Subdivision, Bakery, Duplex Requests Head to Sturgeon Bay Plan Commission

The Sturgeon Bay Plan Commission is set to review several development proposals Wednesday, ranging from a large subdivision concept to a small bakery request and a duplex proposal, as city officials weigh growth alongside neighborhood concerns.

 

One key item includes an early-stage proposal for a subdivision along Division Road. Plans call for approximately 55 lots featuring a mix of single-family homes and duplexes, along with workforce housing elements and future infrastructure needs such as water, sewer and road access. The concept also includes a continuation of the Ahnapee Trail.

District 4 Alderman Spencer Gustafson emphasized the preliminary nature of the discussion.

 

“This is a property the city owns. We just recently purchased it,” Gustafson said. “We’ve been eyeing single family home options in the area for a while.”

 

No formal action is expected at the meeting, which is intended for initial review and feedback.

 

Also on the agenda is a request tied to  Drömhus  Restaurant to convert a nearby building into a small bakery. The proposal would repurpose a former office space into a roughly 12-seat operation requiring a conditional use permit.

 

 

 

“The Drömhus is always looking to innovate the property,” Gustafson said. “The Drömhus has become an absolute gem in the county.”

City staff has recommended approval, noting the project aligns with the surrounding mixed-use area and is not expected to create negative impacts.

 

A third item involves a request to build a duplex on South Hudson Avenue. The vacant lot meets zoning requirements but requires a conditional use permit.

“It’s a fairly simple item on the agenda. It is an isolated lot in the West Walnut neighborhood,” Gustafson said. “I always want to make sure the folks that call me get their voices heard at these meetings.”

 

The Plan Commission meets at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday at City Hall.
