Summary

Public Works Director Josh Moritz asked the committee to recommend a budget resolution to cover the city’s share of newly identified Wisconsin DOT road projects; the committee approved forwarding the resolution, with the city’s 2026 share estimated at $2,750.

Public Works Director Josh Moritz reviewed several Wisconsin Department of Transportation rehabilitation and reconstruction projects affecting State Highway 13 (Veterans Parkway) and State Highway 97 (North Central Avenue). Moritz said two projects already had state-municipal financial agreements but the DOT later identified a third joint-repair project on Veterans Parkway from Calvin Avenue to Chestnut Avenue.

Because the projects were identified after the 2026 budget was adopted, Moritz asked the committee to recommend adoption of a budget resolution (number 11 2026) to cover the city’s share of 2026 costs; he estimated the amount at $2,750. A motion to recommend approval was made and seconded; the committee voted in favor and the motion carried.

The transcript records the estimate as stated by the public works director; it does not include a detailed cost breakdown or a roll-call vote. The item will be forwarded to the Common Council as the committee’s recommendation.
