FREDONIA VILLAGE BOARD MEETING MINUTES
Thursday, February 19th, 2026 at 7:00 PM
Fredonia Government Center - Board Room
242 Fredonia Avenue, Fredonia, Wisconsin
1. President Lenz called the meeting to order at 7:00 PM, followed by the Pledge
of Allegiance.
2. Trustees Present: President Lenz, Trustee Abegglen, Trustee Franck, Trustee
Syring, Trustee Eippert, Trustee Van Roo.
Staff Present: Administrator Jenkins, Treasurer Upson, Clerk Johnson, Foreman
Heinen, Chief Weyker, Marshal Leet
3. Public Comments: None
4. Motion to Approve Minutes of the February 5th, 2026, Village Board of
Trustees Regular Meeting, and General Fund, Water and Sewer Invoices
made by Trustee Abegglen.
Seconded by Trustee Franck.
Passed by 6-0 voice vote.
5. Presentations
a) Presentation from Administrator Jenkins on Unaudited 2025 Financials.
Administrator Jenkins shared the unaudited end-of-year financials for
2025. He said the budget is a best guess and mid-year adjustments are
made based on actual revenues and expenditures. He reviewed revenues
and expenditures from each fund. Administrator Jenkins said each annual
budget commits money to be added to the Village’s fund balance. There is
approximately $110,000 in the 2025 budget to be rolled over into fund
balance.
6. Report on Village Operations by:
VILLAGE OF FREDONIA
Find Your Moments Here
a) Village President: President Lenz shared the Joint ALS-Paramedic
Program is fully staffed for the first time and providing a greater level of
safety to the Village and partner communities. He said that strategic
investment in equipment, like the sewer vac and blowers, allowed the
DPW to easily respond to the breakdown of the primary clarifier at the
WWTP.
b) Village Administrator: Administrator Jenkins met with Ramboll
Environmental and shared that, while the contamination plume in the
Stoney Creek subdivision is stable, the DNR has requested vapor
intrusion testing at homes within 100 feet. He anticipates another year
before the lots can begin to be sold. A business, Greazille, is exploring the
purchase of 755 Tower Dr., currently a vacant building. Director Paulus
has determined that the WWTP can tolerate contaminants that the
company may discharge into the system. Fredonia First is gaining
momentum and the draft developer’s agreement with Hillcrest is moving
forward. Administrator Jenkins is working with Ehlers and Port Washington
State Bank on the upcoming bond package to fund the projects the Board
has approved for 2026 and 2027. PWSB had the best terms: 4% over a
ten-year period. He highlighted the ways in which Village staff finds ways
to save money, and used an example of DPW crews rebuilding a hydrant
instead of purchasing a new one. McMahon has presented the results of
the Fire & EMS study to the participants, and it will be brought to the
governing bodies of each municipality at a joint meeting in April.
Administrator Jenkins continues to explore grant opportunities including
with the Lake Michigan Alliance that could help with stormwater
management plans, WEDC opportunities to fund bathrooms at Freedom
Park, AARP grants to fund pedestrian safety, and federal opportunities to
help fund the purchase of a fire truck.
c) Village Marshal: Marshal Leet said that January and February are slow
months for his department. He encourages the Board to reach out to him
with any special projects they may want him to work on, including
ordinance updates. He also stated that he is planning speeding
enforcement along Fillmore St. Fredonia Ave for spring. Trustee Van Roo
asked about a recent law enforcement action at Spring Hill Apartments.
Marshal Leet said it was not his team responding and was unaware of the
issue.
d) Fire Chief: Chief Weyker shared that no new volunteers were on-boarded
in January. The paramedic program is fully staffed for the first time, a huge
weight off his shoulders. The McMahon study had no surprises for him;
the findings indicate that joint training should be prioritized and a reduction
of equipment across northern Ozaukee County would be appropriate. He
reviewed January’s call volumes. Trustee Syring asked if Chief Weyker
plans to start tracking mutual aid calls separately. He does and is working
out how to effectively do that.
e) DPW Director: Foreman Heinen said that Director Paulus’s report is on
file.
