The location and boundaries of the zoning districts are established as shown on the map entitled "Official Zoning Map, City of Edgerton, Wisconsin," dated as amended, which accompanies and is made part of this chapter. All notations and references shown on the Zoning Map are as much a part of this chapter as though specifically described herein.
The following rules shall apply with respect to the boundaries of the zoning districts as shown on the Zoning Maps.
A. 
Where zoning district boundary lines are indicated as following a street, alley or extension thereof, such boundary lines shall be construed to be the center line of said street, alley or extension thereof unless clearly shown to the contrary.
B. 
Where a boundary line coincides approximately but not exactly with a lot line which existed on the effective date of incorporation of such boundary line into the Zoning Map, the boundary line shall be construed to be the lot line at that location.
C. 
For unsubdivided property, the location of the district boundary lines shown on the district map shall be determined by the use of the scale shown on such map.
D. 
Where any uncertainty exists as to the exact location of zoning district boundary lines, the Zoning Board of Appeals, upon written application, shall determine the location of such boundary lines.
A. 
Purpose and intent.
(1) 
This district is intended to permit development that has a moderate density, community character. Density and intensity standards for this district are designed to ensure that the R-1 District shall serve as a designation which preserves and protects the residential community character of its area. Residential development with a maximum gross density (MGD) of four dwelling units per gross acre is available within this district.
(2) 
Rationale. This district is used to provide for the permanent protection of a moderate density residential area for those who want to live in a suburban residential environment and who retain enough land with their residence, or in their development, to ensure that the community character is maintained as long as the R-1 District designation is retained, regardless of how much development occurs within that area.

A. 
Description and purpose.
(1) 
This district is intended to permit development that has a higher density community character. The land use standards for this district permit single-family detached, twin house/duplex, two flats, townhouses, and multiplexes permitted by right and related institutional land uses. Density and intensity standards for this district are designed to ensure that the R-3 District shall serve as a designation which preserves and protects the community character of its area. A variety of residential development options are available in this district, with a maximum gross density (MGD) of 14 dwelling units per gross acre.
(2) 
Rationale. This district is used to provide for the permanent protection of an area for those who want to live in a higher density residential environment and who retain enough land with their residence, or in their development, to ensure that the urban community character is maintained as long as the R-3 District designation is retained, regardless of how much development occurs within that area. As such, it is intended to provide the principal location for mixed residential development.

A. 
Description and purpose.
(1) 
This district is intended to permit development that has a higher density community character. The land use standards for this district permit single-family detached, twin house/duplex, two flats, townhouses, multiplexes, and apartments permitted by right and related institutional land uses. Density and intensity standards for this district are designed to ensure that the R-4 District shall serve as a designation which preserves and protects the community character of its area. A variety of residential development options are available in this district, with a maximum gross density (MGD) of 20 dwelling units per gross acre.
(2) 
Rationale. This district is used to provide for the permanent protection of an area for those who want to live in a higher density residential environment and who retain enough land with their residence, or in their development, to ensure that the urban community character is maintained as long as the R-4 District designation is retained, regardless of how much development occurs within that area. As such, it is intended to provide the principal location for mixed residential development.

