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 8, 2022
RE: Approve Specific Implementation Plan Amendment for an Electronic Message
Board at 2300 Witzel Avenue
BACKGROUND
The petitioner requests approval of a Specific Implementation Plan (SIP) amendment for an
electronic message board at 2300 Witzel Avenue. The subject site is an irregularly shaped 2 acre
lot, with frontage on Witzel Avenue, west of the Westbrook Drive, and north of Graceland Drive.
The property is zoned Neighborhood Mixed Use District with a Planned Development Overlay
(NMU-PD). The surrounding area consists primarily of residential uses to the north, south, and
east as well as commercial uses to the west along Witzel Avenue. The 2040 Comprehensive Land
Use Plan recommends Neighborhood Commercial use for the subject area.
On April 12, 2022, the Common Council approved a General Development Plan and Specific
Implementation Plan for a dental clinic development at the subject site. An SIP amendment for
landscaping modifications was approved on September 13, 2022.
ANALYSIS
The applicant has submitted a sign plan for a two-sided, 10’ tall monument sign, which includes
a 26 sq. ft. static sign and 24 sq. ft. electronic message center (EMC). The proposed sign has a 25’
front yard setback, meeting the setback requirement for the NMU district. The proposed sign is
at the maximum height of 10’ and under the maximum of 50 sq. ft. for monument signage in the
NMU district. The applicant is requesting a Base Standard Modification (BSM) for the proposed
electronic message center (EMC) as Electronic Message Board signs are prohibited in the NMU
District.
According to the applicant, the sign is needed as Glacier Dental is being developed on a busy
street, where they feel an EMC would attract drivers and pedestrians to their facility and would
advertise for hiring, events, display time/temperature, and specials. The applicant feels that the
EMC would not be detrimental to neighboring residential properties as it will be perpendicular
to the road, facing commercial properties to the west and residential properties to the east that
are approximately 200’ away from the sign with trees buffering the view. The applicant also
notes that the EMC will have a photo eye that will automatically adjust the lighting of the display
City Hall, 215 Church Avenue P.O. Box 1130 Oshkosh, WI 54903-1130 920.236.5000 http://www.ci.oshkosh.wi.us
so that it dims at night. Glacier Dental has stated that they will not run the display past “curfew
hours” to help cut down on any issues with residents.
Staff has concerns with allowing an EMC on this site due to the proximity of neighboring
residential properties to the east and south. Prohibiting the display of an EMC on this property
will be consistent with the purpose of the Signage ordinance, specifically 30-270(A)(5), to
“preserve the value of private property by assuring the compatibility of signs with surrounding
land uses.” Staff does not feel that there are circumstances unique to this property that justify a
BSM to allow an electronic message board.
The applicant’s narrative mentions an existing EMC to the east along Witzel Avenue at
Winnebago Community Credit Union (2060 Witzel Ave.). However, this property is zoned
Suburban Mixed Use District (SMU), which allows electronic message boards, and is
surrounded by commercial land uses.
RECOMMENDATION
The Plan Commission recommended denial of the Specific Implementation Plan amendment
with findings on December 6, 2022. Please see the attached staff report and meeting minutes for
more information.
Respectfully Submitted, Approved:

with 75-stall parking lot. No changes are being proposed to the approved use of the site.
Site Design
No changes are being proposed to the approved site design, with the exception of repositioning
the proposed ground sign.

Signage
The applicant has submitted a sign plan for a two-sided, 10’ tall monument sign, which includes
a 26 sq. ft. static sign and 24 sq. ft. electronic message center (EMC). The proposed sign has a
25’ front yard setback, meeting the setback requirement for the NMU district.
ITEM VI- SIP Amendment – 2300 Witzel Ave. 3
The proposed sign is at the maximum height of 10’ and under the maximum of 50 sq. ft. for
monument signage in the NMU district. The applicant is requesting a Base Standard
Modification (BSM) for the proposed electronic message center (EMC) as Electronic Message
Board signs are prohibited in the NMU District.
According to the applicant, the sign is needed as Glacier Dental is being developed on a busy
street, where they feel an EMC would attract drivers and pedestrians to their facility and would
advertise for hiring, events, display time/temperature, and specials. The applicant feels that the
EMC would not be detrimental to neighboring residential properties as it will be perpendicular

are approximately 200’ away from the sign with trees buffering the view. The applicant also
notes that the EMC will have a photo eye that will automatically adjust the lighting of the
display so that it dims at night and Glacier Dental has stated that they will not run the display
past “curfew hours” to help cut down on any issues with residents.
Staff has concerns with allowing an EMC on this site due to the proximity of neighboring

will be consistent with the purpose of the Signage ordinance, specifically 30-270(A)(5), to

