Consideration of Ordinance #13 - 84, Kennel License Ordinance. Mr. Kluegel explained this draft ordinance had been before the Council and had been returned to the Planning and Zoning Board for further consideration regarding Kennels on one acre lots in the rural area. The Planning and Zoning Board has affirmed this Ordinance and especially the five acre minimum lot size. As far as lots under five acres, there is the variance procedure and they should be handled on individual basis treating them as the exception and not the rule. All kennels existing at this time are grandfathered in. Mr. Reinert asked why have the ordinance if you are going to treat- each case individually. Mayor Benson felt it was a backward way of handling these cases. Mr. Paul Haward from the audience felt the Ordinance was too restrictive in that it also requires each dog to be licensed. Mrs. Evelyn Christianson from Elm Street felt the Ordinance was building in extra work and felt the present method would be move appropriate. Mr. Marier moved to adopt Ordinance #13 - 84. Mr. Kulaszewicz seconded the motion. Motion carried with Mayor Benson voting no. 077
