CROX UNTY AMENDMENT TO THE COMPREHENSIVE ZONING ` ORDINANCE - TOWN OF BALDWIN -KETCHUM PROPERTY COVER MEMO TO: County Board of Supervisors FROM: Patrick Thompson, County Administrator Ellen Denzer, Director, Community Development DATE: August 20, 2015 AGENDA ITEM: Amendment to the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance - Town of Baldwin - Ketchum Property BACKGROUND INFORMATION Brooks Ketchum, 2351 Rosewood Lane, owns a 4.98 acre lot Section 33, T29N, R16W, Town of Baldwin that is currently zoned Rural Residential. He has applied to rezone the parcel from the Rural Residential District (RR) to AG-2 Agricultural District. Originally, Ketchum owned a 1.98 acre parcel that was zoned Agricultural Residential (now known as Rural Residential). He then acquired an additional 3.0 acres (also zoned Agricultural Residential) from an adjoining property owner and created a 4.98 acre lot through the Certified Survey Map (CSM) process in compliance with the County's Chapter 13, Land Division Ordinance. In 2013 St. Croix County amended its agricultural districts through a comprehensive revision to its Land Use Ordinances in order to bring the agricultural districts into conformance with the newly created Farmland Preservation rules in Wisconsin State Statutes (WSS) Chapter 91. As part of this process, the County was required to create a Farmland Preservation Plan (FPP) map that indicated all of the Farmland Preservation Areas for each town. Ketchum's original 1.98 acre parcel was not included in a certified Farmland Preservation Area, due to the small size of the parcel. The 3.0 acres that Ketchum purchased to create the new 4.98 acre lot was included in a Farmland Preservation Area. Since 3/5 of the 4.98 acre lot now qualifies for Farmland Preservation zoning, both the Town of Baldwin and St. Croix County determined that this property could be zoned AG-2 (Agricultural-2 District). The Town supports the rezoning. The application, land use map and staff report are attached providing background, analysis and staff recommendation. A Class II notice was published in both the Baldwin Bulletin and the New Richmond News on August 6 and August 13, 2015, establishing a public hearing for the Community Development Committee meeting at 6 p.m. on August 20, 2015 in the County Board Room at the Government Center, Hudson.

Ketchum Agent: N/A Site Address: 2351 Rose Lane Town: Baldwin File #: RZ88598 Legal Description: SW I/4 of the NE I/4 of Section 33, T29N, R16W Total Acres: 4.98 acres Current Zoning: Rural Residential District Requested Zoning: AG-2 Agricultural District Attachments: 1 . Application 2. Land Use Map BACKGROUND: Purpose of Request Brooks Ketchum owns a 4.98 acre lot that is currently zoned Rural Residential. Originally, Ketchum owned a 1.98 acre parcel that was zoned Agricultural Residential (now known as Rural Residential). He then acquired an additional 3.0 acres also zoned Agricultural Residential) from an adjoining property owner and created a 498 acre lot through the Certified Survey Map (CSM) process in compliance with theme ' County's Chapter 13, Land Division ordinance. In 2013 St. Croix County amended its agricultural districts through a comprehensive revision to its Land Use Ordinances in order to bring the agricultural districts into conformance with the newly created Farmland Preservation rules in Wisconsin State Statutes (WSS) Chapter 91. As part of this process, the County was required to create a Farmland Preservation Plan (FPP) map that indicated all of the Farmland Pre_servatioLITICIas r each town. The FPP maps were created to give a visual representation o which properties within a town were eligible to be in a certified Farmland Preservation agricultural district as determined by the LESA scores. Ketchum's original 1.98 acre parcel was not included in a certified Farmland Preservation Area, due to the small size of the parcel. The 3.0 acres that Ketchum purchased to create the new 4.98 acre lot was included in a Farmland Preservation Area. Since 3/5 of the 4.98 acre lot now qualifies for Farmland Preservation zoning, both the Town of Baldwin and St. Croix County determined that this property could be zoned AG-2 (Agricultural-2 District) since it is consistent with Farmland Preservation policies and also with all surrounding properties in the area. Prepared by St. Croix County Community Development Department 1 August 20, 2015 RZ88598 When the County submitted all of the new zoning maps, agricultural district zoning ordinances and other required information to the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP) for certification of the ag�ricultural districts, DATCP stated that the original 1.98 parcel did not qualify for Farmland Preservation Area and refused to allow the 4.98 acre lot to be zoned into a certified agricultural district based on the maps that it used for determination. DATCP then stated that after the County's agricultural zoning districts were certified, then the entire lot could be rezoned into one of the County's agricultural districts if staff determined that the property would qualify. After the County's agricultural districts were certified by DATCP, staff then worked with Ketchum regarding rezoning the lot into the AG-2 District, as allowed. G ote If Ketchum had completed the purchase of the additional 3.0 acres and creation f '`� o the 4.98 acre lot before the completion of the Farmland Preservation Area map (FPP map) the entire 4.98 acres would have been included in the Farmland Preservation Area and thus qualified for certified Farmland Preservation zoning. This would have allowed the lot to have been rezoned to the AG-2 District as part of the County's Comprehensive revision to the Agricultural Districts in the Ordinance that took effect October 1, 2014. But, Ketchum purchased the additional 3.0 acres after the FPP map was finalized and before the completion of certified Farmland Preservation zoning. No new structures or uses are planned at this time. There are three small agricultural- related businesses operating on this site, all of which qualify within the AG-2 zoning district. General Features of the Property Based on the Official County Zoning Map for the Town of Baldwin this parcel (noted by red arrow) is bounded by properties zoned AG-1, and Rural Residential.

