Another resolution transferring remaining funds allocated to Girls Day at City Hall to Bronzeville Week was held; committee members discussed options for reconsideration and noted that certain actions would require either a special council meeting or taking the item out of committee at full council.

A communication from the Department of Administration providing a status update on the residential preference program (the MORE ordinance/residential preference program) was discussed; committee members said new leadership in the department would be contacted for follow-up and the item was held at the call of the chair for future discussion.

A substitute ordinance relating to the membership of an emerging youth achievement accounts advisory council was also held at the call of the chair. Committee members noted the items would return for further consideration at subsequent meetings or at full council where appropriate.

The proposed expansion would add commercial properties — including the Ascension Columbia St. Mary’s Hospital campus and adjacent businesses — and is expected to increase assessed BID revenue by roughly $34,000 based on the 2024 assessments presented to the committee.

Matthew Regick, neighborhood business development administrator in the Department of City Development, joined Ryan Lasig and Joey Wisniewski from the East Side BID to present the proposal. Lasig said the BID’s current assessment rate is $5 per $1,000 of assessed value with a $5,000 maximum assessment per property and that the proposed expansion would incorporate a set of properties that have requested BID services. Lasig said the expansion would enable additional beautification, sanitation, marketing and community events.

Lasig described outreach and letters of support from property and business owners, and singled out ongoing conversations with Ascension Columbia St. Mary’s leadership. He said the BID had engaged hospital leadership, including the hospital’s CEO, and had secured their support for inclusion.

Alderman Brower expressed support; Alderman Brower also told the committee he would introduce an amendment at full council to remove approximately six residential properties from the annexation if those residents do not wish to participate. The committee’s recommendation was adoption of the substitute resolution; Alderman Jackson moved for adoption and the transcript records the committee adopting the measure by unanimous consent with “hearing no objections.” The amendment Brower described would be offered at the council floor on the 23rd.

The committee record includes details on the BID’s activities — marketing and promotions, graffiti removal, beautification projects such as Black Cat Alley and Ivanhoe Plaza, and large events including the Summer Solstice Music Festival and Milwaukee Film — as context for the expansion.

Alderman Peter Bergellis introduced the item and invited Michael Arntz, president of Oklahoma Avenue Lutheran Church and a Live Laugh Loaves organizer, to brief the committee. Arntz said his organization distributes food to residents across the city and plans a free Thanksgiving lunch open to anyone who wants to attend. He said the organization currently distributes between 6,000 and 7,000 food items per week through its corner distribution and partner pantries.

Arntz told the committee the meal will provide camaraderie as well as food for people who may not have family to spend the holiday with; he said the event will be free and open to everyone. Alderman Jackson moved for the committee to approve the appropriation; the motion was ordered after “hearing no objection.”

The committee recorded the appropriation as qualifying under the community economic development fund guidelines and ordered the measure on the committee record.

Peksa Patel, who said she owns Honey Dip Donuts on 27th Street and has lived in the U.S. for 30 years, told the committee she wanted to “help the businesses to the community” and serve as a small-business owner on the Business Improvement Division (BID) board. Alderman Chambers moved for Patel’s confirmation and the record shows the confirmation was ordered after “hearing no objection.”

Jason McNeil described his small corner store inside the former Trinity Village campus, saying the store primarily serves seniors living in the adjacent senior complex. Alderman Jackson moved to confirm McNeil; the transcript records the confirmation as approved by unanimous consent.

Frank Decken, who said he is employed by Zilber Limited and has worked there for more than 20 years, said he values the RiverWalk as a city asset and offered to bring his experience to stewardship of that asset. Alderman Demetria Evans moved for Decken’s confirmation; the committee confirmed the appointment by unanimous consent.

The committee also confirmed a reappointment for Ted Mackham to Business Improvement Division number 37; the chair noted Mackham’s long record in development and Alderman Chambers moved for confirmation. That reappointment was ordered without objection.

Each confirmation was recorded in the transcript as moved and approved by unanimous consent; the committee did not record roll-call tallies on the record for those items.

Jim Lazarski, the city clerk, described the first nominee, saying the student “is a very, very enthusiastic member, and I am glad to recommend him to you today,” referring to Mateo de la Cruz, a student in the Milwaukee Public Schools system and a member of the MPS superintendent’s advisory council who attends Ronald Reagan College Preparatory High School.

Lazarski also presented Corry Caldwell’s nomination for the 10th Aldermanic District; the committee recorded the nomination of Corey Cadwell (transcript: “Corey Cadwell”) for the 10th District. Both nominations were confirmed by unanimous consent on the committee record after a motion to confirm was offered and there was “hearing no objection.”

An alderman asked to add a third nominee, Adeline Elise Chavez, to represent the 11th Aldermanic District. The committee agreed to add her nomination to the file and to offer that nomination for confirmation on the 23rd (referred to in the record as the committee’s next full council appearance).

The committee did not take a roll-call vote in the transcript; confirmations were approved by unanimous consent as recorded on the committee record.

The committee chair closed the item after confirmation and moved on to other appointments and agenda items.
