Local Government Law
The Wheeler firm was instrumental in the Wisconsin legislature’s adoption of statutory authority for the creation of inland lake districts, a special purpose unit of local government organized to rehabilitate and protect a specific lake and to fund activities such as dredging, weed harvesting and invasive aquatic plant removal.
Our attorneys represents a number of inland lake districts and sanitary sewerage districts in everyday governance, contracting, budget and fiscal matters, and lake management programs and planning, including dam management.
