Vote 4-4)
B A C KGRO UN DBACKGROUND
The applicant is requesting an amendment to the Recommended Land Use Map in the Comprehensive
Plan. The subject area is designated for Interstate Commercial land use; the applicant is requesting a
change to a Community Facility land use designation. The petitioner is requesting a comprehensive land
use map amendment of an existing 10.26-acre commercial property located along North Washburn
Street. The site includes a 24,360 sq. ft. office building and associated parking area that was originally
used as a car dealership and was most recently used as an office facility for Oshkosh Corporation.
The applicant has requested to use the site for an indoor institutional use (church). The proposed use is
not consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and is not permitted in the SMU district. The lot will require a
comprehensive land use map amendment and zone change to allow the proposed use. The surrounding
area consists of primarily of commercial uses to the north and south along North Washburn Street,
residential and open space use to the west, and Interstate 41 to the east.
A N A L Y SI SANALYSIS
In October 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. 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, may need to be updated or revised periodically to accommodate
logical requests/changes in future land use.
The petitioner approached the City about utilizing the existing building on the subject site for a church.
The proposal was brought to a Plan Commission workshop on June 20, 2023. Plan Commission was
generally supportive of the proposal.
Staff has concerns that amending the future land use designation of the subject property to Community
Facility would disrupt the cohesiveness of the commercial frontage along North Washburn Street. Staff
believes that the existing Interstate Commercial land use designation continues to be the highest and
best land use designation due to the site location within the City of Oshkosh's I-41 commercial corridor
and would be inconsistent with the surrounding development. The City of Oshkosh Comprehensive Plan
establishes goals and actions. Goal LU3 states, "encourage compatible land use development" and
LU3.1 states, "promote land use decisions that do not conflict with adjoining properties." The proposed
amendment would conflict with these goals and objectives.
Staff evaluated other institutional land uses along I-41 in neighboring communities. Staff found the
institutional land uses in Neenah and Grand Chute were not within the primary established commercial
area, but rather were located in areas of less intense development and surrounded by other institutional
uses and residential land uses.
B OA RD /COM M I SSI ON I N FORM A TI O NBOARD/C O M M I SSI O N I N FO RM A TI O N
The September 5, 2023 Plan Commission meeting involved significant discussion related to the proposed
Comprehensive Plan amendment. During the hearing, several individuals spoke in favor of the request.
Plan Commission members discussed issues related to adjoining zoning, intensity of land uses,
comprehensive planning processes, and how the end use would fit within the area. The attached minutes
provide further information related to their discussion. Due to the tie vote, the Plan Commission did not
make finding regarding the amendment. Common Council will need to determine finding during their
deliberation. The Statutes and Ordinances allow the Council to consider all relevant information. Some
considerations related to Comprehensive Plan Amendments may include:
The amendment will correct an error in the existing Comprehensive Plan
The proposed amendment is generally consistent with the vision, goals, objectives and policies
contained in the Comprehensive Plan or there has been a change in community characteristics or
actions that justify a change
The proposed amendment will not be detrimental to property in the immediate vicinity or to the
community as a whole
The proposed amendment will not have a significant adverse impact on the ability to provide
adequate public facilities or services or will improve public facilities and services for a portion of or
the community as a whole
REC O M M E N D A TI ONRECOMMENDATION
The Plan Commission vote tied 4-4 and comes to Common Council without a recommendation. Please

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
Subject Site
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.
The petitioner approached the City about utilizing the existing building on the subject
site for a church. The proposal was brought to a Plan Commission workshop on June
20, 2023. Plan Commission was generally supportive of the proposal.
Staff has concerns that amending the future land use designation of the subject property
to Community Facility would disrupt the cohesiveness of the commercial frontage
along North Washburn Street. Staff believes that the existing Interstate Commercial
land use designation continues to be the highest and best land use designation due to
the site location within the City of Oshkosh’s I-41 commercial corridor and would be
inconsistent with the surrounding development. The City of Oshkosh Comprehensive
Plan establishes goals and actions. Goal LU3 states, encourage compatible land use
development and LU3.1 states, promote land use decisions that do not conflict with

