Common Council
The Gateway to Milwaukee is a community of businesses, commercial property owners and resources supporting the area around the airport and those who live, work, relax and play there. “Aerotropolis Milwaukee” is the brand name for the efforts of Gateway to Milwaukee. Gateway was created as a result of the Airport Area Economic Task Force, which Alderman Witkowski created. The Task Force was composed of representatives from seven suburbs, the state, the county, nonprofits and private business. Aerotropolis Milwaukee is becoming a vibrant and diverse transportation and commercial hub connecting the Milwaukee region with the rest of the world as a globally recognized economic engine. Alderman Witkowski currently serves on the Gateway Board and continues to be involved in its evolution. Click here for more details.
