June 27, 2011
TO: Janesville City Council
FROM: Brad Schmidt, AICP, Associate Planner
SUBJECT: Final CSM 11002-C, Marklein and Bever, 1 lot on Sandhill Drive
SUMMARY
Scott Marklein and Scott Bever, representing HospiceCare, Inc., have requested the
approval of a one-lot CSM at the southwest corner of the intersection of Sandhill Drive
and North Wright Road. The applicant is proposing to construct a service center for its
hospice operations on 5-acres of land. Initial plans for the facility do not include in-
patient services. However, if the need for such services is in demand in the future, such
in-patient services may be offered on the site. The property is undeveloped and zoned
R3, General Residence District.
DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION
The Plan Commission and Community Development Department recommend that the
City Council support a motion to approve Final CSM 11002-C.
CITY MANAGER RECOMMENDATION
The City Manager defers to the Plan Commission recommendation.
SUGGESTED MOTION
A motion to approve Final CSM 11002-C subject to the following conditions:
1. Recording of a quit claim deed by separate instrument for the future extension of
Sandhill Drive west of the survey area. Right-of-way will be dedicated when
included in a future plat or survey when the adjoining land is subdivided and
assessments will be calculated at that time.
2. The survey will be subject to the payment of assessments for storm sewers
($24,804.66), sidewalk ($14,233.97) and street lights ($1,448.47).
3. Payment of any outstanding special assessments including taxes owed (the
applicant should contact the City Clerk’s Office regarding this item).
ANALYSIS
A. The subject site is located at the southwest corner of Sandhill Drive and North Wright
Road. The property includes approximately 5 acres of land which is currently
undeveloped and part of a larger 40-acre tract owned by Marklein Builders. The
applicant has secured an offer to purchase the subject property for construction of a
Hospice Care regional service facility.
B. The survey includes dedication of land for public right-of-way on the southwest corner
of the site. This land dedication is minimal (less than 10 square feet in area) and is
the result of an off-set of current public-right-of way where an adjoining property line
meets N. Wright Road.
C. The property is currently zoned R3, General Residence District. The proposed use is
not permitted in the R3 district; however, the applicants are in the process of
submitting a rezoning request to rezone the property from R3, General Residence
District to O1, Office/Residence District.
D. The property owner must provide a quit claim deed to the City conveying the
necessary right-of-way for the future extension of Sandhill Drive west of the survey
area as part of this survey approval. The extension of Sandhill Drive right-of-way will
be included in a future plat or survey when the adjoining land is subdivided and
assessments will be calculated at that time.
E. Sidewalks are designated along the North Wright Road and Sandhill Drive frontage of
Lot 1. The requisite sidewalk note must be added to the final survey.
F. The final survey must include all existing utility easements and additional utility
easements as requested by the utility companies having rights to serve the area.
G. The survey will be subject to the payment of assessments for storm sewers
($24,804.66), sidewalk ($14,233.97) and street lights ($1,448.47).
H. The applicant should contact the City Clerk’s Office regarding any outstanding taxes,
special assessments, or other fees which must be paid.
PLAN COMMISSION ACTION – 6 June 2011
The Plan Commission unanimously agreed to forward Final CSM 11002-C to the City
Council with a favorable recommendation subject to the conditions listed in the
“Suggested Motion” section above.
