Page 38 of 120 3 (B) Tax Collection So long as any part of the principal of or interest on the Notes remains unpaid, the County shall be and continue without power to repeal such levy or obstruct the collection of said tax until all such payments have been made or provided for. After the issuance of the Notes, said tax shall be, from year to year, carried onto the tax roll of the County and collected in addition to all other taxes and in the same manner and at the same time as other taxes of the County for said years are collected, except that the amount of tax carried onto the tax roll may be reduced in any year by the amount of any surplus money in the Debt Service Fund Account created below. (C) Additional Funds If at any time there shall be on hand insufficient funds from the aforesaid tax levy to meet principal and/or interest payments on said Notes when due, the requisite amounts shall be paid from other funds of the County then available, which sums shall be replaced upon the collection of the taxes herein levied. Section 6. Segregated Debt Service Fund Account (A) Creation and Deposits There shall be and there hereby is established in the treasury of the County, if one has not already been created, a debt service fund, separate and distinct from every other fund, which shall be maintained in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Debt service or sinking funds established for obligations previously issued by the County may be considered as separate and distinct accounts within the debt service fund. Within the debt service fund, there hereby is established a separate and distinct account designated as the "Debt Service Fund Account for General Obligation Promissory Notes, Series 2026A" (the "Debt Service Fund Account") and such account shall be maintained until the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes is fully paid or otherwise extinguished. There shall be deposited into the Debt Service Fund Account (i) all accrued interest received by the County at the time of delivery of and payment for the Notes; (ii) any premium which may be received by the County above the par value of the Notes and accrued interest thereon; (iii) all money raised by the taxes herein levied and any amounts appropriated for the specific purpose of meeting principal of and interest on the Notes when due; (iv) such other sums as may be necessary at any time to pay principal of and interest on the Notes when due; (v) surplus monies in the Borrowed Money Fund as specified below; and (vi) such further deposits as may be required by Section 67.11, Wisconsin Statutes. (B) Use and Investment No money shall be withdrawn from the Debt Service Fund Account and appropriated for any purpose other than the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes until all such principal and interest has been paid in full and the Notes canceled; provided (i) the funds to provide for each payment of principal of and interest on the Notes prior to the scheduled receipt of taxes from the next succeeding tax collection may be invested in direct obligations of the United States of America maturing in time to make such payments when they are due or in other investments permitted by law; and (ii) any funds over and above the amount of such principal and interest payments on the Notes may be used to reduce the next succeeding tax levy, or may, at the option of the County, be invested by purchasing the Notes as permitted by and subject to Section 67.11(2)(a), Wisconsin Statutes, or in permitted municipal investments under the pertinent provisions of the Wisconsin Statutes ("Permitted Investments"), which investments shall continue to be a part of the Debt Service Fund Account. Any investment of the Debt Service Fund Account shall at all times conform with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and any applicable Treasury Regulations (the "Regulations"). (C) Remaining Monies When all of the Notes have been paid in full and canceled, and all Permitted Investments disposed of, any money remaining in the Debt Service Fund Account shall be transferred and deposited in the general fund of the County, unless the County Board of Supervisors directs otherwise. Section 7. Proceeds of the Notes; Segregated Borrowed Money Fund The proceeds of the Notes (the "Note Proceeds") (other than any premium and accrued interest which must be paid at the time of the delivery of the Notes into the Debt Service Fund Account created above) shall be deposited into a special fund