Welcome to Dane County2013 WCA Annual ConferenceExhibition Hall at the Alliant Energy Centerof Dane CountySeptember 22-24, 2013

Joe Parisi, County ExecutiveDane County

On behalf of Dane County, its citizens and businesses I welcome you to the 2013 WCA Annual Conference. We are

excited and honored to be hosting representatives from Wisconsin’s diverse landscape to share ideas, forge relationships and discover new ways to collaborate.

The “Wisconsin Idea” – a sharing of ideas between the university

system and state government in an effort to advance good public policy – was born in Dane County. What better embodiment of this philosophy than a gathering of those at the front lines of service delivery in the seat of state government to solve problems and improve the lives of those we serve.

Dane County is excited to highlight its expansive park system, advanced phosphorous run off reduction efforts and effective human services delivery. We all have much to share and much to learn from one another.

I encourage you to explore everything Dane County has to offer during your visit. From our picturesque and productive agricultural lands, to our thriving suburbs, to our abundant parkland, to the free Henry Vilas Zoo, to Madison’s bustling and growing urban center and its food, music and entertainment venues, Dane County has something for everyone.

I know you will enjoy your time in Dane County and please keep us in mind the next time you are thinking of a vacation getaway.

John Hendrick, ChairDane County Board of Supervisors

On behalf of the Dane County Board of Supervisors, I am pleased to welcome you

to our county for the 75th WCA Annual Conference.

We are proud to host the conference and to share some of our recent initiatives and innovations in delivering government services to Dane County residents. Over the past several years, Dane County has pursued the goal of becoming more environmentally, socially and economically sustainable in its planning, operations, management and policymaking. We have hired a sustainability coordinator in the county board office.

Some examples include:•Converting county landfill gas to electricity,

generating $3.75 million in gross revenues for the county;

•Using compressed natural gas (CNG) in county fleet vehicles, offsetting the use of approximately 20,000 gallons of fossil-fuel gasoline and saving county taxpayers roughly $40,000 annually;

•Completing renewable energy and energy conservation upgrades at county facilities, such as: LED runway lights and solar panels at the Dane County Regional Airport; geothermal technologies at the Badger Prairie Health Care Center and the Children’s Zoo Barn; and manure digesters that generate renewable electricity and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Last year, the county board adopted sustainability principles to be applied systematically and strategically across departments with the goals of reducing and eventually eliminating Dane County government’s contribution to: 1) fossil fuel dependence and wasteful use of scarce metals and minerals; 2) dependence upon persistent chemicals and wasteful use of synthetic substances; 3) encroachment upon nature and harm to life-sustaining ecosystems; and 4) conditions that undermine people’s ability to meet their basic human needs.

To address that fourth principle, we are focused on creating jobs and addressing poverty. We have an Office of Economic and Workforce Development and this year we created and I have appointed a Poverty Commission.

We look forward to sharing our experiences and learning from the experience of other counties in all areas of local government responsibility. WCA provides us with a forum to come together and share both our successes and our challenges. I anticipate an open and lively exchange of ideas. Welcome to Dane County!

2013 WCA MARKETPlACEThe companion event to WCA’s 2013 Annual Conference is the WCA Marketplace. Among the displays of products and services will be familiar vendors that counties have come to rely on, as well as those offering new products and services to help meet the expanding demands of governing Wisconsin’s counties. Held in the Exhibition Hall at the Alliant Energy Center of Dane County, the WCA Marketplace features a lunch and reception on Monday. All conference attendees are invited to attend these events. We will again have the WCA Marketplace Cyber Café, graciously sponsored by PMA Financial Network/Forecast5 Analytics/WISC, to allow easy access to the internet.

The marketplace is an opportunity to inspect and discuss with vendors the goods and services that can greatly improve the way your county serves its people. The exhibitors and sponsors listed on the following pages are those who, by press time, had confirmed their sponsorships and exhibit registrations for WCA’s Marketplace and Conference.
