Summary

The Marathon City Plan Commission voted June 23 to forward a Conditional Use Permit for Alex and Dana Blume’s event venue, The Blume Barn, to the Village Board after adding Condition G, which triggers review if the parcel is split or altered.

The Marathon City Plan Commission voted June 23 to send a draft Conditional Use Permit for Alex and Dana Blume, dba The Blume Barn, to the Village Board for final approval after adding a new restriction on parcel changes. The motion to forward the permit passed by voice vote; M. Telford moved and M. Ahrens seconded.

Administrator S. Cherek presented a revised CUP that incorporated the commissioners’ prior concerns and explained a new Condition G. "Condition G states that in the event of a split, subdivision or alteration in size or configuration of the parcel, the CUP shall be subject to review and may be deemed null and void by the Village Board," Cherek said. The change means any future subdivision or reconfiguration of the property could require the Village Board to reconsider whether the CUP remains valid.

The action forwards the permit; the Village Board will take the final decision. The agenda item listed the applicants as Alex and Dana Blume and identified the business as The Blume Barn. No vote tally by name was recorded beyond the motion and second recorded in the meeting minutes.
