The development is located just east of the Oaks of Jackson subdivision and will consist of four, two-family homes on a singular lot. The homes will be accessed by a private road extending south of Spruce Street. The development has a proposed density of 4.7 dwelling units per net acre. Each of the units will feature two bedrooms. The left side units will also contain two on-suite bathrooms and a separate half bath. Right side units will feature two bedrooms with a Jack and Jill style bathroom along with a separate half bath. Laundry areas and attached, two car garages are also planned for each unit. The roughly 230-foot-long private roadway will be 24 feet wide with 24” curb and gutter and 5-foot-wide sidewalks connecting to Spruce Street provided on each side. Afire hydrant is planned for the south end of the private road. Proposed landscaping includes a mix of spruce and maple trees flanking the north entrance of the property with additional plantings located along the east property line. Individual unit landscaping includes a variety of foundational plantings consistent with typical residential landscaping. Comprehensive Plan & Zoning Impacts: A previous amendment to the Village’s 2050 Comprehensive Plan Map in May of this year reclassified the land from General Commercial to Medium-Density Residential. The proposed development and zoning designation are similar to nearby developments consisting primarily of one and two-family homes. The requested rezoning to R-6 Mixed Residential District is the final step in the development approval process. The development standards for the R-6 Mixed Residential District are outlined below for your reference. Sec. 48-142. R-6 Mixed Residential District. (a) Generally. The R-6 Mixed Residential District is intended to provide for one and two-family residential development at densities not to exceed 7.2 dwelling units per net acre, served by municipal sewer and water facilities. (b) Permitted uses. Two-family dwellings, a complex of two or more two-family dwellings on a lot, twin-home dwellings, and single-family dwellings. Village of Jackson Plan Commission Page 4 of 81 Page 2 __________________________________ (c) Permitted accessory uses. Permitted accessory uses include private garages, private carports, sheds (garden, tool, and storage) incidental to the residential use, and home occupations and professional home offices as specified in section 48-1. (d) Conditional uses. Conditional uses include group homes, foster homes, and halfway houses provided that there shall be a minimum lot area of 1,500 square feet per person (upon ultimate development) and a minimum principal building area of 200 square feet per person. (e) Lot area and width. Except for twin-home lots, all lots shall be a minimum of 6,000 square feet in area for each dwelling unit and shall not be less than 85 feet in width at the setback line. Twin-home lots shall be a minimum of 4,500 square feet in area for each dwelling unit and shall not be less than 40 feet in width at the setback line. (f) Building height and area. No principal building or parts of a principal building shall exceed 35 feet in height. No accessory building shall exceed 15 feet in height. The total minimum floor area of a one- bedroom dwelling shall be 700 square feet; the total minimum floor area of a two-bedroom dwelling shall be 1,000 square feet. (g) Setbacks and yards.

Village Official Date Page 45 of 81 Ordinance #26-08 Page 3 of 3 Exhibit A: Parcel V3_00500D Page 46 of 81 Municipal Planning Services for Growing Communities Date: July 6, 2026 To: Village of Jackson Plan Commission Collin Johnson, Director of Inspections & Zoning Jen Heidtke, Village Administrator From: Tim Schwecke, Civi Tek Consulting Craig Huebner, GRAEF Subject: Zoning Code Update Project – Plan Commission meeting on July 16, 2026 Our consultant team has completed the following draft articles of the proposed zoning code for the Plan Commission's review and discussion: • Article 14 – Land Uses • Article 15 – Performance Standards • Article 17 – Engineering and Environmental Standards • Article 19 – Site Improvements and Design Standards • Article 21 – Parking, Loading, and Access • Article 22 – Outdoor Lighting • Article 24 – Nonconformities • Article 25 – Enforcement These articles represent the next phase of the comprehensive zoning code update and incorporate the organizational framework and drafting conventions established in the previously reviewed articles. Couple things to highlight: • Performance standards in Article 15 apply to all land uses. • Requirements for Traffic Impact Analysis in Article 17 are new. • While the current code has some outdoor lighting standards, Article 22 has typical standards for a local zoning code. It addresses fixture requirements, maximum lighting levels, the height for parking lot poles, lighting curfews during overnight hours, prohibited lighting, and more. The draft articles have been reviewed by Village staff and revised as appropriate. During the Plan Commission's review, the Commission should identify any policy issues or provisions requiring additional discussion and provide preliminary feedback on the draft articles. The consultant team will document the Commission's comments and incorporate appropriate revisions before the articles are integrated into the complete draft zoning code. At this point, there are only three articles to be drafted: Article 18 - Architectural Standards, Article 20 - Landscaping and Buffers, and Article 23 - Signs. We hope to share one or more of these at the August PC meeting. Enc. Articles 14, 15, 17, 19, 21, 22, 24, and 25, all dated 07-06-2026 Page 47 of 81 Village of Jackson Chapter 50 – Zoning - Discussion Draft (07-06-2026) - 14-1 ARTICLE 14 LAND USES 50-2100 Purpose This article promotes the public health, safety, and welfare and is intended to promote a sound development pattern by regulating the use of land in the Village. 50-2101 State and federal preemption While the Village has broad authority to create and enforce its own zoning regulations, that authority is sometimes limited by state and federal laws, and related court rulings, which take precedence over local regulations. In some cases, these higher levels of government impose specific rules that municipalities must follow, or they restrict local authority altogether—a concept known as preemption. Certain land uses are subject to this kind of preemptive control. For example, adult entertainment businesses are protected by the First Amendment, which limits how and where municipalities can regulate them. Group homes and other community living arrangements are often shielded by federal fair housing laws and state statutes that prohibit discriminatory zoning practices against people with disabilities. The placement and regulation of telecommunication facilities, such as cell towers, are governed by the federal Telecommunications Act of 1996, which prevents local governments from unreasonably restricting their development. Likewise, state laws prevent municipalities from creating overly burdensome regulations on solar and wind energy systems. In all such cases, the Village must carefully navigate the balance between achieving local planning objectives and complying with overriding state and federal legal standards. 