f) Village Clerk: Clerk Johnson shared that the website migration has stalled
due to problems separating Village and Town content. Civic Plus has
scheduled a meeting of all relevant managers, and she is hopeful they will
identify a resolution. Trustee Van Roo asked if staff has explored other
vendors and if the continued delays are costing the Village money. Clerk
Johnson said staff negotiated the same rates as the previous contract and
the existing website can stay up until midyear. The delays are frustrating
but are not costing the Village any money and there will be no disruptions
in service. Administrator Jenkins reminded the Board that the Village did
not request the migration and is required to move the website to a new
platform. He has investigated other vendors, but Clerk Johnson felt that
Civic Plus is the gold standard for municipal websites, even though this
experience doesn’t speak to that. Clerk Johnson worked with the Village’s
legal team, the WEC and county on the ballot for the Spring election and it
has gone to print. IPAV begins on March 24.
g) Village Treasurer: Treasurer Upson has been working on implementing
new billing software that will more effectively invoice for Village services
such as the lab. She said the CLA auditors have been wonderful to work
with, and she is making many of the adjustments that Baker Tilly did in the
past. She hopes that future audits will be more of a true audit, instead of
auditors doing bookkeeping.
h) Building Inspector: Not present, report on file.
i) Ozaukee County District 2 Supervisor: Not present, report on file.
7. Items for Action and/or Discussion
a) Motion to Award Project 2026-02: Fillmore and Soney Creek Park
Parking Lots and Fillmore St. Culvert Project to Ozaukee County
Highway Department, Not to Exceed $65,120.00 made by Trustee
Syring.
Seconded by Trustee Franck.
The Public Works Committee approved foregoing the public bid process
and instead went directly to the Ozaukee County Highway Department for
a quote to reconstruct Fillmore St. and Stoney Creek parking lots. The
Village budgeted $62,000.00 for the project and county quoted
$65,120.00. Administrator Jenkins added that Village crews can take on a
portion of the work to bring the cost of the project within the budgeted
amount. In addition, the County will replace a failing culvert that crosses
Fillmore St. The culvert will take at least a year to settle before any
resurfacing or reconstruction of Fillmore Street can occur.
Passed by 6-0 voice vote.
b) Discussion and Possible Action on the Emergency Purchase of a
Replacement of a 2006 Sterling Snowplow Truck with Salter.
Administrator Jenkins and Director Paulus reached out to local snow
removal contractors. None were willing to plow just a portion of the Village;
however, they did provide quotes for the entire Village. Treasurer Upson
used their quotes for equipment, salt and labor and the Village’s actual
costs for equipment, salt and labor to create a cost-per-snow event. The
Village had approximately 25 plowable snow events this winter. Treasurer
Upson calculates that the Village would pay $160,000 to an external
contractor to handle those 25 events; the Village’s cost to respond to
those events would be $66,000. Trustee Franck expressed concern
regarding damage to roads and private property if using an outside
contractor. Trustee Syring reached out to truck dealers and the least
expensive option he was able to find was $293,000. He thanked Director
Paulus for finding the Village a competitive price. Administrator Jenkins
recommended paying for the truck from 2026 cash reserves: 30% from the
CIP Fund, 20% from the Sewer Fund, and 50% from the Water Fund. The
2026 budget has approximately $156,000 earmarked for reserves and he
recommends transferring 30% of the cost of the truck to the CIP Fund
from the money set aside for reserves. Trustee Van Roo thanked staff for
conducting the research into private contractors.
Motion to Approve the Emergency Purchase of a Replacement Truck
and Plow System Not to Exceed $271,000; 30% From the CIP Fund,
50% From the Water Fund, and 20% From the Sewer Fund made by
Trustee Franck.
Seconded by Trustee Van Roo.
Passed by 6-0 voice vote.
c) Discussion and Possible Action on Crosswalk Safety.
Administrator Jenkins, Director Paulus, and Village Engineer Isak
Fruchtman identified three potential locations along Fredonia Ave. for
enhanced crosswalk safety measures: the intersections at S. Milwaukee
St, S. Wilson St., and Wisconsin St. The northwest and southwest sides of
S. Wilson St is the most likely candidate to receive enhanced crosswalk
safety measures, including a RRFB crosswalk sign. Wisconsin and
Milwaukee Streets do not have sufficient space to accommodate ADA
requirements and would need a “bump-out” into Fredonia Ave.
Administrator Jenkins stated that Director Paulus strenuously objected to
any bump-out into Fredonia Ave. Snow removal operations and road work
would be more dangerous and difficult to accomplish with bump-outs. The
Village would have to purchase some part of the right-of-way from
Brouillette Back & Neck Clinic to install a RRFB crosswalk at Fillmore St.
Administrator Jenkins shared that the light-up sign is not the only safety
enhancement the Village can make. Staff can paint crosswalks using
highly visible techniques at very little cost.
