Plan Commission approves Overlook Ridge final development amendment with updated architecture and landscaping
Summary
The commission approved an amendment to the Overlook Ridge final development plan to relocate multifamily buildings north toward Main Street and accepted updated architectural renderings; the developer said the project will start in spring after a developer agreement is finalized.
The East Troy Plan Commission approved a proposed amendment to the final development plan for the Overlook Ridge Plan Development District that relocates multifamily residential buildings closer to Main Street and incorporates updated architectural features intended to tie the project visually to the village square.
Developer Kevin presented revised marketing renderings and an architectural review packet showing elements drawn from downtown buildings, including cornices, varied LP siding widths, framed window trim, and masonry foundation treatments intended to visually anchor the building. Kevin told the commission the renderings are marketing‑level representations of plans already submitted in civils and utility plans; he said staff and consultants (Lynch Engineering) are reviewing the engineering and that a traffic study, tree permit application and signage submittal are on file.
Commissioners asked about the location of a proposed dog park and whether it could be moved; Kevin said civil engineering and slope constraints prevent relocating the dog park near the garage and said the applicant had added larger spruce trees and additional landscaping to screen the area. Kevin said dog‑park hours at his other properties are typically 8 a.m.–8 p.m. and that rules (bagging waste, owner responsibilities) would apply.
Commissioners thanked Kevin and staff for additional detail; a motion to approve the amendment subject to the listed conditions passed by voice vote. Kevin told the commission the team is finalizing a developer agreement and expects to start construction in spring, pending execution of that agreement and coordination on snow conditions.
The commission’s approval notes additional conditions and that final engineering, utilities and the developer agreement remain to be completed prior to construction.
