The North Barstow Business Improvement District full board meeting for the City of Eau Claire was held December 4, 2025. The board approved the 2026 contract documents with Downtown Eau Claire Inc. (DECI), including an addendum reflecting the 2026 budget and an updated payment process. Staff reported approximately $29,000 remained in the BID’s account, and DECI reported receiving $72,000 in city funding. The board also approved purchasing six planters for $2,634 before shipping, using the available discount and capital-improvement funds; the discussion noted that added planter maintenance and planting costs would need to fit within the existing budget.

The board discussed spending from a previously authorized $10,000 banner budget. Three quotes were obtained, but no vendor selection was recorded; staff planned to order matching banners before year-end, while noting that specialized hardware had a long lead time and limited sourcing options. The board also discussed investigating missing electrical wiring in some light poles, which could require a future capital-improvement project. Other agenda items included financials, beautification grants, downtown construction coordination, and DECI’s membership and funding plans.
