Chairperson Bauer inquired if Mr. Wills could add a second residence to this property. City <br /> Planner Anderson commented this would currently not be allowed under City Code. He stated a <br /> minor subdivision for a lot split would be required. <br /> Commissioner Surma asked if the size of the composting area was adequate. Mr. Wills reported <br /> he was requesting 35 horses and explained the composting area would be 60' x 100'. <br /> Commissioner Surma questioned if the pasture size was adequate. Mr. Wills indicated most of <br /> the property would be fenced,which would provide 137 acres of rotating pastures for the horses. <br /> Commissioner Anderson stated his only concerns were with the number of cars that would be <br /> coming up this City street and with the number of trees that would be lost. He anticipated the <br /> County may require the driveway to be moved over to the new street. Mr. Wills discussed the <br /> amount of traffic that was anticipated to visit the property and explained a 100-foot buffer of <br /> trees would remain in place. He commented further on how many car trips (240 per day) that <br /> would be generated if a housing development were to locate on this property versus the proposed <br /> horse farm. <br /> Commissioner Gengler asked who the horse training and riding lessons would be marketed to. <br /> Mr. Wills stated this would be geared towards those ages 13 to 25 who are struggling with <br /> anxiety or depression. He explained he would also be offering horse boarding. <br /> Commissioner Gengler inquired if employees would be living onsite and questioned how Mr. <br /> Wills would be using the existing home. Mr. Wills reported he would like to remodel the <br /> existing farm home for his family now with the goal of building a new home for his family in the <br /> near future. He explained the existing home would then be used for his married daughter. He <br /> stated the property would not be used to house employees. <br /> Commissioner Anderson asked what the timeline was for this project. Mr. Wills commented he <br /> would like to close on the property shortly after receiving approval from the City. Shortly <br /> thereafter, he would build an arena and stables. It was his hope he could be living on the <br /> property by next June. <br /> Chairperson Bauer thanked Mr. Wills for his input and noted this item would be moving forward <br /> for further consideration. <br /> 7. COMMISSION/STAFF INPUT <br /> 7.01: Receive Staff Update <br /> The Staff Update was noted. Staff provided the Commission with an update on the City's Public <br /> Works facilities. <br /> Commissioner Surma stated he supported the Public Works facilities being reconstructed as the <br /> buildings have been neglected for far too long. He encouraged the Planning Commissioners and <br /> Planning Commission/January 3,2019 <br /> Page 4 of 5 <br />
