CHAPTER 17

08 - ZONING DISTRICTS

17.08.010 - Districts.

For the purpose of this title, the city of Juneau is divided into zoning districts, as named and described in the following sections.

(Prior code § 10-4-32)

17.08.020 - Boundaries.

A.

The boundaries of these districts are established as shown on the map entitled, "Zoning Map—City of Juneau, Wisconsin," dated June, 1980, which is part of this title, incorporated by reference.

B.

Where uncertainty exists with respect to the boundaries of the various districts as shown on the zoning map, the following rules shall apply:

1.

Boundaries shown as approximately following city limits, U.S. Public Land Survey lines, lot or property lines, centerlines of streets, highways, alleys, easements, and railroad right-of-ways, and such lines extended shall be construed to follow such lines unless otherwise noted on the zoning map.

2.

District boundaries may be moved to include an entire parcel in the least restrictive district provided that, at the time of enactment of this title, the parcel was a single ownership parcel and that the district boundaries shall not be moved more than seventy-five (75) feet.

3.

Vacation of public streets and alleys shall cause the area vacated to be automatically placed in the same district as the land to which the vacated area reverts.

4.

Areas annexed to or consolidated with the city after the effective date of this title shall be placed in the A-1 agricultural district, unless the annexation ordinance temporarily places the land in another district. Within one year, the city plan commission shall evaluate and recommend a permanent classification to the city council.

(Prior code § 10-4-33)

17.08.030 - Zoning map.

The city clerk shall maintain an official zoning map which shall bear the certification of the mayor and city clerk. The city clerk shall maintain a notation on the map, or on a separate document attached to the map, of every zoning change enacted by the common council which shall identify the parcel or parcels affected by parcel number or street address. The city shall, from time to time, prepare an updated map showing all changes enacted by the council after the last map was drawn. Failure to revise the official zoning map shall not affect the validity of any enacted zoning change that was duly noted on the official zoning map or on an attachment to the official zoning map.

17.08.890 - Planned development district procedures.

A.

Purpose.

1.

The purpose of this section is to provide regulations which govern the procedure and requirements for the review and approval, or denial, of proposed planned developments, and to provide for the possible relaxation of certain development standards pertaining to the underlying standard zoning district.

2.

Planned developments are intended to provide more incentives for 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.

3.

Planned developments have the potential to create undesirable impacts on nearby properties if allowed to develop simply under the general requirements of this title. In addition to such potential, planned developments also have the potential to create undesirable impacts on nearby properties which potentially cannot be determined except with a binding site plan, landscape plan and architectural plan, and on a case by case basis. In order to prevent this from occurring, all planned developments are required to meet certain procedural requirements applicable only to planned developments, in addition to the general requirements of the zoning ordinance. A public hearing process is required to review a request for a planned development. This process shall essentially combine the process for a zoning map amendment with that required for a conditional use, with several additional requirements.

B.

Provision of Flexible Development Standards for Planned Developments.

1.

Permitted Location. Planned developments shall be permitted with the approval of a planned development overlay zoning district, specific to the approved planned development per the procedures of subsections (G) and (H), below.

2.

Flexible Development Standards. The following exemptions to the development standards of the underlying zoning district may be provided with the approval of a planned development:

a.

Land Use Requirements. All land uses listed as "residential," "institutional," or "commercial" may be permitted within a planned development.

b.

Density and Intensity Requirements. All requirements listed for residential density (number of dwelling units per acre) and nonresidential intensity (percentage of lot area compared to total floor area and impervious surface area) may be waived or modified within a planned development.

c.

Bulk Requirements. All residential and nonresidential bulk requirements (building setback and height) may be waived or modified within a planned development.

d.

Landscaping Requirements. All landscaping requirements may be waived or modified within a planned development.

e.

Parking and Loading Requirements. All requirements for off-street parking, traffic circulation, and off-street loading may be waived or modified within a planned development.

3.

Requirements to Depict All Aspects of Development. Only development which is explicitly depicted on the required site plan required for a zoning permit issued under Section 17.04.190 approved by the city council as part of the approved planned development, shall be permitted, even if such development (including all aspects of land use, density and intensity, bulk, landscaping, and parking and loading), is otherwise listed as permitted. Requested exemptions from these standards shall be made explicit by the applicant in the application, and shall be recommended by the plan commission and approved explicitly by the city council. If not so requested and approved, such exemptions shaft not be permitted.

