Submitted by: Rebekah Leto, Town Planner PLANNING & ZONING LLC 1 TOWN OF BROOKFIELD STAFF REPORT TO: Town of Brookfield Plan Commission FROM: Rebekah Leto, AICP, Town Planner MEETING DATE: September 15, 2026 RE: Site Plan/Plan of Operation Change for Famous Meats, located at 19035 W. Bluemound Road, Unit 5 The following report is provided for cursory review prior to action. Specifics relating to the submitted documents of this application may be referenced in the Meeting Packet distributed by the Clerk. Property owner: Brooktown Plaza LLC, c/o Gary Storts Applicant/Operator: Lalitha Keerthipati Business Name: Famous Meats Zoning: B-2 Limited General Business District Project Description and Use Brooktown Plaza is multi-tenant shopping complex that includes two specialty grocery stores, a nail salon, dry cleaner, a restaurant and other retail spaces. The subject unit was previously a cigar shop. The proposed use is a meat and seafood butcher shop call Famous Meats, which will offer products such as chicken, fish, goat meat and other specialty butcher products. Employees will cut, trim, portion and package meat and seafood for customers. There will also be refrigerated and frozen display cases of pre-packaged foods. Additional retail items will be sold such as spices, sauces and marinades. No restaurant use is proposed so customer traffic is considered consistent with surrounding businesses. There are other locations of this franchise in Michigan and Naperville, IL. The change of use triggers a Site Plan and Plan of Operation review. No exterior changes are proposed, including lighting, landscaping or grading. No outdoor storage is proposed. Signage will be proposed at a later date. Building and Floor Plan The unit is approximately 1,200 sq. ft. The space will be internally remodeled and will have a small customer area with display coolers for meat and fish. The remainder of the space is kitchen and prep space, cooler, freezer, office and a public bathroom. Loading and Unloading: Delivery trucks will park on the side of the building and will be delivered via hand truck through the back hall in the rear of the building. Deliveries are expected once per week. Famous Meats SPPO PLANNING & ZONING LLC 2 Employees: Three (3) empoyees. Hours of Operation: Monday-Thursday, 11:00 am – 9:00 pm Friday-Sunday 9:00 am – 10:00 pm Parking: There are between 122 and 165 spaces on site, using information from a broker listing and the original site plan on file at the Town, respectively. Considering the types of uses within this building are generally quicker trips, there appears to be ample parking available. This specific use would require approximately 8 spaces on its own; less if you were to only utilize the square footage of the customer sales and service area as per the zoning code. However, that information was not provided to calculate the exact number of spaces required. Dumpster: The applicant is proposing to use the existing dumpster on site. Additional receptacles will be added, if needed. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the Site Plan/Plan of Operation (Conceptual/Preliminary/Final) for Famous Meats, located at 10935 W. Bluemound Road, Unit 5, subject to the following conditions: 1. A Permit from the Waukesha County Environmental Health Division shall be provided to the Town Planner prior to Occupancy being granted. 2. All required town permits shall be obtained, including a Building Permit and Occupancy Permits for Building and Fire Inspection.

The discussion arose from an existing business seeking to relocate within the Town, where the current ordinance would prohibit the proposed location due to the one-mile separation requirement. Draft ordinance amendments were initially discussed that would allow the business to proceed; however, the Town Board indicated that it may be appropriate to evaluate the broader ordinance and consider whether such uses should be permitted in additional locations throughout the Town, subject to appropriate standards and safeguards. Vehicle sales, service, and repair uses currently require approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) in the B-2 District. The only specific conditional use standard is as follows: "Automotive, marine, and aircraft sales, service, repair, and storage facilities in the B-2 Business District, provided that there shall be not more than two automotive facilities or two marine facilities or two aircraft facilities in a one-mile radius." Historically, the Town has maintained the separation requirement as a means of preserving the character of the Town's commercial corridors, particularly along West Bluemound Road, and to avoid an overconcentration of automobile-oriented uses. However, given changing market conditions, the number of commercial properties available for redevelopment, and the types of business inquiries being received by staff, it may be appropriate to modernize the ordinance by regulating the physical impacts of these uses through design and operational standards in addition to property location and size requirements. In 2017, the Wisconsin Legislature adopted 2017 Wisconsin Act 67, which significantly changed the administration of conditional use permits. Under Act 67, a conditional use permit must be approved if the applicant demonstrates compliance with the standards established in the zoning ordinance and any conditions imposed by the municipality. As a result, conditional use permit standards should be objective, measurable, and related to identifiable land use impacts. General concerns regarding market competition, business saturation, or subjective determinations regarding the desirability of a particular use are increasingly difficult to rely upon as a basis for denial. After consideration discussion, the Town would like to continue protecting the Bluemound corridor from additional automobile uses. However, it has been expressed that there may be some opportunity around the I-94/U.S.H 18 interchange for limited expansion of automobile uses. The enclosed map PLANNING & ZONING LLC 2 shows the buffer area surrounding the interchange with properties that are 5 acres or more, in accordance with the proposed standards. The enclosed draft ordinance defines property characteristics where automobile sales may be appropriate and adds site design, operational, landscaping, lighting, buffering, pedestrian circulation, and vehicle display standards. The intent of these standards is to ensure that future vehicle sales uses are compatible with surrounding development, maintain the visual character of the Town's commercial corridors, avoid impacts on adjacent residential properties, and provide clear and measurable review criteria consistent with the requirements of Act 67. The proposed standards focus on: • Access and frontage requirements to ensure such uses are located on appropriate roadway classifications; • Screening regulations; • Location and design of service and repair operations; • Enhanced lighting standards to reduce glare and impacts on neighboring properties; • Enhanced landscaping requirements • Regulation of vehicle display areas and parking layouts; and • Pedestrian access between customer parking areas and principal buildings. Collectively, these standards shift the Town's regulatory approach from one based primarily on separation distances to one based on site design, operational performance, and compatibility with surrounding land uses. Staff believes this approach provides greater flexibility for property owners while preserving the appearance and character of the Town's commercial corridors and establishing objective review criteria that are more consistent with current state law. The Conditional Use requirement will remain in place and will continue to allow a case-by-case review guided by these standards.
