Home My WebLink AboutItem II PLAN COMMISSION STAFF REPORT AUGUST 6, 2024 ITEM II: SPECIFIC IMPLEMENTATION PLAN AMENDMENT FOR LOADING DOCK ACCESS AT 3300 MEDALIST DRIVE GENERAL INFORMATION Applicant: Richard J Fisher Property Owner: Gen2 Holdings LLC Action(s) Requested: The applicant requests approval of Specific Implementation Plan Amendment for loading dock access. Applicable Ordinance Provisions: Planned Development standards are found in Section 30-387 of the Zoning Ordinance. Property Location and Background Information: The subject area involving this request consists of one developed industrial parcel totaling 17.05 acres. The property is located at the southeast corner of Medalist Drive and West 33rd Avenue. Existing structures include an approximate 140,000 square foot manufacturing building, a separate 19,500 square foot office building, three main off-street parking areas, and accessory structures. Four personal storage facility buildings are also being constructed on the site, which were included in a GDP/SIP approved by Common Council in 2023. The subject site as well as the surrounding area are located in the Aviation Industrial Park and consist of industrial uses. The 2040 Comprehensive Plan recommends industrial land use for the subject property as well as the adjoining parcels. Subject Site Existing Land Use Zoning Industrial HI-PD zone change Adjacent Land Use and Zoning Existing Uses Zoning North Industrial Heavy Industrial (HI) South Industrial Heavy Industrial (HI) East Vacant Heavy Industrial (HI) West Industrial Heavy Industrial (HI) Recognized Neighborhood Organizations N/A Page 1 ITEM II - SIP Amendment – 3300 Medalist Dr. Comprehensive Plan Comprehensive Plan Land Use Recommendation Land Use 2040 Land Use Recommendation Industrial ANALYSIS Use On June 13, 2023, Common Council approved a General Development Plan and Specific Implementation Plan for construction of four personal storage buildings, in addition to the existing buildings on-site. Lakeside Plastics has purchased a building on the site that was formerly used as an office building occupied by Oshkosh Defense (401 West 33rd Avenue) and intends to use it for a mix of office and manufacturing/warehousing. The proposed use of the building is permitted in the HI district. Site Design The applicant plans to add a loading dock to the east side of the building along with additional pavement for truck access to the loading dock. A cross-access agreement is required as the new paved loading dock access will run through the neighboring property to the north (450 West 33rd Avenue). The applicant has provided documentation of the required easement agreement. Page 2 ITEM II - SIP Amendment – 3300 Medalist Dr. The additional pavement will result in 69.5% impervious surface ratio for the site, which will remain under the maximum of 70% for the HI district. The applicant is requesting a base standard modification (BSM) to allow reduced side yard setback for the new pavement to 10’, where code requires a 20’ side setback. According to the applicant, the reduced setback is needed to allow for truck maneuvering to the loading dock. Staff does not have concerns with the reduced setback as it is abutting an undevelopable area of the industrial site to the east that is used for stormwater ponds. Lighting The applicant has provided a photometric plan for the loading dock area which includes wall- mounted fixtures along the loading dock. The plan shows 0.0 fc lighting level for most of the new paved loading dock access. The applicant is requesting a BSM to allow 0.0 fc lighting level for the vehicle circulation area where code requires a minimum of 0.4 fc for all vehicle circulation areas. According to the applicant, the required lighting is not needed for this area as it is only used for truck maneuvering and the lighting of the trucks will be sufficient for accessing the loading dock. Staff is supportive of the requested BSM as the subject area is isolated from all customer, employee, and pedestrian areas and should not cause safety concerns related to vehicle and pedestrian circulation. Signage No signage plans were submitted with this request. Storm Water Management/Utilities The Department of Public Works has noted that plans should indicate that connections will not be in the public right-of-way. Final storm water management plans will be reviewed during the Site Plan Review process. Landscaping An additional 45 paved area landscaping points are required for the added pavement. The provided landscaping plan meets this point requirement. The applicant has provided three arborvitae on the east side of the added pavement and is exceeding overall point requirements for the site to offset the requested BSMs. Page 3 ITEM II - SIP Amendment – 3300 Medalist Dr. Design Standards No changes are being proposed to the existing buildings, with the exception of two overhead doors being added to the east side of the subject building (401 West 33rd Avenue). The new overhead doors meet design standards requirements as the alteration is consistent with the existing building design and materials. Page 4 ITEM II - SIP Amendment – 3300 Medalist Dr. 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. Cross access agreement for shared driveway access shall be filed with the Winnebago County Register of Deeds. 2. Base Standard Modification (BSM) for reduced side yard setback for new pavement to 10’. 3. BSM for reduced lighting level of paved loading dock access to 0.0 fc. 4. Except as specifically modified by this Specific Implementation Plan Amendment, the terms and conditions of the original Specific Implementation Plan dated June 13, 2023 (Resolution 23-294) remain in full force and effect.

Lakeside Plastics has purchased one of the buildings located at 401 W 33rd Ave. the former use of this building was an office building occupied by Oshkosh Defense. There planned us is a mix of office and manufacturing / warehousing. The proposed alteration is to add a loading dock to the east side of the existing building that is accessed through their existing site. The tenants will be able to access their units any time via a secure gate system. The property is owned by : Marmax Holdings LLC W229 N2512 Duplainville Rd. Waukesha, WI 53188 And GEN2 HOLDINGS LLC 450 W 33RD Ave OSHKOSH, WI 54902 This project is compatible with the other land use’s surrounding property. This property and all abutting properties are zoned H1 heavy industrial with industrial buildings, storm water ponds or outdoor storage of military vehicles. The intensity of use will be low because the vehicles will be an extension of the existing Lakeside plastics operation and the new loading dock will be accessed from the existing lakeside plastics sit and not 33rd Ave. The newly paved area will drain to the existing storm water management system that was engineered for this amount of development on this site. The overall site meets the floor area ratio, paved areas and green space requirements. The zoning standards that are requested to be modified for this project. • We are requesting that the paving setback for the truck maneuvering be reduced from 20’-0” to 10’-0” per the attached plan. This updated plan has been revised to narrow the maneuvering lane to 20’ vs 30’-0” and the edge of paving has been moved away from the property line to 10;-0” If you need additional information, please contact me or the owners’ agent Brian Fisher at 262-613-4015.
