Re:                 Field’s Crossing – Preliminary Plat

 

REGULAR TOWN BOARD MEETING                SEPTEMBER 11, 2006                     PAGE 2

Over the past several months, the Town of Genesee Plan Commission has reviewed different concept plans for a proposed development on property owned by Countrywest Development, LLC, 10425 W. North Avenue #100, Wauwatosa, Wisconsin.  The property is located in the SE ¼, NW ¼ and SW ¼ of Section 34, in the Town of Genesee.  More specifically, the property is located on the west side of S.T.H. 83, north and adjacent to the Johns/Joyce farm and contains approximately 114 acres.  The petitioners are seeking approval of a preliminary plat for “Field’s Crossing”, which is an eighteen (18) lot subdivision with six (6) outlots.  New public road improvements are proposed, which will result in one (1) permanent cul-de-sac and two (2) temporary cul-de-sacs.  On May 22, 2006, the Town of Genesee Plan Commission approved a Special Exception from the cul-de-sac length for the proposed development, subject to petitioner working with the Town of provide additional turn arounds, boulevards or traffic lanes.  On June 12, 2006, the Town of Genesee Town Board also approved a Special Exception from the cul-de-sac length, subject to the conditions of the Plan Commission and subject to the possibility that another water tank may be required by the Fire Chief.  The lots will range in size from 3.01 acres to 3.77 acres and will be served by private on-site sewage systems and private wells.    The property is bisected by a navigable stream (Spring Brook) and contains wetlands, primary environmental corridor and slopes in excess of 20%.  

Soils tests locations are included on the face of the plat, and the soil test data was submitted with the preliminary plat.  Based on the soil data, it is evident that the site contains a moderate seasonal high ground water level.  Many of the sites will contain mound-type septic systems.  Therefore, the home sites may require additional fill in order to construct homes with basements.  The developer will need to submit a final grading and drainage plan along with a stormwater management report.  The Waukesha County Land Resources division has reviewed a preliminary grading and erosion control plan, a preliminary stormwater management plan and a geotechnical engineering and stormwater infiltration feasibility study.   

This submittal is a preliminary plat, which gives the Town Plan Commission 75 days and the Town Board 90 days to take action.  The preliminary plat was filed with Waukesha County on June 8, 2006, and the Town received the preliminary plat on June 12, 2006, giving the Town Plan Commission until August 22, 2006 and the Town Board until September 6, to take action, unless the Developer grants an extension in writing.  On July 20, 2006 the developer granted the Town of Genesee an extension until September 12, 2006 to act on the preliminary plat for Field’s Crossing.  Also on July 20, 2006, the Town of Genesee received a revised preliminary plat for Field’s Crossing dated July 18, 2006. 

 

The Town Planner recommends that the Town of Genesee Plan Commission make a motion to recommend to the Genesee Town Board to deny the preliminary plat for “Field’s Crossing” dated July 18, 2006, for the following reasons:

1.         The approximate radii of all curves need to be shown on the preliminary plat.

 

1.         All Visions Corner Easements shall be clearly shown on the plat.

 

2.         Side lot lines shall be at right angles to straight lines or radial to curved street lines on which the lots

3.         The depth of lots shall not exceed the width of lots by more than 2 ½ to 1.  Lots 7 & 8 do not comply with this requirement and it appears that the proposed development may lose one Lot.

Originally the CSM had no access except for one 30’ area.  When they went to get the culvert permit from the County, the County issued a culvert permit and told him to put it in another location, there was miscommunication between the County Staff and the Highway people as to where the access should be.  They did go out there and said this has good site distance.

Memorandum

To:                  Town of Genesee Plan Commission

From:             Jeffrey C. Herrmann, Town Planner

Date:              08/21/06

Re:                 Haylett - CSM

On April 24, 2006, the Town of Genesee Plan Commission and on May 8, 2006, the Town Board approved a Certified Survey Map for Wayne & Doris Haylett, S30 W29184 Sunset Drive, Waukesha, Wisconsin for the creation of two (2) lots on 12.26 acres.  Lot 1 is 3.213 acres in size and is currently vacant.  Lot 2 is 9.055 acres in size and contains the existing residence, detached garage, shed and barn.  The property is located in part of the SE ¼ of Section 11, in the Town of Genesee and has approximately 655 feet of frontage on Sunset Drive (C.T.H. DE).  The property is currently zoned R-1, Residential District with what appears as a small wetland area located in the center of the property.  As part of the CSM approval, the Waukesha County Department of Public Works required the issuance of a culvert permit for a new driveway to service the vacant parcel.  The proposed driveway was installed in an area marked as vehicular access restricted.  According to Waukesha County, there was a communication error on where exactly the proposed driveway could be located.  Since the proposed driveway location

REGULAR TOWN BOARD MEETING                SEPTEMBER 11, 2006                     PAGE 7

does not comply with the restrictions on the face of the CSM, the petitioner has prepared an “Affidavit of Correction”.  Waukesha County Department of Public Works has reviewed and approved the Affidavit of Correction regarding the revised access location onto Sunset Drive, because the access shown on the approved CSM did not meet Waukesha County Access Ordinance Sight Distance Requirements.

