Common Council _ May 4, 2026

The City of West Bend Common Council held a regular meeting on May 4, 2026, which included proclamations honoring Police Week, Emergency Medical Services Week, and Professional Municipal Clerk's Week. The council approved several land use and zoning amendments related to a mixed-use development project in Tax Incremental District (TID) 18, including changes to the comprehensive plan, rezoning from single-family to multifamily residential, and approval of a Planned Unit Development (PUD) overlay with associated lot and setback exceptions. These approvals are part of a multi-step process to facilitate new residential construction with price points aimed at addressing housing needs. The council also discussed traffic safety improvements and upcoming ordinances, including an e-bike ordinance. In closed session, the council deliberated on negotiations related to an intergovernmental agreement and an amended developer agreement for an industrial development in TID 14, ultimately approving the amended developer agreement pending final legal review. No specific contract awards or vendor selections were detailed in the transcript, but the developer agreements and zoning approvals indicate ongoing capital improvement and development projects.
