Dear Mr. Lindemann:
As a follow up to my letter of July 24, 2006 to Mr. Loren Schuhart, please be advised that since it
appears the use of the former T &J Manufacturing facilities has been converted from
manufacturing, storage and warehousing activities to a marina operation, the establishment of this
use and the conversion activity will require the following approvals by the Department of
Community Development:
1) As noted in the July 24 letter, the conversion of the prior manufacturing use to the
marina use will, under Section 66.1333(6)(e) of the Wisconsin State Statute, require a
review by the City of Oshkosh Redevelopment Authority, and review and approval of this
change by the Common Council. This review is required due to the location of the
subject property within the City's adopted South Shore Redevelopment Project Area.
In order to provide for this review we will require a site inspection of the premises and the
submittal of a site plan for the property to show how the use and operations will be
conducted in this area.
2) Under the City's Zoning Ordinance, when a change of use is proposed, the City's Planning
Service Division will need to evaluate the request relative to the establishment of the new
occupancy (i.e., the marina operation).
As with the review conducted under item 1), a site inspection will also be required in this
regard.
3) Changes of use and building alterations are required to be performed in compliance with
the State of Wisconsin Building & HVAC Code, Plumbing Code and Electric Code. At
minimum, a code review performed by a Wisconsin Registered Architect or Engineer is
needed determine code compliance. This review will assist in determining what must be
included in the Plans that must be submitted for review and approval for the conversion to
this new use.

Dear Mr. Schuhart:
In regard to the attached letter dated July 10, 2006, that was forwarded to the Common
Council relative to a petition for a liquor license that would be utilized in a proposed yacht
club to be developed at 102 West 5'h Avenue, please be advised that the conversion of the
structure to a yacht club use will require a review by the Redevelopment Authority of the
City of Oshkosh (RDA), and review and approval by the Common Council.
This review is required under Section 66.1333 (6)(e) of the Wisconsin State Statute, which
relates to the location of the property in the City's South Shore Redevelopment Area, and
the proposal to construct/renovate the subject property for the proposed yacht club use.
The RDA will review the proposal in order to determine whether the yacht club use and the
proposed construction is consistent with the South Shore Redevelopment Area Plan.
In order to proceed with the review, a site plan will need to be prepared that shows how the
overall property /buildings will be utilized, where required parking will be provided, and where
improvements are planned or have been made. It would also be helpful if you can schedule
a time for a staff visit/inspection of the site.
Please contact either myself or Planning Director Darryn Burich at 920.236.5055 to arrange
for this visit/inspection. We would also be happy to meet with you in regard to the review
process and to answer any questions you may have.
Sincerely,
