Topics getting the most attention in Greenfield, WI public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Spring Mall redevelopment advances
The city gave developer Mandell Group more runway on the long-awaited Spring Mall redevelopment, extending the construction deadline to April 30, 2027 because a merger slowed its fundraising. The developer says it's 70% of the way to raising equity and will remove asbestos and relocate utilities.
Beloit Road townhome development and rezone
Two Beloit Road parcels were rezoned for multifamily housing, and the complained-about building will be demolished. A neighbor raised worries about traffic, poorly timed signals, dangerous intersections, and flooding/runoff.
Cobblestone Hotel at 84 South
A 62-room, four-story hotel with pool, fitness area and beer-and-wine bar is coming to the 84 South development between Aurora Medical and Steinhafels. Developer hopes to start construction this year and open by end of 2027, with rates averaging around $150/night.
Loomis Crossing and 84 South TID amendments
The council authorized the TID 6 and TID 8 amendments underpinning the Loomis Crossing development. The area's tax base has grown from $13 million to roughly $300 million, and a hotel may fill the last 84 South parcel — though no city funds are earmarked for it yet.