ITEM VI- SIP Amendment – 2300 Witzel Ave. 4
Zoning map of subject area
The applicant’s narrative mentions an existing EMC to the east along Witzel Avenue at
Winnebago Community Credit Union (2060 Witzel Ave.). However, this property is zoned
Suburban Mixed Use District (SMU), which allows electronic message boards, and is
surrounded by commercial land uses.
Landscaping
No changes are being proposed to the approved landscaping plan
Storm Water Management
The Department of Public Works reviewed the plans and did not have concerns with proposed
amendments.
Building Facades
No changes are being proposed for the building facades.
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 not consistent with the overall
purpose and intent of this Chapter.
(c) The proposed Planned Development project would not maintain the desired
relationships between land uses, land use densities and intensities, and land use impacts
on the environs of the subject site.
(h) The proposed Planned Development project will not positively contribute to and will
detract from the physical appearance and functional arrangement of development in the
area.
ITEM VI- SIP Amendment – 2300 Witzel Ave. 5
Staff recommends denial of the Specific Implementation Plan amendment as proposed with the
findings listed above.
The Plan Commission recommended denial of the Specific Implementation Plan as requested on
December 6, 2022. The following is their discussion on the item.
Site Inspections Report: Mr. Bowen reported visiting the site.
Staff report accepted as part of the record.
The petitioner requests approval of a Specific Implementation Plan (SIP) amendment for an
electronic message board at 2300 Witzel Avenue.
Mr. Slusarek presented the item and reviewed the site and surrounding area as well as the land
use and zoning classifications in this area. The previously approved GDP/SIP for the site was
for a two-story, 16,786 sq. ft. dental clinic with 75-stall parking lot. No changes are being
proposed to the approved use of the site. Staff recommends denial with the findings and
conditions as listed in the staff report.
Mr. Perry opened up technical questions to staff.
Ms. Scheuermann asked how much larger the Glacier Dental sign is compared to the credit
union sign.
Mr. Lyons said he will have to double check the sizing but the overall size is within the code
parameters but electronic message centers are reserved for the commercial corridors which is
why SMU allows them, but NMU doesn’t which is the lowest of the commercial districts.
Mr. Kiefer said that it is just the EMC portion that is not allowed.
Mr. Slusarek said yes and if they wanted to do a static sign of that size it would be permitted.
Mr. Perry said his biggest concern was the brightness of the size and he was happy to learn that
there would be a way to dim it or time that it would be off. However, it is in an area where it is
not allowed so it is a challenging decision.
Ms. Scheuermann asked if there were any exceptions for EMCs in the NMU district.
Mr. Lyons said there has not been any exceptions made.
Mr. Perry asked for any public comments and asked if the applicant wanted to make any
statements.
Kelsy-Ann Hayes; Creative Sign Company, 505 Lawrence Dr, De Pere, said that the credit union
sign is close to a 4’x8’and the one proposed by them is 3’x8’ so it would be smaller. They
understand the zoning difference between the two but Glacier Dental is still a commercial lot.
ITEM VI- SIP Amendment – 2300 Witzel Ave. 6
As the message center loses ambient lighting, it automatically dims so it will not be a nuisance
to the neighborhood and can be turned down at any time. Glacier Dental is willing to shut it
down at a certain time to help deter issues. The credit union sign is only 650 feet away so the
only factor is the zoning district.
Katie Balmer, Glacier Dental, 1720 Congress Ave, said that Glacier Dental is big in the Oshkosh
community and the sign will be used to promote local events, time and temperature. It will not
be an eyesore to the area. The landscaping will help shield the residential neighborhood from
the commercial property.
Mr. Perry closed public comments and asked if the applicant wanted to make any closing
statements.
There were no closing statements from the applicant.
Motion by Propp to approve the project as applied for.
Seconded by Scheuermann.
Mr. Perry asked if there was any discussion on the motion.
Ms. Davey said she will be voting no on this for a few reasons. EMCs are a traffic hazard
especially in this area. A resident has complained about this development and this would only
add to the complaints.
Ms. Propp said the staff recommendation was appropriate. It is the wrong sign for this zoning
district and it is unnecessary messaging. If the city needs a community bulletin board, it needs
to be somewhere else.
Mr. Mitchell said he agrees with Ms. Davey. Lighted signs are a distraction and he is happy to
see it now allowed in this district and would like to see prohibition in other districts.
Motion denied 0-9.

Glacier Dental would like to propose a message center to be added to their new monument sign at 2300
Witzel Avenue. This property is currently zoned mixed use with residential and mixed-use properties
surrounding the site.
The new sign would be built as shown in document D20092. The monument would be 10’ overall height
by 10’-8” overall width. This would house a 3’ H x 7’ W EMC.
How will the sign be aesthetically pleasing for the area?
The sign will match the new building materials and colors: including the same masonry base, same
building cap colors, and LED border tube. The design is a modern and provides an upscale look to this
area. This sign is not the only one of its kind. The Winnebago Community bank, located at 1750 Witzel
Avenue (roughly 650’ away) has a pylon sign with an EMC.
Why does Glacier Dental need an EMC?
Glacier Dental is a new property located on a busy street, but the property itself is setback from the
street. The company would like to attract drivers and pedestrians to their facility by noticing their digital
display. They would also like to advertise for hiring, events, display time/temp, and specials.
How will the sign not be a burden to the residential properties?
First and foremost, the closest residential property from the sign is across Witzel Avenue, to the south,
which is over 100’ away. The sign will be facing perpendicular to the road, so the lighting will be focused
to the East and West, not the North and South. The property to the West is not residential. The property
to the East (roughly 200’ away) has a row of trees between the properties that will help limit any
disturbance. The EMC has a photo eye that will automatically adjust the lighting of the display. At night
the sign will automatically dim down and will brighten itself during the day. Glacier Dental also agreed to
not run the display past curfew hours to help cut down on any issues with the residents.
