Board approves rezoning and land‑use amendment for Zirbel property; first reading on floodplain ordinance text change
Summary
The county board approved rezoning and land‑use plan changes for a parcel in the Town of Paris owned by the Marilyn M. Zirbel revocable trust and received a first reading on a text amendment to the county’s zoning and shoreland/floodplain ordinance tied to a FEMA letter of map revision.
The Kenosha County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved a resolution and two ordinances updating the land-use plan and zoning classification for a parcel owned by the Marilyn M. Zirbel revocable trust in the Town of Paris, and took a first reading on a separate ordinance to update the county’s shoreland and floodplain ordinance language to reflect a FEMA letter of map revision.
The board approved Resolution 122, which requests an amendment to the adopted land-use plan map (Comprehensive Plan map 65) to change the designation for tax parcel 4542213530105 in the southwest quarter of Section 35, Town 2 North, Range 21 East (Town of Paris) from mixed use and SEC to mixed-use rural density residential and SEC; the committee that considered the resolution voted unanimously in favor.
The board then approved Ordinances 29 and 30 on first reading together; both relate to the same Marilyn M. Zirbel revocable trust property and implement the zoning changes described in the comprehensive plan amendment, including rezoning the parcel from A-1 Agricultural Preservation District and C-1 Lowland Resource Conservancy District to A-1, R-1 Rural Residential District, C-1 and a Planned Unit Development (PUD) overlay district. Both ordinances passed the Planning, Development and Extension Education Committee unanimously and were approved on first reading at the full board.
Separately, the board received a first reading of Ordinance 31, which would amend section 12.02.130 subsection C (and related subsections) of the Kenosha County General Zoning and Shoreland/Floodplain Zoning Ordinance to update references to official maps and to reference the FEMA-approved letter of map revision associated with the South Branch of the Pike River. That ordinance was introduced for a first reading and referred through the standard committee communication process.
All votes on the listed items were recorded as unanimous at the meeting; Supervisor Kevin Brookhouse and members of the planning committee presented the items and asked for the board’s consent.
