Greendale board approves zoning change to let Village Club add a storage building
Summary
The Village Board approved a zoning map amendment to reclassify 6263 Sherwood Road from R1 residential to P park and granted site plan approval for a roughly 560‑sq‑ft accessory storage structure for the Greendale Village Club.
The Village of Greendale board unanimously approved a zoning map amendment and site plan that will reclassify parcel 69‑69998005 at 6263 Sherwood Road from R1 (single‑family residential) to P (park) to accommodate an accessory storage building for the Greendale Village Club.
Staff told trustees the property had long been used for non‑residential club purposes and that the existing use was a legal nonconforming use under residential zoning. The applicant, identified in the record as Mark Rubowski representing the Greendale Village Club, requested the rezoning so future improvements—including the current storage building plan—would be consistent with a park zoning designation.
Trustees questioned whether additional future features (possible pickleball or tennis courts) were planned; staff said the application before the board was limited to the storage structure, which is about 560 square feet and would have metal siding. Staff also noted that the parcel is not in the locally designated historic district and therefore is not subject to the historic commission's color or material restrictions. The plan commission had recommended approval at its recent meeting.
After a brief public hearing with no speakers, the board moved, seconded and approved the ordinance change and site plan by roll call.
The board’s action permits the Greendale Village Club to build the accessory structure; any additional amenities such as courts would require separate review and approvals as they move from exploratory planning into formal applications.
