Background Information:
This property was formally used as a day care for children. The property owner is proposing to use the existing building as a grooming facility at this time, and add a parking lot to the rear of the property. The applicant has stated that they may construct a new structure in the future that would conform to the regulating plan.
The current zoning, Neighborhood Commercial, does not allow for animal care facilities. Neighborhood-Main Street does allow for indoor animal care. Due to the location within an Existing Neighborhood on the Preferred Scenario Map, an Existing Neighborhood Regulating Plan is required to accompany the request. Any development of the site must comply with the attached Regulating Plan, in which the applicant identified the potential future building type as Neighborhood Shopfront.
