Building/ Sec 27.

5. Bilse Family LLC and Elver/Public Hearing to approve technical correction on CSM and
Rezone and CSM/Rezone for land involved in previously approved Lot Line Adjustment/
Sec 17.
MOTION 1 (Jester/Sullivan): to recommend to the town board approval of the corrected
CSM for the Bilse lots AND the CSM reflecting the LLA to the Elver lot as they are
consistent with the previously approved lot line adjustment that was used to correct a
technical requirement in the prior Bilse CSM. 6-ayes, 0-nays. MOTION CARRIED
MOTION 2 (Jester/Bunn): to recommend to the town board approval of the revised rezone
application #12209 as presented in the slides. The Elver lot is moving from RR4 to RM8
because of the increase in size due to the approved lot line adjustment. These lots are not
eligible for further division per the town land use plan. 6-ayes, 0-nays MOTION CARRIED
Background: Last month the town talked about the need to alter the approved CSM due to a
technical issue with the layout. This issue was solved via a lot line adjustment of the affected
area to the adjoining lot. The PC/TB approved the lot line adjustment in Sept 2025. This request
merely updates the previously approved CSM and Rezone paperwork to conform to the approved
correction.
Because the Bilse lots 3 and 4 changed sizes slightly, the paperwork for the rezone application
needed to be amended – to reflect new lot sizes and legal descriptions – the Bilse lots are staying
in the same zoning districts as approved in August. The Elver lot is moving from RR4 to RM8
because the lot size increased to 8.3 with the lot line adjustment – this zoning district is
consistent with the uses as Residential and Ag and are supported in the town land use plan.
PUBLIC HEARING: Opened and closed without anyone wishing to make public comments.
6. S. and C. Amen/ Public Hearing CSM and Rezone for lands in previously approved Lot
Line Adjustment/ Sec 13.
MOTION 1 (Jester/Dorn): to recommend to the town board approval of the preliminary
CSM for the Amen lands as it is consistent with last month’s approved lot line adjustment
and the town land use plan. 6-ayes, 0-nays MOTION CARRIED
MOTION 2(Jester/ Aburomia) 2: to recommend to the town board approval of the rezone
Dane County petition #12227 of the Amen lands from SFR1 and AT35 to RM16. This
rezone is consistent with the use of the land for a residence and agricultural uses and the
goals of the town land use plan. These lands are still eligible for division per a concept plan
on file with the town of Springdale. 6-ayes, 0-nays MOTION CARRIED
Background: Last month the town approved a lot line adjustment that combines a 1 ac residential
CSM with the surrounding agricultural lands. The purpose of the lot line adjustment was to allow
a residential accessory building for storage and hobby farm uses to be built near the house (but
that would have crossed lot lines and setbacks) without combining the lots. These actions
approve the official map and rezone following the approval of that lot line adjustment approval.
PUBLIC HEARING: Opened and Closed without any public comments.
7. J Voell/ 2253 State Hwy 92/ Public Hearing Building: Envelope Change on Concept
Plan/Sec. 19.
MOTION (Bunn/ Sullivan): to recommend to the town board approval of an additional
optional building envelope location on the Thompson concept plan in the to the Southwest
corner. 6-ayes, 0-nays MOTION CARRIED
PUBLIC HEARING: Opened and Closed without any public comment.
Discussion: This property is eligible for one additional density unit. The July 2024 concept
plan shows options for that density unit:Option A or B. This request adds an option C to
give the landowner choices that are consistent with the land use plan and give the
landowner options to find an approvable driveway path to a new building site.
8. A. Mackler/ Mackler Trust Lands north of PD east of P /Public Hearing for Change to
Building Envelope/Concept Plan/ Sec 10. Removed from the agenda by applicant prior to
the meeting but after the meeting was posted.
