Dale Wills, 2176 157th Lane, Andover, stated that he appreciates the consideration of the Council and noted that staff has been great to work with. He noted that they did incorporate changes to the original proposal after the meetings with the public and the Planning Commission. He stated that they would love to have an access off Highway 47 but noted that in his experience, the State would most likely require additional turn lanes, which would cause significant increases in cost. Councilmember Kuzma asked the timeframe. Mr. Wills stated that the purchase would be conditional on the approvals of the City and hoped to close on the property by March 14th. He stated that the hope would be to have an arena and indoor stable functional by October. He stated that they will also be completing minor remodels on the existing home, with the intention of moving into that home in June. Councilmember Heinrich stated that she understands the desire to have a change in the hours of operation to make the facility available during the daytime hours, for those children that may be homeschooled or have afternoon sports. She stated that this is a great example of residents going through the Conditional Use Permit process and what a great help staff can be. Motion by Councilmember Heinrich, seconded by Councilmember Musgrove, to Adopt Resolution #19-042 Approving the Issuance of a Home Occupation Permit to Operate a Commercial Horse Farm on the Property Located at 17902 Saint Francis Blvd NW and Declaring Terms of Permit and Resolution #19-043 Approving the Issuance of a Conditional Use Permit to Exceed the Allowable Square Footage and Number of Accessory Buildings on the Property Generally Known as 17902 Saint Francis Blvd. Motion carried.

Councilmember Kuzma asked what impact this would have on roads. Community Development Director Gladhill replied that this would not change the standards for public roads or minimum design standards for public roads. Councilmember Shryock asked if this would create a new zoning district. Community Development Director Gladhill confirmed that this would create a subdistrict within the R-1 zoning district, titled R-1 Villas. Acting Mayor Riley asked if the 50-foot width would apply to R-2. City Council / February 26, 2019 Page 5 of 11