Page 39 of 120 4 (the "Borrowed Money Fund") separate and distinct from all other funds of the County and disbursed solely for the purpose or purposes for which borrowed. In no event shall monies in the Borrowed Money Fund be used to fund operating expenses of the general fund of the County or of any special revenue fund of the County that is supported by property taxes. Monies in the Borrowed Money Fund may be temporarily invested in Permitted Investments. Any monies, including any income from Permitted Investments, remaining in the Borrowed Money Fund after the purpose or purposes for which the Notes have been issued have been accomplished, and, at any time, any monies as are not needed and which obviously thereafter cannot be needed for such purpose(s) shall be deposited in the Debt Service Fund Account. Section 8. No Arbitrage All investments made pursuant to this Resolution shall be Permitted Investments, but no such investment shall be made in such a manner as would cause the Notes to be "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code or the Regulations and an officer of the County, charged with the responsibility for issuing the Notes, shall certify as to facts, estimates, circumstances and reasonable expectations in existence on the date of delivery of the Notes to the Purchaser which will permit the conclusion that the Notes are not "arbitrage bonds," within the meaning of the Code or Regulations to the County. Section 9. Compliance with Federal Tax Laws (a) The County represents and covenants that the projects financed by the Notes and the ownership, management and use of the projects will not cause the Notes to be "private activity bonds" within the meaning of Section 141 of the Code. The County further covenants that it shall comply with the provisions of the Code to the extent necessary to maintain the tax-exempt status of the interest on the Notes including, if applicable, the rebate requirements of Section 148(f) of the Code. The County further covenants that it will not take any action, omit to take any action or permit the taking or omission of any action within its control (including, without limitation, making or permitting any use of the proceeds of the Notes) if taking, permitting or omitting to take such action would cause any of the Notes to be an arbitrage bond or a private activity bond within the meaning of the Code or would otherwise cause interest on the Notes to be included in the gross income of the recipients thereof for federal income tax purposes. The County Clerk or other officer of the County charged with the responsibility of issuing the Notes shall provide an appropriate certificate of the County certifying that the County can and covenanting that it will comply with the provisions of the Code and Regulations. (b) The County also covenants to use its best efforts to meet the requirements and restrictions of any different or additional federal legislation which may be made applicable to the Notes provided that in meeting such requirements the County will do so only to the extent consistent with the proceedings authorizing the Notes and the laws of the State of Wisconsin and to the extent that there is a reasonable period of time in which to comply.

The facsimile signature of either of the officers executing the Notes may be imprinted on the Notes in lieu of the manual signature of the officer but, unless the County has contracted with a fiscal agent to authenticate the Notes, at least one of the signatures appearing on each Note shall be a manual signature. In the event that either of the officers whose signatures appear on the Notes shall cease to be such officers before the Closing, such signatures shall, nevertheless, be valid and sufficient for all purposes to the same extent as if they had remained in office until the Closing. The aforesaid officers are hereby authorized and directed to do all acts and execute and deliver the Notes and all such documents, certificates and acknowledgements as may be necessary and convenient to effectuate the Closing. The County hereby authorizes the officers and agents of the County to enter into, on its behalf, agreements and contracts in conjunction with the Notes, including but not limited to agreements and contracts for legal, trust, fiscal agency, disclosure and continuing disclosure, and rebate calculation services. Any such contract heretofore entered into in conjunction with the issuance of the Notes is hereby ratified and approved in all respects. Section 11.

