Seconded by Carpenter. Motion carried 4-0-1, Mr. Penney obtained from voting. Finding of Facts: Mr, Wilusz stated this is clearly in the public interest, no adverse impact to the neighboring property owners, and unique physical limitations for this type of facility in the central part of the city. Strict compliance would pose unnecessary hardship. Ms, Hentz stated if this was denied, it could potentially result in harm to the public interest, this is a great place for the kids that might not otherwise have any other place to go. Mr. Cornell stated there was no harm to the neighboring property owners fiom the way it is fenced in and controlled, Œ4SÖ:ro-S-SLVN'.STREET row-Oshkosh Sports Complex) Steven Arndt, applicant, University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, owner, request a variance to permit the installation oflight poles and fixtures varying fiom 50 to 80 feet tall on the baseball and softball fields of the Oshkosh Sports Complex. Section 30-22 (B)(5) of the Oshkosh Municipal Code: R-5 Multiple Dwelling District limits structures to a maximum of 45 feet in height. Mr. Buck introduced the item, passed around color pictures and stated a public neighborhood meeting was held on 3/20/06 regarding the Oshkosh Sports Complex. Tom Sonnleitner, Vice Chancellor for Administration UW-Oshkosh, 800 Algoma Blvd Mr. Sonnleitner stated Musco Lighting Inc., who is the largest most respected lighting company in the United States, is installing these lights. They do about 75% of the lighting fixtures in this country. The Light Structure Green is a new product that reduces spillage and maintains light focus on the field. If they weren't able to get the variance they would be eliminated fiom the NCAA Division 3 regional baseball. The university did a light meter study around the area; it shows 54 foot candles on the edge of their field, stepping onto the track the reading was down to 10.4 foot candles, moving across to the practice field it is down to 0.5 foot candles. They also took the light levels on Taft Ave, and found regular streetlights reflect 0,7 down to 0.1 foot candles. The University is prepared to perform the following during events: ask that music is not played during practices, turning off some of the lights during cleaning of the facility after the games and installing mature trees along the practice field. Mr. Penney asked if there is a requirement by Division 3 that light fixtures have to be a certain height. Mr. Sonnleituer said there is no height.requirement; the problem is that if the lights on the baseball field were placed at 45 ft. it would be unsafe to play under, Mr, Wilusz wanted to clarify that they could put the lights at 45 ft but the University wouldn't put them at 45ft. Board of Appeals Minutes -4- March 22, 2006 Mr. Sonnleitner stated he couldn't commission the expense to be placed at 45 ft.; it would require more poles and for them to be shining horizontally or even up in the air for view of fly balls. Mr. Wilusz asked if Musco provide any guarantee to adjust the lights. Mr. Sonnleitner stated they do guarantee the light and they are also entering a maintenance contract with them. Each year they will come back look at the lighting pattern and change any burned out lamps. Mr. Wilusz and Mr. Cornell stated for the record they were in attendance at the neighborhood meeting that was held on March 20, 2006 by the University on the lighting. Mr. Cornell asked if the cover over the lights are the same as what is installed at the football field. Mr. Sonnleitner stated there are shields on the football stadium lights but they are not the exact shields. Mr. Cornell then asked ifthe football field would illuminate more light than what the ball fields would, as far as horizontal light expanded out the sides. AI Ackerman, Athletic Director UW-Oshkosh, 800 Algoma Blvd Mr. Ackerman discussed how the football field and soccer/track field only has 4 light poles, with the lights shinning out onto the fields. Softball/baseball fields have a lot more poles, each pole is lighting a much smaller area; which will have less spillage and with the new guards on the lights there will be even less spillage. Ms. Hentz stated she was not at the neighborhood meeting held on March 20, 2006 and she wanted to thank the University for conducting that meeting, she wishes more people in the community would take neighbors into consideration. She also stated she liked the approach as far as working with the neighbors to address their concerns. Discussion was held on what the University is willing to do for the neighbors to reduce the noise and light spillage. Mr. Penney asked for more detail about a statement that was mentioned the lights would only be on during the game time situation, Mr. Sonnleitner stated the lights would be on roughly Yz hour before and after the games. Mr. Ackerman also stated during some of the practices there is a need for lights, he feels that practices should be included with games. Evon Van Ornum, 943 Taft Ave Ms. VanOrnum stated she has looked at the scheduling for the fields and they will be playing until 10:30 p.m. and was wondering if they are going to comply with the noise/lights ordinance of 11 :00 p.m. Ms. VanOrnum also wanted to know if anyone has checked to see what the height is at E.J. Schneider field is. Mr. Carpenter stated he checked with Mr. Wenig who is in charge of the Oshkosh Recreation Department and he states in his opinion the lights for baseball need to be higher than for softball and this would be constant with EJ. Schneider and