The future of the latest proposed Kwik Trip in Janesville is in doubt after the project did not receive a liquor license.
The Janesville City Council did not approve the gas station’s license application Monday night with the council split on an even 3-3 vote for the proposal on North Wright Road.
City Council President Doug Marklein recused himself from the vote due to a conflict of interest, so the seven-member council did not have a majority split.
Council members Susan Johnson, Paul Williams and Michael Jackson voted against the license, with the belief that Janesville should not add another liquor store because it has enough already.

BLANCHESTER A local man was charged with assault on a peace officer after a recent incident.
On Tuesday morning, Feb. 9, Teresa Bowman of Orchard Circle called the police station and left a voicemail message saying she needed “help” at her residence.
“Luckily, an officer listened to that message within minutes of it being received,” stated Police Chief Scott Reinbolt in a news release. He added, “As always, residents needing police assistance should call the Clinton County Sheriff’s Office dispatch center, not the police station. The Blanchester police station has not been staffed since 1994.”
