PUBLIC COMMENTS – The City Council will receive public comments on any issue(s) not related to agenda items. Limited discussion by the City Council may take place; however, no action will be taken on any items. This includes receiving written requests or documentation and possible action at a future meeting. There were no public comments. 2 Consideration of Ordinance 04-26, An Ordinance Adopting the “City of Prescott Comprehensive Plan 2026-2046” City Administrator Matt Wolf presented the proposed City of Prescott Comprehensive Plan 2026-2046. Since February 2025, the Plan Commission has reviewed and updated each chapter of the City’s Comprehensive Plan in accordance with Wisconsin Statutes § 66.1001(2). The review included the following: Issues and Opportunities; Housing; Transportation; Utilities and Community Facilities; Agricultural, Natural, and Cultural Resources; Economic Development; Intergovernmental Cooperation; Land Use; and Implementation. The Plan Commission incorporated feedback received from residents through the 2025 community survey. A public hearing was held on June 1, 2026, as per WI State Statute § 66.1001(4)(d). No comments or feedback were received during the hearing. Therefore, the final step in the adoption process is approval by the City Council. Otwell/Hintz motioned to approve Ordinance 04-26, An Ordinance Adopting the “City of Prescott Comprehensive Plan 2026-2046.” Alderperson Otwell noted an interesting shift in the plan's direction, moving from preserving agricultural land toward supporting a farm-to-table approach. She asked whether there was any discussion during the planning process about the city acquiring additional agricultural land. She noted that, aside from Borner Farms, there are limited agricultural resources within the city. While farms located near residential areas can sometimes generate concerns from residents, she expressed support for expanding agricultural initiatives, such as community gardens. There was no further discussion on the motion. Motion passed without a negative voice vote. 3. Resolution 27-26 Approving the Change Order No. 2 for the Magee Park Improvements Project City Administrator Matt Wolf presented Change Order No. 2 for the Magee Park Improvement Project. The change order includes: locating and excavating undocumented storm sewer line and outfall; remove and replace portions of existing 12-inch and 18-inch reinforced concrete storm sewer pipe; adjusting an existing storm sewer manhole, including installation of extension rings and a new concrete base; excavating and restoring the existing storm sewer outfall pipe leading to the stormwater pond; and flush and clean the storm sewer system and install additional riprap protection at the outfall. Cedar Corporation reviewed the change order and determined that the cost is reasonable and necessary to complete the project. The change order increases the overall construction contract from $509,569.66 to $515,696.14. Because the additional work was directly related to the installation of the new water and sanitary sewer infrastructure, staff recommended funding the change order equally between the Water Utility Fund and the Sewer Utility Fund. If approved, the final payment will be made to Total Excavating LLC, and the Magee Park improvements project will be considered substantially complete. Following the project closeout and final review by the WI DNR, the city will be eligible to receive the remaining reimbursement of $140,181.25 from the WI DNR Knowles-Nelson Stewardship Program. Mayor Gerke asked whether the grant reimbursement would be used to pay off the city’s loan for the project. Wolf explained that Capital Funds were used to pay for the project and that any reimbursement would be returned to Capital Funds. Hintz/Sorenson motioned to approve Resolution 27-26 Approving Change Order No. 2 for the Magee Park Improvements Project. Motion passed without a negative voice vote. 4. Resolution 28-26 Adopting Amendments to the City of Prescott Employee Handbook City Administrator Matt Wolf reviewed proposed amendments to the City of Prescott Employee Handbook. On May 6, 2026, the Personnel Committee voted to recommend three amendments to the city’s employee handbook for the City Council’s consideration. 1. Compensatory Time, 2. Artificial Intelligence (AI) Use Policy, and 3. Compensation Plan, Performance Evaluations, and Wage Scale. The proposed amendments formally incorporate annual wage scale adoption into the budget process and provide employees with a clear understanding of the city’s compensation philosophy. Alderperson Sorenson asked which AI applications staff currently use. Wolf stated that staff primarily use ChatGPT to assist with drafting memos and resolutions to improve accuracy and avoid grammatical errors. Hintz/Otwell motioned to approve Resolution 28-26 Adopting Amendments to the City of Prescott Employee Handbook. There was no further discussion. Motion passed without a negative voice vote. 5. Approval of the Mercord Mill Parking Lot to an Overnight Lot and Replacement of Signs City Administrator Matt Wolf provided an overview of the city’s municipal parking lots. The city operates three municipal parking lots in the downtown area for public use, excluding the boat launch parking lot and