Private Roads Committee: The Town of West Bend is organizing a “Private Roads Committee” beginning in September. First meeting will be Spring 2025. The Committee objective will be focused on the development of a new ordinance designed to regulate the maintenance, improvements and safety of all private roads within the Town of West Bend. Individuals interested in volunteering for this committee are asked to be property owners along a private road within the town. Depending on the number of committee volunteers, we could end up limiting the number of participants from each road to ensure that all private roads can be represented. Individuals interested in volunteering, please contact Julie Ihlenfeld at the Town Hall. Thank You for your interest.

Mother nature has blessed the Town of West Bend with six beautiful lakes. The largest three of these lakes, Big Cedar, Little Cedar and Silver, each have Protection and Rehabilitation Districts (PRD). Gilbert Lake is connected to Big Cedar Lake and is thus part of that PRD. Big Cedar flows east to Little Cedar, which then empties to the southeast towards the Milwaukee River. Silver Lake flows north into Paradise Lake which in turn flows into Lucas Lake. Lucas Lake, bordered by Ridge Run County Park, empties into a stream that flows through the City of West Bend and into the Milwaukee River at Regner Park.
