This event is part of a collaborative project between LWVWI and ASCE-WI to educate Wisconsin residents about ASCE's 2020 Infrastructure report card. Across Wisconsin, infrastructure grades range from D- to a B+, demonstrating a clear need to infrastructure improvements. There will be a total of four localized quadrant meetings and, with this event focusing on Wisconsin's northeast quadrant.

The event will include 30 minute presentations from Carl Sutter and William Holahan. Carl Sutter, P.E., is the society director for the ASCE-WI and will provide an overview of the Infrastructure Report Card. William Holahan, professor emeritus at the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee, will make a compelling case for why “now” is the right time to invest in sustainable infrastructure in Wisconsin.

Following the presentations will be a live Q&A session between the presenters and local stakeholders to allow for quadrant specific discussions.

After this series of introductory sessions across the state, LWVWI will host webinars on select infrastructure categories to serve as springboards for local advocacy for increased investment in sustainable infrastructure.