Motion to Approve Installation of RRFB and Improved Pedestrian
Crosswalk Signage at the Northwest and Southwest Intersection of
S. Wilson St. and Fredonia Ave made by Trustee Abegglen.
Seconded by Trustee Franck.
Passed by 6-0 voice vote.
8. Correspondence: None
9. Items for Future Consideration: None
10. Motion to Adjourn made by Trustee Syring.
Seconded by Trustee Franck.
Passed by 6-0 voice vote.

Item Description: 2026-27 Bonding Package Resolution
Report Prepared By: Admin Jenkins
Report Date: 3-2-2026 Meeting Date: 3-5-2026
Strategic Priority?
o Smart Residential, Industrial, or Commercial Growth
o Responsible Fiscal Priority
o Supports Public Safety and Infrastructure
o Encourages Open Communication and Collaboration
o Strong Sense of Community
Fiscal Summary: $821,300
Budget Line Item: N/A
Wisconsin Statute or Local Ordinance: N/A
Background Analysis: The 2026 CIP and Annual Operating Budget includes borrowing funds for
reconstruction of Washington Avenue, Stoney Creek Park and Fillmore Street Municipal Parking
Lots, and for the purchase of a mini-excavator and a loader. With this equipment being purchased
and reconstruction numbers secured, we can now bond for this debt. PWSB gave us the most
competitive offer at 4% over 10 years – resulting in a mill rate breakdown as provided by Ehlers as
attached.
Staff Comments: As a reminder, due to State levy limits, municipalities may not increase their
general tax levy to gain “extra cash”, which results in us either going to referendum to increase the
general levy, or take on debt when making large capital purchases. We have been strategically
balancing debt financing as to not impact taxpayers with large spikes or declines. This latest
borrowing is front-loaded, meaning a large payment is due the first year, and then shrinks over the
term of the loan, allowing us to continue this path.
Administrator’s Recommendation: Approve
Action Requested: Motion to Approve Resolution 2026-1: A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING
BORROWING FROM PORT WASHINGTON STATE BANK

Background Analysis: As Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools become increasingly integrated into the
software platforms the Village utilizes, it is important to establish clear guidelines and expectations
to protect the Village, our residents, and the information entrusted to us. Recently, sample policies
were shared by the City of Cedarburg, which adapted its framework primarily from the GovAI
Coalition, an organization specializing in best practices for governmental use of AI technologies.
Staff Comments: These draft policies were reviewed by me, legal counsel, and Trustee Richard
Abegglen, who has a background in information technology. Trustee Van Roo has also emphasized
the importance of proactively establishing processes to guide the responsible use of these tools.
If adopted, these policies would create both a new section within the Employee Handbook and a
standalone Village policy, making the standards enforceable moving forward. At present, staff have
utilized Microsoft’s built-in AI tools, such as Copilot, as well as platforms like ChatGPT, primarily for
document and email review and editing.
Administrator’s Recommendation: Approve
Action Requested: Motion to Approve Adoption of Village Policy 4-3 and Employee Handbook
Section VII-A, Pertaining to Use of Artificial Technology (AI)

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Policy
Village of Fredonia
I. Purpose
This policy establishes a governance framework for AI systems utilized by, or on behalf of, the
Village of Fredonia. It ensures that AI systems benefit the community while mitigating potential
risks.
The key objectives of the AI Policy are to:
• Provide clear guidance for Village staff, including full-time, part-time, interns,
consultants, contractors, partners, and volunteers involved in purchasing, configuring,
developing, operating, or maintaining AI systems for the Village of Fredonia.
• Ensure that AI systems adhere to the strategic goals, reflecting the Village’s values in
how AI systems are acquired, configured, developed, operated, and maintained.
• Define roles and responsibilities for the Village’s use of AI systems.
• Establish processes to assess and manage risks associated with AI systems.
• Align AI governance with the Village’s existing data governance, security, and privacy
measures in coordination with the Village’s IT provider.
• Define prohibited uses of AI systems.
• Establish procedures to safely retire AI systems that no longer serve the Village’s needs.
• Ensure AI usage aligns with applicable local, state, and federal laws, as well as Village
policies.
The Village defines “artificial intelligence” as a machine-based system that, for given human-
defined objectives, can make predictions, recommendations, or decisions influencing real or
virtual environments. AI systems process data through automated analysis, creating models that
can inform or perform actions. An “AI system” includes any data system, software, hardware,
application, tool, or utility that functions, in part or in full, using AI.
