DATE: May 9, 2019
RE: Approve Zone Change from Institutional (I) to Institutional District with a
Planned Development Overlay (I -PD) at 913 Nebraska Street (Plan Commission
Recommends Approval)
BACKGROUND
The subject area consists of one parcel, approximately 2.25 acres in size, with frontage along W.
9th Avenue, Nebraska Street and W. 10th Avenue. The subject area is occupied by a church,
school and gymnasium with a total square footage of approximately 40,000 square feet. The
surrounding area consists of primarily residential uses to the north, east and south and
commercial uses to the west. The 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan recommends Center City
use for the subject area.
ANALYSIS
The applicant is proposing a two-story school infill addition between the existing school and
gymnasium as well as modifications to the east and south entrances. The school addition will
have a total footprint of 6,280 sq. ft. and is needed to expand school classrooms along with
daycare uses. The east entrance addition will be 646 sq. ft. in area. The project also includes
new entrance canopies on the east and south sides as well as a 58 sq. ft. bump out at the southeast
corner of the building and a new dumpster enclosure with paved access from W. 10th Avenue
on the west side of the existing gymnasium. The property does not include a parking lot. On -
street and off-site parking areas will continue to be utilized for the site.
The applicant is requesting a Base Standard Modification (BSM) to reduce the front yard setback
(east) to 2.3' to allow for the proposed canopy, where code requires a 30' setback and the existing
building has an approximate 6' setback. They are also requesting a BSM to reduce the street side
setback (south) setback to 1.32' to allow for the proposed addition with entrance canopy, where
code requires a 25' setback and the existing building has an approximate 22' setback. In order
to accommodate the requested setback reductions the property will need to be rezoned to
include a Planned Development Overlay. Staff supports the zone change request to include the
City Hall, 215 Church Avenue P.O. Box 1 130 Oshkosh, WI 54903-1130 920.236.5000 http://www.ci.oshkosh.wi.us
Planned Development Overlay as it will provided an opportunity to accommodate additional
needs for the site as well as the unique layout of the property.
FISCAL IMPACT
Changing the zoning as requested shouldn't result in any additional city fiscal impact as the
actions will help facilitate infill development on an already served central city site. The property
is and will remain tax exempt.
RECOMMENDATION
The Plan Commission recommended approval of the zone change with conditions at its May 7,
2019 meeting.
Respectfully Submitted,

OVERLAY (I -PD), APPROVAL OF A GENERAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN AND
SPECIFIC IMPLEMENTATION PLAN FOR BUILDING ADDITIONS AT 913
NEBRASKA STREET
Plan Commission meeting of May 7, 2019.
GENERAL INFORMATION
Applicant: Eric Drazowski - Excel Engineering
Property Owner: Grace Lutheran Church
Action(s) Requested:
The applicant requests a zone change from the existing Institutional District (I) to Institutional
District with a Planned Development Overlay (I -PD). The applicant also requests approval of a
General Development Plan and Specific Implementation Plan to allow for building additions.
Applicable Ordinance Provisions:

from one classification to another but relies on the Comprehensive Plan and good planning
principles. Planned Development standards are found in Section 30-387 of the Zoning Ordinance.
Property Location and Background Information:
The subject area consists of one parcel, approximately 2.25 acres in size, with frontage along W. 911,
Avenue, Nebraska Street and W. 101h Avenue. The subject area is occupied by a church, school
and gymnasium with a total square footage of approximately 40,000 square feet. The

ANALYSIS
Use/Site Design/Access
The applicant is proposing a two-story school infill addition between the existing school and
gymnasium as well as modifications to the east and south entrances. The school addition will
have a total footprint of 6,280 sq. ft. and is needed to expand school classrooms along with
daycare uses. The east entrance addition will be 646 sq. ft. in area. The project also includes new
entrance canopies on the east and south sides as well as a 58 sq. ft. bump out at the southeast
corner of the building and a new dumpster enclosure with paved access from W. 10f Ave. on the
west side of the existing gymnasium. The property does not include a parking lot. On -street and
off-site parking areas will continue to be utilized for the site.
