LA18-000035 April 16, 2018 Page 6 of 6 Conditional Use Permit and Site Plan Analysis All uses have impacts, and uses within a commercial district can expect a certain elevated level of traffic, noise, and lighting over residential uses. This proposed use may generate additional impacts over these 'normal' impacts with dog barking, and smells sometimes associated with animals and animal boarding. The applicants are well aware of the noise concerns, and has taken multiple steps to address these through building design and operations. The applicant should describe the sound mitigation strategies so the Planning Commission understands the proposal. The site will be improved by building a new accessory structure for year round indoor play for the animals and privacy fencing surrounding and enclosing the property. Waste will be picked up and disposed of in the garbage. Liquid waste will filter through to the ground. The trash enclosure, proposed at the north corner of the building, may need to be relocated to accommodate clearer traffic movement. The trash enclosure will be screened with white privacy fence. The applicants are proposing to eliminate one existing stall so the site will have a total of 7 stripped stalls. The Planning Commission should discuss how the parking applies to the site. Public Comments To date, no public comments have been received. Issues for Consideration 1. The Planning Commission should discussion the Parking Analysis and determine if more parking stalls should be required as proof of parking for future use. A potential condition to be added could be: A re -review of the Conditional Use Permit can be done at any time if the city receives complains about parking on the site. Additional parking may be required to be installed) 2. Does the Planning Commission find the proposed use addresses the standards for Conditional Use Permit and Site Plan approval, and thus are appropriate uses on the property? 3. Does the Commission find it necessary to impose conditions in order to mitigate the impacts created by the granting of the requested conditional use permit? Planning Commission options for consideration Planning Department Staff recommends approval of the Conditional Use Permit and Site Plan Review for "DogHaven", subject to the following conditions: 1. The operator maintains the annual kennel license. Failure to maintain the kennel license shall render the Conditional Use Permit to lapse. 2. Dogs shall be supervised while outdoors at all times. 3. All MCWD requirements are met. 4. Re -strip the parking lot to improve and identify the parking stalls. List of Exhibits Exhibit A. Application Exhibit B.
