Members approve Mad Garage site plan and CJM Consulting plat; set Jan. 13 meeting

Members present at a meeting approved a site plan for Mad Garage LLC at the 2100 block of North Main and a plat submitted by CJM Consulting, set the next meeting for Jan. 13, 2025, and adjourned without public comment.

The presiding member opened the agenda’s first substantive item as a site-plan approval for Mad Garage LLC, noting the property is in a Highway Oriented Business zoning district. Unidentified Speaker 2 (board member/staff), who presented the plans, said, “It will face the south, but it will have a North Main address.” The staff explanation said access is proposed from the north across an abutting Northwestern Mutual property via an existing easement, and the application includes proposed parking, surfacing, drainage and elevation details as well as future building additions shown on the plans.

After brief procedural discussion about code compliance enforcement, a motion and second were made to approve the site plan as presented. With no members of the public in attendance to comment, the motion carried by voice vote.

The next agenda item was a plat submitted by CJM Consulting. Staff noted the plat sits adjacent to Lot 3 approved at a prior meeting, falls within R4 zoning, and meets the zoning requirements for lot size, width and setbacks while following the master plan. A motion and second to approve the plat were called; the body approved it by voice vote.

The presiding member then opened the floor for public input on non-agenda items, reminding speakers of a three-minute limit and that no action would be taken at this time; no one came forward. The meeting was adjourned.

The members also approved the meeting agenda, the Nov. 25 meeting minutes, and set the next meeting for Jan. 13, 2025, all by voice vote earlier in the session.
