ITEM IIA: GENERAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN & SPECIFIC IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
APPROVAL FOR A PERSONAL STORAGE FACILITY FOR PROPERTIES (3
PARCELS) LOCATED AT THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF JACKSON
STREET AND W. FERNAU AVENUE
GENERAL INFORMATION
Applicants: Jared Van Lanen
Property Owner: JJG Wisconsin LLC
Action(s) Requested:
The applicant requests approval of a General Development Plan and Specific Implementation
Plan (GDP/SIP) to allow for a personal storage facility for 3 parcels (Parcel IDs 91519601801,
91519601802 and 91519601803) located at the northeast corner of Jackson Street and W. Fernau
Avenue.
Applicable Ordinance Provisions:
Planned Development standards are found in Section 30-387 of the Zoning Ordinance.
Property Location and Type:
The subject area consists of 3 parcels of 28,000 sq. ft., 49,500 sq. ft. and 102,300 sq. ft. (0.64 acres,
1.14 acres and 2.35 acres, respectively) that were previously used for residential purposes. The
parcels are located along the Jackson Street corridor on the northeast corner of Jackson Street
and W. Fernau Avenue. One of the parcels has a deteriorating single family home according to
the applicant. The applicant's plans include demolition of this home. The surrounding area
consists of mixed residential, commercial and industrial uses. The subject parcels are zoned
Business Park with a Planned Development Overlay (BP-PD) and the 2040 Comprehensive
Land Use Plan recommends Industrial land use for the subject property and surrounding
properties to the north and east and Mixed Use to the west and south.
The applicant came before the Plan Commission at workshops that were held at the December
3rd, 2019 and January 21st, 2020 Plan Commission meetings. At the workshops, the applicant
explained his overall plans for the subject parcels. Staff had further discussions with the
applicant and explained that a zone change for the subject parcels was the first step in the
redevelopment process. The Plan Commission and Common Council approved a zone change
to allow a Planned Development overlay for the three subject parcels at the May 19th, 2020 and
June 9th, 2020 meeting respectively. The applicant has since filed for a General Development
Plan and Specific Implementation Plan (GDP/SIP) to allow a personal storage facility on the
three subject parcels.

ANALYSIS
r
The subject site consists of 3 contiguous parcels on the northeast corner of Jackson Street and W.
Fernau Avenue. The corner parcel has frontage along Jackson Street and W. Fernau Avenue, while
the parcel immediately east has frontage along W. Fernau Avenue. The parcel to the north has
frontage along Jackson Street. All 3 parcels are currently zoned BP-PD after a recent zone change.
ITEM HA — GDP/SIP Jackson and W. Fernau Personal Storage 2
Paqe 2
Now that the zone change has occurred, the applicant plans to combine the three parcels into a
single parcel and redevelop the site as a personal storage facility. The applicant requests Plan
Commission and Common Council review and approve of a General Development Plan and
Specific Implementation Plan.
Use
The applicant is proposing five new buildings on the subject site. The two-story westernmost
building is planned for the corner of Jackson Street and W. Fernau Avenue and would have a
footprint of approximately 24,000 sq. ft. This building would include offices, a call center,
climate controlled storage units, a restroom, an elevator, heating and cooling. This building
would have frontage on Jackson Street and W. Fernau Avenue and be the most prominent of
the five buildings. The four buildings to the east are single story personal storage facilities.
Three of these are approximately 9,120 sq. ft. and the easternmost building is 8,800 sq. ft. in
area.
The subject parcels are zoned BP-PD and the personal storage facility land use is not a
permitted land use on a BP -zoned parcel, a Base Standard Modification (BSM) is required to
allow the proposed use.

The parking lot provided on the site plan provides for 12 parking spaces just east of Building A
and these spaces would accommodate the four staff members that would work on -site. These
spaces would also serve customers visiting Building A. Access drives would serve the four
personal storage buildings and run between all four buildings.
The applicant believes that the single access drive and 12 parking spaces will serve the needs of
the development. The 12 parking spaces significantly exceed the 4 spaces required based on the
largest employee shift on -site. However, in situations where less than 25 parking spaces are
required, the parking maximums and Conditional Use Permit requirement do not apply.
Therefore, the 12 proposed parking spaces would be permitted in this case.
The total proposed impervious surface area for the site is 67.53% of the lot area. The BP district
allows a maximum impervious coverage of 70% of the lot area. The plan as proposed appears
to meet the impervious surface maximum allowed under BP zoning.

