Weyauwega council approves $391,403.55 in payments, appraisal contract and multiple permits
Summary
The Weyauwega Common Council on July 15 approved checks totaling $391,403.55, a three-year appraisal-services agreement, several event permits, operator licenses and recreation purchases; most motions carried unanimously among the six voting members.
The Weyauwega Common Council on July 15 approved checks dated June 1–30, 2024 totaling $391,403.55 and accepted the monthly financial statements, a roll-call item that passed with six “ayes” and no “nays.”
The council also approved a new three-year agreement with Associated Appraisal Consultants after a Finance Committee recommendation. Councilmember Shani Appleby moved the contract approval, and Pat Gorchals seconded; the motion carried unanimously among those voting.
Council members approved several routine permits and purchases. The Recreation Committee’s recommendation to accept a Mi T Fence quote to replace batting cages was approved; the $replacement will be covered by the City’s insurance claim, council members said. The council also accepted a donation from Becky Jensen to buy a second “Little Digger” playground unit and approved completing that purchase. Council approved operator licenses for Mahesh Panthi and Prabin MC (Weyauwega BP) and granted a street use permit for a High Street Block Party on July 20, 2024. The Weyauwega-Fremont High School homecoming parade permit for Sept. 26, 2024 was approved as well.
Motions were typically made and seconded by council members and recorded as carrying with six ayes and zero nays where votes were taken. For example, the payments and monthly financials vote recorded 'ayes' from Meta Berg, Pat Gorchals, Chris Gunderson, Shani Appleby, Austin Baehnman and Cameron Looker.
Why it matters: the approvals cover the city’s near-term fiscal obligations, maintenance and community events that require public-safety coordination and permit oversight, and they finalize the contract for valuation services the city will use over the next three years.
The meeting also set the city calendar: committee meetings were scheduled for Wednesday, Aug. 14 because of the Aug. 13 primary, and the regular August council meeting was set for Monday, Aug. 19.
The council adjourned after moving into closed session to discuss a personnel matter (see separate item).
