The City of Waukesha's Board of Public Works convened on September 18, 2025, to discuss several key agenda items, including grant approvals, upcoming community events, and infrastructure updates.

The meeting began with a motion to approve the RAISE Grant Agreement, which was seconded and unanimously supported by board members. This grant is part of a larger funding initiative, with the city's portion amounting to $27,000, contributing to a total of over one million dollars in grants.

Following the grant discussion, the board addressed upcoming community events. A tour of the Clean Water Plant is scheduled for the next day at 10:00 AM, inviting residents to learn more about local water management efforts. Additionally, the board announced that information regarding leaf pickup will be released soon, as the fall season approaches. This year, residents can expect more detailed communication about their scheduled pickups, including tracking options on a map.

The board also provided updates on summer construction projects, noting that many are nearing completion. Silvernail Road is expected to reopen next week, which will significantly benefit local residents.

In response to a resident's comment about sewer maintenance on their street, board members acknowledged the ongoing efforts and the importance of community engagement in these operations.

Overall, the meeting highlighted the board's commitment to transparency and community involvement, with plans for improved communication regarding public services and infrastructure developments.
