The Sturgeon Bay Plan Commission met last night to discuss two major items of potential future housing, and a new TID (Tax Increment Financing District). There has been an application to turn a facility on Florida Street and 19th Drive into a community residential facility for some time, but TTX Corporation has now purchased the property and hopes to turn it into four apartment units. Before that can be done there is a condition that the property requires an additional use approval from the plan commission which after the presentation the commission unanimously approved.
The second thing discussed was the new Tax Increment Financing District on Egg Harbor Road. Mayor David Ward said there are a number of properties on Egg Harbor Rd. that are good development prospects but need infrastructure improvements such as sewer and water, or road improvements. Talks about forming the district have just begun getting explored and will require a joint review board of the County, School District, Technical College, and City of Sturgeon Bay.