Staff evaluated other institutional land uses along I-41 in neighboring communities.
Staff found the institutional land uses in Neenah and Grand Chute were not within the
primary established commercial area, but rather were located in areas of less intense
development and surrounded by other institutional uses and residential land uses.
RECOMMENDATION
Comprehensive Land Use Map Amendment:
Staff recommends denial of the requested land use map amendment from Interstate
Commercial to Community Facility for property located at 425 North Washburn Street
with findings that the proposed amendment is not consistent with the goals and
objectives of the Comprehensive Plan and is not consistent with the surrounding area.
The Plan Commission vote tied 4-4 and comes to Common Council without a
recommendation regarding a Comprehensive Land Use Plan Map Amendment from
Interstate Commercial to Community Facility for property located at 425 N Washburn
Street.
Site Inspections Report: Ms. Scheuermann, Ms. Davey, Ms. Propp, Mr. Bowen, Mr.
Loewenstein, and Mr. Kiefer reported visiting the site.
Staff report accepted as part of the record.
The applicant is requesting an amendment to the Recommended Land Use Map in the
Comprehensive Plan. The subject area is designated for Interstate Commercial land
use; the applicant is requesting a change to a Community Facility land use designation.
Mr. Slusarek presented the items and reviewed the site and surrounding area as well as
the land use and zoning classifications in this area. The subject site is a 10.26-acre
commercial property located along North Washburn Street. The site includes a 24,360
square foot office building and associated parking area that was originally used as a car
dealership and was most recently used as an office facility for Oshkosh Corporation.
The surrounding area consists primarily of commercial uses along to the north and
south along North Washburn Street, residential and open space use to the west, and
Highway 41 to the east. The applicant is requesting to use the site as a church. That use
would require a Comprehensive Plan Amendment from the existing Interstate
Commercial designation to Community Facility. It would also require a rezone to
Institutional District. The proposal was brought to a Plan Commission workshop on
June 20, 2023. Plan Commission was generally supportive of the proposal. Staff has
concerns that amending the future land use designation of the subject property to
Community Facility would disrupt the cohesiveness of the commercial frontage along
North Washburn Street. Staff believes that the existing Interstate Commercial land use
designation continues to be the highest and best land use designation due to the site
location within the City of Oshkosh’s I-41 commercial corridor and would be
inconsistent with the surrounding development. The City of Oshkosh Comprehensive
Plan establishes goals and actions. Goal LU3 states, encourage compatible land use
development and LU3.1 states, promote land use decisions that do not conflict with
adjoining properties. The proposed amendment would conflict with these goals and
objectives. Staff evaluated other institutional land uses along I-41 in neighboring
communities. Staff found the institutional land uses in Neenah and Grand Chute were
not within the primary established commercial area, but rather were located in areas of
less intense development and surrounded by other institutional uses and residential
land uses.
Staff recommends denial of the requested land use map amendment from Interstate
Commercial to Community Facility for property located at 425 North Washburn Street
with findings that the proposed amendment is not consistent with the goals and
objectives of the Comprehensive Plan and is not consistent with the surrounding area.
Mr. Perry opened up technical questions to staff.
Ms. Propp did not recall that City staff was strongly recommending denial during the
workshop.
Mr. Lyons stated they did raise concerns at the workshop. City staff does not give a
recommendation, they just lay out what the applicant is proposing during a workshop
setting. City staff’s role is to evaluate any proposal against our ordinances and best
practices from a planning standpoint once an application is filed. Staff took a look at
the City’s Comp Plan, the primary planning principles, and ethically had to recommend
denial.
Mr. Perry asked if there was anything that adjoined this that would be the same zoning
or close to it.
Mr. Lyons stated there is no institutional zoning in this area. There is Suburban Mixed
Use (SMU) up and down the 41 corridor both on the east and west sides. Single family
residential with a mix of DR-6 and SR-3 to the west of it.
Mr. Perry stated in surrounding communities there are a couple examples of this type
of building on the interstate but when he went to look at one, he could see there were
other institutional use surrounding it, near it, or touching it.
Mr. Lyons said they reference it in the staff report. Staff took a closer look at similar
situations of institutional land uses in Neenah and Grand Chute. In Neenah there are
institutional land uses, with a cemetery in the area, as well as some single family
residential. It is not right in the middle of their commercial corridor. Further north, in
Grand Chute, as you go along that curve in the 41 corridor you have that very large
institutional use. It is surrounded by single and multifamily residential. It is not in the
middle of the commercial block.
Ms. Davey inquired what the grey section, on the parcel above the subject, represented.
Mr. Slusarek stated there are storage units there; industrial use.
Mr. Perry asked if the owner/applicant wanted to make any statements.
Caleb Ihrig, 3550 Bambi Lane, sits on the board at River Valley Church. He was at the
informal workshop in June. River Valley Church’s current location is on High Avenue
across from the Oshkosh Museum. It is a 1.5-acre lot with less than 100 parking spots.
Currently Sunday attendance is about 700-725. Over the last number of years, they
have torn down their parsonage, expanded the parking lot, and added a third service.
They are starting to max out the third service, having to turn people away, which they
never want to have to do. They have been looking for a suitable location for a number
of years. Renovating an existing building is two to three times cheaper than new
construction. They have been looking at repurposing a commercial property due to the
building size and parking requirements they would need. This is the first property they
have found that poses as a real possibility. Land use maps have never and will never
account for churches. Churches have to fit where they can and where they are able. He
believes this is a logical request to the future land use. In Section 30-50 of the City code
the definition of institutional zoning districts intent: This district is intended to permit
both large- and small-scale institutional development including those on single sites
within larger areas of both residential and non-residential zoning districts. There is no
requirement to have institutional neighbors. If that was the case churches would be
extremely limited to where they could be located. There used to be a church on North
Washburn Street in Oshkosh which is now the super Walmart. We have precedent to
have a church on North Washburn. Father Carrs across the highway shows on the
future land use map as being institutional, which is also on the 41 corridor. He
understands City staff’s desire to pursue the best and highest use. He could make the
argument that he does not think Shopko and Kmart being converted to storage units
was the best and highest use, but that is technically commercial use. They would be
willing to pursue a conditional use on this property but code does not allow indoor
institutional as a conditional use on something that is zoned Suburban Mixed Use
(SMU).
Mr. Perry asked for any public comments.
Steve Harris, 365 Westbrook Drive, lives in the residential area to the west of the subject
property. He is in support of the proposal and believes it will enhance the community
and breathe new life into an existing vacant building. Using the space for a new church
instead of something like storage facilities would put to better use our limited resources
and add value to our neighborhood. The church supports many people including those
less fortunate. Their influence extends positively throughout the community. The
proposal may help the west side of the 41cooridor by attracting 600-800 people every
Sunday morning, potentially boosting local businesses. We would gain a peaceful and
environment free from the noise and disruption of power tools or heavy machinery
associated with industrial spaces. He hopes you consider the proposal favorably. He
pointed out an area north of this site which has been sitting empty for ten plus years,
which has a stream running through it.
Erik Gialdella, 1642 River Mill Road, is the owner of Rev’s Bowl Bar and Grill located at
275 North Washburn. Rev’s has been there going on nine years. He is in support of the
proposal. He believes River Valley Church would be an amazing tenant for the
property, knowing their foothold in the community, and what they do. Seeing the back
part of the property for many years he knows it has not been maintained very well. He
believes River Valley would have a beautiful looking facility and property that would
raise the stacks over there quite a bit from what they see now. He has been traveling
recently. At the intersection of Highway 32 and 43 over by Sheboygan, there is a huge
church that has gone up and a very strong commercial market. In De Pere where there
has been a lot of commercial improvements happening just after the Sheuring Road exit,
heading north, there is also a large church right there. He thinks it can be done and it
can be a benefit for the community in those areas. We see it is happening in those
communities. It would bring a lot of value, respect, and appreciation to our City in that
location.
Mr. Perry closed public comments and asked if the applicant wanted to make any
closing statements.
Caleb Ihrig stated in Grand Chute it was Life Church which moved into what used to
be a Dick’s Sporting Goods, repurposing a large commercial property with existing
parking. Oshkosh Corp was previously in the building at 425 North Washburn, for the
last thirteen years as corporate offices. They reevaluated their office needs and pulled
out of this and many other buildings. People are not lining up for large office spaces.
The best and highest use based off a recent appraisal is industrial, so a machine shop or
something like that. Their plan is to do mostly interior renovations. They are not
looking to do major additions or significant exterior modifications to expand the
parking or anything like that. They just want to reconfigure the interior. They have
been in Oshkosh for just over 70 years and their hope is this facility would provide
them with a home for the next 70
Mr. Lyons noted that if Plan Commission was inclined to recommend approval, it
would be necessary to make specific findings to go along with.
Motion by Bowen to recommend approval of the Comprehensive Plan Amendment from
Interstate Commercial to Community Facility.
Seconded by Kiefer.
Mr. Perry asked if there was any discussion on the motion.
Mr. Esslinger stated he would be voting present on this issue. He thinks there are more
people for a Council Member to speak to after this meeting, and he wants more time for
that.
Mr. Perry stated that whatever action Plan Commission takes this will be going before
Council as a recommendation.
Ms. Scheuermann was wondering what Father Carrs zoning is, and if it would be
rezoned institutional.
Mr. Lyons stated it is zoned Suburban Mixed Use (SMU). There is no intention to
rezone.
Ms. Scheuermann wanted to know what the area to the north is zoned that Mr. Harris
referenced.
Mr. Lyons stated it is zoned Suburban Mixed Use (SMU). It has been on the market for
a number of years. It is the old Kienast property, and has been marketed for
commercial sale. It has some challenges with wetlands and floodplain. It is zoned
commercial.
Ms. Scheuermann asked where institutional falls within the different layers, like heavy
industrial, commercial, light use, etc.
Mr. Lyons stated institutional land uses do not necessarily fall in what you would
typically think of in that pyramid of intensity of use. Institutional land uses cover a
very broad range of things that can take place on a property, and have very different
perspectives on intensity. There is a huge variety of institutional land uses, such as
schools, warming shelters, and religious uses.
Mr. Bowen asked if churches are allowed anywhere other than in institutional land use.
Mr. Lyons stated indoor institutional is a conditional use permit. It is only allowed
from rural holdings (least intense zoning district) through all of the single-family &
multi-family residential districts, institutional, and in neighborhood mixed use (NMU)
which is the lowest commercial district. It is not in any of the districts above NMU.
Mr. Loewenstein asked when the City does long term planning, do they plan for
churches.
Mr. Lyons stated it is hard to predict, so the City has to take proposed church sites on a
case-by-case basis. The City has to look at the proposed use and the surrounding area
to see if it is compatible.
Ms. Davey stated she is inclined to support the proposal. She thinks it is a logical use,
and a very sustainable use for that area. The applicant does do not have to build
anything new, nothing has to be torn down, and it will not look any different.
Ms. Propp agreed with Ms. Davey, but she also understood City staff wanting to
maintain the Comp Plan.
Mr. Lyons stated these are unique land uses and that is why they go through Plan
Commission and Common Council. Staff has to look at the big picture and the City as a
whole. We are not making another Interstate 41 Corridor, we have one. It is our
primary commercial corridor. When possible, we would like to keep that intact for
commercial. It is up to Plan Commission and Common Council to evaluate these
specific requests to determine if they want to deviate and change that.
Mr. Loewenstein was wondering if they would be setting a precedent if they were to
approved this. Practically, making this a church is a great use for the abandoned
building that does not have a clear use right now. In the long term, we have to look at
what we want the highway 41 corridor to be.
Mr. Lyons stated it is important for Plan Commission and Council to articulate findings
and reasons why if they are to support this. Then when future decisions need to be
made for other proposals, we can look back upon this.
Mr. Bowen stated at this location there is a very accessible arterial street, Washburn. It
can carry a lot of traffic in and out. When the traffic is concentrated it does not
necessarily back up. There is an existing parking field that can accommodate a
tremendous amount if vehicles. There is the ability to function in a way that does not
become an infringement upon the properties around it. We cannot forecast every
location that a church or other religious facility is going to have. We can make a
distinction and say these are the characteristics of that use, of the church use. If Plan
Commission is going to approve this, he thinks the findings would be the specific
physical characteristics of this particular property support this as a use in the way that
others might not. We can rely on that in the future to guide decision making when
looking at other institutional zones. In his opinion Washburn Street is a secondary
commercial corridor compared to Koeller Street.
Mr. Perry mentioned precedent setting and Shopko.
Motion tied 4-4.