C.

Initiation of Request for Approval of a Planned Development. Proceedings for approval of a planned development shall be initiated by:

1.

An application of the owner(s) of the subject property; or

2.

A recommendation of the plan commission and action by the city council, relative to city-owned property.

D.

Application Requirements. All applications for proposed planned developments, regardless of the party of their initiation per subsection (C) above, shall be certified as complete by the zoning administrator a minimum of twenty (20) working days prior to the initiation of this procedure. The zoning administrator shall forward copies of the complete application to the office of the city clerk. The application shall apply to each of the process steps in subsections (F) through (H) below. With the plan commission's approval (and generally for simple PDs), the applicant may combine PD process Steps 1 and 2, or Steps 1, 2 and 3.

E.

PD Process Step 1: Pre-Application Conference.

1.

The applicant shall contact the zoning administrator to place an informal discussion item for the PD on the plan commission agenda.

2.

No details beyond the name of the applicant, the location of the subject property, a listing of potential land uses, and the identification of the discussion item as a PD is required to be given in the agenda.

3.

At the plan commission meeting, the applicant shall engage in an informal discussion with the plan commission regarding the potential PD. Appropriate topics for discussion may include the location of the PD, general project themes and images, the general mix of types and/or land uses being considered, approximate residential densities and nonresidential intensities, the general treatment of natural features, the general relationship to nearby properties and public streets, and relationship to the master plan.

4.

Points of discussion and conclusions reached in this stage of the process shall in no way be binding upon the applicant or the city, but should be considered as the informal, non-binding basis for proceeding to the next step.

F.

PD Process Step 2: Concept Plan.

1.

The applicant shall provide the zoning administrator with a draft PD concept plan submittal packet for a determination of completeness prior to placing the proposed PD on the plan commission agenda for concept plan review.

(Ord. 219, 1997: prior code § 10-4-101-A)

17.08.900 - General development plan documents for Watertown Memorial Hospital's 8.85 acre proposed Juneau Senior Campus.

A.

General Project Themes and Images. The proposed campus will include a continuum of senior housing options. The housing options include apartments, duplexes and fourplexes and assisted living. Two senior services that will be closely associated with the campus will include the Watertown Memorial Hospital (WMH) Home Health Service and the Juneau Medical Clinic. WMH believes that an integrated approach is critical to our success in providing exceptional senior housing in Juneau.

B.

The general mix of dwelling unit types range from uses allowed in R-1 zoning to R-3 zoning districts. The higher density uses of the twenty-four (24) unit senior apartment buildings are located on the northern portion of the property where the impact on neighbors is at a minimum and the traffic pattern on South Street, Highway 26 and the future road will make this area unappealing as a lower density area. The medium to low density twenty (20) bed assisted living facility is the next building to the south, which then enhances the transition to the low density of the fourplexes and duplexes with the background of mature trees to further buffer and soften the neighboring single-family homes.

The land uses are all compatible due to the restriction of the entire campus to older adults of ages fifty-five (55) plus.

C.

Please refer to the calculation on the general development plan drawing.

D.

The greatest natural feature existing on the site is the existing mature trees on the southeast portion of the property. The duplexes are purposely being shown on the borderline of the trees to allow us to maintain as many of these as possible. In addition, walking paths will be constructed throughout the property to enhance the residents' ability to appreciate the existing natural features.

E.

The campus is designed to have buildings of higher density near the public streets and the buildings with low density near the single-family areas. In addition, detention areas will be constructed with buffer areas to lessen the impact for all adjacent properties, as well as, the intended uses on the site.

F.

The general relationship of this project to the master plan in the city of Juneau is compatible. This 8.85 acre site developed as a whole will allow a senior campus to be created that buffers the single-family homes from the more intense uses of the future industrial park.

G.

Statement of Rationale. Under the current, more traditional zoning classifications, there is little ability to develop an 8.85-acre site as a fully-integrated, residential campus focused on the housing needs of the elderly due to the inability to trade densities and bulk area requirements between parcels that are under differing ownership. Through the proposed PD zoning, the following opportunities for community betterment will be made available:

1.

