WHEREAS, The 2020 Comprehensive Plan already identifies this area for commercial land use, and

WHEREAS, The architecture shown in the various colored renderings provided as part of the submittal
show varying detail of materials and colors used throughout the facades of the structure, and
WHEREAS, This area of the City is governed by the Moorland Corridor South Design Guide and the

the various colored renderings provided:
Light and Dark Faced Brick

WHEREAS, The proposed building adapts to the Moorland South Design Guide well using multiple
types of materials, creating horizontal lines, utilizing decorative brackets along the roof coping, tapering
columns, utilizing standing seam gabeled roofs, and using windows with horizontal mullions, and
WHEREAS, The building sits lower compared to passersby on Janesville Road which may result in
seeing the back of the parapet walls on the roofline and these walls will be built with the main materials
used on each side, and

feet in width and one-way aisles are at least 12 feet in width, and
WHEREAS, Vehicular access to the site is shown to occur in one access point off of Princeton Drive,
and
WHEREAS, The access off of Princeton Drive will be surrounded by a cross access easement that is
shown on the CSM that will ensure a future access for an owner to the parcel to the west as well as
lessen the access points along Princeton Drive, and
WHEREAS, Parking is shown as 26 stalls all meeting the city code dimensions of 10’x20’, and
WHEREAS, The amount of parking stalls provided meets typical code requirements for a restaurant
facility of this type as Muskego typically ensures that 2 stalls are required per 100 SF of customer floor
area, and
WHEREAS, The building has 727 SF of customer floor area, which would usually require 15 stalls, and
WHEREAS, The site and building plans are subject to Fire Department approvals and the submittal

WHEREAS, A dumpster enclosure is proposed along the south portion of the site and the enclosure is
to be constructed as a brick embossed concrete poured wall that is colored to match the principal

WHEREAS, A landscape plan has been submitted as part of the proposal showing ample plantings
and a few extra plantings may be required along the entrance off of Princeton Drive for increased
screening to homes here, and

identification signage (directional and drive thru signage) and all signage proposed appears to meet
code requirements but will be subject to future staff approvals at building permit time, and
WHEREAS, A photometric plan has been submitted and shows appropriate lighting levels per code on
the site, and
WHEREAS, Site lighting is proposed as approximately nine (9) LED polelights and various structure
cylindrical LED wall sconces, and
WHEREAS, Polelights are to have a 6-inch concrete base and be 18 feet in height all matching city
