Summary

A Milwaukee Common Council committee confirmed five reappointments to Business Improvement Districts that oversee downtown and Deer District programming and placed a resolution to terminate and recreate the Menominee Valley BID on file, all by unanimous consent.

A Milwaukee Common Council committee on Monday confirmed five mayoral reappointments to the city's business improvement districts and placed a Menominee Valley BID resolution on file by unanimous consent.

Annette Adams was confirmed to Business Improvement District (BID) No. 21 after saying it "has been an honor for me to have a role with the BID 21, under Matt Doerner's leadership" and pledging to continue downtown events and partnerships. Alderman Moore moved her confirmation and the committee approved "hearing no objections."

Patricia Caitlin Khan (Patty) was reappointed to BID No. 21 and described the BID's work on homelessness, including a funded "homelessness coordinator" and an ambassador program that greets visitors, cleans streets and connects people who are unhoused to social services. Alderman Dimitrijevich moved approval and the committee confirmed her reappointment by unanimous consent.

Michael Beloit was confirmed to BID No. 53 (Deer District). Beloit cited prior work with the Milwaukee Bucks and cited programming such as a holiday market and upcoming St. Patrick's Day events. Alderman Jackson moved approval and the committee confirmed him by unanimous consent.

Jill Ingalls and Rich Lundt were also reappointed to BID No. 53. Ingalls said the young BID has focused on community engagement and driving visitors to the Deer District; Lundt, who said he's served since the BID's inception and oversees the Trade Hotel, described plans for new second-floor programming. Chambers and Moore moved those confirmations respectively and both were approved without objection.

Separately, the committee placed on file Resolution 240483, a measure described in the agenda as terminating Business Improvement District No. 28 (Menominee Valley) and creating a new Menominee Valley BID. Alderman Jackson moved to place the item on file and the committee approved by unanimous consent; no further debate or public testimony was recorded in the transcript.

The committee took the actions by voice unanimous consent rather than recorded roll-call votes. The meeting adjourned shortly after the items were completed.