on-street parking stalls. These lots are located on Orange Street, Cherry Street, and Mercord Mill. Currently, overnight parking is permitted in the Orange Street and Cherry Street lots, while the Mercord Mill lot is posted as no overnight parking. As part of the Riverfront Phase 2 project, the city repaved and restriped the Mercord Mill parking lot, installed new signage, and added signs prohibiting overnight parking. Since the installation of the new signs, several individuals have contacted the city stating that they had previously parked overnight in the lot without issue and requested that overnight parking be permitted. In discussions with Chief Michaels, staff determined that the overnight parking restriction has generally not been enforced because enforcement would require officers to document vehicles parked overnight and verify their continued presence the following morning, making enforcement difficult and resource- intensive. Allowing overnight parking at the Mercord Mill lot would create consistency among all three municipal parking lots. Regardless of whether overnight parking is permitted, all municipal parking lots will remain subject to City Code § 545-13.A, regarding parking restrictions and posted limitations. Hintz/Bettis motioned to approve the Approval of the Mercord Mill Parking Lot to an Overnight Lot and Replacement of Signs. There was no discussion on the motion. Motion passed without a negative voice vote. 6. Approval of the Memorandum of Understanding for Use and Cost Sharing Between the City of Prescott and the Prescott Library Board City Administrator Matt Wolf presented a proposed Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City of Prescott and the Prescott Public Library. Since the city and the library share the municipal facility located at 800 Borner Street, responsibilities for building operations and maintenance have historically been shared; however, no formal written agreement has existed outlining each party’s obligations. The proposed MOU establishes a framework for the ownership, operation, maintenance, repair, replacement, and cost-sharing responsibilities associated with the building and grounds. Key provisions of the agreement include: The city retains ownership of the building and grounds; The Library Board maintains responsibility and control for the Library portion of the building; Utility costs, custodial services, and HVAC maintenance will be shared based on the agreed-upon allocation; The city will be responsible for exterior building maintenance, grounds maintenance, parking lots, sidewalks, security systems, fire alarm systems, and future building additions or expansions; and The Library will be responsible for equipment, furnishings, and interior maintenance within the Library portion of the building; Shared spaces will generally be maintained through a 50/50 cost-sharing arrangement; Capital Improvement requests exceeding $10,000 with a useful life greater than five years will continue to be submitted through the City’s Capital Improvement Plan process; and the agreement establishes procedures for handling unexpected repairs and replacements that may impact library operations of public safety. The MOU provides a framework that will assist both the city and the Library Board with future budgeting, capital planning, and facility management. Hintz/Granquist motion to approve the Memorandum of Understanding for Use and Cost Sharing Between the City of Prescott and the Prescott Public Library Board. There was no discussion on the motion. Motion passed without a negative voice vote. 8. OTHER BUSINESS There was no other business. 9. CLOSED SESSION 1. Closed session per Wisconsin State Statute 19.85 (1)(c) “Considering employment, promotion, compensation, or performance evaluation data of any public employee over which the governmental body has jurisdiction or exercises responsibility.” – Public Works Workers Holman and Kinneman Granquist/Otwell motioned to go into closed session at 6:33 p.m. There was no discussion on the motion. Mayor Gerke called for a roll-call vote; Sorenson – yes, Bettis – yes, Hintz – yes, Granquist – yes, and Otwell – yes. Motion passed without a negative voice vote. Sorenson/Hintz motioned to come out of closed session at 6:53 p.m. There was no discussion on the motion. Mayor Gerke called for a roll-call vote; Sorenson – yes, Bettis – yes, Hintz – yes, Granquist – yes, and Otwell – yes. Motion passed without a negative voice vote. Otwell/Granquist motioned to approve a 1-year probationary period between the City of Prescott and Matt Holman as the Utilities Foreman and Jeremy Kinneman as the Streets and Parks Foreman. There was no further discussion on the motion. Motion passed without a negative voice vote. 10. ADJOURNMENT Granquist/Sorenson motioned to adjourn the Council meeting at 6:54 p.m. There was no discussion on the motion. Motion passed without a negative voice vote. Respectfully Submitted, Rashel Temmers Rashel Temmers Clerk Parks and Public Works Committee Meeting Minutes May 18th, 2026 Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, a meeting of the Parks and Public Works Committee was held May 18th, 2026, Municipal Building, 800 Borner Street, Prescott, Wisconsin, 54021. The meeting was called to order at 5:00 PM.

