The city attorney said a central legal issue presented at argument was whether the city had standing and that opposing counsel argued the county's representation of placement decisions was sufficient. The city attorney described using a map prepared by the city's engineer, Mr. Amir, to show restricted areas within a 1,500-foot radius of the property at issue and said that line of argument \"seemed to be getting through to the judge.\" He characterized the oral argument as going \"as well as we could expect\" and said he was \"cautiously optimistic\" while noting the judge would take time to review the documents and schedule a written ruling.

The attorney said he would update the council when the court issues additional information. No action or vote was taken by the council on the litigation update.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Common Council Meeting - June 23, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","Glendale's city attorney told the council he attended oral argument in two court cases challenging the placement of offenders near Silver Spring Drive; the judge will issue a forthcoming ruling after reviewing documents.","taxTitle","Glendale, Milwaukee County, Wisconsin","taxId",70062,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6179945,"Council refers zoning changes to allow fitness studios and Bernie's Book Bank relocation to planning commission",245,702000,947000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5121915-d2a5e5c6cd8d7c3fd8b7b657546e0da3&start=702&end=947","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5121915-d2a5e5c6cd8d7c3fd8b7b657546e0da3/thumbnail_702000.jpg","/articles/6179945/Glendale/Milwaukee-County/Wisconsin/Council-refers-zoning-changes-to-allow-fitness-studios-and-Bernies-Book-Bank-relocation-to-planning-commission","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6179945-17b30aec592dc2862a29de0fe92c243c/orig.mp4?Expires=1776575185&Signature=m0Rdy9oxwp9iiHx1AWp4~KH7NcMM2Y9GPRPDZA0Q8KepzJoNWT3Go4ZfrhukPWIKhcGARODsdhxfZOb9MVK5YZfgYZ4SwK3ITTFga26UAq-F~ndcugRBJQ-LDqCS9vQL4COcDKOFFXHvSBdrRFwQEFUpvrBmYE4TBP7whQMwLrFS3P~gvRB2SHJ3oicMESDsg7QOwbjZ0cQ5YQSLjaDIszDowN1n8wveZIgfyUjXuSYarwB2mAJxNdGhq4y3b5Ahb-rH3JLHXMEuNgay3qyUrgKs7~GP-0NIRuINTqAzuJ286tQSjRBSl-5vHcIkMwU1WW~3Rf0Z~h50QK0xALN8Xg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Glendale Common Council unanimously referred a zoning text amendment to the Planning and Architecture Review Commission that would create a new defined use for \"fitness activity studio,\" permit certain business-office and light-manufacturing accessory uses in the B‑1 C‑1 district and consider relocation requests from two businesses.

Staff said Bernie's Book Bank, a nonprofit, seeks to locate at 5235 Ironwood, and that a current occupant (La Casa) has been purchased by a private equity company; the proposed amendment would permit general business offices with accessory uses including light manufacturing not exceeding 60% of a building's gross floor area in the B‑1 C‑1 district. Separately, Top Line Gym seeks to relocate from 2012 West Bender to 2345 West Mill in the B‑5 district. Staff said a new, defined use for \"fitness activity studio\" is proposed because similar uses currently are allowed only through other classifications in the S‑1 district or as private clubs.

Alderman Vukovich asked about tax consequences when a nonprofit occupies property owned by a private entity; staff said the Department of Revenue rules require the property to be owned and operated by a nonprofit to qualify for exemption and that staff would double-check the tax status. Staff also said that properties owned by a nonprofit but not operating in the nonprofit use may still be taxable.

