off an area around an existing building. Discussion took place about agricultural
zoning and the minimum lot size according to our ordinances. Hayden spoke
about wanting to purchase this building from the cranberry marsh and use the
building as a physical therapy clinic and office. This also relates to agenda item

rezone as the new lot would not meet the minimum requirement to stay
agriculture zoning.

– Hayden spoke about this request as well and this was the same situation as the
agenda item 3 above. The CSM showed both new parcels and plan commission
discussed the requirements to stay zoned agricultural. The recommendation is
to rezone the new lot as it does not meet the minimum lot size for agricultural.
5. Discussion and possible recommendation for a conditional use permit from
Hayden Biegel to change the use of an existing building to an outpatient
physical therapy office – Hayden spoke about the using the existing building as a
physical therapy clinic and office. Plan commission discussed and reviewed the
agricultural zoning ordinance and found the professional office conditional use
could apply to this application. Hayden expressed interest in purchasing the
building from the cranberry marsh as well. Motion Evenson second Muleski to
approve the conditional use permit for 120 days so Hayden can begin using the
building. Motion carried.
6. Discussion and possible recommendation for a conditional use permit from
Marlene Dempze permit to build a single-family residence, short-term rental-
Commission and Hayden discussed this request as it relates to agenda item 4.
Determined the current use of the house will fit within the residential zoning if
that is approved, and a conditional use permit will not be needed at this time.
The commission determined when the property begins to be used as a short
term rental then a conditional use permit could be applied for.
