Columbus Wisconsin Budget How does JD Milburn Feel about it?

Dickason Boulevard Columbus Wisconsin

Please describe your budgeting experience and thoughts on the city’s budget situation? The City leverages $359,631,300 in equalized tax value to provide services each of us could not afford to pay for alone, equally shared benefits. That is the role of a government budget. We do that in Columbus asking for a 2.3% borrowing rate upon various property values. The Values increased about 3% in 2015. We have not recovered almost $33 Million in previous housing value from 2010. Those taxes pay for city, school, county, technical college and state needs. Each of them is used to impact the place. Many citizens talk about the value from this borrowing. Those categorized into a general, community development authority, the aquatic center, cemetery, paying for debt, and funding long-term capital projects like a truck, road, police station, park shelter etc. Our budget is a living document and us as citizens must decide how it lives. We can decide that if we understand the need, and the output/service. More narrative in the fine numerical document would serve the community well, as would face of the excellent employees and face of those providing the output and service. Whether that be Davis Clark great work on directing roads, snow plowing, Carolyn Fredericks coordinating workers, at public works and all those people. Or it could be Dan Meister, Matt Schultz, Roger, Terry, Kelly, Randy Koehn and more from the police and fire department. Amy is the face of who we play and recreate. At city hall and across the street Patrick, Anne, Pat Goebel, Cindy from the Library and now Kim Lang at the senior center. These are where citizens intersect with the city, and besides looking at numbers it would be nice for much more to know these dedicated public servants. They all make for a better place and quality of life. I have read many government budgets and provided input but input is just that unless we interact with those improving the place these are just numbers. I will leave you with one parting thought is the average salary is $35,000 that costs us around $1.5 Million in the tax base to pay or around 15 homes if I use the $100K per home value Zillow reports. Increases in 2016 were across the board, the aquatic park, and parks and recreation as we work to improve quality of life. I think we are getting great value, but let’s work to improve the place.

Columbus Wisconsin the PLACE

In 2017 the main artery in Columbus Wisconsin will be torn up. Will it rip the heart and soul out of the community? To steal a quote from Apollo 13 “With all due respect, sir, I believe this is gonna be our finest hour. Citizens we sleep in our bedrooms, we eat in our kitchens, we watch TV. But our living room is our community, it’s the intersection of other people, workers, sidewalks, parks, roads, schools and youth. Our living room is Columbus Wisconsin the PLACE. When we improve the place we impact all, this is called place making. Quick story I was summoned to a larger northern community I worked many years with to talk to the newly elected mayor. I asked him do you stand for reducing speeding in neighborhoods, better garbage collection, downtown/industry development, lowering taxes. He could not answer. I said we will work to improve the place, that is what you are elected to do. I will be your public servant, we will all work collectively to improve this place called Columbus Wisconsin that is why I’m running.

The Drowsy Chaperone Columbus Wisconsin High School

Make your reservations now and enjoy a great evening. Everyone has worked hard to prepare this for you. Friday, March 18 & 19 @ 7 PM & 19th @ 2:00 PM at the Columbus Wisconsin High School call 920-623-5956, ext. 2849.

The Drowsy Chaperone is a musical with book by Bob Martin and Don McKellar and music and lyrics by Lisa Lambert and Greg Morrison. It is a parody of American musical comedy of the 1920s. The story concerns a middle-aged, asocial musical theatre fan; as he plays the record of his favorite musical, the (fictional) 1928 hit The Drowsy Chaperone, the show comes to life onstage as he wryly comments on the music, story, and actors.
