Mr. Larson requests to create a one acre homesite on this, his family's 100 acre farm, as part of a family arrangement to settle an estate.

Swenson (Landowner) - Zone change - Corner of Hwy 12-18 and CTH AB - Al Ex to C2 for 30 plus acres - For agricultural equipment and consumer products sales and service. Mr. Wadell accompanied Mr. Hansen for presentation to the committee. The Hansen's own Mid-State Equipment Company, a John Deere dealership at Columbus, WI. They would like to honor requests from Cottage Grove area farmers and establish a dealership on land currently owned by Olof Swenson at the southeast corner of Hwys AB and 12-18. The dealership would include agricultural equipment sales and service as well as lawn and garden and some light commercial construction equipment. He estimated the sales and service volume would be 50 percent agricultural and 50 percent non-ag. A survey and site plan were presented. Chairman Skaar suggested that two things needed to be done to accommodate this request. First, the Town's Long Range Plan, recently adopted by the Town Board and sent to the Dane County RPC for county approval, would have to be amended to designate the proposed area for commercial development. This had already been done by the Town Board, and was referred to the plan committee for recommendation as to what plan district and zoning classifications would be most appropriate. Second, approval of the appropriate zone change was required and could be sent through to the county for approval along with the Long Range Plan. Due to the fact that the business plans to deal in 50 percent non-ag, it was determined that the zoning required would be commercial (C2) rather than agribusiness (AB), and thus, the plan designation for the area would have to be Highway Business (HB) because our agribusiness plan designation does not include commercial use. Appearing in favor of the proposed changes included John O'Donnell from Feed-O-Matic, a complimentary agricultural business located adjacent on Hwy 12-18 and area farmer Duane Swalheim. No one appeared in opposition. Christoph expressed concern that the C2 zoning would also allow potential uses likely
