Summary
The Board of Appeals met Oct. 9, 2025 at 96 Russell Drive, noted that applicant Jake Spitz was absent for variance V2025-2 (parcel 59176746403, R-1 zone) and adjourned; the body set a reconvened meeting for Oct. 15, 2025 at 5 p.m.
The Board of Appeals convened at 5:15 p.m. Thursday at 96 Russell Drive and did not hear a variance application because the applicant, Jake Spitz, was unable to attend.
The variance request, listed on the agenda as V2025-2, sought permission to allow multiple accessory structures on a parcel without a primary residence for parcel number 59176746403 in a Residential R-1 zone. The minutes state the applicant could not attend the meeting and no hearing or vote on the variance is recorded.
Chairman Smith moved to adjourn the meeting until Wednesday, Oct. 15, 2025, at 5 p.m.; Member Keri Wallenkamp seconded the motion, which the board carried 5-0. Member Becky Soerens then moved to adjourn at 5:17 p.m.; Member Erik Buchelt seconded, and that motion also carried 5-0.
Clerk/Treasurer Stephanie Waala noted that items on the agenda may be taken out of order; the minutes were created on Oct. 12, 2025. The record also cites Wisconsin’s Open Meetings Law (Wis. Stat. 19.83(2) and 19.84(2)), noting the public’s right to observe and a governmental body’s discretion regarding public participation.
The Board scheduled the matter to be taken up at its reconvened meeting on Oct. 15, 2025 at 5 p.m. No formal action on variance V2025-2 is recorded in these minutes.
