Plan commission recommends conditional‑use permit for three‑tenant Kamas Court building with landscaping, lighting conditions

The Village of Jackson Plan Commission on March 20 recommended the Village Board approve a conditional‑use permit and site plan for a three‑tenant commercial building at N171W21860 Kamas Court submitted by DeCamus Court Jackson LLC.

Commissioners discussed landscaping and screening between the proposed building and an adjacent manufactured‑home development. Planning staff and the applicant said they will provide a berm using an existing topsoil pile and plantings to screen the development, and the applicant said it will add mixed vegetation rather than a single hedge. The applicant also committed to “putting full cutoff fixtures on the backside of the building” to limit light spill, and said a rendering of the revised landscaping could be provided within days for review.

Plan Commissioner Hekendorf made the motion to recommend approval of the conditional use permit subject to items 1 through 4 in the staff memo; Plan Commissioner Emerick seconded. The motion carried by voice vote.

Planning staff had included a memo in the commission packet. The transcript records that the proposed structure would contain three tenant spaces and that one space is already committed; no tenant names or business types were presented in the recorded discussion. The record does not include a roll‑call tally; the item is recorded as carried by voice vote and will go to the Village Board for final action.
