• P. • DRAFT—FOR DISCUSSION PURPOSES ONLY FINDINGS OF FACT: Regarding Petition# 7110, seeking to remove deed restrictions limiting the use of property in the Town of Roxbury to a seasonal mobile home park use, the Zoning and Natural Resources Committee finds the following: 1. Conversion of the property from seasonal to year-round use represents a significant change in the intensity of the land use. 2. Year-round use of the property is likely to lead to more and larger permanent structures, greater impervious surface area and significant changes in the hydrology, vegetation and character of the immediate shore area. 3. Without additional safeguards, these changes to the character of the immediate shore area would likely result in degraded water quality, increased risk of erosion and water pollution, loss of aquatic and wildlife habitat and negative impacts to the natural scenic beauty and the unique and sensitive environmental features of Fish Lake. 4. The fluctuating and uncertain water levels of Fish Lake could pose a hazard to permanent structures located near the shore. CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL: 1. Prior to the issuance of any further zoning or construction permits associated with this development, the applicant shall submit an erosion control and stormwater management plan approved by the state Department of Natural Resources and the County Land Conservation Department. Such plan shall address the following: a. Temporary construction site and ongoing erosion concerns; b. Temporary and ongoing stormwater quantity and quality; c. Post-development water quality; d. Minimization of runoff, siltation, nutrient loading and pollution into Fish Lake, and; e. To the extent practicable, the permanent restoration of a thirty-five (35) foot wide buffer of perennial natural vegetation along the shore. Such buffer shall be designed to effectively meet the purposes of section 11.04 (1) of the Dane County Code of Ordinances within 5 years. 2. No piers, wharves or boat hoists shall be constructed except in compliance with all applicable permits and guidelines of the state Department of Natural Resources. 3. The use shall be deed restricted to a mobile home park. No units shall be placed on permanent foundations. 4. No more than 100 mobile home units shall be located on the property. 5. The landowner agrees to use only sand or other non-reactive material, not salt, on roads in the winter and to limit the use of aquatic and terrestrial herbicides and pesticides.
