Woodman's Food Market Gets Conditional Approval from Sun Prairie City Council (City of Sun Prairie Office of Economic Development)

Woodman's Food Market received unanimous, conditional approval from the Sun Prairie City Council at the April 19th City Council meeting to construct a 225,000 s.f. grocery store in the City's Westside Neighborhood. A fueling station and seven outlots will also be created as part of this project. The only issue to be resolved was the final alignment of Prairie Lakes Drive on the east of the property, which is currently shifted to accommodate an electrical transmission pole in the center of the street on an island. Council approved the project, but directed both Woodman's and staff to further evaluate options to relocate the proposed road to the south and to update the Council on their decision. Woodman's representative Bret Backus reiterated their intention to break ground in June 2011 and to be open in summer or fall of 2012.
