City of Platteville To Continue To Lease Space at Platteville Public Library
The city of Platteville will continue to lease the space housing the Platteville Public Library. According to a report, the city will keep leasing the space located on West Main Street from Platteville Hotel Partners, LLC. There were talks last year about the city potentially taking ownership of the space. However, Platteville Hotel Partners was unable to get the necessary authorization from its lien underwriter to donate the space. Platteville City Manager Clint Langreck says that, right now, the city will let the current lease automatically extend for another three years.
