Plan Commission approves resubmitted site plan for Commonplace Building 2 at 670 Mike McCarthy Way
Summary
The Plan Commission approved a resubmitted site plan for Commonplace Building 2 with the same design as the 2024 approval, subject to staff conditions including a detailed landscape plan, coordination of utility laterals, and a required height permit from Brown County despite prior FAA approval.
The Village of Ashwaubenon Plan Commission on July 1 approved a resubmitted site plan for Commonplace Building 2 at 670 Mike McCarthy Way (Parcel VA-55), granting approval with staff conditions that mirror the prior 2024 approval and noting the developer expects to break ground in mid-August.
Aaron, Community Development staff, told commissioners site plan approvals by the village expire one year after village board approval; the board approved the project in May 2024 and the prior approval expired in May 2025. The developer resubmitted an unchanged site plan. Aaron reviewed design elements including exterior materials (masonry on the first floor and architectural wall panels with concealed fasteners on upper levels), porches facing Mike McCarthy Way, a walkway connection to Odyssey Climbing and Fitness, and parking that wraps around both Commonplace buildings. Aaron said a detailed landscape plan and planting schedule will be required for approval by the village forester.
Recommended conditions mirror the prior approval: obtain a height permit and approval from the Green Bay Austin Straubel Airport Director and a separate Brown County permit for height (Aaron noted FAA approval has already been granted but a county permit is still required); use fully concealed fasteners for the wall panels; screen rooftop and ground-mounted mechanical units visible from property boundaries or the public right-of-way; meet all Ashwaubenon site plan and village ordinances; coordinate new utility lateral installation with Al Farber, Ashwaubenon Utility Operations Supervisor; and the developer will pay all costs for new laterals and roadway restoration. Aaron also reported a stormwater quality buy-in to regional ponds of $8,288.75 and on-site underground retention for stormwater quantity. The Site Plan Review Committee reviewed the submittal and recommended approval earlier the same day.
A commissioner moved and another seconded approval of the resubmitted site plan with staff conditions; the motion passed on a voice vote. Aaron said the developer indicated a mid-August groundbreaking date. The commission's action approves the resubmitted site plan with conditions; any required permits (including county permits and the separate height permit) remain the developer's responsibility.
