A former Green Bay priest who served six years in prison for sexually assaulting a child has won city approval to live on the west side.

Donald Buzanowski, 69, formerly of SS. Peter & Paul Parish in Green Bay, will be permitted to live in a state-run transitional living facility at 1761 Shawano Ave.

He was among 13 offenders whose appeals were considered this week by the Green Bay Sex Offender Residence Board.

A city ordinance prohibits convicted sex offenders from living within 2,000 feet of a school, park or other place where children gather. That covers virtually the entire city and requires offenders to get permission before moving here.
