Motion DeJager, second Daute to extend deadline for 101 Fond du Lac Street (Waupun Taxi) application which has been delayed by contractor and weather issues until May 31, 2026. Daute notes that the work is in process and it is looking like a good improvement to the building. Carried unanimously. Administrator Schlieve discusses the proposed project for 313 E Main Street, home to Radio Plus. Jeff Collien worked with staff on the submitted application. He plans to replace windows, front door and will complete some tuckpointing and paint the exterior. Motion DeJager, second VerHage to approve the application for a 50% match, capped at $5,000. Discussion about the contributions made by Collien to the downtown and the possibility of providing a larger grant was had. Administrator Schlieve points out that there are limited grant funds available this year. No further discussion. Motion and second carried unanimously. Melanie Williams is present as owner of 309 and 311 E Main Street. Melanie is the winner of the Main Street Makeover Contest, which will provide $10,000 and technical assistance to support a façade makeover. Administrator Schlieve notes that Melanie is working to secure matching funds right now through the BID and CDA. Melanie’s project is in the design phase with WEDC and work will be completed over the summer. The design as shown is an illustration of what Melanie hopes to accomplish with this makeover. Once the final design is completed by WEDC partners, Willaims will return for final design review. Because this is two buildings, the request is for $10,000 combined. Motion DeJager, second Daute to approve $10,000 combined for the project with the contingency that the final design is presented to CDA prior to work commencing. Discussion on limiting approval until design is approved was had but group consensus was that requiring design approval satisfies this concern. Carried unanimously.

They will be working with the City on agreements for funding to better leverage BID as well as room tax funds. Spring Wine Walk is May 1 and ticket sales are in process.
