absorption sanitary sewerage system site, or the construction of any
well which is used to obtain water for ultimate human consumption.
(Reserved)
A.
Purpose and authority.
(1)
The Village Board of the Village of Slinger recognizes that the people
of the Village of Slinger depend exclusively on groundwater for a
safe drinking water supply and that certain land uses in the Village
of Slinger environmental setting can seriously degrade water quality.
Therefore, the designated best use of the unconfined groundwater of
the Village of Slinger is for public and private water supply and
it is the policy of the Village to maintain its groundwater resources
as near to the natural condition of purity as reasonably possible
for the safeguarding of the public health, safety, and welfare.
(2)
The purpose of the Groundwater Protection Overlay District is to
protect key groundwater recharge areas by imposing appropriate land-use
restrictions in these areas. Wisconsin Act 410 of 1983, specifically
includes groundwater protection among the purposes for which local
zoning power may be exercised.[1] The restrictions included herein are in addition to those
of the underlying zoning districts or any other provisions of the
zoning or other Village ordinance.
[1]
Editor's Note: See § 62.23(7)(c), Wis. Stats.
B.
Designation of municipal or private well field groundwater protection
zones.
(1)
The boundaries for the groundwater recharge protection zones for
the groundwater Protection Overlay District are as shown on the map
"Groundwater Protection Districts for the Village of Slinger Well
Fields" dated February 24, 1993. (See Fig. A1 for examples of proposed
wellhead protection zones for Well Field #5.)[2]
[2]
Editor's Note: The map and Fig. A1 are on file in the Village
office.
(2)
Said map is hereby adopted by reference becoming a part of this chapter
as if the map were fully described herein. The groundwater recharge
basins for the designated well fields are divided into three zones
reflecting the potential for land-use activities to adversely impact
the well fields and the subsequent scope of land-use restrictions
needed.
C.
Zone A, Groundwater Protection Overlay District.
(1)
Zone A is the immediate area around the well field, commonly known
as the "cone of depression," in which groundwater elevations are lowered
by pumping. This area is subject to the highest contaminant threat,
and therefore, the land use restrictions are the most severe of the
recharge zones.
(3)
The following uses are permitted upon proper application as provided
in this chapter, only after such use shall have been approved in writing
by the Planning Commission. Such approval shall be consistent with
the general purpose and intent of this chapter and shall be based
upon evidence as may be presented at such public hearings, tending
to show the desirability of specific uses from the standpoint of the
public interest because of such factors as (without limitation because
of enumeration) groundwater pollution, smoke, dust, noxious or toxic
gases and odors, noise, glare, vibration, operation of heavy machinery,
heavy vehicular traffic, increased traffic on the streets and other
safety and health factors; such uses shall meet the specific conditions
attached below and such other conditions as the Planning Commission
deems necessary in furthering the purpose of this chapter.
(4)
The following use is expressly prohibited in this zone:
(a)
All uses not permitted or special exception in this section.
(5)
The following standards apply to all uses in Zone A of the Groundwater
Protection Overlay District:
(a)
On-site sanitary system with any type of discharge, on lots
less than 40,000 square feet.
(b)
Underground tanks are prohibited.
(c)
Natural vegetation not treated with fertilizers and pesticides.
A minimum of 85% of lot must be retained in natural vegetation.
(d)
Lot size: 40,000 square feet per residential unit. Multiple-family
units and cluster developments may increase density by 50% if restrictive
covenant maintains natural vegetation requirement.
(e)

(i)
Hazardous/toxic materials storage and use are prohibited except
for normal home use.
(j)
Hazardous/toxic wastes. On-site treatment, transfer, or disposal
is prohibited.
D.
Zone B, Groundwater Protection Overlay District.
(1)
Zone B is the recharge area upgradient of Zone A to the point where
it is estimated that groundwater and contaminants will take five years
to reach the pumping well(s). This is an intermediate zone and land
use measures are slightly less restrictive than Zone A because of
the longer flow times and greater contaminant dilution and attenuation
potential.
(3)
(4)
The following uses are expressly prohibited in this zone:
(a)
Landfills.
(b)
Feedlots.
(c)
Wastewater treatment facilities.
(d)

A minimum of 80% of lots with on-site sewage disposal must be retained
in natural vegetation. A minimum of 60% of lots with municipal sewer
must be retained in natural vegetation. A minimum of 60% of lots with
municipal sewer must be retained in natural vegetation.
(d)
Lot size for residential uses: 20,000 square feet per unit with
municipal sewer, or one acre with on-site sewage disposal. Multiple-family
and cluster developments may increase density by 50% if restrictive
covenant maintains natural vegetation requirement in sewered areas
or increases area of natural vegetation by 10% over minimum requirement
in unsewered areas.
(f)
Pesticide/fertilizer storage and use (including septage and
sludge landspreading) are prohibited except for normal home use or
where an agricultural best management practices plan approved by the
County Land Conservation Department guides usage.
(g)

