MEMORANDUM
_________________________________________________________
POLICE DEPARTMENT
VILLAGE OF FOX POINT
TO: FOX POINT BOARD OF TRUSTEES
FROM: CHIEF CHRISTOPHER FREEDY
DATE: DECEMBER 2, 2025
REGARDING: POLLING LOCATION CHANGES
As the emergency manager and police chief, I have worked with the Municipal Clerk to identify
emergency response procedures related to election procedures and the polling locations. These procedures
are reviewed each year before the elections to ensure th e election process will proceed with minimal
interruptions in the event of an emergency.
With the addition of polling “central count” at the Village Hall in recent years, Clerk / Treasurer Bruckman
and I identified an issue with our emergency response plan given all municipal locations were now
dedicated to poll activities on election day. As we explored options and developed contingency plans, the
most logical solution was the combination of the two polling places, Longacre and the Police Department,
into one location at Longacre Pavilion.
The polling location combination became the logical choice after evaluating the polling data from the
recent elections and discussing the operational issues;
• During the most recent presidential election (a high turnout / politically contentious event) data
showed upwards of 70% of residents participated in early absentee voting.
• Multiple polling locations require twice the election / polling staff; a financial burden as well as a
staffing / personnel challenge.
• Recruitment of polling staff continues to be a challenge for all municipalities as volunteers retire /
resign.
• Utilizing all municipal facilities removes local options for emergency planning and response
• Parking and access at the Police Department is less than ideal
Recommendation
After meeting with the Clerk / Treasurer, we identified the Longacre Pavil ion as the primary polling
location for Fox Point would allow for more efficient staffing with the current staff, provide access to all
residents, and provide a contingency plan for the police department to serve as either a polling location or
central count in the event of an emergency involving elections. We recommend that the Village Board
consider this change and adopt Longacre Pavilion (7343 N. Longacre Rd, Fox Point) as the primary (and
only) polling location for the Village of Fox Point.

upon the terms and conditions described herein in writing, and the Applicant is required to accept
the terms and conditions of the same in its entirety in writing.

prohibited except as may be otherwise specifically provided herein. In case of a question as to
whether a use is permitted, the question shall be submitted to the Plan Commission fo r

6. No Nuisances, and Compliance with Applicable Laws. No use is hereby authorized unless the use
is conducted in a lawful, orderly and peaceful manner. Nothing in this order shall be deemed to
authorize any public or private nuisance or to constitute a waiver, exemption or exception to any
law, ordinance, order or rule of either the municipal governing body, the County of Milwaukee, the
State of Wisconsin, the United States of America or other duly constituted authority, except only to
the extent that it authorizes the use of the subject property above described in any specific respects
described herein. This order shall not be deemed to constitute a building permit, nor shall this order

Property described, without extension or expansion other than as noted herein.
8. Abandonment. Should the permitted conditional use be abandoned in any manner, or discontinued

and all procedures in place at the time must be followed.
11. S everability. Should any paragraph or phrase of this conditional use permit be determined by a
Court to be unlawful, illegal or unconstitutional, said determination as to the particular phrase or
paragraph shall not void the rest of the conditional use and the remainder shall continue in full force
and effect.

Re: WCL Construction - CUP
Overview
WCL Construction has applied for conditional use approval to establish a contractor trade office and
indoor storage sub-tenant space at 8035 N Port Washington Road (currently occupied by Billy Goat
Roofing). The application under Section 745-18 would allow for contractor administrative offices, and
construction material storage, within the D Business District.
Background
Billy Goat Roofing received CUP approval on the subject site in October of 2025. During Plan Commission
investigation, Billy Goat stated an intent to sub-lease a portion of the space. Any new use would require
CUP approval, as well as to satisfy the requirements of the approved Conditional Use Order. The D
Business District, Section 745-18, allows for both permitted and conditional uses within the boundaries
of the district.
R
equest
The applicant is proposing the following:
• Hours of operation Monday – Friday, from 8:30 AM – 5 PM
• Storage and Warehouse Use: construction materials including lumber, sheetrock, and other
materials
• Office Space: 300 sqft of office space is proposed. No retail activity is included in application
materials.
U
nder Section 745-18(C)(4), offices of licensed trade professionals are a permitted use by right in the D
Business District.
However, the accessory functions of indoor storage of materials extend beyond the scope of a
“professional office” and require conditional use approval under the following:
• §745-18(D)(1)(o): Substantially similar uses – for contractor-related storage and operations not
explicitly listed.
Outdoor storage is prohibited unless expressly permitted by the Plan Commission and Village Board under
§745-18(F)(6), (F)(9). The applicant has not indicated outdoor storage or equipment.
VB Agenda Packet 12-09-2025
Page 40 of 104
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Village Board approve the conditional use order.
1. All tools, materials, and equipment must be stored indoors. No outdoor storage of materials,
equipment, or trailers is permitted.
2. Vehicle parking limited to work vehicles. No semi-truck or trailer storage is allowed on site.
3. Applicant must submit and maintain a parking plan identifying stalls for employees, clients, and
company vehicles, subject to approval by the DPW Director. Fleet parking may not interfere with
required customer/employee parking. Any overflow or future demand must be met on the site.
4. Hours of operation limited to Monday – Friday, from 8:30 AM – 5 PM, including any outdoor
vehicle activity. No idling of vehicles overnight.
5. Refuse containers must be fully screened in compliance with §745-18(F)(6).
6. Any additional tenant must be separately reviewed for compliance with §745-18.

sub-tenant space at 8035 N Port Washington Road (currently occupied by Billy Goat Roofing). The
application under Section 745-18 would allow for contractor administrative offices, and construction
material storage, within the D Business District.

