Board approves minor PDD amendment to allow reduced setback at Victory Meadows
Summary
The Suamico Village Board approved a minor PDD amendment to allow a 6-foot side-yard setback on the north end of the Victory Meadows condominium after zoning staff said moving the building would require altering a water easement and redoing installed utilities and state approvals.
The Suamico Village Board on Jan. 6 approved a minor planned-development-district amendment allowing a 6-foot side-yard setback for a corner of the northern building at the Victory Meadows condominium site.
Zoning Administrator Dunks told the board that a stormwater-driven site-plan change and a water easement relocation shifted the northern building roughly 4 feet north of its originally approved position, creating a conflict with the village code, which requires a 10-foot side-yard setback. Dunks said much of the plumbing and laterals have been installed and that shifting the building back would require modifying the water easement and redoing completed work and state approvals. "We are looking to modify the PDD to allow for that 6 foot side yard setback per the site plan," Dunks said.
The amendment applies to the Victory Meadows site on the west side of Veil Avenue, about 400 feet south of Riverside Drive. Dunks said the encroachment affects only a small rear corner of the building and that adjacent property owners had been notified; staff reported receiving no opposition during the meeting.
A motion to approve the requested PDD modification was offered and seconded; trustees voted in favor by voice vote and the motion carried. No amendments were proposed during the board discussion. The approval allows the site plan as submitted to stand without requiring the applicant to seek new state building approvals or to shift the water main and installed utilities.
The board's action resolves a technical nonconformity created when the water-main alignment changed after the site plan was prepared. The amendment does not change the number of units approved for the development and, according to staff, affects only the setback at a small portion of the northern building.
