Alliant Energy substation expansion rezoning

Monroe

Summary

Alliant Energy wants to use a vacant lot next to its substation for utility storage, which required flipping the city's future land use map and rezoning it from residential to light industrial. Alders worried the new zoning lets the utility build bigger things later without further council sign-off.
