He stated that he has contemplated removing that butstruggles with that because it is over 100 years old. Commissioner Gengler commented that the proposed structure is attractive and very large. She asked if any of the other items being stored outdoors could then be stored indoors. Mr. Nordick replied that they do not. He commented that riding the horses requires a fair bit of space and that is what the new structure would be used for. Community Development Director/Deputy City Administrator Hagen stated that when it was mentioned that the firewood could be covered with a tarp, he would imagine a blue tarp and therefore in terms of aesthetics it would seem preferable to instead make that membrane structure more permanent. Commissioner Walker asked if the property in Nowthen was included, the number of outbuildings would then be compliant. Senior Planner Anderson replied that would be true with the exception of the riding arena. Commissioner Walker asked if the applicant has checked the regulations of Nowthen related to membrane structures. Mr. Nordick stated that he brought that membrane structure from his last house. Commissioner Walker suggested moving it to the Nowthen side of the property. Mrs. Nordick agreed that is a good idea. Chairperson Bauer believed that the Nowthen property is already being factored in. Senior Planner Anderson clarified that technically the Ramsey property is noncompliant with five buildings and moving one of those would bring it into compliance and the CUP could then allow for the riding arena for a total of five detached buildings on the Ramsey property.
