The Town of Wittenberg Planning Commission serves our residents as an advisory body to the Town Board. The Town Planning Commission contains four members being Jessie Hanke, Brenda Balthazor, Jim Haun and Joel Mueller.
The Planning Commission hears matters of lot division, property rezone, conditional use and variance, etc. The Commission then holds a public hearing on the request and entertains motions and votes on a recommendation relative to the request which is then forwarded to the Town Board for action. The Town Board would then consider the Planning Commission’s recommendation on the request at the next regularly scheduled Town Board meeting and vote on their own motion relative to the request which would then typically be forwarded to the Shawano County Zoning Agency.
Applicants must appear in person before the Town Planning Commission and Town Board with their request. Please contact the Town Clerk, Maria Donat at 715-253-3222 at least two weeks prior to the Planning Commission meeting to be included on the agenda for discussion.
