Friends of Beach Road, Two Rivers Wisconsin

IMPORTANT UPDATE Regarding the Shorewood WI case. The municipal judge ruled against the Professor and the ticket he received for walking on this beach stands. We hope it goes to the Supreme Court now.

THIS IS WHY our access on Beach Road is extremely valuable - the full 60' wide strip IS YOURS! Where are the statute 236.16(3)a accesses in Shorewood?

Municipal judge rules against man challenging private beach access University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee professor Paul Florsheim is trying to take his case all the way to the Wisconsin Supreme Court to overturn a 1923 ruling.

DO YOU HAVE SUCH AN ACCESS IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD?
Statute 236.16(3)a reads:
All subdivisions abutting on a navigable lake or stream shall provide public access at least 60 feet wide providing access to the low watermark so that there will be public access, which is connected to existing public roads, at not more than one-half mile intervals as measured along the lake or stream..."

That is WHY Beach Road was created! These 60 foot wide parcels of land THROUGHOUT WISCONSIN were reserved for public use. These accesses are disappearing at an alarming rate due to situations exactly like ours. "Abutting neighbors encroach and slowly take over these precious public accesses."
