Muskego City Library Board approves 2027–2031 capital plan, allows contingent updates to boiler estimates
Summary
On June 16, 2026 the Muskego City Library Board voted to approve a five‑year capital plan covering 2027–2031, including a 2027 roof repair and placeholders for boiler and condensing‑unit replacements; the board authorized staff to update those placeholder costs if final estimates arrive before the city council submission.
The Muskego City Library Board voted on June 16 to adopt its 2027–2031 five‑year capital budget, approving a package of building and grounds projects while authorizing staff to amend select placeholder cost estimates if updated vendor bids arrive before the plan goes to City Council.
Director said the package keeps a roof repair scheduled for 2027 and lists condensing units and boiler replacements in 2028–2030 as placeholder amounts. She asked the board to approve the plan with the ability to amend those particular line items if more precise estimates arrive before the July 10 council submittal: “so when you guys vote today, I would ask that you vote with the approval to amend those numbers if new numbers come in before it goes to council,” the Director said.
Board members also reviewed scheduling and cost changes elsewhere in the plan. Light‑pole replacement was moved to 2030 and re‑priced to reflect inflation; public restroom construction was scheduled for 2031; and a security improvements line that had been listed at roughly $85,500 was updated to an estimated $101,000 in 2029 after receiving a vendor estimate. Trustees reviewed earlier work billed to JM Brennan Incorporated — including a boiler‑related repair and replacement of belts — as background for the boiler placeholder numbers.
The motion to approve the capital plan passed on a voice vote. The transcript records the motion and a second and then the chair calling for those in favor; the packet and discussion make clear the board intended that staff be empowered to adjust boiler/condensing‑unit figures if updated, pre‑council estimates become available.
Next steps: staff will assemble a brief presentation of roof damage photos and any vendor estimates and will deliver amended numbers to the city if they arrive before the July 10 council deadline. The capital plan, as approved, will advance to the City Council for review.