Storm water management plans have been provided and are being reviewed by the Department
of Public Works. The applicant has been in discussion with the Department of Public Works
regarding storm water management for the area. The Department of Public Works will require
finalized storm water management plans for submission and approval as part of the Site Plan
Review processes.

Building Foundation
The landscape plan meets the total point requirement for the building foundation. The
landscaping ordinance also specifies that 25% of the required must be on the side facing the
public street and 50% of the required points must be located along the main entrance side of the
building or in this case the south facade of Building A. Of the building foundation landscaping,
618.3 points are proposed for street facing facades. The landscaping therefore exceeds the
ordinance requirement for street facing facades. For the main entrance side, 274 points are
provided. This is short of the 507.5 points required for the side with the main entrance. The
proposal is for a personal storage facility with multiple buildings and hence a large amount of
building foundation footage. The access doors for the personal storage buildings preclude the
installation of building foundation landscaping along a significant portion of the lengths of
these buildings. Staff is of the opinion that the applicant could attain the required landscaping
points along the south side of Building A (near the main entrance) by choosing different plant
species that yield higher point totals and by widening the planting beds to accommodate them.
For example, the applicant could include arborvitae along the south facade of Building A to
meet the requirement. Staff would not support a BSM for a deficiency in points along the main
entrance side.
Paved Area
The proposal meets the paved area requirement of 50 landscaping points per 10 parking stalls
or 10,000 sq. ft. of paved area. The code states that 30% of required points shall be devoted to
tall trees and 40% to shrubs. The proposal meets both of these requirements.
Landscape planter islands are required at the ends of all parking rows, driveway entrances and
intermediate locations such that there is a maximum of 180 feet (20 parking stalls) between
islands and each island shall include a tall deciduous/shade tree. The landscape plan shows a
distance in excess of 180 feet along the east facade of Building A where pavement exists without
planter islands. Staff would not support a BSM to permit this as it appears that the applicant
has room to accommodate a planter island which would meet the code requirement.
Street Frontage
Code requires 100 landscape points per 100 feet of street frontage. The landscaping ordinance
also specifies that 50% of the required points must be devoted to medium trees. The street
frontage landscaping proposed consists entirely of trees and the point totals meet the point
requirements.
Yards
Code requires 20 landscaping points per 1,000 sq. ft. of gross floor area proposed for the site.
The applicant provides 1,480.2 yard landscaping points which would exceed this requirement.
Many of the yard landscaping points are derived from the arborvitae proposed for the
bufferyard area along the single family property to the north. The points proposed greatly
exceed the bufferyard requirement, so staff counted a number of them along with the proposed
bioswale on the east side of the site towards the yard landscaping requirement.
ITEM HA — GDP/SIP Jackson and W. Fernau Personal Storage

Buff eryard
The subject site is adjacent to a single-family property to the north that runs approximately 260
feet along the north property line. The remaining 360 feet of property line is shared with a
Suburban Mixed -Used (SMU) zoned institutional property. Ordinance requires a 0.4 opacity
level for the bufferyard along the single family property. The applicant proposes a row of 46
arborvitae along the length of the single family property and meets the code required 53 points
per 100 linear feet for a 10 foot wide bufferyard. The width of the proposed bufferyard on the
north property line is 18 feet. However, ordinance requires a 6' tall solid fence for 0.4 opacity
bufferyards less than 20 feet wide. The applicant would have to install the fencing or request a
BSM to allow the landscaping and current bufferyard width of 18 feet without the 6' fencing.
Staff would recommend requiring that the applicant install a 6' solid fence between Building A
and the proposed arborvitae landscaping. For the SMU-zoned property abutting the remaining
360 linear feet along the north property line, a 0.1 opacity level is required. The applicant
proposes a 10' green area and 6' tall slatted chain link fence along the SMU-zoned property.
The 10' green area and 6' solid fence would meet a 0.2 opacity requirement and exceeds the 0.1
standard prescribed by code.
The above photograph shows what the applicant is proposing far the bufferyard fencing.
Signage
The applicant initially submitted a sign package including a freestanding monument sign and
on -building wall signage for Building A on the Jackson Street facade. The applicant later
proposed wall signage for the south elevation of Building A also. Staff verified that the on -
building wall signage on the west and south facades meets code based on the facades' linear
footages. The applicant initially proposed a monument sign along Jackson Street but has
removed the sign in his conversations with staff. Staff does not have concerns with the
proposed signage.

