They could go through the special use process but would like to rezone to avoid coming forward in the future with more special use permits.

Donn / Lydelle Berquist (Barnes) – storage (boats, mini-storage) (in existing building) [a 5.37-acre parcel (Tax ID #3335), described as Lot 3 of Assessor’s Plat except that portion lying N of Lake Rd in V.1110 P.420, Section 7, Township 44 North, Range 9 West, Town of Barnes, Bayfield County, WI] Schierman stated the department received a letter from the applicant asking to table the application due to not receiving the notification of a Town meeting. (Schierman read the letter. See attachment A). Jardine stated that he remembers this same thing happening a few years ago. He doesn’t want to table he would like to get this done and over with. Pocernich agrees, just because they didn’t show up at a Town meeting doesn’t mean they have to deny it. He asked Furtak about the property. Furtak explained that the previous owner erected the buildings to store his antique farm equipment. There is an RV park there with 21 sites and the Health department thought his antiques were hazards being stored outside. It was understood that whoever rented an RV space could store their boat in the buildings but they couldn’t do a mini storage. The chairman of Barnes has sent photographs of the property and a lot of the stuff that was stored in the buildings is now back being stored outside and feel it is unsightly. It is a high residential area on Middle Eau Clair Lake. Also we tell the applicants it Page 4 of 4 ZC Planning and Zoning Public Hearing and Meeting – December 19, 2013 is their responsibility to find out when the plan commission meetings are and when the Town meetings are. We noticed them of our meeting and when they come see me and I tell them. They can also talk with the Town Clerk. Schierman stated this application has been in the office since October 22nd. Jardine stated ten years ago didn’t the zoning committee and the town and the people around there sign a waiver that they were not going to use it for a rental type thing. Rondeau stated this is the Buck –N-Bass. There were problems in the past and it is important to table and hear from the people and once they give us what they want to do we have to check up on it. Jardine agrees and remembers the buildings didn’t meet setbacks. Furtak explained the buildings did meet setbacks but they wanted to create another lot and couldn’t. Jardine motioned to table regretfully since he would like to deal with this but seeing that the applicants were out of town and the Town acted without them. Rondeau seconded. No further discussion. Motion carried. 3/1 Rondeau, Jardine, Schultz – favor. Pocernich – opposed. 11.
