(Ord. No. 2024-6-24, 10-28-2024)

(a)

Statement of intent: The purpose of this district is to allow for agricultural and rural use of lands to continue while also allowing for cluster development on lands located in rural or semi-rural areas. Additional stated purposes of this district include::

(1)

Promote the preservation of the rural character of the Village by encouraging farm fields, pastures, orchards, and natural open spaces to be retained either as common open spaces, or as part of a farm operation.

(2)

To achieve the optimum residential environment while recognizing the rural character of the Village. The density transfer technique is designed to permit variable lot sizes in the utilization of the most desirable terrain for housing sites while encouraging preservation of natural resource lands and agricultural lands.

(3)

This district allows for the transfer of residential development rights from one area of a parcel to another area of a parcel, thereby allowing an increase in density of development on suitable lands for development in exchange for establishing the preservation of natural resources or agricultural lands known as "preserved lands."

(b)

Review of proposed development: Review of proposed development. Where a development is to occur involving the establishment of "preserved lands," approval by the Village Plan Commission and Village Board shall be required. The development proposed shall conform to the following standards:

(1)

The shape and arrangement of preserved lands shall be approved by the Village Plan Commission and Village Board pursuant to the requirements of this district.

(2)

Lands zoned AD-5 that are proposed to be developed via subdivision plat must be developed in a conservation design format following best management practices. Subdivisions shall provide common open space and conserve natural resource lands.

(3)

The preserved lands shall be retained in one of the following manners:

a.

A deed restriction or covenant recorded with the Racine County Register of Deeds noting that part or all of the development rights have been utilized for the subject land.

b.

All lot owners within the developed area for which the preserved land is protected could own an undividable interest in said preserved land. Development of those lands may not occur until such times as it could be served with municipal sewer and a zoning change is approved by the Village of Raymond.

c.

The preserved lands may be retained in public ownership if the Village of Raymond or Racine County is willing to accept a dedication or acquire the land.

(4)

The development density in the AD-5 District shall be no less than five acre per lot proposed.

(5)

In order to preserve the rural character as well as the efficiency and safety of existing road systems, lands to be developed via subdivision plat shall have lots clustered on interior subdivision streets to minimize lots being accessed from existing arterials or roadways by individual driveway accesses. The goal of this provision is to encourage grouping of lots on an interior street which will then access the existing road system.

(6)

Any land claimed in addition to the actual described residential lots, for credit toward meeting the density factor requirement, shall have its status permanently established, and guaranteed, either by dedication to the public, or by appropriate covenants running with the lands, in conveyance of agricultural easements. Such covenants and easements shall be recorded with the Racine County Register of Deeds and shall restrict the property against any development or use except as is consistent with its preservation as agricultural land or as a form of common open space until such times as it could be served with municipal sewer and a zoning change is approved by the Village of Raymond. The preserved land status of any parcel shall be indicated on the Official Zoning Map.

(7)

The density calculation allowed includes utilizing all lands including, but not limited to, preserved farm fields, pastures, orchards, natural opens spaces initially retained either as common open spaces or farm operations, protected wetlands, floodplains, C-1 Conservancy areas, areas in a Primary Environmental Corridor and roads. For example, if 100 acres includes 80 acres of farmland, 15 acres of wetlands, five acres of platted right-of-way for public roads, the density calculation is 100 divided by five, resulting in 20 lots.

(8)

In addition to requiring an appropriate open space or an agricultural/conservation easement on the transferring lands in favor of the Village and/or county, covenants shall be placed in the title of each dwelling unit, giving the owner enforceable rights to prevent the future development of the transferring lands until such times as it could be served with municipal sewer and a zoning change is approved by the Village of Raymond.

(9)

No additional development rights would accrue to the preserved lands until such times as it could be served with municipal sewer and a zoning change is approved by the Village of Raymond.

Statement of intent: The C-1 Lowland Resource Conservancy District is intended to be used to prevent destruction of valuable natural or man-made resources and to protect watercourses and marshes, including the shorelands of navigable waters, and areas that are not naturally drained or which are subject to periodic flooding, where development would result in hazards to health or safety or would deplete or destroy natural resources or be otherwise incompatible with public welfare.

(b)

Designation of lowland conservancy areas: For the purpose of determining which areas are to be located in the C-1 Lowland Resource Conservancy District, the Zoning Administrator shall develop district maps reflecting the best data available. The district delineation process shall make use of the Wisconsin Wetland Inventory as depicted on the Department of Natural Resources Surface Water Data Viewer or other maps that reflect the best data available. This district includes all shoreland areas that are considered wetlands, as defined in this chapter and as mapped and/or determined as wetlands in this chapter. Shoreland/wetlands designated on the Wisconsin Wetland Inventory Maps prepared by the WDNR, as also depicted on the Department of Natural Resources Surface Water Data Viewer, are also referred to as being located in the "Shoreland-Wetland Zoning District," as defined in this chapter. Said shoreland/wetlands are subject to the regulations of this section.

