SUBJECT:
Neighborhood Preservation Overlay District
DATE:
June 12, 2007
INTRODUCTION
The City Council at a joint workshop with the Historic Preservation Commission [HPC] in 2006
requested that the HPC work with staff in developing an ordinance that would assist in the
preservation of Farmington's historic neighborhoods.
DISCUSSION
Over the last five months staff has been working with the City's HPC, Historic Preservation
consultant, and the City Attorney in an attempt to develop an ordinance that would act as an overlay
zone to protect certain historically significant areas of Farmington. The result of those discussions is
the attached Neighborhood Preservation Overlay District [NPOD] ordinance - Exhibit A. An overlay
zone, once designated, would require the review of any submitted permits by the HPC for any
property located within a designated NPOD district if the permit is for one of the following:
(I) Demolition of a building in whole or in part within the NPOD district;
(2) Construction of any new building within the NPOD district;
(3) Moving a building within the NPOD district
Under the proposed ordinance, the HPC would review the application ("permit"), make a
recommendation and issue a certificate of appropriateness for the project within thirty days of
building permit submission. The building official would not be able to issue a permit for any of the
three conditions listed above without approval from the HPC. It should be noted that additions and
remodels, such as decks, porches etc., will not be under the scrutiny of this ordinance unless the
addition and/or remodel occurs on a property that has been designated as a Farmington Heritage
Landmark.
At this time, it is not the intent to create an initial district but to get the ordinance in place so a district
may be established at a later date. Staff and the HPC have a preliminary district boundary in mind;
however, there are certain provisions within the proposed ordinance that must be satisfied before the
creation of the first NPOD district.
.
.
.
The HPC reviewed this document at its regular meeting on April 24, 2007 and recommended that it
be forwarded on to the Planning Commission.
ACTION REQUESTED
Recommend approval of the attached ordinance amendment and forward that recommendation onto
the City Council for consideration.
Sincerely,
-r;, DJ~

ORDINANCE NO.
CITY OF FARMINGTON
DAKOTA COUNTY, MINNESOTA
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE 10
OF THE FARMINGTON CITY CODE REGARDING ZONING, CREATING A
NEIGHBORHOOD PRESERVATION OVERLAY DISTRICT
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FARMINGTON ORDAINS:
SECTION 1. Title 10, Chapter 5, of the Farmington City Code regarding Zoning Districts and
District Provisions is amended by adding a new section to read as follows:
10-5-27: NEIGHBORHOOD PRESERVATION OVERLAY DISTRICT
.
(A) Purpose: The City Council of the City of Farmington declares that the preservation,
conservation, maintenance, and enhancement of older buildings in the city's historic
neighborhood(s) will promote the general welfare of the residents of the city, and
therefore establishes the zoning classification to be known as the Neighborhood
Preservation Overlay District (NPOD). With respect to the properties placed in the
NPOD, the purpose of this section is:
1. To retain and enhance cohesive streetscapes which are linked historically through
location, design, setting, feeling, and association.
2. To assure that new construction in the NPOD is compatible with the character of
Farmington's historic neighborhood( s);
3. To protect and enhance the city's attractions to residents, tourists, and visitors, and;
4. To promote the use of older buildings and neighborhoods for the education, pleasure,
and welfare of the people of Farmington.
The City Council further declares that the inclusion of properties within the NPOD shall
not change or affect in any way the uses allowed on, and the restrictions and requirements
then or thereafter applicable to, the land and structures under any other zoning
classification, but the properties will be subject to the additional restrictions of the NPOD
established in this section.
(B) Definitions: For the purposes of this section, the following words and phrases shall have
the meanings respectively ascribed to them by this subsection:
.
1. Neighborhood Preservation Overlay District (NPOD). A discrete, geographically
definable area containing at minimum twenty-five (25) properties which have buildings,
structures, and land linked historically through location, design, setting, feeling, and
association.
.
2. Older Building. Any building or structural element of a building that is more than 30
years old.
(C) Designation of Neighborhood Preservation Overlay District.
1. Procedures
(a) No neighborhood shall be eligible for designation into the NPOD
without the consent of a simple majority (50% affirmative responses) of
the property owners within the area proposed to be transferred into the
NPOD.
(b) The transfer of land to the NPOD shall be accomplished in accordance with
the requirements for amendment of the City's zoning ordinance as specified in
Section 10-3-12 of the Farmington City Code. However, the Planning
Commission shall not review and make a recommendation on any such
amendment until it has received a report and recommendation from the Heritage
Preservation Commission (HPC).
(c) After adoption of an ordinance transferring property to the NPOD, the City
Clerk shall file a certified copy of the ordinance amendment to the Dakota
County Recorder's Office; but failure to file shall not affect the validity of the
transfer or the application ofthe provisions of this section to the property.
.
