City of Rhinelander

“Tourism remains a major economic driver for Rhinelander and generates significant spending in our businesses."

Rhinelander’s parking situation took up a large portion of Rhinelander’s last common council meeting.It was spurred by an idea to turn Brown Street, the main street downtown, into a one way.

Community members gathered at Hodag Park in Rhinelander Wednesday for the groundbreaking of a new splash pad.

The City of Rhinelander is looking at its next steps for its municipal wells after Nicolet College declined to be the site of a new one.The city shut down two of its wells in 2019 because of PFAS contamination.There are enough remaining wells to meet current water demands— But the city will need a new well to keep up with future growth.

Nicolet Technical College does not approve of the City of Rhinelander installing a new municipal well on its property.The decision comes after the college held a community listening session, commissioned a peer review of materials related to the project’s environmental impact, and consulted with legal counsel.

The Rhinelander City Council wants feedback on whether to convert the main downtown street into a one-way.

A reminder that Rhinelander had to move its fireworks from Hodag Park to Westside park this year.

Being discussed would be making Brown Street one-way between Anderson Street and Frederick Street

At its May 12th meeting, Rhinelander Common Council approved a proposal from Wendel-Five Bugles for design work for the new emergency services building.

The current goal is for the splash pad to be put in this summer and the playground next year.
