Development News from the latest meeting
Common Council - 7/21/2026 - 6:30 PM
Published: Jul 21, 2026
Authorization Granted to Bid South 76th Street Water Main Extension Project
The City Council authorized staff to proceed with advertising and bidding for the South 76th Street Water Main Extension Project. This project is necessary to install a new water main before the county's planned reconstruction of 76th Street next year. The Board of Water Commissioners recommended moving forward with the project, and staff believes the design is sufficiently advanced to proceed to bidding.
Ryan Meadows Condominium Development Approved, Developer to Fund Infrastructure
The City Council considered a resolution to conditionally approve a one-lot certified survey map for the Ryan Meadows condominiums, a development project involving approximately 36 condominiums on seven acres. The developer has agreed to cover all infrastructure improvements through a financial guarantee, estimated at $1.85 million, with no anticipated general fund expenses for city services. The development is planned as a market-rate project and is not seeking tax increment financing. The council approved the resolution.
Planned Development District Expanded to Include Lumis Road Property, Allowing Institutional Uses
The City Council approved an ordinance to amend Unified Development Ordinance Planned Development District (PDD) number 29. This amendment incorporates the property at 10525 West Lumis Road into PDD number 29, expanding its boundaries. Additionally, the ordinance allows for institutional district uses within PDD number 29. The Islamic Foundation of Greater Milwaukee, Inc. is the property owner and applicant. This approval follows a related certified survey map combining properties.
Water Service Extension Project Moves to Design Phase Following Positive Survey Results
The City Council received positive survey results regarding resident interest in extending water service along South 92nd Street and West Ryan Road. Out of 10 yes votes, 6 no votes, and 2 no preference responses, the results indicate a willingness to proceed. The project aims to install a water main before upcoming county work on Ryan Road and local road improvements on 92nd Street. Staff requested permission to begin the design phase. Concerns were raised about the number of non-respondents (13) and whether their questions were addressed, but the council ultimately authorized staff to begin design.
Conditional Use Permit Granted for 166-Unit Adaneer Azora Multifamily Development
The City Council approved a conditional use permit for the Adaneer Azora development, a 166-unit multifamily project on 24 acres located at 7705 South 31st Street. The project proposes a mix of housing types, including townhomes and single-family units, with a gross density of seven units per acre. Staff recommended approval, noting compliance with general conditional use standards and proposing modifications to design standards through a Planned Development Overlay (PDO). Public hearings raised concerns about traffic, pedestrian safety, and storm water management. The council approved the permit (5-1 vote).
