COMPOSITE REPORT - Page 2 APPLICATION NO. <br /> STAFF COMMENTS <br /> REGIONAL PLANNING <br /> Petition 6045. This proposed parcel division is in an agriculture preservation area of the Town of <br /> Albion. The area between Goede Road and the interstate is designated as a rural non-farm area <br /> and allows two acre lots; however, all lands west of Goede Road are designated agricultural <br /> preservation area. <br /> The relevant town/county policy is: <br /> Non farm residential development in Agricultural Preservation areas will be <br /> restricted to land with soils not classified as prime farmland or farmland of <br /> statewide importance (as shown on maps)providing the lot is one (1) acre or more <br /> at a density of one lot per 40 acres within a farm unit and is rezoned from <br /> agriculture. <br /> Thus, with six acres, this parcel was zoned RH-2 several years ago. The policy makes no <br /> provision for such a further division. <br /> Even the revised Town Plan, currently under county review, continues to designate this area as <br /> agricultural preservation, and has a density policy of one lot per 35 acres. <br /> Thus, this proposal conflicts with adopted town/county policy. <br /> ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH (septic. etc.) <br /> DANE COUNTY HIGHWAY <br /> OTHER <br />
