Reedsburg council adopts rezoning for two Lucky Street properties

The Reedsburg Common Council voted to adopt Ordinance No. 1980-26 to rezone 821 and 875 Lucky Street, correcting what the presenter described as a roughly 15-year-old zoning error.

Brian, a city staff member who presented the item, told the council the change would make the city well property government-zoned and return the adjacent storage building property to light-industrial zoning. "This is just again, as I said last time, correcting a mistake from about 15 years ago that the city well property will be government zoned and then the neighboring storage building property will go back to light industrial," Brian said.

The council opened and closed a public hearing on the ordinance after the mayor called for comments and no one spoke. Council member Tim Becker moved to approve the ordinance; the motion was seconded by Hyde. The council then took a roll-call vote, with Hyde, Diedrich, Becker, Friends, Peterson and Coomer recorded as voting "aye." The motion carried and the ordinance was adopted.

The Plan Commission had recommended the rezoning at its prior meeting, according to the staff presentation. The council provided no additional conditions or amendments during its action.

The ordinance affects property at 821 and 875 Lucky Street and, according to the presenter, resolves an internal zoning classification issue affecting the city well and a neighboring storage property. The council member who moved the motion, Tim Becker, and the member who seconded it, Hyde, were recorded in the meeting minutes for the motion and second.

The council returned to other business after adopting the ordinance.
