The Waupaca County Board of Supervisors on Aug. 15 adopted a set of planning and zoning changes approved by the county Planning & Zoning Committee and by the originating townships.
Resolution No. 9 amended Waupaca County Ordinance No. 45 (the Comprehensive Plan Map) to include two town-initiated changes reviewed at a public hearing Aug. 8, 2023: PLUM‑006‑2023 (Town of Iola: change preferred land use from Forestry to Agriculture on ~0.87 acre along North Lake Road) and PLUM‑007‑2023 (Town of Lebanon: change from Agriculture to Commercial on ~6.76 acres between Highway 45 and Old Highway 45).