SUB JEC T:SUB JEC T :Res 23-512 Approve Specific Implementation Plan Amendment for Façade and Patio
Modifications Located at 1 North Main Street
B A C KGRO UN DBACKGROUND
The petitioner requests an amendment to the Specific Implementation Plan approval for façade and
patio modifications at 1 North Main Street. The subject site is the existing Best Western Premier Waterfront
Hotel & Convention Center, which is located on the west side of North Main Street and has frontage on
the Fox River. The parcel is zoned Central Mixed-Use District with Planned Development and Riverfront
Overlays (CMU-PD-RFO). The parcel is 1.15 acres in area and includes a restaurant in addition to a
hotel/convention center. The surrounding area consists primarily of commercial land uses along with the
Oshkosh Convention Center to the east. The 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan recommends Center
City use for the subject area. On April 9, 2013, the Common Council approved a Planned Development
for signage at the subject property.
A N A L Y SI SANALYSIS
No changes are being proposed to the existing use of the site. The applicant plans to convert the existing
Best Western Premier Waterfront Hotel to a Marriott Hotel. The converted hotel will remain at 176 rooms
with ballroom, meeting rooms, fitness center, and restaurant as it sits today. Exterior site changes include
a new 430 sq. ft. sidewalk area, a new 578 sq. ft. patio area with pergola on the north side of the site,
and a new pergola over the existing patio seating area on the south (waterfront) side of the site.
The applicant has submitted plans for new wall signage on all facades of the hotel. The proposed wall
signs are within the maximum area of 1 sq. ft. per linear foot of building façade and meet the material
requirement of ¾" thickness or greater. The applicant is also replacing existing signage on the pedestrian
bridge to the Oshkosh Convention Center and a post sign and directional signs on the abutting City
parking garage site. These signs will be the same dimensions as the existing signs for the Best Western
hotel and Ground Round restaurant. Staff is recommending a base standard modification (BSM) to
continue to allow the signs to be replaced in the same location and same dimensions. The applicant is
proposing substantially less signage area on the site than allowed by code, which will serve to offset the
requested BSM.
The existing building is clad in face brick with dark bronze anodized window frames and tinted glass. The
applicant is proposing the following modifications to the building:
North side of building:
Apply porcelain tile façade to existing face brick along the entrance and patio façade areas.
Replace one window unit with double doors to patio. Door frames and glazing to match existing
building (bronze anodized door frames with tinted glazing).
New 4' tall black metal fencing to surround patio.
New black metal pergola with suspended lighting.
South/East side of building:
Wood siding and composite trim at east and south entries and southeast façade area.
Porcelain tile vertical accent at east façade.
New bi-parting sliding glass door at south façade (under pergola).
New wood and steel pergola frame at south façade with sail cloth, suspended lighting, and radiant
heaters.
Staff is supportive of the proposed building modifications as they will serve as accents to the existing
building and should enhance the appearance of the site. Staff feels that the proposed building
modifications are in conformance with Central Mixed Use District (CMU) and Riverfront Overlay (RF-O)
design standards as the exterior materials complement the existing building and utilize high quality
materials. The façades also maintain existing door and window areas and provide a visual connection to
the waterfront with the addition of the pergola and façade accents.
FI SC A L I M P A CTFISCAL I M P A C T
The applicant is anticipating spending approximately $8 million on interior and exterior improvements to
the property.
REC O M M E N D A TI ONRECOMMENDATION
The Plan Commission recommended approval of the Specific Implementation Plan Amendment for
Façade and Patio Modifications located at 1 North Main Street as requested with findings on October 3,
2023. Please see the attached staff report and meeting minutes for more information.

