Muskego City finance committee authorizes new building and engineering administrative support position
Summary
The Muskego City Finance Committee voted July 14 to authorize an additional building and engineering administrative support position, citing an overwhelmed staff member and anticipated permit demand tied to the pending Kirkland Crossing development. Funding to cover the position was reported as available.
The Muskego City Finance Committee voted July 14 to authorize a new administrative support position for the city’s building and engineering functions, citing current staffing shortfalls and expected development-related permit activity.
Chair said the role is needed because the current staffer, identified only as Wendy in the meeting, "is just overwhelmed." The Chair said the city expects a surge in permit applications if the pending Kirkland Crossing project is approved, adding, "we're probably gonna easily get, like, 60 home permits in at once." The Chair said the city has a funding source that will "easily cover the cost" of the additional position and framed the change as a customer-service issue to prevent permit-processing delays that could slow local economic development.
Committee members moved and seconded the authorization and approved it by voice vote. The action authorizes staffing and directs that the position be included in the normal budget process; the Chair noted final funding allocation will proceed through that process.
The committee did not record individual roll-call votes in the transcript; the action was approved by voice. The committee then proceeded to other agenda items and adjourned at 5:54 p.m.
