Top issues during term (20)(Development)
De Pere Parking Garage final payment
Rate revenue for the city-owned garage chargers; amounts not stated.
South Front Street right-of-way discontinuance
No direct cost to taxpayers is stated; the vacated land would be attached to adjacent parcels, most of them city-owned.
Workforce Housing Near Humana
Rents at 80% of area median income were cited at roughly $1,600 for a one-bedroom — 'affordable' but not low-cost.
2535 Lawrence Drive land acquisition
Up to $440,000 of public funds, with the final cost still to be settled and Council approval required.
CLG subgrant for 405 S Wisconsin St
Grant funding could cover designation costs for qualifying properties, but the money isn't available until July 2027.
Business park development agreement with NSN Real Estate
Terms of the agreements were not detailed in the minutes.
Downtown housing growth goal
The project could mean a $70 million private investment and a bigger tax base, but the city’s infrastructure costs are still unclear.
Lockside riverfront redevelopment (100 S. Broadway block)
About $12 million in city/TID assistance requested, repaid from new tax increment — no direct hit to your tax bill, with roughly $1 million a year in new tax revenue flowing to local governments after the TID closes.
Trellis Drive subdivision in Ledgeview
New lots would expand the property tax base, though specific revenue figures weren't given.
Annexation of Rockland Parcels
City staff said deferred assessments and utility funding tools could shield the objecting owner from sewer/water extension costs; a property tax increase remains a concern.
303 Reid Street redevelopment
Not yet determined; the agreement terms were not acted on.
Rock Ridge Estates subdivision plat
Mobius after-school childcare facility TIF grant
$90,000 city grant plus a prior $15,000 Experience De Pere grant, offset by about $30,000/year in new property taxes.
Multifamily housing at 2108 Lawrence Drive
Former Irwin School redevelopment
About $2.75 million in potential city assistance would be needed, with roughly $1.35 million available from the TID and a possible gap of about $400,000.
Trellis Drive subdivision (37 lots in Ledgeview)
New lots would expand the property tax base, though specific revenue figures weren't given.
Element Properties expansion at 2081 Profit Place
$55,000 city grant against roughly $450,000 in new assessed value.
Jim Cornell Plumbing facility at 700 Millennium Court
A $72,250 land grant from TID 10 with no new borrowing; future growth helps pay existing TID debt.
Business park berm buffering west-side homes
Tree planting costs aren't budgeted and would fall to the city or developers via the agreement.
Future Street at Lost Dauphin Road (Area Development Plan)
