100 COUNCIL MEETING May 27, 1986 Page Eleven PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD REPORT - PETE KLUEGEL' A. Variance - Dog Kennel, Jim Hill - Mr. Kluegel explained that Mr. Hill has requested a variance to the grandfather clause of the Kennel Ordinance. The variance would be required because the Hills have less than the required five acres for the Kennel License. The Planning and Zoning Board did review this request and recommended that this request be denied because the Hills have not proved the necessary hardship of the land and also be- cause it was determined that there was no valid pre- existing Kennel at the time of the ordinance change. Mr. Kluegel also noted that the dogs were not licensed at the time it came to his attention that the Hills were violating the Kennel Ordinance. Mr. Bisel called several of Mr. Hill's neighbors regarding whether or not the Hill's dogs were a nuisance. There seemed to be no problem in this area. In view of the fact that the Planning and Zoning Board recommended denial of the request and that the dogs were not originally li- censed, Mr. Bisel moved to deny the variance request. Mr. Marier seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. B. First Reading, Ordinance #04 - 86, Wayne Scanlan Proposal - Mr. Scanlan is owner of the White Bear Animal Hospital and is pro- posing to erect an animal clinic with facilities to house large animals for an extended period of time during treatment in the Light Industrial Zone south of the Red Door Antique facilities on Otter Lake Road. The present code does not allow animal clinics as a conditional use in the Light Industrial Zone, thereby prompt- ing this request for a code amendment. Mr. Kluegel explained if this request is granted, Mr. Scanlan will then present a request for a Conditional Use Permit and Site and Building Plan request for the animal clinic. The Planning and Zoning Board did recommend approval of the request. 1 Mr. Reinert felt this request was too vague. Did Mr. Scanlan pro- pose to build two huildings? Would large animals be boarded on -site? Since Mr. Scanlan was not present to answer these questions, Mr. Bisel moved to return the request to the Planning and Zoning Board to redefine the intent of the request. Mr. Marier seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. C. Set Public Hearing - Dennis Erickson Plat 1. Rezone from ER to R -1 - June 23, 1986, 7:30 P.M. 2.