2. Criteria for Selection of Areas for Inclusion in the NPOD. To be considered for
transfer to the NPOD, land areas must:
(a) Represent cohesive streetscapes that have been shaped by historical
processes of land use and which retain visual characteristics indicative of such
processes.
(b) Contain groups of buildings that physically and spatially comprise a specific
environment and are linked historically through location, design, setting, feeling, and
association.
(c) Represent a significant and distinguishable entity whose components may
lack the individual architectural significance and historical integrity required for
designation as a Farmington Heritage Landmark.
(D) Review of Permits
1. Generally. In the NPOD, the HPC shall review applications for the following city
permits:
(a) Demolition of a building in whole or in part within the NPOD district;
(b) Construction of any new building within the NPOD district;
.
(c) Moving a building within the NPOD district.
.
Nothing in this subsection shall apply to or prevent the razing of any building which
has been ordered demolished by the City Building Official because of its dangerous,
hazardous or unsafe condition.
Remodels and additions (including, but not limited to, decks and porches) are not
subject to review by the HPC, except for those properties that have been designated
Farmington Heritage Landmarks.
2. HPC Review:
(a) Under any of the three conditions listed under Section 10-5-27 (D)(1),
a property owner is required to apply for a Certificate of Appropriateness
for the property within the NPOD. Such application shall be made to the
HPC.
(b) The HPC shall review and make its recommendation regarding the
Certificate of Appropriateness to the City's Building Official within thirty (30)
days of submittal of a building permit for the relevant property in the NPOD.
The City's Building Official shall not authorize issuance of any permit for which
the HPC has recommended disapproval.
.
(c) If the HPC recommends disapproval of the issuance of the permit, the
application may be appealed to the City Council. The procedure for hearings and
orders by the City Council on appeals made pursuant to this section shall be
made in the same manner as a request for a variance under Section 10-3-6 of the
City Code.
SECTION 2. This ordinance shall be effective immediately upon its passage.

Riverbend 2nd Addition Final Plat
FROM:
SUBJECT:
DATE:
June 12,2007
INTRODUCTION
Mattamy Homes (formerly known as Homes by Chase) has submitted the Riverbend 2nd Addition Final Plat
(Exhibit A) for the property generally located west of Dakota County Estates and north of the Meadow Creek
development in the northeast comer of the City of Farmington.
DISCUSSION
The developer is proposing to re-p1at the northern 75.05 acres of the Riverbend Subdivision which was
approved by the City Council in 2005. The submitted final plat consists of 27 residential platted lots and
numerous outlots.
Preliminary Plat
The preliminary plat for Riverbend 2nd Addition was reviewed and a recommendation of approval was
forwarded to the City Council on November 14, 2006. Subsequently, the City Council approved the
preliminary plat on November 20, 2006 with the following contingencies:
1. The preliminary plat approval is contingent on the approval of the construction plans for grading,
storm water and utilities by the Engineering Division.
2. Submitting a SWPP and dewatering plan to the SWCD.
The approved preliminary plat consists of 78 single-family lots (an increase of 13 lots from what was
previously approved with the original Riverbend plat in 2005). As previously mentioned, the submitted final
plat consists 27 residentia110ts thus creating the need for additional future phases/final plats in order for this
development to be built out as the northern half of Riverbend 2nd Addition consists of dedicated roadway and
out1ots.
Existing Conditions
The property is currently vacant land that had been utilized for farming. North Creek exists on the easterly
side ofthe property, which also encompasses a revised floodplain and wetlands along the creek. The wetlands
shown on site are classified as "Utilize" and "Protect" wetlands. The utilized wetlands have been re-c1assified
from Manage 2 wetlands. Utilize wetlands have been significantly altered and degraded through past
disturbances. There are no requirements for buffef widths Of structure setbacks from Utilize wetlands. The
Protect wetland is located in the far east portion of the site and will not be affected by development.
.
.
.
The Developer is proposing to excavate one of the "Utilize" wetlands, which is 26,838 square feet in size. The
developer plans on utilizing the material excavated from the wetland to build up the building pads, thereby
eliminating the need to haul in additional fill from an outside source. Proposed replacement will be on-site
with the construction of a 45,808 square-foot new wetland area which will be adjacent to North Creek as well
as 26,838 square feet of Public Value Credits from on-site storm water ponding in order to meet the 2:1
requirement. A wetland alteration permit is required when a project impacts water/wetland resources
regulated by local, state and federal agencies implementing the MN Wetland Conservation Act (WCA) of
1991. It should be noted that a wetland alteration permit was approved for Phase Two of Riverbend by the
City Council on April 17, 2006.
Proposed Lot Sizes and Widths
The property is zoned R-2, LowlMedium Density Residential, which requires a minimum lot size of 6,000
square feet and a lot width of 60 feet. All of the lot sizes and widths meet the minimum standards of the R-2
Zoning District.
