There was a time when this village had a moratorium on building new homes. In the early 2000s, leaders watched nearby communities such as DeForest, Waunakee and Sun Prairie balloon in size.
Poynette wanted to avoid a glut of residents that could stress roads, sewers and schools, and alter its small-town character.
That moratorium expired more than 15 years ago and now this southern Columbia County village’s population of 2,598 is about to get a significant boost from a housing project designed to attract people who can’t afford a new home in Dane County or want to escape the cycle of paying rent.
Located 23 miles from East Towne Mall in Madison, Point Gardens will feature more than 300 single-family houses on smaller lots than the average Poynette home and will range in price from $359,000 to $419,000
