Today's riddle: What do you get when you cross an angry cow with an angry sheep? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Communities reconsidering Flock cameras, The fight over beach access, Massive gift to the Kohler Arts Center (wpr.org) — A recent episode of Wisconsin Today spends significant time at Atwater Beach in Shorewood, unpacking the legal fight over whether people can walk along the Lake Michigan shoreline past the village-owned beach. Experts and local officials explain how a judge's ruling in favor of Shorewood resident Paul Florsheim reinforces public trust rights, and how communities statewide, from Door County to inland towns, are rethinking beach access, surveillance technology, and public land investments.
• Professor Emeritus Paul Florsheim Prevails in Lake Michigan Shoreline Access Case (uwm.edu) — A Milwaukee County judge has thrown out a trespassing citation issued to a man walking along Lake Michigan past Shorewood's Atwater Beach, ruling his shoreline stroll was protected under Wisconsin's public trust doctrine. While the decision applies directly to his case, it strengthens arguments that the public can use the wet sand area below the ordinary high water mark near Shorewood and could influence future shoreline access disputes statewide.
