r <br />Zoning File 933 <br />Conditional Use Permit <br />Ned Butterfield <br />3745 Watertown Road <br />Page 2 of 2 <br />The lot size is 4.6 acres in the 5-acrc zone. Because the <br />drawing submitted (Exhibit E) is not to scaler it is not clear what <br />the proposed setbacks are. Do you feel that the side setbacks should <br />be 50'r as they are for a principal structure in the RR-IA district/ <br />or should they be 10', treating the greenhouse as an accessory <br />structure? Also, note that the new greenhouse must be set back a <br />minimum of 20' from the other greenhouses (fire code) or at least 10' <br />if a 1-hour fire wall is provided. Can the applicant locate the <br />greenhouse to meet these setbacks? <br />Do you have any thoughts on screening of this property? Do you <br />feel screening is necessary? Note that Subdivision 10.20 (E) states <br />that commercial greenhouses may be allowed as a conditional uso <br />"provided (that) all outside storage is fenced in such a manner so as <br />to screen the stored material from view when observed from the public <br />street or adjoining lot". <br />Exhibit H shows the general location of the septic systems <br />serving the property as far as we know. There appears to be a tank <br />and drainfield serving the greenhouses, which system appears located <br />within the confines of the building. The drainfield location is <br />unknown, and we don't have a good idea as to the level of use of this <br />system. Perhaps the applicant can enlighten us. At any note, there <br />would appear to be suitable areas of Lester loam soils further south <br />on the property if this system needs replacement at some future date. <br />If you wish to recommend approval of this application, you should <br />resolve any outstanding questions discussed above, and be able to <br />find: <br />1. That the proposed location of the conditional use is in <br />accord with the objectives of the Zoning Chapter and the purposes <br />of the district in which the site is located and Comprehensive <br />Municipal Plan; <br />2. That the proposed location of the conditional use and the <br />proposed condition under which it would be operated or maintained <br />would not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, <br />or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the <br />vicinity; and. <br />3. That the proposed conditicnal use will comply with each of <br />the applicable provisions of the Zoning Chapter. <br />N.l <br />J
