NE ¼ OF SECTION 9 (JANESVILLE ROAD / TAX KEY NO. 2193.070)
WHEREAS, Plans were submitted in March 2015 by John Jewell to locate a parking lot on the
property located on the NW corner of Janesville Road and Lannon Drive (Tax Key No.
2193.070), and
WHEREAS, Said property is currently zoned DR-1, Downtown Revival District, and the use is
permitted subject to Plan Commission approval, and
WHEREAS, The former Shell Gas Station lot has been vacant as a result of the Janesville
Road reconstruction project, and
WHEREAS, Waukesha County required that the structures be removed on the property to
make way for the reconstruction, however, the private owner has retained the vacant leftover
remnant, and
WHEREAS, The portions of the property covered in asphalt are required due to a Wisconsin
Department of Natural Resources cap order since the parcel is largely contaminated, and
WHEREAS, The petitioner received temporary parking lot approval as per PC Resolution #004-
2015 and said resolution stated that permanent parking lot approval was required by Planning
Commission before August 31, 2015, and
WHEREAS, The petitioner is having parking issues at his new site across the street and sees
an opportunity to remediate/beautify the former Shell site while providing more parking options
for his tenants and patrons, and
WHEREAS, The proposed permanent plan looks to resurface the entire lot, add additional
asphalt areas, landscaping, and ultimately allow 19 parking stalls meeting City of Muskego
ordinances, and
WHEREAS, The new parking lot would be shared with the business to the north via an access
agreement, and
WHEREAS, The proposed improvements are only for the parcel that is under control by the
petitioner and the right-of-way areas would need to be remediated/beautified by the City of
Muskego, and
WHEREAS, The Council approved up to $20,000 to aid in right-of-way beautification
improvements and Muskego will embark on these improvements once Waukesha County
allows (currently the County has a court case to get thru first).
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, That the Plan Commission approves of a building, site and
operation plan amendment for a permanent parking lot submitted by John Jewell for the
property located at on the NW corner of Janesville Road and Lannon Drive (Tax Key No.
2193.070).
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the permanent parking lot improvements should be
complete by August 31, 2015 or new Plan Commission approvals may be required.

easements and agreements, before starting the improvements, between the petitioner and Tres
Locos to show that the access is in perpetuity.

Development Department before any installation.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the Planning Commission approves of a sign location for
Tres Locos in the southeast corner of the property and sign regulations for size can utilize the
Tres Locos frontage along with the petitioner’s frontage as well. Said sign would have to cease
upon the petitioner’s lot being developed or access agreements ceasing.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the city right-of-way improvements should receive Plan
Commission approval before beginning in the future.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That a copy of said plans be kept on file in the Building
Department and that all aspects of this plan shall be maintained in perpetuity unless otherwise