II. Scope
This policy applies to:
1. All AI systems used by the Village or it’s vendors that provide AI solutions for the
Village.
III. Guiding Principles for Responsible AI Systems
1. Human-Centered Design: AI systems prioritize the public’s well-being and are
evaluated for community impact.
2. Security & Safety: AI systems safeguard confidentiality, integrity, and availability,
ensuring reliability and minimizing risks to individuals, society, and the environment.
3. Privacy: AI systems protect personal and sensitive data from unauthorized access,
disclosure, and manipulation.
2
4. Transparency: AI systems' purposes and usage are communicated to the public, with
data sources, models, and governing policies documented and accessible.
5. Equity: AI systems support fair outcomes, mitigating biases to reduce harm to affected
individuals.
6. Accountability: Roles and responsibilities in AI deployment and maintenance ensure
adherence to laws and regulations through human oversight.
7. Effectiveness: AI systems meet their intended objectives, delivering reliable and accurate
outcomes.
8. Workforce Empowerment: Village staff are trained and supported in using AI through
education and collaboration.
IV. Roles & Responsibilities
• Village Administrator: Responsible for overseeing technology resources, policies,
projects, and services, including those related to AI.
• Village Administrator (via IT consultant): Oversees enterprise security infrastructure,
cybersecurity operations, and ensures compliance with Village security policies.
• Village Administrator (via IT consultant): Manages digital privacy practices and
responsible technology use, ensuring compliance with privacy policies for AI systems.
• Village Departments: Responsible for adhering to this policy and its updates and
ensuring annual compliance checks.
• Village Administrator: Notifies departments of any policy updates.
• Village Attorney: Advises on legal risks associated with AI use.
• Village Administrator: May inspect and direct adjustments to AI system usage by
departments or partners.
• Village Treasurer: Oversees procurement of AI systems, ensuring vendors comply with
Village standards.
V. Policy
When managing AI systems, the Village will:
1. Uphold the Strategic Priorities.
2. Conduct an AI Review, coordinated by the Village administrator, to assess risks.
3. Obtain or create technical documentation (e.g., AI FactSheet) for AI systems.
4. Require contractors to comply with applicable legal standards and documentation.
5. Follow an Incident Response Plan in the event of an AI-related incident, overseen by the
Village Administrator or designee.
3
Prohibited Uses
Certain AI applications are prohibited due to high sensitivity and risk, including:
• Real-time covert biometric identification.
• Emotion analysis based on computer vision.
• Fully automated decision-making with no human oversight and substantial individual
impact.
• Social scoring of individuals.
• Manipulation of vulnerable groups through cognitive or behavioral methods.
• Autonomous weapons systems.
Staff are required to notify their supervisor and the Village Administrator of any incident
in which an AI system causes harm, error, or unintended negative consequences.
Sunset Procedures
If an AI system ceases to benefit Fredonia residents, its usage must be halted unless an
exception is granted by the Village Administrator or Village Board. If an abrupt halt
would disrupt Village services, a gradual phase-out shall occur.
Public Records
The Village adheres to public records laws and retains and discloses records per current
procedures.
Policy Enforcement
All Village staff and vendors involved with AI systems must comply with this Policy.
VI. Violations of the AI Policy
Non-compliance with the AI Policy, may result in disciplinary action, up to termination. Third-
party violations may lead to contract breaches or damages. Legal violations may be referred to
authorities.
VII. Terms & Definitions
Artificial Intelligence: Machine-based system for making predictions, recommendations, or
decisions.
Algorithm: Series of logical steps to transform inputs into outputs.
AI System: Includes any system automating processes or analyzing data with minimal human
input.

VIII. Acknowledgment
This policy was created with GovAI coalition templates. This policy reflects efforts of over 150
state and local agencies committed to ethical, community-centered AI use.
SECTION V11-A: USE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELIGENCE (AI)
The Village recognizes that the use of AI tools can potentially assist employees with the performance of
job duties. However, there are many risks. To ensure the protection of confidential information and the
integrity of our operations, as set forth below, all employees who wish to use AI tools must receive
management approval and, if granted, comply with the below best practices.
(a) Evaluation of AI tools. Employees must evaluate the utility and security of any AI tool before using it.
This includes reviewing the tool's security features, terms of service, and privacy policy. Employees
should also review the reputation of the tool developer and any third-party services used by the tool.
But most importantly, employees must receive management approval prior to using any AI tool after
explaining the manner in which it will be used and the benefits to the Village.
