History of the Chenequa Police Department tied to Village Incorporation
After World War I, better roads were built in the Milwaukee area. This fact, coupled with the increase in popularity of the automobile meant that the lakes of Waukesha County, which a few years earlier were impractical to visit on a Sunday outing, now became accessible as a recreational area for thousands of Miwaukeeans.
