Summary

The committee forwarded an 8.25‑acre map amendment from GA and SF‑20 to Heartland for the Alfred and Janice Kueler Trust (agent Brad Buechel), removing nonconforming status from agricultural buildings; staff and the Town of New Holstein supported the change.

The Alfred and Janice Kueler Trust, represented by agent Brad Buechel, requested rezoning of approximately 8.25 acres along County Trunk HH in the Town of New Holstein from General Agriculture (GA) and Single‑Family 20,000 (SF‑20) to Heartland (HL). Meuer, a staff member, explained the rezoning would allow agricultural uses and remove the nonconforming status of existing agricultural buildings; staff and the Town of New Holstein recommended approval consistent with the county Comprehensive Plan.

Committee member Budde moved, and committee member La Tour seconded, to forward the rezoning request to the County Board with a recommendation for approval. The motion carried unanimously. The file will be referred to the County Board for final action.

The request was processed under Calumet County Zoning Ordinance Section 82‑137; staff advised that rezoning to Heartland is designed to align the parcel’s allowed uses with existing agricultural structures.