50-2102 Land uses a. Permitted land uses. Land uses permitted in a base zoning district are set forth in Appendix A1. Land uses permitted in a project-based zoning district are set forth in Appendix A2. Development standards applicable to all listed land uses are set forth in Appendix B, including use-specific standards such as requirements for off-street parking, bicycle parking, loading berths, and supplemental standards. b. Land uses not listed. If a person wants to establish a land use that is not specifically listed in Appendix A1 or A2, as applicable, they may submit an application to the Zoning Administrator if they believe the proposed use is substantially similar to a listed use. The application will be evaluated consistent with requirements in Division 18, Article 5. If the Zoning Administrator determines that the proposed use is indeed closely similar to a listed use, it will be regulated in the same manner, including compliance with all applicable supplemental standards. Any land use that is not specifically listed and cannot reasonably be interpreted as substantially similar to a listed use is considered prohibited. However, if someone wants to establish such a use, they may submit a petition to amend the zoning code, following the procedures and requirements outlined in Article 5. 50-2103 Mixed uses in a building A building may include more than one permitted land use, even if the uses are not part of a defined mixed-use category, if each use is allowed in the base zoning district for the property. For example, a multi-tenant building could include a restaurant, a retail shop, and a health clinic if these uses are permitted in the base zoning district. Each use will be regulated by all applicable supplemental standards, respectively. In the case that a building includes both a residential and a non-residential use, the supplemental standards for mixed-use residential will also apply. 50-2104 Special provisions for specified foster homes and treatment foster homes Foster homes that are owned, operated, or contracted for by the state of Wisconsin or a county department are not subject to any public review process.[1] All other foster homes and treatment foster homes must comply with this chapter. Page 48 of 81 Village of Jackson Chapter 50 – Zoning - Discussion Draft (07-06-2026) - 14-2 Editorial notes: [1] See 63 Atty. Gen. 34 50-2105 Special provisions for community living arrangements a. Limitations. Under state law, a Village may not limit the number of community living arrangement facilities, so long as the total capacity of such facilities does not exceed 25 or one percent of the Village’s population, whichever is greater. When that threshold is exceeded, the Village Board may prohibit additional community living arrangements from being located in the Village. Additionally, when the capacity of community living arrangements in a ward reaches 25 or one percent of the population, whichever is greater, the Village Board may prohibit additional community living arrangements from being located in the ward. A foster home or a foster treatment home that is the primary domicile of a foster parent or foster treatment parent and that is licensed under § 48.62, Wis. Stats., and an adult family home certified under § 50.032 (lm)(b), Wis. Stats., are exempt from this provision.[1] b. Periodic review of existing facilities. Not less than 11 months but not more than 13 months after the first licensure of an adult family home under § 50.033, Wis. Stats., or of a community living arrangement and every year thereafter, the Village Board may make a determination as to the effect of such facility on the health, safety, or welfare of residents of the municipality. If the Village Board determines such facility poses a threat to the health, safety, or welfare of the residents of the municipality, the Village Board may order such facility to cease operation or obtain a conditional use permit to continue operation. Such facility must cease operation within 90 days after date of the order, or the date of final judicial review of the order, or the date of the denial of a conditional use permit, whichever is later. The fact that an individual with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome or a positive HIV test, as defined in § 252.01 (2M), Wis. Stats., resides in a community living arrangement with a capacity of 8 or fewer persons may not be used under this subsection to assert or prove that the existence of the community living arrangement in the community poses a threat to the health, safety, or welfare of the residents of the Village.[1] Editorial notes: [1] See § 62.23 (7)(i), Wis. Stats. 50-2106 Accessory land uses a. Generally. An accessory building may not be constructed until the principal building is completed or is under construction. b. Removal of a principal building while retaining an accessory building. Pursuant to the procedures and requirements in Article 5, the Plan Commission may approve a special exception to allow the removal of a principal building, while retaining the accessory building, when the Commission determines that the principal building is dilapidated, and the accessory building meets current building codes and serves a useful purpose. If the Commission approves the special exception, the property owner must record a deed restriction, as approved by the Commission, in the Washington County register of deeds office that controls the use of the accessory building and incorporates any requirement imposed by the Commission as a condition of approval, such as time limitations (e.g., construction of a principal building) or limitations on the use of the building. 50-2107 Temporary uses By definition, a temporary use is not permanent. This means that once a temporary use has been removed, it does not retain any vested right to be reestablished in the future. Additionally, the Village has the authority to remove a temporary use from the zoning code, change the locations where it is allowed, and create new supplemental standards or modify existing ones that were previously in effect. 50-2108 Effect of overlay districts on land uses Even if a land use is permitted in a base zoning district, an overlay district may impose additional restrictions that further limit which land uses are allowed on a property. Page 49 of 81 Village of Jackson Chapter 50 – Zoning - Discussion Draft (07-06-2026) - 14-3 50-2109 Map of conditional uses The Zoning Administrator may prepare a map showing those properties that have an active conditional use permit and amend the same from time to time. 50-2110 Nonconforming uses A land use that was legally established but does not comply with the current requirements is considered a nonconforming use and is therefore subject to the terms and conditions in Article 24 as applicable. 50-2111 through 50-2199 reserved Page 50 of 81 Village of Jackson Chapter 50 – Zoning - Discussion Draft (07-06-2026) - 15-1 ARTICLE 15 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 50-2200 Generally The performance standards in this article are established to promote the health, safety, and general welfare of the public by creating an objective and equitable basis to control potentially hazardous and nuisance-like effects of various land uses and to ensure that the community is adequately protected. These performance standards may have the effect of limiting, restricting, and prohibiting the ways in which otherwise permissible land uses may operate. In addition to these established standards, there may be other applicable local, state, and federal codes and standards that also apply. 