Finance Committee 9-29-2026

The City of Green Bay Finance Committee met on September 29, 2026. The main procurement-related item was a $65,000 federal reimbursement grant for police portable radios, part of a four-year program and used to support the department’s radio replacement schedule. Members questioned new grant conditions concerning information sharing with federal agencies, including DHS, and asked whether the terms differed from prior years and applied only to the radios funded by the grant. Staff and the police department said the award was for equipment and that the department would continue to follow federal law and its local policies. The committee sought legal clarification and a comparison with the prior-year agreement; the item was to advance to the Common Council without a committee recommendation. The transcript does not clearly establish a final committee vote approving the grant.

The committee also received an informational report on properties placed in trust under a 2021 cooperative governance agreement; no purchasing action was identified on that item. The transcript briefly mentions $100,000 in a contingency account but provides no related allocation or decision. Agenda and prior meeting minutes were approved, and the meeting was adjourned.
