Summary
WISDOT staff presented the agency's six‑year Capital Improvement Plan for Calumet County, discussed the upcoming state budget and anticipated maintenance funds, and thanked county staff for partnership. The presentation was informational and concluded without committee action.
The Calumet County Highway Committee received an informational presentation from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation on June 4, 2026. WISDOT staff reviewed the agency’s six‑year Capital Improvement Plan as it relates to projects and maintenance in Calumet County and outlined funding expectations tied to the upcoming state budget.
Highway Commissioner Chad Scheinoha introduced WISDOT representatives including Deputy Director Scott Nelson and Project Development Chief Tim Rank. According to the minutes, WISDOT staff thanked Calumet County for its assistance and partnership and answered questions from the committee. The DOT presentation was described as informational; DOT staff departed at 3:24 p.m.
Why it matters: the six‑year plan frames which state highway projects and maintenance will be prioritized and funded in the county in coming years. Committee members heard schedule and funding context that will inform local planning and the county’s 2027 budget development.
Next steps: no action was required at the meeting; county and DOT staff are positioned to coordinate on scheduling and funding once state budget decisions are finalized.
