History of Half Mile Bridge
Marise and John Redmann inherited Half Mile Bridge Farm in the early 1980s. They knew that the beautiful woods and meadows, dramatic land forms and peaceful marshes deserved, even demanded special, sensitive treatment and that much of the property should be preserved in a completely natural state.

Slowly, John and Marise reached a decision to begin to develop the property. They assembled an experienced development team: architect Henry Issacson, planner Ralph Bergman, contractors and consultants Paul Shefchik and Fran Shefchik of PortSide Properties, and real estate broker and consultant Tad Gilster of Coldwell Banker Door County Horizons.

The Redmanns' guidelines were simple: the development was to include high-quality buildings of innovative design, the project should meet the needs of those interested in either a year around Door County home or a splendid weekend or vacation retreat and that the sensitive environment should be preserved as unique wildlife habitat.

As the plan began a year and a half of development and refinement, the Redmanns also evaluated strategies for long-term stewardship of the most sensitive portions of the property. Though final arrangements are still pending, over 50 acres of woodland and marsh are permanently protected.

Managing Agent Information
To All Half Mile Bridge Condominium Unit Owners:

February 16, 2010

We have switched property managers. Door County Property Management has dropped its service to condominiums to concentrate solely on the management of rental properties. We will miss the services of Chad and Andy who have been watching over us since our formation.

After an extensive search we have hired Tim Bley as property manager and Richard Gnadt CPA as accountant. Tim will supervise and coordinate the maintenance of the condo facilities and grounds. Richard will be in charge of billing, paying bills, tax preparation, and keeping financial records.

The process of submitting work orders has not changed. Work orders can be found on the Half Mile Bridge Website. You can submit work orders to Tim via e-mail or postal mail. Postal mail should be sent to our new address listed below. Please submit your requests via the prescribed methods. Tim will not accept work orders via word-of-mouth or telephone! He will accept emergency telephone calls but please restrict them to true emergencies.

Quarterly billings and other mailed HMB correspondence will also use the new address.
