Boardman Clark Welcomes Stuart Mondschein, Rhea Myers, and William O’Connor

Boardman Clark is proud to announce the addition of three attorneys to the firm: Stu Mondschein, William O’Connor, and Rhea Myers, all formerly with the recently dissolved Wheeler Van Sickle & Anderson, SC law firm. Each bring prominent practices and many years of experience to Boardman Clark in their respective areas of law.

Stu Mondschein is a litigation attorney with many years of experience in general commercial and personal matters. He currently focuses on litigation related to stray voltage, as well as electrical distribution and transmission. Stu has been involved in scores of stray voltage investigations, suits, claims and trials in states across the United States.

Rhea Myers pursues and defends employment discrimination claims of all kinds – including before federal courts and the Wisconsin Equal Rights Division. In addition to his core labor and employment practice, he is an experienced litigator and has tried commercial litigation with thousands of plaintiffs.

William O’Connor has practiced law since 1979, focusing on water law (including riparian rights and water regulation), conservation, land use, local government, and nonprofit organization matters. He is particularly experienced in representing waterfront and recreational property owners, Land Trusts and Public Inland Lake Protection and Rehabilitation Districts.

“We’re thrilled to have Stu, Bill and Rhea join our team. They are proven attorneys respected in their fields, and their breadth and depth of experience will be a great addition to a number of our core practice areas,” Richard Heinemann, Chair of Boardman Clark’s Executive Committee, says.

Wisconsin’s Local Government Response to Hyper Scale Data Centers: An Overview

Municipal Law Newsletter | 08.25.26

Over the past two years, Wisconsin has become a focal point for hyperscale data center development. Projects associated with Microsoft, Meta, OpenAI, Oracle, Vantage, QTS, and other developers have generated billions of dollars in proposed investment and unprecedented demand for electric transmission, water infrastructure, and land development. The rapid pace and scale of these proposals has prompted responses from local governments across the state. As of yet, the responses have not led to a state-wide coordinated legislative approach, in contrast to neighboring states such as Minnesota. Instead, counties, cities, villages, and towns are experimenting with a wide range of regulatory and policy tools as they attempt to balance economic opportunity against concerns about growth, infrastructure, and local control.