Parks & Recreation
The developer proposes a park in the central portion of this site (Outlot E) and trails located throughout the
easterly portion of the site. Randy Distad, Parks and Recreation Director, and the Parks and Recreation
Advisory Commission have reviewed and approved the location of the park are and trails. All trails outside of
the park area to be dedicated (Outlot E) the trails are located in outlots. The developer has indicated that they
would be willing to donate the outlotted areas on which the trails are proposed to be located.
Transportation
The roadway network for the final plat has not been modified from what was approved/platted in 2005. There
are two proposed accesses from the Riverbend 2nd Addition project including one access to the west through
Dakota County Estates at Upper 182nd Street. The second access out is to the south onto Duluth Street in the
original Riverbend Development. The four cul-de-sacs (Dunbury Circle, Dunbury Court, Duncan Circle, and
Duncan Court) are proposed at 32 feet wide front to front with a 60-foot right-of-way. Dunbury Avenue is
classified as a minor collector and is proposed at 38 feet wide front to front with a 70-foot right-of-way.
Outlot C is being preserved for a potential future roadway connection.
Landscape Plan
The developer is proposing to install boulevard trees at a 40-foot on center to comply with the City Code.
Engineering Review
Water utilities will be extended from the west from Dakota County Estates (Upper 182nd Street) as well from
the south from an existing line located in Duluth Street. Sanitary sewer will also be extended into this
development from these locations. The Engineering Division has recommend approval of the Final Plat
contingent upon satisfaction of the Engineering comments. Those comments have been forwarded to the
developer's engineer.
Adverse Possession Claim
As discussed during the preliminary plat stage, there is an ongoing issue regard adverse possession of a portion
of the area to be platted with a number of property owners within Dakota County Estates. The areas in
question are depicted on the final plat as outlots L & M. The outlots will continue to be owned by Mattamy
Homes and will not be dedicated to the City. Outlotting the areas in question allows the approval of the final
plat to continue. It will then be left to the developer and the individual homeowners within Dakota County
Estates to decide how to divide up those areas. This can he done independent of platting the subject property.
.
.
.
ACTION REOUESTED
Recommend approval of the Riverbend 2nd Addition Final Plat and forward the recommendation to the City
Council contingent upon the following items:
1. The Final Plat approval is contingent on the preparation and execution of the Development Contract.
2. The satisfaction of all engineering comments as well as approval of the construction plans for
grading, storm water and utilities by the Engineering Division.
Respectfully submitted,
~ cJ;,J2.

SUBJECT:
City Hall and 1 sl Street Garage Site Plan Review
DATE:
June 12, 2007
INTRODUCTION
The applicant, the City of Farmington, has submitted a site plan for the proposed Farmington City Hall and the
1 sl Street Garage. City Hall is proposed to be located at the northwest comer of 3rd and Spruce Streets. The 1 Sl
Street Garage is located at 710 1 sl Street.
DISCUSSION
City Hall Site Plan Review
According to the City Code, site plan review and approval by the Planning Commission is required for the
construction of new structures on redeveloped or vacant undeveloped land. The Commission reviews general
site design, including setbacks, access, parking, landscaping, and other potential impacts to surrounding
properties.
The proposed location of the City Hall is at the northwest comer of3rd and Spruce Streets and contains 47,069
square feet or 1.081 acres (Exhibit A). The lot originally had 6 separate PIN numbers, however, a lot
combination was approved at the County and the parcels have been combined to show one lot (Exhibit B).
The site is located in the B-2 zoning district which requires a minimum lot size of 5,000 square feet and a
minimum lot width of 50 feet (Exhibit C). Setbacks, lot coverage and parking spaces are not regulated in the
B-2 zoning district. A building may cover the entire lot of a property in the B-2 zone.
The applicant is proposing to construct a two-story, 43,609 square foot building abutting 3rd and Spruce
Streets. The applicant chose the site in order to anchor the existing downtown and allow future growth for at
least 20 years of expandability within the building.
The building construction will include brick, masonry, and glass materials (Exhibit D1 and D2). The building
is proposed with two main entry locations opening to the west and east for the public and staff (Exhibit E1-
E4). The first floor will consist of the Council Chambers, and the departments of Community Development,
Engineering, and Parks & Recreation (Exhibit F). The second floor will consist of the departments of
Administration, Finance, and Human Resources (Exhibit G). A training room and lunch room will also be
located on the second floor.
. Roof-Mounted Equipment
Section 10-6-9 (D) requires either the screening of roof-mounted equipment or the equipment being centrally
located on the roof (Exhibit H), unless this is not feasible because of the location of the mechanical equipment
inside of the building. In that case, the most unobtrusive feasible rooftop location shall be used. As shown on
Exhibit G, the mechanical room is located at the northwest comer of the building. Exhibit I shows the roof
plan where the roof-mounted equipment is located, also located at the northwest comer of the building. The
equipment would stand 9 feet tall from the roof.
