ITEM 1: 3300 N MAIN STREET
GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND
Scott Krueger-petitioner, Wisconsin Public Service Corp.-owner requests the following
variance to permit a nonresidential accessory structure in the front yard:
Description Code Reference Required Propose
Accessory structure location 30-71(C)(2) Side or Rear Yard Front Yard
The subject 23.84 acre (approximately 1,038,470 square feet) property is zoned Heavy
Industrial (HI). The rectangular-shaped parcel is a double-fronted, interior lot located on
the east side of N. Main Street and the west side of Moser Street in the City's North
Industrial Park. The property is developed with a 72,300 square feet single-story
commercial building and associated off-street parking and loading facilities. Vehicular
access to the parcel occurs via two curb cuts located on N. Main Street. Adjacent land
uses to the subject parcel include industrial in all directions as well as infrastructure to
the west(i.e. regional storm water facilities) and undeveloped agricultural to the east.
ANALYSIS
In reviewing a variance request,the following questions should be addressed:
When considering an area variance, the question of whether unnecessary
hardship or practical difficulty exists is best explained as "whether
compliance with the strict letter of the restrictions governing area, set
backs, frontage, height, bulk or density would unreasonably prevent
the owner from using the property for a permitted purpose or would
render conformity with such restrictions unnecessarily burdensome."
Are there any unusual or unique physical limitations of the property which
create a hardship?
Will granting of a variance result in harm to the public interest?
The applicants are proposing to construct a new 60'x100' building on the east side of the
parcel (see attached site plan). The building will be 16' high and set back nearly 600 feet
from both N. Main Street and Moser Street. The building will be used for equipment
storage according to the submitted narrative. A variance is required because the
purposed accessory structure placement is in the Moser Street front yard due to the lot
being double-fronted.
The double-fronted lot is a unique physical property circumstance and creates a
justifiable hardship in this instance. The property has historically developed with N.
Main Street serving as the traditional front yard and the east/Moser Street side of the
property as the practical rear yard. Without a variance the majority of the parcel to the
east will continue to be undevelopable for accessory land uses because of the ordinance

defined double-frontage. This would unreasonably prevent the owner from using the
property for a permitted accessory land use and be unnecessarily burdensome.
Regarding alternative placement the side yards currently have access drives and/or
parking facilities developed. In addition to disturbing these existing improvements,
siting the proposed building in these areas would have more ofmvisual impact mn the
adjacent properties and public right-of-way than the proposed placement on the east
aide of the property. Furthermore, the development has existing outdoor storage of
materials bnthe vicinity and further expansion otstorage uses into the side yard would
not be advantageous for practical user purposes on-site nor aesthetically.
Overall, there will beno harm to the public interest as the subject property does not
have any vehicular access from Moser Street and a heavily-treed visual buffer surrounds
thed �
propose project area.