A motion to refer the text amendment to the Planning and Architecture Review Commission was moved by Alderman Doherty and seconded by Alderman Vukovich. The council will hold a public hearing on any amendment that returns to them per city code; the item was referred by voice vote.","The council referred a zoning text amendment to the Planning and Architecture Review Commission to create a \"fitness activity studio\" use, allow a new business (Bernie's Book Bank) at 5235 Ironwood, and accommodate Top Line Gym's proposed relocation to a B-5 district.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6179950,"Council establishes Glendale youth council for 9th–11th graders",104,583000,687000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5121915-d2a5e5c6cd8d7c3fd8b7b657546e0da3&start=583&end=687","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5121915-d2a5e5c6cd8d7c3fd8b7b657546e0da3/thumbnail_583000.jpg","/articles/6179950/Glendale/Milwaukee-County/Wisconsin/Council-establishes-Glendale-youth-council-for-9th11th-graders","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6179950-df03b621e01cdff739a87f1f5e1643a6/orig.mp4?Expires=1776575185&Signature=J5Gj9Ej-in3bD-58mvrVTig0NdUnUl9REjPOw9HJ5JMEA6Lv60EqpEtG0z1pz8CK9wWtmtQExCNcp-9cCVmQAbsOzo~MWWOftR~uTu~SV92I3D6bb73gKlmXoFMk170gR-vF-Z8P8~b3rdt3QP~PAuIXIZXWOtMB61~oiwShHqbLzt5NdItyE6aAEkBcF9p1EWnrixIzzLjPPKk0nh1wetCHdj3QLRF-iQyz~WUsIqHv8Y99moCS8bruIoX7-V2yGwgnPacVNOxGp0owBftuxEiEAUQESUDWluHf-3OZjFznD4beKBJdohoT8kvuDxBg2ehSFo~7~A-YOXTw55~2PA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Glendale Common Council voted to establish a city youth council made up of ninth- through eleventh-grade students who would meet monthly and report to the mayor and council.

The youth council is intended to create a formal channel for high-school–age residents to raise issues that matter to them and to give council members periodic reports on youth perspectives.

Mayor Eric Kennedy said he discussed the idea with mayors of nearby municipalities and with Dr. Kabara at Nicolet High School, who supported the idea. Students would apply through Nicolet and other local schools; when applications are received, each alderman would select one student from their district. \"Doctor Kabara is working right now to find an adviser at the school who would advise them,\" Kennedy said; he added that, if no adviser is available initially, he would advise the council temporarily to help it get started.

Alderman Gellhard moved to approve establishing the youth council and the application; Alderman Doherty seconded. The motion passed by voice vote.

Council members noted other municipalities in Milwaukee County (including Wauwatosa, Oak Creek and the city of Milwaukee) have similar youth commissions. Staff will execute the application process and notify aldermen when candidates apply.","The Glendale Common Council authorized a city youth council to give ninth- through eleventh-graders a forum to discuss local issues and report back to the mayor and council; aldermen will each appoint a student from their district.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6179954,"Council approves $25,000 payment to authors of Glendale 70th-anniversary book",70,460000,530000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5121915-d2a5e5c6cd8d7c3fd8b7b657546e0da3&start=460&end=530","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5121915-d2a5e5c6cd8d7c3fd8b7b657546e0da3/thumbnail_460000.jpg","/articles/6179954/Glendale/Milwaukee-County/Wisconsin/Council-approves-25000-payment-to-authors-of-Glendale-70th-anniversary-book","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6179954-2c815c146f461f4b771fcb9b78681d3b/orig.mp4?Expires=1776575185&Signature=fQMr0obX8XxdHMUmYJ~9vHEtS3kg67TYFi0aINCBQjCRpU6BEQplsUFwb6IZ6nzmUFnHCKMbjDTewEBupEwh28B-pgwQfLBnZq3caCKn9S-DDUc~zT2G6VZUrvJIWclIDITClEGKaVaSqVcFm2-AQTeW1N3Ly3tEotRxC7eZujfC5lye506qKBrKpjlveuUfA25bIkFx7JcMMun6PRXDljTQXb6JUstnwLWryJ9-mtUchL0YTavIoAkvsgGj-QMuyj1nNn~~fpFFMN47UvWOAG30cHA45VB1TbaN8Z2dJ6AOObY4iWn6MPq3UBqQs5mfr60hN-iwRzf-fCN-oOkt8Q__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Glendale Common Council approved a $25,000 payment to the authors and committee that produced the city's 70th anniversary book, allocating $10,000 to lead writer Amanda Seligman and $5,000 to each of the other committee members.

Council members said the payment recognizes substantial volunteer time invested in writing and preparing the book; the costs are expected to be recouped through future book sales.

