Plan Commission Meeting Minutes – January 15, 2018

Posted on Jan 16, 2018 by

A meeting of the City of Kaukauna Plan Commission was called to order at 5:30 p.m. on Monday, January 15, 2018, by Chairman Rosin.

Members Present: Feldt, McGinnis, Penterman, Rosin, Schoenike, Sundelius, VanderSanden.

Also Present: Planning Director Jakel, Applicant Charles Witkowski.

Absent and Excused: Oldenburg.

  1. Absent and Excused. A motion to excuse the absent Commission member was made by Penterman, seconded by Schoenike. All members voted aye. Motion carried.
  2. Minutes. A motion to approve the minutes of the October 26, 2017, meeting was made by McGinnis, seconded by Schoenike. All members voted aye. Motion carried.
  3. Two Lot CSM at West 8th and Brill Road – Martin and Barbara Van Zeeland. Mr. Jakel explained that the CSM was designed to correct an error whereby the garage that was built had the original lot line run through the center of the garage. The CSM moves the lot line south to create an 8′ setback for the detached garage. Mr. Sundelius expressed his concern regarding a 2′ gap noted between the south lot line of Lot 2 and the adjoining lot. Mr. Jakel explained that the surveyor used the legal description provided on the deeds that established the south lot line. Staff will follow up with the surveyor and Outagamie County. Mr. VanderSanden asked when the garage was built and questioned if the lot line issue should have been noted on the building permit. Mr. Witkowski explained that the garage was built 20 years ago and that he owned the property to the south and north of the Van Zeeland lot. At that time, Mr. Witkowski and the Van Zeeland’s assumed the lot line was further south along a planted path. The CSM incorporates these prior beliefs. A motion to recommend approval of the two-lot CSM was made by Schoenike, seconded by Sundelius. All members voted aye. Motion carried.

There being no further business to be brought before the Commission, a motion to adjourn the meeting at 5:45 p.m. was made by Sundelius, seconded by Penterman. All members voted aye. Motion carried.