The PUD Planned Unit Development Overlay District is intended
to permit developments that will, over a period of time, be enhanced
by coordinated area site planning, diversified location of structures,
diversified building types, and/or mixing of compatible uses. Such
developments are intended to provide a safe and efficient system for
pedestrian and vehicle traffic; to provide attractive recreation and
green spaces as integral parts of the developments; to enable economic
design in the location of public and private utilities and community
facilities; and to ensure adequate standards of construction and planning.
The PUD Overlay District under this chapter will allow for flexibility
of overall development design with benefits from developer and the
community, while at the same time maintaining insofar as possible,
the land use density and other standards, or use requirements set
forth in the underlying basic zoning district.
A.
Permitted uses. Uses permitted in a Planned Unit Development Overlay
District shall conform to uses generally permitted in the underlying
basic use districts. The bulk, spatial, height, green space, building
area, parking, landscaping, and similar development regulations of
the underlying basic use districts may be waived or modified (to be
more or less restrictive) if recommended by the Planning Commission
and approved by the Village Board. If no waiver or modification is
expressly given, individual structures and site development shall
comply with the specific requirements of the underlying basic use
district. All green space and parking requirements of the underlying
basic use district shall be complied with either individually or by
providing the combined green space and shared parking space required
for the entire development in one or more locations within the development.
[Amended 12-20-2021 by Ord. No. 12-02-2021]

Purpose. The Conservation Subdivision Overlay (CSO) District is established
for the following purposes:
(1)
To provide an overlay district that may be used in conjunction with
an underlying residential zoning district to promote development of
conservation subdivisions.
(2)
To preserve environmentally sensitive lands through permanent preservation
of open space and natural resources with housing concentrated on portions
of the site that have lower-quality natural features.
(3)
To provide open space areas that are commonly owned for passive and/or
active recreational use by residents of the development, and where
specifically established, for use by the general public.
(4)

that required in the underlying district, but shall not be less than
10,000 square feet with sanitary sewer service, or not less than 30,000
square feet without sanitary service.
F.
Setback and yards. The minimum setback and yard requirements in the
underlying zoning district may be modified in a conservation subdivision
to provide flexibility in the siting of homes relative to the attributes
of the individual lots or sites in the development. These requirements
shall be established on an individual development basis and shall
be determined prior to final plat approval. The minimum setback and
yard requirements shall be shown on the final plat or CSM.
G.
Minimum living area and maximum building height. Shall be as established
in the underlying Zoning District.
H.
Common open space. A conservation subdivision shall provide common
open space as follows:

which shall be platted as one or more outlots. Wetlands, floodplains,
floodways, ponds or natural water bodies may constitute a maximum
of 60% of the minimum common open space area.
(2)
Prior to any final approval action on a conservation subdivision,
the Village Parks and Recreation Board shall review the proposed common
open space to determine if any public parklands or any other public
land dedication is necessary in conjunction with the conservation
subdivision.
(3)
The ownership, maintenance, and stewardship of common open space
shall be accomplished by a homeowners' association and/or condominium
association in accord with Ch. 703, Wis. Stats. The subdivision applicant
shall provide a description of the bylaws of the proposed association,
and all documents governing the ownership, maintenance, and use restriction
for common facilities. The association shall be established by the
owner of the subdivision developer prior to the sale of any lots or
dwelling units in the development. All documents to establish such
association shall be approved by the Village Attorney prior to their
use by the developer.
(4)
No such owners' association shall be allowed to default and result
in the common open space being owned and maintained by the public.
(5)
Each unit owner in a conservation subdivision shall have an undividable
fractional ownership interest in the common open space outlot(s).
(6)
A deed restriction shall be established to prevent subdividing any
common open space which is part of a conservation subdivision.

Any amendments to the common open space documents after their initial
approval shall be reviewed and approved by the Village Attorney prior
to such amendments taking effect.
(9)
The following uses are permitted in common open space areas:
(a)
Conservation of open land in its natural state (for example,
woodland, fallow field, or managed meadow).
(b)
Silviculture, in keeping with established standards for selective
harvesting and sustained-yield forestry.
(c)
Neighborhood open space uses such as common areas, picnic areas,
community gardens, trails and similar low-impact passive recreational
uses specifically excluding motorized off-road vehicles, rifle ranges,
and other uses similar in character and potential impact as determined
by the Planning Commission.
(d)
Active noncommercial recreation areas, such as playing fields,
playgrounds, courts and bikeways, provided such areas do not encroach
on environmentally sensitive areas. Playing fields, playgrounds, and
courts shall not be located within 50 feet of abutting properties.
Parking facilities for the same shall also be permitted.
(e)
Golf courses may comprise the open space land. Their parking
areas and any associated structures shall not be included within the
minimum open space requirement; their parking and access ways may
be paved and lighted.
