(Beaver Dam) After taking a week off for Labor Day, the Beaver Dam Common Council returns this evening with a full agenda featuring over two dozen ordinances and resolutions. Many of the items involve the downtown. The council will consider hiring MSA Professional Services as an environmental consultant in the removal of leaking underground storage tanks. The city has been awarded $117,000 in stimulus funds to address removal of possible contaminants in the downtown. The council will also consider a resolution considering the project plan for the newly created TIF District #4, which is located in the downtown area. And the council will also vote on developers agreements related to the old Weyco Shoe Factory property and the former Thomas Chevrolet property across the street. Also on the agenda tonight, a resolution to award a contract to Ace Plastering of Beaver Dam for façade improvements to the downtown buildings whose walls were left exposed after adjacent buildings were demolished. The Beaver Dam Common Council meets at 8pm tonight at city hall.
