250 June 25, 1984 Mr. Kluegel pointed out the intent of the Task Force was not to prevent this business from expanding but the allowable uses in a NB area had been changed to eliminate this type of business thus making Mr. Grubbs a non - conforming operation and unable to expand. Mr. Karth pointed out that the existing pole building will be used for storage, at least part of the building - part of the building will be removed. The variance is concerned with the transfer of two small parcels of land in order to add to the existing property to bring into conformance with the existing ordinance. Mr. Reinert moved to approve the variance for the transfer of the two .parcels of land of less than the required 5 acres in order to bring the existing lot into conformance with the required square footage to include the Planning and Zoning Board's stipulations. Seconded by Mr. Bohjanen. Motion carried unanimously. There was a question as to the possibility of Mr. Grubbs purchasing the property to the west and Mr. Karth said this is not very likely. There was discussion on the rezoning of this parcel at the same time. Mr. Hawkins pointed out that all or any part of the land can be rezoned as long as it is all included in the notice. Mr. Reinert moved to set a public hearing to consider the rezoning of the Larry Grubbs property and the H. Noren property from NB & ER to GB. Seconded by Mr. Bohjanen. Motion carried unanimously. Variance - Dennis Christianson - (to storage building size) - Mr. Kluegel reported that Mr. Christianson is asking for a variance to the 1,000 foot limit on storage building on lands of less than 10 acres. Mr. Christianson has a 7 -acre parcel. Mr. Kulaszewicz asked why a larger building is necessary and Mr. Christianson said he wanted to store his several 4 -wheel drive trucks, he plans to pur- chase a motor home, had a boat that had some vandalism from bring left outside. He felt he needed a large building to store this type of possessions. Mr. Kluegel pointed out the Planning and Zoning had recommended denial of this variance since there is no hardship of the land. Mr. Hawkins said that if the Council felt this district should have larger storage buildings, then the ordinance should be amended, not granting a variance to everyone who requests one. Mr. Marier moved to deny the variance since there is no hardship to the land and suggested that perhaps Mr. Christianson should return to P & Z and work out something with them. Seconded by Mr. Kulaszewicz. Motion carried unanimously.