ANALYSIS
Use
No changes are being proposed to the existing use of the site. The applicant plans to
convert the existing Best Western Premier Waterfront Hotel to a Marriott Hotel. The
converted hotel will remain at 176 rooms with ballroom, meeting rooms, fitness center,
and restaurant as it sits today.
Site Design
There are no changes being proposed to the site, with the exception of 430 sq. ft. of new
sidewalk area and 578 sq. ft. of new patio area with pergola on the north side of the site
and a new pergola over the existing patio seating area on the south (waterfront) side of
the site.
Proposed site plan.
North patio area
South patio area
The north patio addition has a 19’ setback from the north property line. The proposed
pergola on the south side of the building has a 0’ setback along North Main Street and a
0.5’ setback along the south (waterfront) property line.
Staff does not have concerns with the proposed patio and pergola additions as the CMU
district does not have a maximum impervious surface ratio and has a 0’ minimum front
yard setback. Staff is recommending a condition to ensure that the pergola does not
extend over the public right-of-way or Riverwalk.
Signage
The applicant has submitted plans for new wall signage on all facades of the hotel. The
proposed wall signs are within the maximum area of 1 sq. ft. per linear foot of building
façade and meet the material requirement of ¾” thickness or greater.
The applicant is also replacing existing off-premise signage, including signage on the
pedestrian bridge to the Oshkosh Convention Center and a post sign and directional
signs on the abutting City parking garage site. These signs will be the same dimensions
as the existing off-premise signs for the Best Western hotel and Ground Round

allow the off-premise signage to be replaced in the same location and same dimensions
as existing signage. The applicant is proposing substantially less signage area on the

Landscaping
No additional pavement is required as properties in the CMU district are exempt from
landscaping requirements, with the exception of paved areas.
Storm Water Management
The Department of Public Works has reviewed the plans and noted that full site plan
review is required and plans shall include grades, drainage, location of impervious
features, and a site data table showing impervious features before and after the
construction.
Lighting
The provided plans do not include new lighting for the site, other than suspended
lighting for the patio areas. Any additional lighting for the site will be subject to the
standards of the lighting ordinance, which have a maximum lighting level of 0.5 fc at
property lines and 1.0 fc at the public right-of-way.
Building Facades
The existing building is clad in face brick with dark bronze anodized window frames
and tinted glass. The applicant is proposing the following modifications to the
building:
North side of building
- Apply porcelain tile façade to existing face brick along the entrance and patio
façade areas.
- Replace one window unit with double doors to patio. Door frames and glazing
to match existing building (bronze anodized door frames with tinted glazing).
- New 4’ tall black metal fencing to surround patio.
- New black metal pergola with suspended lighting.
South/East side of building
- Wood siding and composite trim at east and south entries and southeast façade
area.
- Porcelain tile vertical accent at east façade.
- New bi-parting sliding glass door at south façade (under pergola).
- New wood and steel pergola frame at south façade with sail cloth, suspended
lighting, and radiant heaters.
Staff is supportive of the proposed building modifications as they will serve as accents
to the existing building and should enhance the appearance of the site. Staff feels that
the proposed building modifications are in conformance with Central Mixed Use
District (CMU) and Riverfront Overlay (RF-O) design standards as the exterior
materials complement the existing building and utilize high quality materials. The
facades also maintain existing door and window areas and provide a visual connection
to the waterfront with the addition of the pergola and façade accents.
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.
(c) The proposed architecture and character of the proposed Planned
Development project is compatible with adjacent/nearby development.
(d) The proposed Planned Development project will positively contribute to and
not detract from the physical appearance and functional arrangement of
development in the area.
Staff recommends approval of the Specific Implementation Plan amendment as
proposed with the findings listed above and the following conditions:
1. Except as specifically modified by this Specific Implementation Plan
Amendment, the terms and conditions of the original Planned Development
approval dated April 9, 2013 remains in full force and effect.
2. Base Standard Modification to allow off-premise signage on pedestrian bridge
and City parking garage site to be replaced at the same size/dimensions as
existing off-premise signage.
3. Pergola may not extend over the public right-of-way or Riverwalk.
The Plan Commission recommended approval of Specific Implementation Plan
Amendment for Façade and Patio Modifications at 1 North Main Street on October 3,
2023. The following is Plan Commission’s discussion on the item.
Site Inspections Report: Ms. Scheuermann, Ms. Propp, Mr. Nichols, and Mr. Esslinger
reported visiting the site.
Staff report accepted as part of the record.
The petitioner requests an amendment to the Specific Implementation Plan approval for
façade and patio modifications at 1 North Main Street.
Mr. Slusarek presented the items and reviewed the site and surrounding area as well as
the land use and zoning classifications in this area. The subject site is the existing Best
Western Premier Waterfront Hotel & Convention Center, which is located on the west
side of North Main Street and has frontage on the Fox River. The parcel is zoned
Central Mixed-Use District with Planned Development and Riverfront Overlays (CMU-
PD-RFO). On April 9, 2013, the Common Council approved a Planned Development
for signage at the subject property. The applicant plans to convert the existing Best
Western Premier Waterfront Hotel to a Marriott Hotel. The converted hotel will remain
at 176 rooms with ballroom, meeting rooms, fitness center, and restaurant as it sits
today. There are no changes being proposed to the site, with the exception of 430 sq. ft.
of new sidewalk area and 578 sq. ft. of new patio area with pergola on the north side of
the site and a new pergola over the existing patio seating area on the south (waterfront)
side of the site. The north patio addition has a 19’ setback from the north property line.
The proposed pergola on the south side of the building has a 0’ setback along North
Main Street and a 0.5’ setback along the south (waterfront) property line. Staff does not
have concerns with the proposed patio and pergola additions as the CMU district does
not have a maximum impervious surface ratio and has a 0’ minimum front yard
setback. The applicant has submitted plans for new wall signage on all facades of the
hotel. The proposed wall signs are within the maximum area of 1 sq. ft. per linear foot
of building façade. The applicant is also replacing existing off-premise signage,
including signage on the pedestrian bridge to the Oshkosh Convention Center and a
post sign and directional signs on the abutting City parking garage site. These signs
will be the same dimensions as the existing off-premise signs for the Best Western hotel
and Ground Round restaurant. Staff is recommending a base standard modification
(BSM) to continue to allow the off-premise signage to be replaced in the same location
and same dimensions as existing signage. The applicant is proposing substantially less
signage area on the site than allowed by code, which will serve to offset the requested
BSM. The applicant is proposing the modifications to the north-side of the building:
Apply porcelain tile façade to existing face brick along the entrance and patio façade
areas; Replace one window unit with double doors to patio. Door frames and glazing
to match existing building (bronze anodized door frames with tinted glazing); New 4’
tall black metal fencing to surround patio; New black metal pergola with suspended
lighting. South/East side building modifications: Wood siding and composite trim at
east and south entries and southeast façade area; Porcelain tile vertical accent at east
façade; New bi-parting sliding glass door at south façade (under pergola); New wood
and steel pergola frame at south façade with sail cloth, suspended lighting, and radiant
heaters. Staff is supportive of the proposed building modifications as they will serve as
accents to the existing building and should enhance the appearance of the site. Staff
feels that the proposed building modifications are in conformance with Central Mixed
Use District (CMU) and Riverfront Overlay (RF-O) design standards as the exterior
materials complement the existing building and utilize high quality materials. Staff
recommends approval of the Specific Implementation Plan amendment as proposed
with the findings and conditions listed in the staff report.
Mr. Perry opened up technical questions to staff.
Mr. Propp wanted Mr. Slusarek to go over the changes to the north patio area again.
Mr. Perry asked if the owner/applicant wanted to make any statements.
David Helgeson, General Manager of 1 North Main Street in Oshkosh. Resides at 8532
Old Market Drive in Larsen WI 54947. They are looking to put ten million dollars into
the hotel, which was last refurbished in 2013. It will be changing into a Marriott, and
they hope it will bring in more travelers. This location will have the only M-Club in the
entire state of Wisconsin. The M-Club is a concierge club for premium and elite
travelers. It will be created using some of the current smaller meeting rooms, and will
have an outdoor patio on the north-side of the building. All of the hotel rooms will be
redone. It will be a great product when all is said and done.
Mr. Perry asked for any public comments.
Mr. Perry closed public comments.
No closing statement from the applicant.
Motion by Propp to adopt the findings and recommendation as stated in the staff report.
Seconded by Scheuermann.

