A New Clerk - How Do We Get to There From Here?

  How do we get to there from here? So, two of the most critical employees in the Kronenwetter organization have in my opinion been very unwisely and crudely trash-canned as a sacrifice to the Joling/Davel ego-system. What is the administrative plan for recovery after what appears to be "mission accomplished"? Apparently nothing good, I'm afraid. The village clerk's 2-week notice was apparently wasted with no known preparation, no request for hand-off instructions, no knowledge of duties, no apparent management cares: nothing that indicates even a bit of administrative responsibility. Perhaps the idea is that no incompetence is too great that money can't fix it if enough is thrown at the situation. I said in the previous post that the last vestiges of a solid work ethic, integrity, and principles left in the office management walked out with the clerk on her last day. As if to prove me right, Admin Davel shut down the whole office to t...

Lies, Damned Lies, and Municipal Budgets

  Trust the Government?  A July 23 news article leads with the statement: WESTON — Weston trustees Monday approved a $6.7 million police headquarters minutes after one trustee said she felt completely misled about the need for the building.    In a comment on Nextdoor, a woman seemed a bit disillusioned upon hearing that the Weston Village president Mark Maloney effectively  lied about the upcoming need to build a new police HQ, just to avoid opposition to approval of a police department merger.    I hate to break the news to her and anyone else, but governments do lie . They lie to the public and as we have seen here they lie to each other.     At the federal level the Smith-Mundt Modernization Act of 2013 , was passed allowing domestic (that's you) propagandization by the federal government. You think you are hearing "news"that we are winning the war, you think you are hearing "the science" about Covid vacines, but you won't ...

Former Trustee Sandi Sorensen's August 3 Letter to the Board

    In case you missed this... Sandi was one of the three targeted people smeared in the investigation. Sandra Sorensen 1946 Deerwood Trail Kronenwetter, WI. 54455                                                                               August 3, 2026 Village of Kronenwetter  1582 Kronenwetter Dr. Kronenwetter, WI. 54455                                 Public Comment/Open Letter to the Village Board Village Residents and Board:    Due to the misinformation, disinformation, or just plain dishonesty emanating from the Village board and Administration I felt it necessary to set the record straight.          1.) Because I have told the truth in this matter,...

Lies, Damned Lies, and "Investigation" Reports

  As of September 4th the Village Clerk Jennifer Poyer is gone. Friday was her last day.      I believe that she took a long with her the last vestiges of a solid work ethic, integrity, and principles that remained in Kronenwetter Village management, outside of the Fire Department.    It seems as senseless to me as a cutting away the good parts of a country apple , and  keeping the core and worm-eaten remainder.     Mr. Davel's proclaimed "culture change" for the Village seems to be creating what the ancient Greeks termed a " Kakistocracy" .    Definition: A government run by the least qualified, most incompetent, or most corrupt individuals. Or in short - "the worst choice of people"    Clerk Poyer didn't just decide to leave, I believe she was methodically driven out by hostility, and passive and not-so-passive aggression of coworkers. Not to mention Mr Joling and Mr. Davel, who being Mr. Davel, appears to hav...

"The Investigation" Part 4 Davel Claims "Retaliation"?

      The much waited for "investigation report" has finally been released due to public pressure. In my opinion, if even half of the augmentation is true, this has been the most corrupt, dirty, bungled and just plain stupid waste of taxpayer money that I have ever seen in Kronenwetter. That is saying a lot.    I have posted 3 other articles on "The Investigation" Parts 1,2, and 2.5 weeks ago. I stand by every word of those, and much more coming now that the full report is available to the public.     The various future articles will be posted in no particular order, just as I get them written.  The statement has been put forth that   administrator James Davel claims publicly that the investigation was "retaliation" against him by former Trustees Charneski and  Sorensen over the sand mine issue. So, here is my reply to that:    I believe this accusation is likely his deliberate tactic to distract attention ...
