Supervisors:, Brian Hurtgen, Lois Burri, and Buck Malick were present. Jan Zoerb, Wally Habhegger and

and Debbie Murphy.
The meeting was called to order at 8:30 a.m. The agenda was adopted. The next meeting is April 5, 2006.
Minutes: Burri/Habhegger moved to approve the following minutes: October 11, November 8, 28 & 29,
December 13 (2), January 10, February 14. Motion carried.
Major and Minor Subdivisions
Minor Subdivisions: See attachment A:
Major Subdivisions: See attachment B:
Bills/Invoices/Revenue: Burri has reviewed and approved the bills and revenues for February 2006.
Rezoning schedule: Bezek explained that April 5` is scheduled for the next rezoning hearing. There
will be three rezonings that night, and three waivers. The rezoning hearing night in May is the 17`
Municipal plats: None
Gerry Schoen: Bezek explained that his is a rezoning request that was tabled on March 8` in order to get
a recommendation from the Town of Pleasant Valley. The town has now recommended approval of the
request to rezone 40 acres from Ag to Ag/Residential. The applicant owns approximately 80 acres he
wishes to rezone to Ag- residential to divide off into 3 - 12 to 14 acre parcels zoned ag- residential and
leave the remaining 40 acre parcel zoned agricultural. There currently are no homes on the 80 acres. The
Town's new subdivision standards allow for a density of 2 lots per 40 acres. Schoen is taking advantage
of a provision in the Town ordinance that allows transferring density to an adjacent 40 acre parcel.
Discussion held. Motion by Malick, second by Hurtgen to recommend approval to the County Board
based on the following findings:
1. The parcel is in the rural planning area and is an appropriate use.
2. The proposed use is consistent with minimum lot size requirements in the rural planning
area.
3. The request is consistent with the surrounding neighborhood, countryside or terrain.
4. The proposed use has minimal potential to adversely impact stormwater management.
5. The proposed use has minimal potential to adversely impact water resources with
sedimentation resulting from erosion.
6. The proposed use has little potential to adversely impact shoreland areas or wetlands and
closed depressions located in shoreland areas.
7. The proposed use will not adversely impact closed depressions or wetlands.
8. The proposed use is consistent with policies to preserve woodlands, prairie remnants,
unique open spaces, or environmental corridors.
9. The request does protect and preserve agricultural land.
10. The proposed use is generally consistent or not in conflict with the St. Croix County
Natural Resources Management Plan.
1
11. The Town of Pleasant Valley has recommended approval and identified that the proposed
use is in compliance with WSS 91.77.
12. The request is consistent with the spirit and intent of applicable County Land Use
Ordinances.
With the following condition:
1. Prior to the issuance of a building permit or occupancy permit for a use on the rezoned
parcel, the landowner shall cause a certified survey map to be made of the property and
filed with the register of deeds.
J ob Descriptions and Springsted Study: Fodroczi reported that the liaison group met last week to go
over the supervising structure now in place for personnel, and will be meeting with the consultant
tomorrow. The job descriptions will be brought to the committee in the future
Discussion of Land and Water Conservation plat review services: Fodroczi and Bezek have met with
Bob Heise about this, and Heise will start the re -hiring process. Staff will keep the committee updated.
Approval of CSM's/Treasurer's Certificate: Cheryl Slind, St. Croix County Treasurer, joined the
group and handed out a memo to the committee from Corporation Counsel regarding Treasurer's
Certificates. In order to require this certificate, an amendment would be needed to the Subdivision
Ordinance. Discussion held.
Motion by Malick, second by Burri to modify the ordinance to include wording on the Treasurer's
Certificate for plats.
Fee Schedule Amendment: Bezek went over the proposed changes to the current fee schedule. The
following changes are being proposed: Land Use Permits in conjunction with another permit to be $50
rather than $300; Administrative Appeal Action to be $400; After - the -fact doubling fee to take place only
after enforcement action is commenced in writing. Discussion held.
Motion by Malick, second by Hurtgen to accept the proposed amendments to the fee schedule. Motion
carried on a unanimous vote.
Land Use Ordinance Amendments: Fodroczi asked that the committee take no action on this until
possibly June. There are several things to be looked at, and need to have a discussion on how to proceed
with the changes. Will discuss this further in May.
Meeting adjourned at 10:50 a.m.
