Zoning Committee Meeting April 3, 2001 Page 4 Motion made by Bohn to APPROVE Conditional Permit #1158 subject to Mr. Anderson selling only the wood furniture and he will be manufacturing. No commercial retail of any other items unless he gets the property rezoned to commercial. The outside display area size will be limited to 50'x100' with a 100' side yard setback from the neighbor to the east. Motion seconded by Wedin. CONDITIONAL PERMIT#1155—ERICKSON At last month's meeting, this conditional permit was granted with the condition that an existing boathouse was to be removed. Mr. Erickson wanted to address the Committee with new information that was not presented at last month's meeting. He wants to build a new storage building with a bunkhouse upstairs and put plumbing in it. He does not want to remove the boathouse. A new layout was shown with the proposed location of the new building. It was demonstrated that this property could be divided and the buildings stand on their own parcel. He has approximately 600' of shoreline on Class 2 Tabor Lake. Motion made by Peterson to AMEND Conditional Permit #1155 to allow this new storage building to be located in such a manner that it could stand on its own parcel and to allow the existing boathouse to remain. The storage building/bunkhouse will not be used as a residence or a rental building. Subject to all other permit requirements. Motion seconded by Bohn. Motion carried. - \ NORTON SURVEYING Mike Norton presented a preliminary plat on enzie Lake to the Committee. Tom Schaffer, the prospective buyer, was also present. The property is also coming up at the next county board rezone meeting. The rezone request is from RR-3 to RR-1. This plat has 6 proposed lots. The concerns discussed were the access road, floodplain and the cranberry dikes. Motion made by Peterson to approve this preliminary plat subject to obtaining access road approval, floodplain elevations, soil borings, and receiving a report from the Township. Motion seconded by Wedin. Motion carried. The Committee reviewed the other upcoming rezone in Swiss Township. OTHER BUSINESS A letter was received from Richard Lawrence regarding splitting some farmland and giving 20 acres to his son. The question was whether this would still qualify as exclusive ag land. Flanigan thought that it met the objections of the ordinance. He has talked to the Department of Ag. The intention of the ag zone is to keep the farm in the family. The Committee agreed with Flanigan and allowed this land to remain in exclusive ag. Flanigan noted that there are currently no provisions for a permit fee for a commercial and/or industrial accessory building.
