1 VILLAGE OF MENOMONEE FALLS, WISCONSIN RICHFIELD WAY REDEVELOPMENT PLAN Prepared by: Village of Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin Community Development Authority Approved by the Community Development Authority on August 11, 2008 Approved by the Village Board on August 18, 2008

2 VILLAGE OF MENOMONEE FALLS, WISCONSIN RICHFIELD WAY REDEVELOPMENT PLAN INTRODUCTION On January 21, 2008, the Village Board adopted Resolution No. 691-R-08, a resolution authorizing the Village Manager to initiate processes relating to the possible amendment of Tax Incremental District #6, the possible creation of a new tax incremental district, and the possible creation of a new redevelopment district for the westerly portion of Menomonee Falls Tax Incremental District #6. An amendment to TID #6 has been drafted, the process has started to create Tax Incremental District #8 for the westerly portion of TID #6, and this redevelopment plan was drafted as part of the process to create a redevelopment district for the westerly portion of TID #6. This redevelopment plan is prepared by the Village of Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin, Community Development Authority (CDA) pursuant to Wisconsin Statutes Section (6), as authorized under Wisconsin Statutes Section , Housing and Community Development Authorities, and Wisconsin Statutes Section , the Blight Elimination and Slum Clearance Act. This redevelopment plan is intended to serve as the general framework or guide to redevelopment within the area, so redevelopment and renewal projects may be more precisely planned and executed. The plan designates the boundary of the project area ( Project Area ), and includes an existing land use map which designates the general distribution and location of the various categories of land uses within the Project Area. This redevelopment plan will be known as the ( Plan ). DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT The Project Area is an area bounded generally by USH on the north, Water Street on the west, Roosevelt Drive on the south, and Pilgrim Road on the east. The Project Area comprises net acres and 43 parcels. It is a prominent location along the USH corridor, and it provides an opportunity to develop attractive and productive business sites, providing jobs and tax base for the Village. One large parcel is vacant, and one large site is underutilized because it is primarily used for the outdoor storage and display of merchandise. Two parcels have old manufacturing buildings on them, and one of these sites has known environmental contamination problems. Preliminary estimates to clean up the environmental contamination are significant, possibly creating a disincentive for private re-investment and redevelopment. Menomonee Falls Water Utility Well #3 is down-gradient from the contaminated site. Page 2 of 33

3 Testing to date has demonstrated that the well has not been impacted by the contamination, but additional testing may be warranted to confirm that the well may not be impacted in the future. PLAN OBJECTIVES The objectives of the Plan are: 1. Encourage private investment in residential, commercial and office projects in the redevelopment area. 2. Eliminate blighting influences. 3. Diversify the local economy through tax base and job creation. 4. Create a well-planned, safe and healthful area. 5. Provide cleared and fully improved sites for commercial development and mixed use projects to include residential, commercial and office development. 6. Promote land uses that tend to lead to relatively more capital investment and more family-supporting jobs by restricting land uses that tend not to do so. 7. Improve traffic and pedestrian circulation. 8. Mitigate and, if appropriate, remediate environmental contamination in the soils and buildings that interfere with investment in and the use/reuse of land and buildings in the project area through state-of-the-art means. 9. Eliminate the likelihood that buildings and land will be vacant and unused for long periods of time, which results in a blighting influence on the surrounding community. CONSISTENCY WITH LOCAL PLANS The Plan is consistent with the Village of Menomonee Falls Comprehensive Plan, the project plan for Tax Incremental District #8 (proposed), the Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (CORP), and the current Capital Improvements Plan. EXISTING LAND USE AND ZONING Existing land uses in the Project Area are depicted in Appendix A. The zoning of the Project Area is primarily Planned Development District No. 2 (PDD #2); the area west of Water Street is zoned I-1 Light Industrial District. Page 3 of 33

