The Jefferson County Board meeting held on May 14, 2024, addressed several community concerns and announcements. The meeting began with an opportunity for public comment, during which a resident raised two key issues.

Firstly, the resident noted that Jefferson County is not listed on the Wisconsin ATV trails website, watv.org, and suggested that the Parks Department investigate this oversight. This comment highlights a potential gap in the county's recreational offerings and visibility for ATV enthusiasts.

Secondly, the resident mentioned that county employees expressed interest in being informed about items listed for sale on the Wisconsin Surplus website. This suggestion aims to enhance communication and accessibility for county staff regarding available resources.

Following public comments, the meeting transitioned to announcements. Meg Tirville Heights announced that the Midwest Fire Fest, typically held in July, will take place in June this year due to weather concerns. This event celebrates all things related to fire and promises an exciting experience for attendees.

Additionally, Mr. Weymayer shared information about the upcoming Law Enforcement Memorial Day ceremony scheduled for the following day at 11:30 AM on the front lawn of the Courthouse. This event, which honors local law enforcement, will include a formal ceremony with a speaker, taps, and a color guard. The public is invited to attend, weather permitting.

The meeting concluded with no further comments from the public, and a motion for adjournment was entertained. Overall, the meeting provided a platform for community engagement and highlighted important upcoming events in Jefferson County.
