Oconomowoc advances fourth Olde Highlander phase with 93 additional homes

The Oconomowoc Common Council approved agreements tied to a fourth residential phase of Olde Highlander, advancing 93 additional homes within a development planned for approximately 354 residences.

The council action on June 16, 2026, also included agreements for public infrastructure connected to the project. The decision moves forward another section of the housing development while establishing additional municipal obligations related to the expansion.

Fourth phase adds 93 homes

Olde Highlander is a large residential development in Oconomowoc. Its fourth phase is expected to add 93 units, while the full project is planned to include about 354 homes.

Nearly half of the homes were already under construction when the development was reported in June. That means construction activity was already underway across a substantial portion of the planned project as the city considered agreements for the next phase.

The latest action advances agreements associated with the fourth phase. It does not establish that all approximately 354 homes are authorized for immediate construction; the broader total describes the project as planned, while the council action addressed the specific phase and related agreements.

Infrastructure agreements accompany housing expansion

Public-infrastructure agreements were part of the city’s action. Those agreements connect the additional housing phase with the public improvements and municipal responsibilities required as the development proceeds.

For Oconomowoc, the decision affects both the city’s future housing supply and the infrastructure work needed to support continued residential construction. It also gives the development another formal municipal step after work had already begun on much of the larger project.

A project-related deadline was reported for Aug. 14, 2026. The deadline is tied to the development, but the public account does not identify the specific obligation or milestone it covers.

The Olde Highlander agreements were considered through the city’s Common Council and related planning actions. The development’s reported total remains approximately 354 homes, including the 93 units in the fourth phase, while construction and future occupancy will proceed according to the project’s separate approvals and agreements.