4 EXISTING CONDITIONS The two largest buildings in the Project Area are aged and obsolete by modern standards. One of these buildings is vacant and has known environmental contamination, and the other one may need clean-up because of the age of the building and its previous uses. The building on one other parcel has been used as a foundry, so it may need clean-up also. One other large parcel has been used for storing vehicles involved in traffic accidents, so there may be some environmental problems on this site. PROPOSED LAND USE AND ZONING Land uses proposed in the Project Area following redevelopment are shown on the map entitled PROPOSED LAND USES. These are consistent with the Village of Menomonee Falls Comprehensive Plan. The exact location of buildings, parking areas, recreational areas, public street and alley rights-of-way may be modified, adjusted or revised by the CDA during the course of project review without amendment of the Plan, provided that such modifications or revisions in the location or design do not adversely affect the original objectives of the Plan, and are subsequently approved by the Village of Menomonee Falls. It is intended that the land use plan established by the Plan will promote commercial development in the Project Area, and rehabilitation of the surrounding residential and mixed use areas. Currently, the majority of the Project Area is zoned Planned Development District #2 (PDD #2). The remainder of the Project Area is zoned I-1 Light Industrial District. PDD #2 allows a variety of uses, but those uses are closely tied to the Land Use Plan for the area. The uses are commercial, mixed-use commercial, low-density residential, medium-density residential, and mixed-use residential. The Village is considering changing the land use plan and zoning by expanding the commercial area, and reducing the residential areas. The area zoned I-1 Light Industrial District will be proposed to be rezoned. STANDARDS OF POPULATION DENSITY, LAND COVERAGE AND BUILDING INTENSITY AFTER REDEVELOPMENT Properties in the Project Area will be developed in accordance with applicable zoning, subdivision and other land use restrictions. Page 4 of 33

5 PRESENT AND POTENTIAL EQUALIZED VALUE As of January 1, 2007, the total equalized value of the Project Area was $10,884,900. The potential equalized value after redevelopment is approximately $100,000,000. PROJECT ACTIVITIES Land Acquisition It may be necessary for the Village to acquire land for right-of-way, easements, environmental clean-up, or other activities in furtherance of this Plan. Public Improvements Public improvements in the Project Area must be adequate to support new and retained development. Public improvements will be provided by the Village of Menomonee Falls in conjunction with its Capital Improvements Program, and funded by an appropriate funding source. Design Objectives All project redevelopment proposals will provide for the highest feasible levels of architectural and environmental design, and shall be predicated on sound principles and best practices of site planning and building construction. Primary structures, accessory parking areas, usable open space, and utilitarian site features, such as waste collection stations, shall be functionally located and arranged with respect to both the disposition of the site and surrounding development. All project redevelopment proposals shall be submitted to the CDA and Architectural Control Board for design review. Approval of any proposal shall be subject to a favorable determination by the CDA that such proposal conforms to the intent of this Plan and the design guidelines in the appropriate zoning regulations. PLAN AMENDMENTS The Plan may be amended at any time in accord with the provisions of applicable subsections of Section , Wisconsin Statutes. RELOCATION OF DISPLACED PERSONS AND BUSINESSES Persons and businesses displaced by project activities will be relocated in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. Relocation plans for the project will be filed with the appropriate office of government. These plans will be the basis for all relocation payments made as part of this project. Page 5 of 33

6 PROPERTY ACQUISITION AND DISPOSITION Property acquired as a result of the Plan is anticipated to be purchased by the CDA. All acquisitions will follow the legal requirements imposed on the CDA for property acquisition. The disposition of property will follow the legal requirements imposed on the CDA for property disposition. TERMINATION The Plan and Project Area will terminate on the date of retirement of any Tax Incremental Districts associated with the Plan if not scheduled to remain in effect for a longer period by a decision of the Village Board.

33 FINDINGS The Project Area can be summarized as: The Project Area is a highly visible and prominent location in the Village of Menomonee Falls. The 80+ acres in the Project Area are divided into 43 separate parcels under various ownerships. A substantial number of properties are vacant land. A predominance of the Project Area is unoccupied and/or contains obsolete, deteriorated buildings. The unoccupied buildings attract vandalism and crime. A substantial number of properties have improvements which are old, obsolete and deteriorated. The location and geometry of the vacant and underutilized parcels makes them unlikely to be economically developed on an individual basis. There is significant documented environmental contamination on one large improved parcel. Other parcels are presumed contaminated. There is little functional integration or interaction between the parcels creating an environment that lacks community appeal or character. There is a lack of cohesion of uses; incompatible uses are located near one another. The vacancies, deteriorated building improvements, inconsistent development patterns, etc, present a negative image of the area. Properties for sale remain on the market, and there are few requests for building permits for existing buildings, which indicate a lack of private investment in the area. Based on the physical status of the properties, the condition of the Project Area is conducive to crime and ill health, impairs and arrests the sound growth of Menomonee Falls, constitutes an economic and social liability, and is a menace to the public health, safety, morals and welfare in its present condition and use.
