ANALYSIS – COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE MAP AMENDMENT
In October of 2018, the City adopted the Comprehensive Plan Update 2040, an update to the
previous plan from 2005. Part of the update entailed refining the 20-Year Recommended Land
Use Map. The map is a representation of future land uses within the City and in the
extraterritorial three mile buffer. Future land use maps are intended to be used as a general
reference tool for determining appropriate future land use and growth patterns. When creating
the maps, recommended uses were determined on a broader scale rather than a parcel by parcel
basis. Staff realizes that sections of the Comprehensive Plan, including mapping portions, need
to be updated or revised periodically to accommodate logical requests/changes in future land
use.
In July of 2022, City staff received a proposal for a commercial development at the 1500 Block of
Oshkosh Ave. The proposal required a comprehensive land use map amendment, which was
brought before Plan Commission at a workshop as well as a neighborhood meeting, and
subsequently denied by Plan Commission/Common Council. At the Plan Commission
workshop and public hearing, Plan Commission recommended reviewing the entire Oshkosh
Ave. corridor to determine if it is appropriate to amend the Comprehensive Land Use Map to
allow for commercial uses in areas that are currently slated for future residential use.
Plan Commission workshops were held on September 20, 2022 and January 3, 2023 to further
discuss future land use of the area. Plan Commission voiced support for allowing future
commercial use on the western south side of Oshkosh Ave. & N. Koeller St. as this area includes
deeper lots that provide for potential commercial development.

Item II: Comp Plan Land Use Map Amendment 1164 N. Koeller St. – 1815 Oshkosh Ave.
A neighborhood meeting was held on December 1, 2022 to discuss the potential of amending
the Comprehensive Plan to allow future commercial use at the residential blocks located along
Oshkosh Ave. Those in attendance generally did not have concerns related to future commercial
use of the area to the west on the south side of Oshkosh Ave. & N. Koeller St.
Based on the feedback provided from the property owners, neighbors, and Plan Commission,
staff is recommending amendment of the Comprehensive Land Use Plan from Light Density
Residential to Neighborhood Commercial for the subject properties on the south side of the
Page 3
Item II: Comp Plan Land Use Map Amendment 1164 N. Koeller St. – 1815 Oshkosh Ave.
Oshkosh Ave. & N. Koeller St. intersection. Staff is supportive of the future land use plan
amendment as land use patterns in the area have predominantly been for commercial
redevelopment. Staff feels that Neighborhood Commercial is an appropriate land use
recommendation for this area as it will allow for lower intensity commercial zoning and land
uses, which should have less impact on neighboring residential uses to the south and east than
higher intensity land use designations such as General Commercial and Interstate Commercial.
RECOMMENDATION
Comprehensive Land Use Map Amendment:
Staff recommends approval of Comprehensive Land Use Plan amendment from Light Density
Residential to Neighborhood Commercial for properties located at 1164 N. Koeller Street – 1815
Oshkosh Avenue.

Subject: Land use amendment for Oshkosh Ave, N Koeller St, east of N Koeller St
Message: These are reasons for not amending comprehensive plan. 1. Increased development
will cause additional flooding in the Sawyer Creek flood zone. 2. The access of the backside of
1817 Oshkosh Ave will dramatically increase traffic in a family residential neighborhood. 3.
Development will increase the noise level in a quiet residential area. 4. There is plenty of
available property north of Oshkosh Ave that is better suited for business. 5. Changing the
amendment/development will cost the City when the economy is slowing. 6. It will decrease
the property values in the neighborhood. 7. The Outlet Mall would be a perfect area to fill
empty stores and not upset a family residential area. Thank you for your consideration for the
March 7th meeting.
