Town of Springfield DANE COUNTY, WISCONSIN Springfield Planning Committee Springfield Town Hall Tues. , November 19, 1991 at 8:30 P.M. The meeting was called to order by M. Nolen, Chairman at 8:30 P.M. Minutes were read and approved on a motion by Endres/Derengowski. M. Nolen reported as to the progress of the updating of the land use plan. Drafts are available for checking out at the Town Hall. Contact the Clerk. Everyone was encouraged to attend the public hearing scheduled for Dec. 4, 1S at 7:30 P.M. at the Town Hall . Dave Benish, a representative for Black Hawk Council of Girl Scouts requested a rezone of Council property (Camp Brandenburg) in Section 6 from A-1 Exclusive to RE-1 . Current zoning does not comply with use. The land is currently exempt, so the tax base would not be affected. A lengthy discussion followed. The planning committee was concerned should a future sale be made, RE-1 could accomodate many other uses. Mr. Benish assured the P.C. that a sale was not at all in the future. The public present recommended that a conditional use be attached to the zoning to further assure that should a sale become reality the new owner would have to again approach the Board before "use" could be changed. It was also noted that as it stands now A-1 does not accurately fit the property either, as it has not been farmed in 40+ years . A motion was made by D. Endres to rezone the 178 acres from A-1 to RE-1 with a conditional use permit attached for use as a Girl Scout camp; with any future owner being subject to the same restrictions. Second D. Derengowski. Motion carried. Martin Thesfeld, 7694 Schneider Rd. , requested a zone change for 11 acres in Section 31 from A-1 to Residential . Due to his age and his wifes ' health care he now finds it necessary financially to sell. Discussion followed. The planning committee noted that the parcel does fit the suggested land use plan due to the fact that it is adjacent to an already existing sub- division. However, it was agreed that more detailed plans in regards to development (traffic pattern, lot size, etc. ) were needed. No decision could be obtained at the present time. Wm. Meinholz expressed concern over more housing in an area where he already finds it difficult to eliminate farming waste. It was recommended that Mr. Thesfeld take into account comments heard both positive and negative and obtain professional help in developing a plan for the parcel in question. Decision deferred until a later date when a detailed plan is submitted. Vern Acker, a realtor representing Larry & Karen Meinholz, 6771 CTH K in Section 26 inquired as to the feasibility of creating and rezoning a new 5 acre parcel off an existing 40 acre A-1 parcel. The 5 acre parcel would include the buildings and be zoned residential. Discussion followed. Concerns were expressed over access from Hwy. K to the remaining 35. The 35 acres would be a non-buildable parcel. The planning committee suggested that it would be more suitable to sell the parcel with its ' current zoning. It was decided that beginning in January of 1992 the planning committee meetings would be held the first Tues. of the month. Sherri En Motion to adjourn at 9:30 P.M. Statz/Endres Carried. Clerk
