COMPOSITE REPORT - Page 2 APPLICATION NO. STAFF COMMENTS ZONING REVIEW Petition 7272 Don Zeman(Richard Bannen,agent),Dane 14-A-1EX to M-1 Bannen proposes to buy 1.8 acres of Zeman's 145 acre farm. The rezone parcel is located at the intersection of CTH's P and V and realigned STH 113,about 1/4 mile West of the Village of Dane. 1.22 acres of this piece is a`remnant'non-conforming part of the SW SW of Section 14—that is, it was created by the road realignment,and requires rezoning and a CSM to become a legal parcel. The other 0.59 acres is"land already in use for highway purposes"- -perhaps excess road right-of-way which the State&/or County routinely deeds back to adjacent property owners after completion of a project. Bannen wishes to start a new"metal,structural,ornamental railing fabrication"business,and would also "be doing farm repair on farm equipment." He would have 5-10 employees. He plans to build a 90'x125' 2-bay fabrication shop with 21' clearance and room for offices;this would be connected to a 60'x100'+- storage addition. Soils: Uses: 80%Pasture, 20%Other(old road bed) REGIONAL PLANNING Petition 7272. This proposed welding and manufacturing business location appears to conflict with town/county agricultural policies in the Town of Dane. The proposed site is a remnant parcel as a result of the recent reconstruction of this intersection of STH 113 and CTH P and V. It is approximately 1/2 mile west of the Village of Dane. The site is surrounded by farms and farmland. It is the other remnant parcel from the intersection reconstruction. The other parcel was recently rezoned(Petition 7181)for mini-warehouses. The relevant town/county policy for this area is: "Only such commercial and industrial development as is needed to support existing agricultural activities, where it will not result in environmental degradation or conflict with farming operations, will be allowed" The applicant has indicated that there will be some repair of agricultural equipment;however,it will be a judgment call of the town and county elected officials to determine what percentage of agricultural related work is required to satisfy the adopted policy. We note that the request is for M-1 Industrial,the most intensive uses allowed in the County Zoning Ordinance;thus,there would need to be specific conditions placed on the rezoning to preclude many incompatible uses. In addition,the application indicates fabricated steel as one of the products which could generate significant truck traffic. The application also indicates 5 to 10 employees,which is a further indication of the size and potential impacts of this proposed industrial use in this rural location. ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH ''(septic, etc.) DANE COUNTY HIGHWAY Petition 7272. Access control is restricted along the intersection of STH 113 by the State. Access should be relocated through an easement with adjacent property to keep access back from the intersection. Sighting an access may also be difficult due to terrain. Any changes to existing accesses or new accesses requires a permit.
