Pardeeville meeting summaries, agendas, and minutes

Pardeeville Fire District contract, bylaws dominate recent meeting agendas; no minutes published yet

Pardeeville area officials spent the last two weeks focused on the structure and finances of the Pardeeville Fire Protection District, with multiple meetings scheduled to review contracts, bylaws, and insurance coverage. However, minutes have not yet been published for any of the recent meetings, so it is not yet possible to report what was actually decided.

Fire Protection District Commission — July 21

The Pardeeville Fire Protection District Commission agenda listed several significant items, including adoption of a formal, written contract with the Pardeeville Fire Department for fire-protection services and adoption of a policy allowing remote or virtual attendance at meetings.

The agenda also included a memorandum of understanding with the Village of Pardeeville formalizing a mowing and snow removal agreement, updates to the PFPD bylaws to reflect operations and the relationship to the PFD, and a resolution requesting the Village of Pardeeville update its ordinances to clarify roles between the PFD and PFPD.

Because only the agenda is available and minutes have not been published, there is no record yet of which items were approved, amended, or tabled.

Village Board quorum notice — July 21

The Village Board issued a notice that members might form a quorum at the Fire Protection District meeting on the same date. The notice stated that no formal action or discussion of Village business would take place at that event. The agenda contained only procedural boilerplate.

Special joint meeting — July 22

The Village Board, together with the Town Boards of Marcellon, Scott, and Wyocena, held a special joint meeting to review Pardeeville Fire District matters.

Agenda items included review of the Fire District bylaws, discussion of the district's insurance coverage, consideration of the Pardeeville Area Fire Department contract, review of financial accounts for the fire district and department, and discussion of fire district property and future plans. No other actions were listed. Minutes have not been published, so outcomes are not yet on the record.

Board of Review — July 29

The Board of Review was scheduled to examine the annual assessment report and the assessment roll, including the assessor's affidavit. The agenda included certification of corrections of error under Wis. Stat. 70.43 and action on legally allowed or required Board of Review requests and waivers.

As with the other meetings this period, only the agenda is available; minutes have not been published.

Why this matters

The fire-protection contract and related bylaw changes affect how fire services are governed and funded across Pardeeville and the surrounding towns. The Board of Review handles property assessment corrections, which can affect individual tax bills. Residents seeking confirmed outcomes should watch for published minutes from these bodies.

Coming up

No upcoming meetings are listed for the next 14 days.

Pardeeville boards weigh storm lateral costs, dog park permit, fire district lawsuit

Pardeeville's recent government meetings covered storm sewer costs, a dog park permit, financial policies, and a fire district legal matter — but because minutes have not yet been published for any of the three sessions, only the agendas are available to confirm what was scheduled for discussion. No final actions can be verified at this time.

Village Board — July 1

The Village Board agenda listed a storm lateral installation cost agreement for 521 Chestnut St. totaling $3,835, or $4,026.75 with interest, paid in monthly installments of $68 over five years. The agenda indicated the board would consider including the cost in a special assessment.

Also on the agenda: a change order for the Schneider St. reconstruction project, a resolution approving a conditional use permit for the Pardee Park dog park, and a resolution adopting the Village investment policy (R26-06). A closed session was scheduled to investigate possible charges against the former Village Treasurer.

Because minutes are not yet published, it is not possible to confirm which items were approved, tabled, or modified.

Fire Protection District — July 2

The Pardeeville Fire Protection District Commission scheduled a closed session to discuss a pending lawsuit, a possible open meeting violation, and guidance from legal counsel. After reconvening in open session, the agenda called for consideration of:

• The status of a mowing and snow removal memorandum of understanding with the Village of Pardeeville.
• Expanding Door 3 to a 14-foot opening.
• The status of refurbishing an engine with Rennerts.
• Setting a date for the next special meeting.

No outcomes are confirmed, as minutes have not been published.

Senior Center Commission — June 24

The Senior Center Commission agenda reviewed building updates, donations and expenses, and a completed walking path crack-filling and sealcoating project. The official walking path opening was set for July 1.

New business included reviewing a business rental contract update, creating walking path rules, and planning a tree planting in memory of Steve Thompson. A scam trends seminar was listed as reviewed and closed.

Again, minutes are not yet available, so final actions cannot be verified.

What this means for residents

The Chestnut St. storm lateral agreement, if approved, would set a repayment structure for that property owner. The dog park conditional use permit would govern operations at Pardee Park. The fire district's closed-session legal discussions could affect district governance and equipment decisions. Residents should watch for published minutes to confirm what was actually decided.

Coming up

No upcoming meetings are listed for the next 14 days. Readers should check the Village of Pardeeville's official postings for any newly scheduled sessions.
