# Board of Public Works Meeting 11-10-2026 - 6 PM

The City of Franklin, Wisconsin Board of Public Works met on November 10, 2026. The Board approved the August 11 meeting minutes and elected its chairperson and recorder. It approved a warning sign request for a cul-de-sac location, to be handled within the existing budget, and separately approved a warning sign on 68th Street near the Polish Community Center. Staff estimated the latter sign would cost about $150 and said it would be installed in accordance with DOT standards.

The main procurement-related discussion was an informational review of the proposed 2027 road program and a longer-range roadway plan. Proposed 2027 projects totaled about $4.9 million, compared with an approximately $3 million annual road budget—a roughly $1.9 million shortfall. One listed project, River Bridge Parkway, was estimated at $1.25 million. Staff discussed pavement conditions, project prioritization, related water-main work funded separately through the water utility budget, and the challenge of keeping pace with roadway replacement costs. No road projects were awarded or approved; staff said the plan would be presented to the Common Council, with budget parameters to be considered.