Wold Architects have reviewed the requirement for screening this structure and they are recommending that
the structure not be screened because the equipment would be less noticeable. Wold is proposing to paint the
unit in a neutral color per the Code. As shown in Exhibits 11-J4, the two views from 3rd and Spruce Streets
show that any screening of the equipment would be more noticeable because of the proposed metal louvered
screening that would be installed to meet the code requirement. Considering the various views provided by
Wold, staff is recommending that the equipment not be screened so that the equipment is less noticeable.
Parking and Transportation Access
The B-2 zoning district does not require off-street parking spaces; however, the applicant is proposing 46 off-
street parking spaces on the west side of the new building and 26 on-street parking spaces.
The site will be access from Spruce Street and from the alley off of 3rd Street. The Transportation Engineer,
Shelly Johnson, has recommend that the Spruce Street access be widened to 26 feet rather than 25 feet in order
for ease of turning in and out of the site.
.
Landscaping/Sidewalk
The applicant has proposed street trees, shrubs, wildflowers, and grasses surrounding the building and parking
lot (Exhibit K). The street trees include two ginkos along 3rd Street and six boulevard lindens along Spruce
Street. A variety of shrubs, wildflowers, and grasses are proposed and the southeast comer of the building.
Additional wildflowers will be located on the south and southwest sides of the building foundation. Three
boulevard lindens surrounded by sod will be located at the southwest comer ofthe property.
The applicant proposes to continue the existing sidewalk design on the south side of the property along Spruce
Street.
Solid Waste
The Solid Waste Division has approved the location of the trash enclosure on the north side of the site. The
trash hauler will continue to pick up the Farmington Bakery garbage as they head west on the alleyway and
make a u-turn on 2nd Street to return to the alley to pick up the City Hall waste.
1 It Street Garal!e Site Plan Review
.
The 18t Street Garage proposal was reviewed by the Planning Commission at its meeting on Apri111, 2006. At
the meeting the Planning Commission approved a Conditional Use Permit to allow the construction of a public
building in an RD zoning district and a variance to the parking requirement to allow 5 off-street parking spaces
rather than the required 20 spaces (Exhibit L).
.
The property is located in the RD zoning district and encompasses 0.74 acres (Exhibit M). The applicant is
proposing to demolish the existing 4,800 square foot building and construct a 5,200 square foot building (65
feet wide x 80 feet long) at the southwest comer of the property. Once the existing building is demolished, an
area of 9,720 square feet will remain as open space and sodded with turf (Exhibit N).
The site plan has been revised since the April 11, 2006 Planning Commission meeting. The following
revisions have been made to the plan:
1. The proposed building to be constructed has increased in square footage from 3,963 to 5,200.
2. The impound lot has been relocated from the northwest comer of the site to the center portion of the
property just north of the main entrance.
3. The main entrance to the property has shifted to the south by 50 feet to allow for the impound lot to be
located to the north of the main entrance.
4. Only 4 parking spaces are shown on the plan. An additional space will need to be located on the
property in order to comply with the approved variance.
Proposed City Storage Building
The 5,200 square foot building will be constructed with precast wall panels (Exhibit 0). Four overhead doors
are proposed for the front of the building. The building will be used by both the Parks & Recreation and
Public Works Departments in order to store vehicles and equipment.
Setbacks/Lot Coverage
. Section 10-5-12 of the City Codes requires that all buildings maintain the following setback requirements:
. Front yard setback: 20 feet
. Side yard setback: 5 feet
. Rear Yard setback: 6 feet
The setbacks for the proposed storage building will be a minimum often (10) feet from the rear and side yards
of the property. As previously mentioned in this memo, there is an existing well house located on this site. A
fifty (50) foot radius must be maintained around the well casing to allow complete access to the well. The
proposed building will not be located within that fifty foot radius. All other setbacks meet or exceed the
minimum requirements mentioned above.
The lot coverage is approximately 16% upon the construction of the proposed building. The RD zoning
district requires a maximum lot coverage of 35%, thereby meeting the requirements of the lot coverage.
Screening/Landscaping
Section 10-6-9 of the City Code stipulates that screening consisting of a fence, wall, landscaping or earth berm
shall be required in residential districts where:
1. Any off-street parking lot contains more than six (6) parking spaces;
2. Any material and equipment is stored other than recreational equipment, construction
.
A 100% opaque screen is not required in this instance because the property is residentially zoned. There is an
existing six (6) foot tall chain link fence that surrounds a majority of the property (the entire lot except the
northern part of the lot containing the existing storage building). At the April 11, 2007 Planning Commission
meeting, staff suggested that the existing six (6) foot tall fencing have slats installed to provide additional
.
screening. The applicant is proposing to remove the existing 6-foot tall fence and replacing it with a 6-foot tall
fence with barbed wire along the top of the fence. The applicant is also proposing to screen the fence with
fabric similar to the fabric found on ball fields.

