A copy of the plan was provided to each municipality in Sauk County for their review, comment, and creation of wards. The municipalities have provided to the County their proposed wards. On November 16th, 2021 the County held a public hearing on the proposed final county supervisory redistricting plan. The County has determined which wards belong in the individual Supervisor Districts as set forth in the Ordinance Amendment below. Attached as Exhibit A is a map depicting the final Supervisor districts.  Said map shall be available in the County Clerk’s office for review by the general public.