The applicant is requesting a Base Standard Modification (BSM) to reduce the front yard setback
(east) to 2.3' to allow for the proposed canopy, where code requires a 30' setback and the existing
building has an approximate 6' setback. They are also requesting a BSM to reduce the street side
setback (south) setback to 1.32' to allow for the proposed addition with entrance canopy, where
code requires a 25' setback and the existing building has an approximate 22' setback. In order to
accommodate the requested setback reductions the property will need to be rezoned to include a
Planned Development Overlay. Staff supports the zone change request to include the Planned
Development as it will provided an opportunity to accommodate additional needs for the site as
well as the unique layout of the property. Staff is in support of the requested BSM for the same
reasons as stated above.
According to the applicant, the setback reductions for the east and south entrances are necessary
to maintain the internal layout, while also providing columns/canopies to protect visitors from
the elements. A mixture of shrubs will be provided around the additions to mitigate the impact
of the setback reductions. Additionally, the canopies and columns should serve to enhance the
appearance of the entrance.
The site currently consists of 60.3% impervious surfaces, slightly exceeding the maximum of 60%
impervious for the Institutional (I) district. The proposed additions will result in an additional
3,500 sq. ft. of impervious surface area for a total of 63.9% impervious. A BSM is required to
further exceed the maximum of 60%. Staff is supportive of the SSM as the site is still only slightly
exceeding the maximum and is consistent with the higher impervious surface ratios found on
neighboring nonresidential properties in the surrounding area.
Storm Water Management/Utilities
Code compliant storm water management plans have not been provided. The applicant has been
made aware of the Department of Public Works requirements. Finalized storm water
management plans will need to be submitted and approved as part of the Site Plan Review
process.
ITEM Rezone, GDP & SIP 913 Nebraska SL
Landscaping
Section 30-251 only applies to expansions of existing buildings that exceed 50 percent of the
existing floor area. However, as the proposed addition is extending toward a residential property
on the north side of the site, bufferyard standards will be applied. A 10' buf£eryard along with a
row of arborvitae are being proposed along the residential property to meet the bufferyard
requirement.
Dumpster Enclosure
The proposed dumpster enclosure on the west side of the existing gym will be constructed of 8'
tall split face block walls to match the existing building with a wood gate for access. The
dumpster pad will meet the 7.5' side yard setback. However, the proposed access to the
enclosure from W. 10th Ave. will have a setback of 1.26' from the west property line. Staff is
supportive of a BSM for this setback reduction as an overall improvement will be made by
matching the setback of the existing gravel driveway that is being upgraded with asphalt.
Signage
No changes to signage are proposed as part of this Planned Development.
Site Lighting
A photometric plan has not been provided. However, the application states that some lighting
from the canopies will spill over into the public right-of-way. A BSM will be required for the
lighting level to exceed 0.5 fc at the right-of-way line. Staff does not have concerns with this,
provided the lighting does not exceed 0.5 fc at any neighboring property lines. Final approval of
the lighting plan will be required as part of Site Plan Review.
Building_ Facades
Section 30-240 of the zoning ordinance requires building expansion of less than 50 percent of the
existing floor area to be substantially similar to the design and materials of the existing building.
The proposed building addition between the school and gymnasium will be clad in a cream city
brick veneer, which will be consistent with the cream city brick veneer of the existing school. The
new entrances along Nebraska St. and W. 101h Ave. will be identified by changing the massing
and brick color and include a heavy timber canopy with a pitched roof. The eastern facade along
Nebraska St. is being altered by removing the existing vinyl siding at the windows, adding new
windows and creating the brick veneer. The applicant feels that these changes will enhance the
appearance of the facades.
FINDINGS/RECOMMENDATION/CONDITIONS
In its review and recommendation to the Common Council on an application for a Planned
Development district, staff recommends the Plan Commission make the following findings based
on the criteria established by Chapter 30-387 (C)(6):
(a) The proposed Planned Development project is consistent with the overall purpose and
intent of this Chapter.
ITEM. Rezone, GDP & SIP 913 Nebraska St
(b) The proposed Planned Development project is consistent with the City's
Comprehensive Plan and other area plans. (It is the responsibility of the City to determine
such consistency.)
