THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, That the Plan Commission approves of a Building, Site and
Operation Plan and three lot Certified Survey Map from Keller Inc. for Starz Dance Academy
located along Racine Avenue (Tax Key No. 2180.994.002).
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the proposed plans must be reviewed by the Fire
Department as soon as possible and any changes they may require to the site plan, CSM, and/or
access easements must be made, including the possible widening/altering of driveways and/or
parking areas.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The eastern façade needs to be altered to be covered with
cement board lap siding, as is being proposed on the south elevation, to keep some consistency
on all facades of the building.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, Details must be provided before the issuance of building permits
showing the exact placement of any mechanicals (HVAC, transformers, etc.) and a plan on how
they will be screened from view.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, Curbing must be added to the south side of the Starz parking lot
(with a curb opening for drainage as needed).
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The west side of the parking lot can remain un -curbed since this
area is planned for future parking but once the parking lot is expanded the new parking area must
then be curbed to match the rest of the site.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, No outdoor storage or display will be allowed on site.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, A formal landscape plan must be provided as part of the Building
Permit review.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the landscape plan must include a berm and landscape
screening buffer, subject to staff approval at building permit time, at the northeast corner
of the building in order to screen the back (east) side of the structure from the entrance
drive.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the south lot line of Lot 3 shall have a landscape
screening buffer included in the staff approved landscape plan at building permit time.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, Any site/exterior building lighting must meet the Zoning Code’s
lighting requirements and lighting details and a photometric plan must be approved by the City
and details of such lighting must be provided as part of Building Permit review.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, All dumpsters/recycle bins must be located within the proposed
existing trash enclosure and said enclosure details must be submitted at the time of Building
Permit review.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, Any signage (temporary or permanent) will require separate
permits.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, Any bollards must be painted to match the color of the building.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, A Plat of Survey stamped by a Professional Land Surveyor
showing the proposed building location must be submitted as part of the Building Permit review.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, Since there was a former landfill on portions of this land, the DNR
will need to sign off on any construction of buildings and grading of the site before any work can
begin on the properties.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, Since there are residential properties to the south and southeast
of this proposed development, existing vegetation buffers need to remain along certain lot lines to
ensure screening and visual separation between the new developments and the surrounding
residential properties as follows:
20-foot buffer along the south side of Lot 3
60-foot buffer along the east side of Lot 3
20-foot buffer along the south side of Lot 1 (This buffer could be removed
dependent on the southern single family lot owner signing off that they are
OK with the easement and vegetation removal along this lot line)
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The above noted buffer areas should not be graded within and
should not have any vegetation removed within.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The emergency overflow for the stormwater pond cannot
discharge onto adjacent properties and the location/flow of said emergency overflow should be
directed to Hillendale Drive.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, A detailed phase plan needs to be submitted before the issuance
of Building Permits to show how and what grading and site development will occur at different
stages of the project.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, No Building Permits can be issued until the CSM is recorded.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That all CSM review technical corrections from the City will need
to be addressed before the Certified Survey Map can be signed and recorded.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That a digital file of this CSM shall be submitted to the City in
accordance with Common Council Ordinance No. 1118 and Resolution 196-2002.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, A copy of said plans must be kept on file and that all aspects of
this plan shall be maintained in perpetuity unless otherwise authorized by the Plan Commission.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, Failure to comply with the approval contained in this resolution
shall result in the imposition of fines of $100 per day, the initiation of legal action, or both.