50-2201 Odors a. Applicability. The odor control standards established in this section apply to all land uses and activities, except where the odor is created by (1) food cooking; (2) the construction of a principal use on the subject property; (3) the application of fertilizers; or (4) incidental traffic, parking, loading, or maintenance operations. Public utilities and services that are otherwise allowed under this code are essential public services and are therefore also exempt. b. Standards. Odors detectable by a healthy observer, such as the Zoning Administrator, who is not affected by background odors (e.g., tobacco or food), shall not be perceptible at the property boundary for more than 15 minutes in any 24-hour period. 50-2202 Air pollution a. Applicability. The air pollution standards established in this section apply to all land uses and activities, except where the air pollution is created during the construction of a principal use on the subject property, or by incidental traffic, parking, loading, or maintenance operations. b. General standards. All land uses and activities that are subject state or federal air quality standards must operate consistent with such permits or approvals. c. Other standards. Dust and other types of air pollution borne by the wind from such sources as storage areas, yards, and roads within the boundaries of any lot must be controlled by appropriate landscaping, paving, oiling, or other acceptable means as determined by the reviewing authority. 50-2203 Fire and explosive hazards a. Applicability. The standards for fire and explosive hazards established in this section apply to all land uses and activities, except for the storage or use of liquefied petroleum or natural gas for normal residential or business purposes. b. Standards. All operations involving the storage, use, processing, or handling of flammable, combustible, or explosive materials must comply with applicable federal, state, and local regulations, including the adopted fire code, and shall be designed and operated to minimize the potential for ignition, rapid fire spread, or explosion. The Zoning Administrator, in consultation with the fire department, may require documentation demonstrating compliance with this standard and may impose reasonable conditions, including limitations on quantities, operational practices, or site design, to ensure that potential hazards are adequately mitigated. 50-2204 Glare and heat a. Applicability. The standards for glare and heat established in this section apply to all land uses and activities, except where glare is created during the construction of a principal use on the subject property, or by incidental traffic, parking, loading, or maintenance operations. b. Standards. (1) No direct or sky-reflected glare shall be visible at the lot line of the subject property or from any on-site activity or process, such as combustion or welding. (2) There shall be no discernible transmission of heat or heated air at the lot line as determined by the Zoning Administrator. Page 51 of 81 Village of Jackson Chapter 50 – Zoning - Discussion Draft (07-06-2026) - 15-2 50-2205 Wastewater discharges a. Applicability. The standards for wastewater discharges apply to all land uses and activities as applicable. b. Standards. Uses and activities may not discharge pollutants, solids, grease, toxic substances, or other materials in concentrations or quantities that interfere with the operation of the Village’s public sanitary sewer system or violate applicable effluent limitations or water quality standards. Where required, appropriate pretreatment facilities, grease interceptors, oil-water separators, or other control measures must be installed and properly maintained. The Zoning Administrator, in consultation with the Public Works Director, may require documentation demonstrating compliance with this standard and, in consultation with the appropriate utility or regulatory agency, may impose reasonable conditions on design, operation, or monitoring to ensure compliance with this section. 50-2206 Vibration a. Applicability. The requirements of this section apply to all uses and activities, except those vibrations created during the construction of the principal use on the subject property. b. Requirements. No physical vibration emanating on a property that is above the vibration perception threshold of an individual shall pass beyond the property line of such property, as determined by the Zoning Administrator. Vibration perception threshold means the minimum ground- or structure-borne vibrational motion necessary to cause a reasonable person to be aware of the vibration by such direct means as, but not limited to, sensation by touch or visual observation of moving objects. 50-2207 Noise a. Applicability. The requirements of this section apply to all land uses and activities that create detectable noise, except (1) noise that is created during the construction of the principal use on the subject property; (2) noise from incidental traffic, parking, loading/unloading, and maintenance; (3) noise from equipment commissioning and intermittent equipment testing; and (4) noise from typical agricultural operations, if otherwise allowed. Railroads and public utilities and services that are otherwise allowed under this code are essential public services and are therefore exempt. b. Requirements. Noise attributable to a land use may not exceed the levels listed below when measured at the property boundary line. Table 15-1. Maximum noise levels Zoning district with subject property Abutting parcel is in residential district Abutting parcel is in Business district Abutting parcel is in Industrial district Abutting parcel is in Public Service and Civic district Business 58 dBA 60 dBA 62 dBA 62 dBA Industrial 58 dBA 60 dBA 65 dBA 65 dBA Public Service and Civic 58 dBA 60 dBA 65 dBA 65 dBA Note: The specific zoning districts in each of the general categories are listed in § 50-1101 in Article 7. 50-2208 through 50-2299 reserved Page 52 of 81 Village of Jackson Chapter 50 – Zoning - Discussion Draft (07-06-2026) - 17-1 ARTICLE 17 ENGINEERING AND ENVIRONMENTAL 50-2400 Site restrictions a. Generally. If the Zoning Administrator determines that a parcel of land, whether vacant, partially developed, or fully developed, contains one or more development constraints that would preclude the normal use of the parcel for a use that is otherwise permitted in the zoning district in which it is located, they may render a written determination that states the best available facts related to the development constraint and other reasoning as may be appropriate. Examples of development constraints include unfavorable topography, rock formations, shallow depth to bedrock, unstable or otherwise unsuitable soils, stormwater runoff, inadequate drainage, high groundwater, or any other constraint that is harmful to the public health, safety, and welfare. b. Effect. Once such a determination has been made, the Zoning Administrator, building inspector, or other governmental official or body may not issue a development order or other approval authorizing the development in the area subject to the development constraint. c. Reconsideration. The Zoning Administrator may reconsider their determination at any time and render a new determination if new or additional facts become known or if the facts upon which the determination was made are not accurate. d. Appeals. The property owner has the right to appeal such administrative decision consistent with the procedures and requirements in Article 5. 