While it's budget season in municipalities across the state of Wisconsin, it's a time for bickering in Lake Geneva.
Excerpt: Lake Geneva doesn't have a functioning city council, and nobody is sure about the next step.
Dan Thompson, executive director of the League of Wisconsin Municipalities, said Lake Geneva is in "relatively unusual" legal territory.
"There are all sorts of differences of opinion between mayors and council members… That's democracy. That part is not unusual," he said. "What we tend not to have as often is those differences of opinion being settled by a judge. But that appears to be where we are headed in this instance." (This is obviously Mr. Thompson's public response. Wouldn't you like to know what he really thinks?)
