What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

George Cullen, co-chair of Grow Janesville, stated that the community needs education regarding the GM/JATCO referendum. Chad Navis of Zilber Property Group warned that if a developer risks a project only to have it rejected during the referendum process, it will discourage investment. Navis added that this uncertainty could result in lost tax revenue and increased carrying costs for the city. Joe Stadelman of Angus-Young Architects also noted that the referendum adds uncertainty to Janesville’s development approval process.
