TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Common Council
FROM: Darryn Burich
Director of Planning Services
DATE: April 3, 2014
RE: Approve Expansion of Existing Planned Development to Include Manufactured
Housing Sales and Outdoor Display at 3596 Stearns Drive (Plan Commission
Recommends Approval)
BACKGROUND
The 4.5 acre subject property is located on the City's northwest side, south of Fountain
Avenue and east of USH 45. The general area is characterized as mixed use commercial
and light industrial containing a mixture of older uses developed in the town and newer
development developed after annexation to the City. The subject property is the location of
the former Sunset Elementary School that was closed several years ago and sold to the
petitioner who now operates a contractor's yard on the site for which a CUP/PD was granted
in 2005. The petitioner subsequently received approval to develop a warehouse and
distribution center on the northern portion of the site in 2006. An original request to have
three model homes and a new entrance and parking area was laid over from the October 1,
2013 Plan Commission meeting so the applicant could provide needed information and the
petitioner subsequently altered the development proposal to include the display of only a
single model home.
ANALYSIS
The petitioner is requesting to further develop his property by adding manufactured homes
sales and display on the southern portion of his site. The proposal is to move an existing
outdoor storage fence to the east and pour a concrete pad where a model home will be
placed for display and sale. The operation plan is that a model home will rotate in and out of
the site as sold or replaced with a different model. The model home will not be hooked up to
utilities other than electrical service for lighting purposes. Staff feels that the addition of the
model home display and sales will not be detrimental to the area with the recommended
conditions of approval including the requirement to re -turf the gravel area that was formerly
outdoor storage surrounding the model homey place the model home on a concrete pad and
that a grading and drainage plan for the new development area be approved by the
Department of Public Works. The Plan Commission added a recommended condition that
additional landscaping be placed in the vicinity of the model home. Should the developer
desire to expand the use at a later date, an amendment would be necessary through the
planned development process.
FISCAL IMPACT
None anticipated other than the development value of the use being added to the property
tax roll.
RECOMMENDATION
The Plan Commission recommended approval of this request at its April 1, 2014 meeting.
Approved

changed the development proposal and is now requesting approval.
GENERAL INFORMATION
Petitioner /Owner: Dan Dowling
Action(s) Requested:

annexation to the City. The subject property is the location of the former Sunset Elementary School
property that was closed several years ago and sold by the school district to the current petitioner who
now operates a contractor's yard on the site for which a CUP/PD was granted in 2005 (Res 05 -257).

ANALYSIS
The petitioner is requesting to further develop his property by adding manufactured home sales and
display in the southern area of his property where the asphalt and gravel fenced in (fence has been
temporarily removed) contractor yard is currently located. The proposal is to move the fenced -in
storage area to the east in line with the east building facade and pour a concrete pad in the gravel
portion of storage area and place one manufactured home on the pad. Customers would park in the
existing parking lot to the north and access the model home through the existing building and offices.
The business operation is that model homes will rotate in and out of the site as they are sold or if there
is no interest in a particular model after about a 6 month time frame it will be replaced with a different
model. The homes will not be hooked up to utilities other than electrical for lighting purposes. The
petitioner is currently working with Wisconsin Homes Inc. (www.wisconsinhomesinc.com), the
manufacturer of the model homes that will be placed on the site. Included with the staff report is a
picture of the current model that will be placed on the site. The proposed development is similar in .
concept to Design Homes in Fond du Lac that is located proximate to US 41 that has been in operation
for about 20 years with the noted exception that this proposal is less intensive with there being only
one home being proposed at this time. This differs quite significantly from the previous proposal that
the Plan Commission laid over that identified three models being created on a "cul de sac" style road to
create the feeling of a small subdivision.
The applicant has significantly scaled back his development plans due in part to the high up front start
up costs with the previous three model homes, street, and site improvement costs with no real idea as
to how successful the operation will be so he would now like to start with one model home and
hopefully come back in the future to expand the site as previously proposed.
Putting one model home in the previous outdoor storage area would not seem to be detrimental to the
area. The Plan Commission previously had concerns regarding landscaping but the proposal has now
changed enough that it would be appropriate to consider the existing landscaping that is already in
place along the front property line that includes a significant amount of deciduous and evergreen trees
where the model home will be displayed in a gap in that landscaping. A condition being recommended
is to re -turf the gravel area around the model. home to improve the look overall look of the site.
Given the mixed use nature of development in this area, staff does not feel the proposed use will be
detrimental to existing or planned uses in the area if conditions are in place to address aforementioned
concerns. Furthermore, the elimination of part of the outdoor storage yard in favor of the new
development should improve the overall look of the site from adjacent properties and the road. Should
the developer be successful and want to expand the site for additional model home sales, an
amendment will have to be granted through the planned development process.

