RESOLUTION #P.C. 021-2005 – Approval of a Conceptual Building, Site, and Operation Plan
for Muskego Lakes Country Club located in the NE ¼ of Section 26 (Tax Key No. 2261.978.001
/ Loomis Road). This resolution was read by title only. Commissioner Stinebaugh made a
motion to approve. Commissioner Michalski seconded. Petitioner proposing a 7,200 square
foot accessory structure that will be the main storage facility for the Country Club. The
accessory structure will be located close to the existing clubhouse along the portion of the
property that abuts Stonebridge Subdivision. The structure will be screened by a landscaped
berm. Currently there are storage facilities on the northern portion of the property. Due to the
proposed condominium project, the current storage facilities will be removed. The new
structure will be constructed out of steel siding and roofing with colors of tans and browns. The
access and overhead doors will be white. Petitioners had a meeting with staff, wherein they
were informed that the property lies within the General Design Guide area for the City. The
guide recommends that all commercial/industrial structures must adhere to using 50% masonry
product on any new structure. Commissioner Stinebaugh stated that he visited the site and
feels that this structure could impact the surrounding area. The subdivision to the east has
high-end properties with a golf course view. Discussion ensued with Commissioners Hulbert,
Michalski and Schaumberg agreeing with Commissioner Stinebaugh that petitioner should
propose a different design goal. Suggestions given were to have 100% brick with the best
roofing materials. All materials should match the clubhouse and the proposed landscaped
berm should be removed.
Mr. James Bonin, Chief Operations Officer for Muskego Country Club, addressed the
Commission. The subdivision to the east has no affiliation to the Country Club. He suggested
to add vegetation around the building or perhaps change colors so as to have it blend in with
the area. This is not going to be an entertainment building. If proposed building is relocated,
will the requirements change. More discussion took place regarding new location of building.
If it is placed totally out of sight, Commission will be receptive to less materials. Petitioner
agreed to have item deferred to redo proposal considering suggestions that were discussed at
meeting. Commissioner Hulbert made a motion to defer. Commissioner Stinebaugh seconded.
Upon a voice vote, Resolution #P.C. 021-2005 was DEFERRED unanimously.
RESOLUTION #P.C. 022-2005 – Approval of an amended Building, Site, and Operation Plan
for Bushy’s Pub and Grill located in the SW ¼ of Section 2 (Tax Key No. 2167.997 / S67
W14831 Janesville Road). This resolution was read by title only. Commissioner Schaumberg
made a motion to approve. Commissioner Hulbert seconded. During final inspection of Phase
I, a few architectural elements were missing. The missing elements are: south elevation --- 1.
dormer window is not part of the new building. 2. box windows missing from the door entrance
extending to the left and right. West elevation --- box windows missing under the deck canopy.
Petitioner informed staff that the windows were omitted due to internal placements of
audio/visual devices. After site inspection, staff sees no negative affect on the overall design of
the building. Alderman Buckmaster does not see this as an issue. However, Common Council
passed an ordinance to have the Community Development Authority review Building Site and
Operation Plans for properties in the Tess Corners Design Guide area. This being a smaller
issue (amendment) and the fact that the Community Development Authority was not involved in
the original Building Site and Operation Plan; it was suggested that the resolution be amended
and have the item discussed at the next CDA meeting which will be February 28, 2005.
Alderman Buckmaster made a motion to amend the Resolution to add, BE IT FURTHER
RESOLVED, The amendment is contingent upon receiving a positive recommendation
from the Community Development Authority. Commissioner Hulbert seconded. Upon a

a motion to approve. Commissioner Schaumberg seconded. Petitioner received approval for
increased parking, new lighting, and new access path. Plan Commission requested that the
school extend a paved path from the City trails that abut school property to the north down to