Billy Goat Roofing received CUP approval on the subject site in October of 2025. During Plan Commission

CUP approval, as well as to satisfy the requirements of the approved Conditional Use Order. The D

The applicant is proposing the following:

• Storage and Warehouse Use: construction materials including lumber, sheetrock, and other

• Office Space: 300 sqft of office space is proposed. No retail activity is included in application
materials.
Under Section 745-18(C)(4), offices of licensed trade professionals are a permitted use by right in the D
Business District. WCL Construction must provide a professional Wisconsin trade license in order to
allow the office component compliant as a permitted use.
However, the accessory functions of indoor storage of materials extend beyond the scope of a
“professional office” and require conditional use approval under the following:
• §745-18(D)(1)(o): Substantially similar uses – for contractor-related storage and operations not

VB Agenda Packet 12-09-2025
Page 42 of 104
Outdoor storage is prohibited unless expressly permitted by the Plan Commission and Village Board under
§745-18(F)(6), (F)(9). The applicant has not indicated outdoor storage or equipment.
Plan Commission Review
Staff recommends that the Plan Commission discuss the following with the applicant:
Confirmation of Storage
• Applicant has stated that all material storage will be indoors.
o Material delivery details include shipments from Amazon, Menards, and Home Depot.
Parking Requirements
The applicant has not supplied a parking plan. Per Section 745-18(F)(7), this project requires 5 parking
stalls per 1,000 sq ft of office space. However, application materials detail 300 sq ft of rented office
space and a total of 3 employees.
Previous applications for this site have detailed 15-20 parking stalls. Of which, Billy Goat planned for 12
stalls and received a parking reduction. Given that there appears to be plenty of parking for employees
of Billy Goat and WCL Construction, as well as possible visitors, Staff recommends that the Plan
Commission accept the proposed 3 stalls for this tenant, conditioning the approval on submittal of a
formal parking plan, subject to review by the DPW Director prior to issuance of the CUP.
Neighborhood Compatibility
• Confirm hours of operation to ensure residential compatibility.
o Stated hours of operation in the application are Monday – Friday, from 8:30 AM – 5 PM.
• Ensure garbage and recycling containers are screened per code.
• Determine whether work vehicles contain backup alarms
Recommendation
Should the Plan Commission feel comfortable with the proposed use, Staff recommends that the Plan
Commission recommend that the Village Board approve the conditional use request (following a
mandatory public hearing) subject to the following conditions:
1. An issued State of Wisconsin professional trade license must be submitted to the Village under
Section 745-18(C)(4)
2. All tools, materials, and equipment must be stored indoors. No outdoor storage of materials,
equipment, or trailers is permitted.
3. Vehicle parking limited to work vehicles. No semi-truck or trailer storage is allowed on site.
4. Applicant must submit and maintain a parking plan identifying stalls for employees, clients, and
company vehicles, subject to approved by the DPW Director. Fleet parking may not interfere
with required customer/employee parking. Any overflow or future demand must be met on the
site.
5. Hours of operation limited to Monday – Friday, from 8:30 AM – 5 PM, including any outdoor
vehicle activity. No idling of vehicles overnight.
6. Refuse containers must be fully screened in compliance with §745-18(F)(6).
7. Any additional tenant must be separately reviewed for compliance with §745-18.
8. Any exterior modifications to the site (landscaping, parking lot, lighting, signage) require site
plan approval by the Village Board under §745-18(E).

prohibited except as may be otherwise specifically provided herein. In case of a question as to
whether a use is permitted, the question shall be submitted to the Plan Commission fo r
recommendation to the Village Board, and then to the Village Board for determination.
6. No Nuisances, and Compliance with Applicable Laws. No use is hereby authorized unless the use

authorize any public or private nuisance or to constitute a waiver, exemption or exception to any
law, ordinance, order or rule of either the municipal governing body, the County of Milwaukee, the
State of Wisconsin, the United States of America or other duly constituted authority, except only to
the extent that it authorizes the use of the subject property above described in any specific respects
described herein. This order shall not be deemed to constitute a building permit, nor shall this order
constitute any other license or permit required by Village ordinance or other law.

Property described, without extension or expansion other than as noted herein.
8. Abandonment. Should the permitted conditional use be abandoned in any manner, or discontinued
in use for twelve (12) months, or continued other than in strict conformity with the conditions of the
original approval, or should the Applicant be delinquent in payment of any monies due and owing
to the Village, or should a change in the character of the surrounding area or the use itself cause it
to be no longer compatible with the surrounding area or for similar cause based upon consideration

plan that the Village Board, in its sole discretion, finds to be substantial shall require a new permit,
and all procedures in place at the time must be followed.
11. S everability. Should any paragraph or phrase of this conditional use permit be determined by a
Court to be unlawful, illegal or unconstitutional, said determination as to the particular phrase or
paragraph shall not void the rest of the conditional use and the remainder shall continue in full force
and effect.
12. Most Restrictive Applies . If any aspect of this conditional use permit or any aspect of any plan
contemplated and approved under this conditional use is in conflict with any other aspect of the
conditional use or any aspect of any plan of the conditional use, the more restrictive provision shall
be controlling as determined by the Plan Commission.

Re: Destin’s Childcare and Learning Academy LLC - Daycare
Overview
Shawntel Walton is proposing a daycare center, Destin’s Childcare and Learning Academy LLC, in the
lower level of Congregation Sinai, 8223 N Port Washington Rd.
Background
Congregation Sinai is a house of worship, built in the 1950s, located at 8223 N Port Washington Rd.
In the 1970s, the Children’s Activity and Achievement Center, and in the 1990-2000s, the North Shore
Children’s center, were located on the site providing childcare services, in addition to the primary use as
a house of worship.
Request
The applicant’s submitted materials propose a daycare center, operating Monday – Friday, from 8 AM –
5 PM, servicing 40 children. However, during the Plan Commission meeting on December 1, the
applicant noted hours of operation of 6AM – 6PM and will not be in operation during Jewish High
Holidays.
10 employees are proposed for the daycare. No external modifications to the site are proposed.
Institutional uses are governed by Section 745-20 of the Fox Point Municipal Code. A daycare is not
explicitly listed as a permitted institutional use. However, the code provides flexibility through Section
745-20(A)(2)(e) for accessory and community-service provisions. Houses of worship commonly operate
early-childhood programs, preschools, and daycares across the country; further evidence exists
childcare uses which have operated on the site. A childcare center located in the lower level of the
synagogue could reasonably be considered accessory given the historical precedent, that the use is
located within the same building, that the mission of a house of worship is to service the needs of the
community, and that the service could be provided to both congregation families and members of the
public.
VB Agenda Packet 12-09-2025
Page 48 of 104
Findings
The Plan Commission found that the standards have been met and that the proposed use is:
• Appropriate in the location proposed;
• Compatible with the neighborhood;
• Not detrimental to the property values of surrounding property; and
• In keeping with the residential character and quality of the Village.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Village Board approve the F Institutional District Use subject to the following
conditions:
• Establish hours of operation
• Supply a parking plan which satisfies the Municipal Code
• Obtaining other required licenses, permits, and approvals. This includes but is not limited to
building permits, permits completed to the satisfaction of the Director of Public Works, and/or
Milwaukee County and State of Wisconsin approvals.

