North Barstow Exec meeting 6 30 2026

The North Barstow Executive Committee meeting for the City of Eau Claire (meeting metadata date: October 29, 2026; the title references June 30, 2026) approved the January and March minutes and current financials as presented. The committee discussed two sponsorship requests, including a $1,000 request from Ride Across Wisconsin, with $3,000 remaining in the sponsorship budget. A motion was made and seconded to refer the two requests to the full board; the committee did not make final funding awards. Members also discussed a new beautification-grant mural application and $6,500 returned to that grant budget after a prior awardee withdrew; the application was to be forwarded to the full board, with no final award made at this meeting.

The committee received a procurement update on banner hardware: 54 custom-fabricated pieces from Northwestern Enterprises are expected to cost $9,720, within the previously approved amount and about $32,000 below the estimated proprietary-system cost. Seven painted recycling bins are being prepared for placement, with additional replacement liners to be billed separately; the vendor’s 10% charitable contribution was also discussed. Paid-parking implementation was reported as delayed to August 1 while kiosks are programmed and shipped. Members also discussed anticipated proposals to revise DECI’s service contracts and funding, but no related contract or budget action was taken.
