As Waukee gears up for Easter weekend, this week’s episode features a cheerful wrap-up of the annual Egg Hunt Eggstravaganza with Jamie Thompson, who shares favorite moments and thanks the many community supporters. Then, we shift gears to a crucial city update. Waukee City Administrator Brad Deets and Communications Director Heather Behrens break down the FY2026 draft budget, what residents should know, and how to participate in the upcoming public hearing on April 21 at City Hall or via Zoom. Listeners will also gain insight into their recent property tax assessments, as Brad and Heather explain the layers behind your statement—more than just your home’s assessed value. Plus, Melissa Stimple returns to highlight the Waypoint Resources clothing closet, which provides essential clothing and shoes at no cost to local families.
