Plan Commission approves small warehouse addition and ADA improvements at 1343 Ellis Street
Summary
The commission unanimously approved a 690‑square‑foot warehouse addition, an ADA parking stall and a screened dumpster enclosure for Zender Marketing at 1343 Ellis Street, with standard engineering and water utility comments to be addressed.
The Waukesha Plan Commission unanimously approved a minor site plan and architectural review for Zender Marketing’s proposal at 1343 Ellis Street, allowing a roughly 690‑square‑foot warehouse addition, a reconfigured concrete pad with an ADA‑accessible parking stall and a screened dumpster enclosure.
Intern Thane Bremer presented the application, showing proposed site and elevation drawings. The addition will match the existing building materials; the east concrete pad will be reconstructed to include a handicap parking stall and accessible sidewalk, while a new dumpster enclosure is planned on the west side with cedar screening and a latch gate facing the driveway.
Staff recommended approval; commissioners moved and seconded the staff‑conditioned approval and recorded a unanimous voice vote. The fire department raised no objections; engineering and water utility comments will be addressed during permit review.
Chairing commissioner Joan Frank Hoare complimented the owner for well‑maintained site conditions and said the addition will enlarge the business’s warehouse capacity while maintaining compatibility with the street.
