RE: Approve Rezoning of Properties at 1406 and 1407 Grand Street from M-2 Central
Industrial to R-2 Two Family Residence (Plan Commission recommends denial)
BACKGROUND
The applicants are requesting to change the zoning of their two industrially zoned properties from
industrial to residential in order to remove their nonconforming use statuses that will make it easier to
sell the properties as many financial institutions will not provide mortgages for nonconforming uses.
The issue is that the City's Comprehensive Plan identifies the appropriate land use in the area to be
industrial and thus the zone change would be inconsistent with the Plan and run contrary to the
requirements of the State Statutes that actions taken be consistent with Comprehensive Plans (Wis.
Stats 66.1001 (3)(k))
The two subject properties are the only two residential properties located in these two blocks that
contain mainly light industrial type uses and storage. The area has been zoned industrial since at least
the mid 1960's which means the properties have been nonconforming uses for a minimum of 45 years
if not longer. One of the properties is owner occupied and both have been in the same ownership for a
number of years. The area to the south of the subject properties across E. Custer Avenue is residential.
This zone change request was the subject of a workshop with the Plan Commission on November 15,
2011 to discuss the appropriateness of the Comprehensive Plan's industrial land use recommendation
for the area and to determine if further study of the area was warranted relative to the long-term land
use situation. The Plan Commission felt that further study of the area would be beneficial and staff has
started moving forward in that regard with the hopes of having a neighborhood meeting with the
property owners sometime in February.
ANALYSIS
Since the City's Comprehensive Plan recommends the subject area to be industrial, a zone change to
residential would be an action inconsistent with the Plan and run contrary to the State's Smart Growth
law requiring actions to be consistent with adopted local master plans. As was discussed at the Plan
Commission's workshop,the appropriate course of action would be to amend the Comprehensive Plan
and follow that up with a zone change to the appropriate land use classification. The appropriate
procedure would be to analyze the two block subject area to determine if it should be residential or
industrial not a combination of both land uses due to the incompatible nature of residential and
industrial in such close proximity. The City needs to inventory the uses in the area and ascertain from
the affected property owners the long term land use goals for their parcels. After completion of the
inventory, the City can then determine if the land use map needs to change and/or the zoning
classification. Staff is fully intending on completing the inventory over the next quarter to determine if
the Comprehensive Plan's recommendation is the best for this area and taking action without the
necessary research would be premature and poor planning.
FISCAL IMPACT
None anticipated.
RECOMMENDATION
The Plan Commission denied this request at its December 20, 2011 meeting.
Approved,
City Manager
ITEM: ZONE CHANGE 1406 & 1407 GRAND STREET FROM M-2 CENTRAL
INDUSTRIAL TO R-2 TWO FAMILY RESIDENCE DISTRICT
Plan Commission meeting of December 20, 2011
GENERAL INFORMATION
Applicant: LeRoy and Lola Schroeder, Helen Williams
Property Owners: Same
Action(s) Requested:
Rezone two residential properties from manufacturing (M-2 Central Industrial) to residential (R-2 Two
Family Residence).
Applicable Ordinance Provisions:
The Zoning Ordinance does not establish criteria relative to appropriateness of changing zoning from
one classification to another but relies on the Comprehensive Plan and good planning principles.
Property Location and Background Information:
This zone change request was the subject of a workshop with the Plan Commission on November 15,
2011 (see attached memo) to discuss the Comprehensive Plan's land use recommendation for the area,
which is industrial.
The two subject properties are the only two residential properties located in these two blocks that
contain mainly light industrial type uses and storage. The area has been zoned industrial since at least
the mid 1960's which means the properties have been nonconforming uses for a minimum of 45 years
if not longer. One of the properties is owner occupied and both have been in the same ownership for a
number of years.
The area to the south of the subject properties is residential.

ANALYSIS
The City's 2005 Comprehensive Plan recommends the subject area to be industrial and thus a zone
change to residential would be an action inconsistent with the Plan and run contrary to the State's
Smart Growth law requiring actions to be consistent with adopted local master plans.
As was discussed at the Plan Commission workshop, the appropriate course of action would be to
amend the Comprehensive Plan and follow that up with a zone change to the appropriate land use
classification. At that point, the community would have taken the time to analyze the land use
situation and determine what the best land use is for the area into the future. In this case, because the
recommended land use for the area is industrial, staff cannot support a zone change to residential
because the presence of the residential land use has impacts on the adjacent industrial uses such as
additional setbacks and/or nuisance concerns.
