Loading...
Summary
At its April 2 meeting the Village of Hortonville approved a National Night Out scholarship fund, awarded several maintenance and sewer contracts, approved an IT/server purchase, and adopted temporary parking restrictions for Oak Street during Main Street detours (June 1–Aug. 31, 2026).
The Village of Hortonville board approved a package of administrative and public-works actions at its April 2 meeting, including a police-led scholarship fund, multiple service contracts for sewer and street maintenance, a server purchase for village IT, and a temporary no-parking plan related to Main Street reconstruction detours.
National Night Out Scholarship: Police staff proposed using National Night Out and related donation funds to create a $1,000 scholarship for a local high school senior and to sponsor recreation students in need. "We currently have about $14,000 that we've raised over the years through National Night Out," the police presenter said. Trustees approved creating the scholarship fund and charged officers and staff with an annual evaluation of the program’s viability.
Sewer and street contracts: The board awarded a sewer televising contract to Speed Clean Drain and Sewer for a quoted low bid of $9,241.98, and approved Precision Seal Cody for crack filling on Wildwood, Wildwind, Warner and North Oak streets at a low bid of $14,300, contingent on an updated certificate of insurance naming the village as certificate holder. For a recurring clog between the shop and a manhole, the board approved a slip-lining proposal from the low bidder (listed in the packet as Turks/Turrets/Turex Plumbing) at about $6,560.
IT/server contract and internship: The board approved a contract with the village’s IT vendor (EC3) for a new server and services at $15,001.49. Separately, trustees approved a summer administrator internship with the village contributing up to $2,500 and pursuing a matching WCMA grant if available.
Temporary parking and ordinance changes: Trustees adopted a revised temporary no-parking ordinance (O-02-26) that adds notification triggers and a 30-day submission requirement for event-related requests. The board approved a temporary Oak Street parking plan for the Main Street detour — allowing parking only directly in front of the high school — effective June 1–Aug. 31, 2026, with the option to revisit implementation if issues arise.
What comes next: Staff will obtain required insurance documentation for awarded contracts, implement the temporary parking signage and notification plan, and proceed with administrative steps for the scholarship fund and server purchase.
