Item 05a - 19730 Judicial Rd CUP
City of Lakeville Community Development Memorandum To: Planning Commission Heather Botten, Senior Planner January 5, 2026 Packet Material for the January 15, 2026 Planning Commission Meeting John Kalthoff - Conditional Use Permit February 16, 2026 John Kalthoff has submitted an application on behalf of the property owner of 19730 Judicial Road for a conditional use permit (CUP) to allow the construction of a detached accessory building to have a combined accessory structure square footage greater than the gross floor area of the principal structure. The property is 11.41 acres in area and is zoned RA, Rural/Agricultural District. The applicant is proposing to construct a 3,024 square foot (72’ x 42’) detached accessory building and with the existing attached garage (768 square feet), there would be a total of about 3,792 gross square feet of accessory buildings. According to Dakota County GIS, the finished square footage of the home is 3,076 square feet. City code allows the combined accessory building square footage to exceed the size of the principal structure by CUP. The property owner has stated the proposed building would be used for family recreational purposes and personal storage. The following exhibits are attached for your review: Exhibit A – Location/Aerial Map Exhibit B – Application Narrative Exhibit C – Site Plan Exhibit D – Building Floor and Elevation Plans The subject property includes a single-family home with an attached garage, and a 160-square-foot shed that will be removed once the new building is constructed. 2 Unimproved 197th Street runs through the southern portion of the property. The property is a legal conforming metes and bounds described (unplatted) parcel. Adjacent land uses and zoning are as follows: – Single-Family Home (RA) Single-Family Homes (RA) Single-Family Homes (RA) Judicial Road, Single Family Home (Scott County) The request is to construct a detached accessory building roughly 3,024 square feet in size. The total combined accessory building area, including the attached garage and proposed detached accessory building is about 3,792 gross square feet. Within the RA District, the total allowable combined accessory building square footage is 8,712 square feet or the gross floor area of the home, whichever is less. In this case, the house has a gross floor area of 3,076 square feet, which is then the maximum size of combined accessory buildings allowed without a conditional use permit. The minimum setback for an accessory structure in the RA District is 30 feet from the front lot line abutting street right of way and 10 feet from the interior side and rear lot lines. The proposed structure exceeds the minimum setback requirements and would be located over 400 feet from the closest neighboring home. The property is 11.41 acres in area with over 60 feet of grade change throughout the property. The property includes stands of mature trees that will screen the building from the north, east, and Judicial Road. The property owner is also planning to install a privacy fence along the westerly side of the property for additional screening. The existing driveway access from Judicial Road will not change. The proposed structure will be a metal-sided, pole constructed building complying with zoning code requirements. A maximum building height of 20 feet is allowed for detached accessory buildings in the RA, Rural/Agricultural District. The Zoning Ordinance allows the accessory building area requirements to be exceeded by conditional use permit subject to the following criteria as listed in Section 11-18-5 of the Zoning Ordinance: 3 The property owner has indicated a need for the proposed size of building to store personal items and for indoor family recreational purposes. The applicant has stated the accessory building is for personal use. No home occupation or storage of commercial vehicles or equipment is allowed in any accessory building on the property. The proposed accessory building space has the evident function of creating storage of personal equipment for this property. The proposed square footage is compatible with the rural character of the property, lot size, and neighborhood. The proposed accessory building square footage is consistent with other similar conditional use permits approved on similar properties. The proposed building would be compatible with adjacent residential uses and accessory buildings. The location exceeds minimum setback requirements, and the structure would be constructed in compliance with building code requirements. The provisions of section 11-4-7 of the Zoning Ordinance (Conditional Use Permits) have been considered and satisfactorily met. Please refer to the attached findings of fact. Community Development Department staff recommends approval of the conditional use permit to allow the gross square feet of accessory buildings to exceed the square footage of the principal structure located at 19730 Judicial Road, subject to the following stipulations: 1. The accessory building shall be constructed in the location identified on the site plan approved with the conditional use permit. 4 2. The detached accessory building shall be kept, used, and maintained in a manner that is compatible with the existing single-family home on the property and shall not present a hazard to the public health, safety and general welfare. 3.

No home occupation shall be conducted within any attached or detached accessory building on the property.
