# Board of Public Works Meeting - September 14, 2026

The City of Stevens Point Board of Public Works held a meeting on September 14, 2026, focusing on several infrastructure and maintenance projects. Key procurement-related discussions included updates on the Division and Church Street reconstruction projects, with the contractor indicating potential carryover into 2027 due to weather, material delays, and contractor availability. The board approved a maintenance agreement with the Portage County Highway Commission, which would make the city responsible for maintenance of certain county roads within city limits, including street lighting and stormwater systems. The board also approved fall paving projects funded partly by Local Road Improvement Program (LRIP) funds, aiming to address deteriorating roads. Additionally, the board approved a state municipal financial agreement with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation to incorporate city utility relocations into a state highway curb ramp project, noting that the exact costs are unknown but included in the capital budget. A curb cut agreement with Point Med Properties LLC was approved to manage access points for future development. Lastly, the board discussed the potential conversion of Clark Street from one-way to two-way traffic, with plans to seek further evaluation and cost estimates from WisDOT. Motions related to these projects and agreements were passed, with some members voting in opposition on specific items.
