APPLICATION FOR VARIANCE <br />11631 219TH AVE NW <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br />I am requesting a variance for an agriculture building (+-) 64’ x 60’. Currently building this building <br />would be more covered square footage than currently allowed per zoning. <br />My property is approx 15 acres with a Commercial Zoned building on the Southwest corner of the <br />property. It’s approximately 6,700 sq. feet used as a licensed Dog Kennel. There is another outbuilding <br />that will be torn down when this building is finished. I am requesting permission to put up an additional <br />building on the Southeasterly corner of my property that’s approximately 3840 sq. feet to be used <br />primarily for agricultural use. This would leave the whole Northerly section available for agricultural <br />(orchard, garden…)use. <br />The properties directly to the North, East and West are all mining (gravel Pits) and the property to the <br />South is GreenScapes a landscaping business and the ERX Racetrack. My building would not cause <br />conflict with any of my neighbors. <br />My intent is to start a fruit orchard so the building would primarily be used to house farming equipment <br />and supplies. <br />I don’t believe this building will alter the essential character of the property. <br />Thank you for your consideration. <br />Regards, <br />Timothy Thomsen <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
