Common Council Chambers – City Hall 2000 N. Calhoun Road - Brookfield, WI The City is proposing a rezoning of properties associated with Krueger Park and the adjacent recreational trails, lands generally located east of Columbia Boulevard, north of I-94, south of Target, and terminating at the municipal boundary with the City of Wauwatosa. The city proposes rezoning the property tax keys BRC1108136001, BRC1108136006, BRC1108149001, BRC1108170001, BRC1108991, and BRC1149991001, to Recreational District (REC). The rezoning is in association with achieving the goals and objectives of the City of Brookfield 2050 Comprehensive Plan and the 124th Street and Bluemound Road Neighborhood Plan. The neighborhood plan acknowledges the need to rezone the Krueger Park lands from “I” Industrial and “R-3” Residential to “REC” Recreational. Rezoning the properties is sought by the Department of Parks, Recreation & Forestry for installing and maintaining the park amenities for Krueger Park and the associated City trails as adopted in A Park and Open Space Plan for the City of Brookfield: 2035. The meeting is an open house. No presentation will be made. City staff will be present to answer questions regarding the proposed rezoning and process.
