The town of Pittsfield has filed its intent to appeal a ruling that allows the village of Howard to annex nearly 40 acres of land near County Highway U.
Background of the Case
Pittsfield had filed a lawsuit against Howard in September, claiming the village’s planned annexation was illegal because it was too far from village borders. However, a Brown County judge ruled in Howard’s favor last week, dismissing the lawsuit.
No briefs have been filed explaining the basis for the appeal, but the move indicates Pittsfield’s determination to challenge the annexation decision.
