FISCAL SUMMARY: STATUTORY REFERENCE:
Budget Summary: N/A WI Statutes N/A
Budgeted Expenditure: N/A
Municipal Code: Chapter 13, Zoning Ordinance
Budgeted Revenue: N/A
BACKGROUND:
Meta House is looking to relocate to the properties located at Tax Key Number 242-1198-004 and 242-
1198-003 generally known ad 4160 N Port Washington Road. Their facilities will consist of office,
outpatient and inpatient facilities. The property is currently classified as Industrial with a zoning of M-1.
The applicant has received approval for amendment to the Land Use Plan, a rezoning to Planned
Development District (PD) with general development plan approval.
Next steps in the process are to receive approvals for the specific development plan, development
agreement, and fee in lieu agreement.
ANALYSIS:
Site Design
The current design of the site has an existing building with a large parking lot on the west side of the
building. The proposed site plan is to blend the addition with the existing building and use the linkage
between buildings and the main entry. A south facing courtyard will be provided. Parking will be between
the building and Olive Street. The service area of the facility (dumpsters) will be in the southwest corner
of the new parking area. Fire access will be provided to the courtyard via a 30 ft drive. Site improvements
include a sidewalk along Olive Street.
Architecture
Page 1 of 4
City of Glendale
5909 North Milwaukee River Parkway
Glendale, WI 53209
The architecture of the building is a combination of industrial – coordinating with the older repurposed
industrial building and portions of the building with a more residential charter with gabled roofs and
residential style windows.
Materials
Martials on the existing building will remain. Materials for the new addition will be complementary to the
existing structure. The building will feature face brick in a cream color, Wood Look Fiber Cement Panels,
Metal panels, Aluminum storefront window systems and fiberglass window systems.
Lighting
The applicant is proposing to use Lithonia lighting for the parking area. The maximum height of 15ft.
Security lighting and landscaping lighting will also be provided.
Landscaping
The applicant is proposing and extensive landscaping plan that features a variety of plantings, screening
and special landscape features. The plan features:
• Landscape buffer and shade trees parallel to Olive Street
• Parking Lot Screening.
• Internal Parking lot plantings at islands and bump outs
• Foundation Plantings
• Enry plaza plantings
• Enhanced landscape at existing building
• Courtyard and Playground plantings
• Evergreen Screening at service area
• Prairie planting in the western portion of site.
The landscaping plan is designed to provide an impression of full growth at the time of planting. The
application has requested that they work with staff closer to completion of the project to provide shrubs,
grass, and perennial plantings at spacings that are based upon plant maturity and allow the plants to grow
to their intended form. This may reduce the overall quality of plants but not reduce the intent of the
design. A reference to this option is included within the draft development agreement or Common Council
consideration.
Dumpster Enclosure
The dumpster enclosure is planned to have horizontal slats with a pattern consisting of 3 ½ board and 1
3/8 in boards. The dumpster area will be additionally screened with Evergreens.

The rezoning process is anticipated to have the following schedule:

STAFF COMMENTS:
Engineering and Public Works:
Below are preliminary comments from Public Works and Engineering. Subsequent comments will
be forthcoming after we receive the Civil Site Plans.
1. Stormwater Comments:
a. Based on the preliminary concept map, it appears there will be added
impervious surface. If there will be over 5,000 SF of impervious surface added,
stormwater management will be required. Please see the attached Criteria and
Review Checklist for applicability. Comment Remains, no calculations for
impervious have been provided.
b. Any stormwater management facilities installed on the site to meet
requirements must be accompanied by a maintenance agreement. A draft
agreement is available upon request. Comment Remains
c. New Comment: The stormwater from the developed area will be routed through
an underground treatment facility. Please provide details and existing vs
proposed flows from the site.
2. Civil Site Comments:
a. Modifications to roadway entrances must be detailed and will require ROW
permits from the City.
b. The storm sewer connection to West Olive St will require pavement repairs. The
existing pavement is concrete, therefore the pavement patch shall be concrete
with drilled no. 4 dowel bars 12” spacing. Slurry backfill should be used up to
bottom of pavement section.
3. Utility Comments:
a. New Comments: The sanitary lateral has been shown to connect to an existing
manhole (#1) onsite. Will the water service to the new building be from the
existing water line on site?
b. Coordination must occur with Glendale inspections and Water Department staff
when planning for the connection to the water, sanitary and storm sewer
facilities. Again, when those plans are submitted, we will know more and if this is
applicable. Update: Coordinate with City staff for the storm sewer connection.
4. Landscape Comments:
a. Trees and shrubs on northern side of property should be salt tolerant and
acceptable to be planted next to a road.
b. Consider installing root barriers between the sidewalk and trees to prevent
roots from breaking and heaving pavers, sidewalks, curbs and roads.

