ADUs Decisions in Mount Pleasant

An Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) is a secondary housing unit located on the same parcel as a primary single-family residence. ADUs go by many names - granny flats, in-law suites, backyard cottages, garage apartments, or casitas - but they all share the common characteristic of being smaller, subordinate residential units that share a lot with the main house.

Mount Pleasant is a Village in Racine County, Wisconsin, and its zoning regulations are codified as Chapter 90 of the Village Code of Ordinances. The Village Planning Department administers Chapter 90 day to day, and land-use questions are handled out of the offices at 8811 Campus Drive, Mount Pleasant, WI 53406.

The Plan Commission is made up of five citizen members and two Village Trustees. It reviews development proposals and makes recommendations to the Village Board on matters such as conditional uses, zoning map amendments, certified survey maps, subdivision plats, and zoning text amendments. It meets on the Wednesday between the second and fourth Monday of every month at 1:00 PM at Village Hall, and meetings are open to the public and streamed online.

The Village Zoning Board of Appeals hears and decides zoning variance requests and appeals of administrative zoning determinations. Variance applications are processed under Division 90-560 of the Zoning Code, and after a public hearing the board makes findings of fact and votes to approve, approve with conditions, refer back to staff, or deny. The board is made up of five citizen members (plus alternates) and meets, as needed, on the Wednesday between the second and fourth Monday of each month at 5:30 PM at Village Hall.

Chapter 90 organizes the Village into several district categories, including residential districts (intended to maintain and promote a variety of housing opportunities and neighborhood character), mixed-use districts (intended to promote walkable mixed-use development patterns), and legacy districts such as previously approved Planned Development (PD) districts, which remain classified as PD until rezoned. The specific boundaries are set on the official Zoning District Map for the Village of Mount Pleasant, Racine County, Wisconsin.
