Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Antigo public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Hudson Street and Pearl Avenue CDBG Street Project
The street reconstruction project expanded to include more of Hudson Street after income surveys showed more residents qualified for the CDBG grant — a contract amendment with Ayres Associates for $74,770 was on the consent agenda.
Downtown Four-Way Stop Signs (Edison & Dorr at Fifth Avenue)
A proposal to make Edison/Fifth and Dorr/Fifth four-way stops split the council. Backers cite pedestrian safety near the childcare center; police data shows 28 crashes over ten years and the police, fire, and street departments all oppose the signs, blaming diagonal parking instead.
US Hwy 45 resurfacing agreement
A state municipal agreement with WisDOT for resurfacing US Highway 45 was on the consent agenda — a road project that affects commuters and local businesses along the corridor.
