Planning, Development & Extension Education Committee Meeting, August 12, 2026

The Kenosha County Planning, Development & Extension Education Committee met on August 12, 2026, to consider several land use and zoning matters. Key procurement-related actions included approval of a comprehensive plan amendment and rezoning request for a parcel in the Town of Brighton, allowing the creation of a 4.767-acre lot for residential use while preserving farmland. The committee also approved a certified survey map subject to conditions, enabling the formal subdivision of the land. These items will proceed to the County Board for final approval. Additionally, three other land use items were tabled pending further review by the town planning commission. The committee discussed upcoming changes to UW Extension presentations and noted a vacancy in the land conservationist position, with interviews recently conducted to fill the role. Future meetings will address additional land use cases, including a potentially contentious noise ordinance exemption request from Lily Lake. No direct contract awards or budget allocations were discussed in this meeting.
