# 10/13/2026 - Common Council Meeting

The City of West Allis Common Council meeting on October 13, 2026, held a public hearing on the proposed 2027 Downtown West Allis Business Improvement District operating plan and special-assessment method. The proposed BID budget represents a $10,000 increase overall and would levy just under $7,000 more from downtown businesses than the prior year; downtown assessed value had increased by about $1.1 million. The hearing closed without recorded public questions, and the transcript does not show a final council vote on the plan. The council also received a design presentation from Grafe for renovating the former Aurora building at 7220 West National Avenue to combine the city’s senior center and health department. The presentation covered proposed spaces and design, but no project cost, contract award, or procurement vote was stated.

Public comments raised a homeowner’s claims related to sewer-lateral repairs and a resident’s concerns about construction-worker parking near a new development. The council approved the consent agenda 9–0 and approved several committee recommendations; one Economic Development Committee action passed 8–1, but the transcript does not identify that item’s subject. No specific contract awards, bids, or purchasing approvals were identifiable in the transcript.
