Re: Variance Request to Section 18.16(D)(7)(g) to allow continuation of traffic
from a commercial development into a residential development.
Dear Mr. and Mrs. LaVenture:
The Planning, Zoning and Parks Committee approved your variance request to Section
18.16(D)(7)(g) on December 21, 1999. The variance was approved to allow a second
residential parcel to be created, which requires access through a commercial zoned
parcel based on the following findings:
1. The commercial business and the proposed residential home are all
owned by the same family. The applicant testified that they desire a new
home for the family for security reasons. To access the new home parcel,
the applicant must pass through the family commercial business.
2. The applicants have testified that they do not intend to develop any of
their surrounding land in the future. Access will only be used for this one
additional home and no others.
3. The access has been used since 1964 for a residential driveway for the
existing home. A new access is not being created.
4. There is a hardship present. Without this variance, there would be no
access to the home, and there is no other access to the property; there is
a railroad to the south, a state highway to the north and the Rod and Gun
Club to the east. The LaVentures would not be able to build a new home
for themselves if this variance is not approved.
5. The Town of Richmond supports the application.
6. The Wisconsin Department of Transportation has given conditional
approval of the application.
7. The approval is given for this access to be used for the existing home and
the proposed new home . No other residences may be built on the
parcel, which would require use of this access.
With the following conditions:
1. Applicant to meet all other St. Croix County ordinance and conditions with
the road access.
2. Applicant to follow all Wisconsin Department of Transportation
rules/provisions/conditions.

3. The variance will not be valid until the minutes of the meeting have been
reviewed and approved by the Planning, Zoning and Parks Committee.
4. No construction shall commence until the approval of the minutes of this
meeting.
Please note that the December 21, 1999 Planning, Zoning and Parks Committee
meeting minutes were approved on January 11, 2000. The approval of these minutes
was part of condition #3 and #4.
Please call our office with any questions.

Patricia Gage Shaw/Alan G. Jontz
Alan Jontz, being duly swom, stated that this is an existing ag/residential parcel and has been for a
number of years. There is an existing field drive that is being used for a driveway, and they would like
to upgrade it to be a permanent driveway. They plan to construct a year round residence on this
property. The existing driveway is 350 feet from the adjoining property owner's driveway.Jontz is asking
the Board for a 150 foot variance to the 500 foot minimum spacing requirement between driveways on
a State highway.
Jontz went on to explain that there is a second reason for wanting to keep the driveway where it is. Ms.
Shaw purchased the property in 1995 and then in 1996, entered into an agreement with the U.S. Fish
and Wildlife Service to plant native prairie grasses on the property. This was an expensive project and
2
in order not to disturb the plantings, they would like to keep the existing driveway. Moving the driveway
could destroy 1/2 to 1 acre of the replanted prairie.
The following exhibits were introduced:
Exhibit 1: Application for variance
Exhibit 2: Letter from the Town of Kinnickinnic recommending approval of variance
Exhibit 3: Letter from Dept. of Transportation stating that existing field entrance is safe for a
permanent driveway
Exhibit 4: Site plan showing location of field driveway and location for driveway that would meet the
setback requirements
Exhibit 5: Letter from Bob Hanson, Wildlife Technician with the Department of Natural Resources,
outlining contract with Ms. Shaw for planting of prairie grasses
Exhibit 6: Air photo of property
Exhibit 7: Staff report
Exhibit 8: Photo's showing existing driveway and sight distance on highway 65
Exhibit 9: Photo's showing proposed driveway and sight distana on highway 65
Mr. Jontz went over Exhibit 4 with the Board. The neighbor's driveway is 350 feet from the field driveway
and was constructed in 1997. The field driveway has been used on the Shaw property since 1996.
Jontz stated the field driveway has a safer sight distance when pulling out on the highway than if the
driveway were to meet the 500 foot setback sight requirements. He further stated that if safety is an
issue for the driveway setbacks, then he believes that the Board should consider granting the variance,
as the field driveway is the safest of the two locations. According to the letter from the Department of
Transportation, labeled as Exhibit 3, the site distances for the existing field driveway are better and the
existing driveway is the preferable one.
The Board will visit the site.
Larry and Virginia Coss
This application is for a special exception to construct a third residence on an agricultural parcel. Mike
Gerrits, being duly swom, is with Morton Buildings, Inc. and is the applicant.
The following exhibits were introduced:
Exhibit 1: Application for special exception
Exhibit 2: Letter from the Town of Pleasant Valley recommending approval of the application
Exhibit 3: Letter from Morton Buildings and Mr. Coss
Exhibit 4: Site plan of property showing structures
Exhibit 5: Copy of Sanitary permit for the new structure
Exhibit 6: Large scale plan showing property and structures
Exhibit 7: Site plan showing layout in greater detail
Exhibit 8: Staff report
Mr. Gerrits explained that the Coss family owns 360 acres near River Falls. They live in River Falls in
the summer and in St. Paul the remainder of the year. They own several very expensive horses that
are kept on this property. They have hired a caretaker and a stable hand intending that they would live
on the property to take care of the horses and the farm. There is already one apartment in one of the
pole buildings and they are requesting to put another apartment on the property in the new pole building.
The buildings are completely insulated and are up to the current codes. The Board reviewed the site
3
plans. Wert told Gerrits that there needs to be a firewall between the living space and the rest of the
building and there should be a window in the bedroom to meet the uniform dwelling codes.
The Board will visit the site.
The Board recessed at 9:25 a.m. to conduct site visit.
DECISIONS
The Board reconvened at 11:40 a.m. to render decisions.

driveway would be the safer place for a permanent driveway to be constructed. The
existing field driveway has a greater site distance to the east and the west than the
location at 500 feet from the neighbors driveway. This information was also received in
a letter from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation, labeled as Exhibit 3. Note:

must be followed.
