POHLMAN, Mayor Date: CLERK'S CERTIFICATE OF ENACTMENT I hereby certify that the foregoing Ordinance was duly enacted by the City of Plymouth Common Council and approved by the Mayor on the dates indicated above. Dated: , 2026 ANNA VOIGT, City Clerk City of Plymouth 128 Smith St. - P.O. Box 107 Plymouth, WI 53073-0107 Telephone: (920) 893-1271 Facsimile: (920) 893-0183 Web Site: plymouthgov.com DATE: September 29, 2026 TO: Mayor and Common Council FROM: Tim Blakeslee, City Administrator/Utilities Manager RE: Discussion and Possible Action a Class “B” Beer and “Class C” Wine Alcohol License for Plymouth Intergenerational Coalition LTD Background: Plymouth Intergenerational Coalition LTD (Generations) is requesting a Class “B” Beer and “Class C” Wine license for the property. This is not a “Class B” liquor license, which is subject to a quota and allows the sale of intoxicating liquor. The requested licenses would allow Generations to serve beer and wine within the premises identified on the attached map and description. The licensed premises would specifically exclude tenant spaces, including Growing Generations, Family Resource Center, Safe Harbor, and the Sheboygan County ADRC. In the past, Generations has obtained temporary alcohol licenses when hosting events. Approval of the Class “B” Beer and “Class C” Wine licenses would eliminate the need to repeatedly obtain temporary licenses for qualifying events. The Health Department, Fire Department, and Police Department have completed the inspections required by code. Their reports are attached, and no concerns were identified. Recommendation: Approve Class “B” Beer and “Class C” Wine Alcohol License for Plymouth Intergenerational Coalition LTD Attachments: Application and Inspection Reports.

This group filing with WPPI will update the excess generation rates for the Pgs-1 and Pgs-2 tariffs to a MISO market based avoided cost rate. The updates aim to protect non-Pgs tariff ratepayers who have been supplementing the current excess generation rates. Recommendation: Approve Parallel Generation Tariff Filing with WPPI Attachments: • Sample PG Tariffs from Sturgeon Bay • PG Tariff Presentation RATE FILE Sheet No. 1 of 2 Schedule No. Pgs-1 Public Service Commission of Wisconsin Amendment No. 99 STURGEON BAY ELECTRIC UTILITY Parallel Generation (20 kW or less) -- Net Energy Billing EFFECTIVE: July 1, 2026 PSCW AUTHORIZATION: Final Decision in Docket 5780-TE-111 issued April 6, 2026 1. Effective In All territories served by the utility. 2. Availability Available for single-phase and three-phase customers generating power using renewable resource generators that satisfy the requirements of “qualifying facility” status under Part 292 of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s regulations under the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 where a part or all of the electrical requirements of the customer are supplied by the customer’s generating facilities located behind-the-meter (BTM) on the customer’s premises, where such facilities have a total generating capability of 20 kW alternating current (AC) or less, where such facilities are connected in parallel with the utility and where such facilities are approved by the utility. 3. Rate The customer shall be billed monthly on a net energy basis and shall pay the customer charge and energy charge(s) specified in the rate schedule under which the customer is served. When the energy produced exceeds energy consumed for the billing month, the customer shall be credited for the excess energy volumes at the energy credit component (multiplied by the loss factor) specified for BTM COGS in the utility’s Pgs-2 rate schedule, unless the customer qualifies for the rate described in the next paragraph. The buy-back energy rates will be reset annually for billing on or after February 1 of each year based on the most recent three-year average locational marginal price of energy in MISO at the WEC.WPPI commercial pricing node. The following customers will continue to be credited for net monthly excess generation at the energy rate specified in the rate schedule under which the customer purchases energy, including the monthly power cost adjustment clause (PCAC), until April 30, 2036: a) customers taking service under this rate schedule prior to April 6, 2026;. A customer that makes changes to the capacity or type of its generation facilities after April 6, 2026 will be treated as a new customer and shall be subject to the standard avoided cost rate. If, in any month, the customer’s bill has a credit balance of $100 or less, the amount shall be credited to subsequent bills until a debit balance is reestablished. If the credit balance is more than $100, the utility shall reimburse the customer by check upon request. Monthly credits shall be computed by taking the net excess kilowatt-hours produced times the applicable energy charge.

