Plan commission backs rezone of village-owned parcel to B-3 for East Wausau LLC
Summary
The Plan Commission recommended that the village board rezone a 7.422-acre parcel at 5500 Schofield Avenue and 5601 Sternberg Avenue from institutional to B-3 general business to allow the new owner, East Wausau LLC, to use an existing building as warehouse space while final plans are prepared.
The Village of Weston Plan Commission on Dec. 9 recommended the village board approve a rezoning request for a 7.422-acre parcel addressed as 5500 Schofield Avenue and 5601 Sternberg Avenue, forwarding the change from institutional to B-3 general business.
Staff explained the village sold the property to East Wausau LLC in 2023 and that the purchaser wants a B-3 designation to allow short-term use of an existing building as warehouse space while it develops longer-term plans. Staff recommended approval and the commission ran the statutory consistency questions required under Wisconsin statutes; commissioners answered that the proposed zone was consistent with the comprehensive plan and advanced the chapter's purpose and intent.
A motion to recommend approval to the village board for the Dec. 16 meeting was made by Mumper and seconded by Hoffman; the motion carried with ayes recorded and no opposition noted in the transcript. No public comments were offered during the hearing.
