Edgewood stadium lawsuit dismissed
On January 3, 2023, the United States District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin issued judgement in favor of the City Of Madison, dismissing all claims in Edgewood’s second lawsuit against the city over the denial of Edgewood’s stadium lights application.
No New Stadium appreciates the judge’s ruling, which acknowledges that the city rightfully followed zoning law in considering the impacts of this development on neighbors’ use and enjoyment of their properties. We support the neighborhood associations’ efforts to improve relationships with the Edgewood campus schools, based on respect and recognition of our shared rights and responsibilities.

THIS WILL IMPACT HOMES. Edgewood High School is already permitted to play unlimited day games. The installation of lights will allow them to use the field continuously.
CONTACT THE COMMON COUNCIL TODAY
The Common Council needs to hear from EVERYONE whose property will be impacted. This has the potential to inflict amplified sound around the clock—while you’re putting your children to bed, relaxing in your garden or simply trying to enjoy your home. In addition there will be increased evening traffic and parking on Monroe Street and the narrow streets surrounding the school.
We know there’s a lot going on right now. This is an issue that can affect your health, well-being and home value in the future. Please share this information with anyone who might be interested.