50-2401 Establishment of building grades Every building hereafter erected, structurally altered, or relocated must be at a grade approved by the Zoning Administrator or Building Inspector. 50-2402 Groundwater separation No principal building shall be erected, structurally altered, or relocated on land which is not adequately drained at all times nor which is subject to periodic flooding, nor so that the lowest floor level is at least one foot above the highest anticipated seasonal groundwater level. 50-2403 Floodplain requirements Development authorized by this chapter must comply with the floodplain regulations in Chapter 16 of the municipal code. 50-2404 Stormwater management Development authorized by this chapter must comply with the stormwater management requirements in Chapter 35 of the municipal code. 50-2405 Construction site erosion control All land-disturbing activities authorized by this chapter must comply with the erosion control requirements in Chapter 35 of the municipal code. 50-2406 Sanitation and water supply No principal building involving human use or occupancy shall be permitted on a lot unless provision is made and ensured for safe and adequate facilities for water supply and disposal of sewage by means of connection to the public water service and public sewer system as set forth in Chapter 44 of the municipal code. Page 53 of 81 Village of Jackson Chapter 50 – Zoning - Discussion Draft (07-06-2026) - 17-2 50-2407 Traffic impact analysis a. Purpose. A traffic impact analysis evaluates the adequacy of the existing transportation system to serve the proposed development and determine the expected effects of the proposed development on the transportation system. The traffic impact analysis must provide adequate information for Village staff to evaluate the development proposal and to provide recommended conditions of approval in the event approval is recommended. b. When required. A full traffic impact analysis must be submitted if the proposed development is expected to generate more than 500 peak-hour vehicle trips at full build-out. An abbreviated traffic impact analysis must be submitted if the proposed development is expected to generate between 100 and 500 peak-hour vehicle trips at full build-out. c. Preparation. The traffic impact analysis must be prepared by a professional engineer with expertise in transportation planning. d. Form and content. A full or abbreviated traffic impact analysis must be prepared consistent with the most current revision of the Traffic Impact Analysis Guidelines published by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation. 50-2408 Traffic visibility a. Intent. Vision corner triangles are established at the intersection of existing and proposed streets, alleys, and railroads to help ensure that motorists are able to see pedestrians and cross traffic. b. Dimensions for vision corner. The clear vision triangle is formed by two lines along the right-of- way for the distances listed in Exhibit 17-1 and a chord connecting the end of those two lines. c. Restriction. Buildings, vehicle parking, fences, signage, berms, retaining walls, dense vegetation, and any other obstructions are not allowed within a vision corner triangle between the heights of 30 inches and 10 feet above the mean curb grades. A flagpole, a utility pole, and a single-stem tree (without any branches up to 10 feet), and other similar features, as determined by the Zoning Administrator, are not an obstruction for the purposes of this section. d. Exemptions. All buildings existing within the vision triangle at the time of adoption of the ordinance codified in this section are exempt from the requirements of this section. 50-2409 Preservation of topography In order to protect the property owner from possible damage due to change in the existing grade of adjoining lands, and to aid in preserving and protecting the natural beauty and character of the landscape, no change in the existing topography of any land shall be made which would result in increasing any portion of the slope to a ratio greater than two horizontal to one vertical, within 20 feet from the property line, except where retaining walls are built as allowed in this chapter or with the written consent of the abutting property owner and with the approval of the Village Engineer, or which would alter the existing drainage or topography in any way as to adversely affect the adjoining property. In no case shall any slope exceed the angle of repose of the material involved, and all slopes shall be protected against erosion. Exhibit 17-1.

(2) The standards in this article, along with those in related articles, are intended to offer clear and practical guidance to property owners, design professionals, and public officials. (3) The standards in this article are intended to promote the public health, safety, and welfare and are reasonably related to the public purpose of achieving an attractive, functional, and prosperous community. 50-2602 Minimum design standards Development subject to review under this article must adhere to the following design principles along with other requirements that may apply: (1) The location and orientation of all buildings must meet the individual lot size, width, setback and yard requirements set forth in the applicable zoning district regulations. (2) Buildings and other improvements must be arranged on a site and in a configuration that does not impede traffic accessibility and circulation to/from adjacent streets and adjoining sites developed with similar nonresidential uses. (3) Buildings must be arranged to reduce visibility of service areas from public streets, customer parking areas, and adjacent properties. (4) Service yards and facilities, including storage areas (if permitted) and docking and loading facilities, must be easily accessible by service vehicles, separated from the primary parking access and circulation functions, centrally located to serve multiple establishments and tenants (if any), designed to prevent backing up onto the public right-of-way, and integrated into the overall design of the buildings and landscaping features so the visual and acoustic impacts of these functions are located out of view from public streets and adjacent agricultural and residential-zoned areas through the use of thoughtful site layouts, architectural extensions of buildings, walls, fences, landscaping features and plantings, or a combination thereof. (5) Buildings and other improvements should be located to take advantage of a site's natural topography and drainage, existing vegetation and other natural features. Modifications to such features may be permitted when required for safety purposes, or, where modification contributes to and further visual appearance, function, and utility of the site.