Approve Minutes for April 20th, 2026 Hintz motioned to approve the minutes for April 20th. Bettis seconded; motion passed without a negative voice (3-0). 2. Non-Motorized Boat Launch – Repair and Maintenance Items City Administrator Wolf presented items related to repairs and maintenance at the Prescott Non-Motorized Boat Launch. Staff noted that a second quote was previously pursued, but no additional contractors expressed interest in completing the work. Franz Altpeter, 1110 Lake St, stated he was surprised by the current condition of the boat launch and commented that the stairs were in poor condition. He supported making improvements, including the addition of railings, and noted that the park is well used. Kris Sampson agreed the launch receives frequent use and commented that accessibility improvements for visitors and kayakers should be considered. Sampson also suggested adding garbage cans near the beach area. Committee Member Bettis suggested evaluating whether replacing the stairs entirely with a ramp may be a better long-term option and encouraged reviewing different improvement alternatives for the site. Committee Member Hintz supported addressing safety concerns promptly, particularly the stairs and potential installation of railings, and suggested larger improvements could be planned in phases. Committee Member Sorenson directed staff to obtain an updated quote from Luke Busker Masonry and bring the item back to the Parks & Public Works Committee for further discussion and direction on next steps. Review and Discussion on Magee Park Sign Layout City Planner Luke Wiese presented the Magee Park Sign Layout map. The map identifies proposed signage locations throughout the park and shows different sign types including informational, safety, directional, trail marker, and boundary signs. Kris Sampson, 611 Lake St, commented on including signs that identify park rules and permitted uses. Sampson also suggested considering the multiple transportation and recreational uses accommodated on the trail system. The Committee agreed that incorporating rules and using information into the signage plan would be beneficial. Discussion on Transportation Resolution Requested from the League of Wisconsin Municipalities City Administrator Wolf presented information from the League of Wisconsin Municipalities regarding a proposed transportation funding resolution. The resolution is intended to advocate for a long-term transportation funding solution at the State level ahead of development of the 2027–2029 biennial budget. Discussion included increasing transportation costs, transportation aid not keeping pace with inflation, and the impacts these funding trends have on local roadway maintenance and infrastructure responsibilities. Committee member Sorenson made a recommendation to the City Council to adopt the resolution provided by the League of Wisconsin Municipalities, Bettis seconded; motion passed without a negative voice (2-0). 3. Other Business City Administrator Wolf explained that the motorized boat launch has gotten repeatedly hit this spring. The rubber rail along the dock has been ripped off multiple times by passing boats. Committee member Bettis attested to this happening and suggesting getting better material to prevent it from getting ripped off. The dock will have continual issues if the issue is not addressed properly. Committee member Bettis told staff he would provide an example of a product that could help. Kris Sampson explained that with the parks in Prescott it would be nice to have a cohesive opening date so the public could be more informed on when the parks will be fully opened. Sampson also had additional feedback on garbage in the parks and irrigation along the boat launch. Commissioner Bettis motioned to adjourn. Sorenson seconded; motion passed without a negative voice (2-0). The meeting was adjourned at 5:58 PM. The next Parks & Public Works Committee will be June 15, 2026, at 5:00 PM.

The applications for these licenses will be reviewed at the City Council meeting on June 22, 2026, at approximately 6:00 pm Published: June 10, 2026 June 17, 2026 To: Mayor and City Council From: Rashel Temmers, City Clerk Luke Wiese, Planner Date: June 22, 2026 Subject: Sidewalk Café Applications for Twisted Oak Coffee Shop and The Corner Italian Discussion Each year, businesses located within commercially zoned properties in downtown Prescott may apply for a Sidewalk Café License. These licenses are valid from July 1st until June 30th of the following year. The purpose of this license is to support the vitality and revitalization of downtown Prescott by allowing seasonal use of public sidewalks adjacent to food-serving establishments. When operated in compliance with the limitations outlined in City Ordinance § 506-10, sidewalk cafes generally have minimal impacts on parking availability and pedestrian traffic. A Sidewalk Café is defined as a group of tables, chairs, and related decorative or accessory items situated and maintained upon the public sidewalk for use in connection with the consumption of food and/or beverages sold to the public by an adjoining food establishment. When only food and non-alcoholic beverages are served, clearly delineated areas are not required, although they can be beneficial in defining the café area and directing pedestrian traffic. However, if alcoholic beverages are served, a stanchion barrier is required pursuant to City Ordinance § 506-10.I(2), which states: The area in which the sidewalk cafe is authorized is clearly delineated and separated from the areas of the sidewalk by a stanchion barrier at a prescribed barrier height of three feet. The stanchions are to have manufactured weighted bases with the base edge placed so that the designated pedestrian walkway is not impeded. Stanchion barriers shall be secured with a base approved by the Director of Public Works. Over the past week, the city has received complaints regarding the sidewalk café area located at 202 Broad Street. Staff received separate sidewalk café plans from each establishment that do not coordinate with one another and appear to propose overlapping use of the same sidewalk space. The current table and chair configurations impede the pedestrian walkway and measure less than the width required by Section 506-10. Recommendation: Staff recommends denial of the sidewalk café applications submitted by Twisted Oak and The Corner Italian’s Sidewalk Café applications until both parties can reach an agreement and submit coordinated plans that comply with the requirements of Section 506-10.