10-6-9: SCREENING:
.
The screening required in this section shall consist of a fence, wall, landscaping or earth berm
and shall not encroach into public right of way. Natural features such as differences in
elevation and tree masses may negate the need for manmade screening in certain areas:
(A)Screening In Residential Districts: Screening shall be required in residential districts where:
1. Any off street parking lot contains more than six (6) parking spaces.
2. Any material and equipment is stored other than recreational equipment, construction
material currently being used on the premises.
(B)Screening In Business And Industrial Districts: A one hundred percent (100%) opaque
screen consisting of: 1) a six feet (6') to eight feet (8') wooden opaque fence and
landscaping, 2) landscaping and berms, or 3) a combination of both shall be required in
business and industrial districts where:
1. Any structure, parking or storage is adjacent to and within one hundred feet (100') of
property zoned for residential use.
2. Any side or rear yard of a business or industry that is across the street from a residential
zone.
.
3. Any material and equipment stored outside except in display yards or for those being

1) Conditional Use Permit allowing the construction of a public building in an
RD zoning district
2) Variance to reduce the required off-street parking for a public building
April 11, 2006
The City of Farmington has requested approval of a Conditional Use Permit to construct an
approximately 3,963 square feet public building (storage building) and a Police Department impound
lot in the RD zoning district. In addition, a variance has also been requested to reduce the amount of
off-street parking that is required for public buildings. The proposed facilities are to be located on
the lot located at 710 1st Street, Farmington, MN.

Surrounding Land Uses:
Single-family residential to the north, east, and south with
school district and FAA property adjacent to the west.
Existing Zoning:
Comprehensive Plan:
Current Land Use:
RD (Downtown Residential)
Public/Semi Public
There is an existing well house located in the southeast portion
of the site. There is also an existing 4,800 square foot City
.
.
..
owned storage building, which will be tom down as part of this
project. The well house will remain.
Proposed Land Use:
Public building (tempered and cold storage) and impound lot.
DISCUSSION
Conditional Use Permit
According to the.City Code, public buildings are conditionally allowed in the Downtown Residential
zoning district. The Code provides the following criteria that must be met in order for the Planning
Commission to approve a Conditional Use Permit:
1. The proposed use conforms to the district permitted and conditional use provisions and all
general regulations of this title.
2. The proposed use shall not involve any element or cause any conditions that may be
dangerous, injurious or noxious to any other property or persons and shall comply with the
applicable performance standards.
3. The proposed use shall be constructed, designed, sited, oriented and landscaped to produce
harmonious relationship of buildings and grounds to adjacent buildings and properties.
4. The proposed use shall produce a total visual impression and environment which is consistent
with the environment ofthe neighborhood.
5. The proposed use shall organize vehicular access and parking to minimize traffic congestion
in the neighborhood.
6. The proposed use shall preserve the objectives of this title and shall be consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan.
Proposed City Storage Building
The City of Farmington is proposing the construction of an approximately 4,000 square foot storage
building on this site. An existing storage building is located on site and will be torn down with the
construction of the new facility. Approximately 3,152 square feet of the proposed building will be
utilized as tempered storage for various City equipment/vehicles. The remaining 810 square feet will
be utilized as work space and cold storage.
The design of the proposed building as well as the overall construction plans for the site have not yet
been finalized. These will be presented to the Planning Commission within the next few months at
the site plan review stage.
Lot coverage will not be an issue with this proposal. The lot coverage upon construction of the
proposed building will be approximately 12%. The RD zoning district allows properties to be
covered with structures up to 35%.
.
.
.
Proposed Impound Lot
The preliminary site plan shows a Police Department impound lot placed where the existing storage
building is currently located on the northern portion of the site. The preliminary site plan shows the
installation of a six (6) foot tall chain link fence to secure the lot. Slats will have to be installed
within the fence to provide additional screening. It should be noted that the impound lot must
maintain a five (5) foot setback from all property lines.
The impound lot will have to be paved per City code. Section 10-6-4 (Off-Street Parking) requires
that all vehicles parked in residential areas be parked on hard surface driveways or parking aprons.
In addition, all parking areas shall maintain a five foot (5') setback from side and rear lot lines.
The site plan will have to be modified to reflect the above-mentioned requirements.
Setbacks
Section 10-5-12 of the City Codes reqUIres that all buildings maintain the following setback
requirements:
. Front yard setback: 20 feet
. Side yard setback: 5 feet
. Rear Yard setback: 6 feet
The setbacks for the proposed storage building will be a minimum often (10) feet from the rear and
side yards of the property. As previously mentioned in this memo, there is an existing well house
located on this site. A fifty (50) foot radius must be maintained around the well casing to allow
complete access to the well. The proposed building will not be located within that fifty foot radius.
All other setbacks meet or exceed the minimum requirements mentioned above.