An example of an encroachment in a public sidewalk Page 60 of 81 Village of Jackson Chapter 50 – Zoning - Discussion Draft (07-06-2026) - 21-1 ARTICLE 21 PARKING, LOADING AND ACCESS 50-2800 Legislative findings The Village Board makes the following legislative findings: (1) The design of parking areas and site access is critically important to the economic viability of commercial areas, pedestrian and driver safety, the efficient and safe operation of adjoining streets, and community image and livability. (2) Standards are needed to establish the minimum and maximum number of parking spaces that are needed to serve various land uses. (3) Excessively large parking lots increase the cost of development, create an unhealthy built environment, contribute to the heat island effect associated with urban areas, and decrease the infiltration of storm water into the ground. (4) Shared parking can reduce parking facility costs (including aesthetic and environmental impacts), allow greater flexibility in facility location and site design, and encourage more efficient land use. (5) Parking lots and their access represent a vital connection between the local transportation network and land uses. (6) Incorrectly designed parking lots and site access can have negative impacts on the site, the adjacent and nearby public roadways, and the image of the business community. 50-2801 Purpose This article promotes the public health, safety, and general welfare and is intended to: (1) Increase the safety and capacity of public streets by requiring off-street parking and off-street loading facilities. (2) Minimize adverse effects of off-street parking and off-street loading facilities on adjacent properties and surrounding neighborhoods. (3) Lessen congestion and prevent the overtaxing of public roads by regulating the location and capacity of off-street parking and off-street loading facilities. (4) Maintain and enhance a safe and efficient transportation system. (5) Minimize the occurrences of motor vehicles backing into public roads. (6) Minimize impervious surfaces. 50-2802 General design principles Parking areas, loading berths, driveways, and access must be designed based on the following principles: (1) Provide continuous flow of traffic through the parking area. (2) Allow safe movement of pedestrians from parking areas to buildings. (3) Avoid conflicts between vehicular, bicycle, and pedestrian traffic. Pedestrian circulation takes precedence over vehicular circulation. (4) Ensure that site facilities and amenities are accessible to people with disabilities as required by this article and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). (5) Allow for appropriate landscaping of parking areas without conflicting with outdoor lighting. (6) Ensure that emergency service vehicles are able to travel through parking areas, including fire trucks. (7) Minimize impervious surfaces. (8) Allow for the logical expansion of parking areas to accommodate different land uses or an expansion of an existing use. Page 61 of 81 Village of Jackson Chapter 50 – Zoning - Discussion Draft (07-06-2026) - 21-2 (9) Allow for efficient clearing and storage of snow. (10) Ensure that the stormwater generated on the site is accommodated consistent with Village requirements. (11) Queuing of vehicles must be designed to prevent stacking of vehicles onto a public right-of-way. (12) Ingress and egress of parking spaces must occur on private property and not cross into the public right of way (sidewalks or streets) to gain access to parking spaces. 50-2803 General applicability The requirements and standards for off-street parking apply to new site development, an expansion or modification of an existing parking area, and a change in use, subject to the standards below. (1) When an existing building, structure, or use of land changes to a new use, additional on-site parking spaces must be constructed if the new use requires a minimum amount of on-site parking spaces more than already exists on the subject property. (2) When a building or structure is expanded, additional parking spaces must be constructed if the expansion requires a minimum amount of on-site parking spaces more than already exists on the subject property. (3) When a building or structure was erected prior to _______, 2026, additional minimum parking spaces or loading facilities are mandatory only in the amount by which the requirements of the new use or occupancy exceed those for the existing or prior use or occupancy. (4) When site constraints and/or other standards of this chapter do not allow proper space to provide for the minimum amount of required on-site parking spaces for a change in use of a building, structure, or land as stated above, the Plan Commission may, in its discretion, grant a special exception to the requirement of constructing additional parking spaces. The applicant requesting a change in use must demonstrate how site constraints and/or other standards of this chapter do not allow construction of additional on-site parking spaces, and must provide justification that there are sufficient off-site parking spaces available for overflow parking, such as street parking or shared parking on neighboring or nearby properties. 50-2804 General standards for off-street parking areas a. Proximity of parking to principal use. Parking spaces must be located on the same lot with the principal use, except when shared parking is allowed. b. Use of parking spaces. Off-street parking areas for non- residential uses must be for occupants, employees, visitors, and patrons. The storage of merchandise, supplies, motor vehicles for sale, or the repair of vehicles in a parking area is prohibited, unless otherwise allowed in this chapter. In addition, overnight camping (e.g., RVs) in a parking area is prohibited. c. Surfacing. An off-street parking area (i.e., spaces and aisles) must be hard surfaced with concrete, asphalt, pavers, or other durable, all-weather pavement material approved by the Zoning Administrator. d. Curb. An off-street parking area with 20 or more parking spaces must be constructed with a concrete curb surrounding the vehicle use areas (both driveways and parking areas). If an existing parking lot is expanded and does not have a curb, the Zoning Administrator may waive this requirement in whole or in part. Gaps in the curbing may occur to facilitate property parking lot drainage. e. Marking of parking spaces. Parking spaces must be clearly marked if there are more than 5 parking spaces. Exhibit 21-1. Green infrastructure next to a parking lot Page 62 of 81 Village of Jackson Chapter 50 – Zoning - Discussion Draft (07-06-2026) - 21-3 f. Drainage. An off-street parking area must be properly graded for drainage consistent with standards adopted by the Village, and as approved by the Village Engineer. g. Snow storage. Required parking spaces and access aisles may not be used for snow storage. Areas used for snow storage must be clearly depicted on the approved site plan if snow will be stored on site. h. Features within clear vision triangle. All features and improvements within a clear vision triangle must be consistent with the standards in § 50-___. i. Landscaping. Landscaping for an off-street parking area must be provided consistent with the requirements in Article 20. j. Screening. An off-street parking area adjacent to a residential area with 4 or more parking spaces must provide screening as described in Article 21. k. Outdoor lighting. Outdoor lighting within a parking area must be provided consistent with the requirements in Article 22. l. Signage. Signage related to off-street parking and on-site traffic circulation must comply with the requirements in Article 23. 50-2805 Placement on a lot a. Generally. Parking areas may be located in any yard provided applicable pavement setback requirements are met. b. Restriction in some zoning districts. The number of parking spaces located in the front yard may be restricted in some zoning districts as more specifically set forth in Appendix C. 50-2806 Timing a. Typical installation. Parking spaces and aisles, and curb and gutter, if required, must be installed before the granting of occupancy for the use or uses for which the vehicle use areas are provided. If weather conditions during the late fall to early spring seasons do not allow installation of the permanent surface and curb and gutter, the Building Inspector may grant temporary occupancy, provided a solid surface of gravel is provided and the property owner and Village enter into a written agreement, with a financial guarantee, that requires completion no later than June 1 or as specified in the agreement. b. Deferred installation. If the developer believes the number of required parking spaces is more than what is actually needed, the developer has the ability to defer construction of no more than 10 percent of the required spaces, provided the site plan shows the area reserved for such parking spaces and the Plan Commission agrees to the deferment. 