The proposed 2026A borrowing combines these projects into a single General Obligation Promissory Note issuance to reduce overall issuance costs. The Fire Association members from Prescott, Oak Grove, and Clifton held a joint meeting on January 14, 2026, and agreed to move forward with the prepayment of Fire Engine #2 from Reliant Fire Apparatus, Inc. Prepayment of the apparatus resulted in total savings of approximately $147,730 for the Association members, with $83,910 attributable to the City of Prescott. Including accessory costs, the City's share of the fire engine project totals $836,692. The City's original Capital Improvement Plan included reconstruction of Orrin Road and the addition of a pedestrian trail. Following completion of the Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) planning grant with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT), the City Council approved a concept plan for pedestrian improvements along U.S. Highway 10 (see attached). The City subsequently applied for TAP grant funding for design and construction of the plans in October 2025. In May 2026, WisDOT notified the City that it had been awarded construction funding only, meaning the City would be responsible for 100% of the design costs. Because WisDOT currently anticipates construction occurring in 2030, the City must separately finance the design phase and delay borrowing for the local share of construction costs to comply with federal arbitrage requirements. Discussion On Wednesday, May 27 the City held a Council Workshop to discuss the TAP grant project. As part of that workshop the Council agreed to move forward with the TAP grant with the City taking on full design costs. As part of the May 27 meeting the Council also agreed to include costs designing a future street and storm sewer layout for Campbell Street. This will ensure that the TAP pedestrian improvements align any future street improvements in a coordinated manner to avoid any unnecessary reconstruction. The full project list with costs is below: Item Timeline Total City Cost TAP Grant Engineering and Design 2027-2029 $ 580,000 Orrin Road 2027 Mill and Overlay 2027 $ 457,627 Campbell Street Design (Street and Storm) 2027-2029 $ 108,000 Fire Engine Purchase 2027 $836, 692 $ 1,982,319 The estimated City share for the construction phase of the TAP project is approximately $1,391,860. Because construction is not expected until 2030, borrowing for these costs at this time would exceed the normal expenditure period associated with tax-exempt borrowing. Therefore, these costs will be incorporated into the City's anticipated 2028 or 2029 borrowing. Staff will update the Capital Improvement Plan later this year to reflect the revised timing and financing assumptions associated with the TAP project. Financing The proposed borrowing will be issued as General Obligation Promissory Notes, Series 2026A with a total borrowing cost of $2,075,000. Based on information provided by Ehlers & Associates, the financing assumptions include: • Additional $25,928 included in Underwriting Costs • Costs Related to Issuance (i.e. Attorney, Bond Counsel, Financial Advisor) include $65,350 • 20-year General Obligation Promissory Notes; • Level annual debt service payments; • 100 percent debt levy support; • Continued maintenance of substantial remaining debt capacity. The City's General Obligation debt remains well below the statutory debt limit, leaving significant capacity for future capital projects. The City met with Moody’s Ratings on June 17, which once again assigned the City a Aa3 Issuer Rating (see attached Moody’s Press Release). The sale of the bonds are to be completed Monday, June 22, at 10:00 am, which Ehlers will present at the meeting. A draft resolution is included, and the completed resolution will be available for Council at the meeting with the lowest bid. Recommendation 1.

To this effect, any proceeds of the Notes and any sums from time to time held in the Debt Service Account (or any other City account which will be used to pay principal and interest to become due on the Notes) in excess of amounts which under the applicable federal arbitrage 13 regulations may be invested without regard as to yield shall not be invested at a yield in excess of the applicable yield restrictions imposed by the arbitrage regulations on such investments after taking into account any applicable temporary periods or mi nor portion made available under the federal arbitrage regulations. B. The proceeds of the Notes and money in the Debt Service Account shall not be invested in obligations or deposits issued by, guaranteed by or insured by the United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof if and to the extent that such investment would cause the Notes to be federally guaranteed within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). C. The City hereby covenants not to use the proceeds of the Notes, or to cause or permit them to be used, in such a manner as to cause the Notes to be “private activity bonds” within the meaning of Sections 103 and 141 through 150 of the Code. 6.03 A. The Common Council covenants and certifies to and for the benefit of the owners of the Notes that no use will be made of the proceeds of the Notes which will cause the Notes to be arbitrage bonds within the meaning of Section 148(a) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. Pursuant to such covenant, unless the Notes qualify under one or more of the arbitrage rebate exceptions, the Common Council hereby agrees to comply throughout the term of the Notes with the requirements of Section 148 of the Code and any Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder; to this end, the City shall: (1) maintain records identifying all “gross proceeds” (as defined in Section 148(f)(6)(B) of the Code) attributable to the Notes, the yield at which such gross proceeds are invested, any arbitrage profit derived therefrom (earnings in excess of the yield on the Notes) and any earnings derived from the investment of such arbitrage profit; (2) make, or cause to be made as of the end of each Bond Year, the annual determinations of the amount, if any, of excess arbitrage required to be paid to the United States by the City (hereinafter, the “Rebate Amount”); (3) pay, or cause to be paid, to the United States at least once every five Bond Years the amount, if any, which is required to be paid to the United States, including the last installment which shall be made no later than 60 days after the day on which the Notes are paid in full; (4) not invest, or permit to be invested, “gross proceeds” in any acquired non - purpose obligations so as to deflect arbitrage otherwise payable to the United States as a “prohibited payment” to a third party; (5) retain all records of the annual determinations of the foregoing amounts until six years after the Notes have been fully paid; and (6) in order to comply with the foregoing paragraph, the Common Council shall determine the Rebate Amount within 30 days after the close of each Bond Year and upon 14 payment in full of the Notes ; upon each such determination, the Common Council shall deposit in the Rebate Fund the Rebate Amount so determined; the Common Council shall separately account for the earnings from the investment of the Rebate Amount and such earnings shall become part of the Rebate Amount. B. For purposes of this Section, “Bond Year” shall mean the 12- month period beginning on the date of issuance of the Notes or such other 12 -month period designated by the Common Council which is permitted by the Code or any Treasury Regulation promulgated thereunder. C. The City shall use its best efforts to comply with any f ederal procedural requirements which may apply in order to effectuate the designation made by this section. 6.04. In o rder to qualify the Notes as “qualified tax -exempt obligations” within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code, the City hereby makes the following factual statements and representations: (1) the Notes are not “private activity bonds” as defined in Section 141 of the Code; (2) the City hereby designates the Notes as “qualified tax-exempt obligations” for purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code; (3) the reasonably anticipated amount of tax- exempt obligations (other than private activity bonds, treating qualified 501(c)(3) bonds as not being private activity bonds) which will be issued by the City (and all entities whose obligations will be aggregated with those of the City) during the calendar year in which the Notes were issued will not exceed $10,000,000; and (4) not more than $10,000,000 of obligations issued by the City during the calendar year in which the Notes were issued have been designated for the purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code. Section 7. Continuing Disclosure. The City acknowledges that the Notes are subject to the continuing disclosure requirements of Rule 15c2- 12 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (17 C.F.R. § 240.15c2-12) (the “Rule”). The Rule governs the obligations of certain underwriters to require that issuers of municipal bonds enter into agreements for the benefit of the bondholders to provide continuing disclosure with respect to such bonds. To provide for the public availability of certain information relating to the Notes and the security therefor and to permit underwriters of the Notes to comply with the Rule, which will enhance the marketability of the Notes, the Mayor and the City Clerk are hereby authorized and directed to execute a Continuing Disclosure Certificate substantially in the form of the Certificate currently on file in the office of the City. Section 8. Post-Issuance Tax Compliance. The Common Council has previously approved a Post -Issuance Debt Compliance Policy and Post -Issuance Debt Compliance 15 Procedures which applies to qualifying obligations to provide for compliance with all applicable federal regulations for tax -exempt obligations or tax- advantaged obligations (collectively, the “Policy and Procedures”).

We maintain the city's Aa3 issuer rating and the Aa3 ratings on its outstanding general obligation unlimited tax (GOULT) debt. Following the sale, the city will have roughly $13 million in total debt outstanding. RATINGS RATIONALE The Aa3 issuer rating balances the city’s solid local economy and robust financial ratios against its smaller operating size and lower resident income ratio. The city is located on the outer edge of the Twin Cities metro area and its local economy benefits from tourism activity, which supports its full value per capita of $150,000 and helps offset its lower resident income ratio of only 88%. Finances are strong; with available fund balance and liquidity ratios around 120% and 155% in fiscal 2024 (year-end December 31), respectively. The city’s scale of operations is relatively small, with total revenue of only about $8.7 million. Preliminary financial results for fiscal year 2025 (unaudited) indicate balanced results, and the city’s fiscal year 2026 budget projects continued stability driven by continued economic development and steady population increases. Following this sale, the city’s long-term liabilities ratio will be around 170%. Leverage should remain moderate as the city borrows regularly for capital needs. The Aa3 rating on the GOULT bonds is at the same level as the Aa3 issuer rating because of the town's full faith and credit pledge and the authority to levy a dedicated property tax unlimited as to rate and amount to pay the bonds. RATING OUTLOOK We do not assign outlooks to local governments with this amount of debt. FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OF THE RATINGS • Economic growth that drives growth in the resident income ratio and full value per capita or revenue growth that drives growth in size of operations closer to $10 million annually • Long-term liabilities ratio declining below 120% DRAFT - CONFIDENTIAL Press Release DRAFT – CONFIDENTIAL 2 FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO A DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS • Deterioration of fund balance below 35% • Growth in long-term liabilities above 250% PROFILE The city of Prescott is located on the border between the states of Minnesota (Aaa stable) and Wisconsin (Aa1 stable). The city provides public safety, public works, utility and recreation services to a population of around 4,500 residents.

