Common Council - Sep 15, 2026
The council approved building the new station within the Broadway redevelopment and committed up to $15 million in borrowing. It affects fire response times on the near-east side and ties into the GenCap apartment project.
Redevelopment Authority - Sep 8, 2026
The reworked GenCap agreement locks in 85 affordable apartments, a community service facility, and a new fire station on the old Badger Sheet Metal site. The city carries some risk — including a $3.17 million payment if the fire station project falls through — but housing starts this fall with completion by the end of 2028.
