Master Site plan and/or site plan illustrating exact dimensions and number of parcels for the specific site being submitted for certification

• Minimum of 20 contiguous developable acres

• Site is 33.2 acres, with expansion potential of an additional 600 acres on and around airport property.
• Due to the site’s proximity to airport runway, there are clearly documented height restrictions for construction on the site. The current height restriction is 61’4” on the portion of the site closest to the runway (a potential runway extension could reduce that to 52’2” at the very lowest). Additionally, the FAA will need to approve certain parts of the site development plan, including lease rates, building materials, lighting, etc.
• Industrial use is explicitly permitted on the site, per the airport zoning overlay.

Ownership – entire site must be wholly controlled by a single owner with documented willingness to sell to an industrial user

• Site is owned by Brown County; certificate of title submitted
• As the site is on the property of Brown County Airport (a.k.a. Austin Straubel International Airport), it is not permitted to be sold to any other entity, but can be leased to an industrial end user
• County anticipates lease term of 25 years with a 25-year extension plan

Asking Price – current asking price for sale or lease of the land must be indicated

• Documentation of asking price on a per-acre basis

• Wetlands delineation report conducted on the site, demonstrating that impacts to be protected waters will be avoided (or approved mitigation plans)

• Wetland Delineation Study completed on the site in May 2015 identified no wetlands on the 33.2-acre site. A few existing natural drainage conveyances were delineated in the additional acreage directly north and west of the site, but that land is not included in the 33.2-acre site evaluated.

Environmental Assessment – no known environmental impediments to immediate industrial development

Geotechnical – minimum of 5 soil borings (for 50-acre site); no presence of sink holes or limestone caves; suitable water content / water table depth

• Geotechnical study completed on the site and immediately surrounding parcel since January 2015; study included six borings to 20’ dept
• Water table 7.5’ to 13.5’

Archaeological/Historical – no known archaeological/historical impediments to immediate industrial development

• Archaeological investigations conducted in May and July of 2015 identified a potentially protected historical homestead in an area to the southwest of the site. This area, as well as a buffer deemed suitable for protection of the potential historical site by the State Historical Society of Wisconsin, is all outside of the boundaries of the site evaluated within the program.

Endangered Species – no known impediments to immediate industrial development related to endangered species

• Completed by Mead & Hunt in May 2015

Fire Protection

• Fire Insurance Classification Rating
• Distance to the nearest servicing fire department

• Currently rated at 10, but will become five when water is extended to site
• Site is 4,100’ from Hobart Fire Station (volunteer); 4.5 miles from Ashwaubenon Fire Station (permanently staffed)

Industrial zoning (or equivalent) currently in place, or zoning change procedure underway as of field investigation

• Zoning certificate and relevant ordinance; or, letter from municipal authorities communicating status of zoning change procedure as of field investigation date

• Site was rezoned in June 2015 from Agricultural (A1) to Industrial Park District (I2)

Surrounding area zoning – zoning of surrounding properties compatible with industrial development of site

• Comprehensive plan of area (if applicable)
• Zoning map of area including site (if applicable)
• Existing/planned zoning of surrounding land
• Codes, covenants, and restrictions on site and surrounding sites, as applicable

• Village of Hobart’s comprehensive plan indicates that the site and adjacent properties should be developed as industrial
• Brown County and municipalities spent two years aligning on desired land use for parcels around airport to align on goals and expectations
• A representative from the Oneida Tribe Development Branch (which owns the land adjacent to the site on the west and the north) expressed support for industrial development of the site. The tribe’s long-range vision for the area is to maintain the rural characteristics of the Oneida Reservation in balance with the built environment.

Proximate electric power infrastructure availability and capacities

• Utility maps indicating location and current size/capacity of proximate transmission lines, distribution lines, and substations; available capacity that could be provided to the site for each of the above

• WPS has a single-phase 14kV line at the site boundary now, as well as a three-phase 24.9kV line at the intersection of Pine Tree Road and Mason (2.5 miles north of the site)

Detailed description of dual feed potential (current or proposed redundant service)

• Overview (and map) illustrating dual feed electric service routes, including location, size and capacity of each node of delivery (substation, distribution line, etc.)

• WPS has two substations in the area: Glory Road (~4 miles away) has ~13mVa available capacity (26 mVa installed total) and is served by three distribution sources; Mason Road substation (5.5 miles away) has 26 mVa of total capacity and is served by four distribution sources
• Dual feed to the site from separate substations would be possible from Glory Road and Mason Road substations
• If an end user wished to receive transmission-level service, WPS indicated that it sees no obstacles to extension of a transmission feed from the ATC line two miles west of the site.

Introduction of any proposed improvements to/extensions of electric service to the site

• Cost, timing and funding responsibility of any improvements required to provide proposed service to the site

• Extension of three-phase service from Pine Tree Road and Mason (2.5 miles north of the site) would enable delivery of ~5MW to the site
• WPS estimates a cost of ~$92,000 to extend 3 Phase line from Pine Tree and Mason Road
• Load-based credits to the end user could offset some or all of the cost of the extension
• This proposed extension could be completed during the initial phases of construction at the site.

Proximate natural gas infrastructure availability and capacities

• Utility maps indicating location and current size/capacity of proximate transmission lines, distribution lines, delivery points, etc; available capacity that could be provided to the site for each of the above

• WPS has natural gas distribution lines in place both north and south of the site, but these are all 2” lines without capacity to serve an industrial user
• WPS could extend a 6” distribution line to the site boundary from the intersection of Orlando Drive and County Highway U, where an existing 6” system is currently in place providing service at pressures on the higher end of the system’s 15-60 PSI range.

Introduction of any proposed improvements to/extensions of natural gas service to the site

• Cost, timing and funding responsibility of any improvements required to provide proposed service to the site

• 6” line extension is likely to come from Orlando and County Highway U due to more available capacity relative to the line at Orlando and Packerland; would take 3 to 6 months and cost between $70,000 and $100,000
• End user demand-based credits from WPS could offset the cost to fund the service line extension

Proximate water and wastewater infrastructure availability and capacities

• Village of Hobart Water has a 12” water line in place at the airport emergency response station, located near the airport runway less than one mile from the site boundary; Village of Hobart purchases water supply from the Village of Ashwaubenon system, and there is reportedly ample capacity to supply industrial development in this area
• Village of Hobart Sanitary has an 8” wastewater system terminating ~1.5 miles southeast of the site; Green Bay region’s NEWWater sets service prices for municipalities to apply to end users

Introduction of any proposed improvements to/extensions of water and/or wastewater service to the site

• Village proposes water service to the site by extending a loop by which to connect distribution north of the airport and south of the airport along County Highway GE; the village estimates this loop extension will cost ~$850,000 and require ~6 months
• Extension of an 8” wastewater line to the site would reportedly require installation of a lift station ~1700’ east of the site at a total cost of $440,000 and estimated time
  of ~6 months.
