Village of Bellevue, Wisconsin - A Great Place To Grow!

Sex Offender Restrictions

The Village of Bellevue currently has an ordinance in place aimed at protecting the health and safety of children in the Village from the risk that sexual offenders convicted of an offense against a child may re-offend in locations close to where children congregate.

The ordinance is located in the Village's Municipal Code Chapter 11.09 Public Health - Sexual Offender Restrictions.

As part of Municipal Code Chapter 11.09, an official map is maintained by the Village, showing Restricted Zones designated in Green and no Loitering Zones designated in Blue.  The Village updates the Restricted Zone Map annually to reflect changes. The map is available at the Village office or by downloading the following link:

Prescription Drug Drop-Off

The Brown County Sheriff's Department offers county residents the opportunity to properly discard prescription drugs at their new office, 2464 Development Drive. Drop-off times are held every Tuesday and Thursday from 12:30pm to 2:00pm.

Accepted materials include pills, liquids, salves, powders, inhalers and pet meds. No sharps or biological material. Collections are for Brown County Residents only and offered at no cost to participants.

Waste pharmaceuticals are a far reaching issue. These unused drugs present opportunities for environmental contamination, drug abuse and accidental poisonings. Proper disposal through collection events is necessary to insure the drugs are completely destroyed by incineration. Taking the easy way out and simply throwing your unused medications in the trash or flushing down the drain can lead to significant environmental problems.

Feral Cat Trap, Neuter & Return (TNR) Program

The Village of Bellevue has created a feral cat trap, neuter, and return (TNR) program in conjunction with Cats Anonymous. The TNR program is a humane way to control the feral cat population.  In this program, cats are humanely trapped, spayed/neutered, given a rabies shot and returned to their original location under the care of an individual called a caretaker.   Feral cats that have been spayed or neutered have a cropped ear like the cat pictured at left.

If you are caring for a feral/semi-feral, outdoor or barn cat and would like to participate in the TNR program, please contact the Animal Control/Humane Officer, Monica Hoff at the phone number listed below. The veterinarians at Cats Anonymous are volunteer veterinarians. To assist in covering the cost of medicine and anesthetics, Cats Anonymous suggests, but does not require, a $50 donation for cats participating in the TNR program.
