ITEM VI A: PUBLIC HEARING: ZONE CHANGE FROM HEAVY INDUSTRIAL
DISTRICT (HI) TO HEAVY INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT WITH A PLANNED
DEVELOPMENT OVERLAY (HI-PD) FOR PROPERTIES LOCATED AT 3400

GENERAL INFORMATION
Owner/Applicant: SDJ Properties LLC
Actions Requested:
The applicant requests a zone change from the existing Heavy Industrial District (HI) to Heavy
Industrial District with a Planned Development Overlay (HI-PD) for three properties located at
3400 - 3454 Jackson Street.
Applicable Ordinance Provisions:
Zoning map amendment standards are found in Section 30-381 of the Zoning Ordinance.
Background Information, Property Location and Type:
The subject area included in the zone change request consists of two commercial parcels (Soper
Companies) and a residential parcel that has been annexed into the City from the Town of
Oshkosh, with a total of approximately 7.81 acres. The properties have frontage along Jackson
Street. The surrounding area consists primarily of industrial and commercial uses to the north,
commercial uses to the west, residential uses to the south, and industrial uses to the east. The
2040 Comprehensive Plan recommends Industrial land use for the subject properties and the
adjoining parcels.

ANALYSIS
The applicant is requesting this zone change to establish a Planned Development Overlay to
provide flexibility to accommodate site constraints for future expansion and redevelopment of the
subject properties. The applicant intends to combine the three subject properties and has submitted
plans for expansion of the contractor yard area which will be addressed as General Development
Plan (GDP) and Specific Implementation Plan (SIP) review under the subsequent item.

Item VI A - Zone Change – 3400 - 3454 Jackson Street
Staff is supportive of the proposed zone change to include a Planned Development Overlay as it
will serve to accommodate future development needs for the site. The proposed HI-PD zoning
designation is also consistent with the 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan recommendation
(Industrial) as well as the surrounding land uses, which are predominantly commercial and
industrial. Also, the Planned Development Overlay will provide further review of future
development which is appropriate due to the proximity of the residential property to the south.
FINDINGS/RECOMMENDATION/CONDITIONS
In its review and recommendation to the Common Council on an application for a Zoning Map
amendment, staff recommends the Plan Commission make the following findings based on the
criteria established by Chapter 30-381 (D)(2):
(a) Advances the purposes of this Chapter as outlined in Section 30-03 and the
applicable rules of Wisconsin Department of Administration and the Federal
Emergency Management Agency.
(b) Is in harmony with the Comprehensive Plan.
(c) Maintains the desired overall consistency of land uses, land use intensities, and
land use impacts within the pertinent zoning districts.
(d) Addresses any of the following factors that are not properly addressed on the
current Official Zoning Map:
(ii) Factors have changed (such as new data, infrastructure, market conditions,
development, annexation, or other zoning changes), making the subject
property more appropriate for a different zoning district.
Staff recommends approval of the Rezone with the findings listed above.

SUMMARY OF PROCESS
The City of Oshkosh Plan Commission and Common Council act on all amendments to the Official Zoning Map.
The petitioner or owner should be present at both the Plan Commission and Common Council meetings to
discuss and answer questions regarding the request.
The application package is reviewed by Planning Services staff to determine conformance with adopted city
plans, zoning requirements and development standards. A staff recommendation is prepared for consideration
by the Plan Commission and Common Council. The petitioner will be provided with a copy of the staff report
and meeting notice several days prior to the Plan Commission meeting. The staff report and meeting notice will
also be available on the City’s website. No notice is sent to the petitioner or owner regarding the Common
Council’s consideration of the request. Petitioners and owners are encouraged to contact Planning Services
staff to find out when the request will be sent to the Common Council for review.
Neighborhood opinion is an important factor in the decision-making process. If the proposed development is
expected to have significant impact on other properties, the petitioner may be required to conduct a
neighborhood meeting to solicit public input prior to action by the Plan Commission and City Council. Planning
Services staff is available to offer assistance in compiling a mailing list for the neighborhood meeting. If deemed
appropriate, notification by mail informing the property owners within 100 feet of the subject property of the
proposal may substitute for the public meeting. Please note that a meeting notice will be mailed to all abutting
property owners regarding your request.
Within 90 days of filing a complete application, Plan Commission shall hold a public hearing to consider the
request. Within 60 days of the public hearing, the Plan Commission may make a written report to the Common
Council with recommendations regarding the proposal. The Plan Commission’s report is advisory only. The
Common Council will make the final decision regarding all zone change requests. The Plan Commission may lay
over requests to subsequent meetings if incomplete information is provided or additional questions or concerns
are raised at the meeting.
After the Plan Commission makes its recommendation, the request will be forwarded to the Common Council for
consideration. This generally occurs three weeks after the Plan Commission meeting depending on the date the
Council meeting is scheduled (the Council meets on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of every month) and on the
availability of a legal description for the zone change. Wisconsin State Statutes require a zone change to be
published as Class II notice in the local newspaper, the City takes care of this publication requirement prior to
the Council meeting.
The Common Council may approve the Official Zoning Map amendment as originally proposed, may approve
the proposed amendment with modifications, or may deny approval of the proposed amendment. If the
Official Zoning Map amendment is approved, the Ordinance is published in the newspaper on the following
Saturday and will be effective on Sunday. City administrative offices are notified of the effective date of the
Ordinance and will make changes to the Official Zoning Map accordingly.