A. 
Description and purpose:
(1) 
This district is intended to permit small-scale neighborhood commercial development which is compatible with the desired overall neighborhood community character of the area in general and with adjacent residential development in particular. The desired neighborhood community character of the development is attained through landscape surface area ratio (LSR) requirements, and by restricting the maximum building size (MBS) of all buildings within each instance of this district to 5,000 square feet. Significant areas of landscaping are required in this district to ensure that this effect is achieved. In order to ensure a minimum of disruption to residential development, no development within this district shall take direct access to a local residential street. If a parcel is zoned B-1 as of the date of adoption of this chapter and the parcel or improvements do not comply with one or more of the Local Business District requirements listed below, the parcel or improvements is not nonconforming. If, however, any changes are made to the property after the adoption of the ordinance, the changes themselves must comply with the district requirements. If the property is redeveloped and the reconstruction or development is equal to or greater than 50% of the value of the equalized value of the property, all of the property improvements must comply with the Local Business District requirements.
(2) 
Rationale. This district is used to provide both convenience-oriented goods and services and for the permanent protection of adjacent residential areas by permitting only a limited range of commercial activities. Together, these requirements ensure that the desired character is maintained as long as the B-1 District designation is retained, regardless of how much development occurs within that area.
(3) 
Local business district requirements.
(a) 
Maximum zoning district: two acres of contiguous B-1 properties excluding rights-of-way.
(b) 
Maximum building size: 5,000 square feet. Buildings existing as of the adoption of this chapter which do not comply with this regulation cannot be enlarged to increase the square footage.
(c) 
No new parking in required setbacks for principal buildings.
(d) 
Residential architectural and landscaping requirements include: foundation planting, pitched roof, 25% window covering (see Article VI, Signage Regulations), natural materials (brick, wood, stone).
(e) 
Minimum landscape surface ratio: 25%. Improved parcels existing as of the adoption of this chapter which do not comply with this regulation cannot be changed if the change will further reduce the landscape surface ratio.
(f) 
Operating hours. No earlier than 6:00 a.m. nor later than 11:00 p.m.
(g) 
Shall provide a neighborhood-oriented amenity, per Plan Commission direction (i.e., outdoor neighborhood gathering area, public art, etc.).

A. 
Description and purpose:
(1) 
This district is intended to permit both large- and small-scale, pedestrian-oriented downtown commercial development at an intensity which provides significant incentives for infill development, redevelopment, and the continued economic viability of existing development. A wide range of office, retail, service, and lodging land uses are permitted within this district. Institutional residential and multifamily residential development is also permitted in this district. In order to ensure a minimum amount of disruption to neighboring residential development, no development within this district shall take direct access to a local residential street or a residential collector street. No requirements for on-site landscaping or parking are required in this district, except that land uses permitted as conditional uses shall require a parking waiver from the Plan Commission following a request from the applicant. This district is strictly limited to the central City locations. If a parcel is zoned B-2 as of the date of adoption of this chapter and the parcel or improvements do not comply with one or more of the Central Business District requirements listed below, the parcel or improvement is not nonconforming. If however, any changes are made to the property after the adoption of the ordinance, the changes themselves must comply with the district requirements. If the property is redeveloped and the reconstruction or development is equal to or greater than 50% of the value of the equalized value of the property, all of the property improvements must comply with the Central Business District requirements.
(2) 
Rationale. This district is intended to provide an alternative designation (primarily infill development) for commercial activity to the Local Business (B-1), the Large-Scale Commercial (B-3), and Suburban Commercial (B-4) Districts. This district is designed to assist in maintaining the long-term viability of the central City.
(3) 
Central Business District architectural requirements:
(a) 
General. Nonresidential and residential construction, including new structures, building additions, building alterations, and restoration or rehabilitation shall correspond to the downtown design guidelines as determined by the Plan Commission and as evidenced by certain existing structures within the downtown and by the following requirements for building setback; height; building mass; horizontal rhythms (created by the placement and design of facade openings and related elements such as piers, columns); vertical rhythms (created by the placement and design of facade details such as sills, transoms, cornices and sign bands); roof forms; exterior materials; exterior surface features and appurtenances; exterior colors; exterior signage; on-site landscaping; exterior lighting; parking and loading area design; and the use of screening. Existing and new structures with less than a ten-foot front yard setback must have a storefront or office (nonresidential) component on the first floor in the front of the building. All new residential construction on Fulton Street shall be required to have a storefront component. The first floor of all new construction which does not have a storefront shall provide pedestrian amenities such as sitting areas or shall have other features to make the building interesting for pedestrian traffic.
[Amended 2-15-2021 by Ord. No. 21-02]
(b) 
Building setback. Throughout the district, the setback of buildings from street yard and side yard property lines shall be compatible with existing buildings in the immediate area which conform to the general design theme of the downtown.
(c) 
Building height. Throughout the district, the height of buildings shall be compatible with existing buildings in the immediate area which conform to the general design theme of the downtown. In no instance shall buildings be more than one story taller or shorter than the height of a building of similar use on one of the immediately adjoining properties, or on the nearest developed parcel along the same street frontage, whichever applies.
(d) 
Building mass. Throughout the district, the mass of buildings shall be compatible with existing buildings in the immediate area which conform to the general design theme of the downtown. The characteristic proportion (relationship between facade height and width) of the general design theme shall be maintained. Building mass for large structures shall be disguised through the use of facade articulations, or through the use of exterior treatments which give the impression of directly adjoining individual buildings.
(e) 
Horizontal rhythms. Throughout the district, the horizontal pattern of exterior building elements formed by patterns of building openings for windows and doors, and related elements such as piers and columns shall be spaced at regular intervals across all visible facades of the building, and shall be compatible with those of existing buildings in the immediate area which conform to the general design theme of the downtown.
(f) 
Vertical rhythms. Throughout the district, the floor heights on main facades shall appear visually in proportion to those of adjoining buildings. The rhythm of the ground floor shall harmonize with the rhythm of upper floors. The vertical pattern of exterior building elements formed by patterns of building openings for windows and doors, and related elements such as sills, headers, transoms, cornices and sign bands shall be compatible in design and elevation with those of existing buildings in the immediate area which conform to the general design theme of the downtown.
(g) 
Roof forms. Throughout the district, flat or gently sloping roofs which are not visible from the street shall be used. Mansards or other exotic roof shapes not characteristic of the general design theme of the downtown, as determined by the Plan Commission shall not be used. Throughout the district, roof shapes not characteristic of the general design theme of the downtown, shall not be used.
(h) 
Signage. Throughout the district, signage should be designed to be consistent with architectural design, theme, and character of the building to which it is affixed and/or the adjacent buildings within the district. Special consideration should be given to the design of projecting and awning signage. Recommendations for signage should be sought from the Historic Preservation Commission, when available.

