The Joint Extraterritorial Committee ("Joint Committee") shall
be created as provided by § 62.23(7a), Wis. Stats.
The Joint Committee shall possess the powers and duties prescribed
in § 62.23(7a), Wis. Stats., and such other powers and duties
as shall be vested in it from time to time by the Village Board.
The Joint Committee may adopt rules governing its own proceedings.
The Joint Committee shall make a full report in writing to the Village
Board and the Town Board of its transactions and expenditures, if
any, for the preceding year, with such general recommendations as
to matters covered by its prescribed duties and authority as may to
it seem proper. This annual report shall be filed with the Village
and the Town no later than March 1 of each year.
The Joint Committee shall elect a Chairperson and Secretary
and shall keep a written report of its proceedings, to include all
actions taken, a copy of which shall be filed with the Village Administrator
and Town Clerk. Four members shall constitute a quorum, but all actions
shall require the affirmative approval of a majority of the members,
except for decisions on perfunctory matters which shall require a
majority vote of those present and voting. (That is, of the six members,
four members are the majority. It will take four votes for approval
by the majority. If only four members are present, all four must agree
for approval to be effective.)
The Joint Committee shall utilize the services of existing Village
and Town officials and employees.
The Joint Committee shall act upon all such applications on
which it is authorized to act by the provisions of this chapter within
the next two meetings but not more than 90 days from when the application
is filed in full compliance with all the applicable requirements.
The Joint Committee shall either recommend issuance of a zoning permit
within such time period or notify the applicant in writing of its
refusal of such permit and the reasons therefor. Failure to notify
the applicant within such time period shall result in a refusal of
a zoning permit unless the applicant consents to an extension of time.
