Density Study Summary for Rezone # 7054, Wolf October 1997 Public Hearing The land being considered for rezone was under the ownership of Frederick Wolf at the time of A-1 Ex adoption by the Town of Mazomanie (3/29/79), consisting of approximately 120 acres (see map). The 80 acres on the south side of Hudson Road have been annexed to the Village of Mazomanie. On the remaining 40 acres, no splits have occurred. Communication with staff from Dane County Regional Planning Commission indicates that the Town Land Use Plan for Mazomanie does not refer to annexation of lands and its relevance to density issues. Staff from zoning and property records have come to the conclusion that no splits have occurred on the land in the village of Mazomanie, consisting of 77.5 acres. This land was annexed to the village in August 1996. There is an existing area on the northern 40 acres in the Town of Mazomanie that is zoned RH-1 (Rez#2328 - date of rezone September 15, 1979), which became effective after the Town adopted exclusive agriculture. It appears from the aerial photos that a home is located within the RH-1 zoned area. There are two possible scenarios in this case. The first would be to only include the northern 40 acres for calculating possible splits, which would allow one split, without accounting for the 80 acres lying in the Village of Mazomanie. The second possible scenario would be to look at all 120 acres, both in the Township and in the Village, which according to Tom Smiley (see RPC staff comments) would allow for three residential lot divisions in total.
