ANALYSIS
The petitioner is requesting approval of a Conditional Use Permit(CUP) to establish an art studio.
According to the applicant,the business (Birch Art Gallery and Classes) will include art classes and
Page 1
gallery. It will be solely operated by the owner/applicant. The business will be seasonal, open
April through November,Wednesday through Saturday. Art classes will be conducted 9-11 AM
with the gallery open 11:30 AM-4:30 PM. The classes are expected to have 6-8 students (ages 21
and over) with private lessons available upon request which include stained glass,jewelry,
lapidary, painting, printing, drawing and sculpture.
The application states that there will be no changes made to the site, other than updating the front
of the building with new paint,new signage and a picnic table on the grassed area to the northwest
of the building. The existing parking area on the lot has 10 stalls that can be used for customer
parking.
Staff is supportive of the CUP request and feels that the proposed art studio use is an appropriate
use for this site as it should have a relatively low impact on the surrounding area.
RECOMMENDATION/CONDITIONS
In its review and recommendation to the Common Council on an application for a Conditional Use
Permit, staff recommends the Plan Commission make the following findings based on the criteria
established by Chapter 30-382(F)(3):
(1) Is in harmony with the Comprehensive Plan.
(2) Would not result in a substantial or undue adverse impact on nearby property, the
character of the neighborhood, environmental factors, traffic factors, parking, public
improvements, public property or rights-of-way, or other matters affecting the public
health, safety, or general welfare.
(3) Maintains the desired consistency of land uses, land use intensities, and land use impacts
as related to the environs of the subject property.
(4) The conditional use is located in an area that will be adequately served by, and will not
impose an undue burden on, any of the improvements, facilities, utilities or services
provided by public or private agencies serving the subject property.
(5) The potential public benefits outweigh any potential adverse impacts of the proposed
conditional use, after taking into consideration the applicant's proposal and any
requirements recommended by the applicant to ameliorate such impacts.
Staff recommends approval of the proposed Conditional Use Permit for an art studio as proposed
with the findings listed above.

Short Narrative on Birch Art Gallery & Classes.
The current property is a closed Insurance business. Vacant building. At 1677 Oregon Street,
Oshkosh, WI 54902
A little about me. My name is Barbara Schneider, I recently retired from a Fond du Lac School District
after 22 years of teaching Art Classes. I have a valid, Wisconsin State Teaching License. I taught Art History-
Ancient & 20th Century, Basic art classes that incorporated: Ceramics, Sculpture, Drawing, Painting, Weaving,
and Printing. Also beginner classes to level 4 advanced in, Stained Glass & Jewelry. I retired for medical
reasons, I had gotten Cancer. So I had to leave. Then I healed from that and Chemotherapy and back to the
living. So time to live my dream, an art gallery and teaching art to adults form 21 - 91 years of age. All abilities
and disabilities.
Art for people that have been schooled at home, that may not have had art classes, disabled person
from all areas of abuse - men and women, Veterans, and many more. All abilities.
This business has been needed in the Oshkosh Community for a long time. I have bumped into people
and parents for over 25 years that have said they would love to have an Art School in the Community that
taught Skill building and expand or create hobbies from, not just a one night art class as some other
businesses do.
So Birch Art Gallery and Classes will meet that need. The Art Classes, will have 6-8 students, media
will be the more popular arts. Basic: Stained glass, jewelry, lapidary, painting, printing, drawing and sculpture.
Private lessons will be available upon request. The gallery will show off and sell items made in classes and art
made by local artists only. (we have high standards on what is put in gallery).
I have knowledge of the K-12 Wisconsin state curriculum. I helped rewrite is several times during my
teaching career.
The Business will be part time, a seasonal business, open April to November, 9-11 am will be art
classes, 11:30 -4:30 the gallery will be open. Wednesday through Saturday. I will be the only employee. My
family members are helpers with yard and grounds.
So the impact on surrounding buildings and homes will be slight to none. Laughing will be good for
everyone there and heard over to the next door buildings. There will be planters of flower and birch stalks
around building. The front of building will be updated with paint and a new signage.
Thank you for your time on this, Barbara J. Schneider.
I hope you, can come take art classes, I would enjoy helping you release your inner child
by creative means. "You deserve a creative break at Birch Art Gallery & Classes".
(Last, but not least, I just had lung cancer surgery on Feb, 11 th 2019. healing well and ready to start the
business asap)
