Nash St., Hortonville, Wisconsin. Members present: Dave Moe, Richard Gruenewald, Mike Bellile, Julie Arendt Vanden Heuvel, Ryan Hansch, and Roger Retzlaff. Members Excused: Barry Hoff, Tom Banker Officials/Staff present: Administrator Nathan Treadwell, and Deputy Clerk-Treasurer Lauren Prochnow Approval of Minutes Motion [Moe, Arendt Vanden Heuvel] to approve the April 9, 2026, meeting minutes, unanimous voice vote, motion carried. Public Hearing Motion [Arendt Vanden Heuvel, Gruenewald] to open public hearing, unanimous voice vote, motion carried. Administrator Treadwell spoke on the property. It is owned by the football club. Looking at the property, there are Wetlands on the North side, only the south side is being developed. Proposed development could be on either Single Family or Public Institution…. The only concern is accessory structure and signage, can only do 1 structure in the current zoning code. They would need to do a conditional use otherwise. The current site plan doesn’t have a plan for exterior lighting, cannot shine on any exterior properties. There is nothing currently in the code for amplification of sound, could do it at a later time. Ordinance is based on complaints of the sound. Committee Member Moe – 2 buildings, what would be inside? Administrator Treadwell – Storage as of right now. Future plans for bathrooms, just trying to get them up first. Current plan would need to go through conditional use. Resident Ryan Pheifer -N2163 CR-M – I am the 1st home in Hortonia, and am the offensive coordinator for the Hortonville Football Club. Some people aren’t really thrilled by agricultural turning into practice grass. This is in my backyard; I’m the closest resident to this. I own 2000 of those 3000 feet. 307 playing in the district. In the Village, there is only one regulation field. This is a means to help this. It is all privately funded. 90% of the year it looks like green grass. Resident Paul Christenson – 821 Walnut St. – I am the one who submitted the variances, this is about teaching great skills as young kids become adults. I’m in my 7th year of coaching middle school. Looking for practice area to call home. In the past we have used various spots, annually do an application at Farmer’s Park in Greenville, it’s becoming a busy spot to compete for usage. We are looking to create a spot for football and green space. There are opportunities in the future for other uses i.e.. Pickleball, basketball courts…. Etc.. Resident Eric Garthus – 126 Honeysuckle Drive – number of us live to the north of the property. Our primary concern is to make guarantees. Is this a practice facility. No games, lighted scoreboard. PA system, no 15 games on a Saturday morning. I’d be interested in a comment. Resident Pheifer – when I first started, currently HS super stated all games will be on this field, so it should be a practice field. From a lighting standpoint, there will be some lighting. Under the current ordinances you’re not casting light. Resident Christensen – no PA system, the lighting can’t say there won’t be parking lot lighting as it comes to it via the ordinance before we comply with lighting. Scoreboards have not been discussed. Flag football uses one, but it would be minimal. It would be for practice. Resident Garthus – it would appease everyone’s peace of mind if you were to state that there won’t be games played on the field, only practices. Resident Pheifer – Todd Timm has been adamant that every game will be played on school grounds. The stadium is phenomenal; the only way it would happen is if a new administrator came in and rules were changed. Resident Mike Maigatter – 122 Honeysuckle Drive – The only thing I see being a problem, we were here when they sold that property. Rd M is a dangerous road but got approved by the highway department. Has this been approved? Administrator Treadwell – yes it has. Most likely the road will drop in speed. Resident Maigatter – Hortonville’s mission statement first and foremost is safety. Administrator Treadwell – The county’s philosophy has been speed studies. They know there is a subdivision and working with them to drop the speed. Usually this happens after, and I can’t control this. Resident Maigatter- second issue; my wife and I are trying to have kids and with a lot of loud noises, noise ordinance is something to worry about, lights shining, and is there not an alternative to organizing what we have. We have all these fields unused. Administrator Treadwell – Unfortunately for the village we only have authority over the zoning, not what is being done. Even if the zoning is denied tonight, they can still go forward with the process. Can go forward with 9000 ft per our current zoning ordinance. Resident Maigatter – does every public used parcel need bathrooms? Administrator Treadwell: We don’t have an ordinance. My guess is they’ll be putting in porta potties. Resident Tyler Goranson – 125 Honeysuckle Drive: Is it going to be able to be used by other kids? Resident Christensen: Yes it will be a space for kids to get off electronics. I think from a legality standpoint we’ll cross that bridge. This very much is a spot for children to