WHEREAS, Plans were submitted by AG Architecture to amend the PD-42 Zoning District for the Will

WHEREAS, The current version of the Planned Development zoning district (PD-42) for this development
was approved by Council Ordinance #1412 on December 12, 2017, and
WHEREAS, The original PD district approved a 50-unit apartment building (known as Phase 1), a 40-unit
apartment building (known as Phase 2), and clubhouse (known as Phase 3), as well as the continued
allowance of a 1.5 acre corner lot for future commercial uses, and
WHEREAS, The Plan Commission and Common Council allowed the number of units to be adjusted to
51 units and 39 units as a non-substantial change to the PD-42 Zoning District, and
WHEREAS, The newly proposed zoning amendment is to increase the number of allowed units in the
second building from 39 units to 45 units, and
WHEREAS, The proposed additional units are gained with minor building footprint adjustments and with
the switching of some interior open spaces and two-bedroom units to one-bedroom units, and
WHEREAS, The first building that is currently under construction was allowed a ten-foot setback waiver
(from 40’ to 30’) and this request would allow the second building to have the same 30-foot setback from
the Janesville Road right-of-way line, and
WHEREAS, A Public Hearing for the rezoning will be heard before the Common Council in April or May
2020, and
WHEREAS, The original Building, Site and Operation Plan (BSO) was approved via #P.C. 025-2018 on
April 9, 2018, and
WHEREAS, There are also some minor exterior elevation changes that are being proposed to further tie
the two buildings together architecturally and to accommodate the slight footprint change, and
WHEREAS, By adjusting the building footprint, three additional enclosed parking stalls will be added for a
total of 48 enclosed stalls for 45 units, and
WHEREAS, Twelve (12) additional outdoor parking stalls for residents and guests have been provided by
shifting the building to the thirty foot setback, and
WHEREAS, An additional amendment that is proposed for the development is the addition of a
community garden for the exclusive use of residents within the complex.
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, The Plan Commission approves the Building, Site and Operation Plan
amendment and the Plan Commission is recommending to the Common Council the zoning amendment
to the PD-42 District to allow the additional six (6) residential units for the second building (totaling 96
units for the overall development) for the Will Rose Apartment development located in the NE ¼ of
Section 10 (Janesville Road / Tax Key Nos. 2198.160.001, 2198.160.002, 2198.160.003 &
2198.160.004).
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, If any negative comments and/or concerns arise from that Public Hearing,
then this Resolution would come back before the Plan Commission for re-review before final Common
Council action.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, All previously noted architectural conditions from the past resolutions still
apply.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The community garden cannot be utilized as a commercial garden facility
and can only be used by residents of the apartment complex.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, Any fencing needed as part of the community garden will require a
separate Zoning Permit approval.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, All conditions of approval from the original BSO remain applicable for this
project.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That a copy of said plans be kept on file in the City and that all aspects of
this plan shall be maintained in perpetuity unless otherwise authorized by the Plan Commission.
