Jackson plan commission backs Ditmar Properties CSM and rezoning to R‑8 multifamily

The Village of Jackson Plan Commission on March 20 recommended the Village Board approve a certified survey map and a rezoning ordinance for two parcels owned by Ditmar Properties, clearing the way for potential multi‑family development on about 1.038 acres.

The commission voted to recommend approval of the certified survey map for Parcel B3007900Y and Parcel B3008700K after a staff memo was reviewed. Plan Commissioner Hekendorf made the motion and Plan Commissioner Van Eppen seconded; the motion carried by voice vote. Planning staff noted the map would reclassify the property and that there is “potential for multi family development on the site.”

The commission also recommended approval of Ordinance 25‑03 to rezone Parcel B3008700K from Planned Unit Development (PUD) to R‑8 multifamily district and to rezone a portion of Parcel B3007900Y from R‑1 single‑family and R‑9 mobile park district to R‑8 multifamily. Plan Commissioner (name recorded as Mokentin) seconded a rezoning motion made by the commission chair; the motion carried by voice vote. A staff memo accompanying the items was included in the commission packet and served as the basis for the commission’s recommendation.

No roll‑call vote totals were recorded in the meeting transcript; the minutes record the items as carried by voice vote. The recommendations now go to the Village Board for final action.

The commission’s actions address land‑use classification only; the transcript does not record a final site plan or building permit approval. Planning staff indicated the site area under review is about 1.038 acres and that the rezoning would permit multifamily development, but specific project proposals and permit applications were not presented during the discussion.