(b) Protection of confidential data. In using any AI tool, employees must not upload or share any
confidential, proprietary, or protected data without prior written approval from IT Director. This
includes data related to customers, employees, or partners. Similarly, employees must ensure any AI
tool does not utilize confidential or copyrighted information of a third party.
(c) Access control. Employees must not give access to any AI tools approved for Village use to anyone
outside the Village without prior approval from the Administrator and implementation of processes as
required to meet security compliance requirements. This includes sharing login credentials or other
sensitive information with third parties.
(d) Compliance with security policies. Employees must apply the same security best practices we use for
all Village and customer data. This includes using strong passwords, keeping software up-to-date, and
following the Village's data retention and disposal policies.
Request for Board Consideration
Item Description: 415 Fredonia Ave CSM and Re-Zoning Request
Report Prepared By: Admin Jenkins
Report Date: 3-3-2026 Meeting Date: 3-5-2026
Strategic Priority?
o Smart Residential, Industrial, or Commercial Growth
o Responsible Fiscal Priority
o Supports Public Safety and Infrastructure
o Encourages Open Communication and Collaboration
o Strong Sense of Community
Fiscal Summary: N/A
Budget Line Item: N/A
Wisconsin Statute or Local Ordinance: N/A
Background Analysis: Ms. Hannah Cholip has submitted a request related to the property at 415
Fredonia Avenue that includes a preliminary Certified Survey Map (CSM) and a proposed zoning
map amendment. The request involves reconfiguring two adjoining parcels and rezoning the parcel
containing the existing residence from B-1 Central Business District to RS-3 Single-Family
Residential District. This request follows enforcement concerns regarding residential use occurring
as the primary use within the B-1 zoning district.
Two actions are proposed:
1. Review and potential approval of the preliminary CSM
2. Consideration of a zoning change
These were recommended for approval by the Plan Commission 5-1 at the March 2
nd, 2026
meeting.
Background:
415 Fredonia Ave is a B-1 zoned commercial property. In 2023, the Village approved the
division of this parcel from its parent parcel to the west, which currently houses a hair salon and
a nail business. B-1 zoning allows for residential uses only when they are accessory to a
business. In other words, the residence was originally intended as living quarters for the
businesses next door. When the property was split, the Plan Commission acknowledged that it
could not be used solely for residential purposes under B-1 zoning, and the original property
owner did not request a rezone at that time.
The property was last listed for sale in July 2024 as a commercial property. Attached are the
"Commercial" disclosure and MLS listing, which invites prospective buyers to “bring your business,”
along with the special assessment letter from our staff confirming its commercial designation and
residency restrictions.

•
Additionally, earlier in 2024, an inquiry was made about purchasing the property as a residential
home. After consulting with staff, the potential buyer opted not to proceed due to the zoning
restrictions. All these documents and efforts indicate a commercially-listed property.
In August 2024, Ms. Hannah Cholip purchased the property with the intention of using it solely
as a residence, despite several indications that this was not in compliance with the zoning. In
October 2024, Ms. Cholip contacted to Village Hall to apply for a chicken permit, at which point it
became clear that she had purchased the property with the intent of using it as a home. (Note:
chickens are not allowed on business-zoned properties). Both Ms. Cholip and her realtor were
informed of the zoning restrictions, and we provided information on potential business uses for
the property alongside residential use.
After a period of time, the Village Marshal and I reached out to Ms. Cholip for a status update and
conducted a zoning inspection, the results of which are attached. The inspection found that a
minimal effort had been made to establish a compliant business by repurposing one room into an
office space. Despite this effort, it remained evident that the primary use of the property is as a
residence. Ms. Cholip was given three options:
1. Start an appropriate business,
2. Request a rezone, or
3. Begin the sale and evacuation of the property.
Ms. Cholip has now chosen to apply to adjust her property lines and rezone a portion of her
property to allow primarily residential use for her property while keeping the bordering property
commercial for future use.
Staff Comments: The Village’s long-range Comprehensive Plan designates properties along
Fredonia Avenue in the center of the Village as a commercial corridor. The vision has been to
cultivate and develop a cohesive “downtown” district over time. In 2023, the Plan Commission
acted in alignment with that vision when it split the property and retained its commercial
designation.
The 2026 recommendation by the current Plan Commission regarding 415 Fredonia Avenue
represents a departure from that previously established direction and the Village’s Comprehensive
Plan. Decisions that contradict the Village’s adopted Comprehensive Plan should be made
thoughtfully and with full consideration of their long-term implications.
