Re: Motor Vehicle Salvage Dealer License Application @ 4438 State Road 91
Dear Mr. Donner:
You recently dropped a copy of your Motor Vehicle Salvage Dealer Two Year License Application off for
zoning review and approval. Please be advised that zoning approval cannot be granted at this time.
Specifically, this is due to the subject property currently being zoned M-3 ETZ General Industrial
Extraterritorial District and the proposed junk yard use must be conditionally approved by the City of
Oshkosh Common Council.
The Conditional Use Permitting Process commences with the property owner filing an application for review
by the Joint Extraterritorial Zoning Committee. Included with this letter is a copy of the required application
form, which outlines specific requirements for review. The Joint Extraterritorial Zoning Committee will hold
a hearing on the application and make a recommendation of denial, approval, or approval with conditions to
the Common Council. The Common Council will then officially act to deny, approve, or approve with
conditions the conditional use permit.
If/when the Common Council approves the use at this location, zoning approval for the Motor Vehicle
Salvage Dealer Two Year License Application can be granted. City staff will sign the appropriate form
needed for your licensure through the Department of Transportation at that time.
Also, please be advised that if the conditional use is approved by the Common Council, it will lapse and
become void after one year unless substantial construction has been undertaken or the activity has
commenced in accordance with the permit. This may or may not affect your development timeline.
Regardless, we hope you and your development team will find this information to be useful in the future
when you commence planning and design efforts for the proposed development.
If you have any other needs or questions please feel free to contact me at your earliest convenience.
Respectfully,
Todd M. Muehrer
Zoning Administrator