a house of worship.
Request
The applicant is proposing a daycare center, operating Monday – Friday, from 8 AM – 5 PM, servicing 40
children. 10 employees are proposed for the daycare. No external modifications to the site are
proposed.
Institutional uses are governed by Section 745-20 of the Fox Point Municipal Code. A daycare is not
explicitly listed as a permitted institutional use. However, the code provides flexibility through Section
745-20(A)(2)(e) for accessory and community-service provisions. Houses of worship commonly operate

synagogue could reasonably be considered accessory given the historical precedent, that the use is
located within the same building, that the mission of a house of worship is to service the needs of the
community, and that the service could be provided to both congregation families and members of the
public.
The applicant has not submitted a parking plan. Per application materials, 10 parking stalls will be
assigned to the daycare employees by the property owner. Per section 745-20(D)(2)(b), the user must
supply the following:
VB Agenda Packet 12-09-2025
Page 50 of 104
• One parking space for employees, including teachers (part- and full-time), administrators (part-
and full-time), and support staff (part- and full-time)
• One and one-half parking spaces shall be provided per classroom to allow for visitor parking
• One space shall be provided for every five students 16 years and older
The applicant has not detailed the ages of children to attend the daycare; however, it is unlikely that
children aged 16 or older will attend. Given that assumption, the daycare must provide adequate
parking stalls for employees, as well as visitor parking. Application materials detail 10 employees, which
each require one parking stall each, and 5 classrooms, which equates to 7.5 parking stalls. Given the
transient nature of daycare attendees, long-term parking should not be necessary for operations besides
employees and visitors; by code 18 stalls. Since no new parking areas are proposed, any stalls allocated
by the synagogue would come from the total number of stalls already on site.
The application materials do not detail information on any outdoor activities for children attending the
daycare.
Process
§745-20 of the Fox Point Municipal Code regulates use of institutional districts. The Plan Commission
will study the presentation from the applicant and make a recommendation to the Village Board, who
will hold a public hearing and determination.
The Plan Commission shall study such application and make its report to the Village Board advising the
Village Board whether or not the Plan Commission considers that the standards have been met. The
standards to be applied are whether the proposed project is;
• Appropriate in the location proposed;
• Compatible with the neighborhood;
• Not detrimental to the property values of surrounding property; and
• In keeping with the residential character and quality of the Village.
Recommendation
Should the Plan Commission have studied the proposal and wish to make a recommendation to the
Village Board, Staff recommend the following findings and conditions:

Re: Brewery/Taproom Concept – PWO Approval
Overview
John Degroote has applied for Port Washington Overlay (PWO) zoning approval at 8000 N Port
Washington Road. The application under Section 745-22.5 would allow for an addition and adaptive reuse
of the existing principal structure on the site to establish and allow a brewery with taproom operations.
Process
Section 745-22.5 (PDF) specifies the approval procedure for a PWO request. Following submission of a
complete application, the request initially appeared at the November 11, 2025 Village Board meeting
where the application was referred to the Plan Commission.
The Plan Commission met on December 1, 2025 to study and investigate the feasibility of the project for
appropriateness and desirability. The Plan Commission made a unanimous recommendation back to the
Village Board who will hold a mandatory public hearing prior to making a determination. Public hearing
mailers were sent to all properties within 500 feet of the subject property.
Plan Commission Action – December 1, 2025
The Plan Commission unanimously made the following findings, conditions, and recommendations to
the Village Board:
Findings (per Section 745-22.5(E)(2))
• That the proposed development will be adequately served by off-street parking and truck
service facilities.
• That the locations for entrances and exits have been designed to prevent unnecessary
interference with the safe and efficient movement of traffic on surrounding streets.
• That the architectural design, landscaping, control of lighting, and general site development will
result in an attractive and harmonious service area compatible with the surrounding
neighborhood.
VB Agenda Packet 12-09-2025
Page 57 of 104
Conditions
• Establishing hours of operation. If noise complaints or late-night disturbance complaints are
received, the applicant shall take corrective action to resolve those complaints to the
satisfaction of the Village Manager.
• Establishing hours of operation for outdoor dining/seating separate from indoor operations.
• Establishing hours, location, amplification, and direction of any music.
• Obtaining other required licenses, permits, and approvals. This includes but is not limited to site
plan approval, building permits, Engineering/DPW permits completed to the satisfaction of the
Director of Public Works, Milwaukee County or State of Wisconsin approvals, right-of-way
agreements, and recording the final PWO Development Agreement with the Village Board.
Recommendations to Village Board
• That the Village Board approve the PWO project subject to conditions.
• That the Village Board find the project meets the intent of Section 745-22.5 and the adopted
Comprehensive Plan.
• That the Village Board accept the Plan Commission’s determination that structural conditions
exist on the site which support deviation of the Built-to Line requirement under Section 745-
22.5(D)(1)(b).
Recommendations and Action
Staff recommends that the Village Board approve the Port Washington Overlay zoning ordinance subject
to adopting the findings, conditions, and recommendations of the Plan Commission, in addition to any
condition raised during discussion, and direct the Interim Village Manager and Village Attorney to
execute a development agreement per Section 745-22.5(F)(3).