A. 
Description and purpose:
(1) 
This district is intended to permit both large- and small-scale pedestrian- and auto-oriented commercial development at intensities which provide significant incentives for infill development and the continued economic viability of existing development. To accomplish this effect, minimum required landscape surface ratios (LSRs) are substantially lower than those required in the Suburban Commercial (B-4) District. A wide range of office, retail, and lodging land uses are permitted within this district. These permitted uses include small tenant group developments and in-vehicle sales and service uses. In order to ensure a minimum of disruption to residential development, no development within this district shall take direct access to a local residential street or a residential collector street.
(2) 
Rationale. The Large-Scale Commercial District is designed to ensure the long-term economic health of strip commercial development areas existing as of the effective date of this chapter and is designed to provide significant incentives for infill development in this area by limiting large-scale regional business uses which can afford the relatively higher development costs and rents associated with development in Suburban Commercial (B-4) District.

A. 
Description and purpose.
(1) 
This district is intended to permit large- and small-scale commercial development which is compatible with the desired overall suburban community character of the area in general. This is accomplished with relatively low maximum floor area ratios (FARs). Significant areas of landscaping are required in this district to ensure that this effect is achieved. A wide range of office, retail, and lodging land uses are permitted within this district. In order to ensure a minimum of disruption to residential development, no development within this district shall take direct access to a local residential street or a residential collector street.
(2) 
Rationale. This district is intended to provide the principal zoning district for commercial development which occurs after the adoption of this chapter. The standards of this district are designed to provide a clear distinction from the Large-Scale Commercial (B-3) and Central Business (B-2) Districts in terms of permitted intensity of development, treatment of outdoor sales, and required green space areas. The desired suburban community character of the development is attained through the floor area ratio (FAR) and landscape surface area ratio (LSR) requirements. Together, these requirements ensure that the desired suburban community character is maintained as long as the Suburban Commercial (B-4) District designation is retained, regardless of how much development occurs within that area.

