PUBLIC HEARING Director Mueller read the public hearing notice to consider petition of Justin Koeppler (AG Architecture), on behalf of the Basse Family Trust, to grant a rezoning amendment to the existing PD-42 Basse Planned Development District for the purpose of allowing additional multi- family units/use(s) along with the continued allowance of a portion of the development for commercial use(s). The subject property is known as Tax Key Numbers 2198.160 and 2198.161 located on Janesville Road. Planner Trzebiatowski provided the history of the Basse PD, which was originally approved in 2003. The developer is now proposing a total of 90 units broken down into a 50-unit building (Phase 1), a 40-unit building (Phase 2) and a possible future clubhouse (Phase 3). No changes are proposed to the 1.5 acre commercial lot. The total allowable units under the existing base zoning is 90.9. The developer is not requesting any bonus lots. As part of the PD zoning, the applicant is requesting that the 50-unit building be located with a 30-foot setback from the Janesville Road right-of-way as opposed to the 40 feet required with the underlying zoning. Common Council Minutes 2 November 28, 2017 Public Input: Mike Kuspa, S71 W16672 Glen Cove Court. Mr. Kuspa stated he represents the Forest Glen Homeowner’s Association. The members are generally in favor of the proposal. However, there are a few concerns: 1) Will a driveway eventually be cut into Glen Cove Court for the land to the west that is not part of this development? 2) The association is opposed to any application for federal funding. 3) There is a concern that the wetlands will be disturbed.
