We were pleased to be able to state our case to the planning commission on Wednesday. Thank you Pat for your efforts to include us in this process. We were, however, very disappointed when the panel voted 6 to 1 to recommend this use permit. We are pretty sure that most, if not all the members would not want a business with 40 dogs(with the possibility of 80 in 2 years), in an old, non compliant building 4 feet from their yards, with virtually no buffer from the immanent "woofs" and odors that will certainly spill from indoors and outdoors. We are very concerned for the reasons we stated to the planning commission. As you may know, we as residents have struggled over the years(mostly futilely) to live harmoniously with the light industry which abut our homes /properties. Among our biggest frustrations is the fact that it falls to us to attempt(without much success) to police the codes and conditional use permits of these properties due to the failure of the city to both approve harmonious usage and to fail to enforce the codes, buffers, use permits, etc. 1