If approved, the Village would rezone the property to a classification that is inconsistent with the
Comprehensive Plan, thereby permitting Ms. Cholip to reside at the property without restriction. The
structure was originally constructed as a single-family residence, and no exterior or structural
modifications would be required for continued residential use.
If denied, the Village would need to consider pursuing enforcement action, which could include
litigation related to the improper use of the property.
As Zoning Administrator, my responsibility is to administer and uphold the adopted zoning code and
Comprehensive Plan. Based on those obligations, I recommend denial of the requested change.
Should the Board choose to approve the amendment, it would further reinforce the need to formally
revisit and update the Comprehensive Plan to ensure it reflects the Village’s current vision and
long-term development goals.
Administrator’s Recommendation: Deny

415 Fredonia Avenue New CSM and Re-Zoning Request
1-28-2026
Commissioners,
Ms. Hannah Cholip has submitted a request related to the property at 415 Fredonia Avenue that
includes a preliminary Certified Survey Map (CSM) and a proposed zoning map amendment.
The request involves reconfiguring two adjoining parcels and rezoning the parcel containing the
existing residence from B-1 Central Business District to RS-3 Single-Family Residential District.
This request follows enforcement concerns regarding residential use occurring as the primary use
within the B-1 zoning district.
Two actions are proposed:
1. Review and potential recommendation to the Village Board of the preliminary CSM
(Plan Commission recommendation followed by final action by the Village Board).
2. Consideration of a zoning change (Plan Commission recommendation following a public
hearing; final action by the Village Board).
Certified Survey Map
A draft CSM prepared by Adam DeGroot of Parish Surveying and Engineering reallocates
approximately 4,300 square feet from Proposed Lot 1 to Proposed Lot 2. This adjustment allows
the parcel containing the existing residence to meet the minimum lot area, frontage, and setback
requirements of the RS-3 zoning district.
The remaining parcel (Proposed Lot 1) would retain its B-1 zoning and be configured as a flag
lot, with potential access from Fredonia Avenue. While the parcel meets minimum dimensional
standards under the zoning code, its layout may limit viable commercial development options.
Rezoning
The proposed rezoning of the residential parcel from B-1 to RS-3 is inconsistent with the
Village’s Comprehensive Plan. The remaining parcel retaining B-1 zoning would remain
consistent with the plan; however, its configuration and adjacency to residential uses may impact
future commercial use or marketability.
Staff Comments
If the Planning Commission has an appetite to consider the requested rezoning, a public hearing
should be set for March 2
nd, 2026 at 7:00PM. Staff recommend handling both the CSM request
and the rezoning request in unison. A recommendation for both items may be made at the March

2nd Planning Commission meeting following the public hearing. Staff are seeking direction and
feedback from the Plan Commission regarding the acceptability of the proposed CSM and
whether there is interest in considering a rezoning request that is inconsistent with the
Comprehensive Plan. Deviation from the Comprehensive Plan may require an amendment to the
Plan as part of the rezoning process. This feedback will assist the applicant and her consultants in
determining how to proceed.
Please contact staff with any questions prior to the meeting.

ZONING CHANGE EXHIBIT MAP & PROPOSED CSM
HANNAH CHOLIP - AMENDED ZONING CHANGE APPLICATION - 1/28/2026
NARRATIVE
THE PURPOSE OF THIS EXHIBIT MAP IS TO DETAIL THE PROPOSED ZONING CHANGE AND CERTIFIED SURVEY MAP
AS REQUESTED BY HANNAH CHOLIP IN THE ZONING CHANGE AND LAND DIVISION APPLICATIONS DATED
1/28/2026. THE PROPOSED ADJUSTED CSM LOT 2 WILL CREATE AN RS-3 ZONE COMPLIANT RESIDENTIAL LOT.
THE PROPOSED CSM LOT 1 WILL STAY IN THE B-1 ZONING DISTRICT, AND MEETS ALL ZONING REQUIREMENTS.
USE STATEMENT
THERE IS NO CONTEMPLATED CHANGE OF ACTUAL USE. THE EXISTING HOUSE AT 415 FREDONIA AVENUE HAS
HISTORICALLY BEEN UTILIZED AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING. PRIOR TO THE 2023 LAND DIVISION OF CSM #4213
THIS DWELLING WAS A PERMITTED ACCESSORY USE IN THE B-1 ZONE. AFTER THE LAND DIVISION AND THE SALE
TO CHOLIP, THE RESIDENTIAL USE WAS DEEMED NON-COMPLIANT BECAUSE OF A NON-EXISTENT OR
UN-ACCEPTABLE BUSINESS USE OR OCCUPANCY. THE FUTURE INTENT IS TO CONTINUE THE HISTORICAL
RESIDENTIAL USE.