This development affords the city of Juneau a rare opportunity to engage in comprehensive planning of a relatively large (8.85 acre) parcel as a fully-integrated senior campus.

2.

Because of its planned nature, emphasis on landscaping and campus-like atmosphere (utilizing walking trails and large expanses of open area), this will be a showcase project at the gateway into the city.

3.

By being able to spread out density and open space requirements over various parcels, the developer will preserve as many mature trees and as much green space as possible.

4.

This project will expand the opportunities available to residents of the city of Juneau and surrounding areas to stay in the Juneau area as they grow older.

5.

The construction of a development of this scope will bring construction jobs to the community and will provide a positive ripple effect throughout the local economy.

H.

Statement of Rationale. The underlying zoning district of the property is the R-1 single-family residential district. We have kept this district as the underlying district so that if, for any reason, development of the property in accordance with the proposed general development plan does not occur, the property would ultimately revert back to its R-1 status (as opposed to a more dense classification). The description of zoning standards of the R-1 single-family residential district that will not be met by the proposed development, and the standards which will be more than met by the proposed development, are as follows:

1.

Land Use Exemptions. Permitted uses within the R-1 zoning district include detached single-family dwellings. In the proposed development, there will be no detached, single-family dwellings. Rather, there will be two twenty-four (24) unit apartment buildings, one twenty (20) bed assisted-living building, eight duplexes and three fourplexes.

2.

Density and Intensity Exemptions. In the R-1 zoning district, one single-family dwelling is allowed per lot, and each lot shall have a minimum of ten thousand (10,000) square feet. Thus, if the R-1 zoning district requirements were to apply to this project, there could be no more than 38.56 dwellings on the entire site. The density as proposed would provide for ninety-six (96) units on the site. This would result in one unit for every four thousand sixteen (4,016) square feet.

3.

Bulk Exemptions. The R-1 zoning district provides that the total ground area occupied by any principal building with all of its accessory buildings shall not exceed twenty (20) percent of total lot area. In the proposed development, it is currently anticipated that each of the twenty-four (24) unit apartment buildings will occupy approximately twenty-five (25) percent of the lot area for their respective lots. The twenty (20) unit assisted living building, the fourplexes and the duplexes will all be on a separate platted lot. It is currently anticipated that the total ground area occupied by these buildings shall not exceed seventeen (17) percent of the total lot area. However, the entire 8.85-acre site as a whole is currently anticipated to have buildings occupying nineteen and one-half (19.5) percent of its total area.

4.

Landscaping Exceptions. The R-1 zoning district does not provide for any landscaping requirements. We are submitting herewith, however, a general conceptual landscaping plan for the property. The landscaping plan is designed to preserve, to the maximum extent possible, all mature trees, to provide for natural drainage courses, to provide walking paths for the residents, to provide a minimal amount of impervious surfaces through the use of private roads and to provide for a limited amount of screening from South Street on the west and from the road to be constructed on the south.

5.

Parking and Loading Requirements. Section 17.12.040 of the zoning code provides for one and one-half spaces for each dwelling unit for multiple-family dwellings.

a.

Each twenty-four (24) unit building will be on a separate lot. As currently contemplated, each of the twenty-four (24) unit buildings would be served by twenty-eight (28) parking stalls; a maximum of fourteen (14) of which would be located underground, resulting in 1.17 spaces for each dwelling unit. By providing for underground parking, this would diminish the amount of impervious surface area of the development and would allow for more green space.

b.

The twenty (20) unit assisted-living building, the duplexes and the fourplexes would be on a separate lot. With regard to the twenty (20) unit assisted-living building, Section 17.12.040 of the zoning code provides for one space for every three beds plus one space for every three employees, plus one space for each staff physician. Given that it is anticipated that the assisted-living building will have, in addition to the twenty (20) beds, up to eight employees, the present requirement would be that this building be served by a minimum of 9.33 parking spaces. With regard to the duplexes and fourplexes, the current requirement is that each must have one and one-half spaces per dwelling unit. This would require forty-two (42) spaces for all of the duplexes and fourplexes. Thus, current zoning requires 51.33 spaces for the lot that contains the twenty (20) unit assisted-living building, the duplexes and fourplexes. As currently contemplated, the twenty (20) unit assisted-living building would have fifteen (15) spaces and each duplex and fourplex would have two spaces per dwelling unit (one in the driveway, and one in the garage). The current plan thus provides, for this lot, nineteen (19) spaces in excess of the number required under existing zoning.

