Frederic board approves Family Days road closures and a Little Library at West Coon Lake Park
Summary
The Frederic Village Board approved road closures for Family Days 2025 requested for the Friendly Tavern and granted the Friends of the Library permission to place a Little Library at West Coon Lake Park, subject to Park Board input. Both motions carried at the April 14 meeting.
The Frederic Village Board voted April 14 to approve event and park requests for Family Days 2025.
Jeremy Mann requested temporary road closures tied to Family Days, seeking closure of Traffic Avenue by the Friendly Tavern from Friday at 6 p.m. to Sunday at noon and Oak Street from Wisconsin Avenue to Traffic Avenue on June 21, 2025 from 5 p.m. to 1 a.m. Brad Harlander moved to approve the Friendly Tavern27s requested closures and Duane Wisse seconded; the motion carried.
The board also approved a proposal from the Friends of the Library to place a Little Library near the playground at West Coon Lake Park, with Park Board input. Brad Harlander moved and Patty Swenson seconded approval; the motion carried.
Why it matters: the approved closures will alter traffic around the village center during Family Days, and the Little Library adds a community amenity at West Coon Lake Park pending Park Board coordination.
Next steps: the board indicated additional Family Days logistics will be discussed at a forthcoming community meeting and at the May board meeting to finalize event coordination.
