Ashwaubenon, WI Parking Rules: Driveway Rules (2026)

Chapter 17-6-600(D)(1) of the Village Code sets front-yard standards for the Industrial Park district specifically, not the village as a whole. No building can sit closer than 35 feet from the front parcel line, and that entire 35-foot strip must be graded and either sodded or seeded to produce a lawn, except for the areas actually needed for driveways, visitor parking or walks. Employee parking is barred outright anywhere within that 35-foot band at all times. Visitor or customer parking may be carved into the setback, but only if the site plan review committee approves it, and even then the parking cannot come within 17 feet of the curb and gutter line.

Once a driveway is allowed, it cannot be left as gravel or dirt: the code requires every driveway be surfaced in asphaltic concrete/pavement or concrete pavement running the full distance from the village street to the front building face, and walks must be concrete pavement as well. The Village gives new occupants a deadline to finish this work, not an open-ended grace period: all landscaping, drives and walks required by this section must be completed within one year after the building is occupied. Because this standard sits inside the district-specific site design article (17-6-600), it governs the Industrial Park district's own front-yard treatment rather than residential driveways elsewhere in the village, so a homeowner outside IP should check the standards for their own district rather than assume this 35-foot figure applies to them.