The Town Planner has reviewed the proposed Affidavit of Correction and advises the Town Plan Commission to recommend to the Town Board to approve the proposed Affidavit of Correction subject to the following conditions:

1.      An identical reproducible copy (on stable drafting film at least 4 mils thick) along with the recording data shall be placed on file with the Town Clerk.

 

2.      A letter from the Title Insurance Company stating that the Affidavit of Correction is an adequate correction instrument for the proposed change to the CSM shall be submitted to the Town Clerk prior to the Town of Genesee accepting the Affidavit of Correction and the final CSM as being formally executed.

 

3.      Professional fees.  Petitioner shall, on demand, reimburse the Town for all costs and expenses of any type that the Town incurs in connection with this Affidavit of Correction, including the cost of professional services incurred by the Town (including engineering, legal, planning and other consulting fees) for the review and preparation of required documents or attendance at meetings or other related professional services for this application, as well as to enforce the conditions in this conditional approval due to a violation of these conditions.

 

4.      Payment of Charges.  Any unpaid bills owed to the Town by the subject property owner or his or her tenants, operators or occupants, for reimbursement of professional fees (as described above); or for personal property taxes; or for real property taxes; or for licenses, permit fees or any other fees owed to the Town; shall be placed upon the tax roll for the   subject property if not paid within thirty (30) days of the billing by the Town, pursuant to Section 66.0627, Wisconsin Statutes.  Such unpaid bills also constitute a breach of the requirements of this conditional approval that is subject to all remedies available to the Town, including possible cause for termination of the conditional approval.

STAFF ANALYSIS:

Over the past several years the Town of Genesee Plan Commission and Town Board have been working with Keinert-Consolidated Family Limited Partnership on a proposed development located in the NW ¼ of Section 27, in the Town of Genesee.  More specifically the property is located on the southwest corner of S.T.H. 83 and S.T.H. 59.  In February and March of 2004, the Town of Genesee Plan Commission and Town Board approved a four (4) lot CSM with a new public road improvement.  Unfortunately, the developer has not constructed the proposed road improvement and is seeking alternative development plans for the subject property.  The petitioner is now proposing to redivide/reconfigure the existing four (4) lots as well as add

REGULAR TOWN BOARD MEETING                SEPTEMBER 11, 2006                     PAGE 9

additional lands owned by the petitioner to create a new four (4) lot CSM.  Lot 1 will be 27, 530 square feet and is not changing from what currently exists.  Lot 1 contains an existing residence and is located in the B-1 Local Business District.  Lot 2 will be approximately 2.63 acres in size and contain an existing residence and detached garage.  Lot 2 is located in the B-2 Restricted Business District.  Lot 3 will be 15.25 acres in size and contains an existing residence.  Lot 3 is zoned R-2 Residential District, B-2 Local Business District and B-3 General Business District.  The residence is located in the B-3 General Business District area and is only permitted as an accessory use to an otherwise permitted business use.  Therefore, the owner will need to raze the existing residence or attempt to obtain a Legal Non-Conforming Conditional Use Permit.  

This submittal is a Certified Survey Map (CSM), which gives the Town Plan Commission 45 days and the Town Board 60 days to take action.  The Certified Survey Map was filed with the Town of Genesee on August 8, 2006, giving the Town Plan Commission until September 21, 2006 and the Town Board until October 4, 2006, to take action, unless the Developer grants an extension in writing.

 

In performing a detailed review of this CSM, I have found that the following items need to be added or corrected on the face of the plat:

Section 4.01           The map scale shall not be less than 1 inch equals 100 feet.

Section 4.01 (B)     The legal description does not include Lot 4 of CSM 9995.  In addition, the legal description shall be the same on each page/sheet.

Section 4.01 (E)     The names and address of the all the owners shall be stated on the face of the CSM.  This should include Donovan & Jorgenson and Dynamic Investments.

Section 5.02 (E)     All utility and/or drainage easements shall be shown on the final CSM.

Section 6.06           An identical reproducible copy (on stable drafting film at least 4 mils thick) along with the recording data shall be placed on file with the Town Clerk.
