Planning Commission Minutes — October 13, 2005 Page 3 The CD Intern explained to the Commission that Guy and Cindy LaBarre of Oneka Pet Resort purchased the property from the City. According to the agreement, Oneka Pet Resort has until September 2006 to construct a building on the site. The building would serve as a commercial kennel that provides boarding facilities and additional pet pampering services for the dogs and cats of pet owners. He explained that the CUP and site plan would be contingent on the approval of the preceding text amendment by the City Council. The proposed building would include a 150 square foot enclosed waste, recycling and storage structure and a 4,000 square foot outdoor pet exercise and play area. The play area, located to the exterior of the building, would be enclosed by a 10' foot high wall constructed of the same materials and matching colors as the principle structure. The rear and side yard would be surrounded by a six foot high chain link fence. The proposed fence would meet all setbacks and height and building material requirements as outlined in the City's fencing ordinance and the restrictive covenants for the Industrial Park. The Intern explained that the parking ordinance did not address parking spaces for kennels. Staff calculated the required amount of spaces on 2,400 square feet of office space and the 4,000 square feet of warehouse space, which resulted in approximately 24 spaces. The proposed site plan showed 26 spaces. The landscape plan showed the appropriate quantities of trees but did not show the sizes and types. Staff recommended, as a condition of approval, a complete landscape plan be submitted as well as a revised grading and utility plan showing infiltration on the site. The Intern also noted that they needed to provide a screening plan for the rooftop mechanical units. Rosenquist questioned why an incomplete application was brought before the Commission. The CDD explained that staff was working with the applicant on outstanding issues. Rosenquist questioned the location of the dumpsters, which appeared to be blocking parking spaces, whether the dumpsters were covered, and asked where the infiltration on the site would take place. The area on the plan where the dumpsters where shown was not being counted as a parking space and the dumpsters were not to be covered. The Intern showed on the plan where the infiltration area would be and said the City Engineer indicated that infiltration on the site would be no problem. McRoberts requested that applications be complete prior to coming to the Commission for approval, and asked for affirmation that there were no adjoining residential parcels. The CDD assured him there were not. Schumann opened the public hearing. Andy Faulkner, Faulkner Construction, said they were looking into what types of trees and shrubs could withstand the conditions of a kennel and he showed the line of site drawings for the
