Ryan Brahm reports:
For the past 8 years, the plot of land that used to be home to the Mirro Aluminum Company in Manitowoc has sat vacant and fenced off, but soon, progress will be made.
Manitowoc Mayor Justin Nickels confirmed on WOMT’s Jim and Rick Show last week that after years of struggles, crews will be on the site to conduct cleanup operations starting on September 8th.
When I say clean up, it is a demo of everything that’s there,” he explained. “So those concrete blocks and all the underground tunnels that still remain, and also ripping it all out, taking down the fencing that they’re making it to degrade, and then cleaning up some contaminants that are still on the site."
...to this.
Steven Devine reports:
Over $1.5 million through the Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority is going toward a future 59-unit apartment complex on the former Mirro site.
Mayor Justin Nickels announced that this would be the final step in making the project a reality on the land of the former Mirro factory.
Last year, Manitowoc received almost $2 million from a federal grant through the bipartisan infrastructure laws for the final cleanup of most of the site.