SUB JE C T :SU B J E C T :Res 23-513 Approve 2023 Great Neighborhoods Capital Improvement Programs Funding in
the Amount of $138,000
B A C K G RO U N DBACKGROUND
The Great Neighborhoods Program provides residents the opportunity to originate projects that enhance
quality of life through strategic improvements to the public realm. Projects are intended to improve the
image, market, and physical conditions of Oshkosh neighborhoods. Staff provides recognized
neighborhood associations, pursuing healthy neighborhoods, the opportunity to apply for funding to
support capital improvement projects within their neighborhoods. A total of three projects were
submitted and staff is recommending all three of the projects for Common Council consideration at this
time.
In 2022, the Common Council approved a total of $232,400.00 of Great Neighborhoods Capital
Improvement Program funding (Res. 22-526).
A description of last year's projects and the current status is listed below for your review.
The Common Council previously approved $175,000 within the City's Capital Improvement Program for
the 2023 Great Neighborhoods Program.
A N A L Y SI SANALYSIS
The following projects have been reviewed by City staff and are being proposed to utilize Great
Neighborhoods Program funding. Projects are selected that help achieve the City's strategic plan goals
of improving and maintaining infrastructure, and enhancing the quality-of-life services and assets.
Projects Recommended:
1. Bent Woods Gathering Space Improvements $40,000
The Bent Woods Neighborhood Association is requesting improvements be done at a City-owned vacant
lot to create a more welcoming gathering space for their neighborhood. The improvements consist of
additional concrete, an ADA-compliant picnic table, a neighborhood sign, a little free library, benches,
new trees, and various flower beds. Staff has determined that the site is not developable due to its
irregular triangle shape and being a double-fronted lot on a corner. Community Development Staff
worked closely with the Parks/Forestry Department to create a suitable plan for the site that can be
properly maintained for years to come.
2. William Waters Gazebo $80,000
The William Waters Gazebo is part of the overall William Waters Plaza Master Plan. The River East
Neighborhood Association has requested additional funding to move the gazebo project forward.
Private fundraising has accounted for approximately 80% of the total cost for the project. River East is
requesting Great Neighborhoods funding to cover the remaining cost. The project has been on hold since
2021 while trying to secure additional funding. Approval of this request would ensure the project can
move forward and avoid the potential of the private funding being rescinded.
3. Stevens Park Bus Shelter $18,000
The Stevens Park Neighborhood Association is requesting that a bus shelter be installed at an existing bus
stop on the northwest corner of Waugoo Avenue and Rosalia Street. Neighborhood leaders worked
closely with City staff to determine where a new bus shelter should be installed within the neighborhood
boundaries, considering current bus routes, existing bus stops, and current ridership data. This location
became the most feasible due to those existing metrics. This project includes the purchase and
installation of a new bus shelter and related concrete around the shelter.

