Factor considered in issuing permit. Any buildings, structures, or other improvements on Downtown Commercial District lands shall be permitted only when authorized and approved by the Plan Commission and the Common Council.

The overall need for the proposed change or improvement in the Downtown Commercial District, along with the demand for related services, and the possible nuisance or hazardous, harmful, noxious, or offensive effects resulting from noise, dust, smoke, odor, increased traffic or other factors will also be considered in deciding whether to permit the proposed structure, building or improvement.

Upon approval of the proposal by both the Plan Commission and the Common Council, the Downtown Commercial Alteration permit will be issued. This is applicable only to the proposal as presented to the Plan Commission and the Common Council; any subsequent alteration of or deviation from the approved plans and specifications must be reviewed by the Plan Commission and Common Council prior to implementation.

Park alteration permit requirements.
(1) 
Permit required. All buildings, structures, and other improvements constructed or made within the Park and Recreation District shall conform in construction materials and architectural style so as to be aesthetically and architecturally consistent with existing structures in the Park and Recreation District, as determined by the Plan Commission and the Common Council. A park alteration permit shall be requested before the erection, construction, reconstruction, enlargement or moving of any structure, building, or improvement and will be issued when the proposal is approved by the Plan Commission and Common Council. Temporary permits for any temporary buildings and uses incidental to and necessary for the erection, alteration, enlargement, movement or equipment of permitted buildings and structures must also be obtained and may be issued for a term of up to one year. (Portable toilets may be placed for up to 120 days without a temporary permit.)
(2) 
Factor considered in issuing permit. Any buildings, structures, or other improvements on Park and Recreation District lands shall be permitted only when authorized and approved by the Plan Commission and the Common Council. In determining the acceptability of proposed structures, buildings, or improvements, the Plan Commission and Common Council shall take into consideration the following factors, as well as any others they deem appropriate: the effect of the proposed change or addition on the health, safety, general welfare, and prosperity of the City and the immediate area in which such change or improvement would occur, including such considerations as the effect on the established quality and character of the area, physical attractiveness and aesthetic and architectural consistency with the area, existing topography, drainage features, erosion potential, vegetative cover, pollution control, floodways and floodplains, and circulation of traffic. The overall need for the proposed change or improvement in the Park and Recreation District, along with the demand for related services, and the possible nuisance or hazardous, harmful, noxious, or offensive effects resulting from noise, dust, smoke, odor, increased traffic or other factors will also be considered in deciding whether to permit the proposed structure, building or improvement.
(3) 
Limit to permitting considerations. Approval of a proposal shall otherwise be limited to reasonable compliance with design, location, and operational requirements.
(4) 
Permitting process. Initially, any proposed building, structure, or other improvement shall be submitted to the Common Council with a request for review. The permit application must include plans and specifications which detail all dimensions and materials, an as-built drawing prepared to scale, and a map prepared to scale showing the proposed location of the building, structure, or improvement in relation to all other structures and improvements in the Park District. Common Council shall forward the proposal to the Plan Commission for review and recommendation. If the proposal is approved by the Plan Commission, it will be forwarded to the Common Council for final consideration. Upon approval of the proposal by both the Plan Commission and the Common Council, the park alteration permit will be issued. This park alteration permit is applicable only to the proposal as presented to the Plan Commission and the Common Council; any subsequent alteration of or deviation from the approved plans and specifications must be reviewed and approved by the Plan Commission and Common Council prior to implementation.
(5) 
Building permit. The permit requirements of this Subsection C are in addition to all other City of Arcadia and State of Wisconsin ordinances, regulations and statutes applying to the construction and placement of buildings and other improvements within the City. Nothing herein shall eliminate or limit the requirement that a City building permit be issued, and the appropriate fee paid, prior to commencement of construction.
(6) 
Construction without permit. Buildings, structures or other improvements erected, constructed, improved or moved without the required park alteration permit and building permit are in violation of this chapter. Each such violation shall be subject to the enforcement remedies and penalties specified in § 425-24 of this chapter.
