I2egatlar City Council R~Ieeting 1Vlonday, January 14, 2008 Page 5 Discussion included advantages for municipal versus state adoption of such legis- lation and practical applications. Councilmember Pust thanked Ms. Edwards, and the Roseville School District for their involvement and cooperation. Council consensus was to hold further discussion once proposed ordinance lan- guage was drafted. b. Consider an ®rdanance to Fieaone and a IZesoiution Approving an Aanended Conditional 1Jse Pernnit (CUP) for Pet3enart, 2480 Fairview Avenue (PF07- 063) City Planner Thomas Paschke summarized the request of Faegre and Benson, on behalf of PetSmait, seeking approval of a TEXT AMENDMENT to Roseville City Code, Sections 1002 and 1005, pertaining to dog kemlels and boarding of animals; and an AMENDMENT to PetSmarts' CUP to allow the boarding of cats and dogs at their proposed site in Rosedale Commons, 2480 Fairview Avenue. Mr. Paschke noted that the Planning Commission had unanimously approved the request at their December 2007 meeting, with minor amendments; and that staff had since that meeting, worked with the City Attorney and made recommendation for code modifications to consider allowing pet boarding and dog day care; spe- cific to the definition of "Dog Kennel," adding pet boarding and dog day camp and/or daycare as accessory uses to Pet and Pet Supply Stores in order to be al- lowed through a CUP. Mr. Paschke presented a revised version, recommended by Councilmember Ihlan previously, of the proposed ordinance, that would amend language of Section 2, Section 1002.02 (Dog Kennel) exclusions to read: "...excluding pet boarding and/or dog day care as an accessory use to pet and pet supply store; "fexcept that such pet boarding or dog day care shall remain subiect to the licensing re- quirements of 501.19 of this Code.]" Councilmember Ihlan expressed further concern related to noise nuisances from barking dogs; and potential problems from pet feces. Discussion included code provisions that would apply to those concerns, as ad- dressed by City Attorney Anderson (501.03); application to private or residential versus commercial operations; zoning code amendment to approve specific uses and potential impacts to future uses in any business zone except B-6 allowing dog kennel classification, only through CUP's; license code application to smaller scale kennels, outside, not indoors; and the need for sufficient regulatory basis and standard criteria; and whether sufficient controls are in place.
