Site Plan Review committee approves exterior overhaul for 780 Morris Avenue
Summary
The committee approved comprehensive exterior improvements at the former Kocken machine property at 780 Morris Avenue, including re-cladding, a new roof, masonry wainscot, and paving of a gravel area. Staff attached multiple site-specific conditions and reminded the applicant that Plan Commission and Village Board approval are also required.
The Ashwaubenon Site Plan Review Committee on June 2 approved a redevelopment plan for the former Kocken machine property at 780 Morris Avenue (parcel VA-66-7-E-1), clearing the way for exterior renovations and parking improvements.
Aaron, the staff presenter, described the project as a comprehensive exterior improvement package: replacing the roof, re-cladding portions of the building with board-and-batten siding and a masonry wainscot, and paving a gravel area to the east of the building. Renderings were included in the meeting packet and staff recommended approval with conditions.
Staff’s recommended conditions require use of fully concealed fasteners for metal wall panels, a minimum three-foot masonry wainscot on all new metal wall panels, conventional curb pan or mountable curbing for new paved areas where required, and compliance with Ashwaubenon Site Plan Review and other applicable village ordinances. From public safety, Aaron reminded the committee that all buildings must have a Knox box key installation within five feet of grade and within five feet of the front main entrance on the address side of the building.
Aaron also noted that, because the property sits within the Sports Entertainment District, the project must also go to the Plan Commission and Village Board for final approvals. A committee member complimented the proposed look and the site cleanup. A motion to approve the site plan with staff conditions was seconded and carried on a voice vote.
The applicant’s representative, Dave Holzem, was present in the audience; no additional public comments or objections were recorded during the meeting.