To: Mayor and Council From: Matt Wolf, City Administrator Date: June 18, 2026 Subject: Well #4 Reimbursement Resolution Background On April 10, 2024, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released new drinking water regulations requiring the City of Prescott to address PFAS contamination within its municipal water system. In response, the City engaged CBS Squared to evaluate long-term alternatives for Wells #2 and #4 and to develop a strategy to maintain regulatory compliance. The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is expected to fully implement the standards over a three-year period, after which the City will have up to two additional years to comply. Following completion of the Water Supply and Treatment Engineering Report, the Common Council held a workshop to review alternatives and ultimately favored treatment of Well #4. On August 11, 2025, the Council adopted Resolution 45-25 approving a Professional Services Agreement with CBS Squared for engineering and related services associated with PFAS treatment, future water supply improvements, and State Drinking Water Loan Program (SDWLP) funding applications. The agreement included engineering services for the Well #4 Water Treatment Plant, Well #5 test well, and watermain looping improvements. CBS Squared has since completed the preliminary design and developed an estimate of probable costs for the Well #4 Water Treatment Plant Upgrade (see attached) through Anion Exchange Treatment. The current project estimate is approximately $4,427,000, including construction, contingency, engineering, legal expenses, interim interest, bonding costs, and financial advisor services. Discussion The City intends to finance the Well #4 Water Treatment Plant project through the Wisconsin Safe Drinking Water Loan Program (SDWLP) just as we did with the Well #3 improvements. Because project expenditures may occur prior to receiving loan proceeds, the City is required to adopt a reimbursement resolution declaring its official intent to reimburse expenditures from future borrowing proceeds. The proposed resolution establishes a maximum reimbursement amount of $5,000,000. While the current estimated project cost is approximately $4.43 million, the reimbursement amount has been rounded upward to provide flexibility should construction bids exceed estimates or additional project modifications become necessary. The proposed resolution authorizes reimbursement from future SDWLP borrowing and establishes the City's intent under Treasury Regulation Section 1.150-2. Staff continues to work with the Wisconsin DNR and the SDWLP program to determine the amount of principal forgiveness that may be available for the project. Based on current guidance from Noah Balgooyen, SDWLP Program Coordinator, the project may qualify for up to 70 percent principal forgiveness. In addition to pursuing SDWLP assistance, the City has sought Congressional Discretionary Spending support through Congressman Van Orden’s and Senator Baldwin’s office. The latest update is that the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies recently completed its initial markup of the appropriations bill, and the City of Prescott's Well #4 project was included in the bill at a funding level of $700,000. However, any Congressional Discretionary Spending (CDS) funding received for the same project would reduce the amount of principal forgiveness awarded through the SDWLP. As explained by the SDWLP Program Coordinator, an example project with estimated costs of $4,427,200 and an initial principal forgiveness award of 70 percent ($3,098,900) would see that amount reduced by any CDS award received. Assuming a $700,000 CDS award, the revised principal forgiveness amount would be approximately $2,398,900, representing approximately 54.2 percent of total project costs. The City is asking for clarification from the DNR on how this funding arrangement would work. Adoption of the reimbursement resolution does not obligate the City to borrow the full $5,000,000 amount. Rather, it preserves the City's ability to reimburse eligible project costs with future borrowing proceeds and ensures compliance with federal tax regulations associated with the Safe Drinking Water Loan Program. The full application to the Safe Drinking Water Loan Program is due at the end of June with the DNR making final funding decisions later this year.

The original proposal totaled $72,375 and included the following work: • Demolition and replacement of existing sidewalks and concrete stairs; • Concrete pumping; • Removal of existing mortar and tuckpointing of fieldstone stairway walls; • Fabrication and installation of new stone plinths for the planter bowls; • Tuckpointing and resetting limestone wall stones along the existing retaining walls; • Restoration and recoating of bench seats; • Removal and restoration of cast iron bowls and concrete stands; and • Mobilization and delivery costs. During the meeting, the Committee directed staff to remove several items from the project in order to preserve funding for future park maintenance needs. The following items were removed from the scope of work: 1. Fabrication and installation of new stone plinths for the planter bowls. City staff will remove the existing plinths and planter bowls prior to repairs. 2. Restoration and recoating of the bench seats. City staff will remove the benches prior to repairs. 3. Removal and restoration of the cast iron bowls and concrete stands. City staff will remove the cast iron bowls prior to repairs. The Committee also requested pricing for the addition of a handrail at the non-motorized boat launch. Discussion Luke Busker Masonry has provided an updated proposal totaling $62,052 after removing the items identified by the Parks and Public Works Committee. In addition, after reviewing the site on June 15, 2026, Luke Busker Masonry provided a separate proposal for additional improvements. These improvements include shoreline stabilization with boulders and the construction of a ramp to provide easier access to the water for kayakers. The proposal for these improvements is attached and totals $69,600. Financing After reviewing the scope of work, staff recommends proceeding with the $62,052 repair and maintenance project. The City previously loaned $105,000 from the Capital Fund to Tax Increment District No. 4. These funds are scheduled to be repaid to the Capital Fund this year and are intended to be used for future one-time capital expenditures. Staff recommends utilizing these repaid Capital Fund dollars to finance the proposed repairs. With this approach, the second phase of improvements could be reviewed later this year as part of the Capital Improvement Plan process. Delaying the additional improvements would also allow staff to determine how much funding remains in the 2026 Parks Escrow budget line item and whether any remaining balance should be transferred to the Parks Improvement Fund to support future park projects and maintenance needs.