City staff told the council the project budget for printing, publishing and related costs was roughly $60,000–$65,000 and that the $25,000 approved at the meeting was for author payments only; printing was previously contracted by the council. \"The total budget for the printing, publishing, and everything for the book was about $65,000,\" a staff member said. Council members confirmed that prior approvals covered printing and that the present motion was to compensate the authors.

Alderman Shaw moved to approve the payment; Alderman Doherty seconded. The council voted in favor. The motion carried.

Council members said they expect the book to break even once printing costs and author payments are recouped through sales. Staff did not provide a schedule for reimbursement from sales or a sales projection beyond the budget estimate.","Glendale approved $25,000 to pay authors of a 70th anniversary book, allocating $10,000 to lead author Amanda Seligman and $5,000 to other committee members; the city expects to recoup the payments from book sales.",{"_33":112,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":113,"_41":114,"_43":115,"_45":116,"_47":117,"_49":118,"_51":119,"_53":120,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":121,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":122,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6179960,"Glendale council approves liquor-license renewals contingent on fire and administrative compliance",191,143000,334000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5121915-d2a5e5c6cd8d7c3fd8b7b657546e0da3&start=143&end=334","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5121915-d2a5e5c6cd8d7c3fd8b7b657546e0da3/thumbnail_143000.jpg","/articles/6179960/Glendale/Milwaukee-County/Wisconsin/Glendale-council-approves-liquor-license-renewals-contingent-on-fire-and-administrative-compliance","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6179960-f55ccff9faa318e6290202393fb508b8/orig.mp4?Expires=1776575185&Signature=hWRx-vhK9C6UxZAo2XzL48W4ImQkxd3BH0-VNAzaK-gCwrcJCcXfR-oPlkeOiKQsXc4eIEmCEM1hGhxVRR6psuK17q4UJCBTzT-BLy0wJFL-6rmfSfqsa36pYGBo~YjRJL23pdXAhZirQefTE4b-RibxsPD7lLAJtaJd8z6ZKI8C0EaWnj0Oi3ZokIgL3~k8oKWpClYpqi23DDk-HFWhPHsRpmAeIUZHY3Dw6zF2ylqbJRJ3b~iJQPyq99oSXGQroZnZrSbsNe7RH2MDMoL9WSUzSzGr8veRhTrV7k50Sz~S0m1eTsYkPGRqGrRDi60dz9E2DBoAr0uW7WacnC4h0w__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Glendale Common Council voted to approve alcohol beverage license renewals for the 2025–26 licensing year but made several approvals contingent on businesses resolving outstanding compliance issues by June 30.

Council action matters because businesses that fail to clear fire-safety or administrative deficiencies by midnight June 30 will not be permitted to serve alcohol on July 1 unless they come into compliance.

Staff presented the renewals and told the council that most applications were routine renewals but that several businesses had unresolved items with the North Shore Fire Department and one business had not provided required agent information. \"If they don't do that by June 30 at midnight, then July 1, they can't serve alcohol,\" said Carl, city staff, summarizing the city's practice for contingent approvals. The licenses, if approved, would run from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026.

Aldermen discussed enforcement and process. Alderman Shaw asked who would check whether noncompliant businesses were serving; staff said enforcement would fall to city staff if violations arose. Staff also explained that the city clerk can withhold a license administratively for unpaid fees, unpaid forfeitures or unpaid taxes, but that suspension or revocation for non-administrative reasons requires due-process procedures under applicable law and council policy.

The motion to approve the alcohol beverage license applications as recommended by the Legislative, Judiciary and Finance Committee, \"subject to becoming in compliance\" for those with outstanding issues, was moved by Alderman Doherty and seconded by Alderman Gellhard. The council voted in favor; the motion carried.

Council members noted that a small number of renewals historically arrive with outstanding North Shore Fire issues and that the city typically withholds service privileges until inspections or remediation are completed. Staff advised the council they would follow established procedures when enforcement or withholding is necessary.","The Glendale Common Council approved renewed alcohol beverage licenses for the 2025–26 licensing year, with approvals contingent on businesses meeting outstanding fire-safety and administrative requirements by June 30.","actionData","errors"]
