Developer gets rezoning approval
A developer who wishes to put up an apartment complex with four floors has been given approval for a zoning change that brings the project closer to construction.
Brochure printing is an effective way of showing what a project will look like when completed. Now that approval has been granted, the developers can agree on the project’s finer points.
Tom Pinion from Baraboo’s Public Works office said:
A public hearing was held before the zoning change was approved, with no voices of dissent. The developers behind the project are called Three Amigos Property Management of La Crosse and have already started the process of buying the land.
The zoning change was necessary because the plot is located on land that had a B-1 Central Business rating. This meant that a multi-story family dwelling could not be placed here. The city approved a general development plan which classified the development as a Planned Unit Development, thus allowing for the overlay in zones.
The project was initially supposed to have 64 units. Current plans show that it will have 66 multi-family units.
Ed Geick, who is serving as the Interim City Administrator, feels that having more living units will be good for the city. The City Council agreed with Geick and voted in favor of the rezoning.

“They can proceed with confidence that nothing will come up (zoning-wise).”
