The Menomonee Falls Village Board rejected arequest to change the Land Use for a residential prop-erty at N88 W16943 Main St. Feb. 16.

Tate Boho had requested the Land Use componentof the village Comprehensive Plan be changed fromMedium Density Residential to Commercial Use. Bohorequested the change to allow for an orthodontist officeto be constructed at the site.

Trustee Steve Raymonds said the current buildingwas constructed in the late 1800s. Raymonds said near-by residents opposed the request at two separate public

hearings. Raymonds noted that all buildings on that sideof the street are residential."The neighbors around all said no and the Plan

Commission voted it down," Raymonds said.Village President Randy Newman said the commis-

sion felt it wasn't necessary to convert a residential areato commercial when there were other commercial prop-erties available in the village.

Approved: The board approved a request fromArthur Sawall to change the Land Use for a property onthe northeast corner of Stone Drive and Hampton Roadfrom Low Density Residential to Medium DensityResidential.

Raymonds said that there are two vacant lots at thesite. Sawall has offered the property to other develop-ers, to no avail. Instead of two houses at the site, Sawallis requesting the change to allow for two condominiumwith a total of four units. Access would be from Stone

ASK THE ADVISORASK THE ADVISORWhat Do Low Oil Prices Mean for Invest

As you’ve no doubt noticed, your trips to the gas station have been

pleasant these past several months. There’s not much doubt that lowhave been welcome to you as a driver. But when oil is cheap, is that goas an investor?

There’s no clear-cut answer. But consider the f ollowing effects of low• Positive impact on economy — When you spend less at the gas pumto recent years, what will you do with your savings? Like most peoprobably spend most of it on goods and services. If you multiply the your increased spending by the millions of other Americans who are money on gas, you can see that you and your fellow consumers are likbillions of dollars to the economy. Typically, a strong economy is also gfinancial markets — and for the people who invest in them.• Different results for different sectors — Different sectors within thmarkets may respond in different ways to low oil prices, even if the ovis generally positive. For example, businesses such as consumer goodsand auto manufacturers may respond favorably to cheaper oil and gapicture might be quite a bit different for energy companies.

You could spend a lot of time and effort trying to adjust your investfolio in response to low oil prices. In fact, you may well want to consulfinancial professional to determine which moves might make sense forvidual situation. Yet there’s actually a bigger lesson to be learned hoverreact to temporary developments. The recent decline in oil pricetainly had an economic impact, but no one can predict how long thesestay low or what other factors may arise that would affect the financia

That’s why you can’t reconfigure your portfolio based on particular evever they may be — oil price drops, interest-rate fluctuations, politicalat home, natural disasters in faraway lands, and so on.

If you can keep from being overly influenced by specific events, you mto gain at least two key benefits: First, by not making trades constanttion to the headlines of the day, you can avoid piling up heavy fees ansions —costs that can reduce the return rate on your investments. Secfind that if you aren’t always thinking about what’s going on in the woyou can focus your investment efforts more intensely on where you tomorrow. The most successful investors set long-term goals and donfactors they cannot control, such as oil prices, interest-rate changes ornomic events. Instead, these investors make adjustments, as necessarymodate changes in their goals as well as other changes, such as revislaws — but they basically stick to their same approach for the long ter

So be aware of low oil prices, but don’t get so "pumped" about themsludge up your consistent investment strategy — because that strateenergy to keep you moving toward your important objectives.

B Y REP. JANEL BRANDTJENThe constant hysteria that surrounds our

educational system in Wisconsin reflects acertain “entitlement class” that is clearlyprevalent across the county. It seems onlyWisconsin has a Governor willing to takeon the challenge of putting the educationalestablishment’s fantasy existence back toreality. A challenge long overdue.

Four years ago the Governor intro-duced his signature achievement ACT 10.Aimed at reducing the power that publicemployees had over their employers (i.e.the taxpayers) the measure set off an earthshattering response from the teachers union.The protests were large, loud and continu-ous. Teachers skipped school, called in sickto attend the daily riots and obtainedauthentic Doctor’s excuses from UW’sMedical staff, illegally I might add.

Students of UW-Madison filled the hall-ways of the Capitol and paid union protest-ers joined the fun and brought thousands ofpizzas with them. They broke into theCapitol with a little help from a fewDemocrat legislators that “forgot” to closetheir windows. Should I mention it wasFebruary so that cold breeze should havejarred their memories. They urinated in thehallways, intimated staff and blew air hornsinto the ears of Republican lawmakers. Ofcourse none of the students from the nearbycampus could have strung three coherentsentences together explaining what theexcitement was all about but that neverstopped a college party before.

