the minutes with changes. Voting Aye: Aldermen Beifuss, Birch Ferguson,
Dettmann, Garling, Sheahan and Stout.
3. Public Participation. None.
4. Items for Consent.
A. Zoning Text Amendments — Staff is proposing a number of clarifications and
corrections to the Zoning Ordinance. There are no new regulations contained in this set
of text amendments. Plan Commission voted unanimously in favor of the amendments.
Alderman Garling requested this Item be removed for further discussion.
Tom Dabareiner provided a staff update. He explained there are no new regulations.
Rather, the changes proposed come from frequent questions staff receives. The first
part attempts to clear up the confusion regarding fences and site triangles, while the
second part attempts to clarify the requirements for driveway expansions.
Alderman Garling asked for clarification about the text for new driveways whereby
they shall lead directly from a street/alleyway to the entrance of a garage and whereby

no portion of any driveway may be located in front of a non-garage portion of the
residence. He wondered about the instances around town where driveways lead to
carports and not garages and other properties with circular driveways. Mr. Dabareiner
pointed out they are not enforcing legal, nonconforming situations such that people
would need to change their driveways or garages. He indicated that if you build a new
home today, the City would require a garage. Carports and circular driveways have
been prohibited for a while and no new ones are allowed. The new text amendments
intend to clarify the existing regulations about brand new driveways or when modifying
an existing driveway for purposes such as widening or upgrading from gravel to a hard
surface.
Alderman Sheahan expressed concern about properties that do not have garages, and
yet have driveways that go from the street to the back of the property. She asked if
those owners would be allowed to change from asphalt to concrete, given that these
types of driveways do not lead to a garage. Mr. Dabareiner assured her that existing
legal nonconforming driveways like these would not be asked to make this change.
Alderman Sheahan asked if this language could be added, as she would not be
comfortable voting for this if the text amendment changes do not state this. Mr.
Dabareiner pointed out that the language regarding legal, nonconforming situations is
in a different section of the ordinance, which is not being changed at this time.
Alderman Beifuss stated these changes appear to have been written for the instances of
where driveways are located in the front of the house. Alderman Birch Ferguson then
read aloud proposed Section 3.8 to clarify the matter of existing driveways that shall
be deemed legal nonconforming. Discussion followed among the Aldermen and Mr.
Dabareiner.
Alderman Beifuss shared history of back when people were paving too much of their
yards. While at that time they considered different geometries, it was decided instead
to impose lot coverage restraints. He asked whether the geometries of the driveways
are again being considered. Mr. Dabareiner replied that they are not going to enforce
anything that is legal nonconforming. Staff has worked to make the requirements clear
for the thickness of the materials used to construct driveways. Discussion followed
regarding residences with driveways located in an interior side yard with no garage and
garages converted to living space.
Alderman Garling asked about the significance of December 20, 2021, mentioned in
the proposed Text Amendment language of Section 3.(A)8. Mr. Dabareiner replied he
was unsure and that he would find out.
Alderman Sheahan asked why the change in fence height from four to three feet.
Alderman Stout stated this only applies to the visibility triangle, which usually happens
at corners to ensure there is a clear site line. Alderman Beifuss asked about the
definition of a visibility triangle vis-a-vis this ordinance. Mr. Dabareiner agreed to

provide more clarification on this Section, 2.c. Discussion followed regarding chain-

Amendments. The motion was approved unanimously by voice vote.

ITEM SUMMARY:
The petitioners, Filip Durbas and Britta Hatzold, own two (2) contiguous parcels of vacant unimproved
land on the east side of Prince Crossing Road, approximately 70 feet north of Main Street, in the ER-1
Estate Residence District. The northern parcel contains 39,639 square feet and the southern parcel
contains 37,461 square feet. The parcels were originally platted in 1914 as Lots 8 and 9 of the First
Addition to High Lake Subdivision.
The petitioners are proposing a Minor Subdivision to consolidate the two (2) parcels to create one (1)
77,100 square foot lot. The width of the new lot will be 262 feet while the existing depth of 327 feet will
not change. The proposed consolidated lot will satisfy all lot size requirements of the ER-1 Estate
Residence district. No public improvements nor any public ways are proposed with the Minor
Subdivision. The petitioners intend to construct one (1) single-family home on the proposed
consolidated lot.
At its September 7, 2022 meeting, the Plan Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals (PC/ZBA) reviewed
the proposed lot consolidation and found it to be in compliance with the City’s Subdivision Regulations
Code. Members voted unanimously (6-0) in favor of recommending approval of the Minor Subdivision.

tor’s equipment sales and leasing operation with ancillary outside storage of trailers and refuse con-
tainers to be used at construction sites. The storage will be located in the paved area directly behind

