By ordinance A2026-07-01, the Oconto County Board approved a request to rezone Tax Parcel #016-1919001 in the Town of Gillett from Agricultural District to Rural Residential District. The petition (RZ-20260023) covers 4.7 acres and was presented by the Land & Water Resources Committee; the Town of Gillett had recommended approval.
The ordinance text states the rezoning is intended "to bring the parcel into compliance to add lands to existing parcel and create a 4.2 acre parcel," and committee materials note the area is planned for low-impact, low-density residential development. The Land & Water Resources Committee held a public hearing on July 13, 2026 and, after reviewing testimony and staff reports, recommended approval; the full board adopted the amendatory ordinance by electronic vote (27–0, 4 absent).
