'.... Minority Report January 22, 1998 This zoning request should be denied. It violates the Town of Pleasant Springs Land Use Plan. It also violates the Dane County Land Use Plan since all town plans are incorporated with and become part of the Dane County Plan. In particular, it violates the policy of one residence per 35 acres of farm land owned as of June 6, 1978. For some reason we went down the path of a farm residence on land zoned A-1 EX. The petitioners requested a rezone of acreage currently zoned A-2. The requested zoning was for A-2(2) for 2 acres of a 26 acre parcel and A-1 EX for the remaining 24 acres of the 26 acre parcel. The stated intent was to combine the remaining 24 acres with another 35 acres already owned by the petitioners. This would create a 59 acre parcel zoned A-1 EX and a 2 acre parcel zoned A-2(2). Further, the petitioners stated they intended to build a house on the land now zoned A-1 EX. When advised that this would not be allowed due to the Town Land Use Plan the petitioners indicated that the Dane County Zoning Department had told them they could build on A-1 EX land. There was also a caution to the petitioners that they would have to meet the income requirement of Dane County Ordinances. The Town Plan Commission and the Town Board felt the County was advising the petitioners that they could build on A-1 EX regardless of what the Town said. The September 17, 1997 letter written by Kenneth Schuck and Berniece Rein (attached) was an attempt to clarify the concerns of the Town Board and their understanding of the advice provided by the County Zoning Department to the petitioners. Note the last two sentences in our first paragraph, which indicated the belief the Town had no way to stop the building of a second home. That letter addressed concerns about the income requirements of Dane County Ordinances and the density provisions of the Land Use Plan.
