  Mayor Petfalski opened the Public Hearing at 6:02.

  Planner Trzebiatowski explained that the Public Hearing was for a Conditional Use Grant, which is required for
  an auto body shop for Caliber Collision. The body shop will be located on the eastern side of the lot next to
  Ace Hardware on Commerce Center Parkway.

  Vanessa Gomez Arias, S63W15825 & owner of S63W15789, her property is immediately north of this
  property. She is in favor of the auto repair shop. It would be beneficial for them and would not like any other
  fast-food places in the area. Their hours are such that it will not be overnight. In favor of petition.

  Tim Dearman, (Tennessee) with petitioner, they are here for questions.

  John Heller, (Pewaukee) the developer of project, The use is consistent with what has been in the plan. They
  have tried to get a multi-tenant use in that location but have not been able to do so.

  Mayor Petfalski closed the Public Hearing at 6:07.
CONSENT BUSINESS
 RESOLUTION PC 056-2025 Approval of a Two-Lot Certified Survey Map for Caliber
 Collision located on a vacant parcel along Commerce Center Parkway / Tax Key No.
 2169.994.003.

  Alderman Madden made a motion to approve the consent business. Commissioner Kubacki seconded.
  Motion to approve passed unanimously.

OLD BUSINESS FOR CONSIDERATION
 RESOLUTION PC 037-2025 Approval of a Building, Site and Operation Plan Amendment
 for RDCycle located at the S73 W16555 Janesville Road / Tax Key No. 2198.978.

  Planner Trzebiatowski provided an update of additional material being submitted. The items that needed to be
  worked out were the location and color of the bin and the owner of the building being a co-applicant. The bin
  will be located between the salon and laundromat doors. It will be in front of a masonry part of the building
  and there will be some landscaping that would be removed. There was discussion of a striped parking stall for
  accessibility to the bin. The color the applicant proposing is green to match the roof of the building. Staff is
  recommending a beige color to match the siding of the building. The bins often have graphics over the bin.
  Staff is recommending logos that are cut-outs of the lettering and not covering the color of the bin.

  Commissioner Bartlett said that it seems to address all of the issues from previous discussions and agrees
  that the color should match the side of the building and would definitely prefer that it not sit in the middle of the
  parking lot.

  Commissioner Cieslak said that this opens up a bigger can of worms if this is allowed and allowed after the
  initial approval of the building. This could open up to vending machines in front of buildings. Really hesitant to
  approve this as it sets a precedent of adding things in front of the building.

  Commissioner Kubacki asked if the building owner is a co-applicant. Planner Trzebiatowski said he was.
  Commissioner Kubacki said that gives him a bit of comfort so that it does not turn into a dumping ground.
  Commissioner Cieslak said that that is exactly what he believes will happen and it is not monitored.
  Commissioner Kubacki said that if this is approved that there is some monitoring to ensure it doesn’t happen
  or the Plan Commission could revoke the approval.

  Commissioner Buckmaster asked to compare these to flag donation bins for American Legion or VFW.
  Planner Trzebiatowski said that he is only aware of the bin at the library. He can only speak from personal
  experience but in the last month he has found bins with other materials outside even though they say clothes
  and shoes there will be vacuums and other stuff outside.

  Alderman Madden agreed and said that almost every time she has seen them there is a mess around them.
  We can monitor them but it will not stop the activity. If we do we will be sending multiple letters.

  Commissioner Buckmaster said he definitely does not want to monitor these bins. Kind of ambivalent and just
  not sure.

  Mayor Petfalski agreed that when you are talking about these you start paying more attention and there are
  other bins without approval in the City and they tend to be junk collectors and understands why they moved
  the bin closer to the building but that could be another hazard with the bins being lit on fire. This does not
  complement the community or the business community.

  Planner Trzebiatowski said that if anyone wanted these bins, the bins could be put inside the store without any
  approvals. Commissioner Cieslak added that during the holidays there are donation bins in many stores.

  Commissioner Bartlett asked if this is something that will be taken up by Council. Planner Trzebiatowski and
  Mayor Petfalski said that anything outside on a property is subject to Plan Commission review no different
  than any outside storage. Commissioner Bartlett added that he the precedence topic is not as strong as
  things similar have been approved around the City in the past.

