Summary

At a June 18 special meeting, the Shell Lake City Council approved a rezone creating a 4‑acre Light Industrial lot at the northeast corner of the site, authorized a two‑lot minor land division for tax parcels #32923 and #32918, and amended the comprehensive plan’s future land use map to reflect the change.

The Shell Lake City Council on June 18 unanimously approved a rezone and a minor land division that will create a 4‑acre lot designated Light Industrial at the northeast corner of the site, with the remaining land to remain Single‑Family Residential.

Mayor Rowie Hansberger called the special meeting to order at 5:30 p.m. City Administrator Andrew Eiche presented the Plan Commission recommendations and gave a brief overview of the rezone request and the certified survey map (CSM) for the minor land division tied to tax parcels #32923 and #32918.

Councilmember Ken Schultz moved, seconded by Rob Anderson, to approve the rezone request as presented. The motion carried by unanimous vote. During discussion, Councilmember Stephen Smith asked what the future net construction valuation would be; Eiche said it was not final but estimated at "approximately $2.3 million." Smith said he viewed the projected valuation as positive for the city, and Anderson concurred.

The council then approved the certified survey map to split the existing property into two lots, on a motion from Smith seconded by Tom Rasmussen; that motion also passed unanimously. Councilmember Rob Anderson moved, seconded by Ken Schultz, to amend the comprehensive plan’s future land use map to reflect the requested zoning change for tax parcel 32923; the council again approved the amendment unanimously.

The council adjourned at 5:40 p.m. on a motion from Smith, seconded by Steve Byrd.
