COMPOSITE REPORT - Page 2APPLICATION NO. 6259 STAFF COMMENTS REGIONAL PLANNING Petition 6259. The proposed rezoning is for expanding a residential lot and expanding a limited commercial area in the Town of Springfield. There is a contractor's shop on the existing LC-1 parcel. The proposed LC-1 expansion area is approximately 1 acre. There are single family homes on each of the parcels proposed for residential zoning; therefore,no additional residential development will result from the rezoning. The site is in a"Rural Center" designation of the recently adopted Town of Springfield Land Use Plan. The adopted town/county policy for this area(Ashton Corners) which is relevant to the commercial expansion is: "Commercial development which is not agri-business should be required to locate in areas designated as 'Rural Centers'on the Land Use Map." Since the site is in the "Rural Center" area, it appears to be consistent with adopted policy. We note also that other development at this intersection may be impacted by the proposed improvements to USH 12;however, the area within this zoning petition does not appear to be impacted. ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH (septic, etc.) - Any existing private sewage system(s)must remain on the same parcel with the dwelling served. DANE COUNTY HIGHWAY CTH"K"is a controlled access highway. This entire parcel is served by only one access point and is not entitled to any additional accesses. The different zoning could be a problem for this joint access. (See enclosed copy of controlled access map). OTHER None.
