Badger Cab, a long time resident of the Tenney-Lapham Neighborhood, will soon be moving most of its operations to the Marquette Neighborhood. Tom Melms, Badger Cab's owner, reported that the company was planning to move its business operations from its present location at the corner of North Few Street and Curtis Court to a group of existing structures at the corner of South Ingersoll and East Main Streets with the move tentatively completed by the end of March.

Mr. Melms stated that the move was a consolidation move, one intended to address their space needs since they were "all packed up" at their present facility and the move would put all their administrative operations in one building. He also said that since they were unable to find additional space at their present location, it made sense to look at the new site when it became available because their propane fueling facility was adjacent to the building they were considering.

In the discussion about their move, Mr. Melms confirmed that the cab company's storage lot on East Washington Avenue would be taken over by The Avenue Bar to address their parking needs but he said that the maintenance operations would continue at the current garage building.
