Summary

The Village of Ceresco unanimously approved Resolution 2025-9 adopting the One and Six Year Street Improvement Plan and moved Project M-196-(77) (2nd Street, Main to Beech) from the six-year schedule into the 2025/26 one-year program, with discussion of milling, parking-base materials and grant eligibility.

The Village of Ceresco Board of Trustees unanimously adopted Resolution 2025-9 on Aug. 19, 2025, approving the village’s One and Six Year Street Improvement Plan and moving Project M-196-(77) — 2nd Street from Main Street to Beech Street — from the Six Year Plan into the One Year Plan for fiscal year 2025/2026.

Village engineer Ogden reviewed the plan and said projects carried forward from a development (M-196-(72A) and M-196-(72B)) remain in the One Year Plan, and that two Elm Street overlay segments and Laura Lane Circle patching were added. Ogden told trustees that M-196-(77) was moved into the One Year Plan to allow paving, patching and updated curb ramps to be done sooner.

Trustees and resident Shawn Manion questioned milling width, whether millings could be reused for parking bases and how grant eligibility is determined. Ogden said milling typically leaves an 8-foot driving lane profile and that millings can be used as a top layer over rock in parking areas; she also explained that many redevelopment grants are income-based and that Ceresco’s low-to-moderate-income (LMI) percentage has limited eligibility for some programs. She confirmed the village would cost-share $60,000 for intersection work on projects tied to Hunter’s First Addition, with the developer covering remaining costs for those portions of the work.

The approved One Year Plan (FY 2025/2026) includes: M-196-(72A) (4th Street and adjacent links — concrete paving, curb/gutter, storm sewer and utilities); M-196-(72B) (Main Street curb, gutter and sidewalk additions); M-196-(74) and M-196-(75) (Elm Street overlays); M-196-(76) (Laura Lane Circle patch and overlay); and M-196-(77) (2nd Street mill and overlay with curb-ramp updates).

Chairman Scott Peterson moved the resolution; the motion passed with Yeas: Peterson, Ruble, Johnson, Custer and Burklund and no nays. The board also discussed leaving Project M-196-(51) (2nd Street downtown redevelopment) on the Six Year Plan pending future downtown improvement grant opportunities.
