From City Hall
Maury Sullivan (pictured on left), Oconomowoc mayor announced that he is seeking re-election this coming April. The primary will be held this February 17th 2010. The mayor hopes to finish several initiatives that have started on his watch. The revitalization of the waterfront near city hall is just one of the projects that can change downtown Oconomowoc for the better. Currently discussions are still underway as to where the new train station will be located in the city for high speed rail. Additionally, Mayor Sullivan would like to see improvements with our city roads—and I couldn’t agree with him more on that. Much has been done lately especially with the reworking of the downtown area. Next year we should see the road project finished from the four corners west to the county line. 
In 1999 the Town of Summit and the City of Oconomowoc finalized their Border Agreement and as of December 31, 2009 several parcels that were in the Town of Summit will now be a part of the city. Several residences are involved in the assimilation to the city and when calculating taxes for the sake of a real estate transaction, it would be best to have those proration amounts agreed to in writing. Oconomowoc is ready for smart growth and with some of these projects we look forward to a bright future.