Persons Treated as Owners; Transfer of Notes. The County shall cause books for the registration and for the transfer of the Notes to be kept by the Fiscal Agent. The person in whose name any Note shall be registered shall be deemed and regarded as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes and payment of either principal or interest on any Note shall be made only to the registered owner thereof. All such payments shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such Note to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. Any Note may be transferred by the registered owner thereof by surrender of the Note at the office of the Fiscal Agent, duly endorsed for the transfer or accompanied by an assignment duly executed by the registered owner or his attorney duly authorized in writing. Upon such transfer, the Chairperson and County Clerk shall execute and deliver in the name of the transferee or transferees a new Note or Notes of a like aggregate principal amount, series and maturity and the Fiscal Agent shall record the name of each transferee in the registration book. No registration shall be made to bearer. The Fiscal Agent shall cancel any Note surrendered for transfer. The County shall cooperate in any such transfer, and the Chairperson and County Clerk are authorized to execute any new Note or Notes necessary to effect any such transfer. Section 13. Record Date The 15th day of the calendar month next preceding each interest payment date shall be the record date for the Notes (the "Record Date"). Payment of interest on the Notes on any interest payment date shall be made to the registered owners of the Notes as they appear on the registration book of the County at the close of business on the Record Date. Section 14. Utilization of The Depository Trust Company Book-Entry-Only System In order to make the Notes eligible for the services provided by The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York ("DTC"), the County agrees to the applicable provisions set forth in the Blanket Issuer Letter of Representations, which the County Clerk or other authorized representative of the County is authorized and directed to execute and deliver to DTC on behalf of the County to the extent an effective Blanket Issuer Letter of Representations is not presently on file in the County Clerk's office. Section 15. Official Statement The County Board of Supervisors hereby approves the Preliminary Official Statement with respect to the Notes and deems the Preliminary Official Statement as "final" as of its date for purposes of SEC Rule 15c2-12 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Rule"). All actions taken by officers of the County in connection with the preparation of such Preliminary Official Statement and any addenda to it or final Official Statement are hereby ratified and approved. In connection with the Closing, the appropriate County official shall certify the Preliminary Official Statement and any addenda or final Official Statement. The County Clerk shall cause copies of the Preliminary Official Statement and any addenda or final Official Statement to be distributed to the Purchaser. Section 16. Undertaking to Provide Continuing Disclosure The County hereby covenants and agrees, for the benefit of the owners of the Notes, to enter into a written undertaking (the "Undertaking") if required by the Rule to provide continuing disclosure of certain financial information and operating data and timely notices of the occurrence of certain events in accordance with the Rule. The Undertaking shall be enforceable by the owners of the Notes or by the Purchaser on behalf of such owners (provided that the rights of the owners and the Purchaser to enforce the Undertaking shall be limited to a right to obtain specific performance of the obligations thereunder and any failure by the County to comply with the provisions of the Undertaking shall not be an event of default with respect to the Notes). Page 41 of 120 6 To the extent required under the Rule, the Chairperson and County Clerk, or other officer of the County charged with the responsibility for issuing the Notes, shall provide a Continuing Disclosure Certificate for inclusion in the transcript of proceedings, setting forth the details and terms of the County's Undertaking.

Record Book The County Clerk shall provide and keep the transcript of proceedings as a separate record book (the "Record Book") and shall record a full and correct statement of every step or proceeding had or taken in the course of authorizing and issuing the Notes in the Record Book. Section 18. Bond Insurance If the Purchaser determines to obtain municipal bond insurance with respect to the Notes, the officers of the County are authorized to take all actions necessary to obtain such municipal bond insurance. The Chairperson and County Clerk are authorized to agree to such additional provisions as the bond insurer may reasonably request and which are acceptable to the Chairperson and County Clerk including provisions regarding restrictions on investment of Note proceeds, the payment procedure under the municipal bond insurance policy, the rights of the bond insurer in the event of default and payment of the Notes by the bond insurer and notices to be given to the bond insurer. In addition, any reference required by the bond insurer to the municipal bond insurance policy shall be made in the form of Note provided herein. Section 19.

FISCAL NOTE: There are no fiscal obligations for the County associated with this resolution. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Portage County Board of Supervisors does enact and ordain as follows: The Future Land Use designation of parcel 010220918:09.01, totaling 41.63 acres, is hereby changed from L1 Enterprise Agriculture to L2 Intermediate Agriculture on the Town of Buena Vista Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map and is incorporated into Chapter 8 of the Portage County Comprehensive Plan 2024-2044; and the Portage County Zoning Ordinance Map is hereby amended by changing the zoning classification from A1 Exclusive Agricultural to A3 Low Density Agricultural.

