PUBLIC WORKS
Date: May 23, 2024
To: Laurie Sullivan
From: Jason Herzog, Director of Public Works
Re: 2025-2029 Capital Budget
DESCRIPTION
Changes and additional items in Capital budget
• Minor price adjustments listed in red and details were provided on the far column due to updated price
provided
• Dpw 22 – Design engineering – increase to $125k/yr from $60/yr
o Amount was increased to the amount of work being requested and the work is more
complex requiring addition design and surveying work needed.
• Dpw 24 – Major street work – increased to 1.8M/yr from 1.5M
o The department reviewed the entire City street and requested additional funds to be
used to do more street work to maintain a 30 year replacement program on all streets in
the City.
• New 1 – Skidster snowblower attachment – addition to the 2025 budget $45k
o The department is being required to remove snow along the trails throughout the City.
There is over a 1 mile stretch on hwy 67 is needed and in the large snow events only the
loader and bucket can be used. This equipment currently must be used due to the large
snow amounts pushed from the 3 lanes of snow being pushed onto it from the hwy and
usually 1-2 days after an event. The loader and bucket can only push so much and then
need to dump on the side. This tends to damage all the edges and is much slower. The
blower attachment will allow for clean clearing and the crew will be able to spend less
time considering additional trails being installed in the next couple years that the City will
be responsible for.
• New 2 – scissor lift & trailer – addition to the 2026 budget $25k
o Building maintenance has had to rent a lift to safely complete maintenance on lights,
water pipe repairs, hvac, and other mechanical work. Currently the City has limited
equipment for this.
• New 3 – Hot box & trailer – addition to the 2026 budget $57k
o Currently the crews uses a smaller box in the bed of truck. The current one needs to be
replaced. This unit will be larger capacity and have the flexibility to be used quickly and
allow for the bed of the truck to be free for other equipment, reducing the need for
additional trucks going to the same place.
• New 4 – plow truck – addition to the 2029 budget $315k
1
9
o The City approved an additional crew member in 2024. The addition of the truck will
provide coverage to the snow events with staff. The City street system has grown
tremendously, and continues to expand the amount required to clear.
• New 5 – pickup truck 73 replacement new for the 2029 budget - $55k
o This is a 2019 model
• New 6 – Brine machine – new for the 2029 budget - $50k
o The original machine and tank was purchased in 2018.

MEMO
TO: Laurie Sullivan, Mark Frye
FROM: Jennifer Puccini, Library Director
DATE: July 11, 2024
SUBJECT: 2025-2029 Library Capital Request
The library has three new requests for the 2025 Capital Budget.
• Chiller/Coil replacement in one of the four air conditioning units.
• Funds for a feasibility study, so we can focus on fundraising for a possible future renovation.
• New Service Desk, so we can combine our two current desks into one service desk to better serve our
patrons.
These requests were not made last year because Library staff were not aware of the needs until after the previous
capital budget process.

been updated. The additional amounts are listed below and have been updated on the budget

Parks Item #2 – Northeast Regional Park Development Phase 2.

future park.

This trail expansion is a partnership between Waukesha County Park and Jefferson County
Parks for the expansion of the Lake Country Trail that will expand towards the east beginning
on 2nd Street in Oconomowoc. An additional $40,000 is needed in 2026 for this project.
