What Wisconsin agencies are planning

Upcoming projects, grants and hiring found in council minutes and budget hearings, before the solicitation.

OpportunityThe District relies heavily on Wisconsin Clean Water Fund (CWF) loans for large capital projects and lists more than 25 active CWF‑financed notes totaling about $143.2 million outstanding. It also plans to use additional future CWF draws to finance current commitments and the 2026‑2031 CIP. This creates a continuing need for financial advisory, grant/loan consulting, and project documentation support tied to CWF requirements.Madison Metropolitan Sewerage District · May 31, 2026$143,198,706OpportunityPublic Works staff presented a detailed draft 2027‑2036 Capital Improvement Plan covering streets, stormwater, facilities, fleet, and water/sewer utilities. The committee is asked to refine priorities and recommend changes to the Village Board; no projects in the plan have been bid yet. This is a roadmap of major construction, engineering, and equipment buys where designers, contractors, and vendors can still influence scope, phasing, and funding strategies.Oregon village · Jun 23, 2026$67,860,000OpportunityWausau is granting Eminent Development Corporation an exclusive planning option through December 31, 2026 for City-owned parcels on North 2nd Street and East Bridge Street. Eminent proposes a $18–22 million mixed-use project with 45–60 apartments (market and workforce), 5,800 sq ft of commercial space, and 85 parking stalls, likely seeking land at $1 and TIF support. No development agreement is in place yet, so housing developers, architects, engineers, and finance/LIHTC advisors can help shape design, capital stack, and incentives during due diligence.Wausau Community Development Authority · Jul 7, 2026$22,000,000OpportunityFort Atkinson is creating TID 11 on the south side (about 27 parcels and 250 acres, including Klement Business Park and Janesville Ave/Hackbarth Rd areas) with an estimated $21.5M in TIF-funded projects. Planned work includes Janesville Avenue corridor upgrades, utility extensions, road and intersection improvements, park and trail extensions, land acquisition, entry signage, and direct development incentives. With projected $90M in new value by 2046, the City is at the concept/program level and will need master planning, engineering, traffic, utility, trail, and development advisory services before it moves to procure specific projects.City of Fort Atkinson · Jun 23, 2026$21,500,000279 more pre-RFPs matched to you in a free digestGet matches free →

Recent projects and awards in Wisconsin

Contract awards and project updates from public meetings, largest and newest first.

The Shared‑Ride Taxi contract and vehicle lease with VIP Services were extended for May 1, 2026 through April 30, 2027, with a maximum funding amount of about $2.49 million for 46,563 service hours at $53.56 per hour. The County expects rising ridership may push use up to the contract ceiling and is counting on RouteGenie efficiencies to stay within hours and dollars. While the main award is made, this sets up future rebid timing, capacity expansions, and potential support work for the incumbent.Contract Award · Walworth County · Walworth County · Jul 6, 2026$2,493,914The City approved a Wastewater Connection Cooperative Agreement with Enbridge Energy tied to a terminal upgrade using non‑contact cooling water. Enbridge will invest $1.1 million in system improvements, including UV disinfection, to handle heated but uncontaminated wastewater without permit violations, with completion targeted for late 2027 or early 2028. While the agreement is in place, multiple construction phases, monitoring systems, and emergency controls will require engineering, equipment, and specialty contractors.Contract Award · City of Superior Environmental Services Division · Douglas County · Jul 2, 2026$1,100,000The City approved a development agreement with Stizo, LLC for a new Borton Construction office and future multifamily housing at 1319 St Andrew St, including extending Wood Street and full utilities. The City will reimburse up to $1,020,000 of public infrastructure funded from TID 16 and has executed a zero‑interest promissory note converting to 6.5% in 2028. Civil and utility work is effectively decided, but this signals future vertical construction, fit‑out, and adjacent infrastructure needs tied to the office and multifamily phases.Contract Award · La Crosse Municipal Airport Board · La Crosse County · Jul 2, 2026$1,019,704Fox West is mid-project on a Fine Screen, Blower, and Genset replacement at the wastewater plant. Sabel Mechanical has a $1,175,000 construction contract, with $478,311 completed and a third pay request of $156,215 on the July 1, 2026 agenda. This confirms the scope and remaining balance for electrical, process integration, and mechanical work, giving subcontractors and equipment vendors insight into active plant upgrades and likely follow-on optimization or maintenance needs.Contract Award · Town of Clayton · Winnebago County · Jul 1, 2026$1,175,000Bids for the Bayfield County Courthouse dome repair came in higher than first budgeted, and the Board approved reallocating Iron River Garage savings plus $221,075 from fund balance to fully fund the project. Berglund Construction submitted the low combined bid of $895,000 including copper dome replacement, and engineering by C&S Design & Engineering supports doing this work now to avoid future scaffold costs. This establishes Berglund and C&S as key incumbents for historic exterior work, with follow-on needs likely in maintenance, coatings, and related building systems.Contract Award · Town of Orienta · Bayfield County · Jun 30, 2026$1,763,075From May 19 to June 18, 2026, the district issued large checks to Miron Construction for the MASH Tech Ed/classroom addition (including a $1.78M payment and a $1.23M payment), plus equipment buys such as welders, lifts, sanding table, racking, and other Tech Ed gear from multiple vendors. Wendel is providing professional services, and Dura Weld is involved in welding moves. This is a major referendum‑funded CTE capital project that is mid‑construction. Construction is largely committed, but specialty equipment, curriculum, safety, and ongoing maintenance offers can still find entry points as the facility is finished and occupied.Contract Award · Medford Area School District · Marathon County · Jun 29, 2026$1,460,249628 more Wisconsin projects matched to you in a free digestGet matches free →
