Resident raises concerns about SR-1 overlay; commission agrees to consider modifying language

Village of Spring Green Plan Commission / Downtown Design Committee / Joint Extraterritorial Zoning Committee · August 1, 2026

Summary

A resident, John Rasmussen, said SR-1 overlay restrictions hurt parcel marketability in Forest View Estates; commissioners discussed possible wording changes and Prem said the commission can commit to modifying the language and will notify Rasmussen when the item returns to the agenda.

John Rasmussen raised concerns—via email and in remarks—that restrictions in the SR-1 Village Special Design Review overlay negatively affect the sale and marketability of lots in Forest View Estates. Greg Prem summarized the SR-1 district and highlighted the affected areas on the zoning map.

Ed Lilla said he did not want to remove the overlay but would consider modifying requirements. Prem stated, “We can commit to modifying the language to help with the marketability of the lots.” The commission agreed to reevaluate the overlay language and Wendy Crary will notify Rasmussen when the matter returns to a future agenda. No formal action was taken at the meeting.
