NEW BUSINESS FOR CONSIDERATION
RESOLUTION #P.C. 008-2004 – Recommendation to Common Council to rezone the Schmitt
property from A, Agriculture District to RCE/COPD, Country Estate District with a Conservation
Planned Development Overlay District, located in the SE ¼ of Section 18 (Tax Key Nos.
2232.980 and 2232.981 / Hillendale Drive). This item was read by title only. Commissioner
Schaumberg made a motion to approve. Commissioner Stinebaugh seconded. Interim Plan
Director Muenkel stated that the property is currently zoned Agricultural District. The Petitioner
is proposing to rezone the property to Country Estate District with a Conservation Planned
Development Overlay. The rezoning would allow cluster development with conservancy. The
proposed rezoning of RCE is permissible under the 2010 Conservation Plan. A Public Hearing
was held on March 9, 2004 before the Common Council. All comments made by residents
were negative towards this development with noting that the increased density is too much for
this area. The rezoning would allow the density to only increase to three parcels more than
what is currently allowed. Upon a roll call vote, Resolution #P.C. 008-2004 was Adopted
unanimously.
RESOLUTION #P.C. 009–2004 – Approval of a Yield Plan and Conceptual Conservation
Subdivision of Heather’s Way for the Gayle Schmitt Property located in the SE ¼ of Section 18
(Tax Key Nos. 2232.980 and 2232.981 / Hillendale Drive). This item was read by title only.
Commissioner Schaumberg made a motion to approve. Commissioner Hulbert seconded.
Interim Plan Director Muenkel stated that petitioner submitted a yield plan consisting of
approximately thirty acres with ten residential parcels. However, the Yield Plan does not
provide for stormwater management and not all parcels meet the requirements of the
underlying zoning. Petitioner also submitted a sketch Conservation Subdivision proposing
fourteen residential parcels along with stormwater management outlots and open spaces
totaling 50% of the land area. The Conservation Planned Development Overlay would allow for
three bonus parcels providing all code requirements are met. This approval is for the
Conceptual Preliminary Plat being brought back to Plan Commission with an updated Yield Plan
being submitted that meets the requirements of the underlying zoning and provides for
stormwater management. Upon a roll call vote, Resolution #P.C. 009-2004 was Adopted
unanimously.
RESOLUTION #P.C. 024-2004 – Approval of an amendment to the Building Site and
Operation Plan for Onyx Emerald Park Land, LLC located in the NE ¼ of Section 36 (Tax Key
No. 2301.999 /USH 45). This item was read by title only. Commissioner Stinebaugh made a

modular engine generators with the possibly of six additional generators in the future. The
purpose of the generators will be to reuse the fuel produced by the landfill. Also proposed are
two permanent structures enclosed in fencing. Noise and lighting levels all meet City

#P.C. 024-2004 was Adopted unanimously.
RESOLUTION #P.C. 026-2004 – Approval of an amendment to a Building Site and
Operation Plan for EJ Salentine Auto located in the NE ¼ of Section 2 (Tax Key No. 2165.973 /
Janesville Road). This item was read by title only. Commissioner Hulbert made a motion to
approve. Commissioner Schaumberg seconded. Due to the widening of Janesville Road
petitioner proposing amendments to the existing Building, Site and Operation plan. The
proposal consists of changes in signage, parking, landscaping and lighting. After review, it was
determined that a new photometric plan be provided showing conformity to City standards.

Development Overlay for the Reynolds property located in the NW ¼ of Section 21 and NE ¼
of Section 20 (Tax Key Nos. 2242.994, 2237.993 and 2237.994 / Racine Avenue). This item
was read by title only. Commissioner Schaumberg made a motion to approve. Commissioner
Brodel seconded. Petitioner is proposing 74 single family parcels on approximately 72.5 acres
with an undetermined amount of outlots. Petitioner is requesting rezoning from Agricultural to
RS-2/OPD Suburban Residence District with a Planned Development Overlay. Discussion
ensued wherein the access area should be reconfigured to be more of a ninety-degree angle to