This will allow the creation of a 5-acre lot for the purpose of constructing a new single-family dwelling. Planning and Zoning Committee Decision On August 25, 2026, the Portage County Planning and Zoning Committee voted (4-0) to recommend approval of this request. Basis for Approval 1. The A3 Low Density Agricultural District is intended to “provide for a broad range of rural- oriented land uses, including agriculture, forestry and open space. This District is also intended to preserve the rural character of certain outlying areas of Portage County, where only large lot residential developme nt is desirable, particularly where identified in locally adopted Comprehensive Plans.” This differs significantly from the A1 Exclusive Agricultural district, which is designed primarily to preserve productive farmland and support participation in the Farmland Preservation Program. Permitted uses in the A3 zoning district include but are not limited to single -family residences; parks and playgrounds; accessory buildings (no size limit); home occupations and professional offices; general agricultural uses (including crop production, dairying, livestock, hobby farms and beekeeping); greenhouses and plat nurseries; roadside produce stands; ponds; forest management, pine plantations, and Christmas tree farms. Additional uses may be allowed upon approval of a Special Exception. 2. The area s urrounding the subject parcel contains a mix of agricultural zoning districts. County Road BB functions as a dividing corridor. Lands east of the road are predominantly zoned A3 Low Density Agricultural, while the lands west of the road have a more varied pattern of agricultural districts, A1, A20, A2, A3 and A4. Page 56 of 120 Page 2 Furthermore, the Portage County Drainage District is located west of County Rd BB. Nearly all the land within the Drainage District is zoned A1 Exclusive Agriculture, consistent with the Town of Buena Vista Comprehensive Plan (agricultural policy #8), which recommends A1 zoning in the Drainage District. Although the subject property is near the Drainage District, it is not within it, so a change from A1 zoning may be appropriate. 3. The requested zoning is not consistent with the Future Land Use Map and Zoning/Land Use Compatibility Table found within the Town of Buena Vista Comprehensive Plan. According to the map, the subject parcel is planned for a future land use of L1 Enterprise Agriculture, but the Zoning/Land Use Compatibility Table does not indicate compatibility between the requested A3 zoning and L1 future land use. The petitioners request to amend the F uture Land Use Map designation of the parcel to L2 Intermediate Agricult ure is compatible with A3 zoning. Therefore, if the Future Land Use Map is amended, the subsequent rezoning to A3 will be consistent with the amended future land use designation. 4. Land Use Goal 3 of the Town of Buena Vista Comprehensive Plan seeks to “Preserve and protect lands that are aesthetically important to the community because they help give Buena Vista its rural character”. The associated policy limits development densities to one lot per 10 acres (“four per forty”), with a minimum lot size of 5 acres. The proposed 5-acre lot aligns with this density policy. As noted in Finding #2, agricultural policy #8 recommends A1 zoning for lands within the Portage County Drainage District. The subject parcel is not located in the Drainage District, so the policy doesn’t restrict consideration of A3 zoning. 5. Housing Goal 1 of the Portage County Comprehensive Plan calls for maintaining an adequate supply of housing to meet citizen’s needs. The creation of one rural 5-acre homesite contributes to the County’s housing supply and provides an additional low density housing option within the Town of Buena Vista. 6. On June 8, 2026, the Town of Buena Vista Plan Commission passed a resolution recommending approval of the Comprehensive Plan amendment and recommended approval of the rezoning. 7. On June 8, 2026, the Town Board of Buena Vista approved the Comprehensive Plan amendment by Ordinance and approved the rezoning.

Surrounding Zoning and Land Use Zoning: Land Use: North: A1 Exclusive Agricultural Agricultural South: A1 Exclusive Agricultural Agricultural East: A3 Low Density Agricultural Agricultural West: A20 Primary Agricultural Agricultural Intent of Request The petitioners propose to subdivide a five-acre lot from their 41.63- acre parcel. The A1 Exclusive Agricultural District requires a minimum of 35 acres for new lots, making the proposed 5-acre lot not possible under the current zoning. The requested A3 Low Density Agricultural District allows new lots of 5 acres or more, prompting the rezoning request. Page 58 of 120 Page | 2 Wisconsin Statute 66.1001 requires zoning map amendments to be c onsistent with the local Comprehensive Plan. The requested A3 Low Density Agricultural District is not compatible with the parcel’s current L1 Enterprise Agriculture future land use designation within the Town of Buena Vista Comprehensive Plan. Therefore, the petitioners also request a Future Land Use Map amendment to L2 Intermediate Agriculture to ensure zoning and future land use designations are consistent going forward. Findings 1. The A3 Low Density Agricultural District is intended to “provide for a broad range of rural - oriented land uses, including agriculture, forestry and open space. This District is also intended to preserve the rural character of certain outlying areas of Portage County, where only large lot residential developme nt is desirable, particularly where identified in locally adopted Comprehensive Plans.” This differs significantly from the A1 Exclusive Agricultural district, which is designed primarily to preserve productive farmland and support participation in the Farmland Preservation Program.