6.

Signage. Sections 17.16.050 and 17.16.070 of the zoning code, allow, within residential areas, ground signs identifying the name and address of the resident, not exceeding two square feet in area; and signage identifying legal, nonconforming businesses. For this project, the applicant desires to have one ground sign identifying each of the two twenty-four (24) unit buildings and the twenty (20) unit assisted-living building. These identification signs would be no greater than eight by five square feet. In addition, there would be a ground sign identifying the name of the development at the entryway from the road to be constructed in the future near the southeastern corner of the project. There would also be a ground identification sign no greater than eight by five square feet located at the corner of South Street and the future public road.

7.

Height Requirements. Section 17.08.140 of the zoning code provides that, in the R-1 zoning district, principal buildings may not exceed thirty (30) in height. In the proposed development, each of the twenty-four (24) unit buildings will have a height of thirty-five (35) feet at their respective peaks.

I.

Statements of Rationale. The written justification for the proposed planned development is as follows:

Under current R-1 zoning, it would be impossible to develop a senior campus with the use and with the densities contemplated without resorting to planned development. Furthermore, it would be difficult to preserve the landscaped area located along the eastern half of the northern boundary of this property if such open space could not be credited to the project as a whole. This can happen only with the use of planned development.

Finally, the use of planned development on this site would allow for the density required, but would preserve for the benefit of the city and the neighbors the safeguard of having any undeveloped portion of the property revert to the current, R-1 single-family status should the planning development, for any reason, not be completed within three years. While a rezoning to the R-3 zoning district would cause the project to comply with many of the standards set forth in the zoning code, the city would not have the same ability to ensure that the project would be developed solely as a senior residential community that would be afforded by planned development zoning.

17.08.1000 - Shoreland-wetland overlay district.

A.

Statutory Authorization. This shoreland-wetland overlay zoning district is adopted pursuant to the authorization in sections 62.23 and 62.231 and 87.30 and 144.26, Wis. Stats.

B.

Findings of Fact and Purpose. Uncontrolled use of the shoreland-wetlands and pollution of the navigable waters of the city of Juneau would adversely affect the public health, safety, convenience, and general welfare and impair the tax base. The Legislature of Wisconsin has delegated responsibility to all municipalities to:

1.

Promote the public health, safety, convenience and general welfare;

2.

Maintain the storm and flood water storage capacity of wetlands;

3.

Prevent and control water pollution by preserving wetlands which filter or store sediments, nutrients, heavy metals or organic compounds that would otherwise drain into navigable waters;

4.

Protect fish, their spawning grounds, other aquatic life and wildlife by preserving wetlands and other aquatic habitat;

5.

Prohibit certain uses detrimental to the shoreland-wetland area; and

6.

Preserve shore cover and natural beauty by restricting the removal of natural shoreland cover and controlling shoreland-wetland excavation, filling and other earth moving activities.

C.

Compliance. The use of wetlands and the alteration of wetlands within the shoreland area of the city of Juneau shall be in full compliance with the terms of this shoreland-wetland overlay district and other applicable local, state or federal regulations. (However, see Section 17.08.1140 of this chapter, for the standards applicable to nonconforming uses.)

D.

Municipalities and State Agencies Regulated. Unless specifically exempted by law, all cities, villages, towns, and counties are required to comply with the provisions of this shoreland-wetland overlay district and obtain all necessary permits. State agencies are required to comply if section 13.48(13), Wis. Stats., applies. The construction, reconstruction, maintenance and repair of state highways and bridges by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation are exempt when section 30.2022(1), Wis. Stats. applies.

E.

Abrogation and Greater Restrictions.

1.