That was four long years ago and withthe exception of the daily kooks singing

their ridiculous songs every day at noon(certainly a reminder of what happenswhen you allow the inmates to run the asy-lum) the only thing Wisconsin is experienc-ing with regards to Act 10 is public employ-ees have to actually kick in a little money fortheir still extremely lucrative benefit pack-ages. Please note that the end of the worldhas not come yet.

Now the Governor has really set theball rolling. $150 million in budget cuts andone would think the world is once againcoming to an end. 150 million dollarsseems like a lot, but it’s only 2.5percent ofUW’s SIX BILLION dollar budget. Now welearn that the UW system is sitting on 1.3 bil-

lion in cash! But wait that’s not all, the

increase in tuition that our families pay tosend their children to college in Wisconsinis astounding! For example to send yourchild to an undergrad program at a com-prehensive campus such as Oshkosh orStevens Point in 1992-93 the cost wouldhave been $1686. By 2012-13 the tuitionskyrocketed to $6723, the consumer priceindex averaged a mere 2.5 percent for theentire period.

This past weekend the UW establish-ment consisting of faculty, staff and students(obviously none of the students are awareof how much money they are costing theirfolks) took to protesting at the Capitol!

There were 500 hundred or so protest-ers according to the Associated Press whobraved the cold to show their disdain for

Governor Walker and his supposed “hitjob” on the UW system. Only five hundred?The unions must be out of pizza money.

Finally, the MacIver Institute has arevealing article this week demonstratingthe true nature of all government fundedentities. While the number of studentsattending the UW system declined by2,272 students from 2010 through 2014,the number of FTE’s (Full time equivalentemployee’s) rose by 1,284. I think a tuitionfreeze long past 2017 is in order. I’m alsoleaning against giving these “educators”any autonomy at all if their past inclinationto soak it to Wisconsin’s families is any indi-cation of their future behavior.

B Y THOMAS J. MCKILLENMANAGING EDITOR

The village of Menomonee Falls willreview whether or not to change the currentzoning ordinance related to raising chick-ens in the village.

The item was first discussed during aVillage Board Committee of the Wholemeeting Feb. 16. The item was placed on

the agenda at the request of trustees ChrisSmolik and Jeremy Walz.Smolik said he has heard comments

about the issue from residents and readnews reports about Milwaukee, Lannon,Waukesha and Brookfield allowing chick-ens to be raised. The current village zoningordinance limits raising chickens to proper-ties with a minimum of 35 acres.

“I don’t know why this limitation of 35

acres was placed, but we’re living in a timenow where people are sophisticatedenough to be able to take care of their dogsand their cats and along with that maybe afew chickens,” Smolik said.

Village President Randy Newman saidhe could considering coming down from thecurrent 35 acre requirement. However, hehad concerns about one suggested propos-al for allowing chickens on a quarter-of-an-

acre property.“I’d hate to see that in the neighbor-hood,” Newman said.

Village Manager Mark Fitzgerald saidif the village want to change the require-ment, it would have to go to the PlanCommission and Community Developmentstaff for a change in the text amendment tothe zoning code. A public hearing wouldbe held before the Village Board and the

commission would make a recommendationto the Village Board.

Fitzgerald said a change in the zoningcode wouldn’t be site specific, but indicatedthat the issue could generate attention andsuggested getting the word out any pro-posed change.

“This is one (issue) depending on theneighborhood, you’ll either hear strongadvocacy or very, very strong against,”

Fitzgerald said.Fitzgerald later added that issuesregarding the raising of chickens shouldlikely become a separate part of the zoningcode.

“The real issue is going to be what levelof density does it not become a nuisance,and that’s something we’ll have toresearch,” Fitzgerald said.

He said in instances where the village

has enforced the zoning code rethe raising of chickens, “the chickeperhaps the least of the problems, ity of other things and the maintethe yard were perhaps bigger issue

Trustee Steve Raymonds said of chickens in the village came wpast few years when a village asked about being able to raise chthe community. Raymonds said or

in Milwaukee and Madison saidchickens are to be allowed in a rearea, nearby residents have a “vetoand if they object the raising of would not be allowed.

“None of them have an ordinasays anybody who wants to do it wRaymonds said.

The board referred the mattePlan Commission for further review

Falls to examine ordinances related to raising of chicken