All lands within the District are zoned A1 Exclusive Agriculture, consistent with the Town of Buena Vista Comprehensive Plan ( agricultural policy #8 ) , which recommends A1 zoning in the Drainage District.

The board was NOT in favor of a joint project application with the Town of Plover and the Town of Stockton for the following reasons: 1. The Town of Buena Vista does not have minutes stating the road has a posted weight limit. This is one of the requirements to be considered for ARIP. 2. The town board does not favor removing the tree lines from the roadsides. Area farmers use the trees as windbreaks and removal would be against best agricultural practices. 3. It would be difficult to divide the bills between the three municipalities 4. It may be adequate and more financially feasible for Buena Vista to grind and pave their portion of the road rather than do a total reconstruction. 5.

This will allow the creation of a 5-acre lot for the purpose of constructing a new single-family dwelling. Planning and Zoning Committee Decision On August 25, 2026, the Portage County Planning and Zoning Committee voted (4-0) to recommend approval of this request. Basis for Approval 1. The A3 Low Density Agricultural District is intended to “provide for a broad range of rural- oriented land uses, including agriculture, forestry and open space. This District is also intended to preserve the rural character of certain outlying areas of Portage County, where only large lot residential developme nt is desirable, particularly where identified in locally adopted Comprehensive Plans.” This differs significantly from the A1 Exclusive Agricultural district, which is designed primarily to preserve productive farmland and support participation in the Farmland Preservation Program. Permitted uses in the A3 zoning district include but are not limited to single -family residences; parks and playgrounds; accessory buildings (no size limit); home occupations and professional offices; general agricultural uses (including crop production, dairying, livestock, hobby farms and beekeeping); greenhouses and plat nurseries; roadside produce stands; ponds; forest management, pine plantations, and Christmas tree farms. Additional uses may be allowed upon approval of a Special Exception. 2. The area s urrounding the subject parcel contains a mix of agricultural zoning districts. County Road BB functions as a dividing corridor. Lands east of the road are predominantly zoned A3 Low Density Agricultural, while the lands west of the road have a more varied pattern of agricultural districts, A1, A20, A2, A3 and A4. Page 75 of 120 Page 2 Furthermore, the Portage County Drainage District is located west of County Rd BB. Nearly all the land within the Drainage District is zoned A1 Exclusive Agriculture, consistent with the Town of Buena Vista Comprehensive Plan (agricultural policy #8), which recommends A1 zoning in the Drainage District. Although the subject property is near the Drainage District, it is not within it, so a change from A1 zoning may be appropriate. 3. The requested zoning is not consistent with the Future Land Use Map and Zoning/Land Use Compatibility Table found within the Town of Buena Vista Comprehensive Plan. According to the map, the subject parcel is planned for a future land use of L1 Enterprise Agriculture, but the Zoning/Land Use Compatibility Table does not indicate compatibility between the requested A3 zoning and L1 future land use. The petitioners request to amend the F uture Land Use Map designation of the parcel to L2 Intermediate Agricult ure is compatible with A3 zoning. Therefore, if the Future Land Use Map is amended, the subsequent rezoning to A3 will be consistent with the amended future land use designation. 4. Land Use Goal 3 of the Town of Buena Vista Comprehensive Plan seeks to “Preserve and protect lands that are aesthetically important to the community because they help give Buena Vista its rural character”. The associated policy limits development densities to one lot per 10 acres (“four per forty”), with a minimum lot size of 5 acres. The proposed 5-acre lot aligns with this density policy. As noted in Finding #2, agricultural policy #8 recommends A1 zoning for lands within the Portage County Drainage District. The subject parcel is not located in the Drainage District, so the policy doesn’t restrict consideration of A3 zoning. 5. Housing Goal 1 of the Portage County Comprehensive Plan calls for maintaining an adequate supply of housing to meet citizen’s needs. The creation of one rural 5-acre homesite contributes to the County’s housing supply and provides an additional low density housing option within the Town of Buena Vista. 6. On June 8, 2026, the Town of Buena Vista Plan Commission passed a resolution recommending approval of the Comprehensive Plan amendment and recommended approval of the rezoning. 7. On June 8, 2026, the Town Board of Buena Vista approved the Comprehensive Plan amendment by Ordinance and approved the rezoning.

