, sometimes stopping
to listen to court hearings in
progress, fascinated by the
local accents and ways of
doing things.
Throughout his life, Bill

NOTICE OF
REFERENDUM ELECTION
APRIL 7, 2015

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN, that


at an election to be held in the several
towns, villages, wards, and election districts of the State of Wisconsin, on Tuesday, April 7, 2015, the following question
will be submitted to a vote of the people
pursuant to law:
2015 ENROLLED JOINT RESOLUTION 2
To amend section 4 (2) of article VII
of the constitution; relating to: election
of chief justice (second consideration).
Whereas, the 2013 legislature in
regular session considered a proposed
amendment to the constitution in 2013
Senate Joint Resolution 57, which became 2013 Enrolled Joint Resolution
16, and agreed to it by a majority of the
members elected to each of the two
houses, which proposed amendment
reads as follows:
SECTION 1. Section 4 (2) of article
VII of the constitution is amended to
read:
[Article VII] Section 4 (2) The chief
justice of the supreme court shall be
elected for a term of 2 years by a majority of the justices then serving on the
court. The justice so designated as chief
justice may, irrevocably, decline to serve
as chief justice or resign as chief justice
but continue to serve as a justice of the
supreme court.
Now, therefore, be it resolved by
the senate, the assembly concurring,
That the foregoing proposed amendment to the constitution is agreed to by
the 2015 legislature; and, be it further
Resolved, That the foregoing proposed amendment to the constitution be
submitted to a vote of the people at the
election to be held on the first Tuesday
in April 2015; and, be it further
Resolved, That the question concerning ratification of the foregoing proposed amendment to the constitution be
stated on the ballot as follows:
QUESTION 1: Election of chief
justice. Shall section 4 (2) of article VII
of the constitution be amended to direct
that a chief justice of the supreme court
shall be elected for a two-year term by a
majority of the justices then serving on
the court?
EXPLANATION
The Wisconsin constitution currently provides that the chief justice

LEGALS continued on page 17

ConnectStoughton.com
From LEGALS/page 16
of the Wisconsin Supreme Court is its
longest-serving member. The proposed
constitutional amendment would instead select the chief justice through
an election by a majority of the justices
then serving on the Court.
A yes vote on this question would
mean that the chief justice shall be elected for a term of two years by a majority of the justices then serving on the
Wisconsin Supreme Court. The justice
who is elected may decline to serve as
chief justice or resign the position, but
still continue to serve as a justice of the
Wisconsin Supreme Court.
A no vote would mean that the
longest-serving member of the Wisconsin Supreme Court serves as chief justice of the Court. The justice designated
as chief justice may decline to serve as
chief justice or resign the position, but
still continue to serve as a justice of the
Wisconsin Supreme Court.
