Board of Appeals 7-20-2026

The City of Green Bay Board of Appeals convened on July 20, 2026, to consider variance requests related to property development. The board reviewed a variance request from Steve Cole of Cole Construction Company seeking a reduced front yard setback for a new two-family residence on a corner lot at Langley Avenue and Pilgrim Street. The board discussed the practical challenges of conforming to the standard setback due to the lot's orientation change and ultimately approved the variance, recognizing the benefit of adding a new housing unit to the community. Another variance request from the City of Green Bay Public Works Department regarding impervious surface standards and side yard setbacks for a non-residential accessory building was introduced but not acted upon during this meeting. The meeting concluded with the scheduling of the next session for August 17, 2026.