(c) The proposed Planned Development project would maintain the desired relationships
between land uses, land use densities and intensities, and land use impacts in the environs
of the subject site.
(d) Adequate public infrastructure is or will be available to accommodate the range of
uses being proposed for the Planned Development project, including but not limited to
public sewer and water and public roads.
(e) The proposed Planned Development project will incorporate appropriate and adequate
buffers and transitions between areas of different land uses and development
densities/intensities.
(f) The proposed Planned Development project design does not detract from areas of
natural beauty surrounding the site.
(g) The proposed architecture and character of the proposed Planned Development project
is compatible with adjacent/nearby development.
(h) The proposed Planned Development project will positively contribute to and not
detract from the physical appearance and functional arrangement of development in the
area.
(i) The proposed Planned Development project will produce significant benefits in terms
of environmental design and significant alternative approaches to addressing
development performance that relate to and more than compensate for any requested
exceptions/base standard modifications variation of any standard or regulation of this
Chapter.
(j) For Planned Development projects that are proposed to be developed in phases, the
applicant can provide a timeline for development and can demonstrate that the project
would be successful even if all phases were not or could not be completed.
Staff recommends approval of the Rezone, General Development Plan and Specific
Implementation Plan with the findings listed above and the proposed following conditions:
1. Base Standard Modification to reduce the front yard (east) setback from the established
building setback (approx. 6') to 2.3' for entrance canopy addition.
2. Base Standard Modification to reduce the street front yard (south) setback from the
established building setback (approx. 22') to 1.32' for a building addition with entrance
canopy.
3. Base Standard Modification to allow 63.9% impervious surfaces where code allows a
maximum of 60% impervious surfaces.
4. Base Standard Modification to reduce side yard setback (west) from 7.5' to 1.26' for
dumpster enclosure access drive.
5. Base Standard Modification to allow exterior lighting levels to exceed maximum 0.5 fc at
the right-of-way line. Final lighting plans to be approved by the Department of
Community Development.
6. Final storm water management plans approved by the Department of Public Works as
part of the formal Site Plan Review.
ITEtYI: Rezone, GDP & SIP 913 Nebraska SL 4
The Plan Commission approved of the Rezone, General Development Plan and Specific
Implementation Plan as requested with conditions noted. The following is the Plan
Commission's discussion on this item.
Site Inspections Report: Mr., Bowen, Mr. Hinz and Ms. Propp reported visiting the site.
Staff report accepted as part of the record.
The applicant requests a zone change from the existing Institutional District (I) to Institutional
District with a Planned Development Overlay (I -PD). The applicant also requests approval of a
General Development Plan and Specific Implementation Plan to allow for building additions.
Mr. Slusarek presented the item and reviewed the site and surrounding area as well as the land
use and zoning classifications in this area. The applicant is proposing a two-story school infill
addition between the existing school and gymnasium as well as modifications to the east and
south entrances. The school addition will have a total footprint of 6,280 sq. ft. and is needed to
expand school classrooms along with daycare uses. The east entrance addition will be 646 sq. ft.
in area. The project also includes new entrance canopies on the east and south sides as well as a
58 sq. ft. bump out at the southeast corner of the building and a new dumpster enclosure with
paved access from W. 10th Ave. on the west side of the existing gymnasium. The property does
not include a parking lot. On -street and off-site parking areas will continue to be utilized for the
site. The proposed building addition between the school and gymnasium will be clad in a cream
city brick veneer, which will be consistent with the cream city brick veneer of the existing school.
The new entrances along Nebraska St. and W. 10th Ave. will be identified by changing the
massing and brick color and include a heavy timber canopy with a pitched roof. The eastern
fagade along Nebraska St. is being altered by removing the existing vinyl siding at the windows,
adding new windows and creating the brick veneer. The applicant feels that these changes will
enhance the appearance of the facades.
Ms. Propp opened up technical questions to staff.
Ms. Palmeri stated in the rezoning narrative the applicant states there would be no addition
traffic to the area. She questioned if there was an increase in students, wouldri t there also be an
increase in traffic.
Mr. Propp suggested holding the question for the applicant.
Mr. Bowen stated the classroom elevation windows seem small and was curious if they met code
for window openings.
Mr. Lyons explained that Institutional land uses do not have design review standards but
through the Plan Development, those items could be addressed.
Mr. Bowen stated the windows just strike him as being small for relatively large expanses of
building.
ITEM: Rezone, GDP & SIP 913 Nebraska St. 5
Mr. Burich said there were no standards put in the code for Institutional during the ordinance
update.
Mr. Bowen said he assumed there be guidelines for Institutional.
Mr. Burich replied there can be.
Ms. Propp opened up the public hearing and asked if the applicant wanted to make any
statements.
Ben Leibl (representing owner) said he serves as the principal at Grace Lutheran School. He said
there will be an increase in enrollment for the next school year which would be with or without
the request. He said there is a parking lot across Nebraska Street that the families do utilize. He
said there is also street parking on W. 101h Avenue. He explained they are limited for availability
of parking space but do utilize a City parking lot after hours for parking. He reiterated that there
would be an increase in enrollment and usage.
Ms. Palmeri asked what the anticipated increase is for enrollment.
Mr. Leibl replied 30 students, making the total number of students around 160. He stated the
plan is for growth throughout the years.
Ms. Propp asked if Mr. Leibl had any comments about the windows.
Erik Drazowski (applicant), 100 Camelot Drive of Fond du Lac, said he is with Excel Engineering.
He said the windows are something the architects are working through. He said they have
designed multiple schools and assumes the windows have been deemed acceptable. He would
be open to having the architects take another look at the windows.
Ms. Propp asked if there are classrooms where the smaller windows are located.
Mr. Drazowski confirmed they were classrooms.
Jason Kramer, 1160 Laager Lane, said he is the church president and former school board
president. He said they received a rendering suggesting less windows due to decreased focus
from students. He explained there are a lot of schools now that have smaller windows or
windows that are small and higher up which would keep the light coming in but the focus in the
classroom. He reiterated there would be an increase in enrollment without the proposed request.
He said the 30 students would go in the basement where there are no windows. He said the
reason for the request is to provide more area due to growth of Grace Lutheran.
Melinda Gosdeck, 119 W. 9�11 Avenue, asked what type of arborvitae would be used to the north
because their garage is located near it.
Mr. Drazkowski answered it would be Techny arborvitae.
ITEM: Rezone, GDP & SIP 913 Nebraska St

Neighborhood opinion is an important factor in the decision-making process. If the proposed development is
expected to have significant impact on other properties, the petitioner may be required to conduct a
neighborhood meeting to solicit public input prior to action by the Plan Commission and City Council. Planning
Services staff is available to offer assistance in compiling a mailing list for the neighborhood meeting. If deemed
appropriate, notification by mail informing the property owners within 100 feet of the subject property of the
proposal may substitute for the public meeting. Please note that a meeting notice will be mailed to all abutting
property owners regarding your request.
Within 90 days of filing a complete application, Plan Commission shall hold a public hearing to consider the
request. Within 60 days of the public hearing, the Plan Commission may make a written report to the Common
Council with recommendations regarding the proposal. The Plan Commission's report is advisory only. The
Common Council will make the final decision regarding all zone change requests. The Plan Commission may lay
over requests to subsequent meetings if incomplete information is provided or additional questions or concerns
are raised at the meeting.
After the Plan Commission makes its recommendation, the request will be forwarded to the Common Council for
consideration. This generally occurs three weeks after the Plan Commission meeting depending on the date the
Council meeting is scheduled (the Council meets on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of every month) and on the
availability of a legal description for the zone change. Wisconsin State Statutes require a zone change to be
published as Class II notice in the local newspaper, the City takes care of this publication requirement prior to
the Council meeting.
The Common Council may approve the Official Zoning Map amendment as originally proposed, may approve
the proposed amendment with modifications, or may deny approval of the proposed amendment. If the
Official Zoning Map amendment is approved, the Ordinance is published in the newspaper on the following
Saturday and will be effective on Sunday. City administrative offices are notified of the effective date of the
Ordinance and will make changes to the Official Zoning Map accordingly.

