They are making another attempt in Menomonee Falls:

https://www.bizjournals.com/milwaukee/news/2024/01/08/rivian-automotive-inc-menomonee-falls.html

Community open house about the proposal on the 16th. I encourage as many to attend as possible.

I don't have a bizjournal account to see the full article, is the open house tonight? Or Feb 16th?


EDIT: Looks like it's tonight at 5:00pm - https://www.menomonee-falls.org/Calendar.aspx?EID=8341&month=1&year=2024&day=16&calType=0

From the Midwest Rivian Owners Group on Facebook.

“For those near the Menomonee Falls, WI area.

If you can attend the Menomonee Falls Village Board meeting on Monday, February 5 at 6:30pm, you will be able to hear if the Rivian Service Center for WI gets approved. A regional manager from Rivian will be at the meeting.

May be a good chance for them to meet local owners. And, if a public comment portion is permitted, would be great to voice support for the need of a service center in Wisconsin. Once the official agenda is posted, I will send out the link as well.”

Rezoning just passed 5-2. Good news.
You just beat me to it! I can't believe the shake down attempt for fire fighting equipment. Can't believe that would have been even remotely legal.....

Plus great job by the two owners....the one gentleman and the other fire fighter from Lake Country.

Yeah the guy just wouldn't stop about the "plugs". Was hoping to be there in person but watched the stream instead.

Maybe now I'll finally use my 2018 reservation and actually get one now that service might be a bit easier here in SE WI.

Great news! Congrats and well done to all of you who pushed for this. I do wonder if it’ll help our SC in the Twin Cities as well.

The Regional Manager I talked to mentioned that currently services requests for Wisconsin folks are going to both Chicago and the Twin Cities, so I expect it will help both!

That’s great!

I’ve unfortunately had 3 visits to the Twin Cities location, but they’ve really buttoned up my car, thankfully. During that time I spoke to a few of them and they’ve done a really great job hiring and bringing down wait times. They were at 2 months just late last year, now it’s within 2 weeks for an apt. This should only help more, so that’s fantastic.

I am out of town for a couple of weeks and testing mine for vamp drain parked at airport.

Once I get back I plan to make a drive by and see if anything has started.

Will report back later in March....

I might take a road trip to check it out this weekend. I'll take pictures if I can get close enough.

I work about 5 minutes from the site and live about 10 minutes away. I will try to swing by tomorrow morning on my way in to the office and report back on progress or activity, if anything.
