Sex Offender Registry InformationVillage of Elm Grove Sex Offender Ordinance Sex Offender Residency Restriction MapIn 1997, the State of Wisconsin enacted the Sex Offender Registration and Community Notification Law. This law was created to monitor and track people convicted of sex crimes and to provide access to this information for police, victims and the general public. This Web site is designed to enhance public safety by making the information contained in the Sex Offender Registry easily accessible to the public. It will also serve to enhance public awareness about sexual violence in our communities and provide valuable information about the ways in which individuals and communities can protect themselves and those they love from acts of sexual violence. The hope is that this Web site may also, in some meaningful way, reduce future victimization and the suffering that accompanies it. At a minimum, the following are the Registry data items that are available to the public on all sex offenders in the Registry:
Visit the following Web site for more information: www.widocoffenders.org At this Web site, you can search by name (or alias) for information about individual registrants. You can also search by location for information about registrants who reside in a certain area. As of December 1, 2005, the site displays the current reported residence address of registered sex offenders who are in the community. Specific easy to follow search instructions are provided on the Sex Offender Registry Web site. WARNING: It is not the intent of the Wisconsin Legislature that this information be used to injure, harass, or commit a criminal act against persons named in the registry, their families, or employers. Anyone who takes any criminal action against these registrants, including vandalism of property, verbal or written threats of harm or physical assault against these registrants, their families or employers is subject to criminal prosecution.
FingerprintingThe Police Department provides fingerprinting services to residents and employees of businesses located in the Village of Elm Grove. Fingerprints can be taken at any time during the day, without an appointment, based on officer availability. The individual to be fingerprinted must present their own fingerprint card/s. A small fee will be collected at the time of printing, as defined by the Village's Fee Schedule adopted by Ordinance 8-6. Fingerprints taken as part of a Village permit requirement will use a police department provided fingerprint card, and no fee will be charged for this service.
Motorized Scooters & Play Vehicles on RoadwaysFor those who are not familiar, these are items being sold nationally, which resemble a metal skateboard with a “T” handle and a small electric or gas motor attached. They are capable of speeds of 20 mph and equipped with small hand brakes for stopping. The police department has surmised that they are "not legal to operate on city streets, public sidewalks and bike paths". Motorized scooters are motor vehicles under State Statute 340.01(35). The vehicles are self-propelled but do not fall under the same category as a motorbus, motorcycle, moped or motor bicycle. Under State Statute 341.10 (1) these vehicles cannot be licensed for highway operation because there intended purpose is not highway use. This statute also implies that they cannot be used on sidewalks because, sidewalks are generally within the boundaries of the highway. These vehicles can only be used on private property (property not open to the public). Offenders can be cited under State Statute 346.78 Play Vehicles Not To Be Used On Roadway. The Elm Grove Police Department understands that many parents are unaware that these vehicles are not street legal. The primary concern of the department is safety. Parents are advised to speak to their families about this finding, and advise their children not to operate them on public property.
Speed TrailerThe Police Department has a new tool to help drivers maintain proper speed while traveling through the Village. The “speed trailer” can be seen anywhere around town – main streets, side streets, or even Village Park. The purpose of the trailer is to warn drivers when they are going too fast and remind them to slow down for safety. What the speed trailer DOES do:
What the speed trailer does NOT do:
How the speed trailer works: The speed limit is posted at the top of the trailer. As a vehicle approaches, its speed is displayed in large, amber numbers below the posted speed limit sign. If the approaching vehicle’s speed is excessive, the amber numbers will flash and a white strobe will activate. The flash and strobe are meant to draw extra attention to the fact that you are exceeding the speed limit, and need to slow down. Do you know of a problem area where traffic seems to be traveling faster than the posted limits? Are you concerned about the safety of your neighborhood in relation to speeding vehicles? To request placement of the trailer, you can complete the form below and submit it for consideration. The trailer runs on battery, and once deployed, can operate for 5-7 days. The Police Department will fill the requests for placement, as the unit is available.

AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER ICE in your mobile phoneIn case of emergency : ICE Paramedics will turn to a victim's cell phone for clues to that person's identity. You can make their job much easier with a simple idea that they are trying to get everyone to adopt: ICE. ICE stands for In Case of Emergency. If you add an entry in the contacts list in your cell phone under ICE, with the name and phone no. of the person that the emergency services should call on your behalf, you can save them a lot of time and have your loved ones contacted quickly. It only takes a few moments of your time to do. Paramedics know what ICE means and they look for it immediately. ICE your cell phone NOW! The original concept, conceived by Cambridge
paramedic Bob Brotchie, involved putting the acronym ICE in front of your
designated emergency contact.
My phone doesn't show the callers name any more This will be because your ICE contact number is a duplicate entry of another contact in your phone book. If you have two numbers the same, your phone won't know which one to display so it will show just the number. To get round this, simply type a * after the number under your ICE contact. It will still work and will cure the caller-ID problem. Crime Stoppers
Phones are answered 24-hours a day. Call 1- 888- 441- 5505