The map does not show specific or exact locations, rather general areas of possible land use changes. There are three future land use categories: Mixed Rural, Commercial and Industrial. They are described as follows: Mixed Rural: The existing primary land use in the Town of Baldwin that will continue to occupy the majority of the landscape. It is characterized by large scale agriculture operations, hobby farms and very low density, small-lot rural residential development that is compatible with the agricultural economy of the Town of Baldwin and that does not negatively impact prime farmland, environmental areas, drainage areas or waterways. This land use is presently zoned both Exclusive Ag and Ag Residential. Based on population projections and the expected rate of development not all of this area wil be needed for rural residential development. The rate of this development will occur through the mino subdivision process." k. 1 d -(-je,x>--t----te.-O Prepared by St. Croix County Community Development Department 3 August 20, 2015 RZ88598 Town of Baldwin Future Land Use Map: 0) ,a m '4P UI sI Future Land Use Cane Town of aaldwin.

At this time, Brooks informed Dan that he wanted to be included in the Farm Preservation Zoning and be rezoned as Ag 2, as there are two eligible businesses operated on the property as stated in Section 17.145 A (2). We attend the Town of Baldwin Meeting on May 5, 2014, where the board approved the inclusion of 2351 Rose Lane in the Farmland Preservation Zoning Act, and the request for re- zoning to AG-2. At the end of August, we were told that we could proceed with expansions plans, and it was simply a formality that we would be included in the AG-2 rezoning. In February of 2015, we received a letter from the Community Development Department, stating that the state had rejected the inclusion of Parcel 002-1083-10-001 and notice of a public hearing on February 19, 2015. After a phone call to the Community Development Department, it was explained that: 1. The property of Brooks D Ketchum was original comprised of two parcels. Parcel 1 was 1.98 acres which was not eligible for the Farmland Preservation Zoning and Parcel 2, which was 3 acres, was eligible. It was assumed by St Croix County, The Town of Baldwin, and Mr. Ketchum, that when the parcels were merged and given a new PID number, the property would be eligible for rezoning to AG-2. Unfortunately, the State of Wisconsin did not view as such and rejected the request. 2. We were told that if Brooks D. Ketchum withdrew his request (so that the county request could be resubmitted to the State and then subsequently approved), the Zoning Department would assist with the rezoning to AG-2 for Mr. Ketchum with no costs except for those associated with the required statutory publication of the notice of the public hearing for rezoning. Please find the documentation attached for the rezoning of the property of Brooks D. Ketchum at 2351 Rose Lane, Woodville, WI 54028. We respectfully request your approval. Please do not hesitate to contact us at 715-977-2050, if you have any questions.

This letter is to inform you that at their regular board meeting on August 6, 2015 the Town of Baldwin board voted unanimously to support Brooks Ketchum's desire to re-zone 4.98 acres from Rural Residential to AG-2. This request was also reviewed and recommended for approval by the Town Planning Committee at their meeting on Tuesday, August 4, 2015. As you are aware this was first proposed and was approved by the town and county when the Farmland Preservation Plan was submitted and we hope will be approved by the State through this process.
