HomeMy WebLinkAboutItem III PLAN COMMISSION STAFF REPORT JANUARY 2, 2024 ITEM III: GENERAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN AMENDMENT FOR PROPERTIES LOCATED AT 250 NORTH SAWYER STREET & 1100 WITZEL AVENUE GENERAL INFORMATION Owner/Applicant: Lourdes Academy Foundation, Inc Action(s) Requested: The applicant requests approval of General Development Plan amendment for athletic fields at the Lourdes Academy site, located at 250 North Sawyer Street and 1100 Witzel Avenue. Applicable Ordinance Provisions: Planned Development standards are found in Section 30-387 of the Zoning Ordinance. Property Location and Background Information: The subject site consists of two properties totaling 16.4 acres, with frontage on Witzel Avenue, Josslyn Street, Southland Avenue, and North Sawyer Street. The 1100 Witzel Avenue property is the Lourdes Academy site and 250 North Sawyer Street includes a former drive-thru bank building that is utilized by Lourdes Academy. The surrounding area consists of a mixture of residential, institutional, and commercial uses. The 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan recommends Community Facility use for the subject area. On January 14, 2014, the Common Council approved a Planned Development for expansion of the Lourdes Academy site which included a new elementary school, expansion/renovation of the existing parking lot/circulation plan, construction of a new parking lot and reorganization of other site improvements such as athletic fields and accessory buildings. The approved site expansions were never constructed. On August 10, 2021, Common Council approved a Planned Development amendment (Resolution 21-395) for building and parking lot additions which were completed in 2022.

Sawyer St. & 1100 Witzel Ave. South Residential SR-9 East Residential & Commercial MR-12 & UI West Institutional & Commercial UMU & I-PD Comprehensive Plan Land Use Recommendation Land Use 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Recommendation Community Facility ANALYSIS Use/Site Design Lourdes Academy is proposing a remodel of the existing office building located at 250 North Sawyer Street to accommodate the pre-school/day care population, which is currently housed in the former elementary school on Oregon Street. They are also proposing a multiuse turf sports complex to include field space for baseball, football, soccer, and softball. The proposed football/soccer, baseball, and softball fields will be located to the north of the existing school. The project includes installation of 8’ tall perimeter fencing and interior baseball/softball fence backstops. The fields will also be provided with lights for evening events with an estimated 6 stadium light posts. The site plan also includes bleachers and press box on the east (Josslyn Street) side of the football/soccer field. Page 2 ITEM III: 250 N. Sawyer St. & 1100 Witzel Ave. The applicant has not yet held a neighborhood meeting as plans are in the conceptual phase, with General Development Plan (GDP) approval being requested to begin fundraising efforts. The applicant will need to hold a neighborhood meeting prior to submitting final plans for Specific Implementation Plan (SIP) approval. Final placement and details of the proposed fencing, light poles, and bleachers/press box will be required as part of the SIP review. Base standard modifications (BSM) will likely be needed for fence height/material, street side setback for bleachers/press box, and possibly accessory building height for the press box. Any requested BSM’s will be addressed during the SIP phase. The proposed athletic fields will extend over the property line separating 250 North Sawyer Street and 1100 Witzel Avenue. A Certified Survey Map (CSM) will be required to combine the properties. Signage Sign renderings were not included with this request. Final sign plans (if proposed) will be reviewed as part of the SIP request. Landscaping A landscape plan was not included with the submittal. The landscaping ordinance does not require additional landscaping as no additional building or paved areas are being proposed. However, additional landscaping may be utilized to compensate for requested BSMs. This will be addressed during the SIP phase. Storm Water Management/Utilities Storm water management plans have not been provided. Finalized storm water management plans will need to be submitted and approved as part of the Site Plan Review process. Site Lighting A photometric lighting plan was not submitted with this request. As previously noted, the applicant is planning to install approximately 6 stadium light posts. According to the applicant, the lights will be LED fixtures at an approximate height of 55 ft. and will be similar to lighting recently installed at Oshkosh West High School. This will require a BSM as the maximum light fixture height in the Institutional (I) district is 23 ft. A photometric lighting plan will need to be submitted as part of the SIP phase. Requested BSMs for increased light fixture height and intensity (if necessary) will be addressed as part of the SIP review. Building Facades No building modifications or new buildings are being proposed. FINDINGS/RECOMMENDATION/CONDITIONS Page 3 ITEM III: 250 N. Sawyer St. & 1100 Witzel Ave. 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. (b) The proposed Planned Development project is consistent with the City’s Comprehensive Plan and other area plans. (It is the responsibility of the City to determine such consistency.) (c) The proposed Planned Development project would maintain the desired relationships between land uses, land use densities and intensities, and land use impacts in the environs of the subject site. (d) Adequate public infrastructure is or will be available to accommodate the range of uses being proposed for the Planned Development project, including but not limited to public sewer and water and public roads. (e) The proposed Planned Development project will incorporate appropriate and adequate buffers and transitions between areas of different land uses and development densities/intensities. (g) The proposed architecture and character of the proposed Planned Development project is compatible with adjacent/nearby development. (h) The proposed Planned Development project will positively contribute to and not detract from the physical appearance and functional arrangement of development in the area. (i) The proposed Planned Development project will produce significant benefits in terms of environmental design and significant alternative approaches to addressing development performance that relate to and more than compensate for any requested exceptions/base standard modifications variation of any standard or regulation of this Chapter. Staff recommends approval of General Development Plan amendment with the findings listed above and the following condition: 1. Except as specifically modified by this General Development Plan Amendment, the terms and conditions of the existing Planned Development approval dated August 10, 2021 remain in full force and effect. 2. All requested base standard modifications (BSM) will be addressed as part of the Specific Implementation Plan (SIP) application. Page 4 Page 5 Page 6 Page 7 11-16-2023 To Whom It May Concern: Lourdes Academy is embarking on two projects in the coming months. The first is a change of occupancy remodel of the current Central Business Office located at 250 N. Sawyer Street. This will accommodate the pre-school/day care population which is currently housed in the former elementary school on Oregon Street. This project focuses on creating 3 classrooms and appropriate bathroom accommodations for this age group. The completion of this project is the final step of bringing the entire Lourdes Academy system onto one block. The second project is the creation of a multiuse turf sports complex on the existing green space of Lourdes Academy. This project would create athletic field space for the following sports: baseball, football, girl’s and boy’s soccer, and softball. We would also use this space to conduct our physical education classes and elementary recess. These fields will be enclosed with approximate 1,500 linear feet of 8-foot high perimeter fence and interior baseball/softball fence backstops. The fields will also be provided with lights for evening events with an estimated 6 stadium light posts having LED type with an approximate 55-foot height and similar to those at Oshkosh West. I am happy to provide any other details you need regarding these two projects. Thank you. Dr. John P. Dinegan Lourdes Academy System President Page 8 A A A A A Pa r c e l 1 56 6 , 4 3 1 S q .
