approved; they’re waiting on water test & today’s decision. File Report: Kastrosky said a
letter of support is on file from adjoining property owner, Christine Lendved; no other
correspondence for / against. The Town approved and recommended this endeavor but
noted it is “contingent upon application for room tax permit, sanitary district permit, and this
permit can be reviewed due to multiple complaints from surrounding property owners.”
Wald said if complaints come forward, they will address them immediately. AZA Mike
Furtak said there is adequate parking but advised a snow removal plan is established
allowing room for trailers, snowmobiles, etc. Wald said they have plenty of land for parking.
Kastrosky noted a ‘correction’ to Wald’s opening comments. (Wald said this was a rezone
but meant “conditional use”.)
Opposition / Support: None
C. TOWN OF PORT WING (OWNER) / JEROME FLOGEL (AGENT) CONDITIONAL USE
REQUEST: Construction of Waste Water Treatment Facility Property is 1.72-acre parcel,
described as West 358’ of the East 567’ of that part of the South 209’ of the NW ¼ of the SE ¼,
that lies West of right-of-way of Town road known as Braff Avenue; and a 15.68-acre parcel
described as the North 467’ of the SW ¼ of the SE ¼, all in Section 29, Township 50 N, Range 8
W, Town of Port Wing.
Port Wing Chairman, Dwight Johnson, reported on the need for this facility stating they have
complied with all requirements, including Army Corps of Engineers; Okerstrom Street will be
closed, fenced, ‘bermed’. AZA Doug Casina said this is a permitted use, it meets permitting
requirements, today is “mostly formality”. File Report: Kastrosky said there are DNR letters on
file, Town approval but no other correspondence.
Speaking in Favor: None
Opposition:
• Nick Thill, Jr. (Port Wing) Spoke in opposition: His home sits close to the project;
concerned about the road closure, downwind odor situation, believes there ‘has to be’ a
different solution to proposed location. Concerned it was rushed into because the DNR
was ‘coming down on them’. Supervisor Maki asked if there is another location. AZA
Casina said he was not qualified to speak to that / the engineer was not present.
o Town Chairman Johnson said three other sites were looked at, there would be
water issues, pumping for miles, etc.; he noted everything in Port Wing drains to
Lake Superior. He also said this has been ‘in engineering’ for ten years; there was
no odor from the old system; according to DNR standards, the current system is
no longer allowed. This is without lagoons, a sand-filtered system where pure
water can go into the wetland. He noted four homes are within 800’; both the
DNR & Corps of Engineers are pleased to get rid of the current system which is in
wetlands.
o Maki was concerned about citizens’ recourse if there is odor. Casina reminded
him that the Zoning Dept. / Committee doesn’t have control over design
standards, only the ‘land use’. Director Kastrosky agreed, noting air quality is a
DNR issue; the Dept. / Committee’s function is to change the use from open,
undeveloped land (zoned R-4 which allows the requested use with a conditional
use permit).
o Supervisor Jardine asked if there was DNR data regarding odor. Johnson
noted one plant had no odor, another did; difference can depend on maintenance
Bayfield County Public Hearing / Meeting – Nov. 19, 2009
Page 3 of 8
and other factors. Supervisor Beeksma asked if the plant is located back as far
as possible and Johnson said it is. Nick Thill was concerned that a buffer of
trees be left and Johnson stated there will be.
No other opposition:
D. TOWN OF CABLE, LARRY LUDZACK (CHAIRMAN) REZONE REQUEST: Residential-2 to
Forestry-1: on property described as a 26.00-acre parcel (ID #04-012-2-43-08-13-4-01-000-
10000), located in the NE ¼ of the SE 1/4, less the West 25 rods, Section 13, Township 43
North, Range 7 West, Town of Cable.
Larry Ludzack said this request came about because of a cell tower (Forestry-1 allows it). File
Report: Director Kastrosky said the TBA is on file but no letters of support / opposition; he
noted there will be municipal zones in the future which will cover towers as permit-able use. Said
property is in the Cable rec park area west of town.
Support / Opposition: None
E. TOWN OF CABLE, LARRY LUDZACK (CHAIRMAN) & DAN ANDERSON (AGENT)
CONDITIONAL USE REQUEST: Construction / Operation of 195’ free standing lattice
tower (facilitating 3 tenants), on property described as a 26.00-acre parcel (ID #04-012-2-43-
08-13-4-01-000-10000), located in the NE ¼ of the SE 1/4, less the West 25 rods, Section 13,
Township 43 North, Range 7 West, Town of Cable.
Agent Dan Anderson said they are planning for three to four vendors; (Verizon will be next with
two); it will be built to extend upwards several more feet. Jardine asked if they would ask for a
taller tower if there was no limit on height. Answer was ‘yes’. Jardine then asked if we could
extend this and Kastrosky directed the Zoning Committee to request an ordinance amendment
if they desired but the only way now is with a variance. Anderson said the FFA could come
back saying it can’t be put at the requested height; they still need to approve this; the base is
planned to allow for addition(s) but everything is subject to the FFA. File Report: Kastrosky
said no letters of support / opposition were received; Town Board Recommended approval as it
is an allowable use within the area and provides a service to the community and ‘recommended
to Chequamegon Communications Coop.”
Support / Opposition: None
F. BAYFIELD ELECTRIC COOPERTIVE, INC. (OWNER) / HARLAND HANNINEN (AGENT)
CONDITIONAL USE REQUEST: Construct / Operate Eight-Unit Community-Based
Residential Facility w/ In-House Pharmacy on property is described as part of parcel (ID# 04-
024-2-47-08-08-3-00-192-46000), located in Lots 1-6, Block 31, Hessey’s Addition, Section 8,
Township 47 N, Range 8 W, Town of Iron River.
Trevor Provost (C & S Design / Ashland) spoke. Kastrosky said the ordinance is silent
regarding pharmacy locations; he asked if the intent of this pharmacy was just for the residential
facility or also for the public. Provost noted the pharmacy size is 16x24’. Agent Harland
Hanninen explained the pharmacy is set up for a pharmacist to rent the space; it will also be
open to the general public; it will include a drive-through window; located on District Street.
Kastrosky noted the primary use of the land is residential and the pharmacy would be a
secondary use; there is no direction in the ordinance on this and the pharmacy has been part of
the plan from the beginning. Town approval is on file but no other correspondence.
Support / Opposition: None

