In 2005, the Common Council created a new type of special zoning
district called the Redevelopment District.
Redevelopment District zoning is shown on the zoning map with a
RED designator.
The City's special zoning districts include RED, Park, Institutional,
and Planned Development. Special zoning districts are intended to
identify areas of the city that have unique qualities requiring
special treatment or locations where special approaches to development
may be warranted. Special districts are base zoning districts which:
|
» |
Protect or regulate
the development of unique areas, or |
|
» |
Provide more flexible
zoning districts which encourage good design and site layout |
The RED zoning
designation may be applied by the Common Council to any area of the
city where:
|
» |
The Council has
already adopted a redevelopment plan in accordance with the
State of Wisconsin’s blighted area law, and |
|
» |
The plan includes
specific regulations for the use, development and design of
properties and structures within its boundaries. |
Uses
Permitted, limited, special, conditional and prohibited uses for
property in a Redevelopment District are the same as indicated in the
redevelopment plan for that district.
Design Standards
The principal building design standards, accessory building design
standards
and site design standards for property in a redevelopment district are
the same as indicated in the redevelopment plan for that district.
For all matters other than use regulations
and design standards, the existing provisions of the zoning code
apply. |
