Oral arguments delayed in Forestville Dam Millpond lawsuit

The legal proceedings concerning the lawsuit issued by the Friends of the Forestville Dam against Door County were rescheduled in circuit court on Tuesday.

 

Attorneys representing both parties agreed to delay oral arguments in the case since Door County Circuit Court Judge D. Todd Ehlers did not have an opportunity to review the briefs submitted by both sides prior to the 3 pm hearing.  The oral arguments will be made now at 3 pm on Thursday, December 16 with a summary judgment being made after that by Judge Ehlers.  A summary judgment is granted when the facts can be decided without the need to go to trial.

   

The Friends of the Forestville Dam filed suit against Door County in January seeking an order that would mandate the county to maintain the millpond at a historic water level of 592 feet above sea level.  The millpond was drained in early September starting in 2019 and was refilled late this fall.
