Soecial Use Permit (John Southward Administrative Intern Stu Schmeling reviewed the application with the planning commission. He stated that Mr. John Southward has applied to the City of Hugo for the construction of a 60' X 100' (6,000 sq. ft.) accessory structure on a ten acre parcel. The site in question is zoned agricultural. Mr. Southward stated that the building will be used as a garage, for storing farm machinery and equipment, hay, and possibly horses. The city zoning ordinance 320-4, Subd. C allows accessory storage over 3600 sq. ft. by special use permit only. The site has approximately 8 semi trailers and circus equipment scattered throughout the property. The property is described as that part of the east 475' of the southeast 1/4 of the southeast 1/4 of Section 28, T31, R21W, lying south of 132nd St. North. It was noted that Southward Amusements, located at 82 N. Mounds Blvd. and Mr. John Southward's previous address was the same. We can only assume there is some correlation between Southward Amusements and 1r. Southward. One concern of the city is the storage of carnival equipment which is not allowed by city ordinances and should be addressed prior to approval of additional accessory storage. Chairman Senkler requested comments from the public. Mr. Southward stated he stores the circus equipment for his brother but will have it removed. Mr. Southward also indicated that he stores mills, lathes, and tools in the trailers, but the equipment is for his hobby and not a commercial operation. He informed commission members he is not conducting any commercial business on the site. Commissioner Mezzano felt it would be extremely difficult to determine at what point a hobby becomes a commercial operation. Commissioner Barnes did not have any objections to the building provided all commercial equipment is removed and no commercial activity take place on site. Motion made by Mezzano, seconded by Barnes to recommend approval of the special use permit for a 60' X 100' accessory storage building for Mr. John Southward, on his property at 7307 132nd St. (93028-2130), subject to the following special conditions. 1. Remove all semi trailers and carnival equipment stored on the site at 7307 132nd St. 2. No exterior storage be permitted on the site. 3. No commercial storage or activity will be permitted on site. 4. No repairs of commercial or recreational equipment be permitted on site. P.C. Minutes 10-25-89 2
