Municipal Engineering Services for Smaller Towns and Villages
Beaver Dam, Wisconsin
Kunkel Engineering Group is a municipal engineering consulting firm serving municipal clients throughout south central Wisconsin. We are located in Beaver Dam, just one hour from Milwaukee, Madison, and the Fox Valley.
We understand that smaller communities are not immune to big problems.
The challenges presented by growth, community development, aging facilities and dated technology are not limited just to burgeoning cities. Smaller communities, however, function with more limited resources.
We are engineering consultants with more than 25 years of experience helping Wisconsin communities overcome big challenges.
Think of us as your city engineer... without the title or the benefits package.
"Building Relationships that Build Communities™"
Green Lake Daycholah Park
A stormwater runoff area extending into Green Lake from the corner of Lake and Illinois streets had become an eyesore and with pipes that emptied directly into the lake, a potential pollution hazard. The intent was to revitalize this small strip of land into an ecologically and resident-friendly park for use by any and all of the community’s citizens, but particularly for those without direct access to the lake.
Kunkel Engineering Group worked cooperatively with the City, the Park and Recreation Department and high school students to plan and design the park and to initiate a plan for reducing the release of potential pollutants into the lake.
Students installed charcoal filters in the storm water inlets at street level in an effort to filter pollutants from the runoff before it reached the lake, and Kunkel Engineering, with input from the City and the Park & Recreation Department, designed the park.
Completed, the park provides a gently sloping walkway that meanders through prairie grass and wild flowers toward the lake, ending at a concrete and stone overlook. Several benches were strategically placed along the walkway and on the overlook for residents to use in enjoying the park and the lake.