A. 
Description and purpose.
(1) 
This district is intended to permit both large- and small-scale industrial, office, and service development at an intensity that is consistent with the overall desired character of the community. Personal and professional service uses in this district should not be pedestrian-oriented, but rather, should be associated with the office and industrial development in the district. Beyond a relatively high minimum landscape surface ratio (LSR), the primary distinguishing feature of this district is that it is geared to indoor industrial activities which are not typically associated with high levels of noise, soot, odors and other potential nuisances for adjoining properties. In order to ensure a minimum of disruption to residential development, no development within this district shall take direct access to a local residential street or a residential collector street.
(2) 
Rationale. This district is intended to provide a location for light industrial land uses such as assembly operations, storage and warehousing facilities, offices, research and development facilities, and light manufacturing which are protected from potential nuisances associated with certain development permitted within the General or Heavy Industrial Districts. In addition, land uses shall comply with the minimum performance standards, and the parking and loading requirements presented in this chapter.

A. 
Description and purpose.
(1) 
This district is designed to permit a very wide variety of industrial uses which may occur both indoors and outdoors, including certain land uses which are permitted in no other zoning district because of their potential to create nuisances for adjoining properties. In order to ensure a minimum of disruption to residential development, no development within this district shall take direct access to a local residential street or a residential collector street.
(2) 
Rationale. This district is intended to provide a location for both light and heavy industrial uses in a zoning district in which the potential for nuisance complaints from nearby properties is minimized. It must be emphasized that this is not a district where virtually any land use is permitted, as all uses shall comply with the minimum performance standards presented in Article V. In addition, certain land uses such as extraction, junkyards and salvage operations, and freight terminals are permitted within this district only upon the granting of a conditional use permit.

A. 
Description and purpose.
(1) 
This district is intended to permit both large- and small-scale commercial development at an intensity that provides significant incentives for infill development, redevelopment, and the continued economic viability of existing development. It is the intent of this district to permit a broad mix of land uses to encourage this infill development. Therefore, office and retail land uses are permitted by right in this district. In addition, a range of storage, wholesaling, and light industrial land uses, which occur both indoors and outdoors, are permitted as conditional uses in this zoning district. Further, residential land uses are permitted as conditional uses to allow for high density apartment uses and institutional uses. However, in order to ensure a minimum of disruption to neighboring residential development, no development within this district shall take direct access to a local residential street or a residential collector street. In order to accommodate existing and future uses, minimal requirements for on site landscaping and parking are required in this district, and where appropriate a parking waiver from the Plan Commission may be granted for nonresidential land uses following the issuance of a conditional use. The boundary of this district is strictly limited to the existing historic central City tobacco warehouse/rail corridor location.
(2) 
Rationale. This district is intended to provide an alternative, primarily infill development, designation for commercial activity to the Local Business (B-1), Central Business (B-2), Community Business (B-3), and Regional Business (B-4) Districts and is designed to assist in maintaining the long-term viability of the historic central City.

A. 
Description and purpose.
(1) 
This district is intended to permit high quality office and institutional land uses at an intensity compatible with the character of older portions of the City predominantly developed with large homes which are desirable to maintain, where traffic volumes and adjacent land uses dictate the transition of these areas to certain nonresidential land uses. Significant areas of landscaping are required in this district to ensure that this effect is achieved. In certain instances multifamily housing uses may be allowed. In order to ensure a minimum of disruption to adjacent residential development, no nonresidential development within this district shall take direct access to a local residential street or a residential collector street.
(2) 
Rationale. This district is used to provide for the permanent protection of an area which preserves the original estate residential appearance, yet permits office and institutional land uses, and which ensures that the estate character is maintained as long as the Office District (O-1) designation is retained regardless of how much development occurs within that area..