40000), located in Lot 3 of CSM 1015, all in Section 17, Township 49 N, Range 5 W, Town of
Bayview.
Richard Geiser, Bremer Bank President, stated these duplexes have been rented; this is to
continue and formalize the operation. Kastrosky noted the permit will stay w/ this property
unless the Zoning Committee wishes to place a condition otherwise, however, the applicant
would not desire that. AZA Mike Furtak asked if supervision/property management is set up to
avoid problems with neighbors such as has occurred occasionally with short-term rentals. LUS
Travis Tulowitzky stated these units were built as rentals in 1999 and have been rented for ten
years; we have not received complaints and noted there are caretakers on site.
File Report: Kastrosky said Town approval is on file which states, “that Room Tax is payable to
the Town of Bayview, should be paid up to current levels.” Geison said his understanding is the
room tax has been paid.

the SW ¼ of the SE ¼, all in Section 29, Township 50 N, Range 8 W, Town of Port Wing.
Maki asked if stipulations could be placed on the permit if the facility starts to smell, or if the DNR or
“powers to be” would settle it. Jardine didn’t believe it will be a problem. Rondeau didn’t think the
Zoning Committee could regulate that type of condition. Kastrosky suggested they could place a
condition, and be on record, that as much vegetation be left as possible and that concerns / issues
regarding odor would be passed to the DNR as they are the agency that monitors that. Miller said
he thinks the Town is “the first one in line”. Maki asked that a letter be forwarded to the DNR.

equipment. Motion by Maki / Miller to approve. File report: Kastrosky reported Town approval as
it complies with the commercial area plan for Hwy. N & 27. He also noted his disappointment with the
State. They choose to exempt themselves from fees for this, it’s our hearing, our site visit, our
expense. Jardine encouraged everyone to vote ‘no’ on this issue. Kastrosky said we would be
“hard-pressed to deny this”; fire protection is needed, we cannot oppose just because of argument on
fees. Motion carried 4 yes / 1 no (Jardine).

