THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, That the Plan Commission approves of an amended Building,

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The colors of the overhead and pedestrian doors must match the
main gray color of the building and planning staff must approve any other colors.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That there needs to be two rows of horizontal windows added to
the side overhead door.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the engineer/surveyor for this project will need to work with
Waukesha County to get an exact location and width of the newly proposed right-of-way and at
the time of permitting we will need to see an updated site plan/survey that shows the exact new
right-of-way location, right-of-way width, and the 40-foot required setback.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That a landscape plan for the entire site must be approved by the
City Forester before building permits can be issued.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That all engineering related plans including the grading, sewer,
water, and stormwater plans are subject to City Engineer approval before the issuance of any
building permits.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That per Engineering comments, no drainage is allowed directly
through the gravel area and the drainage from the parking/driving area needs to drain off the
south end of the parking lot to prevent erosion of the gravel surface.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That all of the parking stalls must be 10’ x 20’ in size and this
change must be made to the site plan before building permits can be issued.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That curbing needs to be added to the entire site (all paved areas)
and revised plans showing this must be submitted before building permits can be issued.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That if future stalls are proposed in this area, staff suggests that
efforts be made to try to keep these stalls perpendicular to the main drive aisle, not parallel.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, Any proposed signage will require formal permits from the
Planning and Building Divisions.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That any lighting will need formal approvals from the Community
Development Department and the submittal will need to include fixture and pole details,
fixture/pole locations, and a photometric plan.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the poles and fixtures cannot exceed 15 feet above grade
and the concrete bases for the poles cannot exceed 6-inches in height above grade.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The CUG allowed some very limited car sales, but at this time the
plan does not show an area for this to occur; as such, no car sales are allowed at this time and if
car sales are going to possibly occur in the future, further City approvals will be required.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the air handler unit (at least the exposed portion) should be
painted to match the main color of the building.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That details of the enclosure’s materials and design will need to
be provided before the building permit can be issued.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That all roof top and ground mechanicals (including HVAC
devices, electrical transformers, vents, etc.) shall be screened from view and should be approved
by the Planning Division.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That since the new development currently sits on three lots, all of
the lots need to be combined into one lot and said combination must be completed before
building permits can be issued.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the Fire Department has to formally review and approve the
plans before building permits can be issued.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That any bollards must be painted to match the colors of the
principal structure.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That no outdoor storage of any type is allowed on the site (other
than within the approved fenced area) including, but not limited to, dumpsters, pallets, supplies,
materials, and racking.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That all damaged/wrecked vehicles and all materials/parts must
be stored/parked within the building or within the fenced storage area.

Department and that all aspects of this plan shall be maintained in perpetuity unless otherwise
authorized by the Plan Commission.

resolution shall result in the imposition of fines of $100 per day, the initiation of legal action, or
