City Council Approves New Employment Agreement for City Administrator Carl Warwick
The City Council approved an addendum to the City Administrator Carl Warwick's employment agreement, increasing his salary and establishing a three-year term. This decision was made following a recruitment process where Warwick was a top candidate for another municipality, prompting a review of his compensation and tenure with Glendale. The addendum includes a salary increase to $250,000, a three-year term with specific conditions for departure, and provisions for future cost of living adjustments. The council's decision aimed to retain Warwick, citing economic considerations, the cost of hiring a new administrator, and his successful leadership.
Glendale Approves Joint Salt Storage Facility Agreement with Shorewood and Whitefish Bay
The Council approved an intergovernmental agreement with the villages of Shorewood and Whitefish Bay for the construction and operation of a joint salt storage facility. The facility's capacity is increased from 1,200 to 2,000 tons, with a cost increase from approximately $980,000 to $1.1 million. Glendale's share of the cost is reduced by more than 50% to $460,000 through a cost-sharing formula based on salt allocation percentages. Glendale will act as the fiscal agent for construction payments, with reimbursements from the partner villages. The agreement also outlines terms for operational costs, use of equipment, utilities, and personnel time for salt management. Discussions included concerns about indemnification clauses and liability for pre-existing conditions and future damages.
City Council Approves Transfer of CDA Properties for Potential Redevelopment
The Council approved the transfer of four properties located on North Hubard and one on East Rind Way from the Community Development Authority (CDA) to the City of Glendale at no cost. These properties are designated for potential redevelopment, as outlined in item D, which involves a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Village of Shorewood for their use as a public works facility. The transfer allows the city to consolidate these assets for future development or sale.
City of Glendale and Village of Shorewood Sign MOU for Hubard Avenue Redevelopment
The Council approved a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Village of Shorewood concerning the redevelopment of city-owned properties along Hubard Avenue. Shorewood plans to purchase these properties for a much-needed public works facility. The non-binding MOU establishes the city's intent to work with Shorewood on the sale, zoning changes, and site plan review for this development. Discussions also touched upon potential joint operations with Whitefish Bay and the financial implications of selling city property.
Glendale Considers Riverfront Redevelopment Project with Potential Riverwalk and Park Enhancements
The council is reviewing proposals for the redevelopment of the riverfront property near Lexington, including a potential Riverwalk and park. AB Data, a property owner in the area, has expressed a desire to 'see the river' and clean up the surroundings, proposing to thin trees and collaborating with the city on public enhancements. The city is exploring options to use these properties to attract people to Glendale, enhance recreational opportunities (fishing, boat launch), and connect to the city's trail system. The proposal is in its early stages, seeking council input on the direction and investment level. Key considerations include securing necessary easements from the county, exploring CDBG funding, addressing potential impacts on nearby residents, and considering parking solutions. The development would primarily occur on AB Data's property but may involve county-owned land requiring an easement or acquisition.