enjoy. Resident Lisa Partika, 312 Honeysuckle Drive; Is this a phase one, and then it’s Rezoned industrial and we have pickleball courts, and other things being added on? Administrator Treadwell: The zoning of Public Institution encompasses schools, churches, that’s why this zoning code was developed. We didn’t want it to turn something into neighboring processes. You would have a say and be informed if there were any changes. As for other items and it fits in a park, they don’t really have room. Resident Garthus: You made the comment about notice. The houses, and the 7 houses would get the notice. Resident Matt Partika, 312 Honeysuckle : Where would they be exiting? Is there another intersection? Are they going to have the ability to have ambulance service as quickly as they have here? Ex AED, medical personnel there? Administrator Treadwell: road access is a county question. Ambulance service the village has ambulance service. For AED that is a school. Close Public Hearing Motion [Arendt Vanden Heuvel, Bellile] to close public hearing, unanimous voice vote, motion carried. Discussion and possible action to Rezone Parcel 240112700 from (R1) Single Family Residential to (PI) Public Institution Trustee Arendt Vanden Heuvel spoke on Public Instruction is different than Industrial. I just want to clear that up. Motion [Bellile, Retzlaff] to recommend to rezone parcel 240112700 from (R1) Single Family Residential to (PI) Public Institution. Unanimous voice vote, motion carried. Any other topics for future discussion Discussion regarding zoning code updates in July. Adjourn Motion [Hansch, Arendt Vanden Heuvel] to adjourn. Unanimous voice vote, motion carried.

Why: The zoning ordinance divides all lands into zones for various land uses, such as residential, commercial, and industrial, and sets regulations for the use of land and buildings and their spatial relationships (size of yards and open space, etc.). This is done to protect owners and citizens from uses that may detract from the enjoyment of their property and to ensure basic standards for health and safety. How: Meet with the Village Administrator (779-6011) to discuss your proposal prior to submitting an application. It may be suggested that you meet with neighboring property owners. To change the zoning of a property an ordinance must be passed by the Village Board, signed by the President, and published in the Village’s official newspaper. This process typically takes 6-8 weeks. After discussing your proposal with the Village Administrator, submit your application for rezoning to the Village Clerk’s Office. Your application should be submitted at least fifteen (15) days prior to the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting and should include the following:  Application form  Site plan showing proposed vehicular access points, location of all existing and proposed structures and parking areas  Any other information pertinent to understanding your request, or other information required by staff (i.e. engineering, transportation, or utilities)  Filing fee of $300.00 Procedure: After all submissions have been made and fees paid, the Village staff includes the application on the Planning and Zoning Commission agenda. Planning and Zoning Commission meetings are held on the second Tuesday of the month. Staff mails notices of the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting to property owners within 300 feet (or a minimum of the three closest property owners) and to other parties of interest. Staff also sends a copy of the request to various Village departments for review and comment. Staff submits a report and recommendations to the Planning and Zoning Commission. At the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting, applicants present their request and members of the public may state their support, opposition, or concerns about the proposed rezoning. The Commission considers the comments of the reviewing Village departments, recommendations of Village staff, presented testimony and information. Once the rezoning request is recommended, the Village staff will set a Public Hearing date before the Board of Appeals. The Village staff publishes an official notice of the Public Hearing in the Village’s official newspaper twice within fifteen days of the Public Hearing date. Ten days prior to the hearing, staff mails notices of the Public Hearing to property owners within 300 feet (or a minimum of the three closest property owners) and to other parties of interest. The Public Hearing is held, the rezoning request is reviewed and members of the public may state their support, opposition, or concerns about the proposed rezoning. At the Public Hearing, the Board of Appeals considers the comments of the reviewing Village departments, recommendations of the Public Hearing testimony and information. The approval may be granted at a later meeting depending on the complexity of the issue and ordinance or resolution preparations that may be required. The Board of Appeals may choose to approve or deny the rezoning request. If the rezoning is approved you may proceed by obtaining other required approvals. EXISTING CHURCH 14,000 S.F.
