WHEREAS, The 2020 Comprehensive Plan designates this property for commercial uses and the
proposal is consistent with the plan, and
WHEREAS, The Certified Survey Map (CSM) creates a lot from the parcel of the existing parking
lot where the new structure would be constructed, and
WHEREAS, The proposal is to build a new restaurant with drive thru totaling about 1,835 square
feet for both the Dunkin’ and Baskin Robbins brands, and
WHEREAS, Hours of the business are proposed as 4:00 AM to 12:00 AM (midnight) daily, and
WHEREAS, The business will have a total of 10 full time employees and 5 part time employees
with no more than 6 employees at one given shift, and
WHEREAS, This property is governed by the General Design Guide, and
WHEREAS, The proposed building is clad with a mixture of fiber cement panels, fiber board lap
siding, brick veneer and metal trim, and
WHEREAS, The percentage of masonry on the building does not meet the 50% recommendation
as identified in the General Design Guide and the actual masonry percentages are as follows:
• East (Front) –0%
• West (Rear) – 59%
• North (Side) - 56%
• South (Side) – 44%
• Total average for the full building – 41%
WHEREAS, The roof will be flat with parapet walls providing breaks in the roofline, and
WHEREAS, Along the western side (rear) of the building there is a bump-out for a walk-in
cooler/freezer, and
WHEREAS, An accent wall is proposed on the elevations that will screen the height of the cooler,
but is centered in such a way that either end of the metal cooler will not be screened from view,
and
WHEREAS, The project proposing using orange bollard colors as the orange color is part of the
Dunkin’ branding found throughout the project, and
WHEREAS, A drive thru aisle is proposed for the new Dunkin’ where the entry is located near the
northeast corner of the building wrapping around the building and exiting into the access
easement area, and
WHEREAS, An outdoor seating area is located immediately north of the building with four tables
separated from the drive thru aisle with a fence, and
WHEREAS, There is no direct access to this property from a public right-of-way, but rather
access to the site is proposed via shared access, drainage and utility easement, and
WHEREAS, The Dunkin’ site is completely surrounded by existing parking spaces and drive
aisles used by patrons of the Muskego Centre, and
WHEREAS, The site plan currently shows 26 parking stalls specifically for Dunkin’, in addition to
two handicap accessible stalls, and
WHEREAS, Most of the stalls are identified as 9’ x 18’, which is the standard size with eight stalls
on the southern side of the property shown as 9’ wide but only 16’ +/- feet in depth, and
WHEREAS, All driveways appear to be at least 24 feet wide, which is required by code, and
WHEREAS, A brick dumpster enclosure is shown on the plans incorporated into the rear of the
building with colors to match the building with metal doors to screen the garbage canisters, and
WHEREAS, A landscape plan has been provided that shows various landscaping throughout the
site, and
WHEREAS, A photometric plan has been included along with specs of proposed lighting fixtures,
and
WHEREAS, The photometric plan indicates that the lighting will all be building mounted, soffit
mounted, and pole mounted, and
WHEREAS, The photometric plan shows the lighting levels exceeding the 0.5 foot-candles limit at
the property line near the drive thru, garbage enclosure and along the access easement east of
the building, and
WHEREAS, Dunkin’ is proposing both a Dunkin’ and Baskin Robbins wall signs on the all four
sides of the building along with a separate freestanding monument sign towards Racine Avenue,
and
WHEREAS, The development will be served by municipal sewer and water, and
WHEREAS, An engineering review will be conducted to ensure all MMSD/DNR requirements are
met.
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, That the Plan Commission approves of a 2-Lot Certified
Survey Map and a Building, Site and Operation Plan for Dunkin’ located in the Muskego Centre
along Racine Avenue (Tax Key No. 2172.970 / W189 S7749-97 Racine Avenue).
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, All technical corrections from the City will need to be addressed
before the Certified Survey Map can be signed and recorded.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The CSM must be modified to include frontage directly to/along
public right-of-way as the lot cannot “float” within another lot.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That CSM may need to include additional easements, including
possible additional cross access easements.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, Since there are not apparent wetlands in the general proximity of
Dunkin’ site, a wetland delineation is not needed for the entire site for the CSM at this time and a
note stating that the site has not been checked/delineated for wetlands will need to be placed on
the CSM.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The masonry/brick on the building must be extended beneath both
drive thru windows and wrap around the front of the building, at the same height, to tie the
elevations together and this will increase the masonry deficiencies on these elevations.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The front and back sides of the parapet walls must have the same
materials and design including colors, materials and depth.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The cooler/freezer at the rear of the building must be screened
with either a full accent wall or cladding on it to cover the metal walls of the cooler and said
required change must be approved by staff before building permits can be issued.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, A separate sign permit will be required before any signage
(temporary or permanent) can be installed and this includes any signage on the building or
freestanding.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The proposed monument sign must have a masonry base to
match the building.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, All parking stalls must be at least 9’ x 18’ in size and all drive
aisles must be at least 24’ wide.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, No outdoor storage or display of products, materials, pallets,
racking, etc. is allowed at any time on site.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, All lighting must be zero degree tilt and full cut-off and the
concrete bases for any pole lights cannot exceed 6 inches in height above grade.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The height of any light poles cannot exceed the greater of either
15 feet or the eave height of the building.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The site plan is subject to Fire Department approvals before
Building Permits can be issued and possible changes to the site plan may be required based
upon the final Fire Department review.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The final landscape plan must be submitted for formal review
before building permits can be issued and changes/additions to the plan may be required.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, Formal approvals from the Engineering Division will be required
before the issuance of any permits as it relates to overall site design.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That any bollards, railings, ladders, louvers, vents, etc. must be
painted to match the colors of the principal structure.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That any handicap signs be permanently mounted in the ground
or mounted to the building so they are not moveable.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That all roof top, wall mounted and ground mechanicals (including
HVAC devices, electrical transformers, etc.) must be screened from view and said screening
must be approved by the Planning Division before the issuance of building permits.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, Any landscape screening of the items noted above must be
coniferous type trees (arborvitae suggested) at a planting height of at least 6 feet.
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
authorized by the Plan Commission.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That failure to comply with the approval contained in this
resolution shall result in the imposition of fines per day, the initiation of legal action, or both.
