MILWAUKEE STREET, ANDY WEBER, APPLICANT. Andy Weber reviewed plans for a detached garage. The garage would be built closer to both the street and side lot line than allowed by code. The location would be more compatible with the existing building setbacks and sideyards. In addition, in order to match the roof pitch of his house, the garage height would need to be increased from 15’ to approximately 20’.

Dennis Reilly reviewed plans for the former Lighthouse Florist building. The building was last remodeled in the 1950’s when most of the architectural detailing was removed and he now proposes to replace much of it. The Board was supportive of the proposed changes, however, several members suggested further changes to the windows and to the area above the windows. Those changes included adding window mulls; raising the dentil above the window and adding fascia for future siding; and finally adding some interior window details. Mr. Reilly agreed with the changes and would have revised drawings to be presented to the Plan Commission. A motion was made by Muller, seconded by Vanden Noven to recommend approval of the façade improvements as submitted as well as the added suggestions, which the applicant agreed to. All voting aye, the motion carried. 5. REVIEW AND RECOMMEND BUILDING, SITE, AND OPERATIONAL PLAN TO
CO-LOCATE TELECOMMUNICATIONS UNIT ON AN EXISTING TOWER AT 700 SUNSET ROAD,
NEXTEL, APPLICANT. A Nextel representative reviewed plans to add a
cellular unit to the tower recently erected by We Energies at their
service facility near the industrial park. The unit would be located
approximately 160’ above the ground. A pre-cast shelter would be erected
on the ground within the footprint of the tower. Due to its location the
Board felt that no further screening was required. 6. REVIEW AND RECOMMEND CERTIFIED SURVEY MAP; GENERAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN; CONDOMINIUM PLAT; AND BUSINESS, SITE, AND OPERATIONAL PLAN FOR WOODRIDGE CONDOMINIUMS, PASCO, LLC, APPLICANT. Representatives of PASCO reviewed plans for the proposed Woodridge Condominiums. A CSM was discussed and it was noted that lot 1 would be residential condos and lot 2 would be future commercial. Land was shown as dedication for E. Sauk Rd. and a future Cardinal Drive. A motion was made by Vanden Noven, seconded by Mitchell to recommend approval of the CSM as submitted. All voting aye, motion carried. The rezoning was discussed. An OPD was being proposed with base districts of RS-5 for the single family and RM-2 for the two- and four-family condos. A motion was made by Vanden Noven, seconded by Muller to recommend approval of the OPD rezoning and General Development Plan as submitted. All voting aye, the motion carried. The condo plat and business, site, and operational plan were discussed together. Three separate associations would be created along with a master association. The condo documents would be submitted at a later date. There was much discussion regarding the landscaping and building facades. The Board found the front building facades to be acceptable, however, the Board wanted to see the views of the other three elevations (of each model). In addition, the Board wanted to see more detailed landscape plans for each building pad as well as the road islands. The adding of more street trees at a 35’ interval was also discussed. A motion was made by Muller, seconded by Voeller to recommend approval of the condominium plat, contingent upon receipt of the condo documents. All voting aye, the motion carried. A motion was made by Vanden Noven, seconded by Muller to recommend approval of the BSOP subject to adding additional street trees; showing more details of the landscaping plans in the street islands and building pads; providing for review and approval of all building elevations; and approval of a storm water management plan. All voting aye, the motion carried. 7. ANY OTHER BUSINESS THAT MAY LEGALLY COME BEFORE THIS BOARD. None. 8. ADJOURNMENT. A motion was made by Wiese, seconded by Voeller to adjourn. All voting aye, the motion carried. The meeting adjourned at 5:20 p.m. Lower Level Conference Room, City Hall PRESENT: Dennis Weise, Mike Muller, Robert Vanden Noven, Chief Mark Mitchell, and Randy Tetzlaff. 1. ROLL CALL. Dennis Weise called the meeting to order at 3:05 p.m. and noted that a quorum was present. 