PLAN COMMISSION STAFF REPORT JULY 6, 2021
ITEM X: GENERAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN AND CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
REQUEST FOR AN INDOOR INSTITUTIONAL USE AT THE NORTHWEST
CORNER OF CEAPE AVENUE AND BROAD STREET
GENERAL INFORMATION
Applicant: Day by Day Warming Shelter
Owner: Oshkosh Housing Authority
Action(s) Requested:
The applicant requests approval of a General Development Plan and a Conditional Use Permit
for an indoor institutional use at the northwest corner of Ceape Avenue and Broad Street.
Applicable Ordinance Provisions:
Planned Development standards are found in Section 30-387 of the Zoning Ordinance. Indoor
Institutional uses are permitted only through a conditional use permit in the Institutional
District (I) as regulated in Section 30-50 (C) of the Zoning Ordinance. Criteria used for
Conditional Use Permits are located in Section 30-382 of the Zoning Ordinance.
Property Location and Background Information:
The subject area included in the zone change request consists of a vacant commercial lot and
vacant residential lot with a total of approximately 1.64 acres. The vacant commercial lot has
frontage on Ceape Ave., Broad St., and Otter Ave. The vacant residential lot has frontage on
Broad St. The surrounding area consists primarily of residential uses to the north and east along
with Riverside Park to the south and Court Tower Condominium to the west. The 2040
Comprehensive Plan recommends Center City land use for the subject properties.

ANALYSIS
The applicant is proposing to combine the two subject parcels into a single lot for an
institutional residential development (Day by Day Warming Shelter). A CSM will be required to
combine the parcels, and will need to be submitted to the Department of Community
Development for review. The proposed development includes a single story 12,970 sq. ft.
warming shelter which will provide overnight accommodation for the local homeless
population, allowing up to 50-60 guests per night. The site will also include a 16-stall parking
lot for employee and guest parking, with one-way access from Broad Street to Otter Avenue.
The previous item was for a rezone of the subject site to Institutional District with a Planned
Development Overlay (I-PD), as the existing Urban Mixed Use District with a Planned
Development Overlay (UMU-PD) does not allow indoor institutional land uses. With approval
of the rezone, the applicant may request a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for the proposed
indoor institutional development. The proposed plan will require base standard modifications
(BSMs) for reduced front setbacks along Otter Ave. and Ceape Ave. (minimum 30’ setback) and
reduced street side setback along Broad St. (minimum 25’ setback). A BSM will likely be
needed for the impervious surface ratio as the site appears to exceed the maximum 60% for the
lot.
As noted in the Rezone staff report, the proposal was discussed at a Plan Commission workshop as
well as a neighborhood meeting on June 1, 2021. Both Plan Commission and the neighborhood
residents in attendance voiced support for the plans.

Staff is supportive of the General Development Plan as the site layout is generally compatible
with the surrounding relatively high density urban area. Staff is recommending that all needed
BSMs be addressed as part of the Specific Implementation Plan (SIP) review. Staff is also
supportive of the request for a Conditional Use Permit as the proposed indoor institutional use
is consistent with surrounding institutional and high density residential land uses as well as the
2040 Comprehensive Land Use recommendation of Center City. The proposed warming shelter
will also provide a valuable service to the community.
Signage
The submitted preliminary renderings show a monument sign along the Ceape Ave. frontage.
As shown, the sign appears to meet sign dimension requirements for the Institutional District.
Final signage plans will be addressed under the SIP request.
Landscaping
The preliminary plans did not include a landscaping plan. Final landscaping plans will need to
be submitted as part of the SIP request. The applicant will need to meet all landscaping
requirements for building foundation, street frontage, paved areas, and yards, or apply for base
standard modifications.
Storm Water Management/Utilities
A preliminary storm water management plan was included with this request. The Department
of Public Works has noted that the site will be classified predominantly as redevelopment site
will be subject to the requirements of Chapter 14 of the City of Oshkosh Municipal Code Storm
Water Management. This will be addressed during the SIP and Site Plan Review processes.
Site Lighting
Lighting plans for the site have not yet been submitted. Lighting plans will be required to be
submitted as part of the SIP request.
Building Facades

ITEM X: GDP CUP NW corner Ceape Ave. & Broad St. 4
Preliminary building renderings were submitted as part of the GDP request, and include a
combination of masonry and siding as exterior materials. Final building elevations will be
required to be submitted as part of the SIP 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.
In its review and recommendation to the Common Council on an application for a
Conditional Use Permit, staff recommends the Plan Commission make the following
findings based on the criteria established by Chapter 30-382 (F)(3):
(1) Is in harmony with the Comprehensive Plan.
(2) Would not result in a substantial or undue adverse impact on nearby property,
the character of the neighborhood, environmental factors, traffic factors, parking,
public improvements, public property or rights-of-way, or other matters
affecting the public health, safety, or general welfare.
(3) Maintains the desired consistency of land uses, land use intensities, and land use
impacts as related to the environs of the subject property.
(4) The conditional use is located in an area that will be adequately served by, and
will not impose an undue burden on, any of the improvements, facilities, utilities
or services provided by public or private agencies serving the subject property.
(5) The potential public benefits outweigh any potential adverse impacts of the
proposed conditional use, after taking into consideration the applicant’s
proposal and any requirements recommended by the applicant to ameliorate
such impacts.

Staff recommends approval of the General Development Plan and Conditional Use Permit with
the findings listed above and the following condition:
1. No base standard modification (BSM) shall be granted as part of the General
Development Plan (GDP) approval. Rather, approval, conditional approval, or denial of
each BSM will be undertaken as part of Specific Implementation Plan (SIP) approval.

Zoning Map Amendment (Rezoning)
General Development Plan (GDP)
Conditional Use Permit (CUP)
Rezoning Request:
A zoning map amendment is being requested to change the current zoning from UMU/UMU-PD
to I-PD to allow the property to be used for Institutional Residential. The current zoning of the
property does not allow this proposed use therefore requiring the zoning change. There are
currently other Institutional zoned areas adjacent to this property, so this is not unique to the
area.
General Development Plan (GDP):
The proposed property is currently a vacant lot that is partially paved from a previously
demolished medical clinic building. The proposed use of this property is to construct a single-
story warming shelter for the overnight accommodation of the local homeless population.
Exterior materials of the proposed building would be a combination of masonry and siding
materials which would be compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. There will be onsite
parking that will accommodate staff and guest parking needs. On street parking in the area or
temporary use of a small number of stalls at the Leach across the street may be needed for the
volunteers on a daily basis for evening meals. Landscaping will be provided to comply with
code requirements, but some adjustments may be required at the building entrances for the
safety and security of staff and guests.
Conditional Use Permit (CUP):
A conditional use permit is required for this project because the proposed use (Institutional
Residential) is not allowed by right in the Institutional zoning district. This facility would
regularly allow up to 50 guests per night with the ability to flex up to 60 guests under certain
circumstances (extreme cold). The use of this facility by guests would be from 6:00 PM to 8:00
AM. Once a guest has checked into the facility for the night, they are not allowed to leave the
building until the next morning. This facility will not generate a high volume of traffic or noise
to the surrounding area. It is believed that this facility would be a benefit to the surrounding
area and is an ideal location with proximity to the downtown area and services needed by the
guests.
