6 The 2015 DFIRM indicates Zone A floodplain on the Subject Site. No manure bins or manure storage shall be located in the wetlands or floodplain. Accessory Structures During the 2020 CUP application process, Mr. Stowe stated he had three (3) outside horse shelters approximately 10ft x 20ft each. Per Resolution No. 20-144, the maximum numbers of shelters allowed on the Subject Site is six (6). This would equate to 1,200 sf total (10ft x 20ft = 200sf x 6 shelters = 1,200sf total). The shelters are specific accessory structures associated with the operation of a commercial stable. The property owner’s CUP amendment and variance land use application states the property owner owns additional horse shelters over 8,000 sf which exceeds the allowed square footage per the approved 2020 CUP. The applicant did correct this statement. There are currently 5 shelters totaling approximately 1,000 sf. This is compliant with the 2020 CUP. Per the University of Minnesota Extension website, a 240 sf (12 x 20ft) open-front shelter is ideal for two (2) horses. An additional 60 sf (10 x 6 ft) is required for each additional horse. A zoning or building permit is required for any accessory structure construction. All structures shall meet setback requirements and shall not be located in the front yards of any parcel or in wetlands or floodplain. Signage Per Chapter 1010: Signs, one sign with a maximum size of 6 square feet placed at least 10 feet from the property line is allowed without a permit. Conditional Use Permit (CUP) Amendment Request Per the Applicant’s Narrative Letter, the property owner is seeking the following City approvals: 2. Amended Conditional Use Permit. Applicant seeks issuance of an amended conditional use permit reflecting that fifty (50) animal units may be retained on the Property. Applicant requests that the amended permit excise prior condition number 12, requiring that “PID #05-31-22-22-003 and PID #05-31-22-22-0005 shall be combined with Anoka County.” The City Attorney and City staff recommend the conditional use permit (CUP) for the Commercial Stable allow for a maximum of 12.5 animal units or 25.0 animal units on the Subject Site (3 parcels) with conditions listed in Resolution No.21-67. A separate variance could be approved to double the number of animal units from 25.0 to 50.0. In the event the variance was revoked, the CUP for 12.5 or 25.0 animal units could still be valid if all conditions were being met. This would be to the benefit of the property owner. • Resolution No. 20-129 and Resolution No. 20-144 Approving A Conditional Use Permit for Commercial Stables at 426 Pine Street
