Car Wash Plan for Kwik Trip Site Tabled

Kwik Trip officials say they will continue to work on developing the property — plans for a proposed convenience store, gas station and car wash — no matter how long it takes.

Not only have plans for a proposed gas station and convenience store been rejected in Saukville, but plans for a car wash were also pulled from last week’s Village of Saukville Plan Commission agenda, reported the Ozaukee Press.  Kwik Trip has been facing a large roadblock in launching a gas station and convenience store on land the company recently acquired in Saukville after the village's Plan Commission denied a conditional use permit last month because of environmental concerns.

Kwik Trip is facing a large roadblock in launching a gas station and convenience store on land the company recently acquired in Saukville after the village's Plan Commission denied a conditional use permit because of environmental concerns — but company officials say they plan to fight the decision made by the village. Four commission members voted against Bob Hamann's motion to "approve the (permit) because ... enough evidence has been presented here that any type of spill or encroachment on the wetland areas is not going to be significant."  While commissioner Richard Belling agreed, commissioners Mike Krocka, Roy Willhelm, Don Brock and Village President Barb Dickmann were not convinced it wouldn't be a risk, offering the dissenting …

There's still plenty of room for competition here. I frequent Beck's because they usually have a great supply of Kalypso lemonade and teamonade, and my kids really like that. If Kwik Trip doesn't carry those, Becks will remain a destination solely for that reason. If you have kids, you'll already know its frequently much more "convenient" to hit a convenience store than go all the way into one of…   more ›
