Top issues during term (20)
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.
2027 Budget
Each 1% of COLA adds roughly $38,000 to salaries and wages, so 2.8% is about $106,000.
Historic district exterior alterations
Business and property owners in the historic district may face costs complying with new sign standards.
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.
Police union contract extension with wage increase
The wage increase raises city personnel costs for the police department through 2027, though the exact dollar amount wasn't disclosed.
2027 city budget and fee schedule
Levy limits allow only about $100,000 in new tax capacity this year, pushing capital costs into bonding.
Lead Service Line Replacement Program
$1.02 million contract, mostly covered by a federal grant with about $200,000 from the city.
Sign rules in the historic district
Business and property owners in the historic district may face costs complying with new sign standards.
North Industrial Park site investigation
Costs of the site investigation proposal were not disclosed in open session.
Flooding damage at the Monroe Golf Course city easement
Potential repair costs are unknown until staff review the city's obligations under the easement.
New stop signs on 4th Street
Not stated.