Existing Use of Site The 29.27-acre parcel is used for agricultural production. Surrounding Zoning and Land Use Zoning: Land Use: North: A1 Exclusive Agricultural Agricultural and Residential South: A1 Exclusive Agricultural Agricultural East: A1 Exclusive Agricultural Agricultural West: A1 Exclusive Agricultural and Conservancy Agricultural and Residential Intent of Request Alan Pavelski, with permission from the property owners, is proposing to subdivide approximately 4 acres from the existing 29.27- acre parcel located southwest of the intersection of Porter Drive and Kennedy Avenue. The purpose is to construct a 70 x 140’ commercial building that will include office Page 77 of 120 P age | 2 space for garage door sales and service business, as well as warehouse space for storing overhead garage doors, openers, tools and related equipment. The business currently leases warehouse space elsewhere, and the proposed development would allow operations to consolidate and expand. The property is currently zoned A1 Exclusive Agricultural, which presents two conflicts with zoning requirements. First, the A1 district requires a minimum lot size of 35 acres for new ly created parcels. Neither the proposed 4-acre lot nor the remaining 25.27 acres meets this requirement. Second, the A1 district does not permit the proposed commercial use, which is technically considered a “contractor business and related storage yard”, a use that is permitted in the C4 Highway Commercial zoning district. To allow both the land division and the proposed commercial use, the applicant requests rezoning 4 acre to C4 Highway Commercial and the remaining 25.27 acres to A2 Agricultural Transition. The A2 district allows parcels as small as 1 0 acr es, making it an appropriate classification for the remainder of the property. Because Wisconsin Statute 66.1001 requires zoning map amendments to be c onsistent with the local Comprehensive Plan, a Comprehensive Plan Amendment is also necessary. The Town of Plover’s Future Land Use Map designates the p roperty as L3 Limited Agriculture/Mixed Use. While A2 is compatible with L3, C4 is not. As a result, a Comprehensive Plan Amendment is required to change the future land use designation for the 4-acre lot to Commercial. Findings 1. The intent of the C4 Highway Commercial District is to “ provide appropriate areas for large scale commercial uses, which serve a county-wide or larger regional area. Such uses shall be those generating large traffic volumes and/or requiring visibility and convenient access to major highways. It is not intended to be applied where access would be provided via roadways designated as minor collectors or local roads. Furthermore, it is not intended in close proximity to existing or planned concentrations of single family residential development.” In t his case, both Porter Drive and Kennedy Avenue are classified as local roads, which generally do not meet the access expectations described in the C4 district intent. However, the proposed contractor business and associated storage represent a low‑impac t commercial use that does not generate the high traffic volumes typically associated with C4 type development. As such, the nature of the proposed use may be more compatible with local‑road access than some other commercial operations. 2. T he intent of the A2 Agricultural Transition District is to “provide for a broad range of rural- oriented land uses, including agriculture, forestry and open space. This District is also intended to preserve the rural character of certain outlying areas of Portage County, where only large lot residential developme nt is desirable, particularly where identified in locally adopted Comprehensive Plans.” This differs from the A1 Exclusive Agricultural district, which focuses on preserving productive farmland and supporting the Farmland Preservation Program. P ermitted A2 uses include single-family residences, agricultural operations, home occupations, plant nurseries , roadside produce stands , and forestry related uses. Additional uses may be allowed through Special Exception approval. Page 78 of 120 Page | 3 3. The surrounding area is predominantly zoned A1 Exclusive Agricultural. While A2 Agricultural Transition zoning exists along Porter Drive to the west, approximately 0.36 miles from the subject property, it is not adjacent to the parcel. The nearest C4 Highway Commercial district is located 1.14 miles away along County Road R. Commercial zoning in the Town has historically been applied on a case -by-case basis. The nearby Feltz Dairy Store represents a commercial use that is accessory to agriculture (dairying ) and shows that limited commercial activity does exist in the area, but under agricultural zoning. 