A.
|
The following are detailed descriptions of the residential zoning
districts and their respective dimensional and bulk regulations, requirements,
and design standards. The various development options indicated are
"open space ratio," or OSR, driven. While the overall maximum gross
density stays essentially the same within each residential zoning
district for each option within a specific residential zoning district,
as the minimum OSR increases the maximum permitted net density increases.
Under the "conventional" and other options presented for each residential
zoning district, the site intensity and capacity calculations, as
well as the natural resource protection standards and guidelines set
forth in Divisions 15-3.0500 and 15-4.0100 of this Ordinance, shall
be adhered to.
|
B.
|
It is the expressed intent of this Ordinance that each buildable
lot of land, with an on-site sewage disposal system, whether existing
or newly subdivided, shall conform to a minimum lot size of 40,000
square feet and minimum lot width of 150 feet, regardless if the lot
conforms with a conventional or a special use OSR subdivision. Therefore,
a special use OSR subdivision shall not circumvent minimum sizes with
an on-site sewage disposal system.
|
C.
|
Every type of dwelling unit or structure hereafter referenced
to, erected in any residential zoning district, shall have a minimum
living area in square feet measured from the outside of the exterior
walls, including utility rooms, foyers, interior stairwells, hallways,
closets, columns, and walls, and finished half-basements or finished
portions of half-basements, but excluding basements and unfinished
half-basements, or unfinished portions of half-basements, open porches,
breezeways, garages, and other spaces not used frequently or during
extended periods for living, eating, or sleeping purposes in accordance
with this Division. If the finished area of a half-basement or finished
portion of a half-basement are included in the minimum living area
of a dwelling, the dwelling shall be automatically considered multi-story
and shall meet the minimum square footage requirements for multi-story.
|
A.
District Intent. The R-1 District is intended to:
1.
Permit residential development at intensities that
are consistent with the maintenance of a COUNTRYSIDE/ESTATE character
and a COUNTRYSIDE/ESTATE life-style as set forth in the City of Franklin
Comprehensive Master Plan and components thereof.
2.
Serve as a transitional district between the more
RURAL areas or farmland areas and the more SUBURBAN intensity areas
of the City.
The options in this district promote open space protection and
natural resource base protection. It is the most RURAL of the residence
land use districts.
|
B.
District Standards. The R-1 District is further
intended to have the development standards as set forth in Table 15-3.0201.
C.
Permitted, Accessory, and Special Uses. See Section
15-3.0602, Division 15-3.0700, Section 15-3.0702, and Section 15-3.0802

