Plan Commission approves consent agenda including zoning changes, demolition permits and land divisions
Summary
The Madison Plan Commission on April 28 approved a consent agenda containing six routine land-use items—rezonings, conditional-use requests, a demolition permit and two certified survey maps—and referred three larger items to future meetings.
Madison Plan Commission members approved a consent agenda on Monday, April 28, 2025, that included rezoning and conditional-use recommendations and two certified survey maps. The vote to approve the consent agenda was recorded by unanimous voice consent.
The items approved on the consent agenda included: Legistar 87597 (rezoning at 149 Wisteria Street, Alder District 9, from SRC2 to TRC3), Legistar 87630 (conditional use for a housing cooperative at 722 Moreland Road, Alder District 14), Legistar 87633 (conditional use to allow construction of a single-family residence on a lakefront parcel at 1522 Winona Way, District 14), a demolition permit for 2604 Winona Way (District 14), Legistar 87655 (a certified survey map for 4313 Buckley Road in the Town of Burke to create one residential lot), and Legistar 87656 (a certified survey map for 6059 Portage Road in the Town of Burke to create three residential lots).
Why this matters: Consent agendas bundle routine land-use matters staff consider sufficiently reviewed. Approving them clears the commission’s calendar for more contentious items; any commissioner may request removal for separate consideration (none were removed tonight).
Key details and referrals: The commission also referred several larger or more complex items to upcoming meetings rather than acting on them tonight. Legistar 87470 and Legistar 87598 (345 West Main Street and related parcels, District 4) were referred to the commission’s May 12 meeting; Legistar 83269 (709–711 East Johnson Street, Alder District 6, conditional use for an outdoor eating area open past 9 p.m.) was referred to the May 19 meeting.
Votes at a glance: The consent agenda as a package passed by unanimous voice consent. (A separate roll call was not taken for each item during the meeting.)
What’s next: Referred items will return to the Plan Commission on the dates listed above for full public hearings and deliberation. Routine applications approved tonight will proceed through the normal permitting and council processes as required.
Sources and provenance: Planning staff presented the consent list at the start of the meeting and read each item into the record; the public record attached to the agenda includes staff reports and supporting documents for each Legistar number.