Staff's opinion is that the two block subject area has to be analyzed and determined to be residential or
industrial not a combination of both land uses due to the incompatible nature of residential and
industrial in such close proximity. To do this the City needs to inventory the uses in the area, and find
out from the affected property owners what their long term land use goals for their properties. The
City can then determine if the land use map needs to change and/or the zoning. Taking any other
action without first having the area-wide land use discussion would be premature and poor planning.
Staff also said at the workshop that the land use situation in these two blocks should be further looked
at to determine if the Comprehensive Plan's recommendation is the best for this area and staff was
fully intending on doing this planning work over the next quarter.
RECOMMENDATION
Based on the Comprehensive Plan's industrial land use recommendation for the area, staff is
recommending denial of the zone change from M-2 Central Industrial to R-2 Two Family Residence
District.
The Plan Commission denied the zone change as requested. The following is the Plan Commission's
discussion on this item.
Mr. Burich presented the item and reviewed the site and surrounding area as well as the current zoning
classifications and land use in said area. He stated that the area had been zoned M-2 Central Industrial
District since the 1960's although the two lots requesting the zone change had been utilized for
residential use prior to that time. He reviewed the land use plan from the City's Comprehensive Plan
which recommended the area for industrial use. He also explained how the Comprehensive Plan was
developed and implemented and the reasoning that requires City actions to be consistent with this plan.
The existing land use on these two parcels does not dictate appropriate land use for the area and the
residential uses are considered to be legal nonconforming uses. He explained the land use impacts of
manufacturing and residential uses in such close proximity which was also discussed at the workshop
in November. He further explained the necessity to discuss long range land use plans with adjacent
property owners and that staff would be supportive of a zone change in this area if the community
decides that it is an appropriate land use. Staff is currently recommending denial of this request at this
Item-Zone change 1406&1407 Grand St 2
point as the appropriate research has yet to be done and the decision to change zoning classifications
for these parcels would be premature.
Mr. Bowen questioned if the M-2 zoning classification was originally on this area or if it was changed
to it at some point in time.
Mr. Burich responded that the zoning maps from 1965 shows the area as M-2 since that time.
Mr. Thorns commented that the houses had existed on these sites for 90 years and he assumed that the
zoning designation was applied with the intent that the parcels would eventually be sold and
redeveloped as industrial uses.
Mr. Burich indicated that the zoning classification was appropriate at that time as future land use was
probably considered to be manufacturing for those parcels.
Mr. Cummings stated that some of the manufacturing uses in that area have either shut down
completely or were declining since then.
Mr. McHugh questioned if there was any consequences to delaying the process of the zone change.
Mr. Burich replied that the only issue was the property owner was probably experiencing difficulty
marketing the parcel due to its zoning classification.
Mr. McHugh inquired if the City was planning on meeting with the adjacent property owners to
discuss the issue.
Mr. Nollenberger questioned how long the process would take.
Mr. Burich indicated that staff was intending to meet with the property owners and the issue could be
undertaken within the next few months.
Mr. Nollenberger commented that it was not fair to the property owners that the City zoned their
residential parcels M-2 back in the 1960's.
Mr. Burich stated that the City zoned the area according to the intended land use for the area, which he
felt was forward thinking for the community.
Mr. Bowen questioned if any other community's Comprehensive Plan has a transitional area included
in it as the City of Oshkosh does not have such areas in their plan.
Mr. Burich responded that the City has both a 10 and 20 year land use plan included in its
Comprehensive Plan which is akin to a transitional designation.
Mr. Bowen stated that he was looking at areas in the Plan that would be considered intermediate as far
as land use.
Mr. Buck responded that the City does have specific zoning classifications that allow mixed uses such
as the Mixed Downtown, as well as C-1 Neighborhood Business District and C-3 Central Commercial
District. These zoning designations allow multiple uses with the area however there is not such a
classification with industrial uses. The change in the lending industry has created the issues property
owners are currently experiencing with the sale of property and its zoning designation and use. The
Item-Zone change 1406&1407 Grand St 3
zoning classifications in the City were reviewed in 2005 when the Comprehensive Plan was developed
and this area was still determined to be appropriate for industrial use at that time.
