06-03-2026 Council Meeting

The City of Neenah held a council meeting on June 3, 2026, which included the appointment of Mark Newman as the new alderman for District 2 following presentations by multiple candidates. The council discussed several procurement and budget-related matters, notably the inclusion of temporary road improvements for the Freedom Meadows subdivision in the 2028 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) with a 50/50 cost share between the city and residents. There was significant debate about the financial impact of this addition on other planned road projects and concerns about enforcement of developer agreements related to street maintenance. The council also approved a final payment of $55,696.50 to Custom Foam Corporation for re-roofing city service building vehicle bays. Additionally, the council approved retitling a communications position to enhance community engagement and discussed policy development for stormwater and sanitary sewer rate evaluations. Public input focused heavily on an ordinance regulating e-bikes and scooters, with calls for further stakeholder engagement and ordinance refinement. The meeting concluded with a closed session to discuss pending litigation matters.
