COMPOSITE REPORT - Page 2 Dane County Application Nom .Z7 ANALYSIS: STAFF COMMENTS; Regional Planning Commission (R.P.C,) — Petition 5467. This proposed residential rezoning is in an agricultural preservation area of the Town of Roxbury. The R-1 parcel was created prior to plan adoption where it does not count in the one lot per 35 acres density policy. The soils are generally less productive and much of the site is wooded; however , granting the RH-4 rezoning would allow two lots since the parcel is 39 acres. The RH-4 minimum parcel size is 16 acres. Thus, a building site could be allowed on the parcel by policy, but not two. In addition, because there is already a house on the R-1 parcel , allowing a rezone for an additional house anywhere on the 39 acres could cause conflicts In some locations, particularly in terms of access. For these reasons there should be a specific site agreed upon prior to granting the rezoning. Environmental Health Dept. (E.H.D.) — W/S DOT The Department of Transportation is considering a major reconstruction of USH 12 in the vicinity of the request. At the current time we, together with our consultant, Ayres Associates, and public input, have not determined the precise alignment and therefore cannot say with certainty to what degree the subject parcel will be inpacted. It is, however, doubtful if any new access points will be allowed by our department.
