Architectural Commission Meeting Minutes
August 12, 2020
The Deputy Clerk called the meeting to order at 5:02 pm.
Members Present: Paul Schultz, Jeremy Flint and Anne Krogstad
Members Absent: Kent Johnson and Kurt Schrang
Staff Present: Jason Gallo, Kristi Weber and Chris Dehnert
Due to the absence of Chairman Johnson, motion by Flint to nominate Krogstad as Chairman pro-tem; second by
Schultz. Motion carried 3-0.
2. Approve the June 10, 2020 Minutes: Motion by Flint to approve the June 10, 2020 minutes; second by
Schultz. Motion carried 3-0.
3. JP Morgan Chase – Consider/approve a replacement ATM at 138 E. Wisconsin Avenue: Weber
explained the applicant is requesting approval of an update and relocation of an existing ATM located at the rear
of their building adjacent to the boardwalk and Fowler Lake. The area is highly visible and staff wanted input from
the members. The applicant plans to remove the existing unit and replace it with a new ATM structure on the
same island but located just outside of the overhang. Weber showed an aerial photo of the rear of the building, the
proposed site layout and a picture of another ATM which the commissioners approved. The ATM structure is very
simple, will be a gray tone and trimmed in blue to match the awnings on the front elevation. There will be minimal
signage and lighting on the unit as the back area along the boardwalk is well lit. Weber recommended approval of
the request. Members questioned why the unit was being moved. The applicant, Chris Quinn of TKO Installations
explained the new ATM’s are gigantic and won’t fit between the columns. Members had no issue with the colors or
location, said it fits with the area and gets a lot of business so being pulled away from the canopy is fine. Motion
by Flint to approve the replacement ATM for JP Morgan Chase located at 138 E. Wisconsin Avenue as submitted;
second by Schultz. Motion carried 3-0.
4. Reports and comments from the City Planner: None.
5. Reports and comments from the Architectural Commissioners: None.

Architectural Commission Meeting Minutes
June 10, 2020
Chairman Johnson called the meeting to order at 5:00 pm.
Members Present: Anne Krogstad, Paul Schultz, Kurt Schrang, Kent Johnson and Jeremy Flint
Staff Present: Jason Gallo, Kristi Weber, Mark Frye and Chris Dehnert
2. Approve the May 13, 2020 Minutes: Motion by Schrang to approve the May 13, 2020 minutes; second by
Schultz. Motion carried 5-0.
3. Valvoline – Consider/approve a Master Sign Plan Update for 1111 Summit Avenue: Weber explained
this property is included in the master sign plan for Whitman Park, and the applicant has been working with staff to
determine best location for signage. The applicant also provided an updated site plan which clearly shows the
vision triangle. They plan to replace sign faces on 3 elevations and would like to update their ground sign by
including their logo and an electronic messaging center. Weber noted the monument sign is 53.75 sf with the
message board being 20.9% of the overall sign square footage which is 3.75% larger than code allows. Staff
feels the amount is minimal and the overall look of the sign with the message board is attractive. Weber also
referred to the delta and said elevation markers have been noted on the road and close to the sign location, and
the proposed sign appears to be level. Staff recommends approval of the request. Members agreed the property
is well signed and the proposed monument sign with electronic messaging center is appropriate for the location.
Motion by Flint to approve the update to the Master Sign Plan for the Valvoline location at 1111 Summit Avenue
as submitted; second by Schrang. Motion carried 5-0.
4. 20 S. Main Street – Consider/approve a Master Sign Plan for 20 S. Main Street: Weber explained the
façade update for this property was approved in September 2019. This building requires a master sign plan as
there is 1 main tenant on the 1st floor (Gordies) and office space for tenants on the 2nd floor. The applicant is
requesting 2 stationary projecting signs on the front elevation (1st & 2nd floors). Other tenants in the building will
not have exterior signage but may have window signage. The projecting signs will be oval, with a red border on a
white matte background mounted on a black tubular steel bracket and illuminated with a gooseneck light fixture.
Weber said the sidewalk is sloped under the 1st floor projecting sign and the applicant provided a picture that
shows it meets the 8’ clearance requirement. The proposed wall signage consists of two wall signs centered over
each garage door on both the front and rear elevations. This signage is considered product signage which staff
said if placed in a window would be unregulated. The applicant is requesting a special exception to allow these
signs. The applicant, Bill Sheahan, explained each sign would be centered above the garage doors, lit at night
and look very classy. There will be small lights located under the overhang to illuminate the signs so the source of
light won’t be seen. Sheahan said they intend to be a good neighbor in the downtown and want to keep the
building looking classy. Motion by Schultz to approve the Master Sign Plan for 20 S. Main Street as submitted;
second by Krogstad. Motion carried 5-0.
