Top issues during term (20)
Cheese Days and Special Event Approvals

Downtown liquor license expansions
Supports downtown businesses and event attendance; no direct city cost identified.
Main Street Monroe grant funded through TID No. 7
$40,000 annually from TID 7 through roughly 2032, freeing that amount on the general tax levy.
Monroe Botanical Garden project support
No city money committed tonight; the project depends on private fundraising.
Comprehensive plan amendment and rezoning for Monroe Bible Church parcel
Publication costs for the public notice apply, though commissioners suggested combining hearings to save money.
2027 Budget

September 8 public hearings: in-home daycare rules and historic-district signs
Business and property owners in the historic district may face costs complying with new sign standards.
Sale of city property on 21st Street
Unknown — terms were discussed in closed session.

Max Fire Box Phase II fire training system purchase
$19,953.57 plus shipping, already earmarked in the 2026 capital budget.
Wisconsin Power and Light Rezoning
The parcel is utility-owned, and utilities are exempt from property tax, so no tax gain is expected.
2027 Cost-of-Living Adjustment to Pay Scale
A 2.5% versus 3.5% COLA would produce noticeably different 2027 payroll costs for the city.
2027 employee health insurance renewals
Insurance renewal costs affect the city budget and employee premium contributions; exact figures were in the packet materials.
2027 Fee Schedule
The 2027 budget and fee schedule will determine airport spending and user fees for the coming year; fuel revenue is already down roughly 15,000 gallons year over year.
Artificial intelligence use in city government
No direct cost noted, though Co-Pilot comes through the city's existing Microsoft license.
2027 City Administrator Compensation
Any compensation adjustment for the City Administrator affects the 2027 city payroll.
School Zone Safety Near Northside Elementary and New High School
No new signs were bought — most were reused from the old high school — but a future traffic study would cost staff time and possibly more if speed limits change later.
Rear setback variance at 1121 21st Avenue
No direct cost to the city; the applicant pays for his own construction.
2027 city budget and fee schedule
Levy limits allow only about $100,000 in new tax capacity this year, pushing capital costs into bonding.