SUBJECT: PC 22-10
Contractor’s Equipment Sales and Leasing with Ancillary Outside Storage
Intrarex, Inc.
1219 West Washington Street
DATE: September 7, 2022
DECISION: With a vote of six (6) “yes” and zero (0) “no”, the motion to recommend approval
of the Special Use Permit for Contractor’s Equipment Sales and Leasing with An-
cillary Outside Storage was unanimously approved.
RECOMMENDATION
After review of the requested special use for a car wash for the SUBJECT REALTY, the Plan
Commission/Zoning Board of Appeals (PC/ZBA) recommended approval and incorporated the
following findings of fact in their recommendation.
Is necessary for the public convenience at that location or, the case of existing noncon-
forming uses, a special use permit will make the use more compatible with its surroundings:
(This standard should be interpreted as indicating whether or not the proposed use is good for
the public at that particular physical location, and not whether or not the use itself is needed
there).
The proposed use of contractor’s sales and leasing of equipment with ancillary outside
storage is best suited for an industrial area such as the location of the subject property.
The subject property is located within one of the City’s major industrial corridors with
industrial uses, including outside storage, surrounding it. Adjacent properties will not be
affected by the proposed use and are similar in character to the proposal. The proposed
use will complement the Washington Street industrial corridor.
Is so designed, located and proposed to be operated that the public health, safety and
welfare will be protected:
The proposed use of the subject property will not adversely impact the public health,
safety and welfare of the community. It is consistent with the surrounding properties and
will contain fencing, in addition to existing landscaping, to screen the use from public
view. The property is already equipped with a paved surface on the rear of the building
that will satisfy outside storage requirements. No other improvements are needed to the
property for the proposed use.
Ordinance 22-O-0033
Page 4 of 6

===== PDF PAGE 16 =====
[Extraction: OCR (rendered-page OCR)]
Will not cause substantial injury to the value of other property in the neighborhood in
which it is located:
The proposed use will not cause substantial injury to the value of other property in the
area in which it is located. The proposed use will be compatible with the other properties
in the industrial area. The properties to the north and the east both have existing outside
storage occurring and will not be impacted by the proposed storage on the subject prop-
erty. All storage will occur in the rear of the building and will not be seen from public
view.
The proposed special use is designated by this code as a listed special use in the zoning
district in which the property in question is located:
The subject property is located in the M Manufacturing District and both Contractor’s
Equipment Sales and Leasing as well as Outside Activity or Storage Ancillary to a Permit-
ted or Special Use are listed as special uses in the M Manufacturing District, per Section
11.2-4 of the Zoning Code.

FILE NUMBER:
COMMITTEE AGENDA DATE: Sept. 12, 2022
COUNCIL AGENDA DATE:
Ordinance No. 22-O-0034
STAFF REVIEW: Tom Dabareiner, AICP SIGNATURE
APPROVED BY CITY ADMINISTRATOR: Michael Guttman SIGNATURE
ITEM SUMMARY:
On September 20, 2021, the City Council approved Ordinance 21-O-0022, which granted a Final Planned Unit
Development (PUD) and Special Use Permit (SUP) for the development and operation of a car wash for the
property located at 511 East Roosevelt Road in the B-2 General Business District. The petitioner, Dan Gunsteen of
Express Car Wash, Inc., submitted for a permit on August 19, 2022 to develop the site and construct the facility.
The ordinance approving the Final PUD and SUP did not establish a deadline for when construction must begin. In
cases such as this, the Zoning Code stipulates that the Final PUD approval shall expire one (1) year from the date
of approval if construction has not commenced, per Section 15.5 (A)(2), and that the SUP approval shall expire
one (1) year from the date of approval if the use has not become operational, per Section 5.5-8.
In anticipation of not meeting the one (1) year deadline to begin construction or become operational, the petitioner
has requested a one (1) year extension affording the petitioner until September 20, 2023 to commence
construction on the property and become operational. Section 15.5 of the Zoning Code provides the City Council
the ability to grant an extension to an SUP, including the SUP for a Final PUD and car wash.
Staff recommends that the approval for the Final PUD and SUP be extended until September 20, 2023 to allow
enough time for the site/building permit application to be reviewed and approved and construction to occur.
ACTIONS PROPOSED:
Approve the (1) year extension requested by Dun Gunsteen of Express Car Wash, Inc. for the previously approved
Final PUD and SUP to develop and operate a proposed car wash at 511 E Roosevelt Road.

AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
ITEM TITLE:
AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: v.éA.
Zoning Text Amendments
Corrections and Clarifications FILE NUMBER:
Continued from August 8, 2022 Development Committee
COMMITTEE AGENDA DATE: Sept. 12, 2022
Ordinance 22-0-0025 COUNCIL AGENDA DATE:
STAFF REVIEW: Tom Dabareiner, AICP SIGNATURE nz
APPROVED BY CITY ADMINISTRATOR: Michael Guttman SIGNATURE
ITEM SUMMARY:
At the August 8"" Development Committee meeting, the discussion on the proposed Zoning Text Amend-
ments clarifying regulations for fences and driveways was continued pending the resolution of questions
brought up by members of the Committee.
Members of the Committee questioned if a residential fence proposed in the area near the edge of a
driveway and the front lot line of a single family home may be built up to 4 feet in height or if this area is
considered a “visibility triangle” and thus requires the fence to be 3 feet or less in height. The definition
of a “visibility triangle” specifically excludes “driveways associated with a single-family residence” from
being considered part of a “visibility triangle” (see attached), thus exempting it from height restrictions
associated with such. Therefore, fences in the area near the edge of a driveway and the front property
line are, and will continue to be, permitted up to 4 feet in height.
Staff is proposing language that states all existing driveways that do not meet the surface material re-
quirement (i.e. gravel driveways) as of December 20, 2021 are considered legal nonconforming, with
respect to said surface material requirement. Members of the Committee questioned the significance of
this date. December 20, 2021 is the date the City Council eliminated the amortization for existing gravel
driveways. The now eliminated amortization had required existing gravel driveways to be replaced with
an approved surface material no later than 2004. The proposed language makes clear that gravel drive-
ways existing prior to December 20, 2021 are considered legal nonconforming and may remain gravel.
