2. Consideration and action on a request from the Town of Scott to change the zoning
designation on parcel SC-194 from R-1 Single Family Residential to B-2 General
Business and I Limited Industrial.
D. Cerny explained that the Town of Scott purchased SC-194 (38.5 acres) in 2018 for the
purpose of encouraging business development. The property contains an old farm house and
1
several outbuildings with the majority of the property being an agricultural field. The property
has been zoned R-1 Residential since the Town’s sanitary district was formed (37 years ago).
The Town of Scott’s Comprehensive Plan recommends the property be developed with
commercial frontage and industrial in the back. The requested rezoning matches the
Comprehensive Plan.
Staff recommends rezoning SC-194 from R-1 Single Family Residential to B-2 General
Business and I Limited Industrial, as illustrated.
E. Rakers inquired how the Town notifies neighbors and the process for rezoning. D. Cerny
explained the Town of Scott Plan Commission will see the item on February 21, 2019 followed
by a public meeting and then a public hearing before the Town Board. Neighbors within 300
plus feet will receive notification.
E. Rakers asked why a single parcel on Algoma would remain residential. D. Cerny explained
the owner was not interested in rezoning at this time as it may affect future sales of the home
and property. D. Buck stated that the Commission could recommend it be included in the zone
change and it would be up to the Town Board to decide if it should be included.
A motion was made by E. Rakers and seconded by N. Strebel to approve the zone change as
recommended. Motion carried 4-0.

configuration and adjacent land uses took place.
A motion was made by N. Strebel and seconded by J. Hruska to approve the preliminary plat as
presented. Motion carried 4-0.

AGENDA ITEM # E.2
(CPA_JPC 22-01)
Consideration with possible action of a request to amend the City of Green Bay’s Comprehensive Plan for
property located in the 4000 Block of Champeau Road (Parcel No. 22-SC490) from commercial to light
industry, submitted by Seth Lenss, ICS Properties, LLC, petitioner, on behalf of Joe Moore, agent for the
property owners
BACKGROUND
Primary Address: 4000 Block Champeau Road (Parcel No. 22-SC490)
City Alderperson/District: Ald. B. Dorff, District 1
Reason for Request: The proposed comprehensive plan amendment would allow for the future rezoning
of the property for light manufacturing uses. Petitioners overall goal is to develop self-service
storage/warehousing use.
Surrounding Zoning and Land Uses:
SUBJECT: Planned Unit Development (PUD)-Mixed Use - Undeveloped
NORTH: Planned Unit Development (PUD)-Mixed Use - Medical Center
SOUTH: A-1 Agriculture & B-1 Community Business - Wholesale Commercial & Agriculture, Commercial
EAST: Planned Unit Development (PUD)-Mixed Use - Single-Family Residential
WEST: B-2 General Business - Hwy 54/57
Comprehensive Plan: The Green Bay Smart Growth Comprehensive Plan recommends commercial land-
use for the subject property as well as all adjoining lands.
Analysis: The subject 10.8 acre parcel is located at the 4000 Block of Champeau Road adjacent on the east
side of northbound State Trunk Highway 54/57. A watercourse runs along the north end of the property.
Lands located within the City of Green Bay to the north and northeast is the University Heights Commerce
Center currently developed with a medical center. Lands located within the Town of Scott to the south
include Tillman Wholesale and Nursery along the highway, a sign company, multi-tenant commercial and
residential homes along the southwest corner of Maloney Road and Champeau Road.
City and Town staff have evaluated the request and collectively believe the Comprehensive Plan land-use
change from commercial to light industrial may create a detriment for the surrounding neighborhood as a
“spot” land use change is not consistent with surrounding land uses and existing or future zoning. We would
like to stress that the Joint Plan Commission should not simply consider just the proposed warehousing use
but all the uses allowed in the district. The University Heights Commerce Center Light Manufacturing zoning
permits much more intense land-uses than the Mixed-Use zoning and changing categories for this parcel
isolates a light industrial use that is not consistent with the envisioned future development in this area of the
University Heights Commerce Center. The proposed amendment is not consistent and does not provide a
100 North Jefferson Street, Green Bay, Wisconsin 54301-5026
greenbaywi.gov
transition to existing and proposed uses.
The roadway network (Algoma to Maloney then Champeau) is not designed for higher volume or heavy
truck traffic, which could be part of the various light manufacturing land-uses allowed. Additionally, the
subject property is large enough to support a plethora of commercial or residential activities and has
extremely high visibility with substantial highway frontage and staff feels that manufacturing/warehousing uses
are not the highest and best uses of the property.
The notification for Comprehensive Plan Amendment requests within the joint planning area is being
followed for this request and a Class I notice has been published in the Green Bay Press Gazette.
RECOMMENDATION
Denial of the request.
