A separate crash sent five people to the hospital Wednesday afternoon.

PLEASANT PRAIRIE (WLIP)–The Village of Pleasant Prairie is moving forward with plans for the former WE Energies Power Plant Site.

The village plan commission gave a favorable recommendation for both a Master Conceptual Plan and a Certified Map Survey for the portion of the land at 8000 95th Street.

The map survey splits the property into three lots. Lot 2 specifically will be 198 acres along 95th Street and will be sold for industrial development.

The existing utility substations on the other lots remain at least for now.

The Master Conceptual Plan proposes constructing three industrial buildings on Lot 2, generally located north of 95th Street, between the Canadian Pacific and Union Pacific Railways.
