Mammoth Springs TIF Hearing Thursday

The hearing will give residents an opportunity to express their views on the proposed creation of the district and proposed project plan.

 

A public hearing will be held Thursday on a proposal to create a tax incremental financing in Sussex. 

Part of the project includes rehabilitation and conservation of the former Mammoth Springs Canning Company property and surrounding properties.

Projects might include land acquisition, development incentives, improvements to sanitary, potable water and storm water facilities, streets, and related engineering, administrative and legal costs.

Construction of two 30-unit apartment buildings at Mammoth Springs Cannery Company will begin in May.

There was previously some delay caused by plans for the Waukesha County Bugline Trail. The trail runs through the middle of the site.  

A copy of the project plan and map will be available for review at the Village Hall during normal office hours and on the website at www.village.sussex.wi.us. 

The hearing will be held Thursday February 21 at the Village Hall at 5:30 p.m.

I really hope they do something with the "pond" that's there now. Put a nice path around it with some benches, stock it with some fish, etc. Make it an attraction that people walking/biking the bugline would want to detour off of to just sit, relax, and view the water.

It can't be used for swimming but can still be an asset to the area.
