Shorewood’s $7M budget

Shorewood’s $7M budget
Every penny spent, whether on paper clips or a snow plow, comes from your fees and taxes. The budget is the city’s financial plan for the anticipated expenses over the next fiscal year.   As a taxpayer, your participation in the budget process can influence the outcome.

$7Million: Shorewood Spends BIG on Engineering Firm Bolton & Menk

Burning money
Between January 2020 and July 2024 Bolton & Menk billed the City of Shorewood $6,968,361. That’s an average $126,697/mo. or $1,520,364 per year!   The amount of money billed by Bolton & Menk for engineering services in one single year is so staggering that the city could double the number of Public Works employees and still have money to hire 3-4 full time engineers.   Why did the City Council allow this to happen? You decide!