50-2807 Number of parking spaces a. Minimum number of spaces. Off-street parking spaces must be provided in the number specified in Appendix B, except as follows: (1) When bicycle parking is provided consistent with this article, bicycle parking spaces may be used to satisfy the number of required parking spaces up to a maximum of 4 percent provided the number of required parking spaces is 25 or more. For example, if the parking standards as applied to a project call for 100 vehicle parking spaces, no more than 4 bicycle parking spaces may be substituted (96 vehicle parking spaces and 4 bicycle parking spaces). (2) When motorcycle parking is provided consistent with this article, motorcycle parking spaces may be used to satisfy the required parking spaces up to a maximum of 4 percent provided the number of required parking spaces is 25 or more. b. Reduction. If the developer believes that the number of required parking spaces is more than what is actually needed, the developer can provide documentary evidence to the Plan Commission and the commission can modify the number of required parking spaces based on such information, but not more than a 40 percent reduction. If approved, an area on the property must be held in reserve for the potential future development of paved off-street parking to meet the full requirements. This reserved area must be shown and noted on the site plan, maintained as open space, and developed with paved off-street Page 63 of 81 Village of Jackson Chapter 50 – Zoning - Discussion Draft (07-06-2026) - 21-4 parking spaces when the Zoning Administrator determines that such off-street parking is necessary due to parking demand on the property which exceeds original expectations. The Zoning Administrator may require the property owner to provide a financial guarantee as set forth in Article 4 in the amount of 125 percent of the anticipated cost of installing the required number of parking spaces. c. Maximum number of spaces. For land uses located in a business base zoning district, the number of parking spaces provided in a ground surface parking lot may not exceed the number of minimum parking spaces by more than 15 percent, except that the Plan Commission may allow more parking spaces above that threshold as a special exception pursuant to the procedures and requirements in Article 5 provided the commission determines that additional spaces are needed for that particular use or location. There is no maximum limit on the number of parking spaces when located in a parking garage or similar structure. d. Mixed-use requirements. For mixed uses, the total requirements for off-street parking spaces is the sum of the requirements for the various land uses. Off-street parking facilities for one use may not be considered as providing parking facilities for any other use except when considered shared parking as allowed in this article. e. Compact cars and motorcycles. Up to 10 percent of the required number of parking spaces may be sized for compact cars and/or motorcycles. Such parking spaces must be designated by a sign or other means approved by the Zoning Administrator. 50-2808 Shared parking Generally. The Zoning Administrator, in their discretion, may allow shared parking consistent with this section during the site plan review process provided the applicant clearly shows the timeframe for peak parking demand varies between the different land uses that are subject to the shared parking arrangement. By way of example, Exhibit 21-2 shows different land uses that could potentially share parking spaces. a. Maximum. The maximum amount of required parking spaces that can be shared is 50 percent of the lesser number of required spaces. For example, if the first land use requires 100 parking spaces and the second land use requires 50 spaces, the maximum number of shared spaces is 25. b. Minimum requirements. Shared parking must meet the standards listed below. (3) The area of the parking lot that is designated for shared use, must be located on an adjoining parcel and within 500 feet of the building or use requiring the parking. (4) Directional signage is provided where appropriate and allowed. (5) Pedestrian routes are direct, clear, and safe. c. Shared-use agreement. The parties involved in the joint use of off-street parking facilities must document their agreement by a legal instrument approved by the Village Attorney as to form and content. Such instrument, when approved as conforming to the provisions of this part, must be recorded in the Register of Deeds office for Washington County, and a copy filed with the Zoning Administrator.

One of 8 accessible parking spaces, but always at least one, must be van-accessible. c. Location. Accessible spaces serving a particular building must be located on the shortest accessible route of travel between the parking and the accessible entrance. When there are multiple entrances to a building of similar prominence (e.g., shopping mall) with near-by parking, accessible spaces must be dispersed and provided at each location. In parking facilities that do not serve a particular building, accessible parking must be located on the shortest accessible route of travel to an accessible pedestrian entrance of the parking facility. d. Dimensions. Accessible parking spaces must be at least 96 inches wide. e. Vertical clearance. For van-accessible parking spaces, a 98-inch high clearance must be maintained above the space, access aisle, and on the route to and from the van-accessible space. f. Maximum slope. Accessible spaces and adjoining access aisles must have a maximum slope of 1:50 in all directions. When accessible spaces are provided in an existing parking lot, the spaces must be located on the most level surface close to the accessible building entrance. g. Signage. Each accessible space must be so designated with a sign identified by the international symbol of accessibility mounted on a vertical pole. In addition, van-accessible spaces must be so designated with a sign indicating “Van Accessible.” Such signs must be located so they cannot be obscured by a vehicle parked in the space (at least 6 feet in height). h. Pavement striping and markings. The boundary of the access aisle must be marked and the end of which may be squared or a semicircle. Additional pavement markings denoting the space are optional. i. Accessible route. An accessible route must be provided from the accessible parking space to the accessible entrance of the building. It must be at least 36 inches wide, without steps or curbs. It must be paved and not contain any feature that would restrict, inhibit, or unreasonably impeded the movement of a physically disabled individual. j. Access aisle. An access aisle for an accessible space must be the same length as the adjacent parking space it serves and be at least 60 inches wide for car access and 96 inches wide for van- accessibility.

Legislative findings. The Village Board makes the following findings with regard to bicycle parking: (1) The provision of bicycle parking recognizes cycling as a transportation mode that is growing in popularity. (2) Designated bicycle parking areas help keep sidewalks clear for pedestrians and prevents damage to trees and street furniture often used to secure bicycles when racks are not present. (3) Properly designed bicycle parking areas enhance security and visibility, helping to prevent theft and vandalism of parked bicycles. (4) The provision of bicycle parking allows property owners to install fewer vehicle parking spaces, an important cost savings. b. Generally. Bicycle parking may be provided consistent with the standards in Appendix B. c. Location. Bicycle parking must be located in visible and prominent locations near the building entrance and must be as close or closer to the entrance than the nearest parking space. Under no circumstance should bicycle parking be more than 100 feet from the building entrance. Where there is more than one building on a site, or where a building has more than one main entrance, the parking must be distributed to serve all buildings or main entrances. If possible, racks should be protected from the elements by a roof, awning, overhang, or similar covering. Racks must not be placed so they block the entrance or inhibit pedestrian flow in or out of the building. d. Design. Bicycle parking areas should be incorporated into the overall building design, parking lot layout, and pedestrian circulation and coordinated with street furniture (e.g., benches, street lights, planters) when it is part of the overall project. e. Accessibility. Each bicycle parking space must be accessible without moving another bicycle. In most circumstances, a space 2 feet by 6 feet is adequate. When needed, an aisle at least 5 feet wide must be provided (Exhibit 21-9) . f. Lighting. Bicycle parking spaces must have adequate lighting to promote security and avoid vandalism and theft. g. Rack design. Bicycle parking may be provided in ground, wall, or ceiling mounted racks. Ground-mounted racks should meet the following requirements: (1) The rack holds the bicycle frame, not just a wheel. (2) A U-shaped shackle lock can be used to secure the bicycle to the rack. (3) The rack is designed to accommodate a wide range of bicycle sizes, wheel sizes, and types. (4) The rack is covered with material that will not chip the paint off of a bicycle that leans against it. (5) The rack does not have hazards, such as sharp edges. Exhibit 21-8.

