Office of the Mayor

Allan J. Krizenesky

As Mayor, I am proud to welcome you to the City of Peshtigo's official website. Peshtigo is historically known as "The City Rebuilt from Ashes", as it had the worst recorded forest fire in North America, claiming over 1,000 lives.

Presently, Peshtigo is growing rapidly as one of the most industrious small cities around, and in the past 17 years, has developed a 241 acre Industrial Park,  plus privately owned lots. To compliment expansion, the City has two loans available (W.D.F. and U.D.A.G.) which exist to provide business and industry financial assistance to locate, expand, and to continue operations in the City.

Because I am an avid fisherman and hunter, I appreciate the luxury of having the Peshtigo river flow thru the heart of the City which allows me to catch various species of fish without leaving the City limits and to also hunt without driving great distances.

Personally, I feel Peshtigo is the perfect place to live, work, raise a family, vacation and retire. We have an excellent school system, Police Department, Fire Department, City Crew and Parks program, and yet have a low tax base compared with most cities our size. For more information contact:
