Um, I believe Tara Teske from signs unlimited is on the phone. Is that correct Tara? Thank you What we're taking a look at is signs unlimited is proposing a new take five oil change sign located at 1328 Indiana Avenue. This is the north West or northeast corner of 14th and Indiana Recently there was a change of ownership and so Take five is now rebranding the oil change Locations that they have The applicant had submitted a sign permit for the monument sign that you see before you today One of the things that we found out is that the sign was not quite meeting the 12 foot setback to all the property lines So what the applicant is proposing today is to be 12 feet from 14th Street and to be three feet from The north property line the north property line was a former sit-go Gas station that has recently been raised. So so we're taking this the sign itself I can't can I see the sign ones? I can't remember what the square footage is so the sign itself is about a 108 square feet But when you take just the sign portion, I believe it was about 54 square feet So what we're taking a look as is at just the three foot There's a variance request for the three foot setback to the north property line and staff was recommending approval of the sign as proposed Thank you very much Steve The applicant have anything to add to that the applicant is on the phone Here pretty much covered at all. It was just that the fact of that there's not enough area there Where that retaining wall is Where the measurements from the property line obviously property lines aren't marked up on the site itself It's via the GIS mappings that we use so they put it where the proof was and then of course the proof didn't hold straight Exactly proportionate to where it should have been so that's why it was placed in the incorrect spot But in order to get it placed Properly there there's not a whole lot of area to work with at that property location Thank you for those comments. I entertain a motion to approve this project Okay, we have a motion on the floor. Thank you very much Is there any Discussion if you'd like to speak just again say your your last name first and then proceed with your comments Hearing no discussion then I'll ask Our secretary Chad Pelle check to call the roll for approval mayor van der steen.

There's a large HVAC unit on the roof and the new parapet will help screen that and Constructing the new addition replacing the existing damage building materials and creating one cohesive color scheme Will substantially improve the overall look and feel of the property along Michigan Avenue and 10th Street So staff was recommending approval of the conditional use permit subject to the conditions you have before you Thank you for that report Steve. Did the applicant want to add anything to that? No, I think Steve did a great job Okay, that makes it simple I'd entertain a motion to approve this conditional use Thank you for that motion in support is there any discussion on the motion On the new addition I noticed there's a second floor and they said that was closed Is the second floor just an extension of the downstairs bar or is that an apartment or what what is that up there? so at one point when the Whole property changed hands to the current owner that property or the second floor was open and In order to get his bar up and running. He did a deem That to be closed off to the public that way you could have his bar open So right now that's totally shut down There could be plans in the future to move forward to make that into a library of some sort or a coffee bar So that might come in the future, but for now plans to keep that closed Is there any other discussion Often It's open a couple times a week Whenever the beer garden is open for access from the public that is when they are required to have someone buy that egress gate Currently on the west side of the property line And it's quite popular in the spring, you know labor Labor Day weekend Memorial Day weekend things of that sort Thank you any other discussion Seeing no other discussion with Chad, please call the roll mayor van der steen aye alderman boran Dave Huffman, I Jerry Jones Marilyn Montemire Ryan sasma Motion carries motion passes Next move on to item 3.3 Which is a conditional use and variance application by Rogers behavioral health to construct and operate six unit community-based residential facility a CVRF and an independent outpatient Meeting building from the vacant and undeveloped property located at 1108 South Wildwood Avenue parcel five nine two eight one two one five seven one zero Located south of Aldi's between Taylor Drive and South Wildwood Avenue Steve All right Jack Collier is here from Rogers behavioral health and Steve pesky from design instinct Instinctive design sorry about that Steve So what we're taking a look as the vacant about 3.13 acres of property at 1108 Wildwood Avenue as the mayor said this is located directly to the south of Aldi's grocery store between Taylor Drive and Wildwood Avenue the proper the previous use of the property was a junk or salvage yard Probably a decade or more ago Recently the applicant had come in and Proposed to rezone the property from urban industrial to suburban office And the reason being was obviously so Rogers would have the ability to submit a conditional use for the uses that we're discussing today one of the proposed buildings that will be a general office type use for Rogers treatment and outpatient services Patients would come and go on a day's daily basis while enrolled in counseling programs They anticipate offering variant various types of programs serving both Adolescents and adults and they estimate that their hours of operation would likely be 8 a.m. To 8 p.m. In phase one of the building will be approximately 8900 square feet.

I just have a couple questions. First of all, I I think this is Exciting use for that property This is going to be great for our community, but I do have a couple questions with that site Is there any environmental concerns or as you're going to have to be any and? Environmental tests done before they can build there because of the past history of that property and Is the is where the bill I tried to look at the photographs of where that was going to be built Are there any additional filling in that's going to have to be done or Gentlemen, did you have a response to that We've gone through the process of Investigating the site We've gone through the process of investigating the site to our full extents with the DNR in the registry That they have on the site and it is a clean site it has been filled But it is all clean fill in not a brownfield site that we have to worry about any contaminants Within that area. I also had one Alderman born again. I did have one other question that is Roger the Hebrew is that all private key or do they accept private insurance to the except Government County referrals of the facility made up and how are they reimbursed At this point Well, probably just a certain any major institutional insurances we We usually partner with and private pay At this point when we're looking into government programs as well Thank you for that response is there any other discussion Didn't understand the total wanted to know if the elevation of the building if you're going to see it from Taylor Drive Elevation of the building will be approximately 15 feet below Taylor Drive Taylor Drive is at an uphill slope at that location So you will see the building you'll be looking down at the top of it Majority of it I should say okay. Thank you And then Ryan. Yeah, I know I know you're aware of this But there is that storm sewer going through there yet in the city over time is you're gonna need access to that for repairs and everything So that's going to be yeah, we just have rights to get in there and fix it and repair it would need be so It's one of the key right at this time. We don't have any buildings going over it, right, right? So would have access to it. We're trying to avoid the few manholes that are there. It's been a a Difficult thing just to straddle maneuver since it could really bisects the site but He's our engineers and architects been done a great job to try to avoid it as much as possible Right, but it's ever got to be dug up I think the repair of the parking lot it's going to be on the owner because it is it is over an easement So just to just just just to make you aware of that Okay, yeah, is there any other discussion? Seeing none. I asked you had to call the roll for passage mayor van der steen. I Alderman born Dave Huffman I Jerry Jones Marilyn Montemire Ryan sasma I Motion passes Thank you Thanks for your presentation Next item is item 3.4, which is a conditional use and variance application by Green Street Development Group LLC to amend the previously approved Oscar apartment complex at 1436 South 15th Street the van der Vart property and To consider an amendment to the site plan and building site improvements Steve All right, Joel and have an Oliver are here today representing Greed Street Development Joe was in here previously approximately about September of 19 As and I'm sure Joel speak to this a little bit But as there was a little bit more in geological investigations on the site There was some areas that were found that could not be Construct foundations couldn't be constructed on for residential purposes So basically before there were four larger or four buildings on the site And today the applicant has come back to amend that to allow for three larger 80 unit buildings on the site Some of the other aspects that you'll notice is that all of the garages and carports have been removed And now they're going to be installing underground parking and surface parking. So that's a nice improvement and then there are just Previously they were going to use one of the van der Vart structures that was there after we're doing a for Pavilion type structure as after doing some additional investigation. They found they weren't going to be able to do that but they still plan on Constructing a new pavilion structure in that northeast corner that the residents and the future bike path will go by again this multi-family development consisting of 240 apartments and three standalone buildings on the Maximum height of the buildings is staying the same and that would be the 49 feet five inches 395 park spaces will be provided with 180 of those being underground 215 would be surface parking there are a number of Sites that would be included as part of this a certified survey map would be created to create the Oscar development apartment site There's the possibility of additional development at the southeast and southwest corners of the site That the applicant would be creating as part of a certified survey map that would create those parcels in the future See here there was a traffic study that was completed as part of this project that included both the Oscar development as well as potential development may be of a quick trip at Southeast corner closest to the intersection of Broadway and 14 and there were some recommendations From that traffic impact study and one of those recommendations was to install a new signal at Georgia Avenue in South Business Drive And that would be scheduled to be installed in 2021 other than that the project is virtually the same in terms of the Variances and the conditions of approval that we had previously looked at I can answer any questions and the applicants here Thank you very much for that report Steve. Would the applicant like to make any comments on the project? Just thank you for having us here. We're sorry that we're having to make these modifications Like Steve said as we've been working with Wisconsin DNR just through the historic fill on the site has been There are no some curve balls. So hence the modifications we have today The unit count did go down by eight just so you're aware So we were at 248 before we're at 240 now the unit mix is essentially the same as it was before and the new pavilion They were proposing to build in the pocket park is actually a larger structure And then we would have been able to accommodate through saving the garage building. So at the end of the day It probably serves a nicer Kind of amenity for the community. So I'm happy to answer any questions that you have Thank you very much Commissioners I'd entertain a motion to approve this project Okay, we have a motion on the floor. Is there any further discussion on this motion I Please respond so the surface parking is now not covered it is we're providing more Spaces in the secured garages than we were previously providing and we Eliminated the carports Is there any other discussion?
