Planning Commission / CU 06-08 May 9, 2006 Page 2 Attachments • Cover Sheet • Location Map Memo from Environmental Administrator Applicants Narrative and Attachments Overview In December of 2004, the City Council approved an Ordinance Amendment which increased the number of agricultural animals, to no more than twice currently allowed, provided there is an approved manure management plan following the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency Technical Guidelines for Manure Management and Applications and a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). The applicant is requesting a CUP to have 15 horses on a 10-acre site. They axe proposing an 8-acre pasture area on the western 2/3 of the property. This area could allow fox up to 16 horses with a CUP. There is a one acre manure management site proposed to be located in the northeast portion of the site with additional land area within the 8-acre pasture area. They have put together a manure management plan which does meet Minnesota Pollution Control Agency Technical Guidelines for Manure Management and Applications. The applicant's narrative (with this CUP) discusses the desire to build and operate a riding arena also. Since the time of the application submittal, it was realized that the size of the property was reduced from 10-acres to approximately 9.8-acres. This was due to the fact that Sherburne County obtained additional right-of--way along the eastern portion of the site for their County Road 13 project. The applicant will be applying for a variance to the allowable Accessory Structure size. At 10-acres, they could build an 8,000 sgft building. Once they are in the 5 to 10-acre size, they can only build a 4,000 sgft building. Standards for Issuance of a Conditional Use Permit (Section 30-654) The issuance of a Conditional Use Permit can be ordered only if the use at the proposed location: 7. Will not endanger, injure or detrimentally affect the use and enjoyment oj~otherproperty in the immediate vicinity or the public health, safety, morals, comfort, convenience orgeneral welfare of the neighborhood or the city. 2. Will be consistent with the comprehensive plan. 3. Will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of surrounding vacant property. 4. Will be served adequately by and will not adversely affect essential public facilities and services including streets, police and fireprotection, drainage, refuse disposal, water and seaa~er systems, parks and schools; and will not, in particular, create tragic congestion or interference with traffic on adjacent and neighboring public thoroughfares.
