Home My WebLink AboutItem I PLAN COMMISSION STAFF REPORT JUNE 1, 2021 ITEM I: PUBLIC HEARING: OFFICIAL MAPPING OF MOCKINGBIRD WAY FROM ITS WESTERN TERMINUS WESTWARD TO THE EASTERN TERMINUS OF WINDSONG TERRACE GENERAL INFORMATION Applicant: City of Oshkosh Owner: Thomas N. Rusch and Jamie A. & Amie N. Schmude Action(s) Requested: The City of Oshkosh requests approval to officially map right-of-way connecting the western end of Mockingbird Way to the eastern end of Windsong Terrace. Applicable Ordinance Provisions: Section 62.23(6)(b) of the Wisconsin Statutes regulates official mapping by municipalities. Section 2-52 of the Municipal Code and Article XII of the Zoning Ordinance designate a function and duty of the Plan Commission to make recommendation on the establishment and amendment to the City’s Official Map. Property Location and Background Information: Official mapping is the process by which a municipality can designate or reserve areas for specific public uses for future acquisition and development. Once officially mapped, those areas are essentially treated as right-of-way from a setback perspective and no building permit may be issued for new construction or expansion that does not conform to the location of the official map unless otherwise authorized by the local legislative body. In Wisconsin, municipalities may use official mapping to establish an official street network and future streets, historic districts, parks and playgrounds, railroad right-of-way, public transit facilities, and waterways. The subject site consists of part of two parcels located west of the Casey’s Meadow South Subdivision and east of Clairville Road, east of the end of Windsong Terrace. The majority of the land where the mapping is proposed is owned by Thomas Rusch, original land owner of the Casey’s Meadow South development. The other lot is located just west of Windsong Terrace which was created by Certified Survey Map (CSM) Number 6986. At the time of the CSM review, city staff required that the CSM reserve an area for future right-of-way purposes to serve as an extension of Page 1 Item I – Official Mapping – Mockingbird Way 2 Windsong Terrace. This extension was also planned for eventual connection to Mockingbird Way. The two lots are located in the Town of Algoma. Per the Intergovernmental Agreement and Cooperative Plan between the City and Town, this area is identified as Zone C, City Expansion area and is scheduled to attach/annex to the city on March 1, 2023. The surrounding area consists of vacant and agricultural uses to the north and south, a single-family residential development to the east and rural-type low density residential uses to the west. The City’s 2040 Comprehensive Land use Plan recommends light density residential uses appropriate for this area.

This will hold in-place sufficient area for an eventual street connection to Clairville Road. This will provide a much needed collector street access for the residential developments to the east. In 2005 the Common Council approved the Preliminary Plat for Casey’s Meadow South (Figure 1) which has seen significant development with five phases to date. At the time of the preliminary plat creation, city staff requested the developer create a Figure 1 Page 2 Item I – Official Mapping – Mockingbird Way 3 concept plan for a future addition to Casey’s Meadow (Figure 2) which shows potential development west of the preliminary plat. The concept called for two connections to Clairville Road; one being Mockingbird Way connecting to Clairville Road via Windsong Terrace, and the other, Ruschfield Drive (now named Casey Trail). The additional connections to a collector street will lower traffic congestion for commuters entering and exiting the residential developments, especially during peak hours. As of now it is uncertain when construction of the extension of Mockingbird Way will occur. Driving factors such as new housing needs and future economic conditions will dictate the timing as additional phases of Casey’s Meadow South are developed. Until then, the proposed official mapping will ensure the land is available for its eventual construction. The Comprehensive Plan recommends the subject site suitable for light density residential development. Staff is of the opinion that the proposed mapping action is consistent with the Plan’s recommendation as it will provide additional collector street access for the subdivisions to the east. RECOMMENDATION/CONDITIONS Planning staff recommends approval of the proposed official mapping of Mockingbird Way as requested.