Effective In All territories served by the utility. 2. Availability Available for single-phase and three-phase customers generating power using renewable resource generators that satisfy the requirements of “qualifying facility” status under Part 292 of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s regulations under the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 who desire to sell excess generation to the utility from behind-the-meter (BTM) customer-owned generation systems (COGS), or who sell all generation to the utility from front-of-the-meter (FTM) COGS. For BTM COGS, a part or all of the electrical requirements of the customer are supplied by the COGS located on the customer’s premises. For FTM COGS, all of the generation is sold to the utility under an executed service agreement between the COGS and the utility, and all of the customer’s electricity usage is supplied separately by the utility under applicable retail service schedules. In either case, BTM or FTM, such facilities shall have a total generating capability of greater than 20 kW and less than or equal to 5 MW alternating current (AC), with such facilities connected in parallel with the utility, and where such facilities are approved by the utility. Customers not desiring to sell energy under this rate have the right to negotiate a buy-back rate. If, in lieu of taking service under this rate schedule, a customer elects to sell their excess generation to another utility or into the market administered by the Midcontinent Independent System Operator, Inc. (MISO) the utility shall transport the customer’s excess generation across the utility’s distribution system and shall recover actual costs of such transportation from the generating customer. 3. Rate Unless separately negotiated in accordance with paragraph 7 of this rate schedule, the utility shall, for all energy sold to the utility, credit the COGS at the applicable avoided cost rate specified below. The avoided cost rates will be reset annually for billing on or after February 1 of each year to reflect the then current value of each component shown in the table below: a. For BTM COGS: Customers shall receive monthly payments equal to the sum of the excess energy volume (in kWh) in each On-Peak Hour of the month multiplied by the seasonal on- peak buy-back rate plus the sum of the excess energy volume (in kWh) in each Off- Peak Hour of the month multiplied by the seasonal off-peak buy-back rate.

Box 107 Plymouth, WI 53073-0107 Telephone: (920) 893-3739 Facsimile: (920) 893-0183 Web Site: plymouthgov.com DATE: September 25, 2026 TO: Common Council & Mayor FROM: Jack Johnston, Assistant City Administrator/Community Development Director RE: Consideration of Request by Plymouth VFW for Military Banner Program Background: In August, City staff received a request from the Plymouth VFW to assist them to establish a fundraising program involving military recognition banners displayed along City streets. Under the proposed program, individual banners would recognize veterans by displaying their name, branch of military service, and photograph. The VFW has proposed that the banners be displayed from Memorial Day through Veterans Day, providing a visible tribute to veterans while also serving as a fundraising opportunity for the VFW. A similar program in Sheboygan Falls began last year and has proved successful. Public Works staff worked with the VFW and is comfortable with the request. Staff has established the following parameters for the program that the VFW has confirmed they are comfortable with: • Number of VFW Banners: 24 spots available. Location would be Mill Street between Milwaukee St. and Collins St. (entire length of downtown). These banners would be intermixed with other seasonal banners that are already up. • Dimensions of banners would match existing downtown banners. • Length of Fundraiser: City would like to propose a 2-year pilot program for 2027 and 2028 and then re-evaluate after that. The VFW would handle the sale and storage of the banners. DPW staff would put responsible for set up and tear down of the banners on an annual basis that aligns with the Memorial Day to Veterans Day proposal. This timeline also aligns when DPW changes out other season banners downtown. Staff Recommendation: Staff is comfortable with the request. Staff recommends the Common Council consider the request of the VFW. Copies Mailed/Emailed To: I. Jessica Arbucke: jessicaarbuckle8@gmail.com Attachments: I. Banner Example