  At the September 2, 2025 Plan Commission meeting, Commissioner Graf made a motion to approve
  Resolution PC 037-2025 and Commissioner Kubacki seconded prior to deferral to the October Plan
  Commission meeting.

  At the October 7, 2025 Plan Commission meeting, Commissioner Bartlett made a new motion to defer
  Resolution PC 037-2025 for one more month. Alderman Madden seconded. Motion to defer Resolution PC
  037-2025 for one more month passed unanimously.

  At the November 4, 2025 Plan Commission meeting, Commissioner Bartlett made a motion to Defer
  Resolution PC 037-2025 for one month. Commissioner Cieslak seconded. Motion to defer passed
  unanimously.

  Motion to approve Resolution PC 037-2025 failed with a roll-call vote 4-2 with Mayor Petfalski, Alderman
  Madden and Commissioners Cieslak and Kubacki voting no. Commissioners Bartlett and Buckmaster voted
  yes.

NEW BUSINESS FOR CONSIDERATION
 RESOLUTION PC 057-2025 Approval of a Building, Site and Operations Plan and Conditional
 Use Grant for Caliber Collision located on part of an existing vacant parcel along Commerce
 Center Parkway / Tax Key No. 2169.994.003.

  Planner Trzebiatowski provided an overview of the proposed project for Caliber Collision. The building will be
  14,600 square feet and the rear will be fenced to store vehicles waiting for repair. The hours are 7:30 AM to
  5:30 PM. Caliber Collision works on only personal sized vehicles. They will be doing body repairs but no
  mechanical repairs. Deliveries will be only during business hours. The overhead doors must be closed while
  work is occurring to ensure no noise or dust is escaping. As for the overall architecture the building will be
  nearly all a tan masonry with a black band and higher front corner where the office is located. On the back of
  the building there are two bump-outs that will not be masonry. The backside of the parapet walls must be clad
  with the same materials as the front. The maximum height is 26 feet of the building. The petitioner believes
  the parapet walls will screen the rooftop mechanicals, but special attention will be paid for the views along
  Moorland Road, which is a little higher than this site. To the north is a tall hill, which the mechanicals on top of
  the building cannot be screened. The fence was originally proposed as a PVC fence but has been changed to
  a wood fence to be more sturdy. Staff is recommending a more decorative fence that will be reviewed during
  permitting. The gates must match the fence. As for the site, there is a cross access easement established
  and for this site the cross-access must continue through this site and the applicant needs to work with the
  neighboring property, Ace Hardware, to have that cross-access constructed. Overall, there are 58 parking
  stalls behind the fence and 25 stalls in front of the fence. There is no outdoor storage allowed on the site.
  Landscaping will be reviewed during permitting time as well as the lighting.

  Commissioner Buckmaster made a motion to approve Resolution PC 057-2025. Commissioner Kubacki
  seconded. Motion to approve Resolution PC 057-2025 passed unanimously.

 RESOLUTION PC 058-2025 Approval of a Metal Accessory Structure for Richard Parfrey
 located at W207 S8686 Hillendale Drive / Tax Key No. 2227.990.

  Planner Trzebiatowski explained that this is for a metal accessory structure. The footprint of the building is
  just over 6,000 square feet which is allowable based on the size of the lot. The building has character to it. As
  for the use, there are many components to it like a shop, pickleball court, gathering areas with a kitchenette,
  men’s and women’s restrooms that required extra questioning. So the petitioner said that it will be for
  personal use only and will not have any large events, public assemblies, commercial businesses, outside
  rentals, or any other revenue generating activity in the space. There was a question of color of the accessory
  structure regarding matching the existing house or the future house that will be the main house with the
  existing being the guesthouse.
 The petitioner said that they are changing the color of the roof of the existing house to black with the beige
 siding along with the new house that they will be building. They are adding metal onto the house as it is
 important to them as well that everything match. The outbuilding will be beige with a black roof. They are
 adding white oak to the guesthouse (existing house).

 Commissioner Kubacki made a motion to approve Resolution PC 058-2025. Alderman Madden seconded.
 Motion to approve Resolution PC 058-2025 passed unanimously.