(c)

Mapping: Mapping disputes in the C-1 District. Whenever it is alleged that a discrepancy exists between a Lowland Resource Conservancy District delineation and actual field conditions, the Zoning Administrator shall resolve the discrepancy in the following manner:

(1)

The Planning and Development Administrator shall request that the staff of the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources determine if the map is in error. If the Department determines that a particular area was incorrectly mapped as wetland or meets the wetland definition but was not shown as wetland on the map, the Village shall have the authority to immediately grant or deny a shoreland zoning permit in accordance with the applicable regulations based on the Department determination as to whether the area is wetland.

(2)

The Planning and Development Administrator shall notify the property owner of the preliminary results of the field investigation. The property owner shall determine, within 30 days, whether he will pursue a final wetland determination on the property.

(3)

Should the property owner decide to pursue a final wetland determination, he shall have a plat of survey prepared by a professional land surveyor. The plat of survey shall show all property lines, structures on the lot or parcel, and the location of the wetland boundary as staked in the field. The plat of survey shall be filed with the Planning and Development Administrator.

(4)

The Planning and Development Administrator shall institute the appropriate action to change the Zoning Map to conform to the plat of survey. No fee shall be required of the property owner for this action.

(Ord. No. 2024-6-24, 10-28-2024)

(a)

Statement of intent: The Design Guide Overlay District is intended to aide the Zoning Administrator and Planning Commission in planning, design, and redesign of the built environment of the Village of Raymond within the confines of the gateway properties along Interstate 94 so as to enhance its visual character, and avoid monotony. These standards will also assist in fostering sound, functional, attractive and quality development. The provisions shall be liberally construed in favor of the Village and shall be considered as minimum standards.

(Ord. No. 2024-6-24, 10-28-2024)

(a)

Statement of intent: The PUD planned unit development district, set forth in this section, is intended to permit developments that will, over a period of time, be enhanced by coordinated area site planning and diversified location of structures. Such developments are intended to provide a safe and efficient system for pedestrian and vehicle traffic, to provide attractive recreation and open spaces as integral parts of the developments, to enable economic design in the location of public and private services and community facilities, and to ensure adequate standards of construction and planning. The PUD district under this division will allow for flexibility of overall development design with benefits from such design flexibility intended to be derived by both the developer and the community, while at the same time maintaining insofar as possible the land use density and other standards or use requirements set forth in the requested zoning district.

(b)

Permitted uses: The unified and planned development of a site, in single or corporate ownership at the time of development, may be permitted in a Planned Unit Development District, without the customary division into individual lots, or without specific compliance to the district regulations as applicable to individual lots, subject to the regulations as hereinafter provided in this Section.

(c)

District requirements:

(1)

Size allowed: For the purpose of this Ordinance all Planned Unit Development Projects shall be classified as follows and be limited to parent parcels of not less than the size indicated:

(2)

Application of Regulations:

a.

Uses and Structures. In addition to the uses permitted in the underlying district any other use may be permitted as hereinafter designated above consistent with the criteria established in the basis for approval below.

b.

Individual uses and structures in a Planned Development District need not comply with the specific building location, height, building size, lot size, and open space requirements of the underlying basic district provided that the spirit and intent of such requirements are complied with in the total development plan for such project consistent with the criteria as established in the basis for approval below.

c.

Applicable Underlying Zoning Districts. The PUD Planned Unit Development District may be applied to all zoning districts.

d.

All PUDs shall be serviced by sanitary sewer other than those PUDs proposed under the Village's subdivision ordinances.

e.

Density: For specific project density computation, the allowable maximum unit density shall be determined by dividing the gross area of the planned development (Exclusive of existing public right-of-way or public open space easement) by the square feet per unit or lot as required by the district intended. In the case of mixed-use developments, a separate density calculation shall be computed for each defined use in the development (Ex. On an 80-acre planned development, 40 acres is intended for R-2 uses and 40 acres are intended for R-3 uses; the density computations would be run separately as follows: 1,742,400 square feet/40,000 square feet per unit for R-2 and 1,742,400 square feet/20,000 square feet per unit for R-3).

(d)

Application procedure:.

(1)

Petition: Petition may be made to the Village Board by the owner or agent of property proposed for such development, to amend the zoning map by the overlaying of a PUD District in order to permit the application of the provisions of this Section to such development.
