Poynette Village Board approves ordinance amendment for zoning, discontinuance of alley

In a 5-1 vote, the Poynette Village Board approved amending the the village’s Comprehensive Plan in regards to the Planned Land Use Map. The area of the village that was in question was the 7.2 acres of land located west of S. Main Street and north of W. John Street. Currently, the 7.2 acres are zoned for single family residential, but an amendment to the ordinance would allow for a duplex or multi-family residential zoning tag. According to Village Administrator Martin Shanks, there is somewhat of a corridor of existing multi-family residential units in that area. The corridor could be extended to include all lots in that 7.2-acre area. There is proximity to the sewer plant, but the village has not fielded any odor complaints recently. Shanks noted that it still may detract families from settling in that area.