The applicant proposes a mixture of on -building wall packs and freestanding light fixtures for
the site. The applicant's lighting consultant provided a photometric plan. The provided plan
does not include enough information to serve as a useful means of verifying code compliance.
Staff has repeatedly informed the consultant that the plan must include the photometric
information superimposed on the site plan. The provided plan does not include all lighting
values along what appears to be the north property line and no buildings, parking areas or
access drives are displayed. Staff has informed the consultant that the plan will have to show
lighting levels in relation to buildings, parking areas and access drives. If the GDP/SIP are
approved, staff will require a code compliant photometric plan showing all lighting values as
part of the Site Plan Review process. Based on the incomplete plan provided, light levels not far
from the north property line appear to greatly exceed the 0.5 footcandle maximum light
trespass permitted along the property line. Staff would not support a BSM for increased light
trespass along the north property line as there is a single family residence along that lot line and
the increased levels of light trespass could have a detrimental impact on that single family
property. The 24 foot mounting height of the proposed freestanding light fixtures meets the
code maximum of 25 feet for a BP -zoned parcel. The locations of the freestanding fixtures meet
the required setbacks based on the applicant's latest submission. Staff would require a code -
compliant photometric plan as part of the Site Plan Review process.

Building Facades
Commercial building design standards require facades to consist of at least 50% Class I
materials. The standards prohibit the use of Class IV materials on commercial facades. Staff
has discussed the proposed elevations with the applicant and explained that in exchange for
permitting the land use (a personal storage facility on a BP -zoned parcel), the commercial
design standards would apply for Building A. The applicant has requested a BSM to permit the
use of Class IV materials (ribbed steel paneling) on the east elevation.

Staff is not supportive of the requested BSM to permit the use of Class IV materials unless the
applicant greatly enhances the building foundation landscaping along the east fagade of
Building A. The personal storage facility is not a permitted land use on a BP -zoned parcel and
the property is located along Jackson Street on a prominent corridor leading into the city. The
requirement that the project meet the commercial design standards is a means to justify the
BSM required for the land use. Currently, the east elevation does not meet code and the
applicant does not provide enough landscaping points to justify the requested BSM. Staff
discussed with the applicant the possibility of widening the planting areas adjacent to Building
A to accommodate more robust landscaping and additional point totals. The applicant stated
that this would interfere with the turning radii for some of the semi -truck traffic he anticipates
on -site.

The elevations for the four mini -warehousing buildings are shozvn above.
The mini -warehousing buildings located to the east of Building A would include steel paneling
and staff would support allowing these buildings to meet the Industrial Design Standards since
these buildings are located on the east side of the site and off of the main corridor. The
buildings have to include at least 15% Class I materials on their street facing facades. Currently
the buildings employ split face CMU which is not a Class I material.
Overall Site
The applicant is requesting the following BSMs.
• To permit the land use — a personal storage facility on a BP -zoned parcel
• To allow the use of Class IV materials on the east facade of Building A
Staff is of the opinion that the applicant must significantly increase the building foundation
landscaping beyond ordinance requirements along the south and east facades of Building A in
order to support granting a BSM to allow the proposed use and use of Class IV materials for the
east facade of Building A. If the applicant is willing to make the required modifications to the
proposal, staff does not have major concerns with the proposal. If the applicant is unwilling to
install the landscaping along the south and east facades of Building A, staff would recommend
denial of the GDP/SIP.
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