Findings. A cross-access connection between two adjoining properties uses can improve traffic flow, safety, and land use efficiency as more fully described below. (1) By allowing vehicles to move between properties without re-entering public roads, cross-access connections help decrease congestion on major streets. (2) Fewer vehicles making left turns or entering/exiting from multiple driveways reduces the potential for crashes. (3) Fire trucks, ambulances, and police will have multiple access routes to respond more quickly to emergencies. (4) Businesses can potentially share parking lots, reducing the need for excessive pavement and improving land efficiency. (5) Shoppers can easily access multiple businesses without having to make multiple stops onto a busy street. (6) Cross-access connections can facilitate pedestrian and bicycle access between properties, encouraging multimodal transportation. b. Applicability. A cross-access connection should be pursued between adjoining properties when (1) both of the properties allow commercial and mixed-uses, (2) both of the properties are located along a collector or arterial street, and (3) the Zoning Administrator determines it is feasible to make the connection. c. Easement. The adjoining properties must be subject to a cross-access easement agreement which is recorded in the register of deeds office for Washington County. Exhibit 21-11.

(3) Other information the Zoning Administrator deems necessary to ensure compliance with this article. 50-2907 through 50-2999 reserved Page 77 of 81 Village of Jackson Chapter 50 - Zoning - Discussion Draft (07-06-2026) - 24-1 ARTICLE 24 NONCONFORMITIES 50-3100 Legislative findings The Village Board makes the following legislative findings relating to nonconformities: (1) There may be existing lots, structures, uses, and signs in the Village that were lawfully established but that do not now comply with one or more provisions of the zoning district in which they are located. (2) It is not the intent of this chapter to perpetuate and/or encourage the long-term continuance of nonconformities because they are inconsistent with the requirements and character of the zoning districts involved, or to permit nonconformities to be enlarged, expanded, or extended except as allowed in this division. (3) State law permits the reconstruction of nonconforming structures under certain circumstances. 50-3101 Official registry of nonconformities a. Content of registry. The Zoning Administrator may develop and maintain a registry of (1) lots known by him or her to be considered nonconforming, (2) buildings known by him or her to be considered nonconforming, and (3) land uses known by him or her to be considered nonconforming and those which have registered as a nonconforming use consistent with the requirements in Article 5. b. Form of registry. At the discretion of the Zoning Administrator, the registry may consist of either a written list or digital records. c. Disclaimer. Given the nature of the registry, the Village does not warrant that such information is complete and/or accurate in all respects. 50-3102 Nonconforming lots a. Generally. Any existing lot within a single-family zoning district which does not meet the minimum lot size requirements of the zoning district may be used as a single family building site provided (1) the use is permitted in the district regulations, (2) the lot was a separate and distinct lot of record prior to ____, 2026, (3) the residence is constructed without violating the yard requirements, and (4) the floor area requirements are met. b. Alteration of property boundary lines. The location of a property boundary line of a nonconforming lot may not be modified by any means, except to make the lot less nonconforming. c. Survey gaps. A gap between surveyed lots does not constitute a nonconforming lot. 50-3103 Nonconforming buildings a. Generally. A legal nonconforming building may be used for any conforming use. b. Enlargement. A nonconforming building that is used for a conforming use may be enlarged provided the building addition complies with all requirements and the Plan Commission authorizes the enlargement pursuant to the requirements in Article 5. c. Building addition within setback If a building is nonconforming due only to setbacks, it may be expanded within the building setbacks provided (1) the established nonconforming setback line is not less than 50 percent of the required setback; (2) the addition does not extend beyond the established nonconforming setback line; and (3) the addition is no greater than the area of the existing building. d. New foundation/basement. The placement of a new foundation or basement under an existing nonconforming building that is not located in the 100-year floodplain is permitted provided the foundation or basement does not extend beyond the vertical extent of the existing exterior wall. e. Unsafe conditions. Nothing in this article prevents the Building Inspector or any other Village official from initiating remedial or enforcement actions when a nonconforming building is declared unsafe or presents a Page 78 of 81 Village of Jackson Chapter 50 - Zoning - Discussion Draft (07-06-2026) - 24-2 danger to the public health, safety, or welfare; constitutes a public nuisance; or is in violation of any licensing regulation. f. Ordinary repair and maintenance, and remodeling. Nothing in this division prohibits or limits, based on cost, the repair, maintenance, renovation, or remodeling of a nonconforming building. g. Reconstruction following damage. A nonconforming building that is damaged by violent wind, vandalism, fire, flood, ice, snow, mold, or infestation on or after March 2, 2006, may be restored to its condition (e.g., size, location, and use) prior to the damage, except the building may be larger when necessary to comply with state or federal requirements.[1] h. Relocation. A nonconforming building may not be moved or relocated to any other location on the lot unless the building is made to conform to all regulations of the zoning district in which it is located. Editorial notes: [1] See § 62.23(7)(h), Wis. Stats. Also see nonconforming requirements for floodplains in Chapter 16 of the municipal code. 50-3104 Nonconforming uses a. Generally. A legal nonconforming use may continue to exist so long as it remains otherwise lawful, subject to the provisions in this section. b. Cessation of use. If a nonconforming use ceases for any reason, whether intentional or otherwise, for more than 365 consecutive calendar days, from the date specified by the Zoning Administrator, the use may not thereafter be reestablished.[1] Exempt from this section are single- and two-family residential structures used for residential purposes. When a business operation is of a seasonal nature (e.g., marinas, summer camps), the periods when the business is not normally active are excluded from the time period mentioned above. If the Zoning Administrator determines that a nonconforming use has ceased to operate for more than the aforementioned time period, they are authorized to initiate the process established under Article 5 to terminate the nonconforming use. However, if a temporary structure houses a nonconforming use, the use must terminate when the temporary structure is removed. c. Change in extent. Except as allowed in this subsection, a nonconforming use may not be enlarged, increased, or expanded and may not occupy a greater area than what existed on the effective date of this chapter or any amendment thereto that created the nonconforming use. A single-family dwelling and a two-family dwelling unit which is a nonconforming use may be enlarged one time up to a total of 150 square feet of gross floor area. d. Limitation on structural alterations to building housing nonconforming use. Structural alterations to a building housing a nonconforming use may not exceed, on an accumulative percentage basis, 50 percent of the equalized assessed value of the structure.