FORT ATKINSON \u2014 The Fort Atkinson City Council officially approved the annexation of a 1.28-acre Town of Koshkonong parcel at N1807 South Main St. into the City of Fort Atkinson. The land is planned to facilitate the construction of a four-lot residential housing subdivision.<\/p>\n
The certified survey map for the annexation was also approved, splitting the land into four lots.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe proposed annexation and development represent an investment in our community to add new residential housing,\u201d said Director of Neighborhood and Building Services Jedidiah Draeger during Tuesday\u2019s meeting.<\/p>\n
The approval allows utilities to be extended to the property in a timely manner while South Main St. remains under construction, with completion expected sometime in November.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe proposal also allows the City to coordinate the extension of municipal utilities with the ongoing South Main St. improvements, supporting efficient infrastructure installation and reducing the potential for future disruption to the completed roadway,\u201d Draeger wrote in a memo to the council.<\/p>\n
Draeger also told the council that the Wisconsin Department of Administration reviewed the annexation application and found it to be in the public interest.<\/p>\n
The council voted to bypass the second reading of the proposal and proceeded directly to the third and final reading, which resulted in its official approval. The annexation and CSM received unanimous approval from the council.{\/div}<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"FORT ATKINSON \u2014 The Fort Atkinson City Council officially approved the annexation of a 1.28-acre Town of Koshkonong…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":312893,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[296,128,130,129],"class_list":["post-312892","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-reading","tag-local","tag-reading-city","tag-reading-city-headlines","tag-reading-city-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/312892","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=312892"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/312892\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/312893"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=312892"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=312892"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=312892"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
