Planning commission, village board approve 1,045-square-foot addition to Milky Way garage with conditions
Summary
A combined Planning Commission and Village Board approved a 1,045-square-foot addition to an existing detached garage at 230 S. 4353 Milky Way Road, subject to recording a certified survey map and a deed restriction limiting use to residential and agricultural purposes.
The Planning Commission and Village Board on Sept. 11 approved an accessory-building expansion for petitioner Kurt Bushman at West 230 South 4353 Milky Way Road, subject to conditions that the certified survey map (CSM) be recorded before permits are issued and that a deed restriction limit the structure to residential and agricultural use.
Planning staff described the proposal as an addition of about 1,045 square feet to an existing 1,028-square-foot detached garage on Lot 2, a parcel of more than 20 acres created by a recently approved CSM. Staff said the addition meets ordinance requirements and that the building would have horizontal lap siding and stone wainscoting to match the existing structure.
Staff noted two standard conditions: that the CSM be recorded before issuance of zoning and building permits and that, because of the building’s size, a deed restriction be recorded limiting the structure to residential and agricultural uses so it cannot be used for commercial purposes. Staff also asked the petitioner to clarify whether new land disturbance would be necessary for construction to determine whether erosion-control measures are required. County stormwater and erosion-control rules were not triggered for the project, staff said.
Petitioner Kurt Bushman told the bodies that the new addition will be sited on higher ground and that runoff from construction would flow back onto his property rather than leaving the site. "The grading part of it will really not become an issue at all," Bushman said.
A Planning Commission member asked whether the span and roof framing had been reviewed. The petitioner said a structural engineer has reviewed the plans and that the project will comply with local building code and undergo the usual building-permit review.
The Planning Commission moved and seconded approval; the motion passed unanimously. The Village Board accepted the Planning Commission’s recommendation and approved the zoning permit conditions by unanimous vote.