Motion carried 5 yes / 0 no.
N. DISCUSSION / POSSIBLE ACTION - TOWN OF RUSSELL OVERLAY AMENDMENT:
Update by Kastrosky: He asked for Bussey’s opinion of the Petition and it was to not even include
who owns the ‘open space’, just remain silent on it. Kastrosky attended the Town meeting, they
wanted the Zoning Committee to consider minor modifications to what was approved and presented
to the ZC. The Town was concerned about logging off / farming but this covers that aspect and
prohibiting any structure and any change in the use of the land requiring a permit within the open
space.
Maki was wanted to see CSMs rather than metes and bounds on open space. Kastrosky said the
Town didn’t want five acre parcels all over so went w/ the minimum of 20 acres but the Zoning Dept.
had legal concerns and the relief was that in certain circumstances you can do this alternative
development. He said the Town’s efforts were in right direction, they don’t care who owns the open
space; they just seek to protect that space. Maki again said it should be done by CSM as he is
concerned the open space will end up coming back to the County and become public land.
Kastrosky said this is the Town’s petition, was only explaining it, not defending it. Maki said he was
in approval of this if there are CSMs of the open space so everyone knows where it is.
Bayfield County Public Hearing / Meeting – Nov. 19, 2009
Page 7 of 8
Tulowitzky noted this Item was approved last month with the condition that Corp. Counsel Bill
Bussey would review it and it would come back here with that review KLK brought it back. Carlson
drafted the Russell. Maki wanted to strike meets / bounds and leave CSM. Jardine asked if could
postpone. KLK said they approved prior and this would need to go to full board but doesn’t feel they
are ready for that.
Motion by Maki to change ‘C’ by striking ‘metes and bounds’, changing to ‘CSM’ and approve
with other changes as printed and send on to the Full board. Rondeau seconded the motion;
carried 5 yes / 0 no.
O. BAYFIELD COUNTY RESOLUTION – COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: Kastrosky said this will be
presented at the county Board with minor corrections yet, however, this Committee has to
recommend the resolution. Motion by Rondeau / Jardine to approve the resolution and send to
the Full Board for their approval. Motion carried 5 yes / 0 no.
P. DISCUSSION / POSSIBLE ACTION REGARDING MARK / KELLY ILLICK COFFEE SHOP
(Eileen): Kastrosky reminded the Committee that it was determined the Illick’s sewer was
inadequate for the addition of a coffee shop; their deadline was in October to come up with a plan,
whether to enlarge the system, monitor it, etc. He reported Tulowitzky had sent a letter (asking for
their solution) which received no response. They were given a new timeline to resolve the issue and
asked to come to this meeting. Again there was no written response.
Kastrosky said there are two issues: they were given approval to expand their business which they
are already running; it is highly suspect that their system will fail, therefore, he asked if we should
not issue their permit and let them fail; or shut down the coffee shop. Jardine said the Dept. should
handle it. Maki wanted to just let them continue to operate.
Kastrosky reported it is a ‘way undersized system’ and they keep adding commercial endeavors—
the system is not large enough to treat all their businesses. He also noted that in October,
Tulowitzky sent another letter with a new deadline to get an application by June 1, 2010 and have it
installed by August 1, 2010. Tulowitzky asked Mark Illick if that was agreeable on the phone and his
answer was ‘yes’. He then asked Illick for that in writing, and if not agreeable, to attend this meeting;
he then noted they were not in attendance. Options were outlined for the Illicks; Tulowitzky was
willing to keep working with them but if nothing happened by August 2010, something needs to be
done in this situation.
Motion by Miller / Rondeau: they have until August 1, 2010 to have their septic in compliance,
or they will not get a permit. Motion carried 4 yes / 1 no (Maki).
Q. CITIZENS’ CONCERNS / INPUT - CITIZENS’ CONCERNS / INPUT:
•••• LUS Tulowitzky: RE a Town of Mason situation of Town garage/hall addition—they found
out some buildings were not on their property so purchased some additional property. They
came in for a pole building permit not an addition which is municipal and special use permit.
They missed the deadline for this meeting and are now looking at the December meeting.
They now sent in their application with the following note: ‘Rush application along as soon as
possible, the, board has decided to start building regardless of application procedures.’
Kastrosky said their survey is not even complete and Tulowitzky can’t give them a verbal to
start - he’s not the one to decide. They will come before the Committee in Dec. Furtak said
the ‘at or below grade work’ doesn’t need a permit but if don’t know the property lines they
are liable if setbacks are wrong; the survey map is not even recorded yet. Kastrosky said
eliminating special use permits for municipal buildings, instead just requiring regular land use
permits, is in the amendments.

• Kastrosky said we are starting to lock horns w/ the DNR over the Twin Bear Park issue;
there is no permit from the DNR; there will be a conflict w/ Land Conservation & the DNR.
• Kastrosky RE NR-115: Went to Legislative Committee; we are upset with their decision of
vertical expansions only for buildings and structures between 40 ft. & 75 ft. from the high
water mark.
• Kastrosky RE tower heights: He said he didn’t remember Jardine’s [earlier in meeting]
comments that this was set by the Ad Hoc Committee. Furtak questioned the reason the
County hasn’t decided to have towers placed on county land as a means of revenue
(leasing) and said it was suggested some time ago to Administration but nothing has been
done. Consensus of Committee was for Kastrosky to draft up language for towers in excess
of 199 ft. and present in Dec.
R. DISCUSSION / POSSIBLE ACTION – COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING: Covered above.
