um

Speaker 2

15:36

Unassigned speaker

15:52

each people um my comments about the time economic opportunity is also an opportunity that we have a negative competition um for the um community um and I would really um to take this up and break and look at the thumbnails and normal.

Unassigned speaker

20:00

I don't think the problem is another and must take um what I've got into the other control um uh women border uh people at this time because we have nothing to do with number things for the new and the people that we decided to do that have already been there and technology required and uh where it's going to be whether the cost of that would be a lot of policy or nothing to allow that well that you want to use up to wine because we can operate on the same thing all the time of the country.

Speaker 2

25:22

I'm I'm I'm not talking about um that one

32:35

So we can walk

Unassigned speaker

32:46

because

Speaker 2

32:47

anyone building the same thing to do people.

32:53

Um there will be people in our company about this people who actually go to water and do it to them as well.

34:20

One of the people have been coming.

Unassigned speaker

34:46

So I know what my floor can still limit public information and just take on moving forward before public and the people that I think one time here at home as well.

Unassigned speaker

35:00

I understand negotiations, limited public information and just pay things moving forward before public information is given and the people that I have had the most kind of meaningful application.

Unassigned speaker

35:15

I

Speaker 2

35:15

think concerns about negotiations over the reimbursement agreement.

35:26

I don't want to make the product to the size and complexity is full of value before the end of the game.

35:35

Well, the product is also continuing for it's just a monthly or use of the project of the noise by line from the structure.

36:20

As a matter of fact, I see if you're drawing back and responsible as a full and one of the five boards and water and standing away.

40:39

Oh, you can do open with the um three.

41:47

Um, if you don't have to work in the same bottom, I don't have to be able to find that the water and uh doesn't um more than two.

Unassigned speaker

42:40

Um that we uh can see uh um really difficult and find on the um like audio company that we did some point um so we don't respond like the safety for 21 years and why did this time about the body that's happening or both uh in the kind of away in the world that I have to buy requests that the way a water service can stop uh the kind of study for that and uh something was the sort of bigger made the blood and the public would have and use the back and probably that inside what we do.

Unassigned speaker

45:00

uh in the kind of away in the kind of in the world that we can get the simple and a water because it's been stopped uh the kind of belong with that and uh you can have you uh and uh uh who did it like the public would have to uh need and use the public that inside what's going on and all the stuff um the uh we can do that we uh uh means it's a bad um um just a lot of it's got a thing and it's very very helpful and uh we don't know and that is the that would be like only that training that I'm always trying to go to the back thank you very much for watching my um do what I can find out uh you hear from everybody and I know anybody all the reason about this uh and it's not to think about when it comes to the past environment for all about that people are we think about the cloud and what's in the time it's a couple of time that's it's a what we have to put it off the metal that I'm just gonna use and not a lot of resources that you can all get money and possible it's a good one

Unassigned speaker

50:06

And

Speaker 2

50:06

now it's not even all that three years.

50:31

Why can't we have a child that I think that we need to have to do that for a long time?

50:47

What do you think about the world made towards the and uh usually more information to um sponsored by one by uh developers and one different one?

Unassigned speaker

51:46

I've got the control and one call in the middle people, which is until you know that's the same one to not be um like a few um things that we need um what they do and so uh this like a new industry.

Speaker 2

55:18

So important it's new.

55:24

It's new to this area.

55:31

You know, a guy in the time I have to put it in the other thing.

55:38

Well, I wanted to talk about the law about what was up and running.

55:44

There was a lot of unspoken about using this and the immediate thing that would be uh not online to become listening.

55:56

So um you may

Unassigned speaker

55:59

think

Speaker 2

55:59

about bonds and whatever you need to take care of the keys and uh it's no longer um usable or

Unassigned speaker

56:08

give

Speaker 2

56:08

a lot of money and they'll be in fact or whatever can happen to you just like that.

56:14

Um vibration, sound environment.

Speaker 1

56:25

Um that would need to be monitored.

56:29

Once it's up and running that would have to be

Speaker 2

56:33

survival,

Unassigned speaker

56:34

uh

Speaker 2

56:36

be monitoring them.

56:38

And so even though they have time up on me and it would say that it would be perfect if it's a hand that bunch of was up and running and that

Speaker 1

Summary of Proceedings

Beloit City Council Regular Meeting - July 7, 2026

The Beloit City Council held a regular meeting on Tuesday, July 7, 2026, at 6:00 PM at the City Hall Forum, 100 State Street. The meeting began with a swearing-in ceremony for City Manager Daniel Ortiz Hernandez and recognition of Beloit Historical Society's America 250 essay contest participants. Public hearings were held on a Planned Unit Development (PUD) Master Land Use Plan for properties at 2209 and 2217 Hickory Drive and on zoning district map amendments. The remainder of the meeting included public comments, a consent agenda, reports, and a closed session. Note: The raw transcription of the meeting is largely unintelligible; therefore, specific discussions and vote outcomes cannot be reliably determined from the transcript alone.

Consent Calendar

  • The consent agenda included the following routine items, collectively approved by one motion: approval of June 15, 2026 meeting minutes; approval of Resolution 2026-093 for Alcohol Beverage Operator's Licenses; approval of Resolution 2026-090 for the Extraterritorial Final Plat of Riverstone Subdivision Plat 4 (Plan Commission recommendation 5-0); approval of Resolution 2026-088 for free bus fare for the Housing Resources Fair; approval of Resolution 2026-094 for the HOME-ARP Agreement for Riverside Apartments Project; approval of Resolution 2026-095 for a Development Agreement between the City and Beloit Riverside Apartments LLC; referrals to the ABLCC for four alcohol license applications; and a referral to the Plan Commission for Ordinance No. 3918 amending the Zoning District Map for a portion of 625 Third Street.

Public Comments & Testimony

  • The public comment period was held, but the transcription does not provide clear statements or attribution. Fragments in the transcript suggest that some speakers addressed data center development, water usage, and environmental concerns, but their identities and specific positions cannot be confirmed.

Discussion Items

  • Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Funding Priorities: Under Reports from Boards and City Officers, the council considered Resolution 2026-091 adopting the 2027 CDBG Local Funding Priorities. The Community Development Authority had recommended approval 6-0. The transcript does not confirm the council's vote.
  • Data Center Development: An agenda item added by Vice President Yusuf Adama, Councilor Jim White, and Councilor Sherry Blakeley provided for discussion regarding data center development and potential future council actions. The garbled transcript indicates deliberation on water and chemical usage, environmental monitoring, vibration, sound, and the community's economic recovery. No formal action was taken.
  • Closed Session: The council adjourned into closed session pursuant to Wisconsin Statutes to discuss an Intergovernmental Agreement with the Town of Beloit regarding the full consolidation of Fire and EMS Services. The council may have reconvened for possible action, but the transcript does not capture any open session outcome.

Key Outcomes

  • The public hearings for the PUD (Resolution 2026-089) and zoning map amendments (Ordinance Nos. 3916 and 3915) were held; the Plan Commission had recommended approval 7-0 for each, but final council action is not confirmed from the transcript.
  • The consent agenda was approved as presented.
  • The CDBG funding priorities resolution was considered, but the council's vote is not recorded in the transcript.
  • Alcohol license applications were formally referred to the ABLCC; the zoning map referral to the Plan Commission was approved.
  • The discussion on data center development took place with no immediate action; further council actions may be considered in the future.
  • The closed session on the Fire/EMS intergovernmental agreement was conducted; subsequent open session action, if any, is not discernible.
