Village of Weston
Notice of Public Hearing
Repeal and Recreation of Village Zoning Ordinance
Chapter 94 of the Village of Weston Municipal Code
And
Chapter 95 of the Joint Town and Village of Weston Extraterritorial ZoningThe Village of Weston Plan Commission and the Joint Town & Village of Weston Extraterritorial Zoning (ETZ) Committee will hold a public hearing on March 9, 2015, commencing at 6:00 p.m., at the Village of Weston Municipal Center, located at 5500 Schofield Avenue, Weston, WI 54476. The purpose of the public hearing is to allow all interested parties to be heard concerning the repeal and recreation of the Village’s Zoning and Extraterritorial Zoning ordinances.
The Zoning and Extraterritorial Zoning ordinances regulate the use of land and divides the Village and the portion of the Town of Weston, located in the Extraterritorial Zoning area, into several different zoning districts, as represented on the Official Zoning Map. The Village undertook the effort to repeal and reenact these ordinances for several reasons.
*To create a modernized Zoning ordinance which is proactive, versus reactive, to the ever growing needs of the community, including business growth; and a Zoning ordinance which allows the community to grow and remain consistent to its current and evolving Comprehensive Plan.
*To combine the Village of Weston and ETZ Zoning ordinance into a single Zoning ordinance, along with the reduction of zoning districts and overlay districts to simplify the administration of the districts. Also to offer a broader set of land use categories, though, through the use of performance standards.
*Streamline development review processes and unnecessary regulations to advance economic development.
Beginning Monday, February 23, 2015, materials will be available for public inspection in the office of the Village Clerk, and will also be available on the Village of Weston website located at http://www.westonwi.gov/zoningupdate.
Written testimony may be forwarded to the Village of Weston Plan Commission, Valerie Parker, Plan Commission Secretary, 5500 Schofield Avenue, Weston, WI 54476, or e-mailed to vparker@westonwi.gov, by noon on the day of the public hearing. All interested persons will be given an opportunity to be heard. Any person with questions or planning to attend needing special accommodations in order to participate should call Valerie Parker, Administrative Specialist, Planning and Development Department, at 715-241-2607.Dated this 19th day of February, 2015
