COMPOSITE REPORT-Page 3 Application No. CUP 1457 DANE COUNTY PLANNING DIVISION STAFF COMMENTS I. BACKGROUND A. The applicant requests that conditions of approval for an existing CUP be amended to allow expansion of a dog kenneling, training, and pet food sales facility. Prior approvals permit a maximum of 55 dogs; the applicant would now like an increase to 100 dogs. More kenneling space and an indoor training/viewing/office facility are also proposed. B. The property has been subject to two recently approved rezoning and conditional use permit requests. In 1994, a portion of the current CUP area was rezoned to A-2(4) and CUP was granted for a 55 dog kennel. In 1996, an expanded site coterminous with the current CUP area was rezoned to A-2(8)to allow an outdoor training area and further expansion of the use. Conditions of approval for that CUP (1364) are as follows: 1. Kennel operation limited to 55 dogs. 2. Limited to 4 horses. 3. Boarding kennel, retail sales of pet supplies, food and related items. 4. Training of dogs. 5. Fence property sufficiently to keep dogs off neighboring property. 6.

The subject property is currently developed with a 7,000 sq. ft. kenneling facility(see Exhibit A). It also includes a residence and some smaller accessory buildings. The applicant has recently received a zoning permit to construct a garage and storage addition to the residence. Excavation has begun on this project. Some excavation work has also occurred in the area planned for the new kennel addition. Neither a zoning permit or an erosion control permit has yet been issued for this work. B. Exhibit A shows the applicant's submitted site plan. That site plan indicates that the existing building will be remodeled primarily for dog boarding, grooming, and storage. The plan also shows a proposed 6,000 sq. ft. addition to that building for more kenneling, and a new 7,100 sq. ft. building for indoor training, viewing, and client services. The plan includes only limited defined areas for parking, although the applicant indicates that field parking could be accommodated both south and west of the new training building. The area west of that building is also used as an outdoor training area. •
