4 issues with medium priority
Handicap Parking at Mendlik Park
A new ADA-accessible pathway to the basketball courts at Mendlik Park needs a handicap parking sign on the south side of Mendlik Street. It's a small-cost accessibility improvement for park users with disabilities.
Lincoln Street Water Main Engineering Work
The committee considered hiring Ayers and Associates for survey and engineering on a water main project on Lincoln Street between 7th and 8th Avenue, plus the Dixie Lunch parking lot. It's the groundwork phase for an infrastructure upgrade.
Deteriorating Utility Poles and Dam-Area Repair
Alderman Wagner flagged moth-eaten electric poles in his ward — one tipping near his building — and a resident raised concern about a pothole-like depression near the dam. The dam work is already budgeted for next year; WPS was asked to check the pole.
Hudson Street and Pearl Avenue CDBG Street Project
The street reconstruction project expanded to include more of Hudson Street after income surveys showed more residents qualified for the CDBG grant — a contract amendment with Ayres Associates for $74,770 was on the consent agenda.
