There’s not enough room in town for the two of us: A petition filed by Bruno Hanney, owner of Bruno’s Self-Storage, to prevent another self-storage developer from pursuing a project less than 1 mile away, was rejected by the board of zoning appeals in Grafton, WI.
RJ Investments plans to build a competing facility at 1927 County Road W.; Hanney is building one at 1927 County Road W.
At a hearing on the petition, Hanney is quoted by GM Today stating: “We were just about to start construction, (and) I find out through the paper … the town just approved another storage facility a few hundred yards from me.”