the softball fields. Discussion was held about other softball and baseball diamonds in the area. Discussion was held about the noise and lighting issues and the concerns of environmental issues where the lights are to be installed. Mr. Ackerman stated the lights are installed by placing a cement pillar into the ground first and then the placing the light poles on top ofthat. Board of Appeals Minutes -5- March 22, 2006 Dan Van Ornum, 943 Taft Ave Mr. Van Ornum states he appreciates the compromises the University has agreed upon. If the diamond has to have lights he would rather not see them having the 45 ft. poles; the higher the better so they shine down to the ground not out into the neighborhood. Mr. Carpenter stated he did not attend the public hearing held on 3/20/06. He also stated the efforts of compromise that were made are excellent. The one thing he is bothered with is that they are looking beyond our scope; they are just looking at the height of the lights and if they don't approve the variance they can install as many lights as they want with spillage all over the place. Noise factor, clean-up time and drainage is not what they are looking at, the one thing he is hearing fiom all sides is the higher the better. Mr. Buck stated the conditions should only be for the baseball and softball field lights. Mr. Wilusz stated the process the University and the neighbors followed was very helpful, a great model to be used, Mr. Penney stated anything that will make Oshkosh a more pleasant and active place to draw the crowds should be encouraged. Ms. Hentz moved to approve with the following condition: 1. When cleaning the facility the bank of lights at the southwest corner is turned off. Mr. Carpenter stated that is directly related to the stadium, not the baseball fields. Mr. Cornell stated anything other than the height of the poles is immaterial of what the BOA is - making the decision on today. Ms. Hentz stated it was commented that the trees would directly relate to the spillage of the lights. Mr, Cornell stated he doesn't think it relates to the height of the poles. Mr. Buck stated the trees could be related to the light spillage, it also helps block vision of the taller lights fiom the backyards. Mr. Sonnleitner stated they are going to do this regardless. Mr, VanOrnum stated he was good with a handshake, Motion by Hentz for approval of a variance to permit the installation of light poles and fixtures with the following condition. 1. A series of mature trees be installed on the north side to help contaiu lights from the baseball and softball fields. Seconded by WiIusz. Motion carried 5-0 Finding of Facts: Mr, WiIusz stated it is a win win situation and it is a clearly a hardship. Mr. Carpenter stated it creates the lease variance necessary and beneficial to all. Ms. Hentz stated they have worked very diligently to try to minimize and/or reduce adverse impact on neighboring properties. STAFF REPORT BOARD OF APPEALS MARCH 22, 2006 ITEM II: 4:50 JOSSLYN STREET (UW-Oshkosh Sports Complex) GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND Stéven Arndt, applicant, University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, owner, request a variance to pennit the installation of light poles and fixtures varying fiom 50 to 80 feet tall on the baseball and softball fields (jfthe O~hkosh Sports Complex. Section 30-22 (B)(5) of the Oshkosh Municipal Code: R-5 Multiple Dwelling District limits structures to a maximum of 45 feet in height. The subject 36 acre site is zoned R-5 Multiple Dwelling District and has a Planned Development Overlay upon it. It is developed as the Oshkosh Sports Complex and contains Titan Stadium, JJ Keller Field, soccer fields and two ball fields. The Sports Complex is bordered by Josslyn Street on the west, Campbell Road on the ea~t, single- family homes to the north and Campbell Creek and the sewage plant are to the south, ANALYSIS In reviewing a variance request, the following questions should be addressed: When considering an area variance, the question of whether unnecessary hardship or practical difficulty exists is best explained as "whether compliance with the strict letter of the restrictions governing area, set backs, frontage, height, bulk or density would unreasonably prevent the owner from using the property for a permitted purpose or would render conformity with such restrictions unnecessarily burdensome." Are there any unusual or unique physical limitations of the property, which create a hardship? Will granting of a variance result in harm to the public interest? The applicant is requesting a variance fiom the height regulations of the R-5 Multiple Dwelling Zoning District, which limits the heights of structures to a maximum of 45', In general, they are requesting the ability to place light poles and fixtures at heights between 50' and 80' high at both the baseball and softball fields located at the southwestern and southeastern portions of the site, These light poles and fixtures specifically include the following: Baseball Field 5 light poles at 70' with 70 fixtures mounted at 70' 2 light poles at 80' with 19 fixtures mounted at 80' Softball Field 4 light poles at 60' with 15 fixtures mounted at 60' 2 light poles at 70' with 5 fixtures mounted at 50' & 11 fixtures mounted at 70' The ball field lighting is needed to allow the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh to host evening baseball and softball games and to participate in regional and championship play. STAFF REPORT ITEM II -2- BOARD OF APPEALS MARCH 22, 2006 ,. ,- The applicant contends that the proposed height levels are needed to get full coverage of the playing fields. They state in their application that lighting installed at a maximum of 45' would increase the horizontal orientation of the lights, thereby increasing the light spillage beyond the playing fields. Additionally, lowering the lights will require an increased in the number of poles and fixtures that will be more intensive in a site coverage aspect. These items lead staff to believe that the installation of taller poles and fixtures will not result in harm to the public interest and that the installation of code compliant fixtures may be detrimental. The applicant states that the operation of the lights would take place only during scheduled events and that the types of fIXtures proposed were specifically chosen to be the least intrusive possible. The applicant states that the chosen lighting, called Light Structure Green are designed specifically to reduce off site light spillage over 50% over previous industry lights of their nature. By using this product the applicant hopes to address keeping lights on the fields rather than on surrounding areas, reduce light fiom shining upwards, and be an aesthetically pleasing design. Staff feels that the applicant has chosen a product to help alleviate issues associated with the taller fixtures and poles. The applicant also contends that the site itself is unique and unusual as the area has been developed as a sports complex with multiple uses that are held outdoors in the evening and although it is zoned R-5PD it is part of the University campus, which is a permitted use. Staff agrees that the campus throughout the city is predominately located within the R-5 District and in many cases has heights exceeding the 45'. The continued operation of the University could be considered practically difficult if all regulations of the R-5 District were strictly enforced as the use is institutional and much more intensive. The applicant will be holding a neighborhood informational meeting on March 20, 2006 to inform the neighbors of the proposal (attached please find a meeting announcement). Feedback and/or results of this meeting will be presented at the meeting. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the variance to permit the installation of light poles and fixtures varying from 50 to 80 feet tall at the baseball and softball fields of the Oshkosh Sports Complex.

The burden of proving an unnecessary hardship rests upon the applicant. The attached sheet provides infoffilation on what constitutes a hardship. (Attach additional sheets, if necessary, to provide the infonDation requested. Additional information may be requested as needed.) 1. Explain your proposed plans and why you are requesting a variance: The University of Wisconsin Oshkosh wishes to install sports lighting on the baseball and softball i fields located at the Oshkosh Sports Complex, 450 Josslyn Street; Oshkosh WI, The project. " requires the installation oflight poles that vary fiom 50' up to 80' tall. This facility lies in an R-5 PUD zoning district with a height restriction of 45'. The university is requesting a variance fiom the 45' limitation so that the lights can be installed at the proper mounting height to get full coverage ofthe fields. 2. Describe how the variance would not have an adverse effect on surrounding properties: The university plans on installing an environmentally fiiendly lighting system fiom Musco Lighting Inc. called Light-Structure Green, According to the manufactures literature, "Advancements in the reflector design reduce offsite spill light by 50% over our previous, industry -leading light control system." The superior light control provided by this product addresses three areas of concern: * Neighbors: Light-Structure Green custom fits light onto the fiêld, keeping the light out of neighbors windows. . * Sky glow: The reflector reduces upward light, protecting the beauty of the dark skies. * Aesthetics: Light -Structure Green's structural design and light clarity make the system aesthetically pleasing. In addition, the operation of these lighting systems .will be computer controlled and will only be scheduled when the fields are in use. ~~~ì.ð\~ 3. Describe the special conditions that apply to your lot or structure that do not apply to surrounding lots or structures: Surrounding lots are primarily rešidential. This subject property is zoned R-5 PUD. The Oshkosh .Sports Complex consi~t~ .of 36 acres ofland that are designated for use by the university for athletic purposes. Other facIlItIes on the property include the Titan Stadium and the J,J, Keller Field, both of which are served by sports lighting. 4. Describe the hardship that would result if your variance were not granted: The University of Wisconsin Oshkosh would not be able to host evening baseball or softball games. This would effectively eliminate UW Oshkosh as a potential site for regional or championship play. Lighting could be installed at the 45' height limitation, however, this would increase the horizontal orientation of lights and would actually increase the amount of light spillage beyond the limits of the subject field. The higher the lights are located, the more vertical the lighting becomes, and the greater the ability to focus the light on the field. In addition, installing the lights at the 45' limitation would reqlÙre more fixtures and poles, at a greater expense. The fields would also be substandard in that the light fixtures would shine into the players eyes.