4. The proposed rezoning is partially consistent with the Town of Plover Comprehensive Plan. The Future Land Use Map designates the subject property as L 3 Limited Agriculture/Mixed Use, a classification that is compatible with the proposed A2 Agricultural Transition zoning, but not C4 Highway Commercial. Amending the Future Land Use map to designate the 4-acre commercial lot as Commercial will bring the proposed C4 rezoning into full consistency with the Comprehensive Plan. 5. The proposed rezoning to C4 Highway Commercial is supported by several C omprehensive Plan goals, objectives, and policies: a. Economic Development Goal A: Promote stabilization and expansion of the current economic base and creation of a range of employment opportunities. The proposed commercial building will expand the Town’s economic base by consolidating and growing an existing business, while also supporting local employment. b. Economic Development Policy #3: Direct commercial, industrial and other larger - scale business development to appropriate areas as identified on the land use map. This policy shows the Town intent to guide commercial development to suitable locations. Once the Future Land Use Map is amended to designate the 4- acre lot as Commercial, the proposed C4 Highway Commercial zoning will be fully consistent with his policy. c. Land Use Objective #6: “Commercial, industrial, and manufacturing uses are encouraged in a manner that minimizes conflicts with surrounding uses and enhances the Town’s tax base.” The proposed use is low‑impact, consisting primarily of storage of garage doors, parts and equipment for installation off -site. The development will also contribute positively to the Town’s tax base. 6. The proposed rezoning to A2 Agricultural Transition is supported by Comprehensive Plan goals and policy that future agri-business and preserve agricultural land: a. Land Use Policy #7: Support the continuance and growth of agri-business and agri-industry in appropriate locations. Rezoning the remainder to A2 maintains agricultural viability and ensures the land continues to support agricultural uses. b. Agricultural Goal #1: Preserve agricultural lands and maintain local conditions that support the Town’s economy . The A2 classification allows the majority of the original parcel to remain in agricultural production, supporting the Town’s agricultural economy while accommodating a small, separate commercial lot. 5. This request aligns with the Portage County Comprehensive Plan economic goal to “promote the stabilization and expansion of the current economic base and the creation of a range of sustainable employment opportunities”. 6. On May 12, 2026, the Town of Plover Plan Commission passed a resolution recommending approval of the Comprehensive Plan amendment and recommended approval of the rezoning. Page 79 of 120 Page | 4 7. On June 25, 2026, the Town Board of Plover approved the Comprehensive Plan amendment by Ordinance and approved the rezoning. Planning Department Conclusions and Recommendations (Subject to results of public hearing) Based on the discussion and positive recommendation from the Town of Plover Plan Commission and Town Board, and its consistency with the Portage County Comprehensive Plan, the Portage County Planning and Zoning Department staff recommends approval of the petitioner’s request to change the Future Land Use designation of 4 acres out of 29.27 acres included in parcel 030230813- 01 from L3 Limited Agriculture/Mixed Use to Commercial; and to amend the zoning classification from A1 Exclusive Agricultural to C4 Highway Commercial (4 acres) and A2 Agricultural Transition (25.27 acres).