A. 
Description and purpose:
(1) 
This district is intended to permit development that is solely of a rural community character. The land use standards for this district permit very low-density single-family residential development at a density of one dwelling unit for every 35 gross acres, as well as a variety of agricultural and agricultural support land uses. Density and intensity standards for this district are designed to ensure that development that requires even a minimum of urban services does not occur until such services are available. As such, the Rural Holding (A-1) District shall either serve as a designation which preserves and protects agricultural activities, or as a "holding zone" which provides for an interim land use (agriculture) that will easily permit further development (with rezoning to another district) at the appropriate time.
(2) 
Rationale. This district is used to provide for the protection of agricultural activities, and a very low-density residential area for those who want to live in a rural environment and who retain enough land with their residence to ensure that the rural environment is maintained as long as the Rural Holding (A-1) District designation is retained. In this manner, even if all property were developed in a given area with the Rural Holding (A-1) District designation, the rural community character of that area would still be maintained.

A. 
Description and purpose.
(1) 
The purpose of this section is to set forth the requirements for the mandatory protection of natural resources and permanently protected green space areas within the jurisdiction of this chapter (see § 450-5). The provisions of this article interact closely with the provisions of §§ 450-23, 450-29, 450-98. 450-99, 450-100 and 450-101. In part, the provisions of this article are designed to ensure the implementation of the City of Edgerton Comprehensive Master Plan and State of Wisconsin Statutes §§ 62.231 and 87.30.
(2) 
These sections contain the standards that govern the protection, disturbance, and mitigation of disruption of all natural resource and other permanently protected green space areas. The provisions of these sections are intended to supplement those of the City of Edgerton, Rock County, Dane County, the State of Wisconsin, and the Federal Government of the United States that pertain to natural resource protection. Prior to using the provisions of this article to determine the permitted disruption of such areas, the requirements provided below should be reviewed. These sections recognize the important and diverse benefits that natural resource features provide in terms of protecting the health, safety, and general welfare of the community. Each of the following sections is oriented to each natural resource type, and is designed to include the following information:
(a) 
A definition of the natural resource.
(b) 
The specific purposes of the protective regulations governing each natural resource type.
(c) 
The required method of identifying and determining the boundaries of the natural resource area.
(d) 
Mandatory protection requirement.
See Chapter 405, Floodplain Regulation, and Chapter 435, Shoreland-Wetland Zoning.
A. 
Definition. As used in this section, the following terms shall have the meanings indicated:
WOODLANDS
Areas of trees whose combined canopies cover a minimum of 80% of an area of one acre or more, as shown on air photos for the City of Edgerton and its environs.
B. 
Purpose of woodland protection requirements. Woodlands provide a wide variety of environmental functions. These include atmospheric benefits such as removing airborne pollutants, carbon dioxide uptake, oxygen production, and evapotranspiration returns. Water quality benefits include substantial nutrient uptake rates (particularly for nitrogen and phosphorus) and surface runoff reduction in terms of both volumes and velocities. Woodlands provide unique wildlife habitats and food sources. Woodlands are excellent soil stabilizers, greatly reducing runoff-related soil erosion. Woodlands also serve to reduce wind velocities, which further reduces soil erosion. Finally, under proper management techniques, woodlands serve as regenerative fuel sources.
C. 
Determination of woodland boundaries. General woodland boundaries are depicted on the Official Zoning Map. Upon the proposal of development activity on any property that contains a woodland depicted on the Official Zoning Map, the petitioner shall prepare a detailed site analysis per the requirements of § 450-213. This analysis shall depict the location of all woodland areas on the subject property as related to the provisions of Subsection A above.
D. 
Mandatory woodland protection requirements. Woodlands shall remain in an undisturbed state except for the land uses permitted in § 450-33J and areas subject to the following mitigation requirements. Selective cutting operations are permitted by right in all woodland areas [per the requirements of § 450-33B(2)]. Clear-cutting is permitted as a conditional use in all woodland areas [per the requirements of § 450-33B(3)].
A. 
Definition. As used in this section, the following terms shall have the meanings indicated:
STEEP SLOPES
Are defined as follows:
(1) 
Areas that are at least one acre in size and contain a gradient of 12% or greater over a distance of more than 150 feet down the face of the slope. (See graphic diagram below.)
(2) 
Areas that are at least one acre in size and contain a gradient of 12% or greater over a distance of less than 150 feet down the face of the slope if the slope is within 25 feet of the high-water mark of any adjacent perennial stream pond or wetland.
450 Slope.tif
B. 
Purpose of steep slope protection requirements. Steep slopes are particularly susceptible to damage resulting from site disruption, primarily related to soil erosion. Such damage is likely to spread to areas that were not originally disturbed. Such erosion reduces the productivity of the soil, results in exacerbated erosion downhill, and results in increased sedimentation in drainageways, wetlands, streams, ponds and lakes. Beyond adversely affecting the environmental functions of these resources areas, such sedimentation also increases flood hazards by reducing the floodwater storage capacity of hydrological system components, thus elevating the flood level of the drainage system in effected areas. Beyond these threats to the public safety, disruption of steep slopes also increases the likelihood of slippage and slumping, unstable soil movements, which may threaten adjacent properties, buildings, and public facilities such as roads and utilities.
C. 
Determination of steep slope boundaries. General steep slope boundaries are depicted on the Official Zoning Map. Upon the proposal of development activity on any property that contains a steep slope depicted on the Official Zoning Map, the petitioner shall prepare a detailed site analysis per the requirements of § 450-23. This analysis shall depict the location of all steep slope areas on the subject property as related to the provisions of Subsection A, above.
D. 
Mandatory steep slope protection requirements. Steep slopes shall remain in an undisturbed state except for the land uses permitted per the requirements of § 450-33J and as provided below:
(1)