A.
District Intent. The R-1E District is intended to:
1.
Provide for EXECUTIVE type developments to allow
for multiple attached and detached dwelling units with larger lot
sizes, and moderate building, bulk and setback requirements to allow
for accessory uses such as guest homes, caretaker quarters, family
care providers and multi-generational living options, while providing
adequate buffers for adjacent lower density residential developments.
2.
No additional dwelling structure or an accessory
structure shall be permitted upon a lot until an occupancy permit
has been issued for a principal structure meeting the requirements
of Table 15-3.0201E.
3.
Dwelling units shall not be for rent, for multiple
occupancy developments or uses found under SIC Code No. 7011 Hotels
and Motels. Additional dwelling units shall be utilized by permitted
uses or members of the functional family unit.
4.
The Plan Commission may consider more than two principal
buildings per lot where more than two principal buildings are needed
for the orderly development of the parcel. When additional structures
are permitted, the Plan Commission may impose additional yard requirements,
floor area ratio limitations, residential density requirements, land
use intensity requirements, landscaping requirements, or parking requirements,
or may require a minimum separation distance between principal buildings.
5.
A property zoned R-1E District shall connect to
the public sanitary sewer system and/or the public water system when
such system(s) are available, as may otherwise be proscribed and required
by the Municipal Code. A property zoned R-1E District, its primary
zoning purpose being to support more than one dwelling unit, shall
be considered a reason in favor of any proposed extension of pubic
sanitary sewer or water abutting such property in the consideration
thereof, and as such, deemed a property owner vote in favor of such
extension upon any property owner survey which may be conducted or
considered by the Common Council upon such proposed extension.
6.
Multiple dwelling units located on a single lot
shall be positioned to be harmonious to one another for the orderly
development of the parcel and compatible with adjacent land uses.
All structures shall consist of high quality building materials and
architectural design.
7.
Be used in conjunction with and adjacent to other
single-family residence districts, especially for development of infill
lots and/or lots containing a significant amount of protected natural
resource features. May also be used as a transitional district to
other higher intensity multi-family residential use districts as greater
setbacks are required.
B.
District
Standards. The R-1E District is further intended to have the development
standards as set forth in Table 15-3.0201E.
a.
All dwelling structures shall meet the following
minimum setbacks (The total height of the structure is measured from
grade to the highest point of the structure. In instances where there
is a slope in grade height is measured from the lowest point of the
slope):
i.
Minimum Front Yard: 40 feet or no closer than a
distance equal to its height, whichever is greater.
ii.
Minimum Corner Side Yard: 30 feet or no closer
than a distance equal to its height, whichever is greater.
iii.
Minimum Side Yard: 20 feet or no closer than a
distance equal to its height, whichever is greater.
iv.
Minimum rear yard: 20 feet or no closer than a
distance equal to its height, whichever is greater.
C.
D.
Special Uses. See §§ 15-3.0602, 15-3.0700
and 15-3.0702 of this Ordinance in addition to the uses listed below.
E.
Accessory
Uses and Standards. Accessory uses and structures shall be regulated
by Division 15-3.0800, except as otherwise stated below:
a.
Permitted accessory uses:
ii.
Lighted recreational courts. Light poles utilized
for recreational lighting shall not exceed 20 feet in height from
grade and shall be shut off between 10:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. All other
standards of Division 15-5.0400 shall be met.
b.
Accessory structures shall not exceed 5,000 square
feet.
c.
Accessory structures shall not exceed 50 feet in
height.
d.
Accessory structures shall meet the following setbacks
(The total height of the structure is measured from grade to the highest
point of the structure. In instances where there is a slope in grade
height is measured from the lowest point of the slope):
i.
Accessory structures not exceeding 150 square feet
and 15 feet in height shall be setback at least five feet from the
side or rear lot lines.
ii.
Accessory structures exceeding 150 square feet
or 15 feet in height shall be located no closer than a distance equal
to its height to the side or rear lot lines; however, in no case shall
an accessory structure over 150 square feet be closer to 10 feet to
a side or rear lot line.
e.
Location. No part of an accessory structure shall
be located in a front yard, corner side yard, or any rear yard abutting
a street on a corner lot. For a rear yard abutting a street on a corner
lot, the setback shall be the required corner side setback of the
zoning district. Where the front of a principal structure is not on
a corner lot, an accessory use or structure may be placed in the yard
facing the arterial street provided that all zoning district front
and side yard setbacks from the arterial street lot line are met.
f.
Fences shall be allowed to locate property lines
in all yards. Fences shall not exceed seven feet in height and shall
meet all other requirements of § 15-3.0802E. of the UDO.

Residence District as set forth in the City of Franklin Comprehensive
Master Plan.
2.
Foster a SUBURBAN/ESTATE community character.
3.
Be served by public sanitary sewer and water supply
facilities, (1) except those lots which were lot(s) of record existing
prior to the effective date of the Unified Development Ordinance on
August 1, 1998, and (2) those lot(s) of record created by minor division,
which lot(s) of record created by minor division are served by public
sanitary sewer and for which lot(s) the Common Council on or after
August 1, 1998, has denied the extension of public water.
The options in this district promote open space and natural
resource base protection.

District Intent. The VR District is intended to:
1.
Be used exclusively in the Village of St. Martins
Planning District as delineated in the City of Franklin Comprehensive
Master Plan.
2.
Prevent the Village of St. Martins area from becoming
nonconforming as it would if placed under a different more SUBURBAN-oriented
zoning district classification.
3.
Provide for the minor infilling of vacant or redevelopment
areas within the unincorporated Village of St. Martins consistent
with the requirements of this zoning district and the established
community character of the Village of St. Martins.
4.
Permit future residential development and redevelopment
of the Village of St. Martins area consistent with earlier approved
Subdivisions and Certified Survey Maps.
5.
Be served by public sanitary sewer and water supply
facilities, (1) except those lots which were lot(s) of record existing
prior to the effective date of the Unified Development Ordinance on
August 1, 1998, and (2) those lot(s) of record created by minor division,
which lot(s) of record created by minor division are served by public
sanitary sewer and for which lot(s) the Common Council on or after
August 1, 1998, has denied the extension of public water.
The VR Village Residence District, as used here, is not intended
to be confused with incorporated "villages" as defined by the Wisconsin
State Statutes.
