Why is the City of Lake Geneva so concerned about property they do not own? They do not own Hillmoor, they do not own Big Foot Beach State Park and it sounds like the Adams property still belongs to the Adams. A developer is to come to the City with a plan of what they would like to build and the City can say no to that plan. Just like they did with Michael Hanley from storage units to tiny homes.
That leads me to The City of Lake Geneva wants to develop any green space they can get their hands on, Even if it is owned by the State ( Big Foot Beach ) or Hillmoor. Michael Hanley has to provide his development with green space for the tiny homes. REALLY??? The same with bike paths too. All so the City does not have to take care of them? Well the City can not take care of the City itself. They never can keep up with snowplowing. The State of Wisconsin said there is enough traffic to put in the roundabouts, the City say’s there is not enough traffic to keep them mowed. Really?