5. The Marketplace – Consider/approve a Façade Update for 130, 132 & 134 E. Wisconsin Avenue: Weber
explained the applicant is planning to do updates to the front façade as well along the east elevation next to the
walkway. He plans to re-tuckpoint and paint the brick, replace the windows with tempered glass, open up the
boarded up windows along the walkway, and update the rear facade of the building. Building colors include “Guild
Grey”, a soft gray for the main building color; “Rock Bottom”, a dark black for the trim and doors; and “Gypsum”, a
soft white for accent locations and in the inset section on the front façade. There will also be a cabana style black
and white awning along the front façade. The applicant intends on having an illuminated wall sign in the inset
section along with some window signage. There will be gooseneck lighting on the front elevation and carriage
style lights on the rear. Staff recommends approval of the proposed façade update. The applicant, Jason Dvorak,
S:Clerk\Committees-Commissions\Architectural\2020\ACMin 6-10-20
said the front sign is the niche’ of the building and will consist of channel letters lit with a soft white so it has a
subtle hue. There will be 3 tenants in the building; garage doors in the rear elevation; silver trim in the front
windows and bronze trim in the rear; the shed will be removed; and will probably replace the coping on the rear
elevation. Dvorak handed out material samples and the proposed paint colors. Members questioned painting or
replacing the coping on the rear elevation; all windows should have iodized aluminum trim and maintain black for
the door colors; suggested signage on the doors on the rear elevation; and said this is a nice improvement to the
building. Weber noted if more signage is needed for the individual tenants, the applicant will need a master sign
plan. Motion by Krogstad to approve the façade update for 130, 132 & 134 E. Wisconsin Avenue with the following
changes: all windows to have silver aluminum trim color on rear and side elevations; second by Schrang. Motion
carried 5-0.
6. City of Oconomowoc Police Station – Consider/approve a Special Exception for Wall Signage at 630 E.
Wisconsin Avenue: Weber explained the architectural plans for this building were approved in July 2019. The
applicant is requesting a special exception for a 167 sf wall sign which exceeds code requirements by 117 sf. The
building site is set back approximately 275’ from Wisconsin Avenue so due to the need for visibility and the
importance of the building, staff agrees with the request to exceed size requirements of the proposed sign. The
sign will have white letters and be back lit at night. The Lake Country Municipal Court will have a sign closer to
the building, and they will be listed on the monument sign along Wisconsin Avenue and on a pole sign along
Thompson Street. Weber said the Court is going through rebranding and currently doesn’t have signage at City
Hall. The proposed monument sign matches signage for other City parking lots and will be located by the main
entrance on Wisconsin Avenue. Staff recommends approval of the signage as proposed. Members agreed they
have no issue with the size of the sign and feel it has been done very tastefully. Motion by Flint to approve the
special exception for the City of Oconomowoc Police Station at 630 E. Wisconsin Avenue as submitted; second
by Krogstad. Motion carried 5-0.
7. Reports and comments from the City Planner: Weber explained planning staff received complaints on a
few downtown business. These issues were referred to the Building Inspector who then sent letters to them
requesting to do property maintenance on their building facades. If any major changes are proposed to these
properties, they will need to be reviewed by the members. There is no update on the 110-114 W Wisconsin
Avenue building, and no changes appear to have been made to it.
8. Reports and comments from the Architectural Commissioners: None.
9. Adjourn: Motion by Schrang to adjourn at 5:40 pm; second by Schultz. Motion carried 5-0.

Item #3 – JP Morgan Chase; Replacement ATM
The applicant is requesting approval to replace the existing ATM located at 138 E. Wisconsin Avenue.
JP Morgan Chase bank in located in Downtown Oconomowoc. Their drive-through and existing
ATM are located in a high profile, very visible area adjacent to the Boardwalk and Fowler Lake.
The existing ATM is located on a concrete curb island partially covered by an overhang. The
applicant would like to remove the existing ATM from underneath the overhang and install a new
ATM structure on the same existing curbed island, but will no longer have the overhang above it.
Structure Design
The Commissioners to determine if the ATM structure design is appropriate or should be more
cohesive with the existing building.
Structure Colors
The Commissioners to determine if the ATM structure colors should be complimentary of the
neutral building colors or is acceptable as submitted.
Lighting
Since the ATM is being removed from underneath the lit canopy, Staff requested the applicant to
provide the images of the structure at night. The applicant included an example of a similar project
completed earlier this year. Staff would like to note that the proposed ATM is adjacent to the well-
lit Fowler Lake Parking Lot and the ATM light would not appear as intense as the example shows.
Recommendation:
Approve the JP Morgan Chase ATM plans, located at 138 E. Wisconsin Avenue, with the
following considerations:
• Structure Design: Commissioners to determine if the structure should be cohesive with
the building design or approve as submitted.
• Structure Colors: Commissioners to determine should the colors be complementary of the
neutral building color or approve as submitted.
