Public hearing – President Johnson opened the public hearing. Administrator Sumwalt said that this is a fix of the village inheriting the association for the business park. His memo stated that the association had design standards required in the deed restrictions. The Village of East Troy has become a successor to the developer in running the association with its recent acquisition of four parcels and is proposing disbanding the association. Addressing the architectural standards through a zoning overlay district rather than an association will be more efficient since applicants will not need to apply to two separate boards for review. He said that the design overlay was developed for exactly this kind of development, and there are parcels across the street which already fall under this overlay district. This action brings the other parcels into the same as the others and is permissible for parcels that are contingent to others in the overlay district. Not all of the parcels have the same base zoning, and that zoning will not change. There were no comments from the public. President Johnson closed the public hearing. b. Discussion and recommendation to the Village Board Motion by Trustee Harding, second by Commissioner Hayes, to recommend to the Village Board Approval of the proposed rezoning set forth in the draft ordinance dated February 19, 2026. Motion carried.