GREAT NEIGHBORHOODS PROGRAM
The Great Neighborhoods Program is designed to enhance the image, market, and
physical conditions of Oshkosh neighborhoods. The program provides residents the
opportunity to originate projects that enhance quality of life through strategic
improvements to the public realm. Working in collaboration with City staff, residents
initiate, plan, and implement projects and activities in the pursuit of Healthy
Neighborhoods of choice in Oshkosh. The Great Neighborhoods Program is funded by
the City’s Capital Improvement Program and is intended to strengthen neighborhoods
in Oshkosh.
ELIGIBLE PROJECTS
Eligible projects must support capital improvements to the public realm; which includes:
City-owned property/buildings, parks, and public streets. Applicants are strongly
encouraged to work with City staff on project phasing for projects that cannot be
implemented within 12 months of Common Council approval. Eligible applicants with
complex projects may be advised to apply to support project planning rather than
implementation. Preference will be given to projects that further implementation of an
approved City of Oshkosh Plan or enhance a capital improvement project that has been
identified within the City’s 5-Year Capital Improvement Program.
It is common for complex projects to be broken into phases in order to accomplish tasks
in the most efficient order. Each phase of a project may take long er than one year to
complete, which can end up over lapping into the following program cycle year. In the
past, we have allowed applicants to apply for the next phase of the project before the
previous phase has been completed. This does not help projects get completed faster. In
an effort to improve the program, projects that are part of a greater project occurring in
phases will not be eligible if the preceding phase has not yet been completed. Phased
projects must be completed in order before moving on to the next phase.
Applicants can apply for funding to support conceptual project planning or project
implementation.

City of Oshkosh 1 2023 Great Neighborhoods Program
PROGRAM APPLICATION
Neighborhood Association: River East
Neighborhood Representative: Kathy Webb
Phone number: (920) 235-8487 Email: kwebb1365@gmail.com
Amount requested: $80,000
Briefly describe the project/activity, including its purpose, who will manage it,
community partners, and start/end dates:
The River East Neighborhood Association is requesting funding to fill the remaining gap
necessary to construct the gazebo as identified in the adopted William Waters Plaza Plan.
The majority of the project has by privately funded; however, a small gap remains to bring the
full project to fruition. River East Neighborhood resident leaders have previously worked with
Planning Services staff to obtain final design plans for the William Waters Plaza and Gazebo.
Possible community partners for this project include the City of Oshkosh Parks and Planning
Departments, Oshkosh Public Library, the Landmarks Commission, and the Winnebago
County Historical Society. Approval of this request would allow the City to leverage significant
private investment and continue implementation of the William Waters Plaza Plan.
Scope/Quality/Creativity/Anticipated Outcomes:
For a number of years, professional design concepts and plans for the William Waters
Gazebo have been created, finalized, and bid for construction. Previously anticipated costs
were much lower than they are today. Current construction costs have made the available
private funding insufficient. The proposed gazebo’s design and materials are one of a kind,
rich in history, unique to Oshkosh, our riverfront and will help fully realize the goal of the
William Waters Plaza Plan.
Neighborhood Benefit:
The completion of this project will build a sense of community in the River East Neighborhood,
and City of Oshkosh at large, by providing residents an opportunity to come together around
shared assets and history. In addition, this project will further beautify our neighborhood and
the downtown area. In fact, these public improvements could prove to be intrinsically and
instrumentally valuable in their ability to educate, create jobs, increase real estate value,
increase tourism, and build community.
Project Readiness:
CITY OF OSHKOSH
GREAT NEIGHBORHOODS PROGRAM
City of Oshkosh 2 2023 Great Neighborhoods Program
Upon funding approval, River East residents and Community Development staff will finalize
construction contracts and construction could begin yet this summer.
Consistency with Existing Plans and Policies:
This proposal is consistent with all aspects of the City’s Great Neighborhoods Program and
William Waters Plaza Plan. Furthermore, these projects support the City Council’s strategic
plan goal of continuing to strengthen neighborhoods by engaging residents and creating
investment in neighborhoods.
Neighborhood Association Involvement:
The River East Neighborhood Association has a core group of resident leaders who are
committed to improving their neighborhood. A committee has worked closely with city staff for
a number of years finalizing plans and designs for the William Waters Gazebo.
BUDGET
Project Costs (Please list all cash expenditures required for the project including cost
of permits, fees, etc.):
The project has been bid and has expected total cost of $370,000.
Project Income (Please list all cash available to cover the “Project Costs”. This does
not include in-kind matches or donated materials and supplies.):
Presently approximately $310,000 in private funding is available.
Please list in-kind donations of goods and services:
The River East Neighborhood Association has already maintained this space for years, and
will continue to do that into the future. In spring, River East residents work with the Parks
Department to plant annual flowers at William Waters Plaza. They have also held a number of
community events in this space.

B A C KGRO UN DBACKGROUND
The applicant requests a zone change from the existing Single Family Residential-9 District (SR-9) to
Institutional District (I) for property located on the south side of the 100 Block of West Custer Avenue. The
subject area consists of a vacant lot along the south side of the 100 block of West Custer Avenue owned
by the Oshkosh Area School District. The site is currently zoned SR-9 and previously had a single-family
home that was recently razed. The surrounding area consists primarily of residential uses to the north and
east, and institutional uses to the south and west. The 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan recommends
Light Density Residential uses for the subject area.
A N A L Y SI SANALYSIS
The applicant is requesting a zone change to Institutional District (I) for the subject property fronting West
Custer Avenue. This request is intended to provide appropriate zoning for development of future green
space for the neighboring school, Vel Phillips Middle School. The rezone will provide consistent zoning for
the properties, which is needed to complete a CSM to combine them.
The proposed Institutional zoning is not consistent with the 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan
recommendation of Light Density Residential for the subject site. However, staff does not have concerns
with the proposed rezone to Institutional as the Comprehensive Plan is not intended to be parcel specific
and the purpose of this rezone is to allow for the lot to be combined with the existing school parcel and
future development of the new school's green space.