[2] For example, if a property owner makes structural alterations, the cost of which equals 40 percent of the current equalized assessed value of the building, any additional structural alterations are limited to 10 percent of the equalized assessed value at the time of the work. e. Damage to structure housing nonconforming use. Except as allowed in this subsection, a building housing a nonconforming use that is damaged beyond 50 percent of its present equalized assessed value, the nonconforming use may not be reestablished. However, the owner of any one- or two-family dwelling unit which was used exclusively for residential use on June 15, 1981, which has been continuously used for residential use since June 15, 1981, up to the date of the casualty referred to hereafter, and which has continuously been located in a business or industrial zoning district since June 15, 1981, shall, in the event of destruction of the residence by fire or other casualty in an amount greater than 50 percent of assessed value, be allowed reconstruct the residence on the lot where originally located. The size and number of units of the reconstructed residence may not be greater than the size and number of units of the original residence. The burden of proof of establishing continuous residential use, size and number of units shall be on the landowner. If reconstruction does not start within 12 months following the casualty, and continue in good faith to completion, any subsequent reconstruction and use of the building, structure or premises must conform to the regulations of the district in which the building is located. f. Change of location. A nonconforming use may not be moved in whole or in part to any other part of the lot or to another structure than what was occupied on the effective date of this chapter or any amendment thereto that created the nonconforming use. g. Casual, occasional, accessory, or incidental use. Casual, occasional, accessory, or incidental use after the primary nonconforming use has terminated, does not perpetuate a nonconforming use.[3] Page 79 of 81 Village of Jackson Chapter 50 - Zoning - Discussion Draft (07-06-2026) - 24-3 h. Change of production. A change in the method or quantity of production and the incorporation of new technology into a nonconforming use is permitted provided the original character of the use remains the same.[4] i. Termination due to effects on public health, safety, and welfare. If the Zoning Administrator determines that a nonconforming use, regardless of its duration, is harmful to the public health, safety, or welfare, they should follow the procedure outlined in Article 5 relating to termination of a use.[5] j. Unsafe conditions. Nothing in this chapter prevents the strengthening or restoring to a safe condition of any structure or part thereof, provided the work conforms to the provisions in this chapter. k. Licensing. The operator of a nonconforming use must obtain any licenses required by the state of Wisconsin, or its designated agent; Washington County; or the Village and maintain the licenses for the life of the use or until the entity no longer requires the license. l. Conversion to another nonconforming use. Subject to the requirements in Article 5, a nonconforming use may be converted to a different nonconforming use provided the new use is less nonconforming. Any nonconforming use that has been converted continues to be subject to all applicable provisions related to nonconforming uses and to the conversion order as approved by the Plan Commission. m. Permissible accessory residential uses. If an existing single-family dwelling unit is classified as a nonconforming use, the establishment of accessory residential uses normally incidental to a single-family dwelling is not considered to be an expansion of a nonconforming use and is permitted provided the accessory use is otherwise allowed by the zoning code and in the case of a detached building does not exceed 576 square feet. n. Multiple residences on a single lot. An existing residential lot with more than one principal structure built prior to August 15, 2011 may be divided to accommodate the placing of the existing principal buildings onto separate lots or, the reduction of existing buildings to one-to-a-parcel, if, in the judgment of the Plan Commission, the resulting lots or parcels or the resulting zoning is not detrimental to the neighborhood nor to the spirit and intent of this code, and, further, taking into account the need to continue conformity to zoning district classification regulations, if possible.

Stats. 50-3107 Special provisions related to the shoreland-wetland overlay district The shoreland-wetland provisions of this chapter authorized by § 62.231, Wis. Stats., do not limit the repair, reconstruction, renovation, remodeling, or expansion of a nonconforming structure in existence on the effective date of the shoreland wetland provisions, or of any environmental control facility in existence on May 7, 1982, related to such a structure. All other modifications to nonconforming structures are subject to § 62.23 (7)(h), Wis. Stats., which limits total lifetime structural repairs and alterations to 50 percent of current fair market value. 50-3108 through 50-3199 reserved Page 80 of 81 Village of Jackson Chapter 50 - Zoning - Discussion Draft (07-06-2026) - 25-1 ARTICLE 25 ENFORCEMENT 50-3200 Authority for enforcement The Village has the authority under § 62.23 (7)(f), Wis. Stats., to enforce the provisions of this chapter and establish penalties. Nothing in this code prevents the Village from enforcing any other requirement in the municipal code that may apply. 50-3201 Actions constituting a violation Each action that is not in full compliance with this chapter and/or with a condition or requirement of an approval issued pursuant to this chapter constitutes a separate and distinct violation. Each day that a violation continues is considered a separate offense. 50-3202 Other remedies The Village or any aggrieved person may seek an injunction, restraining order, or other equitable relief in court to stop any violation of this chapter and/or an order requiring the property owner to restore the property to the condition that existed prior to the violation. 50-3203 Continuation Nothing in this chapter prohibits the continuation of previous enforcement actions undertaken by the Village pursuant to previous and valid ordinances and laws. 50-3204 Penalties In addition to any other legal and equitable relief allowed by state law or in Village ordinance, any person that violates this chapter shall be subject to any penalty established by the Village Board as part of the Village fee schedule.
