NEW BUSINESS FOR CONSIDERATION
PC 047-2020 Discussion of a conceptual Certified Survey Map for Mark & Lynda Troeger
located at S110 W21050 South Denoon Road / Tax Key No. 2284.971.
Planner Trzebiatowski provided an overview of the conceptual CSM. The proposal is to
take two adjacent lots and create one additional lot and to adjust the lot lines on the two
existing lots. This is conceptual because these lots do not currently have frontage on a
public City road. Per the land division ordinance all new lots must have direct access to a
publicly dedicated right-of-way, that are improved to City road standards. Currently there
are five or six homes that share a private easement for access. The applicant is asking for
to be allowed to not have any right-of-way frontage and utilize the existing easement for an

additional residential lot. There is an option to create irregularly shaped lots with proper
frontage. Additionally, the 2020 Comprehensive Plan requires a density that would require a
larger lot size. The conceptual land division does meet the Zoning Code.
Alderman Kubacki has no problems with the additional lot using the access easement and
the road is well maintained by the neighbors. Alderman Kubacki asked how short they are
of lot size. Planner Trzebiatowski explained they are .64 acres short based on the density of
the Comprehensive Plan.
Commissioner Jacques is good with the proposal.
PC 048-2020 Discussion of a conceptual Certified Survey Map for Bryon Hrin located at
S99 W20523 Parker Drive / Tax Key No. 2280.999.014.
Planner Trzebiatowski provided an overview of the conceptual land division. Originally four
lots were split off and the right-of-way dedicated. With this master plan there would be two
lots and existing farm fronting Parker Drive. Four lots and an outlot would front Madyson
Court. There are drainage concerns and the applicant has been working with the City
engineers already.
Alderman Kubacki knows there are water issues and he wanted to make sure this is
engineered well as there are water issues extending south from this location. Alderman
Kubacki asked if the water will be able to moved east and southeast as there is already a
pond there.
Mark, the civil engineer on the project said that they have been working with the City
engineers and MMSD regarding the stormwater. On lot 3 there is a depression and tile
draining to the east and they intend to maintain the current conditions. According to MMSD
more water will remain on site after the development than currently leaves the site. Mark is
confident all the water will remain on -site. The cul-de-sac bulb will be flipped to
accommodate the frontage requirements.
RESOLUTION PC 051-2020 Approval of a Building, Site and Operation Plan Amendment
for Muskego Lakes Middle School located at W124 S8009 North Cape Road & S81
W12904 Hi View Drive / Tax Key Nos. 2209.999 & 2209.987.
Planner Trzebiatowski explained that due to the COVID concerns and keeping the students
spaced out, the School District is anticipating more students being dropped off and is
requesting to be able to utilize the emergency access to accommodate additional parental
drop-offs. All traffic will enter the site from North Cape Road. Fifth and sixth grade parents
would drop off students in the southern front parking lot and exit back onto North Cape
Road. Buses will utilize the northern front parking lot and the 7t" and 8t" grade parents
would be routed around the back of the school and would leave through the emergency
access. The concerns from by the school district is the merging point for all three parking
areas to exit onto North Cape Road and the congestion that it may cause. The emergency
access would be for exit only for the 71" and 81" grade parents only during drop off and pick
up times.
Alderman Kubacki asked if the emergency access gate would be locked after the peak drop
off and pick up times. Would prefer this be done to alleviate additional traffic.
Commissioner Graf would like signage added. Jeremiah Johnson of the School District said
they can lock between the hours and will add signage since traffic will not be entering the

grounds from the point, but only exiting. Mayor Petfalski stressed "Do Not Enter" signs to
make sure there is no cut -through traffic.
Commissioner Jacques made a motion to approve Resolution PC 051-2020. Alderman
Kubacki seconded. Alderman Kubacki made a motion to amend the resolution to add
signage and lock the access drive during non -peak times. Commissioner Jacques
seconded. Motion to amend Resolution passed unanimously. Motion to approve Amended
Resolution PC 051-2020 passed unanimously.
RESOLUTION PC 052-2020 Approval of a Building, Site and Operation Plan Amendment
for Serendipity ReDesign / Soiree located at S73 W16582 Janesville Road / Tax Key No.
2198.993.
Planner Trzebiatowski reminded the Plan Commission that in 2019 the applicant was
approved to install a gravel parking area on the northeast part of the site and paved by June
30, 2020, which was tied to their Business Registration and liquor license. The gravel was
installed and the Common Council extended the deadline for the pavement to September
30, 2020. The applicant is seeking an extension until June 30, 2021 due to the uncertainty
in the past and future with the COVID pandemic as they were closed for a period of time.
The applicant is also seeking approval for an outdoor seating area consisting of patio
furniture, fire pit and small gazebo on a grassy area west of the building to allow patrons to
sit outside. Any hardscape improvements would need approvals.
Commissioner Jacques agrees to extend the deadline for the paved parking area and
questioned why the outdoor seating is being discussed rather than reviewed and approved
by staff. Mayor Petfalski explained the temporary outdoor seating is reviewed by staff, but
this is permanent.
Commissioner Oliver also thinks the deadline for the paving should be extended because
the paving will be a much better application if allowed to settle for a full winter season. For
the outside seating this is a natural venue for todays economy.
Commissioner Graf asked if there are plans for any improvements for the seating area. Rich
Hahne, Soiree, explained that there are no planned improvements just some temporary
furniture for now. Commissioner Graf thinks the outdoor seating area should be looked at
again in a years' time to see some sort of plan for any improvements if this goes well and
some sort of formality to the proposal. Alderman Kubacki agreed.
Rick Hahne clarified that the June 30th date was to have a plan, not to execute the plan.
Alderman Kubacki wanted to clarify that the amended approval is for the paving and plan for
permanent outdoor seating is until June 30, 2020.
Alderman Kubacki made a motion to approve Resolution PC 052-2020. Commissioner
Jacques seconded. Commissioner Graf made a motion to amend the resolution for the
applicant to come back to the Plan Commission by June 30, 2020 with a plan for permanent
outdoor seating. Alderman Kubacki seconded. Motion to amend Resolution passed
unanimously. Motion to approve Amended Resolution PC 052-2020 passed unanimously.
