<br /> Application: Request to rezone from Agriculture to Rural Residential
<br /> Applicant: Alison and Brian Evenson
<br /> Background Information: The Evensons have entered into an agreement to sell 10
<br /> acres of the 18-acre parcel that they own. A dwelling is situated on the parcel to be sold
<br /> and a new dwelling is to be built on the remaining tract. The entire property is currently
<br /> zoned Agriculture,which requires a 20-acre minimum lot size. In order to complete the
<br /> sale,the subdivision needs to be approved. That can only happen if the property-is
<br /> rezoned to a classification with smaller lot sizes. The Rural Residential classification
<br /> allows lot sizes as small as five acres.
<br /> The following map shows the current land use as taken from satellite imagery. The
<br /> location of the Evenson parcel is indicated on the map.
