After taldng testimony from interested parties, the Boazd of Appeals denied the application for variance. Plaintiff was notified of the Board's decision on January 22, 1996, by letter from the Deputy Zoning Administrator. This court's review is limited to whether the Boazd's action was decided under a correct theory of law and whether it xas arbitrary, oppressive or unreasonable and whether it was supported by the evidence. The burden to establish an unnecessary hardship is imposed upon the plaintiff. The plainaff failed to establish the existence of an unnecessary hardship. The decision of the Board is supported by substantial evidence in the record. T'he court concludes that the Sawyer County Zoning Boazd of Appeais proceeded on a coaect theory of law and that their decision was not arbitruy, oppressive or unreasonable _ . - . : • and was supported by substantial evidence. - ;,, � .

STATE OF WISCONSIN CIRCUIT COURT SAWYER COUNTY WILLIAM M. NEUMAN 125 Main Street Elroy WI 53929, Plaintiff, ANSWER AND vs. AFFIIi1��ATIVE DEFENSES Case Number 96-CV-14 SAWYER COUNTY ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS Sawyer County Courthouse 4Q6 Main Street Hayward WI 54843, Defendant. NOW COMES the defendant, Sawyer County Zoning Board of Appeals, by its attomeys, Weld, Riley, Prenn & Ricci, S.C., and as and for its Answer to the plaintiff's Complaint for Certiorari Review, it alleges and avows as follows: 1. That it will admit to the allegations of paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 of the Complaint. 2. That it will deny the allegations of paragraphs 7, 8 and 9 of the Complaint. AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSES As and for its affirmative defenses to the plaintiff's Complaint, the defendant alleges and avows as follows: 3. The burden of proof to establish an unnecessary hardship in accordance with §59.99(7)(c), Wis. Stats. is unposed upon the applicant in each such case brought before the Board, herein the plaintiff. The plaintiff failed to establish the existence of an unnecessary hardship as defined and applied by Wisconsin law. 4. Certiorari review of a decision of a zoning board of appeals or adjustment is to adhere to the rules governing common-law certiorari proceedings and [he scope of review is generally confined to the board's record. It not being necessary in accord with §59.99(10), Wis. Stats. for a proper disposition of the matter for this Court to take evidence, the scope of review should be lnnited to the record before the defendant board. In accord with the standards set forth in Klinger v. Oneida Counry, 149 Wis.2d. 838 (1989) the circumstances necessary to justify this Court's exercise of discretion to take evidence are not present. WHEREFORE this defendant prays that the Court dismiss the plaintiff's Complaint for Certiorari Review and that it award to the defendant its costs and disbursements.

Sawyer County Zoning Board of Appeals, 96 CV 14 Dear Robyn: Thank you for your letter and enclosures of February 26, 1996. You will please find enclosed the answer which I have filed with the Circuit Court in this matter. As you will observe,I have denied the three essential paragraphs of the Complaint asserting some form of wrong doing on the part of the Board. In addition,I have included several affirmative defenses to the effect that the burden of proof is upon the applicant and, additionally, that there is no justification for the Circuit Court to hold an evidentiary hearing in this matter to determine whether or not the Board's decision was correct as a matter of law. With respect to the materials which you sent to me I find that I have a question of you. You state that the file is an exact duplicate and is in the same order as the file prepared for the Circuit Court. Am I correct in understanding,as such,that the entire contents of the file which you sent to me was a part of the record before the Board of Adjustment? My question relates to the fact that in review of the transcript I note no reference being made to the various maps and other documents;however, this does not conclusively establish that they were not a part of the record. In accord with§59.99(10), Wis. Stats., we should submit to the Court only those items of documentary evidence which were presented to the Board, together with procedural materials, including but not limited to the application for the variance and the order emanating from the Board. Proceeding to my initial appraisal of the case I clearly don't see that the applicant presented any evidence whatsoever of an unnecessary hardship as defined by Wisconsin law. This statement notwithstanding, however, I would appreciate i[if you would send me a copy of your current zoning code which I might use as a basis of argument to the Court in this matter, relative to this concept, among others. From the transcript it is apparent to me that the Board afforded Mr. Neuman ever opportunity to present his case but that,realistically and honestly,he had no viable Weld,R�iley,Prenn 8 Ficci,S.C.

Having made this observation I might then inquire of you as to whether you have any information which would tend to substantiate the reason for Neuman's attorney to have alleged arbitrary and capricious action on the part of the Board. Is there something outside of the record that I should be aware of? Finally, you will please find enclosed a proposed cover sheet for the submission of the record to the Circuit Court in the form of an index to allow easy access to its contents. Look it over and if it appear to be accurate I would suggest submitting that together with the record. Please note that the reccrd should be filed with the Court no later than March 15, 1996.