SUBJECT: Discussion and consideration of site plan and architecture review for the
proposed exterior modification of the BluePearl Pet Hospital and temporary
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machinery at 2100 W. Silver Spring Drive,
in a B-3 Silver Spring Drive Commercial District, Tax Key Number 169-0371-
003.
FROM: John Fellows, AICP; Director of Community Development
Ken Smith, MPA, M.S.; Planner
Meeting: Planning and Architectural Review Commission
MEETING DATE: May 2, 2023
FISCAL SUMMARY: STATUTORY REFERENCE:
Budget Summary: N/A
Budgeted N/A Wisconsin N/A
Expenditure: Statutes:
Budgeted Revenue: N/A Municipal Code: § 13.1.36
BACKGROUND:
There has been a veterinary hospital at 2100 W. Silver Spring Drive since 1999. The applicant,
Jacob Odders, Doctor of Veterinary Medicine, began operating at the site under the business
named “Lakeshore Veterinary Specialists.” BluePearl Operations, LLC has operated the BluePearl
Pet Hospital in Glendale on the site more recently. BluePearl is a national chain of veterinary
hospitals headquartered in Tampa, Florida.
Around 2016 or 2017, the City of Glendale began receiving noise complaints after the veterinary
hospital installed a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machine in a trailer outside of its facility.
While under the legal decibel limit and quieter than traffic from Silver Spring Drive, the machine and
its ancillary equipment became a new nuisance of background noise for the surrounding neighbors.
By all accounts Dr. Odders worked in good faith to improve the situation. In recent years complaints
have diminished as sound dampening and other measures were provided.
ANALYSIS
The City of Glendale has not received any recent noise complaints from the veterinary hospital. The
applicant’s proposal to temporarily bring in a new trailer and MRI machine while the hospital is
renovated to have an indoor MRI offers the opportunity to reduce ambient noise in the
neighborhood for the long term.
Modifications to the building will include the addition of HVAC-related equipment on to the roof of
the building. The application indicates that the exiting parapet will screen the proposed equipment,
but notes that if needed the parapet will be extended.
Page 1 of 2
5909 North Milwaukee River Parkway
Glendale, WI 53209
The other modification to the structure is the modification of the two large windows facing Silver
Spring Drive. To move the MRI into the space, the windows will have a blackout fill applied to
conceal the interior framing for the MRI room. The color of the blackout film has not been specified
but the applicant is willing to work with staff to choose a color that will allow the windows to seem
livelier than empty. The western window will also be modified to remove the lower brick panel and
then have a full storefront system installed to grade. The lower half of the window will either be
glazed with blackout material or spandrel glass.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Plan Commission grant approval for site plan and architectural review for
BluePearl Operations, LLC at 2100 W. Silver Spring Drive, subject to:
1. The applicant shall work with staff to choose a blackout color that is livelier in color than
empty in appearance.
2. The applicant shall provide specifications regarding the western window with details for
glazing with blackout material or spandrel glass. The design shall maintain the patterning
of the existing vertical and horizontal muntins.
3. The applicant shall work with staff to verify that new HVAC and other roof top equipment
will not be visible from the public right of way and if needed extend the parapet for
screening, with details regarding extension of the parapet to be approved by staff.
ACTION REQUESTED:
Motion to recommend approval for site plan and architectural review for BluePearl Operations,
LLC’s proposal at 2100 W. Silver Spring Drive subject to:
1. The applicant shall work with staff to choose a blackout color that is livelier in color than
empty in appearance.
2. The applicant shall provide specifications regarding the western window with details for
glazing with blackout material or spandrel glass. The design shall maintain the patterning
of the existing vertical and horizontal muntins.
3. The applicant shall work with staff to verify that new HVAC and other roof top equipment
will not be visible from the public right of way and if needed extend the parapet for
screening, with details regarding extension of the parapet to be approved by staff.
