Zoning Board of Appeals 42-1992CITY OF MUSKEGO
BOARD OF APPEALS
MINUTES OF BOARD OF APPEALS MEETING HELD ON SEPTEMBER 24, 1992.
Chairman Gerald Fohr called the meeting to order at 7:32 P.M.
PRESENT: Chairman Gerald Fohr, Terry O'Neil, Lloyd Erno,
Thomas Berken, Donald Pionek, Robert Vitt, and
Chuck Dykstra, Sr.
ABSENT: Darryl Rowinski
MINUTES: Mr. Erno made a motion to approve the minutes of the
August 27, 1992 meeting, and Mr. O'Neil seconded. Upon a voice
vote, the motion to adopt the minutes passed unanimously.
APPEAL 37-92- Lynn Kurer, S67 W14831 Janesville Road, Muskego,
Wisconsin, was unable to appear due to surgery. She will need to
resubmit a new appeal and fee if she still wants to pursue this
appeal.
APPEAL 41-92- Donald A. Erno, 5103 W20251 Kelsey Drive, Muskego,
Wisconsin, appeared appealing the Building Inspector's decision to
deny a permit to fill a low area located to the south of his
existing home. The area in question hasn't been filled in 16
years since the City redid Kelsey Drive. He is requesting this
permit to fill a low spot in his back yard so the water doesn't
pocket and also to alleviate a mosquito problem. The site was
examined by Chuck Dykstra and without current and accurate
topographical information on this site, he doesn't know what
effect the filling would have on surrounding areas. Mr. Erno is
requesting permission to haul in at least 10 truckloads of clay
mixture from a recent subdivision. Mr. Henry Herdeman, 5103
W20171 Kelsey Drive, a neighbor, objected to his request stating
that the water would just be diverted to his property that much
faster. The City requires a fill permit for any amounts over
2,000 square feet and does not allow any filling if it will
direct water to another property owner. The low spot to be filled
is 50' x 100 and approximately 3 feet deep.
APPEAL 42-92- Address amended from Public Notice Hearing to read
Muskego Moose Lodge, S86 W21693 Janesville Road, Muskego,
Wisconsin. Representatives: Karl Wegner (Moose Lodge President),
Brent Ryan (Contractor), and Dan Hilt (Advisor) appeared to
request a variance of 35' from the setback requirement of 75'
measured from the Janesville Rd. right-of-way and a 40' variance
to the offset requirement of 50' at the East property line to
construct a new building. Zoning A with an OHS overlay.
The Moose Lodge was originally going to get it rezoned to B2
instead of applying for two variances. Agricultural zoning with
OHS overlay allows commercial use. A larger setback is required
on agricultural zoning to allow for more open land. Existing
building and sheds will be removed to accommodate space for the

new building. There will be a service driveway off of Janesville,
with the majority of traffic coming in from Crowbar.
APPEAL 43-92- Amended from the Public Hearing Notice to read for
a firewall and to a 274 sq. ft. size variance. Greg Wieckowski,
S64 W 18807 School Drive, Muskego, Wisconsin, appeared requesting
variances to construct a 24 x 36 ft. detached 2nd garage
structure. Mr. Wieckowski is the owner of 3 original lots.
Zoning is RS3 / OED. He needs the storage for extra cars he is
not working on and lawn & gardening supplies. This structure will
be used strictly for storage and a driveway won't be needed at
this time.
