The Village Board is committed as a matter of public policy
that the protection, preservation, perpetuation and use of places,
areas, buildings, structures, and other objects having special, historical,
community, or aesthetic interest or value is a worthy cause and helps
promote civic pride and the general welfare of the Village and its
residents. When deemed appropriate by the Village Board, the Village
Board should consult with the Sauk Prairie Area Historical Society
or Friends of Sauk City History on matters concerning historical significance,
including any matter to consider the effects on historic properties
under Wis. Stats. § 66.1111(4), and should take any recommendation
it receives under advisement.
