<br /> <br />Narrative for 10205 201st Ave NW, Elk River, MN <br />Terrence (Terry) Nowak <br />763-744-8833 <br />Detailed Description/Scope of the Project Add a 60’ x 144’ pole building to this 25 acre property. <br />• What is being proposed? <br />o Per the ordinance, I am allowed (2) accessory buildings on this 25 acre property. I am asking for an ordinance <br />amendment to allow for a 3rd accessory 60’ x 144’ building. <br />• What are the reasons/purpose for the proposed Ordinance Amendment? <br />o My plans for this 3rd accessory building is to use it for storage and repair work on my collection of historical farm <br />tractors, implements and small construction equipment. <br />o The existing (2) accessory buildings are in good repair and structural sound and therefore I do not want to tear <br />them down to accommodate the ordinance. <br /> The 30’x 50’ pole building would be used long term to house the animals. <br /> The 24’ x 24’ detached garage would be used long term to house some of my collection. <br />o With adding the 3rd accessory building, the square footage of accessory buildings will be approx. 10800 ft^2 (32% <br />less than maximum allowed). <br />What has changed to warrant the Ordnance Amendment? <br />• I purchased the property in July 2014 under the belief that the property was zoned 101-Ag (per the counties Beacon <br />Property Search website) and in researching that with the county, it I was clear to me that I had complete freedom to build <br />any buildings. <br />• Since purchasing the property, I have unknowingly brought it into compliance with the city ordinance. The following <br />structures were removed: (1) 12’ x 50’ mobile home, (4) ~30’ x 100’greenhouses and a 6’ x 12’ small shed. <br /> <br />• What are the benefits to the city? Increase the tax base for the property. <br /> <br /> <br />
