Board meetings and strategic plans from Douglas County
The committee addressed several action items, including the approval of a child safety warning sign request with a specified fee and the approval of a land swap agreement with 18th Hole, LLC, which was referred to the Land & Development Committee. Informational updates were provided regarding the unsuccessful application for funding for the County Highway C segment 2 project. Additionally, the committee reviewed and scored design consultant proposals for the County Highway P Bridge Replacement project, selecting Cedar Corporation as the consultant.
The committee reviewed the mid-year health claims and discussed dental and medical plan renewals for 2027. Topics included a review of Health Partners and Delta Dental plan options, the continuation of Medica as the medical carrier with specific deductible increases to comply with IRS HSA minimums, and the status of the Medica Invest and My Health Rewards programs. The committee reviewed a 19% premium increase for Medica, which will be offset by capital project funds, and elected to opt out of the Traditional Medical plan option. Additionally, the committee discussed the potential offering of voluntary vision insurance through Delta Dental.
The committee held a meeting to open and evaluate various land bids for properties in the City of Superior, Town of Amnicon, Town of Parkland, and Village of Oliver, subsequently approving the high bids to be forwarded to the County Board. Other actions included placing a parcel adjacent to the fairgrounds on hold indefinitely due to its proximity to wetlands and approving the construction of a new historical barn on the fairgrounds by the Lions Club. The committee also discussed informational items regarding the Land Improvement Account fund balance and a tax deed property repurchase request, and established minimum bid amounts for several properties requested for appraisal.
