Comment from Citizens specific to items on this meeting agenda None. 4a. Update/ Presentation on the Food Truck Operations for Gabriel's Taqueria located at 524 E. Wisconsin Avenue: Gallo reported this is an update on the permit for this food truck which was approved 6 months ago at a new location. Gallo talked with the owner of the business next to the food truck who said the fumes from the truck’s exhaust stopped immediately; the truck was moved further north; the licensee received his renewal license from Waukesha County which expires in 2027; and there have been no issues in this new location. The Police, Fire and Building Inspection Departments have no issues except the truck must be 10’ from the nearby business which currently it is not. Members noted the truck is located next to the drive lane for the parking lot and would be more comfortable with cones to keep people from walking into the drive lane. Gallo said this can be reviewed in December when he comes back in for renewal of his permit. No action was taken. 4b. Update/Presentation on the Food Truck Operations for Taqueria Doblado at 202 E. Wisconsin Avenue: Gallo reported this is an update on the permit for this food truck which was approved 6 months ago at a new location. Gallo said the licensee received his renewal license from Waukesha County which expires in 2027; the applicant posted signage above the coolers in his store which indicates no alcohol consumption outside the building; the Police, Fire and Building Inspection Departments have no issue; and the truck must be 10’ from the building next door which it is not. Gallo added the applicant has a second truck at 212 E Wisconsin Ave which hasn’t moved, and he would like it gone. Members questioned how close the truck is to the grocery entrance. Natalie, on behalf of the applicant, said the truck next door will be moved. Chairman Rosek asked Gallo to let the members know when the truck next door is moved. No action was taken. 4c. Consider/ recommend the Extraterritorial Certified Survey Map to divide 1 lot into 2 parcels at W394 N5026 Reddelien Road, Town of Oconomowoc: Gallo reported this property is located in the Town of Oconomowoc, contains a house and 20 acres, and the City boundary is located directly north. The applicant wants to divide the home off (approx. 2.0 acres) from the remaining agricultural property. There is a currently a 33 acre ROW dedication on the property, and Gallo wants the document changed to show the ROW to be 50’ total which is required on the City’s official map. The applicant is aware of this but does not want to give up the additional land. Gallo recommended approval with the change of the ROW dedication from 33’ to a total 50’. The applicant, Barbara Weisensel, W394N4988 Reddelien Rd said they do not plan to liquidate the property but keep it as the property has been in the family a long time; requests a 2 2 Plan Commission - August 05, 2026 waiver to be allowed to dedicate only 33’; and said 9 properties on Reddelien Road south of the RR tracks and properties on Allen Road have a 33’ ROW dedication. Chairman Rosek asked if any of the surrounding properties comply, and Gallo said the property across the street does comply but if the road is widened, the City would need to purchase the additional 17’ from those properties. Gallo said there are no plans to widen the road at this point. Rosek said it is only a dedication; if we don’t do it now on this CSM, when the road is widened the cost to purchase the additional 17’ will be put on taxpayers; and said the City may never expand the road. Members said this is purely a land use decision and is up to the Council to decide; agrees should ask for the 50’ ROW dedication; nothing will change on the property until the road is widened; there are 9 other properties with the same issue; and this is the right decision for planning. Gallo said the dedication does not create nonconformity with the home. Motion by Frederick to recommend approval to the Common Council of the Weisensel Certified Survey Map at W394 N5026 Reddelien Road subject to increasing the right-of-way dedication along Reddelien Road to a total of 50’; second by Kowieski. Motion carried 7-0. 4d. Consider/recommend the Final Plat for Weston Acres Phase I to create 25 single-family lots & 6 duplex lots located along Reddelien Road, between Marks Road and Weston Ridge Road: Gallo said this is for the approval of the Final Plat for Weston Acres Phase I. The Preliminary Plat was approved last year; will contain 25 single-family residential lots and 6 duplex lots; conforms to zoning and the Preliminary Plat; and Reddelien Road has a 100’ street ROW width which has been dedicated to the City by the developer. Gallo recommended approval. Motion by Rosek to recommend to Council approval of the Final Plat for Weston Acres Phase I subdivision located along Reddelien Road between Marks Road and Weston Ridge Road; second by Ellis. Motion carried 7-0. 4e. Consider/act on the Design Guidelines for the Harvest at Pabst Farms mixed-use development located north of I-94 between Sawyer Road and Town Centre Way: Gallo explained this mixed-use development will be located on both sides of Costco and in the City and Village of Summit. The intent of the design guidelines is to make the overall appearance of the development consistent with similar designs and colors of buildings. A team from the City, which included the Chairman of the Architectural Commission and Commissioner Frederick from the Plan Commission, has been working on the guidelines with the Village of Summit for several months. Summit’s Village Board had a working session on the guidelines and made a few tweaks but their biggest issue is with 30’ light poles. They want 15’ poles on a 3’ base throughout the development in the Village, and we want 30’ poles which are the same as Costco. Gallo said it may come down to the poles in the City being 30’ tall and those in the Village at 18’ tall. This evening the Architectural Commission reviewed and approved the standards at their meeting, and Chairman Flint emailed his recommendation for the guidelines to be approved. Commissioner Frederick said the Village likes to have a darker community and are sensitive to light pollution. The Mayor offered to go to the next meeting of the Village Board. Commissioner Frederick said he wanted to see continuity with site design and architecture throughout the development, is happy with the guidelines and feels each community got what it wanted. The Mayor was concerned with the tweaks made by the Village, and Gallo explained some of the items, said he can look at the Village’s suggestions and decide if they are major changes. Riffle said the City only has control over our own borders and if there are substantial changes, they can bring those items back to the Plan Commission for review. Scott Yauck from Cobalt Partners provided an overview of the project; said the changes by Summit are minor; can live with the two different light pole sizes; noted 30’ tall poles are not out of line and using shorter light poles will require more of them; and wants the residential area to be harmonious. Members liked the overall design and green space area; page 36 has limited detail on the design of the single-family homes; the team put in a lot of work; and it is a very well written document. Frye explained some of the changes with the wording. 3 3 Plan Commission - August 05, 2026 Motion by Byzeck to approve the Design Guidelines for the Harvest at Pabst Farms; second by Rosek. Motion carried 7-0. Planning Department Correspondence – June 2026 Gallo referred to the list of items in the Plan Commission packet. Motion by Wickman to adjourn the meeting at 7:01 PM; second by Ellis. Motion carried 7-0. _____________________________________ Chris Dehnert Deputy City Clerk 4 Olde Highlander Subdivision Add#4 Planning Staff Report City of Oconomowoc Plan Commission –9/2/2026 Final Plat – Fifth Phase Property Location: Extensions of MacGregor Road, Alasdar Drive, and Olde Highlander Drive.
