City of E.C. Asked to Annex 438 Acres for Housing Development

News, Eau Claire
The City of Eau Claire will soon consider annexing 438 acres from the town of Washington, a move which could clear the way for a large new housing development on the city’s south side.
The area, which the city is calling the Stewart-Hauge Annexation, lies along Lowes Creek and Mischler roads, and includes a portion of Lowes Creek County Park. Developers who own much of the land had previously asked the Eau Claire County Board to rezone the area from agriculture use to a rural housing district. Last year the county board rejected the plan for the Orchard Hills subdivision, which would have created 117 homes. According to media reports, the County Board voted the plan down after hearing from neighbors who were worried about increased traffic and other potential problems.