Parking
Section 10-6-4 of the City Code provides parking requirements for public buildings (1 per employee
plus 1 per 200 square feet of building). No City employees will be working directly out of this
location. The proposed storage building is to be approximately 3,963 square feet in size. This would
require that the City provide 20 off-street parking stalls. As shown on the preliminary site plan,
attached as Exhibit A, there are 5 off-street parking stalls provided for the proposed building. A
variance is required to reduce the amount of off-street parking as shown on the attached preliminary
site plan. The variance will be discussed later within this memorandum.
Landscaping/Screening
Section 10-6-9 of the City Code stipulates that screening consisting of a fence, wall, landscaping or
earth berm shall be required in residential districts where:
1. Any off-street parking lot contains more than six (6) parking spaces;
2. Any material and equipment is stored other than recreational equipment, construction
.
.
.
A 100% opaque screen is not required in this instance because the property is residentially zoned.
There is an existing six (6) foot tall chain link fence that surrounds a majority of the property (the
entire lot except the northern part of the lot containing the existing storage building). However, staff
is suggesting that the existing six (6) foot tall fencing have slats installed to provide additional
screemng.
Variance
As previously discussed, the City Code requires that one off-street parking space be provided for
each employee on site plus one per 200 square feet of building. It is important to note that City
employees will not work directly out of this location. The proposed storage building is to be
approximately 3,963 square feet in size. This would require that the City provide 20 off-street
parking stalls. The Preliminary site plan that is attached shows 5 parking stalls to be located on the
northern side of the proposed building, therefore requiring a variance.
The Planning Commission must determine whether the reasons provided by the applicant warrant
approval of the variance. The City Code provides the following criteria that must be met for a
variance to be approved:
1. Because the particular physical surroundings, or shape, configuration, topography, or other
conditions of the specific parcel of land involved, strict adherence to the regulations of this
Title would cause undue hardship. Economic consideration alone shall not constitute an
undue hardship if reasonable use for the property exists under the terms of this Title.
Due to the shape of the property as well as the location of a well house on site the
developable area of the site is somewhat limited. Therefore, strict adherence to the code
would cause an undue hardship. In addition, City employees will not work directly out of
this location.
2. The conditions upon which a variance is based are unique to the parcel of land for which the
variance is sought and are not applicable, generally, to other properties. within the same
zoning classification.
Due to the shape of the property as well as the location of a well house on site the
developable area of the site is somewhat limited. Therefore, the property is unique.
3. The alleged difficulty or hardship is caused by this Title and has not been created by any
persons presently having an interest in the parcel of land.
The alleged hardship was not created by the applicant
4. The granting of the variance will not alter the essential character of the locality or be injurious
to other property in the vicinity in which the parcel of land is located or substantially diminish
property values.
.
.
.
The property has been historically utilized in a manner that is very similar (public use) to
what is being proposed. Therefore, staff does not believe that approval of a variance would
cause any of the adverse effects mentioned above.
5. The proposed variance will not substantially increase the congestion of the public streets, or
increase the danger of fire, or be detrimental to the public welfare or public safety.
The variance would not create any of the above-mentioned effects.
6. The requested variance is the minimum action required to eliminate the hardship.
The reduction of the parking standards by 15 spaces from the required 20 off-street parking
spaces is the minimum action required to eliminate the hardship.
ACTION REQUESTED
Approve the Conditional Use Permit and Variance from the required parking standards subject to the
following contingencies:
1. The installation of slats within all fencing surrounding the property.
2. The impound lot be paved per City Code
3. The submission of a Landscape Plan that is acceptable to the Planning Division.

SUBJECT:
Sketch Plan Review - Farmington Business Bungalow
Condominium - Location: Lot 2 Block 2, Farmington Business
Park
DATE:
June 12, 2007
INTRODUCTION
Michael Braun, owner of Business Bungalows of Madison, Wisconsin has submitted a sketch
plan for 13 duplex buildings on Lot 2 Block 2 of the Farmington Business Park. The process for
submitting a sketch plan is outlined in the City's Subdivision Ordinance and allows the Planning
Commission to provide comments prior to preliminary plat submittal.
DISCUSSION
The subject property is zoned B-3 PUD (Heavy Business Planned Unit Development) and is
designated 'Business' in the Comprehensive Plan. The Farmington Business Park lot was platted
on March 7, 2005 and contains 8 developable lots. The submitted sketch plan is proposed for
Lot 2 Block 2, on the south side of Canton Circle (see Exhibit A). The lot is approximately 198
feet wide by 544 feet in depth.
Provosed Uses
The applicant is proposing a number of varying uses for the business bungalows. Exhibit B
shows the "typical business bungalow" uses. However, a number of uses would not comply with
the B-3 PUD and B-3 permitted and conditional uses as shown in Exhibit C & D.
