Use Permit_.(D. Grove) Chairman Senkler requested that Administrator Huber review the special use application for David and Leah Grove with the planning commission. Mr. Huber stated that Dave and Leah Grove have applied to the City of Hugo for a special use permit to house two horses on their property located at 16210 Harrow Ave. No., Hugo, Minnesota. The property in question consists of approximately 5'6 acres and is generally described as a part of government lot 1, section 9, T31N, R21W, in the City of Hugo. Housing of horses in an RR2 residential zone requires a special use permit. Mr. Grove secured a permit from the city earlier this year to construct the pole barn on his property located northwest of the residence. We have reviewed the site plan in question and see no objections to the proposal, although the corral or confinement area for the horses should be shown on the site plan. If the planning commission recommends approval of this request we would recommend said approval be subject to special conditions. Chairman Senkler requested comments from the public. There was no one from the public to comment. Commissioners agreed that the surrounding area was agriculutural and horses would be compatible in this RR2 zone. Mr. Grove stated that he would specify the corral area on his plan and agreed that the conditions recommended by the city were reasonable.
