Summary

The commission unanimously recommended rezoning a Chapman Drive parcel from M3 limited business/industrial park to I1 institutional to allow the Waukesha Water Utility to locate an operations center there, enabling a permitted institutional use rather than a conditional-use process.

The commission voted to recommend that the Common Council rezone a parcel on Chapman Drive from M3 (limited business/industrial park) to I1 (institutional) so the Waukesha Water Utility can locate an operations center and vehicle parking there. Staff said rezoning would allow the utility’s proposed facility to be a permitted use rather than require conditional-use review, and noted the property contains an existing stormwater pond that will be expanded to accommodate the project footprint.

The conceptual site plan shows office space facing Chapman Drive, enclosed vehicle parking, a shop area and a designated outdoor storage area. Staff recommended approval of the rezoning and the commission voted unanimously to forward the recommendation to the Common Council.