Zone Change
The applicant is requesting a zone change to Institutional District (I) for the subject
property fronting West Custer Avenue. This request is intended to provide appropriate
zoning for development of future green space for the neighboring school site. The rezone
will provide consistent zoning for the properties, which is needed to complete a CSM to
combine them.
The proposed Institutional zoning is not consistent with the 2040 Comprehensive Land
Use Plan recommendation of Light Density Residential for the subject site. However,
staff does not have concerns with the proposed rezone to Institutional as the
Comprehensive Plan is not intended to be parcel specific and the purpose of this rezone is
to allow for future development of the new school’s green space. For these reasons, staff
is supportive of the proposed rezoning of the subject site.
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.
(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.
RECOMMENDATION/CONDITIONS
The Plan Commission recommended approval of a zone change from the existing Single
Family Residential-9 District (SR-9) to Institutional District (I) for property located on the
south side of the 100 Block of West Custer Avenue on September 19, 2023. The following
is Plan Commission’s discussion on the item.
Site Inspections Report: Ms. Scheuermann, and Mr. Esslinger reported visiting the site.
Staff report accepted as part of the record.
The applicant requests a zone change from the existing Single Family Residential-9
District (SR-9) to Institutional District (I) for the vacant property located on the south side
of the 100 Block of West Custer Avenue.
Ms. Dziengeleski presented the items and reviewed the site and surrounding area as well
as the land use and zoning classifications in this area. The site is currently zoned SR-9
and previously had a single-family home that was recently razed. The surrounding area
consists primarily of residential uses to the north and east, and institutional uses to the
south and west. The 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan recommends Light Density
Residential uses in that area. This request is intended to provide appropriate zoning for
development of future green space for the neighboring school site. The rezone will
provide consistent zoning for the properties, which is needed to complete a CSM to
combine them. The proposed Institutional zoning is not consistent with the 2040
Comprehensive Land Use Plan recommendation of Light Density Residential for the
subject site. However, staff does not have concerns with the proposed rezone to
Institutional as the Comprehensive Plan is not intended to be parcel specific and the
purpose of this rezone is to allow for future development of the new school’s green space.
For these reasons, staff is supportive of the proposed rezoning of the subject site. Staff
recommends approval of the rezone with the findings listed in the staff report.
Mr. Perry opened up technical questions to staff.
Mr. Esslinger was wondering what future activities would be happening on the parcel.
Mr. Lyons stated the school district wants to combine parcels, but state statute requires
they be under common zoning. Likely use is just green space.
Mr. Perry asked if the owner/applicant wanted to make any statements.
Nate Considine, with Bray Architects of 829 South First Street Milwaukee Wisconsin, was
available for any questions.
Mr. Perry asked for any public comments.
Mr. Perry closed public comments.
No closing statement from the applicant.
Motion by Scheuermann to adopt the findings and recommendation as stated in the staff
report.
Seconded by Loewenstein.
Mr. Perry asked if there was any discussion on the motion.

B A C KGRO UN DBACKGROUND
The applicant requests a zone change from the existing Two Flat Residential -- 10 District with a Planned
Development Overlay (TR-10-PD) to Central Mixed Use District (CMU) for the property located at 17 East
Parkway Avenue. According to the City Assessor's data, the property contains one building that was
constructed in 1956 and is currently listed as vacant. The surrounding area consist of mainly commercial
uses to the north, south, and west; residential to the east, along with an institutional land use to the
northeast. The 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan recommends Center City land uses for the subject
area.
A N A L Y SI SANALYSIS
The applicant is requesting a zone change to Central Mixed Use Zoning District for the subject property.
The applicant intends to utilize the existing vacant building to store and sell pool tables. This type of
commercial land use - retail sales - is not permitted in the current zoning district of TR-10-PD and therefore
would be considered a legal non-conforming land use. The applicant intends on making improvements
to the site but legal non-conforming land uses cannot be expanded. This zone change request is
intended to provide the proper zoning to allow for future improvements to occur on the lot as the land
use will be permitted by right.
The applicant stated they plan to pave a concrete loading area and install the proper stormwater
features for appropriate drainage on the site, along with a 5' buffer yard of green space to the west of
said loading area. Staff is supportive of the proposed rezone as it will assist in the future development of
the site. Staff does not have concerns with proposed rezone to CMU, as land uses allowed in that district
meet the Center City land use recommendations in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan designated for this
area.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Applicant/Owner: Jeremy West/J West Rentals LLC
Action(s) Requested:
The applicant requests a zone change from the existing Two Flat Residential – 10 District
with a Planned Development Overlay (TR-10-PD) to Central Mixed Use District (CMU)
for the property located at 17 East Parkway Avenue.

Property Location and Background Information:
The subject area consists of a 1,701 square foot parcel that is located on the south west
side corner of Parkway Avenue and Jefferson Street. According to the City Assessors
data, the property contains one building that was constructed in 1956 and is currently

Zone Change
The applicant is requesting a zone change to Central Mixed Use Zoning District for the
subject property. The applicant intends to utilize the existing vacant building to store
and sell pool tables. This type of commercial land use, retail sales, is not permitted in the
current zoning district of TR-10-PD and therefore would be considered a legal non-
conforming land use. The applicant intends on making improvements to the site but
legal non-conforming land uses cannot be expanded. This re-zone request is intended to
provide the proper zoning to allow for future improvements to occur on the lot as the
land use will be permitted by right as well as bring it into harmony with the rest of the
commercial block and 2040 Comprehensive Plan.
The applicant stated they plan to pave a concrete loading area and install the proper
stormwater features for appropriate drainage on the site, along with a 5’ buffer yard of
green space to the west of said loading area.

The city generally restricts parking in industrial areas due to heavy truck traffic, congestion, and
maneuvering. Area residents have requested this section of Ripple Avenue be no parking similar to other
industrial areas, as the area has become very congested. Employees of Generac were utilizing on-street
parking during the construction of their expanded parking lot. This ordinance restricts parking on the
north side from Oregon Street to its western terminus.
A N A L Y SI SANALYSIS
Generac has completed the expansion of their employee parking lot and they have sufficient off-street
parking available. They are supportive of Ripple Avenue being no parking. There are still employees
parking on the street as it is closer to their work areas than walking from the parking lot.

*Ord 23-527 Repeal Provisions in Chapter 8 of the City Municipal Code Requiring a Junk
Dealer License and Amend Provisions Pertaining to Direct Sellers and Solicitors to Include Junk
and Scrap Collectors
B A C KGRO UN DBACKGROUND
Council is being asked to approve an ordinance eliminating provisions for licensing of junk and scrap
dealers and to revise the regulations pertaining to persons directly soliciting door-to-door within the City to
include junk and scrap dealers. The City Clerk's office is currently responsible for the licensing of junk and
scrap dealers and issues very few of these licenses.
Last year, Council reviewed and updated the municipal code provisions pertaining to all other types of
door-to-door direct solicitors, eliminating the licensing requirements and updating the regulations to
reasonably address identified health, safety, and welfare concerns.
A N A L Y SI SANALYSIS
The proposed ordinance eliminates the requirement for door-to-door junk and scrap dealers to obtain a
city license and makes junk and scrap dealers subject to the same regulations as other door-to-door
sellers and solicitors. These regulations include prohibitions on solicitation between 9 pm and 9 am,
soliciting at residences that are posted for no solicitation, making false representations, impeding traffic,
excessive noise and littering, and require solicitors to comply with city and state statutes pertaining to
secondhand goods.
A clean and redlined version of the ordinance are attached to show the updated language as well as
the changes that are proposed.
FI SC A L I M P A CTFISCAL I M P A C T
There is minimal anticipated fiscal impact associated with the proposed ordinance change. The City
Clerk issues very few of these licenses. Each license requires time to be spent by the Clerk's office
reviewing the documentation. The value of this time exceeds the $10 license fee collected.

