(represented by owner Paul Huggett), Sun Prairie 24 <br /> A-1EX to R-3A <br /> Create a 1.21 acre parcel to build a duplex residence for"2 farm employees and their families." The <br /> duplex will be"on a hill with poor soil...on the edge of an odd forty"and will use an existing gravel <br /> driveway for access to Ridge Road. The houses on the adjacent RH-2 lots to the East are"on the other <br /> side of a steep hill with woods." The farm is <br /> 213 acres. <br /> Soils: 100%Class III <br /> Uses: 100%Cropland <br /> REGIONAL PLANNING <br /> Petition 7353. This proposed duplex for farm employees appears generally consistent with the adopted <br /> town/county agricultural policy in the Town of Sun Prairie. The policy is: "The uses of land permitted in <br /> the agricultural preservation district will be primarily limited to agricultural production and dwelling units <br /> which serve as the places of residence for owners and employees of the farm." <br /> The plan does not have any specific policy for a duplex. Therefore the policy question is whether the units <br /> are justified for farm employees. The location of the site appears to meet the plan criteria for such a site. <br /> There is a gravel access drive along the RH-2 parcel to the north where it leads onto Ridge Road. The <br /> proposed duplex site does not require direct public road access since it will remain part of the farm, and is <br /> not proposed as a separate lot. <br /> ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH (septic, etc.) <br /> DANE COUNTY HIGHWAY <br /> OTHER <br />