Mr. Burich added that we need to discuss future land use in this area prior to making any zone changes
and the zoning designation needs to comply with the Comprehensive Plan at this time or amend the
recommended land use prior to the zone change approval.
Ms. Lohry commented that residential use seems to be primary in this area and suggested that the City
purchase the properties and redevelops the area into green space for community use.
Mr. Thoms inquired if this was the only situation like this in the city and if the city would be compiling
an inventory of property owners in this area.
Mr. Burich responded that there were other areas of the city with similar situations and stated that the
city has reviewed neighborhoods in the past and changed land use recommendations and zoning
classifications to be consistent with current land use patterns in the area. He further stated that an
inventory would be necessary of the property owners and their intended land uses as a zone change in
this area would not only affect the changed parcels but would impact the use of adjacent properties.
Mr. Cummings commented that the city would have to determine if there are any manufacturing uses
currently in the area or would any companies be interested in redeveloping the existing sites.
Mr. Burich stated that this is what needs to be discussed at a meeting with property owners in the area
prior to approving any zone changes.
Lola Schroeder, 378 N. Schroeder Road, Fremont, stated that she and her husband own the property at
1407 Grand Street and do not feel that their request should be denied due to the Comprehensive Plan's
land use recommendation. She further stated that it has been a rental property for the past 18 years and
maintaining the property has become a problem at their age. She felt that the recommended land use is
outdated and needs to be changed as manufacturing is not thriving in this area and the truck use of the
residential streets surrounding it is not appropriate. The current trucks are too large and there is no
convenient approach for the loading docks as well as there are unresolved drainage issues in the area
which maintenance has been performed on numerous times. She suggested the zoning could be
changed to C-3 to accommodate the multiple uses however she did not feel the request should be
denied. She felt that the Commission should be looking at the future of the area and spot zoning was
not illegal, unreasonable, or unconstitutional.
Lynn Resop, 1921 Beech Street, stated that he owned the property on the northwest corner of Broad
Street and Custer Avenue and a change in zoning for these parcels would make his business
surrounded by residential uses. He voiced his concerns with this change impacting his parcel by
making it a nonconforming use and explained the effort and money he had invested in the site.
Ms. Propp questioned what the use was of his property.
Mr. Resop responded that it was private use for cold storage and a workshop.
Mr.Nollenberger stated that he respected the recommendation from staff and he felt the neighborhood
planning effort was a good idea, however he felt the two parcels could be rezoned to R-2 now as
requested.
Item-Zone change 1406&1407 Grand St 4
Mr. Thorns suggested that the item be tabled until a meeting is held with the area property owners or
rezone the parcels to C-3 instead of R-2 as it would allow the sale of the property and would not affect
adjacent property owners negatively. He further commented that he was not sure if manufacturing was
an appropriate classification for this area.
Mr. Bowen stated that if C-3 was going to be the zoning classification, it would have to include the
entire block as changing just these two parcels would not be appropriate. He felt we should adhere to
the Comprehensive Plan and review the entire area before proceeding with any zone changes. The C-3
zoning classification was a good idea however it would have to encompass more than two parcels.
Mr. Hinz agreed with Mr. Bowen and stated that he did not want to see multiple zone changes in the
area and felt that the item should be tabled until further research could be completed.
Ms. Lohry commented that she felt the need to give the property owners a solution now and would
support the zone change to R-2.
Ms. Propp disagreed and stated that she did not feel that approving a zone change now would be
appropriate as this matter needed to be discussed with all the adjacent property owners prior to acting
on the request. She would like to see the matter move forward as soon as possible but felt that tabling
the request was a good idea or denying it until a meeting could be held.
Mr. McHugh commented that he felt a neighborhood meeting was essential in this case and doing
things piece meal was not a good idea.
Mr. Thorns stated that multiple changes to the zoning in the area were not a good idea and he felt the
request should be tabled until February.
Mr. Hinz questioned if the petitioner could withdraw the request at this time and resubmit it at a later
time.
Mr. Burich explained that the petitioner could withdraw the request or table it however when an item is
tabled it is usually only for one or two meetings. If the petitioner withdrew the request at this time to
give staff ample time to research the area, if staff determines that a land use amendment to the
Comprehensive Plan was appropriate, the zone change could still take place.