SUBJECT:Res 23-530 Approve Amendment No. 3 to Professional Services Agreement with University of
Wisconsin-Milwaukee for Archaeological Investigations for Pratt Trail Reconstruction ($169,782)
BACKGROUND
A professional services agreement with University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) for archaeological
investigations for the Pratt Trail Reconstruction Project was signed on March 31, 2023. During the course of
the Project, it was determined by the State Historical Preservation Office and the Wisconsin Department
of Natural Resources that this Project would have an adverse effect to portions of archaeological and
uncatalogued burial sites. To minimize impacts to potential burial features, Amendments No. 1 and 2
were approved by Common Council (Council) at the September 12, 2023 Council meeting. Since the
approval of these two (2) amendments, it has been determined that there are more archaeological and
uncatalogued burial sites than originally anticipated. This amendment's scope of services includes
documentation and testing of additional features to determine if burials are present, and excavation
and re-internment of the burial features.
ANALYSIS
Staff have reviewed the scope of services, and find that the costs associated with this scope of services
are commensurate with the amount of work to be performed.
FISCAL IMPACT
The cost of these services is estimated not to exceed $169,782. Funding is available for this agreement in
CIP Account #03250610-7216-62010 / Parks Improvement-Land Improvement-Menominee Park.
RECOMMENDATION
Chapter 12 of the Municipal Code of the City of Oshkosh provides that professional services of a
specialized nature may be procured without the use of formal, sealed quotes. I have reviewed the
scopes of services and in accordance with Section 12-16 of the Municipal Code, I am hereby
recommending that the Common Council approve this amendment.

SUB JEC T:SUB JEC T :Res 23-531 Approval of Acquisition of Industrial Park Land ($995,000)
B A C KGRO UN DBACKGROUND
City staff routinely analyzes available industrial park land in the City of Oshkosh to ensure that there are a
variety of vacant parcels available to meet the needs of businesses looking to grow in the City. City staff
closely monitors privately-owned parcels that are adjacent to City properties and are for sale to see if
there are any opportunities for industrial park expansion. The two subject parcels located adjacent to the
Southwest Industrial Park have been for sale for nearly ten years. Staff has looked at the two parcels in
the past due to the location of the property and the frontage along the railroad track operated by
Watco.
At this time, the City has a limited number of large, shovel-ready parcels to offer businesses. It is crucial
that the City has shovel-ready parcels to offer businesses in order to compete with other communities.
A N A L Y SI SANALYSIS
The City submitted a conditioned offer (that was subsequently accepted) on the acquisition of 40 acres
of privately-owned land that is adjacent to the City's Southwest Industrial Park on the south, east and
west side, and adjacent to vacant land off of West 20th Avenue on the north side. Contingencies were
included in the offer, which require Council approval and the ability to thoroughly investigate the parcels.
The property owners have agreed to the proposed purchase price of $24,782 an acre for a total
purchase price of $995,000.00.
The City intends to combine the parcels with the existing industrial park, which will expand the buildable
area in the Southwest Industrial Park and allow the City to offer larger properties to businesses. The
parcels will have access to City utilities and the regional stormwater facility. The Southwest Industrial Park
is a highly-desirable location for businesses due to the proximity to Interstate 41, State Highway 44, and
State Highway 26.
FI SC A L I M P A CTFISCAL I M P A C T
The subject property is approximately 40 acres in size with a purchase price of $995,000.00.
REC O M M E N D A TI ONRECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that Council authorizes the purchase of Fantastic Six, LLC parcels for the future
expansion of the Southwest Industrial Park.

Gallery Build-Out for Oshkosh Public Museum ($35,655.00)
B A C KGRO UN DBACKGROUND
The Waldwic Gallery (also known as the Multi-Purpose Gallery) in the Oshkosh Public Museum has been
planned since 2017. A multi-phased approach to updating permanent exhibition spaces on the second
floor called for the renovation of the space, once used for the permanent exhibition "Memories and
Dreams," in its second phase. This specific project developed from the growing need for a larger, more
flexible gallery space. This 1,970-square-foot area will be used to host staff-curated and national traveling
exhibitions.
A N A L Y SI SANALYSIS
Given Facility Engineering, Inc.'s (FEI) current engagement with the Museum to provide
architectural/engineering services for the Museum's loading door project adjacent to the Waldwic
Gallery, staff solicited a proposal from the firm for the Waldwic Gallery build-out project. FEI has been
engaged in several Museum projects in the last several years, including the Carriage House roof
replacement, chimney repairs, building envelope repairs, and more. Their current engagement with the
loading door project and masonry repairs allows them to combine site visits and minimize costs with the
addition of the Waldwic Gallery project. The tentative timeframe for this project is to bid out the work by
early spring 2024 with full completion by fall 2024. The Waldwic Gallery is expected to be open for exhibits
by late 2024.
FI SC A L I M P A CTFISCAL I M P A C T
The total fiscal impact of FEI's cost proposal for these architectural/engineering services is $35,655.00. The
current available budget for this project is $460,863.00. Funds for this project are from FY22 CIP funding,
ARPA, and an approved transfer of fund savings from a previous project (Resolution 23-352, approved
July 11, 2023). These services will be charged to A/N#: 03231070 7214 63170 (Buildings - Museum General

In November 2022, the Department of Public Works reported to the Common Council an agreement with
Donohue for engineering design and bidding assistance services for the Wastewater Treatment Plant's
Digester and Headworks roofs replacement ("Project"). The Project was sent out for bid at the end of
March 2023. Only one (1) bid was received, which was rejected due to the bid of $632,200 exceeding
the Project estimate of $275,000. It was decided to re-bid the Project in the fall of 2023 for construction in
2024 in an attempt to receive more favorable bids.
A N A L Y SI SANALYSIS
The purpose of this amendment is to provide additional services to re-bid this Project. These services
include: incorporating the addenda from the first bidding into the plans and specifications; updating the
front-end documents to reflect the second public bidding schedule; preparing for and attending a
mandatory pre-bid meeting, as well as taking notes and preparing minutes of the meeting; providing
support to the City of Oshkosh during the second public bidding; and writing a letter of recommendation
for the second bidding.
