1. Review Concept Plan for Boat & Trailer Sales and Storage Facility and Possible Zoning Text Amendment Related Thereto at a 3.4 Acre Lot Along Addison Road About 300 Ft. North of Arthur Road (Property Owner Anthony Lambo; Keith’s Marina – Steve Keith).

   Planner Marchek discussed the history of this lot and stated this was being brought before the Commission in concept form first to determine if any further plans should be developed. He turned the discussion over to the property owner, Anthony Lambo and the business owner, Steve Keith.

   Steve Keith appeared before the Commission and stated that, contrary to the wording of this item on the agenda, this project was not associated with the Keith’s Marina business. He stated there would be no sales or active business operations taking place at this site, and the intention was to obtain approval for a storage building only. Commission members asked about specifications for this building and the concept plan was reviewed.

   Discussion was held on the need to maintain a certain quality of building and commercial enterprise in the area due to its high visibility along the highway.

   Motion Lindquist/Mueller to deny the concept plan as presented; carried.

2. Site and Architectural Plan for a 1,792 Sq. Ft. Field Sports Equipment Accessory Building Located at the Slinger High School Athletic Field

   (Dave Gutbrod, Slinger Iron & Steel Corp.)

   Planner Marchek reviewed the plan for this project and stated the final location of the facility was still to be determined pending a review of site drainage patterns.

   Dave Gutbrod from Slinger Iron & Steel appeared before the Commission and stated the drainage review was nearly complete and the final location could be provided soon.

   Motion Lindquist/Mueller to approve the Site and Architectural Plan for a Sports Equipment Accessory Building at the Slinger High School athletic field provided the final location of the facility is not in conflict with site drainage patterns and is field-reviewed by the Village Engineer and Building Inspector prior to construction; carried.

3. Condominium Plat for Second Addendum to Arbor Pointe Condominiums Amending the Location of Certain Building Locations Within the Plat (Verrada Development, LLC).

   Ann Cook from MSA appeared before the Commission to explain the changes that had been made to the condominium plat previously approved by the Commission. She noted that one of the buildings had been moved from its original location while others had been expanded within their original footprint.

   Planner Marchek asked the Commission to consider adding a condition to approval that would require a review of all infrastructure requirements in accordance with the Development Agreement. Discussion was held on whether such a condition was necessary since the requirements were already in the agreement. Planner Marchek explained this request for approval presented an opportunity for staff to review and enforce compliance with those requirements.

   Motion Wiedmeyer/Foerster to recommend approval to the Village Board of the Condominium Plat for the Second Addendum to Arbor Pointe Condominiums amending the location of certain buildings within the plat; carried.

4. Request for an Exemption From the Minimum 35 Acre Lot Area Requirement Related to an Extraterritorial CSM in the Town of Polk Creating 2 Lots, Each Less Than 35 Acres in Size, and 1 Outlot, All With Access From White Hawk Trail in the Northwest of Section 9 (Property Owner George D. Shanks, Jr.)

   Planner Marchek informed the Commission this item was similar to the extraterritorial CSM request discussed earlier, an exemption would have to be granted before the CSM could be approved. He also provided the Commission with copies of an e-mail received from the Town of Polk that outlined the Town’s conditions of approval.

   Rick Simon, representing property owner George D Shanks, Jr, appeared before the Commission to explain the conditions placed on the property. He stated that at this time, the lot was being divided into two lots only, however the Town of Polk had required that a potential third lot be shown to indicate a possible future division. Mr. Simon also stated the outlot was needed to show the position of a cul-de-sac that would be required if the third lot is ever created.

   Motion Wiedmeyer/Foerster to grant an exemption to the minimum lot size of 35 acres in extraterritorial areas and recommend approval to the Village Board of the extraterritorial Certified Survey Map creating 2 lots and 1 outlot with access from White Hawk Trail in the Northwest ¼ of Section 9 in the Town of Polk; carried.

5. Request to Vacate a Portion of Right-of-Way of the Turn-Around of Cedar Bluffs Way, and Acceptance of Quit Claim Deed for Additional Right-of-Way to Match Constructed Location of Turn-Around. (Northern States Development/MSA).

   Planner Marchek informed the Commission that Village Engineer Haggerty and Craig Johnson, representing the property owner Northern States Development, were present to address any questions there might be regarding this item. Planner Marchek stated this was the first step in a two-step process. He explained that first, the right of way areas for Cedar Bluffs Way will have to be amended to conform with the final configuration of the cul-de-sac, which was changed after the Department of Transportation had raised objections to the original design.

   Planner Marchek stated that after the right of way had been adjusted by a partial vacation and acceptance of a quit claim deed, the affected Certified Survey Maps would need to be amended and resubmitted for approval.

   Discussion was held on the probability of an extension to Cedar Bluffs Way that would connect the road to CTH C. Administrator/Clerk Murphy informed the Commission that the Department of Transportation had recently announced their decision to utilize roundabouts at the intersection of STH 60 and CTH C, and also in the intersection of CTH C and American Eagle Drive. Planner Marchek stated an extension of Cedar Bluffs Way would improve traffic flow in that area and provide greater access to adjoining lots.

   Craig Johnson asked if the second step of this process, which would be the reconfiguration of Certified Survey Maps, could be delayed until the Department of Transportation’s plans for the roundabouts were made available since any maps drawn up at this time would have to be adjusted again after the roadways were designed. Planner Marchek stated that the right of way designations could be corrected at this time and the CSM amendments postponed until a later date.

   Motion Wiedmeyer/Wolf to recommend approval to the Village Board of the request to vacate a portion of the right-of-way and accept a quite claim deed for additional right-of-way at the turn-around of Cedar Bluffs Way; carried.

6. Building Inspector’s Report.

   Building Inspector Frederickson informed the Commission there was no significant progress to report on the status of the property at 120 Kettle Moraine Drive S. He stated there were still parties interested in purchasing the property and he still believed that progress would be made eventually.

   Building Inspector Frederickson also stated that new construction within the Village was already at a fairly high volume for the year.

   Administrator/Clerk Murphy stated she wished to expand on the Building Inspector’s report to review a matter previously decided on by the Planning Commission. She read an excerpt from the March 14, 2007 meeting minutes that discussed the decision made concerning an expansion requested for a building owned by E.H. Wolf & Sons, and in particular the fact that the relocation of the water main in that area would be the responsibility of the property owner. Administrator/Clerk Murphy stated that new factors had developed that may require further consideration of this issue.

   Administrator/Clerk Murphy informed the Commission there could be no type of action taken this evening due to the fact that these developments were very recent and had been presented after this meeting’s agenda had been posted and published. She stated the issue may need to be addressed prior to the next scheduled meeting and she wished to bring this to the Commission’s attention at this time.

   Village Engineer Haggerty and property owner Craig Wolf were present and provided the Commission with some very preliminary information regarding this matter. Due to the fact that the subject had not been included on the meeting agenda, the Commission directed staff to make arrangements for a special Planning Commission meeting to be scheduled so the matter could be reviewed and discussed in detail.

   At this time, the meeting returned to the agenda item suspended earlier.

7. Completion of the Smart Growth Comprehensive Plan Report Including Final Review of Land Use Plan Map, North By-Pass Road Alignment (per SEWRPC), Proposal to Designate Blank Property for Parkland Use, and Resolution Recommending Adoption of the Plan.
