• Planning & Zoning Board April 11, 1984 Page -2- CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT - KENNEL LICENSE - JOANNE BUCHOLZ Ms. Bucholz appeared before the Board on March 14, 1984 requesting a Con- ditional Use Permit for a Kennel License for a lot she is purchasing in Arena Acres where she plans to build a new house. The Board had a quest- ion regarding issuing a Kennel License on a non - conforming lot in an ER area. Mr. Hawkins, City Attorney had explained that it would be difficult to uphold the proposed change in the ordinance but did not address this particular situation. Mr. Prokop asked Mr. Kluegel, based upon the present Kennel Ordinance as it now stands would Ms. Bucholz application be an approvable application even though her lot is a non - conforming lot due to its size? Mr. Kluegel said, yes. The lot is grandfathered in since it is a lot of record. Mr. Prokop continued; the lot itself, size wise, is not up to the ER requirement, so in that sense it is a non- conforming lot. If you put a Kennel on that lot would it be a further intensification of a non - conforming use? The Clerk told the Board she had spoken to the City Administrator about this issue and he had said you have to deal with the ordinance as it now stands and the ordinance does not mention non - conforming lots as eliminated from the Kennel provisions. Ilir. Kluegel noted that in the present ordinance Kennel licenses are listed s a Conditional Use in an ER area. The Board has already granted Kennel licenses on non- conforming lots in an ER area. Mr. McLean asked if a Kennel license has already been approved in an ER area on a non - conforming lot. It was pointed out that one was approved on Elbe Street within the past few months. This is an ER area and the lot is one third of an acre. A precedence has been set. Mr. Prokop moved to recommend to Council that the petition of Joanne Bucholz dated February 24, 1984 for a Conditional Use Permit for a Kennel License to have three small house dogs to comply with the City requirements for a Kennel License over two dogs, the dogs are to be housed indoors and no outside kennels built be approved. Mrs. Klaus seconded the motion. Mr. Ostlie asked Ms. Bucholz if there would be a problem with the limit of just three dogs. Ms. Bucholz said that would not be a problem. She would not be breeding dogs. On the motion, motion declared passed. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT - KENNEL LICENSE - HELEN ELLEDGE /LORRAINE KAMMERER Mr. Kluegel explained Mrs. Elledge is requesting a Conditional Use Permit for a Kennel License for three dogs. The property is located at 7790 Lake Drive which is zoned ER and contains two acres. Mrs. Elledge said she does 411 of plan to breed dogs and will have only the three dogs. It was noted that Mrs. Larraine Kammerer is the property owner and the app- lication should be changed to relect that this is a request by Mrs.Kammerer rather than Mrs. Elledge.
