GREEN BAY, Wis. (WFRV) - Brown County supervisors didn't approve the latest offer from C. Reiss Company to move the downtown Green Bay coal piles. Instead, county officials said they will continue to negotiate with C. Reiss Company and will also have talks with other entities that have expressed interest in the Pulliam Power Plant property. Earlier this month, C. Reiss offered to either buy the former Pulliam Power Plant property (about 37 acres) for $3.5 million or lease the site for $110,000 per year with a 2 percent annual escalator. The initial term would have been for 25 years with an option to extend it for three 25-year terms.

Reiss CEO Keith Haselhoff released the following statement after the supervisors made their decision on Wednesday night: The County Board's actions demonstrate that it’s not interested in working with C. Reiss to move the coal piles or generate the millions in economic activity and job growth that would come from redeveloping our downtown Green Bay location. As a result, Brown County is now at significant risk of losing some $25 million in state and federal grants which were made in order to move the coal piles." -C Reiss CEO Keith Haselhoff Brown County supervisors Emily Jacobson and Megan Borchardt released a statement saying in part: "We, as County Board Supervisors, stand with the residents of Brown County. While we share the community’s desire to see the coal piles relocated, we cannot support a deal that places an unfair burden on taxpayers. This counteroffer is not a fair agreement—it is an overreach that compromises the county’s long-term interests."
