The applicant also requests approval of a General Development Plan and Specific Implementation Plan to establish a light manufacturing, retail and educational facility at 717 Oregon Street. Applicable Ordinance Provisions: The Zoning Ordinance does not establish criteria relative to appropriateness of changing zoning from one classification to another but relies on the Comprehensive Plan and good planning principles. Planned Development standards are found in Section 30-387 of the Zoning Ordinance. Property Location and Background Information: The subject area consists of one 5,850 sq. ft. parcel located at the northwest corner of Oregon Street and W. 8a,Avenue. The subject site consists of a 5,760 sq. ft.building formerly used as Kossel's appliance store.The surrounding area consists primarily of commercial and mixed uses along with residential uses to the west. The 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan recommends Center City use for the subject area.

East Commercial/Mixed Use CMU West Two family residential CMU Paqe 1 Comprehensive Plan Land Use Recommendation Land Use 2040 Land Use Recommendation Center City ANALYSIS Zone Chan&e The applicant is requesting a zone change to add a Planned Development Overlay to the existing Central Mixed Use district(CMU)base zoning to allow for the proposed land use, which is not specifically included in the zoning ordinance. A Base Standard Modification (BSM) is required to allow a light manufacturing/educational/retail use as light manufacturing and educational uses are not permitted in the CMU district. Staff is supportive of adding the Planned Development Overlay for this purpose as the intent is to accommodate a unique land use (anti-venom production and educational display). Use/Site Design The applicant is proposing to use the existing building for venom production (40% of building area), laboratory processing(10%) and educational displays (50%). According to the applicant, the venom from snakes and scorpions will be extracted to be used for pharma research, antivenin, and evolutionary research. The facility will also be used for school field trips and will be open to the public and include minimal retail activities. The applicant is not proposing any changes to the exterior of the site. The facility will have four staff members who will park on 8t"Avenue and school groups will be dropped off in buses which will be parked off-site. Staff does not have concerns with parking as off-street parking requirements are exempt in the CMU district. A neighborhood meeting was held at the site on September 25th to inform neighboring property owners of the proposed use. The neighbors who attended the meeting were in favor of the proposal. Staff is supportive of a BSM to allow the proposed use as it should not be detrimental to the surrounding area. Signage The applicant plans to replace the sign faces on the existing"Kossel's" on-building sign. No new signage is being proposed. Landscaping No change to the existing landscaping is being proposed with this request. ITEM It. Rezone,GDP&SIP 717 Oregon SG 2 Paqe 2 Storm Water Management/Utilities No changes to existing storm water management is being proposed with this request. Site Lighting No changes to existing site lighting is being proposed with this request. Building Facades No changes to the existing building facades is being proposed with this request. FINDINGS/RECOMMENDATION/CONDITIONS In its review and recommendation to the Common Council on an application for a Planned Development district, staff recommends the Plan Commission make the following findings based on the criteria established by Chapter 30-387(C)(6): (a) The proposed Planned Development project is consistent with the overall purpose and intent of this Chapter. (b) The proposed Planned Development project is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan and other area plans. (It is the responsibility of the City to determine such consistency.) (c) The proposed Planned Development project would maintain the desired relationships between land uses, land use densities and intensities, and land use impacts in the environs of the subject site. (d) Adequate public infrastructure is or will be available to accommodate the range of uses being proposed for the Planned Development project, including but not limited to public sewer and water and public roads. (e) The proposed Planned Development project will incorporate appropriate and adequate buffers and transitions between areas of different land uses and development densities/intensities. (f) The proposed Planned Development project design does not detract from areas of natural beauty surrounding the site. (g) The proposed architecture and character of the proposed Planned Development project is compatible with adjacent/nearby development. (h) The proposed Planned Development project will positively contribute to and not detract from the physical appearance and functional arrangement of development in the area. (i) The proposed Planned Development project will produce significant benefits in terms of environmental design and significant alternative approaches to addressing development performance that relate to and more than compensate for any requested exceptions/base standard modifications variation of any standard or regulation of this Chapter. (j) For Planned Development projects that are proposed to be developed in phases, the applicant can provide a timeline for development and can demonstrate that the project would be successful even if all phases were not or could not be completed.

FEE IS NON-REFUNDABLE SUMMARY OF PROCESS The City of Oshkosh Plan Commission and Common Council act on all amendments to the Official Zoning Map. The petitioner or owner should be present at both the Plan Commission and Common Council meetings to discuss and answer questions regarding the request. The application package is reviewed by Planning Services staff to determine conformance with adopted city plans,zoning requirements and development standards.A staff recommendation is prepared for consideration by the Plan Commission and Common Council.The petitioner will be provided with a copy of the staff report and meeting notice several days prior to the Plan Commission meeting. The staff report and meeting notice will also be available on the City's website. No notice is sent to the petitioner or owner regarding the Common Council's consideration of the request. Petitioners and owners are encouraged to contact Planning Services staff to find out when the request will be sent to the Common Council for review. Neighborhood opinion is an important factor in the decision-making process.If the proposed development is expected to have significant impact on other properties,the petitioner may be required to conduct a neighborhood meeting to solicit public input prior to action by the Plan Commission and City Council.Planning Services staff is available to offer assistance in compiling a mailing list for the neighborhood meeting. If deemed appropriate,notification by mail informing the property owners within 100 feet of the subject property of the proposal may substitute for the public meeting. Please note that a meeting notice will be mailed to all abutting property owners regarding your request. Within 90 days of filing a complete application,Plan Commission shall hold a public hearing to consider the request.Within 60 days of the public hearing,the Plan Commission may make a written report to the Common Council with recommendations regarding the proposal.The Plan Commission's report is advisory only. The Common Council will make the final decision regarding all zone change requests. The Plan Commission may lay over requests to subsequent meetings if incomplete information is provided or additional questions or concerns are raised at the meeting. After the Plan Commission makes its recommendation,the request will be forwarded to the Common Council for consideration. This generally occurs three weeks after the Plan Commission meeting depending on the date the Council meeting is scheduled (the Council meets on the 2nd and 41h Tuesday of every month) and on the availability of a legal description for the zone change. Wisconsin State Statutes require a zone change to be published as Class II notice in the local newspaper,the City takes care of this publication requirement prior to the Council meeting. The Common Council may approve the Official Zoning Map amendment as originally proposed,may approve the proposed amendment with modifications,or may deny approval of the proposed amendment.If the Official Zoning Map amendment is approved,the Ordinance is published in the newspaper on the following Saturday and will be effective on Sunday. City administrative offices are notified of the effective date of the Ordinance and will make changes to the Official Zoning Map accordingly.
