Chairman
Board of Adjustment
MARK TRIEBOLD: Nelson states this is a request for a major home
occupation with a violation issued prior to this meeting. This
would be a special exception permit. Triebold states he has a
farm, machine shop workshop with his _brother. Property is zoned
kg -residential. Town of Somerset supports this request. Exhibit
#2 is a letter from one of his neighbors, who also supports the
request.
DAVID GREEN: Nelson states this is a request for a variance to
driveway separation. Town of Star Prairie supports the request.
Green states this is the only access to the land as it only has a
5V access. Ruth Johnson and Milton Johnson were sworn -in,
neighbors of property. Ask not to grant variance because purchaser
of property is possibly planning,a sub -division, as property lies
on lake. Nelson recommends a single-family residence be used with
driveway access. Donna Satterlund, agent for purchaser does not
know if property was ever surveyed. Stephens asks that Satterlund
go to register of deeds and finish this discussion at end of
meeting.
WARREN WOOD: Nelson states this is a request for a special
exception for filling and grading on lakebed. Nelson states the
Zoning office approves of the request. The Town of Star Prairie