The provisions of this shoreland-wetland overlay district supersede all the provisions of any municipal zoning code provisions enacted under sections 61.35, 62.23 or 87.30, Wis. Stats., that relate to floodplains and shoreland-wetlands, except that where another provision in the city of Juneau Zoning Code is more restrictive than this shoreland-wetland overlay district, that provision shall continue in full force and effect to the extent of the greater restrictions, but not otherwise.

2.

This shoreland-wetland overlay district is not intended to repeal, abrogate, or impair any existing deed restrictions, covenants or easements. However, where this shoreland-wetland overlay district imposes greater restrictions, the provisions of this overlay district shall prevail.

F.

Interpretation. In their interpretation and application, the provisions of this shoreland-wetland overlay district shall be held to be minimum requirements and shall be liberally construed in favor of the municipality and shall not be deemed a limitation or repeal of any other powers granted by the Wisconsin Statutes. Where a provision of this overlay district is required by a standard in chapter NR 117, Wis. Adm. Code, and where such provision is unclear, the provision shall be interpreted in light of the chapter NR 117 standards in effect on the date of the adoption of the shoreland-wetland overlay district provisions or in effect on the date of the most recent text amendment to this shoreland-wetland overlay district section of this chapter.

G.

Severability. Should any portion of this shoreland-wetland overlay district be declared invalid or unconstitutional by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of this overlay district shall not be affected.

H.

Annexed Areas. The county shoreland zoning provisions in effect on the date of annexation remain in effect administered by the city of Juneau for all areas annexed by the city of Juneau after May 7, 1982 unless any of the changes as allowed by s.59.692(7)(a)(1-3), Stats. occur. These annexed lands are described on the city of Juneau's Official Zoning Map. The county shoreland zoning provisions are incorporated by reference for the purpose of administering this section and are on file in the office of the city of Juneau clerk.

17.08.1110 - Shoreland-wetland overlay district boundaries.

A.

The shoreland-wetland overlay zoning district includes all wetlands in the municipality that are five acres or more and are shown on the final wetland inventory map that has been adopted and made a part of this chapter and that are:

1.

Within one thousand (1,000) feet of the ordinary high-water mark of navigable lakes, ponds or flowages. Lakes, ponds or flowages in the municipality shall be presumed to be navigable if they are shown on the United States Geological Survey quadrangle maps or other zoning base maps that have been incorporated by reference and made a part of this chapter.

2.

Within three hundred (300) feet of the ordinary high-water mark of navigable rivers or streams, or to the landward side of the floodplain, whichever distance is greater. Rivers and streams shall be presumed to be navigable if they are designated as either continuous or intermittent waterways on the United States Geological Survey quadrangle maps or other zoning base maps that have been incorporated by reference and made a part of this chapter. Floodplain zoning maps adopted in Section 17.08.1100(A)(2) shall be used to determine the extent of floodplain areas.

B.

Determinations of navigability and ordinary high-water mark location shall initially be made by the zoning administrator. When questions arise, the zoning administrator shall contact the appropriate district office of the department of natural resources for a final determination of navigability or ordinary high-water mark.

C.

17.08.1180 - Shoreland-wetland overlay district definitions.

For the purpose of administering and enforcing the provisions of this shoreland-wetland overlay district, the terms or words used herein shall be interpreted as follows: Words used in the present tense include the future; words in the singular number include the plural number; words in the plural number include the singular number. The word "shall" is mandatory, not permissive. All distances unless otherwise specified, shall be measured horizontally.

Where the same or similar terms is defined differently in Section 17.04.060 of this chapter, than in this Section 17.08.1180, the definition provided in this section shall apply to all shoreland-wetland overlay district provisions (Sections 17.08.1000 through 17.08.1180), and the definition provided in Section 17.04.060 shall apply to all other sections of this chapter.

"Accessory structure or use" means a detached subordinate structure or a use that is clearly incidental to, and customarily found in connection with, the principal structure or use to which it is related and which is located on the same lot as that of the principal structure or use.

"Boathouse," as defined in section 30.121(1), Wis. Stats., means a permanent structure used for the storage of watercraft and associated materials and includes all structures that are totally enclosed, have roofs or walls, or any combination of structural parts.

"Class 2 public notice" means publication of a public hearing notice under chapter 985, Wis. Stats., in a newspaper of circulation in the affected area. Publication is required on two consecutive weeks, the last at least seven days prior to the hearing.

