1. The meeting was called to order at 5:30 p.m. by Vraniak.
2. Discuss/possible action concerning an application for a two lot Certified Survey
Map (CSM) submitted by Anthony Kasper of Birrenkott Surveying, agent for
Ellen Pamperin, for the purpose of separating the two existing residences.
Property located at 3949 Hoepker Road and 5794 Portage Road, parcel number
0810-152-8600-8. Dan Birrenkott, Birrenkott Surveying, explained that Ms.
Pamperin built the original house in 1956 and subsequently built the second house
on the property for her parents. She would now like to separate the houses into
two separate lots. Birrenkott further explained that the extra lot (lot one) meets
the 20,000 square feet minimum and the 40 foot set back from Hoepker Road
required by the City of Madison. Urban inquired if the houses are currently
served by separate wells and if so; where the well is on proposed lot one.
Birrenkott replied that he will double check but he believes the bull’s eye by the
driveway is the well location. Motion: Hess/Stoflet to recommend approval of the
CSM to the Town Board contingent upon the satisfaction of any conditions
recommended by Dane County and City of Madison. Motion carried.
Motion: Hess/Legler to take the agenda out of order and proceed to items 4 & 5.
Motion carried. (NOTE: minutes are in agenda order, not meeting order).
3. A preliminary consultation regarding a conceptual plan for a multi-tenant building
housing a liquor store, small restaurant and apartments. Property located at 5921
Felland Road (old Burke Station), parcel numbers 0810-233-7512-9 and 0810-
233-7534-3. Brad Koning, Shulfer Architects, explained that Mark and Dan
Hoover have an option to purchase the properties and are interested in
constructing a 4,000 square foot multi-tenant building for the use of a liquor store,
small restaurant-sandwich shop with 3-4 one bedroom efficiency apartments on
the upper level. He also explained that the proposed building would have a drive-
thru parallel to Felland Road which would serve both the liquor store and the
sandwich shop. There would also be a small inside seating area for the restaurant
customers as well as outdoor seating. Although the liquor store may at times host
wine and beer tastings, it will not serve alcoholic beverages as part of its day to
day operations. Hess inquired about the origin of the name- Snow Leopard
Spirits. Mark Hoover explained that the name was inspired by a trip to and his
partnership in Bhutan. Hoover also indicated that he would like to place a marker
on the property to denote the history of the Burke Station. Hess noted that the
property would be served by well and sewer however, the City of Madison might
extend City services in the future. Urban asked about the existing building on the
property. Hoover indicated that he plans to raze the building and will contact Sun
Prairie Volunteer Fire Department to see if they would want to use burn it as a
training exercise. Plan Commission members indicated that they were generally
in favor of the proposed use and would provide specific comments when a formal
application is submitted. Koning said that they plan to submit an application to
the Town and County in time for the County’s ZLR meeting in October. Hoover
indicated that he would like approval prior to the end of the year.