Corner of Jackson and Fernau Narrative:
Jared VanLanen is presenting to the City of Oshkosh the redevelopment of the Northeast corner of
Jackson St. and Fernau Ave. The use of this site will be for a premium self- storage facility,
encompassing temperature controlled storage and personal storage.
Currently, 3 lots exist. One of the three lots consists of a degraded residential structure, an ugly
outbuilding, and improper drainage. Part of the redevelopment process will be to remediate the old
garage and home. The 3 lots will become combined into a single tax parcel. Through the site design
process, the drainage issues will become resolved.
The property is surrounded to the east and to the south by Heavy Industrial Zoning. To the west, is
Town of Oshkosh, to the North, is Town of Oshkosh, and to the Northeast, is SMU (Suburban Mixed
Use). Our proposal to put a premium self -storage facility at this location presents itself incredibly well as
a buffer between the Heavy Industrial Zoning and the future land uses to the west.
A Jackson St. driveway and two Fernau Ave. driveways currently exist. For the safety of all, the plan is to
eliminate the Jackson St. driveway and one of the Fernau Ave. driveways. The driveway closest to
Jackson Street will be moved further to the east to allow clear access and visibility.
Through many modifications and communication with staff, we believe the aesthetics of the buildings,
most notably Building "A", to be at the highest standards to the industry and among the highest
standards in the Jackson Street corridor.
The site will consist of S buildings in total. The elevations of all the buildings are included with this
submittal. Building A, the furthest to the West, will be Fox Valley Storage's flagship building. It will hold
our new call center, with 3 full time employees and 2 part time employees. This building will be a 2
story building served with an elevator, restroom, heating, and cooling. With the exception of the
eastern (internal to the site) fagade, the building is nearly entirely brick, Split faced block, and glass. It
boasts an entry that is second to none. A Base Standard Modification may be needed for the East
(internal) side of this Building A.
Building B, C, D, and E will each serve the personal and business storage needs of the community. They
will conform to all Base Standards required of them along the Fernau Street frontage.
We are supplying ample parking. Chapter 30.81(C) requires that one space be provided for each
employee on the largest work shift. Given that our largest work shift would be 4 employees, the parking
as designed (12 hard spaces) is triple what code requires. This may help offset a Base Standard
Modification if needed.
The photometric plan which has been supplied is designed to meet code. We understand that a slightly
different version of the plan has been requested. We are attempting to get an accepted version of this
plan to staff yet this week. There are (7) 24' pole lights on the site which will provide site lighting for the
eastern portion of the site. Building A will have a combination of wall packs, wall wash, and sign lighting.
Landscaping is designed to meet the point total as defined in code. The northerly property line is
composed of multiple land use classifications (Township, residential and Suburban Mixed Use). We've

increased our plant total along the westerly portion (where the Township single family residence is) of
the site. We're proposing a full height arborvitae wall and have moved Building A further off the lot line
per staff's recommendation to offset the Base Standard Modification.

Addendum A
Corner of Jackson and Fernau Narrative Additional Items:
A BSM (Base Standard Modification) is being requested to allow a personal self storage facility on the
property currently zoned BP -PD (Business Park with a Planned Development Overlay). In May, we
proposed a zoning change to BP-PD to give staff the ability to allow this BSM for the use which we are
proposing. Through City Workshops and staff's review we believe we have a beautiful planset for which
the City of Oshkosh will be able to permit this use.
A BSM (Base Standard Modification) is being requested for the east sidewall of Building A. The materials
proposed to be used on this sidewall are Class IV materials. They are internal to the site and will be
covered up mostly by foundation landscaping. This sidewall will not be visible from Jackson Street. It is
important to us incorporate some of the same materials/colors across all the buildings on site to portray
a continuum of the facility (and not separate business entities). I would be agreeable to a condition that
no future free standing sign would be allowed on the Jackson Street frontage in return for allowing this
BSM.
An Access Control Variance is being requested. The 7S' minimum which is required by code is requested
to be at 30' as proposed on our plans. The buildings, parking, and paved areas are set back far enough
off of Fernau Ave, that it will not impede traffic flow. It also will provide enough visual site path to
alleviate any safety concerns. The "throat" of the driveway will be set at the 30' length.

Addendum B
Corner of Jackson and Fernau Narrative Additional Item:
The BSM (Base Standard Modification) for Building A is being revised to the attention of the East
sidewall only. The remaining 3 facades are now within code compliance of the Class I material
requirements. In addition, the East sidewall is now being revised to include the use of 8% Glazing. In
addition, in helping to offset this BSM request, our Yard landscaping proposal is inclusive of 414 excess
points or 34% more than the 1,204 points required per code.