Project Narrative
Project: Grace Lutheran Church & School
913 Nebraska Street
Oshkosh, WI
40,
EXCEL
ARCHITECTS • ENGINEERS • SURVEYORS
Grace Lutheran Church & School is requesting a General Development Plan (GDP),
Specific Implementation Plan (SIP) & and rezone to PD approval for the additions to an
existing building located at 913 Nebraska Street into a mixed-use space containing
church and School. The property is currently zoned I — Institutional and is being
requested to rezone to PD.
The property is an existing development on the block bounded by West 10t" Avenue,
Nebraska Street and West 9t" Avenue. The existing site contains a church, school, and
gym currently interconnected. The proposed project will expand the interconnection
corridor and modify the east and south entrances. A screened dumpster enclosure will
be connected on the west side of the building. The existing gravel drive will be
asphalted to allow access to trash bins and access to gym doors.
Surrounding land uses include: residential and mixed use. The proposed project will be
compatible with the surrounding zoning, which includes: Central Mixed Use (CMU) to
the northeast, southwest, south and west. TR -10 residential zoning is located to the
north, south, east and northwest.
The property currently consists of an existing church, school and gym with 40,073 sq. ft.
of building, with gravel/pavement and grass lawn area. The building addition will include
the addition of a two-story school addition between the gym and existing school with a
floor footprint of 6,280 sq. ft. This is needed to expand school classrooms for 3rd_8th
grade along with Pre -K and daycare uses. The east entry addition/renovation will be
646 sq. ft. A bump out in the southeast corner will be 58 sq. ft. The existing dumpsters
on the west side will be now placed in a proposed dumpster enclosure.
The majority of the exterior materials are proposed to remain untouched. The existing
church is mainly limestone veneer with wood trim dormers and a clay tile roof
appearance. The school has a cream city brick veneer with a low profile membrane
roof. The existing gymnasium is pre-engineered building with a 12' high wainscot of
split -faced concrete masonry wall with architectural metal wall panel above.
The intent of the proposed additions is to match the existing school as much as
920-926-9800
WWW. EXCELENGINEER.0011
possible. The addition between the existing school and gymnasium is using a cream
city brick veneer, and low profile roof. The addition also has an entrance to the daycare
classroom which will be identified by changing the massing and brick color. It will also
use a heavy timber canopy with a pitch roof to help identify this entrance.
The main entrance along Nebraska is also being altered to better identify it as the main
entrance with the use of pale brick veneer and a heavy timber canopy with a pitched
roof. Along with the new main entrance, the eastern facade along Nebraska is being
altered by removing the existing vinyl siding at the windows, adding windows and
creating the brick veneer corner to create a more welcoming appearance to the public
way.
The hours of operation are expected to remain the same and number of employees is
expected to increase by two. Existing traffic and offsite parking conditions will remain
the same as currently exists.
The building addition will be a positive change to the area. The redeveloped property
will fit with the character of the existing neighborhood and there will be no negative
impact on neighbors. This development will also allow the school a chance to expand
and provide more opportunities to the students and surrounding community.
SIP Narrative Requirements:
• Specific project themes and images
o The proposed development, in an effort to be respectful to the existing
building, will be constructed to blend the new with the original school with
the use of cream city brick, large windows while providing two entrance
features help identify the main facility entrance and the new daycare
entrance.
• Specific mix of land uses
o The proposed uses will include the same use as current, church and
school, with the addition of a daycare. The classrooms will be expanded
for additional rooms. The school will be increased to meet the demand of
the existing facility.
• Specific residential densities and nonresidential densities as described by
dwelling units per acre, and landscaping surface area ratio and/or other
appropriate measures of density and intensity.
o The proposed facility will increase the footprint from 40,073 sq. ft. to
45,869 sq. ft. The proposed site will include 36.1 % open space. The
existing site has 39.7% open space. The exterior lighting on the site will be
wall mounted and meet the code requirements and provide an inviting
atmosphere for the public.
• Specific treatment of natural features
o The major natural feature on the property is the existing stone church.
The proposed development will blend the new construction with the
existing.
• Specific relationship to nearby properties and public streets
920-926-9800
WWW. EXCELENGINEEF .<:OM
o The existing building is located on the east side of the block and will
remain in its current location except for the proposed infill to better link the
existing buildings internally. Parking areas will remain offsite and the
existing traffic patterns are expected to be the same. A bufferyard with
landscape screening is provided for the residential lot to the north.
