Application for conditional use permits shall
be made in writing to the Town of Winneconne Plan Commission on forms
furnished by the Town of Winneconne Zoning Administrator and shall
include the following where applicable:
A. Names and addresses of the applicant and/or owner
of the subject site.
B. Description of the subject site by lot, block and
recorded subdivision or by metes and bounds; address of the subject
site; type of structure; proposed operation or use of the structure
or site; number of employees; the zoning district in which the subject
site lies; and a plot plan.
C. Additional information, such as ground surface elevations,
basement and first floor elevations, utility elevations, roads, contours,
historic and probable future floodwater elevations, areas subject
to inundation by floodwaters, depths of inundation, floodproofing
measures, soil types, slope, boundaries, and plans for proposed structures,
giving dimensions and elevations pertinent to the determination of
the hydraulic capacity of the structure or its effects on flood flows
may be required.
There shall be a public hearing upon any application
for a conditional use permit. The Plan Commission shall conduct the
hearing and shall fix a reasonable time and place and give public
notice thereof in accordance with applicable requirements of the Wisconsin
Statutes. Recommendations of approval or disapproval, with or with
out conditions, shall be forwarded to the Town Board for final action.
The Plan Commission, however, shall not have the power to act upon
conditional uses in areas such as shorelands, where applicable statutes
of the State of Wisconsin withhold such power from the Town.
All conditional uses must be in accordance with
the purpose and intent of this chapter and shall not be hazardous,
harmful, offensive or otherwise adverse to the environmental quality,
water quality, shoreland cover, or property values in the Town of
Winneconne. The Plan Commission shall review the site, and existing
and proposed structures. They may also review architectural plans,
neighboring land and water uses, parking areas, driveway locations,
highway access, traffic generation and circulation, drainage, waste
disposal, water supply systems, and the effect of the proposed use,
structure, operation and improvement upon flood damage protection,
water quality, shoreland cover, natural beauty and wildlife habitat
as they deem necessary.
Conditional uses shall expire within 12 months
unless substantial work has commenced pursuant to their approval.
A copy of all decisions granting or denying applications affecting
property located in a floodplain or shoreland area shall be given
to the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.
