S6460 Racine Avenue / Tax Key No. 2177.996.
Planner Trzebiatowski explained that this was supposed to be a one-time review for Fleet Farm. Everything
that was a concern at the March 3, 2025 Plan Commission meeting has been addressed. The Resolution
should be amended to add that everything is now in compliance. Additionally, the Plan Commission should
discuss whether there should be any additional reviews as the Resolution is drafted to end yearly reviews with
this approval.
Alderman Kubacki asked if this was an annual review. Planner Trzebiatowski noted that it was meant to be a
one-time review after they were open for about a year.

pallets in the back of the store, the sales displays between gas pumps and the ice machine that did not match
the building.

there was none.

NEW BUSINESS FOR CONSIDERATION
RESOLUTION PC 016-2025 Recommendation to Common Council to amend the Zoning Map
and 2020 Comprehensive Plan for the City of Muskego for three (3) vacant lots for Daryl
Borchardt of the Oakridge Glen Subdivision located along Hackberry Hill Court / Tax Key Nos.
2172.070, 2172.076 and 2172.077.
Planner Trzebiatowski explained that this request pertains to the very east side of the Oak Ridge Subdivision
that was created for multi -family area adjacent to the Basse Farm to the east. Last year there was a petition
and subsequent approval to rezone two lots in the area and now this petition is for three more lots to be
rezoned from multi -family to single-family uses. These areas are adjacent to existing single-family lots.
Commissioner Bartlett asked if there are any more lots that remain multi -family. Planner Trzebiatowski said
there were nine more multi -family lots.
Mayor Petfalski noted that the original goal of the Common Council was that the residential side would come
through prior to the businesses and so the multi -family uses were a buffer between the single-family and
businesses.
Commissioner Bartlett said that there is still future development that could happen in the field, and he could
see some screening being addressed with that future development.
Commissioner Graf made a motion to approve Resolution PC 016-2025. Commissioner Bartlett seconded.
Motion to approve Resolution PC 016-2025 passed unanimously.
RESOLUTION PC 017-2025 Approval of a Conditional Use Grant (CUG) and Building, Site
and Operation Plan Amendment for MKE Motor Cars located at S83 W18346 Saturn Drive /
Tax Key No. 2223.001.
Planner Trzebiatowski explained this petition is in a multi -tenant building that will be subleased from Blue Line
Auto. There will be two spaces in front for vehicle sales, employee parking in the back, interior space for a
showroom and three spaces identified in the back for service staging.
Alderman Kubacki made a motion to approve Resolution PC 017-2025. Commissioner Oliver seconded.
Motion to approve Resolution PC 017-2025 passed unanimously.
RESOLUTION PC 018-2025 Approval of a Conditional Use Grant (CUG) and Building, Site
and Operation Plan Amendment for Werks Autosport located at W184 S8365 Challenger
Drive / Tax Key No. 2223.994.004.
Planner Trzebiatowski explained this space has housed auto uses previously and due to code interpretation
change the petitioner is coming in to help clean things up and adding a few spaces for vehicle sales.
Alderman Kubacki made a motion to approve Resolution PC 018-2025. Commissioner Bartlett seconded.
Motion to approve Resolution PC 018-2025 passed unanimously.
RESOLUTION PC 021-2025 Approval of a Metal Accessory Structure for Daniel Chaltry of
Everlast Structures on behalf of Ed Herda located at W145 S9685 Groveway Lane / Tax Key No.
2261.980.
Planner Trzebiatowski describe the new accessory structure on the site with metal exterior materials. It is
located at the southern dead-end of Groveway Lane bordered to the west by the lake, toward the south is
weltand, lowland and forest along with a house across the street and a neighbor to the north with a tree
separation. The building will be back behind the home. There is some character to the building with the
overhang in front by the service door. One item to note is that there is an existing shed that was going to be
taken down, but the petitioner would like to keep it and it fits within the allowable square footage of accessory
structures. One of the conditions is to have a survey completed as this is right to the extent of the offsets so
the building is constructed in the proper location. No business activities are allowed similar to all other
accessory structures.
Alderman Kubacki confirmed that the building will be 275 feet from Groveway Lane.
Commissioner Bartlett just wanted to clarify that the waiver to exterior materials is due to it being far off the
road, not very visible, highly screened, behind the existing house, etc.
Commissioner Cieslak noted that it says the building will be removed. Planner Trzebiatowski noted that with
the second building it is within the size allowance. Planner Trzebiatowski also noted that they may move the
building towards the house just a few feet, which will be reviewed during permitting.
Commissioner Graf made a motion to approve Resolution PC 021-2025. Commissioner Bartlett seconded.
Motion to approve Resolution PC 021-2025 passed unanimously.