ZONING CHANGE STATEMENT
THE 2023 LAND DIVISION OF CSM #4213 DIRECTLY CREATED THE SCENARIO WHERE A NON-COMPLIANT USE
COULD ARISE. THE PLAN COMMISSION WAS AWARE OF THIS, AND STATED IN THE 11/07/2022 MINUTES "IT
WAS NOTED THAT THE HOUSE IS CURRENTLY ZONED B-1 AND CANNOT BE USED SOLELY OF LIVING QUARTERS;
HOWEVER SOMEONE CAN LIVE THERE AS LONG AS THERE IS BUSINESS ACTIVITY AS WELL."
THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES COMPRISE A MIXED-USE AREA. OF THE EIGHT (8) ADJOINING PROPERTIES, SIX
(6) ARE ZONED RESIDENTIAL USE. IT IS UNDERSTOOD THAT THE VILLAGE CHERISHES ITS LIMITED B-1 CENTRAL
BUSINESS DISTRICT ZONING AREAS. THIS ZONE CHANGE TO RS-3 WOULD KEEP THE ACTUAL HISTORICAL
RESIDENTIAL USE OF ADJUSTED LOT 2, WHILE PRESERVING A VACANT MARKETABLE B-1 BUSINESS PROPERTY
WITH THE PROPOSED LOT 1.

To Whom It May Concern,
My name is Hannah Cholip and I am applying to get my property, 415 Fredonia Ave,
Fredonia, Wisconsin 53021, rezoned. I am a nurse at a hospital in the area. I bought this
property in August and it was my first home buying experience. I closed on the property and a
short time later attempted to apply to have chickens on my property. I was informed by the
village clerk that my property was zoned as commercial therefore I could not have chickens. It
was not clear to me that I was purchasing a commercial property. I have never owned a
business and never intended to start a business. There is a house and a garage on the property
and I am currently using it as a residence. It not only benefits me personally to have it rezoned
but the community as well. A property benefits a community more as residential because it
provides a stable housing base for residents, which can lead to increased community
engagement, improved local services, a stronger sense of belonging, and a more vibrant local
economy by supporting nearby businesses and contributing to the tax base. I want to contribute
to the community and make this my home. This property does not resemble a business, it
resembles a home, therefore it would be better used as a residential property than a commercial
property.
Thank your for your consideration,
Hannah Cholip

NOTE: It is hereby expressly understood that this memorandum statement is issued subject to
errors and omissions and shall not be binding upon the City, Village or Town providing this
memorandum. In accordance with Sec. 19.21 (2), Wisconsin Statutes, you are entitled to
examine the public records of this office and verify the information obtained therefrom to your
own satisfaction.
Mr. Lundberg stated that a variance will be needed to allow only 30 parking stalls;
currently Village code would require 1 parking space per 250 square feet of building
area which would calculate to 36.4 parking stalls.
It was noted that JT Engineering did a review of the submitted plans. Comments and
recommendations from JT Engineering were given to Mr. Lundberg.
Motion by Gerry Weiland, seconded by Jerry Jacque, to approve the Dollar
General Plans contingent on completion of the punch list items from JT
Engineering. Motion carried.
Motion by Trustee Long, seconded by Dan Wellskopf, to recommend the Board of
Appeals approve a variance to reduce parking requirements from 36.4 parking
stalls to 30 parking stalls. Motion carried.
Review and approval of proposed lot division - Lot 6, in block 5 of Assessor's
Plat- Fredonia/ 415-421 Fredonia Avenue
Brian Feucht explained that currently there are two buildings on the property, a house
and a salon. The water and sewer currently go to the house and then to the salon all on
one meter. Mr. Feucht is requesting to split the property into two separate lots and have
each building have its own water and sewer service. Mr. Feucht is recommending to
keep the existing curb box and split the service just inside the curb so that no road cuts
will be necessary. Driveway access agreements will be needed.
It was noted that the house is currently zoned B1 and cannot be used solely for living
quarters; however someone can live there as long as there is business activity as well.
Motion by Trustee Long, seconded by Jerry Jacque, to approve the lot division as
proposed with water and sewer service being split and a water meter being
placed at each property. Motion carried.
