Tonight we had a great meeting at the American Legion hall of West Bend. Our featured speaker was West Bend Mayor Joel Ongert. He had a great presentation and took a lot of citizens questions. There was a lot said. Again, it's an honor to serve, and the good this organization gives so much back to the people. If you are a veteran, I really encourage you to join up and help out. It's 40 bucks a year, but the things they do are priceless for so many people. So many younger vets out there could make a huge difference.

Hi everyone. Election day is a month away. I would encourage everyone to vote, and if possible, do it in person. In West Bend, the voting time is typically 10 minutes or less. Please vote on the day if you can. I get it in big cities where long lines make it a royal pain, but here, there are few legit reasons. The absentee votes take clerks far longer to verify and tabulate, compared to quickly voting and scanning it in. At City Hall, it takes the team all day to process the few thousand votes turned in early. So, please, just vote in person if you can.

Greetings everyone, your friendly neighborhood Alderman has news to share! We have been deliberating about how to spend the $1.5 million from selling the UW center for a bit now. The people have insisted we fix the roads, and that's what we are doing! Look at the map pictured and the colored roads are going to get some TLC. Many are in District 1! A section of Salisbury which is awful, Keister north and south is mainly gravel and potholes and will get lead laterals replacement at that time, a small section on Jefferson at the park there. All are pretty bad except that part by the park. Now, the biggest news is about half of the money will be used to work on Park Avenue from main street west to around 12th street, possibly further dependingon funds. This won't happen until 2028 as first, our DPW will replace the water mains in that stretch as there have been numerous failures there.(PLUS other areas nearby) Then, we will put all new blacktop over it. This section is by far the worst part of Park. The Council agreed that this critical road that feeds our most important park in the city should be a priority. Im very pleased with this outcome as all of District 1 residents are agreed that Park MUST be fixed.
Next I will be lobbying to have the rest of Park repaved in 2028 with that upcoming budgeting. 1st steps so far, and the city is currently putting together the 2027 budget for our approval. But, Park Ave is now truly on the radar for the city.
This set of repairs will be approved at the next council meeting next Monday. I am very excited!

Today I was honored to volunteer for our Family Day here in West Bend for our Army National Guard airbase. This facility operates a number of helicopters that are used for medevac missions, disaster support, search and rescue. We set up and serve the soldiers and their loved ones a nice lunch, treats like ice cream, activities for the kids. It's pretty cool. One exciting thing was the small helicopter I filmed landing was the pilot's last flight. He was retiring from service and I was able to film the action. I had Jen along and we had never seen this before.

I highly suggest avoiding Washington Ave headed west for a few weeks in peak hours. That lane closure is just terrible!

Packed house at the Columbian for Bingo night! Im getting skunked so far.

Hi folks!
What's going on in district 1? Well, we have a few topics. 1. Repeat water main failures in our area! The pipes that were installed in the 70s are apparently failing prematurely. On 12th street, a whole line will be replaced next spring. 2. Road repairs! The city wanted to replaced several areas in the city, like Keister north and south, west Park, south River road, and a small part of Jefferson by the park there. We on the council questioned how these were selected and asked the city administrator to get pricing to repave parts of PARK AVE from main past Regner Park. Stay tuned for more. We have overwhelming support from multiple aldermen and the mayor to work on Park Ave. All area residents agree!

Ok, I made it 20 seconds. Nobody from District 1 beat me so technically im undefeated. But, some 12 yr old kid named Simon made it 63 seconds to win 150 bucks.
