Facility and Boarding Facility."

boarded.overnight at any one time.

Since the April 16, 2008 Planning Commission meeting, staff has been coordinating with the applicant and property owner to incorporate the development standards required by the Planning Commission into the Official Development Plan. Additionally the applicant held an Open House on June 10, 2008, at the proposed dog day care site to allow residents of the apartment complex an opportunity to see the layout of the facility and how the site would function as a dog day care. One resident attended the open house and voiced concerns about noise. The applicant explained that the dogs would be housed inside the facility overnight and that improvements to the facility would include some sound proofing.