RECOMMENDATION /CONDITIONS
Staff recommends a finding that the Development Plan is in keeping with the standards of the Planned
Development Overlay District, Section 30 -33 of the Zoning Ordinance, and the CUP standards,
Section 30 -11 of the Zoning Ordinance and be granted with the following conditions:
1) Grading and drainage approval by the Department of Public Works for the new development
area.
2) Model home to be placed on hard surfaced concrete pad to be approved by the Inspections
Division.
3) Former gravel storage yard area to be re- turfed with grass.
4) Model home to be placed in full contact with the pad.
The Plan Commission approved of the planned development as requested with conditions noted. The
following is the Plan Commission's discussion on this item.
Mr. Buck presented the item, which originally came before the Plan Commission in 2013, requesting
approval for display of three model homes which was subsequently laid over by the Commission for
the submission of landscaping plans. He reviewed the site and surrounding area as well as the zoning
classifications and land uses in the area. He also reviewed the original site plan and the revised version
as well as photos of the subject site. The photos depicted the landscaping currently existing on the site
and Mr. Buck discussed how the site would function with the new operation. He also discussed that
the outdoor storage area would be less visible from the highway with this reconfigured plan and
reviewed elevations for the model home and a photo of the home to be displayed initially. He also
reviewed the conditions recommended for this request.
Mr. Borsuk inquired if there was any information regarding the building materials for the fencing.
Mr. Buck indicated that the petitioner was proposing to use the existing solid cedar fence that was
currently on the site.
Mr. Borsuk questioned if the petitioner proposed to install any landscaping around the model home.
Mr.. Buck responded negatively and stated that there was existing landscaping on the site but that the
conditions were requiring that the gravel storage yard area being redeveloped be re- turfed with grass.
Ms. Propp inquired if there would be grass area around the model home.
Mr. Buck responded affirmatively.
Mr. Cummings questioned if there was any information submitted regarding signage for the site.
Mr. Buck replied that signage had not been discussed and any proposed signage for the site would be
required to meet code standards for the C -2 district.
Item -Pb Home Sales & Display/3596 Stearns 3
Mr. Bowen asked to confirm that customers will be accessing the existing parking lot for the site and
going through the building to access the model home area and that they would not be parking on
Stearns Drive to view the home.
Mr. Buck responded affirmatively and stated that there would be no parking on Stearns.Drive for that
purpose.
Dan Dowling, 3596 Stearns Drive, stated that he was present for any questions.
Mr. Borsuk inquired if current access to the enclosed outdoor storage yard would be gated.
Mr. Dowling responded affirmatively and stated that the storage area is and would remain fully
enclosed.
Mr. Borsuk questioned if the petitioner would have any objections to have additional landscaping
placed around the model home.
Mr. Dowling responded that he would not object.
Mr. Borsuk requested to add an additional condition to this request to require landscaping to be
installed around the model home display to the satisfaction of the Community Development
Department.
Motion by Borsuk to approve the planned development to permit the proposed manufactured
home sales and display at 3596 Stearns Drive with the following conditions:
1) Grading and drainage approval by the Department of Public Works for the new development
area.
2) Model home to be placed on hard surfaced concrete pad to be approved by the Inspections
Division.
3) Former gravel storage yard area to be re- turfed with grass.
4) Model home to be placed in full contact with the pad.
5) Additional landscaping is provided around model home with approval of the Department of
Community Development.
Seconded by Bowen. Motion carried 7-0.
