Lisbon committees weigh stormwater fee increase, park plans, and infrastructure repairs

Lisbon officials spent the past two weeks reviewing potential utility fee increases, park planning concepts, and infrastructure repair projects across several committee and board meetings. Because minutes have not yet been published for any of the recent meetings, the items below reflect what appeared on each agenda — not confirmed decisions or votes.

Public Works & Utility Committee (July 15)

The committee's agenda included a potential 50% increase to the stormwater utility fee, which would raise the charge to approximately $72 per household. The agenda also listed a proposed $10 administrative fee for incomplete sewer utility payment checks.

Infrastructure items on the agenda included replacement of the box culvert at Richmond Road and replacement of six check valves and six plug valves at three lift stations. The committee also planned to discuss replacing WAM mowers with zero-turn mowers and addressing a projected deficit in the compost fund, along with retention pond maintenance.

Village Board (July 8)

The Village Board agenda covered Resolution 2026-06, an amendment to the 2026-2027 fee schedule, as well as conceptual options for a new park plan. Other listed items included a petition to the Wisconsin Public Service Commission for underground electrical lines, the Richmond Road box culvert replacement, a selection process for a new building inspector, and a replacement plan for Engine 30.

Board of Review (July 8)

The Board of Review held a routine procedural meeting. The agenda included only standard items such as call to order, roll call, and confirmation of the clerk's statutory duties before adjourning. No substantive decisions, hearings, or public input were scheduled.

Park Committee (July 8)

The Lisbon Parks Committee meeting scheduled for July 8 was cancelled. No items were discussed or decided.

Coming up

Plan Commission — Wednesday, July 22: The commission will review a request by Mike Wichert and Ausblick, Inc. to combine a vacant parcel with the property at W260N6395 Mary Hill Road and expand a conditional use permit. Also on the agenda: a 2-lot Certified Survey Map request by Richard Swanson at N94W23611 Hermitage Drive, a zoning waiver request by Steven and Mary Margaret Doman for an accessory building at N77W24195 Hidden Oaks Drive, review of the Public Participation Plan for the Comprehensive Development Plan: 2035, and discussion of annual quarry inspection reports for Lannon Stone Products, Stark Pavement, Genesee Aggregate, Payne & Dolan, Halquist, and Amrize.