Canopy lights will be added to new entrances and wall lights will be added
to the courtyard. The dumpster location has been shifted north to allow
garbage trucks access to the site and eliminate the need to block the
public walk.
• Statistical data on minimum lot sizes in the development, the precise areas
of all development lots and pads; density/intensity of various parts of the
development; building coverage, and landscaping surface area ratio of all
land uses; proposed staging; and any other plans required by Plan
Commission.
o The existing lot is 96,02 sf (2.20 ac) and contains 40,073 sf (0.0.92ac) of
building floor area and 57,882 sf (1.33 ac) of impervious for a total of 0.42
acres of impervious coverage (60.3%) and 0.88 acres of open space
(39.7%). The proposed site will contain a building footprint of 45,869 sf
(1.05 ac), 15,513 sf (0.36 ac) of impervious surfaces, and 34,645 sf (0.80
ac) of open space. Based on the surface coverages, the proposed site is
comprised of 63.9% impervious surfaces, and 36.1 % open space. The
existing driveway will be in generally the same location as the current.
• A statement of rationale as to why PD zoning is proposed. This statement
shall list the standard zoning requirements that, in the applicant's opinion,
would inhibit the development project and the opportunities for community
betterment that are available through the proposed PD project.
o The proposed SIP with PD zoning is proposed to meet the requirements of
the site while trying to combine all the multiple uses with existing and
proposed site elements.
• A complete list of zoning standards that would not be met by the proposed
SIP and the location(s) in which such exceptions/base standard
modifications would occur.
o Section 30-50(G) — Pavement Setback
■ Existing gravel on west side will be paved.
• The existing gravel on the west side for gym door access
and dumpster access will need to be paved. The existing
path encroaches into the 7.5' pavement setback but will be
the same as existing. This is required to allow vehicle
access to the site. The existing access to W. 10th Avenue is
currently shared and will remain the same.
o Section 30-50(G) — Maximum Impervious
■ Impervious area exceeds 60% maximum requirement for
Institutional zoning.
• Impervious area on the site has been increased above the
allowable limit for institutional zoning. Impervious area is
3,500 sf more than currently exists. However, city maps
920-926-9800
WWW. EXCELENGINEEFL CO M
show the playground area as impervious. This playground
area is 8,500 sf. The playground is now hardwood mulch
and therefore the impervious on the proposed site has been
reduced by 5,000 sf from the City recorded amount. The
existing condition also exceeds 60%.
o Section 30-50(G)
■ Front yard setback.
• New entrance on south side and modified entrance on east
side project into the front yard setback. Entrances contain
columns and canopies to protect visitors from elements.
Entrance encroachment is needed to maintain internal layout
elements while meeting the new demand of the school
elements.
o Section 30-190
Lighting Levels
• Request is made proactively to allow some light spillover at
the canopies along W. 10th Avenue and Nebraska Street to
further light the public right of way for visitors and
pedestrians. Final lighting to be provided by electrical
contractor.
o The additions will primarily use Class 1 building materials and will be well
above the 50% threshold required.
Phasing Schedule
o The proposed project is planned for 1 phase.
How is this SIP consistent with the approved GDP and any and all
differences between the requirements of the approved GDP and the
proposed SIP.
o The proposed SIP is being submitted concurrently with the GDP:
■ East side building expansion is within front setback.
■ South side building expansion is within front setback.
■ West side dumpsters will be placed in a proposed enclosure that is
connected to the building and within the building setbacks.
■ The north side of the development provides a residential bufferyard.
■ The general use of the facility will remain the same with the addition
of classrooms, daycare, and pre -k facilities.
■ Overall the development will improve the existing building and site
entry points and provide a more cohesive interior layout.

The building addition will be a positive change to the area. The redeveloped property
will fit with the character of the existing neighborhood and there will be no negative
impact on neighbors. This development will also allow the school a chance to expand
and provide more opportunities to the students and surrounding community. A rezone
is required to allow for flexible use of the property due to the existing site and building
limitations that currently exist while allowing the church and school to meet the needs of
the community.
