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 without 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 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.
A. 
The approval of conditional use may be made subject to conditions if the Plan Commission finds them to be necessary to fulfill the purpose and intent of this chapter or the State Water Resource Act of 1965 or to meet the provisions of the Wisconsin floodplain and shoreland management programs. Conditions may include, but are not limited to, the following: landscaping, architectural design, type of construction, sureties, water supply and waste disposal systems, and operation limitations.
B. 
Variances shall be granted only as provided by, and in accordance with, Article VI of this chapter.
