There is hereby established an Official Map of the Village of
Greenville and parts thereof, showing the location and width of streets,
highways, trails, parks, playgrounds and waterways. The Official Map
shall be conclusive with respect to the location, width and extent
thereof.
No land division or subdivision plat shall be approved unless
such land division or subdivision plat conforms to the Official Map.
Any person desiring to construct or enlarge a building within
the limits of a street, highway, trail, park, playground or waterway
as shown on the Official Map shall apply to the Village of Greenville
Building Inspector for a building permit. Unless application is made
and the building permit granted or not denied within 30 days, the
person is not entitled to compensation for damage to the building
in the course of construction of the street, highway, trail, park
or playground or waterway, so shown on the Official Map. No permit
for the erection of any building shall be issued unless a street or
highway giving access to such proposed structure has been dedicated,
opened or duly placed on the Official Map.
[Amended 10-13-2014]
The Village Board may change and amend the Official Map. No
such change or amendment shall become effective until after a public
hearing before the Village of Greenville Planning Commission. Notice
of the public hearing shall be published as a Class 2 notice under
Chapter 985, Wis. Stats. The Planning Commission shall then make a
recommendation on the changes or amendment to the Village Board. When
adopted by the Village Board, changes and amendments become a part
of the Official Map and are conclusive with respect to location, width
and extent.
The placing of any street, highway, trail, park, playground
or waterway upon the Official Map does not constitute the opening
or establishment of such street, highway, trail, park, playground
or waterway or the taking or acceptance of any land for these purposes.
A.
If the land within the mapped street, highway, park, playground or
waterway is not yielding a fair return, the Village of Greenville
Board of Appeals may, by a concurring vote of its members, grant a
permit for a building or addition within the limits shown which will,
as little as practicable, increase the cost of opening the street,
highway, park, playground or waterway or tend to cause a change of
the Official Map. The Board of Appeals may impose reasonable requirements
as a condition of granting the permit to promote the public health,
convenience, safety or general welfare. The Board of Appeals shall
refuse a permit where the applicant will not be substantially affected
by not constructing the addition or by placing the building outside
of the mapped area.
B.
Where the enforcement of the provisions of this chapter would entail
practical difficulty or unnecessary hardship, and where the circumstances
of the case do not require the structure to be related to existing
or proposed streets or highways, the applicant may appeal from the
decision of the Building Inspector to the Village of Greenville Board
of Appeals. The Board may, in passing on such appeal, make any reasonable
exception and issue the permit subject to conditions that will protect
any future street or highway layout.
C.
Before taking any action authorized in this chapter, the Village
of Greenville Board of Appeals shall hold a hearing at which parties
in interest and others shall have an opportunity to be heard. At least
15 days before the hearing, notice of the time and place of the hearing
shall be published as a Class 1 notice under Chapter 985, Wis. Stats.
Any decision of the Village of Greenville Board of Appeals shall
be subject to review by certiorari issued by a court of record. Such
review shall be commenced within 30 days of the decision of the Board.
The Village Clerk shall record with the Outagamie County Register
of Deeds a certificate showing that the Village of Greenville has
established an Official Map and shall do likewise as to any changes
or amendments.
The Village Clerk shall keep all maps and property descriptions
comprising the Official Map and shall promptly portray all changes
and amendments to the Official Map.
