APPROVAL OF SKETCH PRELIMINARY PLAT AND CONCEPTUAL REZONING FROM SW SHORELAND-WETLAND AND A AGRICULTURAL TO RS-2 SUBURBAN RESIDENCE DISTRICT FOR A PROPERTY LOCATED IN THE NE ¼ and
NW ¼ OF SECTION 21 (TAX KEY NO. 2241.999 / RACINE AVENUE)
WHEREAS, On December 27, 2005 a sketch preliminary plat was submitted by Alesci Enterpises, Inc. for a property located in the NE ¼ and NW ¼ of Section 21 (Tax Key No. 2241.999 /
Racine Avenue), and
WHEREAS, The plan consists of approximately 61.5 acres, proposes 61 single-family parcels and 2 outlots, and
WHEREAS, Said properties are zoned SW Shoreland-Wetland District and A Agricultural District and the plat will require a rezoning to RS-2 Suburban residence District, and
WHEREAS, The RS-2 Suburban Residence District requires lots to have a minimum of 20,000 square feet and a minimum of 110 feet in width and the parcels depicted meet these requirements,
and
WHEREAS, The SW Shoreland-Wetland District may require longer approval processes due to the State mandates that surround this vital zoning district, and
WHEREAS, The 2010 Comprehensive Plan depicts this area for medium density residential development consistent with RS-2 or RS-3 zoning and the plat will not require an amendment to
the plan if the proposal remains the same, and
WHEREAS, Said parcels will be serviced by City sanitary sewer and water, and
WHEREAS, Access is depicted to derive from Racine Avenue and from an un-named road off of Woods Road and the City and Waukesha County may require increased improvements to Racine
Avenue and Woods Road as part of the proposed development, and
WHEREAS, Internal connectivity is not found throughout all the parcels in the sketch and changes may be required, and
WHEREAS, Access stubs may be needed to a property to the southeast of the proposal as this property is slated for single-family residential use in the future and would otherwise have
limited access, and
WHEREAS, The Land Division Code states that cul-de-sacs should be a maximum of 1320 feet in length after an intersection and the sketch depicts areas that conflict with this requirement,
and
WHEREAS, Martin Drive is depicted to have an ultimate width of 100-feet consistent with The 2010 Street System Plan shows Racine Avenue as having an ultimate width of 100-feet and
the property is already dedicated to this requirement, and
WHEREAS, Wetlands are found throughout the plat within outlots and on individual parcels and changes may be needed to better protect these wetlands, and
WHEREAS, The Park and Open Space Plan depicts no recommendations for this piece of property, and
WHEREAS, The Conservation Plan depicts Medium Acquisition Priorities within the proposed sketch area and those areas appear to be the delineated wetlands on the southern portion of
the sketch, and
WHEREAS, The Plat is required to provide on-site stormwater management as required by Chapter 34, and stormwater is depicted to be handled in detention facilities within the outlots.
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, That the Plan Commission approves of a sketch preliminary plat as proposed by Alesci Enterprises, Inc. for the property located in the NE ¼ and NW ¼ of Section
21 and will be receptive to the submittal of a preliminary plat and conceptual rezoning from SW Shoreland-Wetland District and A Agricultural District to RS-2 Suburban Residence District.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, Due to the locations of the now delineated wetlands and the current 2010 Comprehensive Plan mapping, the Plan Commission approves of a conceptual Zoning from
SW Shoreland-Wetland District and A Agricultural District to RS-2 Suburban Residence District and the petitioner will have to submit a formal rezoning request to be processed by the
City and State of Wisconsin authorities (Due to State mandates that surround the Shoreland-Wetland District) before actual changes are made to the Official Zoning Map.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the developer is aware that increased improvements to Racine Avenue, Woods Road, and the Unnamed Road may be required to service the development, and that
these needs will be implemented at the time of construction plan approvals before Final Plat time.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The Preliminary Plat should show all environmentally delineated areas within Preservation Easements. Further, all wetlands shall be in outlots and those wetlands
unable to be put into outlots shall show innovative ways of further protecting them (Fencing installed by developer around the wetlands that is maintained by homeowner or other methods).
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That DNR concurrence on the delineation of all wetlands and navigable waterways within the platted area must be the delivered to the Planning Department before
approvals of the Preliminary Plat.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the developer have discussions with the parcel owner to the southwest of the proposal to determine the appropriate street stub location as this parcel
also is slated for single-family residential use in the future and would otherwise have limited access.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The Park and Conservation Boards will review the proposal at the time of Preliminary Plat to determine dedication fee needs and preservation plan and easement
needs.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the northern cul-de-sac should find ways to reduce the length to conforming with the City’s Land Division Ordinance length of 1320 feet. Further, the
overall subdivision should look for an innovative way to have full connectivity throughout the development (A wetland crossing through he WDNR should be pursued to accomplish this).
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That If a wetland crossing is not given by the DNR for a roadway to connect the internal streets of the subdivision, a trail should be worked into the plans.
The trail would connect the northern and southern areas of the subdivision and would promote walk ability internally in the development while also allowing residents easier access
throughout the development over to the high school property.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, All environmental will need to be delineated before Preliminary Plat time including high water marks of navigable streams, any wetlands, floodplains, and forested
areas.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, A small portion of the property is not within the current sewer service area and the sewer service area must be amended and fully approved before the plat
receives final approvals.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The proposed land division is to be named Lakeview Estates and an alternative name will be required that doesn’t have “Lake” in the name and that does not
mimic any existing subdivision names in the City.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That this approval is granted in concept only and final action is only an indication of the current intent of the Plan Commission; Final submittals are subject
to future review and consideration by the Plan Commission, municipal committees of jurisdiction, and other agencies, and approval of final plans is not guaranteed by this action of
the Plan Commission.
