They propose construction of an animal sh«»lter 12'xl6' to house <br />their 2 pet goats. Per Section 10.20, Subdivision 3(K) 2 acres are re­ <br />quired per 1 animal (goat or sheep) unit. The goats are waiting in <br />California for their shelter to be built. Unfortunately, staff had to <br />advise of the required setback for animal barns from property lines. <br />The applicants note that the lot is 152 feet at the widest point. A <br />barn could never be constructed to meet the 150' setback but per Section <br />10.03, Subdivison 18(B) the barn is 150 feet or more from the nearest off­ <br />site residence. <br />If there is time, please ask Ms. Harris to tell you about these very <br />special goats, the special milking room within the house, pasterization of <br />milk and of cheese and yogurt making. <br />Staff recommends approval of the 88' or 22' variance setback for the <br />proposed 12'xl6' animal shelter for Wharton Sinkler and Margherita Gail <br />Harris to house their two pet goats based on the hardship of the narrow lot <br />width at a maximum width of 152 feet.
