Town of Oconomowoc - Town of Oconomowoc officials say they do not want to see Highway 83 in the Village of Chenequa be rerouted to Highway P in the town, in reaction to a proposal made by Chenequa officials.
The Village of Chenequa is looking to possibly move the highway out of it's borders as the state Department of Transportation is supposed to be reconstructing the road to meet new standards, which Chenequa officials say do not fit with the residential feel of the village.
The redirection of Highway 83 would make it so that the highway would not enter the south end of Chenequa, but instead make a west turn to down a Highway 16/83 combination until it reached Highway P where it would then shoot north through the town.
Town supervisors expressed their disinterest in the idea during their Aug. 18, board meeting saying it would only increase traffic on an already traffic-increasing road, and that a resolution against the highway proposal is anticipated to be voted on during their next meeting Sept. 15.