Review and approval of proposed of request to merge Lots as proposed by
Lundman Development Corporation (LDC)
Lundman Development Corporation (LDC) currently owns 421-435 Wheeler Avenue as
well as the 4 vacant lots east of the property and one small strip of land to the south.
Mr. Lundman is requesting to combine the 5 vacant parcels with 421-435 Wheeler
Avenue and have all property zoned M1. He noted he is planning ahead for possible
future expansion for Peterson Products Co. while maintaining some green space.
Trustee Long stated that public hearing will be needed due to the zoning change. The
public hearing will be before the Plan Commission on December 5, 2022.

Re: 415 Fredonia A venue, Village of Fredonia
Parcel ID # 09-050-05-06-002
Dear Ms. Cholip:
I serve as the Village Attorney for the Village of Fredonia . The Village has notified me of an
ongoing issue involving the above-referenced property. I know you have been in contact with
Village staff for several months regarding this matter , and are aware of the issue. To ensure there
are no misunderstandings , I will summarize that issue here. The property is zoned B-1 Central
Business District. The permitted uses for a B-1 zoned property can be found at Section 575-26 of
the Code of the Village of Fredonia. The Code permits , as an accessory use, "[r]esidential
quarters for the owners, proprietor, commercial tenant , employee , or caretaker located in the
same building as the business." Code§ 575-27(C)(3) (emphasis added). There is no business
established at the property; therefore, there can be no residential use . The Village is aware the
property is being used solely for residential purposes.
The Village has referred this matter to my office for legal action. Prior to bringing court
action against you, the Village has authorized me to give you a deadline of Monday, October
27, 2025 to furnish me and the Village Administrator with an actionable solution for how you
intend to bring your use of the property into compliance . If an acceptable , actionable solution is
not presented by this deadline , and you continue to use the property for residential purposes in
violation of the B-1 zoning, I expect the Village will direct me to bring an action against you in
circuit court to seek an injunction against your continued residential use of the property. This
action may also subject you to forfeitures or other monetary penalties.
If you are represented by an attorney in this matter, I can only communicate with your
attorney . If so, please provide this letter to your attorney, and ask them to contact me. If not, I
will await your response by Monday, October 27.

NARRATIVE
Along with Village Administrator Jenkins, I met with Hannah Cholip at this
residence to assist the village with a home inspection that the Village
had scheduled.
Upon arrival, we met with Hannah who allowed us to enter and inspect the
property. The nature of the inspection was related to how the property was
being used as opposed to how it was zoned.
Upon entry, it was immediately apparent that the building was currently
being used as a residence. Personal possessions and furnishings were
readily apparent, and there was no sign of any other function of either a
commercial, retail, or industrial use.

That said, the building was small, and the design and layout of the
building clearly appeared to be more of a residential building.
The
entrance and entrance way especially was designed more for residential
than public or consumer access.
Although it appeared conceivable the
building could be used for commercial or retail purposes, the size,
access, and layout of the building appeared challenging in that regard.
I stood by as Administrator Jenkins reviewed options with Cholip.
Cholip allowed us to take pictures which I have attached.

Fredonia Police Department Continuation
Incident Report Number
25-000877 !
Incident Location:
415 Fredonia Ave, Fredonia, WI 53021
NARRATIVE
I was asked by the Fredonia City Administrator to accompany him on a
compliance check at 415 Fredonia Avenue. This is related to the question of
whether the building was being used for its zoned purpose.
Upon arrival, we met with the owner, Hannah Cholip, who allowed us entrance.
By outward appearance, the building appeared to be a small, single-family two
story residence. My understanding in speaking with the village administrator
is that the property is zoned as commercial use.
Inside the building appeared to be small, with two small rooms and an attached
small kitchen. I had attended a similar inspection of this location several
months ago, and many of the personal effects that were present then had been
removed. The lower level was fairly impersonal, and the Western room of the
lower level was taken up by what Cholip described as her home office.
A full-sized file cabinet was against one of the walls. There was a table set
up as a desk, containing a computer which Cholip advised she used in her home
health nurse business. Her work at the location being a combination of
scheduling her home nurse visits, communications with her clients and other
vendors related to that, and processing the "paperwork" the business involved.
There did not appear to be any personal items or possessions in that room
indicated other than her claimed usage. The room appeared to be the one in
which her home business was focused. I estimated the room to be approximately
12 by 12 feet.
The easter of the two rooms contained furniture and items consistent with what
I would describe as a living room, however, again a number of the personal
possessions that were in that room at the last visit were no longer there.