Sketch Plan Review
The sketch plan shows 13 duplex buildings aligned north and south along a 26-foot wide interior
roadway (Exhibit E). Each building is 50 feet wide and 50 feet deep and allows for 2 units per
building. Each unit size is 25 feet wide by 50 feet deep with ceilings at 14 feet in height. Each
unit is constructed with a lO-foot tall by 12-foot wide overhead door. The building setbacks for
the B-3 PUD zone are 20 feet in the front and 10 feet on the side and rear yards. Upon review of
the sketch plan, the side and rear yard setbacks are being met (Exhibit F), however, it appears
that the front yard setback of 20 feet is not being met and requires a redesign.
.
.
~.
Required setback
*20 foot front yard setback
*6 foot side yard setback
*6 foot side yard setback
Proposed setback
* 15 foot front yard setback
* 18 foot side yard setback
*73.5 foot rear yard setback
Per the Farmington Business Park Design Standards the square footage of all building footprints
and parking areas must not exceed sixty five percent (65%) of the total square footage of any
building site within the business park area. The combined paved and building area shown on the
sketch plan is 39,415 square feet or 36.5% ofthe lot area.
The applicant is proposing a 12-stall parking lot near the northeast portion ofthe site (Exhibit G).
Additionally, the applicant proposes to allow up to 6 private parking spots per building
(including parking in front ofthe overhead door entrances).
The applicant has submitted potential rules and regulations for the business bungalows (Exhibit
H). The applicant is proposing to frame the buildings and include lap siding and brick to the
exterior (Photos). The applicant will need to insure that the exterior construction consists of 50%
or more of brick, stone, concrete or masonry block to meet the requirements of the B-3 PUD.
The applicant will be required to sprinkle the buildings because of their square footage unless the
Fire Code is revised on July to, 2007 to increase the square footage, thereby relinquishing the
need to sprinkle the structures.
Trash Enclosure
A trash enclosure has been shown at the south side ofthe property. The trash enclosure will have
to be screened per the requirements ofthe PUD Design Standards.
Landscaping
A landscape plan has not yet been submitted. This will have to be submitted at the time of site
plan review.
ACTION REQUESTED
Provide comments to the applicant regarding the sketch plan.
Respectfully submitted,
-?~

Sketch Plan Review - Colin Garvey - Farmington Business Park
Location: Lot 3, Block 3, Farmington Business Park
TO:
FROM:
DATE:
June 12, 2007
INTRODUCTION
Colin Garvey submitted the attached sketch plan for an approximately 21,100 square foot multi-
tenant building on Lot 3, Block 2, Farmington Business Park (Exhibit A).
DISCUSSION
. Sketch Plan Review
Per Section 10-6-3 of the City Code, prior to the formulation of a site plan, applicants must submit a
sketch plan to the zoning officer prior to filing a formal site plan application. The zoning officer shall
then have the authority to refer the sketch plan to the Planning Commission for discussion, review,
and informal comment. Any opinions or comments provided to the applicant by the zoning officer,
Planning Commission shall be considered advisory only and shall not constitute a binding decision
on the submittal.
The subject property is zoned B-3 (Heavy Business) PUD and has a comprehensive plan designation
of Commercial. The lot is approximately 195 feet wide by 544 feet in depth (2.49 acres) and is
located on the south side of Canton Circle (Exhibit A).
Proposed Uses
As previously mentioned, Mr. Garvey is looking to construct a multi-tenant building which would
contain the following proposed uses:
Tenant A:
Tenant B:
Tenant C:
Body Shop (approx. 9,000 sf)
Landscape Company (approx. 2,000 sf)
Lease Space (10,100 sf) with loading dock
.
It appears that the uses being proposed are consistent with either the permitted or conditional uses
specified in the B-3 Zoning District. The Body Shop may require a conditional use permit depending
on the type of work that will be performed on the vehicles. This will have to be verified with Mr.
.
.
.
Garvey. It should also be noted that a conditional use permit may be necessary for the use to
ultimately occupy the "lease space".
Building Construction Materials
The elevations on the building shows integral colored concrete block on the base of the building and
pre-engineered metal is proposed for the upper portion of the exterior surface (Exhibit B). A pre-
finished metal roof is also proposed for the structure. The applicant will need to insure that the
exterior construction consists of 50% or more of brick, stone, concrete or masonry block to meet the
requirements of the B-3 PUD.
Setbacks and Lot Coverage
The approved setbacks for the B-3 PUD are as follows:
ReQuired setback
*20 foot front yard setback
*6 foot side yard setback
*6 foot side yard setback
Proposed setback
*68 foot front yard setback
*45 foot side yard (right side); 55 foot side yard
(left side)
*212 foot rear yard setback
The sketch plan exceeds all of the aforementioned setback requirements. Per the Farmington
Business Park Design Standards the square footage of all building footprints and parking areas must
not exceed sixty five percent (65%) of the total square footage of any building site within the
business park area. The combined paved and building area shown on the sketch plan is 68,325 square
feet or 63% ofthe lot area.