(e) 
Shall comply with § 450-16, standards and procedures applicable to all conditional uses.
A. 
Purpose. The City of Edgerton recognizes that consequences of certain land use activities, whether intentional or accidental, can seriously impair groundwater quality. The purpose of the Municipal Well Recharge Area Overlay District (MW) is to protect municipal groundwater resources from certain land use activities by imposing appropriate restrictions upon lands located within the approximate groundwater recharge area of the City's municipal wells, either existing or planned. The restrictions imposed in this section are in addition to those of the underlying zoning district or any other provisions of this chapter. This chapter is established per § NR 811.16, Wis. Adm. Code.
B. 
Overlay Zones. The Municipal Well Recharge Area Overlay District is determined by modeling contained in the report entitled "City of Edgerton Well Head Protection Plan" for new wells and is the contaminant source inventory reporting area established by the WDNR for existing wells. These areas are indicated by Zone MW on the Official Zoning Map. Zone MW is identified as the primary source of water for the municipal well aquifer and as the most likely to transmit groundwater contaminants to the municipal wells.
C. 
Land use regulations. The following land use regulations are in addition to the land use regulations established for the underlying zoning district.
D. 
Prohibited uses. The following uses have a high potential to contaminate groundwater, or have already caused groundwater contamination, in Wisconsin and elsewhere. Therefore, the following principal or accessory uses are prohibited within the MW District unless Plan Commission determines the use has adequate separation distance.

A. 
Purpose and intent. Planned Developments are intended to provide more incentives for infill development and redevelopment in areas of the community which are experiencing a lack of significant reinvestment. Furthermore, Planned Developments are designed to forward both the aesthetic and economic development objectives of the City by controlling the site design and the appearance, density or intensity of development in terms of more flexible requirements for land uses, density, intensity, bulk, landscaping, and parking requirements. In exchange for such flexibility, the Planned Development shall provide a much higher level of site design, architectural control and other aspects of aesthetic and functional excellence than normally required for other developments.
B. 
Applicable standards. Development standards are flexible within this zoning district. Refer to § 450-24 for the range of development standards.