The report is completed for Prescott's Wastewater Treatment Facility under WPDES Permit No. 0022403 and serves as a self-audit of the overall performance of the wastewater system. In essence, the CMAR functions as a report card for the City's wastewater operations. The report includes monthly flow data and sampling results for both influent and effluent wastewater quality. Monthly averages and laboratory testing results are evaluated to determine how effectively the treatment facility is operating and to identify areas that may require additional attention. Performance measures, including Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Total Suspended Solids (TSS), phosphorus removal, and energy consumption, are used to calculate the overall treatment efficiency of the facility. The full 2025 CMAR can be found at: https://www.prescottwi.gov/DocumentCenter/View/1127/2025-CMAR-Report Prescott's Wastewater Treatment Facility received an overall score of 2.34 out of 4.00 in 2025, compared to a score of 3.66 out of 4.00 in 2024. The primary reason for the decrease was the high- strength wastewater discharges from SV Labs between July and September 2025. These discharges resulted in a grade of D for BOD/COD, a grade of B for Total Suspended Solids (TSS), and a grade of F for phosphorus removal for the year. As a result of these elevated discharges, the City approved Resolution 53-25 in October 2025, authorizing staff to discontinue sewer service to SV Labs if the company failed to achieve compliance. Since that time, SV Labs has taken corrective actions and has returned to compliance. However, the impacts from the 2025 discharges are reflected in the lower overall CMAR score for the year. Should similar issues occur in the future, the City will work promptly to address them using the enforcement measures authorized by the Common Council through Resolution 53-25. Recommendation Approve Resolution 32-26 Informing the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources on the Prescott Wastewater Treatment Plant Attachments 1. Resolution 32-26 RESOLUTION 32-26 CITY OF PRESCOTT, WISCONSIN RESOLUTION INFORMING THE WISCONSIN DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES ON THE PRESCOTT WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT BE IT RESOLVED, that the City of Prescott informs the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, that the following actions were taken by the City Council of the City of Prescott. 1. Reviewed the Compliance Maintenance Annual Report which is attached to this resolution 2. Set forth the following actions necessary to maintain effluent requirements contained in the WPDES Permit: (a) Continued education of staff (b) Continued compliance according to operation and maintenance manuals (c) Continued evaluation of facility and efficiency of plant in relation to service area and future growth patterns (d) Continue to work on phosphorous reduction on effluent discharge Passed by a Unanimous/Majority vote of the City Council of the City of Prescott on June 22, 2026. ________________________________ Michael H. Gerke, Mayor ATTEST: __________________________________ Rashel Temmers, City Clerk To: Mayor and City Council From: Matt Wolf, City Administrator Date: June 18, 2026 Subject: Approving Professional Services Agreement with Ayers Associates for Prescott Business Park Concept Master Planning from TID #6 Background At its March 23, 2026 meeting, the City approved an agreement with IAG Commercial to provide brokerage services for the marketing and promotion of the approximately 150- acre Prescott Business Park. During discussions with IAG regarding strategies to improve the marketability of the property, it was recommended that the City consider preparing a master planning document and conceptual site layout to provide prospective developers and businesses with a clearer vision of the type of development and long-term character desired in the Business Park and along the USH 10 corridor. Staff subsequently requested proposals from ISG and Ayres Associates for preparation of a conceptual master plan for the Business Park. These proposals were reviewed by the City Council at a workshop held on May 27, 2026. Discussion Ayres Associates submitted an updated proposal dated June 18, 2026, which focuses on creating a three-dimensional model and visualization package for Prescott Business Park. With the intent to provide realistic, market-ready images that can be used for economic development, marketing, recruitment, and funding discussions. The proposal would utilize the preferred site concept and existing CAD information to develop a detailed 3D model showing roadways, parcels, grading, and stormwater features. The model would also incorporate surrounding topography and adjacent land uses to provide context and scale. Ayres would create realistic development scenarios with representative buildings, vehicles, landscaping, and other site features intended to demonstrate how the Business Park could develop over time. The scope of services includes: • Development of a complete three-dimensional digital model of the preferred concept. • Creation of targeted visual perspectives illustrating market-ready development scenarios. • Production of approximately 10 to 20 high-quality rendered images suitable for presentations and marketing materials. • Up to two virtual review meetings with City staff and the project team. • Refinement of the model and renderings based upon feedback received during the review process. Ayres anticipates completing the work within approximately three months following authorization to proceed. The proposed lump sum fee for the work is $11,000. The financing for this work would come from Tax Increment District No. 6, which will have $16,747 in funding for 2026 to cover the costs. The final product will provide the City and IAG Commercial with better marketing materials to help prospective developers and industries understand the vision of the Prescott Business Park. In addition, the rendering visuals can be used for any potential presentations, grant applications, and future infrastructure improvements/site development.

