DEPARTMENT OF
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
Ne are �riting as the tar.pay�rs !�ho own the property on either side
of Lake Street where it meets the Fox River, south of Bay Shore Drive. We
have a fair and positive proposal.
Years ago, when Oshkosh was a much different place, some city street
crew took it upon themselves to lay a little asphalt on the end of Lake Street
in order to create a makeshift boat ramp. There were very few, or perhaps no
other public places at the time to launch boats. For that matter, there were
few boats and most of them were small.
Now, however, we have fine municipal boat launching sites at
Menominee, Steiger, Rainbow Parks and the 24th Street facility. These have
toilet and waste disposal facilities. They have ample parking for the cars
and the large trailers which are needed for the boats which people now prefer.
They have adequate security and safety lighting, and they have docks that
pecple can use to safely get into and out of their boats.
The Lake Street alley between our houses surely must be a nuisance
now. City crews must spend time and money on mainienance and litter pick up.
It is a popular hangout for vandals. As something of an attractive nuisance,
it probably represents a disproportionate liability risk.
There does not appear to be any other street or alley in the City
which is kept in this way. 3vat traiiers anu ca�s often blotk cff Qay Shore
and Lake Street as they jockey around getting positioned in the alley. The
streets are inadequate for this now. In addition both streets often become,
in effect, one-lane roadways as cars and trailers park on both sides of the
streets after launchings.
As the boats have become bigger, and their number have increased,
the actual boating season has grown longer. We now have launchinqs occurring
from 4:30 in the morning around the clock until midnight virtually from ice-
out to freeze-up.

RESOLUTION # 17
Mr. Willia, Frueh
City Manager Page -2-
Oshkosh, WI February 12, 1986
We have imposed on us constant problems of litter and security.
Our yards are used for toilet facilities. titter is a continual problem.
The ]ighthouse is a histor?c 13�dmark ih3t h85 been one of the
City's visual symbols since 1909. It is privately maintained and is taxed to
us by the City. It has been a source of pride, but now is almost a nuisance
to us. Stone-throwing and vandalism have made us reluctant to light it for
fear of what additional problems it will attract. As a result, we no longer
provide its navigational aid to boaters on the lake at night.
We ask that Lake Street be affirmatively abandoned as a launch
site. Remove the asphait. Plant it with grass, or make it more like the
other street endings on Bay Shore. In fact, consider abandoning it. We pay
over $9,000 per year in property taxes, but we would be pieased to pay.the
taxes on this strip if it were returned to private ownership.