"Conditional use" means a use that is permitted by the shoreland-wetland overlay district provisions provided that certain conditions specified in the ordinance are met and that a permit is granted by the board of appeals or, where appropriate, the plan commission designated by the municipal governing body.

"Development" means any man-made change to improved or unimproved real estate, including, but not limited to, the construction of buildings, structures or accessory structures; the construction of additions or substantial alterations to buildings, structures or accessory structures; the placement of buildings or structures; ditching, lagooning, dredging, filling, grading, paving, excavation or drilling operations; and the deposition or extraction of earthen materials.

"Drainage system" means one or more artificial ditches, tile drains or similar devices which collect surface runoff or groundwater and convey it to a point of discharge.

"Environmental control facility" means any facility, temporary or permanent, that is reasonably expected to abate, reduce, or aid in the prevention, measurement, control, or monitoring of noise, air or water pollutants, solid waste and thermal pollution, radiation, or other pollutants, including facilities installed principally to supplement or to replace existing property or equipment not meeting or allegedly not meeting acceptable pollution control standards or that are to be supplemented or replaced by other pollution control facilities.

"Fixed houseboat" as defined in section 30.121(1), Wis. Stats., means a structure not actually used for navigation which extends beyond the ordinary high-water mark of a navigable waterway and is retained in place either by cables to the shoreline or by anchors or spudpoles attached to the bed of the waterway.

"Navigable waters" means Lake Superior, Lake Michigan, all natural inland lakes within Wisconsin, and all streams, ponds, sloughs, flowages, and other waters within the territorial limits of this state, including the Wisconsin portion of boundary waters, which are navigable under the laws of this state. Under section 144.26(2)(d), Wis. Stats., not withstanding any other provision of law or administrative rule promulgated thereunder, shoreland ordinances required under sections 61.351 or 62.231, Wis. Stats., and chapter NR 117, Wis. Adm. Code, do not apply to lands adjacent to farm drainage ditches if:

1.

Such lands are not adjacent to a natural navigable stream or river;

2.

Those parts of such drainage ditches adjacent to such lands were not navigable streams before ditching; and

3.

Such lands are maintained in nonstructural agricultural use.

Wisconsin's Supreme Court has declared navigable bodies of water that have a bed differentiated from adjacent uplands and levels or flow sufficient to support navigation by a recreational craft of the shallowest draft on an annually recurring basis [Muench v. Public Service Commission, 261 Wis. 492 (1952) and DeGaynor and Co., Inc., v. Department of Natural Resources, 70 Wis. 2d 936 (1975)]. For example, a stream that is navigable by skiff or canoe during normal spring high water is navigable, in fact, under the laws of this state though it may be dry during other seasons.

"Ordinary high-water mark" means the point on the bank or shore up to which the presence and action of surface water is so continuous as to leave a distinctive mark such as by erosion, destruction or prevention of terrestrial vegetation, predominance of aquatic vegetation, or other easily recognized characteristic.

"Shorelands" means lands within the following distances from the ordinary high-water mark of navigable waters; one thousand (1,000) feet from a lake, pond or flowage; and three hundred (300) feet from a river or stream or to the landward side of the floodplain, whichever distance is greater.

"Shoreland-wetland overlay district" means the overlay zoning district, created in the city of Juneau zoning ordinance, comprised of shorelands that are designated as wetlands on the wetlands inventory maps that have been adopted and made a part of this ordinance.

"Unnecessary hardship" means that circumstance where special conditions, that were not self-created, affect a particular property and make strict conformity with restrictions governing area, setbacks, frontage height or density unnecessarily burdensome or unreasonable in light of the purposes of this ordinance.

"Variance" means an authorization granted by the board of appeals to construct or alter a building or structure in a manner that deviates from the dimensional standards of this ordinance.

"Wetlands" means those areas where water is at, near, or above the land surface long enough to support aquatic or hydrophytic vegetation and which have soils indicative of wet conditions.

"Wetland alteration" means any filling, flooding, draining, dredging, ditching, tiling, excavating, temporary water level stabilization measures, or dike and dam construction in a wetland area.
