NEW BUSINESS FOR CONSIDERATION RESOLUTION #P.C. 054-2004 – Approval for sale of fireworks for Vince and Heather Siegel at the JetzFuel property located in the SW ¼ of Section 2 (Tax Key No. 2167.995.011 / S69 W15461 Janesville Road). This resolution was read by title only. Commissioner Stinebaugh made a motion to approve. Commissioner Schaumberg seconded. Interim Plan Director Muenkel stated that petitioner is proposing to operate a temporary fireworks stand in the NW corner of the JetzFuel parking lot. Fireworks sales have not operated at this location, however, the Resolution is drafted to allow temporary outdoor sales subject to Plan Commission approval. The Fire Department brought to staff’s attention their Wisconsin Chief Fire Officer Guidebook. The guidebook states that storage and handling of fireworks may not occur within 50 feet where gasoline is dispensed. Staff has recommended two alternative sites for the fireworks stand. Discussion ensued regarding the proposed and alternative locations. Issues considered were public safety especially relating to the drive thru area, the proximity to the gas pumps and holding areas and obstructing the drainage inlets. Alderman Buckmaster made a motion to amend Resolution to add, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That if the original location is outside of the 50 foot distance from the gasoline pumps, the temporary fireworks stand will be located in the northwest corner of the JetzFuel parking lot. If the original location is within the 50 foot distance, the temporary stand will be located south of the car wash and east of the vacuum area. Commissioner Schaumberg seconded. Upon a voice vote, Resolution #P.C. 054-2004 was Amended. Upon a roll call vote, Amended Resolution #P.C. 054-2004 was Adopted unanimously.

This resolution was read by title only. Commissioner Hulbert made a motion to approve. Commissioner Stinebaugh seconded. Petitioner proposing to construct a 3,056 square foot dental office facility to be located south of the Discovery Days building. Proposal meets the majority of the code requirements. The required setback is 40 feet, this proposal shows 25 feet. The property is zoned B-2/OPD. The Planned Development zoning allows for reduced setback with Plan Commission approval. After reviewing the landscape plan, the City Forester is requiring all disturbed areas to be sodded. Access will be provided through cross- access easements from Discovery Days and existing drives from Kwik Trip. Petitioner will be responsible for recording the cross-access easements prior to occupancy. Parking is sufficient for proposed use. Mr. Eric Neumann from MSI General approached the Commission stating that the disturbed land will be sodded per City Forester’s recommendation. All mechanicals will be screened from view. Signage has not been submitted. A monument sign will be brought to Plan Commission for approval in the future. The monument sign will address both Discovery Days and Dr. Connell’s Dental Office. Mr. Neumann assured the Commission that this facility will compliment the Discovery Days structure, it is not their intent to have the buildings match. Upon a roll call vote, Resolution #P.C. 057-2004 was Adopted unanimously. PAGE 2 Plan Commission Minutes, continued May 18, 2004 RESOLUTION #P.C. 058-2004 – Approval of a sketch preliminary plat for the Basse/Rasmussen properties located in the SW ¼ of Section 3 and the NW ¼ of Section 10 (Tax Key Nos. 2171.999 and 2198.999 / Janesville Road). This resolution was read by title only. Commissioner Stinebaugh made a motion to approve. Commissioner Schaumberg seconded. Petitioner proposing a plan consisting of 42 single family parcels and 2 outlots on 31 acres. The proposal meets the City requirements. The Police Department brought to staff’s attention the concern of a direct route from Martin Drive to Janesville Road. This route could cause potential problems with speed and safety in the subdivision. Staff recommends that a cul-de-sac be shown on the Rasmussen property. Upon a roll call vote, Resolution #P.C. 058-2004 was Adopted unanimously. RESOLUTION #P.C. 051-2004 - Approval of a Building Site and Operation Plan and Condominium Plat for St. Andrews Village Condominiums, located in the NE ¼ and NW ¼ of Section 25 (Tax Key Nos. 2258.995 and 2261.978/ Ryan Road). This resolution was read by title only. Commissioner Stinebaugh made a motion to approve. Commissioner Schaumberg seconded. Interim Plan