Also present was Zoning Administrator Hank Muhich. Chairwoman McDonald announced that this was the time and place for a public hearing on the petition of Wayside Kennels for a transfer of a conditional use permit of property located at 3505 Wayzata Boulevard. The Zoning Administrator presented the Notice of Public Ifearing and the i'^fi davit of Piilication. The Fulmer’s have purchased this property from Norman Larson and are requesting approval for a transfer of the existing non-conforming use. Dr. Fulmer was presort and introduced his son and daughter-in-law, Brian and Cathy Fulmer, who will be running the kennel operation. The applicants presented a sketch of a sign they are proposing to use in place of all the signs now posted on the building and the property. The Planning Commission agreed that it would be an improvement. The size of the sign appeared to meet the code requirements. The name of the kennel would be changed from Wayside Kennels to the Dog House Boarding Kennels. The Planning Commission opened the discussion to the public. Dick Selhost, who owns property to the south of the kennel, and Angie Koenig were present. Mr. Selhost expressed his coTicem regarding noise, odor and general appearance of the property. In response, Brian Fulmer stated that they are aware of the problems of the past operation such as noise and odor. He asked that everyone bear with them imtil they have cleaned up the premises. Tliis is something that will take awhile. The reason they purchased the property was because they would like to fix it up in the way they feel a kennel operation should be and feel tliat it will be a good business for the community. They plan to lower the ceiling in the main building and insulate the walls vhich would reduce the noise factor. They will also be living on the property and will be affected by the noise also and will attempt to control this. The applicant also reaffirmed the fact that this would be a boarding operation with a maximum of 60 dogs. This maximum capacity would very seldom occur except possibly on holidays and some weekends. The outside nins will be concrete as well as the inside. The dogs will be inside after a reasonable hour. The operation would be open to the public and staff for inspection. ATTENDANCE - 7:30 P.M.
