Topics getting the most attention in Green Bay public meetings, ranked by how frequently they are discussed.
6 issues in development with low priority
Historic design review at 638 S Monroe Avenue
A homeowner in the Astor historic district needed approval to replace a rear window and redo a jump porch. Because the work isn't visible from the street and touches only non-historic elements, it sailed through without controversy.
Whitney School Apartments ownership transfer
The historic Whitney School building's 23 market-rate apartments are changing hands, and the new owner takes over the existing TIF development agreement unchanged. Residents see no change — the development agreement just follows the building.
Emmet Street land donation
Diane Derks donated a parcel on Emmet Street she can't use because it lacks utilities; the city accepted it as a possible future development site.
Property purchase at 1803 Shawano Ave.
The Authority approved buying the parcel at 1803 Shawano Avenue, adding it to the city's redevelopment inventory.
New industrial office/storage building on S Maple Ave
A vacant lot between industrial buildings gets a small office/storage facility for the buyer's own business, at a discounted price because he's fixing the sidewalks and paying for fill.
Planning option at 1209 S. Maple Street
Don Rozz received a 60-day window to explore redevelopment of the S. Maple Street parcel.
