The Green Bay Packers are seeking Ashwaubenon Village Board approval for a new mixed‑use development in the Titletown district. The proposal calls for a three‑story, 88‑unit apartment building to replace a previously approved set of 16 stacked flats, and for the construction of four additional townhomes along Brookwood Drive.
Project details
According to documents submitted for Tuesday’s Village Board meeting, the apartment building would be built on the site currently occupied by the stacked flats. The existing townhomes east of Orrie Lane would remain unchanged, while the new four‑unit townhome cluster would be added on the same block, creating a modest increase in housing density.
The plan includes a privacy fence along the south property line, a feature added after a recent neighborhood meeting raised concerns about visual impact and security. The Packers’ submission also outlines a pending amendment to the Planned Unit Development (PUD) ordinance that would revise the original Phase 2 site plan to permit a multi‑family apartment building.
Next steps
If the Village Board approves the PUD ordinance amendment, the Packers will be required to submit detailed site‑plan materials for review. Those materials will cover landscaping, lighting, architectural design, storm‑water management and other elements, and will be examined by the Village’s Site Plan Review Committee.
The Village Board is scheduled to meet at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, when the proposal will be placed on the agenda. Board members will have the opportunity to ask questions, request modifications, or vote on the amendment.
Community context
The Titletown district has become a focal point for new housing and commercial projects tied to the Packers’ broader economic development strategy. Supporters argue that additional apartments and townhomes will help meet growing demand for housing in the Green Bay area, provide more options for families and young professionals, and generate modest tax revenue for the village.
Critics have voiced concerns about increased traffic, strain on local infrastructure, and the loss of the existing stacked‑flat design, which they say offers a different housing typology. The privacy fence addition was a direct response to those concerns, aiming to preserve a sense of separation between the new development and neighboring properties.
What residents can do
Residents who wish to comment on the proposal may attend the Village Board meeting or submit written feedback to the Ashwaubenon Planning Department before the meeting date. The Board’s decision will set the stage for the next phase of design work and, ultimately, construction.
Both the Packers and the Village have emphasized that the project is intended to complement the existing character of Titletown while addressing the region’s need for more housing options.
