DATE: April 4, 2018
RE: Amend Various Sections Of Chapter 30 Zoning Ordinance (Plan Commission
Recommends Approval)
BACKGROUND
The City of Oshkosh adopted a new zoning ordinance which went into effect on January 1, 2017.
Since the adoption of the ordinance, staff has noticed a number of code sections that should be
modified following further examination and discussion with the public and developers.
Staff has identified 26 code provisions that are being requested to improve implementation of
the new Zoning Ordinance. Staff is also anticipating that as it continues to implement the new
Zoning Ordinance that other amendments will be required and will likely propose such
changes quarterly or as needed.
ANALYSIS
Staff proposes amendments to the Zoning Ordinance code sections outlined in the attached
Plan Commission's Staff report. Staff feels that the proposed amendments to the Zoning
Ordinance will solve some problems that have been identified and ultimately strengthen the
Code.
The most significant proposed changes are those related to eliminating various Conditional
Use Permit (CUP) uses from the Suburban Mixed Use and Urban Mixed Use Districts. These
are reactive changes due to the recent statute enactments that essentially requires the granting
of a CUP if the applicant agrees to the conditions imposed by the municipality. Prior to the
statute change, the City's existing Ordinance was strong enough to permit the denial of a CUP
if it was found to be a detriment to the area. Staff is evaluating what changes need to be made
to the existing CUP requirements. Once the new CUP Ordinance is in place, it will evaluate
and propose to add back various CUP uses to the zoning districts.
City Hall, 215 Church Avenue P.O. Box 1130 Oshkosh, WI 54903-1130 920.236.5000 http://www.ci.oshkosh.wi.us
FISCAL IMPACT
Most of the changes have little or no fiscal impact on city operations with the exception of the
proposed changes to the fees (Section 30-414) which includes a change to permit the assessment
of a service fee related to zoning ordinance enforcement which parallels that of the service fees
assessed by Inspections.
RECOMMENDATION
The Plan Commission recommended approval of zoning text amendments at its April 3, 2018
meeting.

amendments to the Oshkosh Zoning Ordinance.

Section 30-380 of the Zoning Ordinance establishes the ability of the Common Council, on its own
motion or on petition after first submitting the proposal to the City Plan Commission, to amend,

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The City of Oshkosh adopted a new zoning ordinance which went into effect on January 1, 2017.

modified following further examination and, discussion with the public and developers.
ANALYSIS
Staff proposes amendments to the following Zoning Ordinance code sections:

This code change is to provide clarification on which land use impound lots and contractor yards
fall under.
Section 30-87 (L) regarding temporary shelter structures

This change is the result of an oversight. Temporary shelter structures should be permitted as a
temporary use in all districts.

Modify land use table to add, delete, or amend various uses as identified in various zoning
districts.
Section 30-172 (F) regarding ground cover requirements

This addition to the Code is necessary to establish ground cover requirements for residential uses.

discussion, staff feels that this land use is appropriate as a conditional use in Heavy Industrial
districts.
Section 30-172 (M) regarding nonconforming driveways
Amend section to allow direct replacement of legal nonconforming driveways that are paved.

structures (71/2 feet).

UMU
Revise the maximum impervious surface ratio in Urban Mixed Use Districts to 75%.
Item -Text Amendments Zoning Ordinance