Mr. Cummings commented that we do not know what is happening in the area now and we need to
research the situation before making any decisions.
Mr. Hinz felt since staff was working on the matter, it would be beneficial to wait until the research
was completed.
Mr. Vajgrt felt that it would be best to deny the request rather than table it. If the manufacturing uses
were consulted in the area, a clearer picture could be obtained of the intended future land uses and the
manufacturing sites could benefit from a zone change as well if they are not planning to continue their
industrial uses.
Motion by Vajgrt to approve the zone change for 1406 & 1407 Grand Street from M-2 Central
Industrial to R-2 Two Family Residence District.
Seconded by Propp.
Motion by Nollenberger to lay over the request for a zone change for two months.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Plan Commission
FROM: Darryn Burich, Planning Director
DATE: November 15, 2011
RE: Potential Land Use Map Amendment Grand Street
The City has received rezoning interest from a residential property owner in an area zoned industrial
generally located at the corner of Grand Street and Custer Avenue. This area to the north of Custer
Avenue is predominately comprised of industrial uses with the exception of two residential single family
uses, which are non-conforming uses in the M-2 zoning district.
The Comprehensive Plan identifies the area as appropriate for industrial use and the current zoning is
consistent with the recommended land use. The residential property owner is trying to market the property
and nonconforming uses are difficult to finance so they would like the zoning changed to residential.
As the Comprehensive Plan clearly identifies this area as appropriate for industrial use any such zone
change request would result.in a negative recommendation based on the Comprehensive Plan. The only
way for there to be a positive staff recommendation on the zone change would be for the Plan Commission
to approve an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan from industrial to residential.
The purpose of this item is to obtain some preliminary feedback from the Plan Commission for a potential
land use map amendment and what additional information may be needed to consider such a request in the
future.

Reason to rezone: I 4-0 7 rc S4.
We request the properties at 1406 and 1407 Grand street be rezoned to R-2 because all the properties
to the south on Grand Street are zoned R-2. These are corner properties across from each other and
have been residential properties for more than 90 years. They are taxed residential but are zoned M-2.
These properties have been kept up and family owned for over 70 years. 1406 Grand street was
previously owned by Helen Williams' parents; and 1407 Grand street was previously owned by Lola
Schroeder's parents.
A new street was recently put in down Grand Street, along with sewer and sidewalk at an expense of
$8,795.17 to the Schroeder's and about$9,000.00 to the Williams'family. This year a new street was
put in down Custer Avenue, along with sidewalk at an expense estimated at$4,479.19 for the
Schroeder's and $3,914.55 for the Williams'family. Now the Schroeder's,who would like to sell their
property,find that M-2 zoning has a rebuilding stipulation that will affect the sale of their property.
If the property should be damaged more than 50%by fire,wind,etc.,the property owners would not be
allowed to rebuild. This will make it almost impossible to sell these properties and insurance companies
may not want to insure them. Lending companies will not give out loans to buyers who will not be
allowed to rebuild. Because of this we feel the properties should be rezoned to R-2.
How the proposed rezoning will meet the needs of the development:
The city shows Industrial as future land use for these properties, however,the factory to the west along
Custer Avenue has,for the most part,stood empty for many years. The building is an aging brick
building with roofing that blows off whenever there is a strong wind. It is now owned by Davis Painting
& Decorating Inc.
This year when we decided to sell 1407 Grand street I sent a letter to Davis Painting & Decorating Inc.to
see if they were interested in purchasing it. We did not hear from them. (I've included a copy of the
letter that was sent). Best Quality Tree Service is adjacent to 1406 Grand street. They have been trying
to sell their building for some time. I don't believe rezoning 1406 and 1407 Grand street to R-2 will have
any effect on future development in the city.

Regarding: Property at 1407 Grand street-corner of Grand St. and Custer Ave.
Because my husband and I are seriously interested in selling our property at this time; and your
company owns all the adjacent property to the West and to the North of our property at 1407 Grand
Street in Oshkosh,we are questioning whether you would be interested in purchasing it. The estimated
fair market value shown on the 2010 tax bill is$87,100. We are willing to sell the property for$75,000.
We would appreciate hearing from you bef re June 30. Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Lola K. Schroeder
