PLAN COMMISSION STAFF REPORT MARCH 19, 2024
ITEM II: PUBLIC HEARING: ZONE CHANGE FROM SUBURBAN MIXED USE
DISTRICT (SMU) TO SUBURBAN MIXED USE DISTRICT WITH A
PLANNED DEVELOPMENT OVERLAY (SMU-PD) FOR PROPERTY
LOCATED AT 555 SOUTH WASHBURN STREET
GENERAL INFORMATION
Applicant: Ben Witt
Owner: Park Place Holdings LLC
Actions Requested:
The applicant requests a zone change from the existing Suburban Mixed Use District (SMU) to
Suburban Mixed Use District with a Planned Development Overlay (SMU-PD) for the property
located at 555 South Washburn 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 a 0.99-acre commercial
property located on the west side of South Washburn Street, north of West 9th Avenue. The site
is currently utilized as a multi-tenant office building. The surrounding area consists primarily
of commercial uses along with a City water tower and fire station immediately to the south.
The 2040 Comprehensive Plan recommends Interstate Commercial land use for the subject
property 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 redevelopment of the subject property for a
new commercial use. The applicant has submitted plans for a drive-through restaurant
development, which included a General Development Plan (GDP) and Specific Implementation
Plan (SIP) request that was on a previous Plan Commission agenda. The GDP/SIP request was
withdrawn from the February 20th Plan Commission agenda as the applicant is working on
revisions to the original plans. The applicant intends to resubmit for GDP/SIP review at a future
date.
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. Specifically, the site has
hardships related to an ANR pipeline easement running through the property, existing cross-access
agreement with the neighboring property, and insufficient space for a second driveway access due
to limited lot frontage and existing neighboring driveways. The proposed SMU-PD zoning
designation is also consistent with the 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan recommendation
(Interstate Commercial) as well as the surrounding commercial land uses.
Rezone to SMU-PD

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 zone change with the findings listed above.
