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.

A liquor license request for a proposed Kwik Trip store on North Wright Road is on ice after some on the Janesville City Council voiced misgivings over more liquor retailers being added in the city.
The council on Monday tabled further discussion of whether it would grant a liquor license to Kwik Trip for a proposed gas station and convenience store at 1030 N. Wright Road. Kwik Trip is at least a year off from breaking ground on the station.
It wasnât clear Monday what Kwik Tripâs next move might be, but the La Crosse-based company will have to wait to learn whether the city council has an appetite for more liquor retailers.

HE “EIGHT arseholes in Karlsruhe”, otherwise known as Germany’s Federal Constitutional Court, have been perennial irritants for politicians, as this outburst from an irate minister in the 1970s suggests. Yet on April 29th, when the court’s first senate declared Germany’s climate-change law partly unconstitutional, ministers in the ruling coalition fell over themselves to hail the judges’ wisdom in rejecting an act they had passed less than 18 months earlier. The judgment was “epoch-making”, said Peter Altmaier, the Christian Democrat economy minister. “This is a very special day,” added Olaf Scholz, the Social Democrat finance minister. The pair then bickered over which of them was to blame for the terrible law in the first place.
