Twin Lakes Stormwater Project Built Illegally Without DNR Permit: Village Engineer Takes Blame, But Emails Raise Questions About Who Knew What And When
TWIN LAKES, Wis. — A stormwater construction project in the Village of Twin Lakes, originally estimated to cost $67,485, was completed without the required Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) permit, in violation of state law, according to a DNR official.
