City Hall, 215 Church Avenue P.O. Box 1130 Oshkosh, WI 54903-1130 920.236.5000 http://www.ci.oshkosh.wi.us TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Common Council FROM: Mark Lyons, Planning Services Manager DATE: December 9, 2021 RE: Approve Specific Implementation Plan Amendment for an Accessory Building and Smoker Addition at 30 Wisconsin Street BACKGROUND The petitioner requests approval of a Specific Implementation Plan (SIP) amendment for an accessory building and smoker addition at 30 Wisconsin Street. The subject site is an approximately 129,000 square foot commercial condo parcel including a strip mall and restaurant with frontage on Wisconsin Street, Pearl Avenue, and Marion Road. The property is zoned Urban Mixed Use with a Planned Development Overlay (UMU-PD) and the surrounding area consists of commercial uses to the north, multi-family residential uses to the east, UW- Oshkosh to the west, and an industrial use to the south. The 2040 Comprehensive Plan recommends Center City land use for the subject property. On October 8, 2002, Common Council approved a Planned Development for construction of a separate restaurant building on the southern end of the site. The Planned Development was amended on September 23, 2003 to allow for additional parking area for the restaurant. ANALYSIS The applicant is requesting an SIP amendment for construction of an accessory building on the rear side of the restaurant building (Mahoney’s) as well as an enclosed smoker addition on the rear of the building. The proposed accessory building is intended to accommodate catering equipment and supply storage for a new tenant (Parker John’s) and the enclosed smoker will be used for preparing various foods that require the smoking flavor process. The applicant is requesting a Base Standard Modification (BSM) for the accessory building to be placed closer to the street than the principal structure. To offset the BSM, the applicant is proposing three new evergreen trees to be planted between the accessory building and right-of- way to buffer the view of the building from the street. Staff is supportive of the BSM for the accessory building placement as the property is double fronted, with the Marion Road side functioning as the rear of the property. Also, the accessory structure will exceed principal structure setbacks and will be further from the street than the existing dumpster enclosure. The City Hall, 215 Church Avenue P.O. Box 1130 Oshkosh, WI 54903-1130 920.236.5000 http://www.ci.oshkosh.wi.us enhanced landscaping adequately compensates for the accessory structure placement and will not have a detrimental effect to surrounding properties. The new accessory structure and smoker addition will be placed on existing pavement and will not result in an increase in impervious surface ratio for the site. FISCAL IMPACT Approval of this project may result in a minor increase in the assessed property value for the site. The applicant is anticipating spending approximately $27,000 on these improvements.

Site Design The proposed 10’ X 16’ accessory storage building will be located to the rear (south) of the existing restaurant. The 9’ 3” X 19’ 2”smoker enclosure will be constructed on the southeast corner of the existing building and attached to the existing structure. The storage building will be placed on an existing paved area and will have a 38’ ¾” setback from the Marion Road front property line and will be closer to the street than the principal structure (restaurant). Code requires accessory structures to have a minimum 60’ setback and be at least 5’ behind the principal structure for the UMU district.