Using base linework prepared by others, our team will translate the preferred site concept into a realistic, buildable vision that communicates how the park can function, grow, and compete in the market. In our experience working across a wide range of projects—from community parks and public spaces to private and industrial developments—3D modeling and visualization consistently helps move projects to the next level. It takes ideas off the page and turns them into something people can understand, react to, and get behind. More than just a graphic exercise, it becomes a tool for decision-making, alignment, and momentum. Our integrated team of landscape architects and engineers will build and test a variety of development scenarios within the model, helping the City explore how the site can perform under different conditions and uses. This process not only strengthens the preferred concept, but also helps identify opportunities and refinements that may not be apparent in traditional plan drawings alone. We will look beyond simply producing images to ensuring the model adds real value—highlighting opportunities, supporting conversations, and helping position the park for successful implementation. We appreciate the opportunity to support the City in advancing this vision. Sincerely, Ayres Associates Inc.

The work focused on rethinking a vacant and deteriorated site into a place that could meaningfully support community vitality, economic reinvestment, and environmental responsibility. From the beginning, the project emphasized understanding local context and aspirations to ensure redevelopment ideas were grounded in what mattered most to the community. A core component of the planning effort was a deliberately collaborative process that paired technical analysis with deep community listening. Ayres completed a market and infrastructure evaluation to test the feasibility of potential reuse scenarios while leading a robust engagement program that included workshops, surveys, and interactive charrette sessions. Community input gathered through these efforts directly shaped how reuse options were framed, ensuring the resulting concepts felt authentic, locally informed, and achievable rather than generic or prescriptive. The planning process concluded with a final presentation and strategy prepared for City Council consideration, providing Peshtigo with a clear, community-supported framework for moving redevelopment forward.

By expanding on the existing program and improving the existing amenities, this community space will be transformed into a space that, through thoughtful design, will generate user experiences that will leave lasting impressions. The Hub is part community park, part neighborhood park that incorporates an ambitious and robust program. The park programming that focuses on neighborhood user experience will allow local residents to play, exercise, gather, and connect. During the design process, careful consideration was given to the proximity and location of programming to allow for flexibility of use but also the efficient layout of major elements. The community park side is an adaptable space that can scale depending on the level of the event. From farmers’ markets being held under the community building to regular events at the community building, the community side of this park will ensure a steady stream of people and promote a high level of use. Understanding the end use and the specific need for various park elements allowed our team to thoughtfully phase the project. The end result of this project will capture the culture and promote the identity of its community. Client Information • Client: City of Fitchburg • Design Completed: 2020 • Contact: Wade Thompson, Community Development Planner, 608.270.4258, wade.thompson@fitchburgwi.gov PROJECT STATUS: PHASE 1 START 2026 Community HUB 9 AYRES | Prescott, WI Industrial Park Master Planning RFP | City of Prescott, WI Project Understanding Text Column Text Column The City of Prescott is advancing a preferred concept for the Ryden Road Industrial Park expansion and requires clear, compelling visual tools to communicate the vision to stakeholders, decision- makers, and potential investors. Traditional plan drawings alone can limit understanding of scale, character, and development potential—particularly for audiences outside the technical design team. Three-dimensional visualization will bridge that gap by translating the preferred concept into a realistic and accessible representation. These visualizations will help the City and its partners quickly grasp how the site can develop, how infrastructure supports growth, and how the park may function and look over time. Just as importantly, they will serve as a tool for economic development—supporting marketing, recruitment, and funding discussions. Project Approach Our approach focuses on building a clear, credible, and market-ready visual story of the preferred concept—grounded in the design while allowing flexibility to communicate development potential. 1. Model Development Grounded in Design We will translate the preferred concept plan into a coordinated 3D model that reflects the intended site organization, including roadways, parcels, grading, and stormwater features. This ensures the visuals remain accurate and aligned with the underlying design work. 2. Context and Scale Definition To make the model meaningful, we will incorporate surrounding context such as adjacent land uses, topography, and key site edges. This helps viewers understand how the industrial park fits within the broader landscape and reinforces a sense of scale. 3. Market-Aware Visualization Rather than generic imagery, we will populate the model with building types, site elements, and activity that reflect realistic industrial users and development scenarios. This positions the park as “ready for investment” rather than abstract or conceptual. 4. Placemaking and Storytelling Targeted vignettes will be developed to illustrate key moments—such as site entries, internal road corridors, and representative development parcels. These views will highlight functionality, identity, and development potential in a way that resonates with both technical and non-technical audiences. 5. Iterative Refinement We will present initial visualizations to the project team and use feedback to refine both the model and the final imagery. This ensures that the visuals accurately reflect the City’s priorities and messaging goals. 6. Deliverables for Decision-Making and Marketing Final renderings will be produced at a quality and format suitable for presentations, public engagement, and economic development materials—giving the City a versatile toolset for ongoing use beyond the planning process. 10 AYRES | Prescott, WI Industrial Park Master Planning RFP | City of Prescott, WI Scope of Services 3D Modeling & Visualization of Preferred Concept Three-dimensional visualization will support design understanding, stakeholder communication, and decision- making by allowing the City to experience the proposed industrial park in a realistic and intuitive way.
