Chairman Blume asked Terry Reed who was representing himself in the current petition to explain the current petition due to a few members who were not in attendance at the last meeting where the topic was discussed. Terry Reed indicated to the Plan Commission that he was trying to rezone 5 acres more or less which contains the existing home from A-1 Ag to AR-1 Ag Residential for the purpose of making the parcel conforming. The petition was to rezone 5 acres more or less which contains the existing home from A-1 Ag to AR-1 Ag Residential being in part of the SW/SE of S7-T6N-R4E in the Town of Dodgeville.

Curt Peterson made a motion to recommend the approval of the rezoning of the 5 acres more or less which contains the existing home from A-1 Ag to AR-1 Ag Residential being in part of the SW/SE of S7-T6N-R4E with the remaining required acreage being put into the conservancy district or overlay district.

The Planning Commission members discussed prior applications that have non-compliant deed restrictions that have not been recorded with the Register of Deeds. John Crook made a motion to recommend to the Town Board that we provide a copy of these non-compliant deed restrictions to Scott Godfrey at Iowa County Planning and Development. This record would be placed in their records to put the general public on alert of the unrecorded deed restriction. Where applicable the Planning Commission may recommend a conditional approval on rezoning petitions pursuant to the recording of the deed restriction. A copy of the recorded document shall be given to the Town Clerk/Treasurer to be placed in their file at the town hall. Laura Jean Blotz seconded the motion. Motion carried.