Re: Brewery/Taproom Concept – PWO Approval
Overview
John Degroote has applied for Port Washington Overlay (PWO) zoning approval at 8000 N Port
Washington Road. The application under Section 745-22.5 would allow for an addition and adaptive reuse
of the existing principal structure on the site to establish and allow a brewery with taproom operations.
Background
The former Northpoint Service Center is a vacant property which has been in a state of abandonment
and underutilization, subject to code compliance enforcement, and for sale for periods of time in the
last twenty years. The Small Area Planning Study (PDF) in 2015 identified feasibility of redevelopment at
Port Washington and Bradley Road.
John Degroote, a Fox Point resident and CEO of New Barons Brewing Cooperative, has been operating
the Fox Point beer garden partnership with the Village since early 2022.
To assist with the redevelopment of the Port Washington Road commercial corridor, Village Staff
drafted the Port Washington Overlay Zoning District (PDF) which was unanimously adopted by the
Village Board in January of 2025 as Section 745-22.5. Compared to Conditional Use approval, the Village
Board maintains more regulatory authority over a planned development utilizing a zoning overlay.
Process
Section 745-22.5 (PDF) specifies the approval procedure for a PWO request. Following submission of a
complete application, the request initially appeared at the November 11, 2025 Village Board meeting
where the application was referred to the Plan Commission.
Once referred, the Plan Commission will study and investigate the feasibility of the project for
appropriateness and desirability. The Plan Commission will then make a recommendation back to the
Village Board who will hold a mandatory public hearing, including mailers sent to all properties within
500 feet of the subject property, prior to making a determination.
VB Agenda Packet 12-09-2025
Page 59 of 104
Request
The applicant is proposing to create a retail space and production facility for a Brewery/Taproom
concept. The PWO allows Conditional Uses based off of the underlying zoning district, Section 745-18 D
Business District (LINK), such as premises which sell alcoholic beverages, retail and service stores,
restaurants, and other similar uses.
While the proposed use of a Brewery/Taproom and related principal structure addition could be
considered a Conditional Use under the D Business District, the applicant’s proposal for an addition to
the principal structure requires flexibility in setbacks which the Village Board may grant within the PWO.
The flexible setbacks allow the proposed addition to be situation in a manner which allows for more
parking, green space/plantings, and better site circulation than may be possible within the D Business
District regulations.
The brewery is a proposed adaptive reuse of the 1,671 sqft existing service station with a principal
structure addition expanding to the north and west, adding retail area of 2,188 sqft. Parking for food truck
service along the west façade of the new addition is provided for to allow for a rotating menu. Indoor
seating and a serving area is proposed in addition to outdoor seating both adjacent to the taproom and in
the grassy area near Bradley Road. Removable bollards will be placed along the pervious paved walking
area to protect outdoor guests from automobile circulation in the parking areas.
Operations
The proposal specifies two main functions of the business: beer production, and a retail taproom for
patrons.
Brewery
Per application documents, the brewery function will employ two individuals who will brew and
primarily produce beer when the retail portion of the business is not in operation, identified as
Monday-Friday from 9AM – 5PM. The brew space, located within the existing gas station building, will
be separate from the retail area which would be located in the proposed addition. Brewery
operations such as refuse collection, deliveries, or administrative business work will occur when the
taproom is not open.
Taproom
The second main function of the proposal would add a taproom in the newly created space adjacent
to the existing gas station service center and would be regularly staffed by 1-2 employees, and an
additional as required seasonally or on weekends. Proposed taproom operations are as follows:
Tuesdays 5PM – 9PM, Wednesdays and Thursdays 5PM – 10PM, Fridays 3PM – 11PM, Saturdays
11AM – 11PM, and Sundays 11AM – 6PM.
No commercial kitchen is proposed for the space, however, a semi-permanent rotation of food trucks
are intended to park along the west façade of the new addition facing Port Washington Road.
Submitted taproom concept drawings detail both indoor and outdoor seating for patrons; the indoor
addition contains a bar, in addition to two-top and four-top tables. Outdoor seating is proposed
adjacent to the structure and within the painted pedestrian walkway, protected by removable
bollards. Submitted narrative documents detail the intention for live music.
Land Use
VB Agenda Packet 12-09-2025
Page 60 of 104
Fox Point’s Comprehensive Plan (or Land Use Plan) is the guiding document and long-term idealized vision
of the Village. State law requires an update to this plan every 10 years; Fox Point most recently updated
its Comprehensive Plan (PDF) in 2021. The Comp Plan requires public input and adoption by the Village
Board. The document identifies issues within the community, such as Economic Development, and
opportunities to address those issues.
Public input within the Comp Plan process indicated a desire for more socializing opportunities at local
shopping centers and retail along Port Washington Road. The Village’s commercial areas, specifically
along Port Washington Road, were identified as opportunities for retail, new experiences, and places to
gather. As a policy document, the Comprehensive Plan adopted a goal to support and facilitate economic
development in the Village’s commercial areas by encouraging the redevelopment of underutilized
parcels in the Village.
The Comprehensive Plan document also details the official land use map of the Village. While amending
the land use map is permitted under state law, the brewery/taproom request meets the long-term vision
laid out in the Comp Plan. Every parcel in Fox Point is classified in the land use map; the intersection of
Port Washington Road and Bradley Road is below (Ex. 1) which identifies the subject property, located at
8000 N Port Washington Road, as commercial.
(Ex. 1 Adopted Land Use Map)
Applicability of the PWO
The Assistant Village Manager, Chief of Police, and DPW Director have reviewed the application and
determined that the project narrative, associated site plans, and project details have been appropriately
submitted under 745-22.5(C)(a).
In order to be eligible for PWO rezoning, an applicant must abut Port Washington Road and currently be
zoned D Business District, which describes the subject property. The applicant’s proposed adaptive reuse
and building addition request PWO approval due to the overlay’s flexibility in site orientation and setbacks
which make the project feasible on the site.
Intent
The intent of the PWO is to enhance economic vitality, and permits greater flexibility in site
orientation and use than the base district may allow.
VB Agenda Packet 12-09-2025
Page 61 of 104
• Flexibility in land use regulations within the PWO is intended to accommodate a variety of
building types and sizes, fostering innovation, entrepreneurship, and economic growth.
• The PWO encourages the revitalization and redevelopment of underutilized or blighted
properties along the Port Washington Road corridor. Redevelopment efforts may reuse
existing structures where feasible.
Zoning Analysis
The proposed project is an adaptive reuse of the existing structure, which has existed since the 1960s, by
building an addition to the gas/service station on the site. While the proposed use of a Brewery/Taproom
could be approved through the Conditional Use approval process under the D Business District, the
applicant’s proposal for an addition to the principal structure requires flexibility in setbacks which are
allowed within the PWO at the discretion of the Village Board. Orienting the addition to the north of the
property utilizes area of the site more effectively, given the adjacent WE Energies substation, and allowing
more area for parking, outdoor seating, and landscape plantings.
• Use: The PWO allows Conditional Uses which are stated within the underlying zoning district, such
as the following; premises which sell alcoholic beverages, retail and service stores, restaurants,
and other similar uses.
• Build-to Line & Landmark Orientation: Under the PWO, no more than 50% of the front façade for
a new principal structure may be set back more than 10ft from Port Washington Road. A
landmark building located at a street intersection may not be set back more than 5ft from the
property line.
o The proposal utilizes the existing principal structure which is set back towards the rear of
the property and that overhead electrical lines, their associated easement, and WE
Energies guidance prevent such construction along Port Washington Road, the Plan
Commission may allow deviation from this requirement under 745-22.5(D)(1)(b) and the
Village Board further may allow deviation under 745-22.5(B)(2).
• Landmark Buildings: Structures located at an intersection require incorporation of unique features
which emphasize the importance of such a location.
o The inclusion of unique patterning and façade treatment, murals, and large panel
windows, by the applicant meet this requirement.
• Rear and Side setbacks: Compared to the base zoning district, the PWO allows a reduction to 5ft
rear and side yard setbacks when not abutting residential districts for new principal structures.
o The reduction in side and rear yard setbacks from 20ft within the base district makes this
project feasible for the proposed addition. The Village Board may allow deviation under
745-22.5(B)(2) from the base zoning district to allow the proposed setbacks.
o The property does not abut residential zoning districts. Orienting the principal structure
addition as proposed allows more parking, site circulation, and green space/plantings.
• Height: Structures must be constructed with a minimum of two stories within the PWO.
o The subject proposal is an existing principal structure and not new construction.
• Parking: Parking minimums default to the requirements of the D Business District but may be
reduced by the Plan Commission with sufficient justification. Per 745-18(7)(a), the applicant must
provide 5 stalls per 1000 sqft of gross building area, exclusive of storage area.
o The applicant is proposing 22 parking stalls on the site. However, three of the proposed
stalls lie within the proposed painted pedestrian walkway which would be protected by
VB Agenda Packet 12-09-2025
Page 62 of 104
removable bollards and unavailable at certain times of the year. When the pedestrian
walkway is in use, the property would allow 19 stalls.
o The proposed principal structure, when complete, is submitted at 3,859 sqft. The
applicant describes 1,880 sqft of that area as storage.
▪ If the entire structure (3,859 sqft) is included for calculation, the parking
minimum calculation is 19.29 parking stalls.
▪ If the 1,880 sqft storage area is removed, per code, the parking minimum
calculation becomes 9.89 parking stalls.
o In addition to the required parking stalls, adequate driveways or space required for
movement of automobiles within the parking area shall be provided.
o A lesser or greater number of parking stalls may be recommended by the Plan
Commission on taking into consideration the location of the parking area, the type and
use of building which the parking area is to serve, and other parking areas available in
close proximity to the area being considered. Such greater or lesser recommendation on
parking requirements will be effective only on approval by the Village Board.
• Refuse: Garbage and recycling collection will be serviced by a third party; not Village services.
Refuse containers will be screened behind the building and wheeled around to the front façade
for collection.
DPW Comments
The Director of Public Works has reviewed the application and has indicated the following:
• The applicant will be disturbing more than 4,000 square feet in the process of the redevelopment
and will have to address pre- and post-development flows, erosion control, and possibly fill, as
part of the permitting process. Further details on the location of sewer and water facilities will be
required.
• Application materials show that the rendered debris from the mash tun will be disposed of in the
dumpster. Are there odors associated with this disposal?
• Full topographical and drainage patterns will be required.
• Parking and Circulation:
o The stalls immediately adjacent to the removable bollards may not offer enough room for
a visitor to back out of the stall and leave the site without hitting one of the bollards.
o Width of the driving area between the stalls must be identified.
o The applicant should detail steps being taken to ensure that visitors shall not use off-site
parking (i.e. parking on Mohawk or Bradley), nor any parking in the adjacent lot
o Truck facilities must be adequately served. DPW recommends that all deliveries be
required to use Port Washington Road given the narrowness of Bradley Road.
• DPW requests that a third-party engineer reviews the application materials (if approved by the
Village Board) related to storm and sanitary runoff and discharges. Additional details on sanitary
discharges and whether any sort of pretreatment is needed for the wastewater being produced,
and whether any special discharge permits are needed for a taproom. DNR and MMSD permits
may be required for discharges.
• Calculations should be provided noting that the pipe sizes have been sized appropriately for the
discharges expected from the site. The application identifies discharges from the brewery process
but not from anticipated restroom or other use.
VB Agenda Packet 12-09-2025