Director Muenkel stated petitioner is proposing twenty-four side-by- side condominiums which will house forty-eight dwelling units. The approved master plan included seventy-five dwellings and this proposal is within that approval. The proposed structures will have the options to be one or two stories with different facades. Staff is recommending that a material such as hardi-plank or comparable be used to withstand abuse from the golf course. All buildings are above the 50% masonry requirement. After discussions with Staff, the petitioners have resubmitted showing that hardi-plank will be used instead of vinyl siding. Windows made of impact resistant material is also recommended. Mr. Paul Votto of Burke Properties addressed the Commission requesting flexibility of planting trees in groupings rather than in a line and 50 feet apart. The required number of trees will be planted but in groupings where applicable. Improvements will be done with each phase of development. This development will be done in three phases. Mr. Votto agreed that their plans are to connect to sewer along Ryan Road and will be done all at one time for the entire development. Upon a roll call vote, Resolution #P.C. 051-2004 was Adopted unanimously. RESOLUTION #P.C. 052-2004 – Recommendation to Council to rezone lands for St. Andrews Village Condominiums from R-3 Country Home District to RSA/OPD Attached Single-Family Residence with a Planned Development Overlay District, located in the NE ¼ and NW ¼ of Section 25 (Tax Key Nos. 2258.995 and 2261.978/ Ryan Road). This resolution was read by title only. Commissioner Stinebaugh made a motion to approve. Commissioner Schaumberg seconded. Petitioner received conceptual approval in 2003 and this proposal conforms to the conceptual approval. A Public Hearing was held on May 11, 2004 before the Common Council. This petition would permit sewered residential development for two family attached residences. Upon a roll call vote, Resolution #P.C. 052-2004 was Adopted unanimously. RESOLUTION #P.C. 048-2004 – Approval of a Building Site and Operation Plan for Lindale Residences located in the SE ¼ of Section 3 (Tax Key No. 2169.987.004 / Martin Drive). This resolution was read by title only. Commissioner Stinebaugh made a motion to approve. Commissioner Schaumberg seconded. Petitioner is proposing 48 multi-family units. Staff has many issues regarding this proposal. The developer has met with staff and is in the process of making numerous changes along with submitting a condominium plat for this development. Discussion ensued wherein some of the major concerns from the Staff were parking, architecture and layout of buildings, fire access and snow storage. Guest parking wasn’t PAGE 3 Plan Commission Minutes, continued May 18, 2004 reasonably adjacent to the intended users. Better access should be accommodated internally in the development and issues such as snow storage and fire access should be taken into better consideration. Due to the high visibility area, consensus of Commission would like to see architectural elements on the side and rear elevations of the buildings including adding more brick products and breaking up the facades of the structures to possibly staggering the units. The row housing proposal presented was not well received by the Commission as they felt the units would be boxed units that looked like those in New Berlin, North of Janesville Road just outside of the City of Muskego border. These thoughts were derived from the original concept approval for this development. Overall, the Commission felt that there are too many units being proposed for this layout and a possible entire new submittal would potentially be needed. Commissioner Hulbert made a motion to defer. Alderman Buckmaster seconded. Upon a voice vote, Resolution #P.C. 048-2004 was Deferred unanimously.

It was the consensus of the Commission that it is difficult to approve buildings without seeing color renderings. Having the renderings in the packets to be reviewed prior to the meeting, would be advantageous to the Commission. It was determined that this item could be requested of the developers when submitting their proposals. ADJOURNMENT Commissioner Hulbert made a motion to adjourn at 8:42 p.m. Commissioner Michalski seconded. Upon a voice vote, motion carried. With no further business to come before the Commission, the meeting was adjourned. Respectfully submitted, Sandra S. Asti Recording Secretary PAGE 5
