The developer of a proposed apartment building in Sturgeon Bay's West Waterfront Redevelopment Area can proceed with more a detailed conceptual plan.  The city's Plan Commission approved Northpointe Development's request to finalize the concept for a five-story, 53-unit apartment building on E. Maple Street.  That's the former site of the Door County Cooperative.  Overall, commissioners were pleased with the initial concepts and aesthetics of the proposal.  Though, some were concerned about Northpointe's desire for two parking slots per unit for the project.  Mayor David Ward believes those concerns can be resolved to benefit tenants and visitors.
 

Northpointe Development will now further refine the apartment project's design while the city works on a development agreement.  No timeline has been set as to when the revised concept will go before the plan commission.