• A general concept lighting plan is provided but the information identified in Chapter 670 must be
addressed if approved by the Village Board.
Consideration for Plan Commission
Staff recommends that the Plan Commission discuss the following with the applicant:
Operations
• Hours: Retail operations include an outdoor component. The Plan Commission may wish to
discuss the appropriateness of proposed hours of operation for outdoor seating and outdoor
dining.
o Adjacent structures to the north and east are vacant which indicates that noise will
likely not affect direct adjacency.
• Noise: Submitted narrative documents indicate live music. However, the location, direction, and
amplification of music is not discussed. The Plan Commission may wish to discuss music,
whether live or recorded, will be played outdoors, whether it will be amplified, and the location
on the site for such music.
o The applicant is additionally proposing vegetation plantings to screen and beautify the
development which should further lessen the impact of the proposed use. The nearest
residential property is roughly 170ft away (to the nearest property line).
• Deliveries: The Plan Commission may wish to discuss the applicant’s plans for deliveries of
materials and goods to/from the site, what type of trucks will be making deliveries, whether
delivery trucks can appropriately circulate, and determine appropriateness of including ingress
and egress from both Port Washington and Bradley Roads.
Parking
• Minimum Stalls: The Plan Commission may wish to discuss with the applicant whether enough
off-street parking on the site is available for employees, patrons, and a food truck.
o Submitted parking estimates supply a greater amount of parking (22 stalls) than the
municipal code requires (see calculations above within Zoning Analysis).
▪ The operational plan would utilize between 1-4 of proposed total parking stalls
for employee and food truck parking at any given time.
▪ 3 of the 22 stalls lie within the pedestrian walkway protected by removable
bollards, rendering them unusable during certain times of the year.
▪ Based on these operational proposals, of a 22 possible number of parking stalls,
7 stalls may be utilized, leaving a total of 15 stalls for patron parking.
• The Plan Commission may wish to discuss with the applicant whether the inclusion of bollards
for a dedicated pedestrian walkway allow for appropriate site circulation.
• The Plan Commission may wish to discuss with the applicant whether inclusion of bicycle
parking may be included to alleviate automobile parking during certain times of the year
o Inclusion of bicycle parking may encourage bicycle/pedestrian attendance; a goal of the
Comprehensive Plan.
Site and Area
• Build-to Line: The Plan Commission may wish to discuss whether the structural limitations
(overhead electrical wires and easement) on the site justify deviation from 745-22.5(D)(1)(b) to
allow the new addition to be located 34ft back from the street yard property line.
VB Agenda Packet 12-09-2025

