Aye. All those opposed? None opposed? That vote passes unanimously. I think it will pop up on the screen. It's coming. There we go. Six to zero. All righty. Next up, we have our first business item, the land use plan amendment for 222 Maple Avenue. I believe, Doug, you are handling this one for us? Yes, I am. Thank you. Oops. Sorry about that. Let's get... That should look a little better. Okay. So this is a land use plan amendment. We haven't had one of these in a little while again. But basically, the city has a comprehensive land use plan that covers the uses of the city and defines those areas that would be residential, commercial, or industrial. And then we have our zoning, which is the rules for …

All right, good evening everyone. We'll call the Tuesday, October 27th meeting of the Finance Committee to order. We do have a quorum. I want to thank the committee, staff, and the public for convening a little early this evening. I understand there's a baseball game later on tonight. So with that, please rise for the Pledge of Allegiance. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. All right, next item on our agenda is public comment. Are there any members of the public here this evening that wish to address the Finance Committee? All right, seeing no public comment, we'll move on to approval of minutes, item number 4A. Are there any changes to the minutes from the committee? All right, seeing none, the minutes are approved through unanimous consent. We do have a couple of business items before we get into the budget. So that will take us to item number 5A, which is review and act on a proposed agreement with the Minnesota Cooperative Purchasing Venture. I'll be taking this one, and you might be one. Brian Engelking, transit manager. The reason why I'm bringing this forward is the paratransit buses that we typically purchase are on the Minnesota state contract. And so if the city becomes part of that, we can get advantageous pricing for that. The Minnesota purchasing venture is open to any municipality in the state of Wisconsin. There's over 100 d …

Moving along to discussion decision items. Review and possible action on as a recommendation to the Finance Committee. Proposed 2027 Executive Operating Budget for the Parks, Rec reation and Forestry Department. All right. Thank you, Jennifer. So hopefully everyone had a chance to look over the budget. And basically what we do is we take the 250 some plus pages within the overall city budget document and condense it down to just the PRF or park rec forestry related items. And it's much more manageable. I think it's about 30 pages. So we're going to kind of walk through that. Feel free to ask questions along the way.

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, to the republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. All right. We'll move on to public comments. Are there any members of the public that are here tonight to address the Finance Committee? All right. Seeing none, before we move on to 4A, I've been, have received repeated requests that if we do creep past 7 o'clock, that any highlights, low lights, or anything related to a particular baseball game be kept to yourself, because we have folks that are, and I'm of that generation, recording it. So. With that, we will move on to item number 4A, which is minutes from our meeting on the 13th. Are there any changes to those minutes from the committee? All right. Seeing none, those minutes are approved through unanimous consent. That'll move us on to item number 5A, which is a continued review of our executive operating budget. Before we dive in, I know the council and the Finance Committee received a note today that given the fact that we've got a little bit more budget to do, and we want to make sure that the committee and the council have time, adequate time, to review the budget and just see if there's any amendments, we are going to take advantage of our flex meeting date on Tuesday, October …

Alright, so I will call to order the Board of Zoning Appeals. Today is October 12th, 2026. I don't have an agenda, though, so I don't know the case number and things like that, so when we get to it... Thank you. So, first I will do a roll call. Just who you are on the record, please. Tim Nickage here. Christy D'Angelo here. Eric Dunst here. Kevin Reilly. Is there any public comment from anyone that is not related to the matters that are before the Board of Zoning Appeals? Seeing none, we will move on. Then I need a motion to approve the minutes from the August 10, 2026 meeting. Tim Nickage, so moved. Eric Dunst, second. All in favor? Aye. Anyone opposed? All right. Then we are on to new business. So, the way this kind of works, just to let you both know, is I will read the appeal itself. The city will then present information about what you're appealing and the information that they have on file. They'll give us some background information and those kinds of things. If you have any questions for the city, you will have an opportunity to ask those questions. We, as the Board, will also have an opportunity to ask them any questions that we would have. Then you will have an opportunity to come up to the microphone and provide us with any additional information that you would like for us to consider as it relates to your appeal. Just ask, and I'll try to remind you. When you come up to the microphone, please state your name in full and your current residential address for the rec …

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. All right, for roll call, Commissioners Granger and Walner are not able to attend. All other members of the commission are present. Before we get started with the bulk of this meeting, I do understand that we have a lot of people here tonight. I believe that probably many of you are here to speak on one specific issue. While all of you are welcome to speak during the public comment section, which is going to come directly after I give my little spiel here, you are welcome to do so. The item that you wish to speak on, if it is on the agenda, will come up and you will also have an opportunity to speak at that time, which is what I would recommend, because that will be after the presentation that we receive and after the commissioners have an opportunity to ask some of the questions you might already have. With that in mind, I do want to make sure that we are all being respectful of each other. That means no speaking out of turn, no shouting, et cetera. I also ask that you address all comments and questions directly to the commission or to our wonderful city staff members up here, rather than having conversations amongst yourselves.
