minutes of a planning commission meeting held FEBRUARY 27, 1978 - PAGE 14 <br />Mr, Platteter was present. <br />e Zoning Administrator stated the proposed <br />ocatlon of the stable will require a 60 ft, and <br />a 20 ft, variance from the east and south lot <br />lines respectively. He noted that in the past <br />the City has had problems with the horses on <br />this property extending over the fence and eating <br />the neighbor’s vegetation before Mr, Platteter <br />owned this property. <br />Mr, Platteter pointed out on the survey the location <br />of the fence and stated he is proposing to remove <br />all the old fencing and replace it, * He explained <br />there is a great slope which dictates why he <br />is requesting a variance. He did not feel he could <br />move the bam. He stated he plans to have 2 mares, <br />2 gildings and 2 arabians. <br />The Zoning dministrator stated on this 7 acre <br />parcel, 5 horses would be allowed with a conditional <br />use permit. <br />Mr, Platteter stated he has talked with some <br />J>uilders who suggested the bam be 60 ft, x <br />>0 ft, to accommodate the 4 ft, modulars. Hew <br />explained these horses are show horses and do not <br />eat off the bround because they are on a constant <br />high protein feed. He added that he plans to keep <br />any ponies for 1-2 years. <br />Tim Adams asked how many acres of pasture there <br />would be. Mr. Platteter replied about 3-4 <br />acres. <br />The Commission discussed the amount of dry land <br />which could be used for pasture and how much <br />was wetlands. <br />Tim Adams stated they are only pasturing about \ <br />of the property, adding that the wetlands is good <br />for pasture and that the horses are there <br />frequently. <br />Q <br />Chairwoman (fcDonald asked how much would be fenced, <br />Mr. Platteter replied they plan 3 pastures, each <br />1/3 of the total area.
