Morrison County’s Board of Adjustment granted Ryan and Caitlin Strandberg a variance to allow their non‑feedlot residence to remain within the feedlot setback after the owners plan to sell the dairy operation, with the board noting variances run with the land and suggesting easement arrangements for shared utilities.
The full story
The Morrison County Board of Adjustment on July 7 approved a variance permitting Ryan and Caitlin Strandberg to separate their residence from a tier‑2 dairy feedlot and retain the home on a five‑acre parcel while the contiguous feedlot operation is sold. Land services staff told the board the dairy farm sits on about 70.59 acres and that the nearest animal holding area is approximately 125 feet from the home, short of the 660‑foot setback normally required for a non‑feedlot residence adjacent to a tier‑2 feedlot.
