History of Scenic Wisconsin by Charles Mitchell

This anecdotal history is intended to provide a chronological account of the work and activities of
Citizens for a Scenic Wisconsin (CSW) undertaken in an effort to keep Wisconsin scenic. A big part
of the effort was resistance to laws promulgated by the outdoor advertising industry to allow
more and bigger billboards along highways.

CSW has endeavored to state its principles clearly in public and on a web site, year after year, to
advance scenic goals such as roadside beautification and preservation of iconic barns, and to
encourage public officials with responsibility for billboard regulation to limit billboard
proliferation.