Recommendations and Action
Should the Plan Commission address any issue that may be raised during discussion, Staff recommends
that the Plan Commission make the following findings, conditions, and recommendations, in addition to
any condition raised during discussion:
Findings (per Section 745-22.5(E)(2))
• That the proposed development will be adequately served by off-street parking and truck
service facilities.
• That the locations for entrances and exits have been designed to prevent unnecessary
interference with the safe and efficient movement of traffic on surrounding streets.
• That the architectural design, landscaping, control of lighting, and general site development will
result in an attractive and harmonious service area compatible with the surrounding
neighborhood.
Conditions
• Establishing hours of operation. If noise complaints or late-night disturbance complaints are
received, the applicant shall take corrective action to resolve those complaints to the
satisfaction of the Village Manager.
• Establishing hours of operation for outdoor dining/seating separate from indoor operations.
• Establishing hours, location, amplification, and direction of any music.
• Establishing whether a greater or lesser amount of parking is required on the site, and
justification for that determination.
• Establishing whether bicycle parking is appropriate on the site. Such plans will be submitted to
the Director of Public Works.
• Obtaining other required licenses, permits, and approvals. This includes but is not limited to site
plan approval, building permits, Engineering/DPW permits completed to the satisfaction of the
Director of Public Works, Milwaukee County or State of Wisconsin approvals, right-of-way
agreements, and recording the final PWO Development Agreement with the Village Board.
Recommendations to Village Board
• That the Village Board approve the PWO project subject to conditions.
• That the Village Board find the project meets the intent of Section 745-22.5 and the adopted
Comprehensive Plan.
• That the Village Board accept the Plan Commission’s determination that structural conditions
exist on the site which support deviation of the Built-to Line requirement under Section 745-
22.5(D)(1)(b).

Brewery and Taproom Proposal
8000 N Port Washington Road
Fox Point, WI 53217
E
xecutive Summary
Attached and enclosed is a comprehensive look at a proposed Brewery and Taproom
concept for the village of Fox Point, located at the corner on North Port Washington Road
and West Bradley Road.
Fox Point serves as a prime spot for this concept. According to the Brewer’s Association
Trade Group, Craft Beer has a core demographic of Millennials reaching middle age, living
in the suburbs and starting families. Local school enrollment data suggest that Fox Point
fits this profile and will continue to do so in the years to come. Additionally, hard data from
the summer beer garden series located in the village shows that residents have a real
interest in such products and services. Finally, Fox Point currently has limited to no options
to fulfill this consumer need, implying that a project/development that meets this need
could be successful.
The proposed brewery will occupy existing infrastructure on the parcel, a former
gas/service station of approximately 1,671 square feet. The proposed taproom will be new
construction that will be built adjacent and around the north and west corners of the
brewery, creating a retail space of approximately 2,188 square feet. From there, various
pervious/impervious outdoor spaces, parking and landscaping will be constructed to
compliment the facilities. Those details are the focus of this proposal.
Proposing this project is Fox Point resident and entrepreneur, John Degroote, who fits the
demographic described earlier in this summary and is passionate about bringing this
concept to the neighborhood. John has a decade of experience managing and operating a
brewery and has witnessed firsthand the community of residents eager for this type of
business through the beer gardens he currently operates in the village. The intent of this
project is to build something fun and unique for this community.
Operations Plan
The business will function in two main capacities. The first use of the premises will be to
produce beer, or fermented malt beverages. This function of the business is not consumer
facing and is planned to be conducted almost entirely when the adjacent consumer facing
retail space (taproom) is closed. 2 employees are planned to be on site during these hours,
including the site owner/operator. Roughly, hours will be 9 AM – 5 PM Monday thru Friday
VB Agenda Packet 12-09-2025
Page 68 of 104
for these employees to produce beer. During these hours, the site will also take delivery of
raw materials, collection of garbage and to receive shipping trucks for finished goods. Most
other office and/or administrative work will be conducted during these hours as well. Site
visits from professionals, contractors or solicitors seeking to do business with the
establishment may occur during these times.
The second main function of the business will be consumer facing and to provide a
taproom experience in the proposed retail spaces of this document. The taproom hours
and accompanying staffing are presented below. Employees are reasonably expected to
arrive 30-45 minutes ahead of opening and to stay 30-45 minutes after closing for
preparation, set-up, clean-up and closing duties.
In the summer months, one additional employee may be added on the weekends (Friday,
Saturday Sunday) to handle larger crowds and for the outdoor arrangements welcoming
customers. They may be cut from work early at the discretion of staffing.
Beer will be the main product served at this establishment, but the taproom will also be
offering a full-service bar with wine and cocktails. The space has plans to be available for
private rentals and special events as well.
No food services will be offered directly by the business. However, arrangements with food
trucks and/or local establishments are planned to have a semi-permanent presence at the
premises to ensure food is available for patrons.
In the summer months, outdoor crowds and attractions are expected. Live music, pop-up
vendors and food trucks will be frequent. All outdoor attractions are planned to end no
later than 11 PM.

