Rob Hulbert—Land Transfers between neighbors Mr Hulburt owns a parcel located along the west side of Vilas Road just north of 5TH 12 being about 17 acres in size, zoned RH-4(Lot 3—CSM 9819). The land along Vilas road is wooded with very steep slopes. Mr Hulburt intends to build a residence and the land and will need to construct a driveway. After looking at options, it was determined that the best option was to contact neighbors to see if they were either willing to land swap or for selling for a potential route of a driveway that would not have such a major impact on the environment. Mr Hulburt contacted neighbors Henry Hanzel Jr.(Lot 1—CSM 9819)and Jeff and Sue Natvig(Lot2-CSM 9819)to work out said proposals. Mr Hanzel was interested in a land swap and the Natvig's were willing to sell a strip of land along the north side of field (See attached Figure). The said strip of land purchased from the Natvig's would allow access onto Vilas Road. Both neighbors have signed an letter of intent in agreement to scenario above. Mr Hulburt then made contact with the Town of Cottage Grove road patrolman to confirm that access to Vilas would be approved. He received a positive confirmation late in 2015. More Detail on transfer; The land swap between Mr Hulburt and Mr Hanzel will result in little change in overall on either parcel size thus no change in current zoning is required. The land sale from Natvig's to Mr Hulburt(0.631 acres) will result in a reduction of net acres on the remainder owned by the Natvig's (6.282 acres), forcing a rezone from RH-3 to RH-2. All final land divisions will be conducted by way of Certified Survey Map by a Professional Surveyor.
