The Xcel Energy line undergrounding alone carries a roughly $1.35 million quote, with staff exploring state and federal funding.
CDBG housing rehabilitation program partnership
$250,000 per year in CDBG funds for a two-year agreement — $500,000 total.
Northside Floodplain Redevelopment
Up to $15,000 from the Authority, split with War Eagle LSE.

Up to $1 million in TID 11 taxpayer funds for utility improvements, plus a TIF pay-go package.
Homelessness prevention funding
$30,183.05 redirected to homelessness prevention services.
Temporary moratorium on data centers
Unknown — a moratorium itself has no direct cost but could affect future tax base from data center development.
Reuse of North Community Library building
Redevelopment of the property could return it to the tax rolls, though terms depend on proposals received.
Redevelopment of former community policing center at 713 St. James St.
Bridgeview Plaza redevelopment public assistance
The amount of public assistance was not stated in the published agenda materials.
Affordable homeownership flexibility
Featherstone Rise subdivision
Trane plant site phase two development
Homes for 100 rent-support fund
Prevention math cited: it often takes $3,000–$4,000 to keep someone housed, versus far more once they hit the streets.
Childcare access funding shift
Moves $99,650 in existing ARPA-era funds — no new city money.
development project
There’s no cost estimate in the update, so it’s unclear whether this means new tax revenue, city spending, or both.
East Avenue / Mormon Coulee Road rezone for mixed use
bike lanes and riverfront redevelopment
Taxpayers could see new infrastructure and redevelopment costs, while private investment and bike-lane spending remain uncertain until details and the delayed vote move forward.