Assumptions and Description of Materials
Per Section 745-22.5 PWO Port Washington Overlay District Subsection C of the village
code, enclosed are the following materials to be considered by the Village Plan Commission
and Board along with a summary and assumptions for each.
C001- Existing Pervious/Impervious: Current site condition showing present topography and
current pervious and impervious areas
C002- Proposed Pervious/Impervious: Proposed site condition showing changes to pervious
and impervious areas with proposed flow of storm drainage. All flow is to be directed
either to the south of the site or to the west, preventing pooling in any one area. One
exception is flow to the rear of the buildings on the northeast corner, which will be directed
north and east.
C003- Easements: Proposed site condition with updated setbacks from PWO overlay re-zone
and from the overhead power line existing on the lot and confirmed by WE energies. Not
shown are vertical elevations of power lines, which are currently about 20’. Screen shot
from WE energies is below to confirm setbacks
VB Agenda Packet 12-09-2025
Page 70 of 104
P001 - Site Plumbing: Reference the attached “Sanitary Plan Production Load” document
regarding the brewing production assumptions (influencing the pink line). Sanitary and
water service are also shown with pipe dimensions and description of connections to
mainlines.
E001- Site Photometric: Shows the proposed 8 light structures with Luminaire Schedule. The
5 single pole electric switch (S1) light configurations are mounted 12 feet above ground
which will straddle the patio pavers that traverse the site from the southwest to the
northeast. This provides lighting for customers on our patio in the evening hours. The 3
pole lights situated in the parking lot mounted 12 feet above ground are high output lights
for customers to navigate the parking lot in the evening hours. Grid of footcandles
superimposed in red show that outside property lines the proposed lighting doesn’t exceed
0.2 foot candles per village code Article IX sec 670-55.
G301- Site Utilization: Proposed site condition showing square footage of facilities & outdoor
arrangements - including grass/turf, parking lot and pervious outdoor patio/terrace areas.
None of the outdoor areas are planned to be screened in. Some natural shading provided
by the landscaping and/or with umbrellas will be implemented.
A100 - Landscape Plan: Our outdoor areas will include native and noninvasive species.
Aspen, Arborvitae and flower beds are called out in the drawing
A101 - Architectural Site Plan: Assumptions for parking are laid out. With 5 stalls required by
the village per 1000 square feet of indoor retail space exclusive of storage areas, our plan
has a stall requirement of 10 stalls. While the total building is 3,859 square feet, production
areas and storage account for 1,880 square feet of that, leaving 2,070 square feet leftover
for assembly. Our proposal will always have 19 stalls available, with the option to create 3
more stalls for a total of 22 in the winter when the patio isn’t in use. During operation, we
will need 2 of those stalls for Staff. Food trucks on site could also take 1-2 stalls at any given
time. The 12 removable bollards planned for our patio are also called out in this rendering.
These bollards slide into place on a concrete mount, are constructed with steel and can be
padlocked into place. They are ~3 feet in height and made with thick gauge steel with an
option to fill with concrete.
A102 – Asphalt/Paver art Examples: A101 shows the proposed area(s) and pavers available
for painting. Local artist(s) to be commissioned for the project. This may grow over time,
phasing in and changing. Areas/pavers not painted could be available for kids to draw chalk
on.
VB Agenda Packet 12-09-2025
Page 71 of 104
A103 - Additional Parking: Showcasing the addition of 3 extra spots if/when bollards are
removed at the discretion of the business.
A104 - Site circulation: Proposed site condition highlighting access considerations. Food
truck parking in the northwest corner of the site shows the suggested route food truck
should take to back up into the designating landing area. Trash collection is also
considered. Waste management, which services the Fox Point area, will have 2-yard
commercial dumpster(s) on site with casters. Staff will be able to wheel these dumpsters
from the service area on the northeast side of the lot, to the edge of the parking lot either
just to the south of the existing infrastructure or to the west of the proposed taproom by
the food truck landing. These routes are highlighted in the drawing. Finally, the
driveways/entrances to the parking lot on both N Port Washington Road and Bradley Road
are called out. Both are set at 24 feet across. Per the Milwaukee County Department of
Transportation (MCDOT) the access from Port Washington must not exceed 24 feet unless
by special written permission. The table below from MCDOT illustrates the driveway terms.
MCDOT had no other comments on the site when showed the proposed site layout, with
nothing pertaining to the easements or otherwise. As one last note, the removable bollards
and removable patio furniture make vehicle pass through of the site possible in special
circumstances, should the scenario or need arise.
A201 - Floor Plan: Shows both the inside floor plan for the taproom and the production
brewing area. The taproom shows the seating arrangements for the taproom, which has 11
bar seats and 54 table seats. The 2 bathrooms (one men’s, one women’s) have 2 stalls each.
The walk-in cooler can be accessed from both the bar and the production area for ease of
access for the staff. The vestibule entering the taproom will serve as a wind block for
climate control, with two doors separating inside from out. The vestibule and part of the
taproom will have line of sight to the production area via windowpanes for aesthetic value
but cannot be accessed by customers. All exits and access points to the taproom are
shown.
VB Agenda Packet 12-09-2025
Page 72 of 104
The production area, meanwhile, highlights where the main stainless-steel tanks will reside.
Adequate clearance of tanks that produce heat (located near the center of the production
floor, labeled BK, HLT and MT) from the walls was considered. 6 fermentation vessels
housing 10BBL each of beer will be under low pressure environments (less than 15psi) and
range between 33- and 85-degrees Fahrenheit. A 6-inch-wide floor drain that will service
those fermenters is shown as well. The boiler room on the eastern corner is projected to
house a 10 HP low pressure steam boiler generating less than 400K BTU/hr. The bathroom
on the southeast corner of the production area, can serve as a unisex bathroom for
consumers outside to avoid a surplus of people having to walk through the taproom in
warmer weather. The service area on the northeast corner of the taproom will serve as
storage for dumpsters and as a landing for a 5x5HP 230V 3 phase pump and glycol chiller
that will serve to keep fermentation vessels in the production area cold.
A300 – Elevations: Heights above ground from the perspective of the south and west of the
buildings are shown. Some information on the materials being used for the sides of the
building and roof are lightly touched upon.
A301, A302, A303 Perspectives: Multiple 3-D perspectives of the project for aesthetic and
functional consideration.
Summary of Financial Factors
The current value of the real estate at 8000 N Port Washington Road sits at about $250,000
based off the value it was purchased at in 2023. Negotiations for the sale price of the
property to the project organizers is ongoing. The existing infrastructure to be renovated
as a production brewery space is projected to receive $480,000 in improvements.
Additionally, a $920,000 investment in new construction for the taproom is proposed.
Landscaping and special features including the patio, parking lot and outdoor gathering
areas is currently valued at $620,000. This places the total anticipated development cost of
the project at $2,020,000.

RE: Tap Room Brew Pub SWM Memo
Dear Mr. Brandmeier,
This memo is being provided to confirm that the proposed Tap Room Brew Pub development
located at Port Washington Road and Bradley Road, Fox Point, Wisconsin is under one acre and
does not increase impervious area by 5,000 square and thus does meet the applicability standards
of the Village of Fox Point, WDNR , and MMSD stormwater codes.
The parcel is located in part of the W ½ of SE ¼ of Section 8, Township 8 North, Range 22 East,
Fox Point, Wisconsin. The parcel area of the site is approximately 0.54 acres (23,739 sq.ft.). The
existing project site is an existing one-story building development with parking lots and grass
areas. The proposed improvements include the construction of a new building addition including
new parking lots and drive aisles, landscape improvements, and utility installation.
Per Village of Fox Point Code of Ordinance Chapter 285-25 storm water quality applies to a
project disturbing more than 1 acre and water quantity applies to projects adding more than ½
acre of impervious surfaces. Since the parcel size is 0.54 acres and will be adding less than ½
acres of impervious surfaces, the project is exempt from the Village of Fox Point’s storm water
management requirements. See attached Table 1 Land Use Summary and SWMP figures for
more information.
Per NR 151.121(2), stormwater performance technical standards are applicable to sites with over
one acre of land disturbance. Since the site is less than an acre, it does not meet the applicability
standards of NR 151 post-construction stormwater technical standards. See attached Table 1
Land Use Summary and SWMP figures for more information.
Per Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District Chapter 13.301(2), runoff management is
required for any development or redevelopment that includes a net increase of 5,000 square feet
of impervious surface or includes two acres or more of land disturbing activity during
construction. As previously mentioned, since the site is 0.54 acres it does not meet the two acres
of land disturbing activity. The site has a net increase of 2,619 square feet, meaning it does not
meet the applicability standards of MMSD Chapter 13 requirements. See attached Table 1 Land
Use Summary and SWMP figures for more information.
Since the site fails to meet the applicability of the Village of Fox Point, WDNR, and MMSD
stormwater management codes/ordinances, no additional stormwater management BMPs are
required.

