Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Pewaukee public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Amtrak Hiawatha West station grant support
The city sent a support letter for a federal grant for a new Amtrak station, but a future request for city money for parking, platform and security improvements is expected. Some residents in Alderperson Brown's district don't want tax dollars subsidizing a station they'd never use; others see it as a forward-looking investment with paid parking offsetting costs.
Greenhill/Yench Road Reconstruction
Rebuilding three failing roads (PASER rating 2) with a new curb on Yench Road to save mature trees instead of regrading steep ditches. Residents objected, saying there's no drainage problem and questioning why they're paying for a curb they don't want. Construction should start mid-to-late June and last about two months.