Off-street Parking Standards
The sketch plan shows a total of 71 off-street parking stalls on site. The total parking required for the
uses were based on the following calculations:
Tenant A:
Total 9,000 square feet
1,200 sf of office @ 1 space per 250 sf = 5 stalls
8 bay shop @ 4 stalls per bay = 32 stalls
Tenant B:
Total 2,000 square feet
50% office / 1,000 sf @ 1/250 = 4stalls
50% Industrial! 1,000 sf @ 1/600 = 13 stalls
Tenant C:
Total 10,100 square feet
25% Office / 2,500 sf @ 1/250 = 10 stalls
75% Industrial / 7,600 sf@ 1/600 = 13 stalls
Of the 71 off-street parking spaces 31 stalls have been designated for outside vehicle storage. It
appears that the applicant is providing adequate parking space for the tenants. However, the Planning
Commission will have to determine if the intent of the parking code is not met with utilizing 31 of the
71 stalls for outside vehicle storage.
. Outside Storage
Per the Design Standards approved with the PUD Agreement for the Business Park, no outside
storage areas shall be allowed without prior approval of the City. If outside storage is given city
approval, all materials and or containers and equipment shall be screened from view. The screening
must include a) a six (6) to eight foot (8') high opaque wooden fence and landscaping; b) landscaping
and berms; or c) a combination of both to fully screen outdoor storage. It appears that the proposed
storage area on the sketch plan is screened by a fence. The Planning Commission will have to make
a determination on the outside storage proposal, and if allowed, the commission will have to verify
that the screening is adequate to meet the design standards.
Trash Enclosure
At this time, a location for a trash enclosure has not been identified. A location will have to be
identified on the site plan. In addition, the trash enclosure will have to be screened per the
requirements of the PUD Design Standards.
Landscaping
A landscape plan has not yet been submitted. This will have to be submitted at the time of site plan
reVIew.
. ACTION REQUESTED
Review the attached sketch plan and provide the developer with any necessary
comments/suggestions.
Respectfully submitted,
Tony Wippler, Assistant City Planner

620 5th Street - variance for zero setback of accessory structure
SUBJECT:
DATE:
June 12, 2007
INTRODUCTIONIDISCUSSION
The property owner at 620 5th Street, Mr. Ian Menoch, would like to discuss with the Planning
Commission the possibility of receiving a variance to relocate his southern property line at a zero
setback
The owner has been in discussions with his neighbor to the south about reconfiguring their
shared property line to run along the north side of the neighbor's existing garage and driveway
(Ex. A). However, this action would create a zero setback along the existing garage. The
property is located in the RD zoning district, which requires a side yard setback of 5 feet (Ex. B).
The owner desires to reconfigure the lot line in order to make a straight lot line, to continue to
utilize his clothesline that is fixed into the ground just north of the existing neighbor's garage,
and to allow the neighbor to install a picket fence on the reconfigured lot line.
Staff discussed the variance requirements with the property owner and the need to determine a
hardship for the approval of a variance. Staff told the property owner that there was not a
hardship; however, the property owner requested that he speak with the Planning Commission
about his request. The City's variance requirements are attached for the Planning Commission's
review (Ex. C).
ACTION REQUESTED
Discuss the proposal with the property owner and make comments to his request.

. The board of adjustment shall have the power to vary from the requirements of this title, and to
attach conditions to the variance as it deems necessary to assure compliance with the purpose
of this title.
(A) The following exhibits shall be required unless waived by the zoning officer:
1. A boundary surveyor an area survey including the property in question and up to three
hundred feet (300') beyond showing: topography, utilities, lot boundaries, buildings,

this title would cause undue hardship. Economic consideration alone shall not constitute an
undue hardship if reasonable use for the property exists under the terms of this title.
2. The conditions upon which a variance is based are unique to the parcel of land for which
the variance is sought and are not applicable, generally, to other properties within the same
zoning classification.
3. The alleged difficulty or hardship is caused by this title and has not been created by any
persons presently having an interest in the parcel of land.
J
.
4. The granting of the variance will not alter the essential character of the locality or be
injurious to other property in the vicinity in which the parcel of land is located or
substantially diminish property values.
5. The proposed variance will not substantially increase the congestion of the public
.
.
.
streets, or increase the danger of fire, or be detrimental to the public welfare or public
safety .
6. The requested variance is the minimum action required to eliminate the hardship.
(D)Upon appeal of a decision by the board of adjustment, the zoning officer shall set a public
hearing, transmit the application directly to the city council, and mail a notice to the board of
adjustment and property owners adjacent to the subject property disregarding public rights
of way. The city council shall, within sixty (60) days of the public hearing, decide to affirm or
overturn the decision of the board of adjustment with a four-fifths (4/5) vote of the city