Brewery wastewater plan
Our production facility will be pushing one batch of beer through our process weekly. This
involves three main steps in the production process, each with expanded discussion below:
Cleaning (CIP), Brewing, Packaging
Cleaning (CIP):
Each batch of beer will require a full Clean in Process (CIP) of stainless-steel tanks associated
with each batch, between use. This includes the Mash kettle, Boil Kettle, and 2 Fermentation
vessels (FVs) for a total of 4 tanks per batch.
Each tank requires a cycle of caustic brewery cleaner (Sodium Hydroxide - NaOH) at no more
than 4% concentration in water.
The volume of solutions will be as follows for each cycle based on the tank
FV - 10 gallons
Boil Kettle - 20 gallons
Mash Tun - 20 gallons
After each caustic cycle, approximately 20 gallons of rinse water will be used. In total, this leads
to a use of 140 total gallons of water per week associated with caustic washes and rinsings.
From there, the FVs will require an additional cycle of passivate solution containing phosphoric
and nitric acids. The solutions will be at no more than 1% concentration in water. Each solution
will require 10 gallons of water and 10 gallons of rinse water for a total of 20 gallons of water per
tank or 40 gallons of total water per week.
Finally, the FVs will require a third cycle of sanitizer. Peroxyacetic acid with a concentration of
<0.2% of water will be used. Approximately 10 gallons per cycle per tank will be used with no
associated rinse. This will require, in total, another 20 gallons of water per week in production.
Total CIP wastewater will be 200 gallons per week
Brewing:
One brew day a week will require roughly an input of 540 gallons of water. Of that, 310 gallons
will become consumable beer, leaving 230 gallons of wastewater per week from production.
Half of this 230 gallons will be retained and absorbed by the malted barley used for production,
leaving only 115 gallons of rinse water that will go down the drain per week. This rinse water will
contain some debris from organic materials used in the brew process (Malted Barley/other
grain, hops and yeast). Those 3, and their impact on the wastewater is explored below.
VB Agenda Packet 12-09-2025
Page 98 of 104
Malted Barely/other grain - Approximately 98% of the barley/grain mass will be kept from going
down the drain. Our mash tun has filtration screens that will remove this debris associated with
this raw material. After the process is complete, the rendered debris will be disposed of in a
dumpster on site. Some residual barley on the screens may pass through from rinsing. Spent
barley from the process consists mostly of limited broken down starches/sugar, denatured
proteins and husk material
Hops - Virtually 100% of hop materials will end up in the wastewater. Hops in the brewing
industry are pelletized into a fine powder that breaks up when it gets wet. Approximately 20-30
pounds of hops per week will end up in the wastewater
Yeast - Virtually 100% of yeast materials will end up in the wastewater. Yeast is a living
organism (Saccharomyces Cervisae) that breaks down sugar to make alcohol. Much of the
yeast going down the drain will be dead, but vitality of 10-20% is common. On average, about
1500-3000 grams of yeast will be sent down with the wastewater per week.
Packaging:
Some light rinsing on the outside of our kegs and cans used for packaging is common. Per
batch we expect no more than ~10 gallons of wastewater per week.
In addition to keg filling is keg washing between use. Each keg wash from our Keg Washer will
take 1 gallon of water total among various caustic and sanitation cycles that will go down the
drain. Each batch of beer will require 20 half barrel kegs to be cleaned, for a total of 20 gallons
of wastewater per batch. We estimate one batch packaged per week.
Total:
Total wastewater per week is approximated at 345 gallons. The table below summarizes the
descriptions above.
Process Tank Volume H2O per
Turn (gallons) Weekly Monthly
CIP Fermentation 50 100 433

STATE OF WISCONSIN VILLAGE OF FOX POINT MILWAUKEE COUNTY
ORDINANCE ______
An Ordinance to amend the Zoning Map of the Village of Fox Point to Add
a Port Washington Overlay (PWO) District Designation on Property
Located at 8000 N. Port Washington Road, Village of Fox Point, Milwaukee County Wisconsin
WHEREAS, a petition has been filed by John Degroot e, (“Petitioner”) on behalf of the owner of
certain lands in the Village of Fox Point, to rezone certain property located generally 8000 N. Port
Washington Road, as further described in Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein (“Subject
Property”); and
WHEREAS, said rezoning petition was submitted to rezone the Subject Property by adding to the
underlying D-Business District designation, a Port Washington Overlay (PWO) district designation; and
WHEREAS, the Petitioner has supplied all required data pursuant to Section 74-22.5C.(1) of the
Village of Fox Point Zoning Code, and the Village Board referred the matter to the Village of Fox Point
Plan Commission pursuant to Section 74-22.5C.(2) of the Village of Fox Point Zoning Code; and
WHEREAS, a public hearing was conducted by the Village Board of the Village of Fox Point on
December 9, 2025 as required by Section 74-22.5C.(3) of the Village of Fox Point Zoning Code, upon due
notice as required by Section 74-22.5C.(3) of the Village of Fox Point Zoning Code; and
WHEREAS, the Village Board finds that this change to the Village of Fox Point Zoning Code is
not a down zoning ordinance because it does not decrease the development density of land and it does not
reduce the permitted uses of land, and it was requested by the property owner, and therefore the super
majority requirement of Section 66.10015, Wisconsin Statutes, does not apply to this ordinance; and
WHEREAS, the Village Board finds the following, as required by Section 745-22.5E.(2):
a) That the proposed development will be adequately served by off -street
parking and truck service facilities.
b) That the locations for entrances and exits have been designed to prevent
unnecessary interference with the safe and efficient movement of traffic on
surrounding streets.
c) That the architectural design, landscaping, control of lighting, and general
site development will result in an attractive and harmonious service area
compatible with the surrounding neighborhood.
WHEREAS, the Village Board of the Village of Fox Point having determined that all procedural
requirements and notice requirements have been satisfied, having given the matter due consideration, and
having based its determination on the effect of the granting of such rezoning on the health, safety and
welfare of the community, and the immediate neighborhood in which said use will be located, and having
given due consideration to the municipal problems involved as well as the impact on the surrounding
properties as to noise, dust, smoke and odor, and others, hereby determine that the rezoning will not violate
the spirit or intent of the Zoning Code for the Village of Fox Point will not be contrary to the public health,
safety or general welfare of the Village of Fox Point, will not be hazardous, harmful, noxious, offensive
and will not for any other reason cause a substantial adverse effect on the property values and general
desirability of the neighborhood as long as the operation is conducted pursuant to the following conditions
