Village Board Agenda Supplement for June 3, 2019 Meeting (Trial Period)

The Village is preparing a "Supplement to Agenda" prior to every Village Board meeting. We are doing this on a trial period to see how well it is received by the public.

Here is a link to the supplement for the June 3, 2019 meeting:

Supplement

This is an unofficial version of the agenda in which the Village Administrator adds some summary and straight forward commentary on the agenda items to be considered during the upcoming meeting. The purpose is to help citizens better understand the agenda items and action requests that are before the Board. You might consider it a succinct summary of the memos and attachments included in the full meeting packet. We are asking for feedback on this new agenda supplement. Please reach out to Village Administrator Todd Schmidt with your feedback. 608-850-5227 or tschmidt@waunakee.com.

This will be tried for a couple of months before considering whether to continue, adjust or discontinue, so your feedback is important.

Mutts on Main

The Village of Waunakee’s annual Art on Main program rolls out once again with Mutts on Main. The fifth iteration of Waunakee’s original public art project aims to build on the past success of projects like Trains on Main (2017) and Barrels on Parade (2018) in developing the Village’s creative identity.

Presented in collaboration with Endres Mfg. Company and the Waunakee Area Chamber of Commerce, Mutts on Main invites the community to ‘bark up the right tree’ and submit artistic proposals. Artists will be assigned a mutt (German Pointer, Dachshund, or German Shepard) with a steel base to use as their canvas. Artists will also be provided with a $300 stipend, courtesy of the Waunakee Area Chamber of Commerce and Endres Mfg. Company Foundation.

The finished mutts will be on view at various businesses around the community from Monday, August 12 to Friday, September 13, 2019. After the mutts are removed from view, they will be auctioned off to the community at Wauktoberfest on Sunday, September 15, 2019. Proceeds will support future community projects through Create Waunakee and the Endres Mfg. Company Foundation.

Those interested in applying must currently live or work in the school district limits of the Village of Waunakee or be a graduate of Waunakee Community High School.

For more details on the project, timeline, and application requirements, visit the Village’s Mutts on Main webpage or contact Todd Schmidt, Village Administrator at tschmidt@waunakee.com or 608-850-5227.
