During the Sturgeon Bay Common Council meeting Tuesday night, the city joined a handful of other communities in Door County on the list of Green Tier Community Legacy members.  Sturgeon Bay Utilities General Manager Jim Stawicki explained to council members the benefits of the program now compared to when the city last looked at it in 2020.  He noted that the city can now realize about $500,000 in forgiveness through the state on the $5 million project for the wastewater management plan. 

 In other business at Tuesday’s meeting, the first readings for two rezoning ordinances were approved.  A multi-family residential development at 26 West Pine Street and a 30-unit housing development for Estes Storage Condo at 1361 North 14th Avenue requires rezoning from Central Business District (C-2) to R-4, and from R-4 to a Planned Unit Development, respectively.  A second reading will need to be approved at the next council meeting on September 19 before the ordinances take effect.
