TO: Richard J.Phelps, Dane County Executive FROM: Jim Gregorius,Zoning Administrator RE: Rezoning #6392, Olson DATE: 27 Dec. 95 Research on the Rezoning petitions#6392 has indicated the following: The Hommen farm as it existed in 1979 when the Town adopted the Plan for the area indicates that total acreage was 187.8 acres. This would account for the figure placed on the application and noted during the County Board meeting. This total acreage included two areas separate from each other,one of 162.9 acres and one of 24.9 acres. In 1986 this total acreage was split with the 162 acres going to Ronald Hommen and the remaining 24 acres being retained by Roger Hommen. This transaction can be looked at as the first split of the acreage if the 187 acres is considered. Since the parcels were already separate and were zoned A-1 Exclusive by blanket zoning no rezoning was undertaken and nor was it required in order to achieve the separation. Since 1986 one Certified Survey has created 3 lots out of the 162 acre piece and a second Certified Survey Map created 1 lot in 1994, all of these four parcels are less than 35 acres. In addition the remaining parcel has been divided into two ownership's each over 35 acres. Mr. Olson now owns one of the Certified Survey Lots and the largest remaining parcel,a portion of the remaining parcel is what is under consideration in petition 6392. Of the original 187 acres there are now 7 parcels. 2 of these parcel are over 35 acres, 1 is 31 acres(was rezoned in 1994 and has a restrictive Covenant for no further divisions), 1 which was separate in 1986 is 24 acres,and the remaining 3 are less than 5 acres each(were rezoned in 1991). If the 162 acre parcel is only considered there are now 6 parcels. 2 of these parcel are over 35 acres, 1 is 31 acres (was rezoned in 1994 to RH-4 and has a Restrictive Covenant for no further divisions),and the remaining 3 are less than 5 acres each(were rezoned in 1991). If you have any further question concerning the status of this property please contact me at your convenience.
