Community Conversations: New subdivisions can be environmentally friendly
By Kevin Struck
Residential growth itself has many benefits, but nearby residents will often oppose a new subdivision if it brings negative impacts to their neighborhood and the environment.
While a small number of developers within Sheboygan County have incorporated environmentally friendly conservation principles into their projects, a new subdivision deserves high praise for taking the protection of natural features to a higher level.
WindMor on county Highway Y in the Town of Sheboygan is on its way to becoming a renowned example of how the special features of a property can coexist harmoniously with development.
WindMor is a 76-acre rolling property that has been in the Rahn family since the 1880s. The property borders the Town & Country Golf Course and the Pigeon River. The subdivision's developer, Windridge Homes of Sheboygan, worked hard to disturb as little of the site as possible.
About half of the subdivision, including a nine-acre virgin oak and beech forest, will remain undeveloped as common green space with walking paths, a naturalized "wet" meadow and restored forest land for WindMor residents to enjoy.
Town of Sheboygan officials and residents have expressed a desire to retain as much of their shrinking rural character as possible.
WindMor reflects this goal and then some.
Because the terrain was preserved and building sites were carefully located on the property, the subdivision will barely be visible from adjacent roadways.
Windridge Homes and its engineer, Miller Engineers & Scientists of Sheboygan, put extraordinary effort into ensuring that the subdivision limits harm to natural features, promotes on-site infiltration of precipitation without storing water in unattractive artificial ponds, and buffers the impact of the home sites from neighboring uses.
According to Miller engineer John Sigwart, "What we've done at WindMor is so beyond the norm that we had to carefully select contractors who wanted to meet our standards.
"It's a lot of extra work and in some cases extra expense. But, in the long-term, we feel it's worth it."
The conservation strategy at WindMor began with marking off areas to be preserved.
Layout of home sites and street locations came second. This ensured that preservation of the best features was a priority, not an afterthought.
Unlike many subdivisions where vegetation is stripped away and the land is graded flat, clearing and grading were minimized at WindMor. This practice, along with preserving soils suited for infiltration, decreasing the standard amount of paved surfaces and requiring rain barrels and rain gardens on each building site will improve the quality of storm water runoff and promote groundwater recharge.
The site will also benefit from a landscaping plan that emphasizes the removal of invasive species and the planting of species native to Sheboygan County.
As a professional planner and a resident of Sheboygan County, I applaud the Town of Sheboygan and the innovative development team for these efforts. Subdivisions like WindMor will provide for sustainable growth while enhancing the natural amenities of Sheboygan County.
