15 issues in development
Cedar Gables street layout change
After roughly three years of failed bridge engineering, the developer won approval to split the phases with two cul-de-sacs — but only with the clubhouse moved to Phase 1, the same 92 units, and the right-turn-only exit kept to keep cut-through traffic out of Springdale Estates.
The Courtyard Development
The long-delayed memory care/assisted living development on Golf Road is moving forward, with the developer building the cul-de-sac, water main and sewer extensions, guaranteed by a $675,000 bond.
Bluemound Road Corridor Redevelopment
A 10,000-square-foot industrial building proposal was tabled because the applicant showed up with several conflicting renderings, unfinished landscaping plans, and no fire-truck turnaround. He's expected back with final architecture, a photometric study, and county traffic coordination.
Duplainville Road Rezone (Ordinance 26-05)
A 2.384-acre single-family parcel would be split into three buildable lots, adding two new homes. Stormwater plans and a shed relocation are conditions.
Shorepoint Church design revisions
The church project at Duplainville and Capitol moves forward with a developer's agreement and a $412,842 guarantee for the public watermain.
Border States storage yard near Victoria Station
An electrical-supply storage yard with barbed wire fencing and new light poles will operate next to a residential subdivision. Commissioners added landscaping and lighting conditions to soften the impact.
Ridgeview Corporate Park Phase II partial release
A property owner along Busse Road gets most of a decades-old developer agreement released ahead of what appears to be a property sale, with four key protections kept in place.
Waukesha State Bank lot combination on Ridgeview Parkway
The bank bought the former Ruekert-Mielke office site and is recombining two lots into one 7.07-acre parcel, reportedly for its headquarters use. No building or site changes are proposed.
The Glen at Springdale development agreement
A new mixed neighborhood of single-family homes and two- and four-unit condos on the Esser Farm gets the green light to start construction, with roads, sewer, and water that will be dedicated to the city. The ponds stay private, but the city gets maintenance rights over them.
The Glen at Springdale early grading
The condo and single-family development off Springdale Road got the green light for early grading and fill hauling, with underground work possibly starting in August. Neighbors are watching truck traffic, cleanup and safety closely.
Cold Noses Sanctuary dog facility expansion
The animal sanctuary on Lynndale Road is adding a gravel driveway, parking, pasture buildings and fencing, with event parking on fields. County approval of the new Lynndale Road entrance is still required.
T&M Waukesha Property Combination at N4 W22610 Bluemound Road
T&M Waukesha, LLC sought to combine two adjacent properties on Bluemound Road into one parcel via a certified survey map. Property combinations can affect future development options on a busy commercial corridor.
Spring Creek Church parking lot expansion
The church is adding 174 parking spaces and moving its youth athletic field north, away from the new lot, with painted walkways for kids crossing. Some past friction over stormwater management was raised but church leaders pledged a fresh start.
Cedar Gables Development Financial Guarantee
The council was to consider an additional financial guarantee for the Cedar Gables development and possibly swapping its letter of credit for a bond, protecting the city if the developer fails to finish improvements.
Proposed 4.39-Acre Land Donation
A landowner offered to donate about 4.39 acres along the east side of Redford Boulevard (County Road F) to the city; the council was to consider accepting it.
