The West Bend Plan Commission meeting on November 6, 2024, focused on a proposed zoning change that would allow for residential development in the area. The primary discussion revolved around whether this change would lead to further public hearings once specific development plans are submitted.

During the meeting, a member raised concerns about the lack of additional public hearings after the zoning change is approved. They emphasized the importance of community input regarding the density and layout of any future developments. However, officials confirmed that there would not be any further public hearings after the initial zoning approval.

This decision has significant implications for local residents, as it limits their opportunity to voice concerns or provide feedback on specific development proposals that may arise from the zoning change. The commission's choice to proceed without additional public input could lead to mixed reactions from the community, highlighting the ongoing tension between development and resident engagement in West Bend.
