Public Hearing: February 23, 2016 Petition: Rezone 10936 <br /> ''\4 Report Zoning Amendment:Staff Re Town/sect: <br /> p A-1 EX Exclusive Agriculture Dane <br /> Corti- District to RH-1 Rural Homes Section 10 <br /> .' <br /> District <br /> Acres:3.18 Applicant <br /> Zoning and Land Regulation Committee Survey Req. Yes Kirking Survivor's TR, <br /> Reason: Jean B <br /> Separating existing residence Location: <br /> from farmland 7501 State Highway 113 <br /> A-1(EX) ... A-1(EX) <br /> To: RH-1 ... ;::: I!I <br /> DESCRIPTION: The petitioner would like to separate the farm buildings from the 38-acre property. <br /> OBSERVATIONS: There is an existing residence, two-car garage, hay barn, corn bins, and a cattle barn on the <br /> property. No other sensitive environmental features observed. The current configuration of buildings will easily <br /> support a small cattle operation. <br /> TOWN PLAN: The property is located in the Agricultural Preservation Area. The attached density study shows that <br /> there are 3 housing density rights allocated for the original 116-acre farm. The existing Kirking residence counts as <br /> one of these housing density rights. Given that there is another residence located on the original farm, one housing <br /> density right will remain on the original farm boundaries if approved. <br /> STATE HWY DEPT: Any new access, change of use, or updating current access to State Highway 113 will need <br /> approvals from Wisconsin DOT SW Region prior to change. Contact Permit Coordinator Scot Hinkle at 608-246-5334 <br /> for permitting information and forms. <br /> RESOURCE PROTECTION: The proposal is located outside the resource protection area. <br /> STAFF: The size of the proposed lot meets the 10% maximum building coverage requirement. No further buildings <br /> may be constructed on the property. Given the existing building configuration, Staff suggests that a zoning district <br /> classification of A-2(2) Agriculture be assigned to the property. The existing buildings could potentially be used for a <br /> small livestock operation or a limited family business. <br /> NOTE: A-2(2) Agriculture Zoning District permits one (1) animal unit per acre. A Conditional Use Permit needs to be <br /> obtained in order to keep a higher density of livestock on the property or operate a limited family business on the <br /> property. <br /> TOWN: Approved with no conditions. <br />