2. PUBLIC APPEARANCES. None. 3. REVIEW AND RECOMMEND GENERAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR MARINERS POINT, LAKESIDE DESIGN, APPLICANT. Dennis Reilly reviewed in more detail his plans to develop the area just north of the Light Station. He reviewed the proposed boundaries and noted that Ms. Culligan still has not yet decided on whether to become a party to the project. He discussed further the setbacks and off-sets, and the proposed outlot with the detached garages. The Board was impressed with the architectural character of the garages, which reduce their mass. Concerns were expressed about the close proximity of the garages to Ms. Culligan’s property and the Light Station. A motion was made by Wiese, seconded by Muller to recommend approval of the GDP as presented with the following contingencies: if Ms. Culligan does not become a part of the project, garage shall be moved to 6’ from the lot line; garage shall be moved 6’ from the lot line adjacent to Light Station; and the plan shall be subject and reviewed by the City Engineer for storm water. All voting aye, motion carried. 4. REVIEW AND RECOMMEND PRELIMINARY PLAT, B & N DEVELOPMENT, APPLICANT. Representatives of B & N Development presented a plat for Greystone. It was noted that the plat conforms to the approved concept plan, except, that a detention pond has been added to the southwest corner of the site. A total of 3 lots were lost as a result of the redesign. A gas easement is shown, however, the gas main will be relocated once the plat has been approved. Concern was expressed that some of the side-by-side lots may be too small to accommodate at least one side-loaded garage. All but 3 lots for the side-by-sides are corner lots, which would accommodate for one garage to face each street. The interior lots should be large enough. The developer will have restrictive covenants in-place to ensure that as many lots as possible will not have "snout homes" or ones with protruding garages. The Board agreed that such language should be incorporated into the developer’s agreement. Street names were discussed and the developer agreed to work with the City Engineer to find other names. Both Greystone and Willow will remain. A revised plat showing phasing and a boulevard in Greystone will be presented to the Plan Commission. A motion was made by Vanden Noven, seconded by Wiese to approve the preliminary plat for Greystone. All voting aye, motion carried. 5. ELECTION OF BOARD CHAIRMAN. Since the zoning ordinance was recently amended, the Board must now elect a chairman. A motion was made by Mitchell, seconded by Muller to nominate Vanden Noven as chaiman. There were no further nominations made. All voting aye except Wiese who abstained, motion carried. 6. ANY OTHER BUSINESS THAT MAY LEGALLY COME BEFORE THIS BOARD. None. 7. ADJOURNMENT.

WISCONSIN AVENUE, DREWS TRUE VALUE HARDWARE, APPLICANT. Paul Drews presented the same plan that was approved last year for a temporary greenhouse. It was noted that the greenhouse was constructed as approved and there were no issues or concerns with it. The Board felt that it was not necessary for the applicant to come back for approval each year. A motion was made by Weise, seconded by Vanden Noven, to approval the site plan as presented; further that the approval be made continuous each year as long as the use and location do not change. All voting aye, motion carried. 4. REVIEW AND RECOMMEND BUISNESS, SITE, AND OPERATIONAL PLAN FOR THE TEMPORARY OFF-PREMISE STORAGE OF PIPELINE EQUIPMENT, WISCONSIN GAS COMPANY, APPLICANT. Tabled at the request of the applicant. 5. REVIEW AND RECOMMEND BUISNESS, SITE, AND OPERATIONAL PLAN FOR CREATING NEW LUXURY GUEST SUITES, 101 E. MAIN STREET, JOSEPH ZANKEL, APPLICANT. Joe and Sue Zankel noted that despite a decision by the Police and Fire Commission to require sprinklers at the Port Hotel, they have been advised to present their plans anyway. Plans call for renovating the upper two floors; three new units of the second floor along with office and employee quarters; and seven units on the third floor. The target market is both business travelers and tourists. Each unit would be luxuriously appointed and wired for Internet, etc., and breakfasts would be served to the guests in their rooms. Guest parking would be on the property. The business would be renamed and be known as the Port Hotel, Restaurant and Inn. There was discussion regarding the fire protection measure proposed. Board members expressed disappointment and disagreement with the Police and Fire Commission’s decision. Staff indicated that they would be looking at ways to make the project move forward.
