5. PUBLIC HEARINGS:
A. CU-05-11 -Pet Grooming/Boarding Facility (Kennel) -Melinda Carlson: Melinda Carlson is
requesting conditional use permit approval to operate a pet grooming/boarding facility (kennel)
for The Spoiled Dog Pet Salon. The 3.69-acre site is located on the north side of East State
Street approximately 530-feet east of Edgewood Lane at 1750 East State Street.
Chairman Smith introduces the time.
Melinda Carlson, is the owner of The Spoiled Dog Pet Salon, and proposing to open a boarding and
grooming facility in Eagle. Discussion regarding interior and exterior set up of the facility, sound
mitigation for barking dogs, services provided, the disposal of pet waste.
Zoning Administrator Vaughan reviews the staff report. Vaughan provides a brief review of Eagle City
Code and the applicability to the proposed conditional use permit.
Chairman Smith opens the public hearing.
Guy Hendrickson 1772 S. Lakemore Way Eagle, Idaho. Mr. Hendrickson owns the property located at
454 W. Conover in Eagle which abuts the proposed application. He does not remember the auto body
repair shop, but he does remember the cabinet business being in this location. There were issues with
noise and odors from the cabinet owner. He states that as a rental property owner, to have commercial
Page 1 of 3
K:\P&Z\MINUTES\Temporary Minutes Work Area\PZ-10-17-11min.doc
uses abutting the rental homes is difficult. Better transitional business near residential would be
preferred. He does not have a problem with the grooming aspect of the proposed conditional use permit,
but does have issue with the kennel aspect, specifically because of waste removal and the noise. There is
an open ditch that Mr. Hendrickson is concerned that animal waste would contaminate. Noise is his
greatest concern, even if the noise is within legal limits. He feels a different location within this site
would be more preferable as it would be farther away from his residential property.
Tina Cunningham, 485 Conover Eagle, Idaho. Ms. Cunningham's concerns are similar to Mr.
Hendrickson. She has had problems with other tenants in the Andon Complex regarding vapors and
smells. If the dogs were kept inside she would be more in favor of the application, but she understands
that that is not the nature of dogs.
Melinda Carlson rebuts testimony given tonight. Ms. Carlson reviews the plan for the outside fenced
area that the animals will be allowed to use. The animals will not be allowed outside unsupervised.
There is a large area of indoor space that will be utilized the majority of the time by the dogs. She
understands the concerns expressed by Mr. Hendrickson and hopes that she has eased his mind that the
dogs will not be allowed outside en mass. There will be a fence that extends 16' from the building; there
will be a 4' walkway that will run between the fence and the arborvitae, so the dogs will not be relieving
themselves near the open ditch. Fire Marshall Kurt McClenny visited the site with Vaughan Carlson and
they received an e-mail from Mr. McClenny stating that it would be okay to utilize part of the alleyway.
Staff will follow up with the Fire Marshall to get a formal letter to include in the record that will be
forwarded to the City Council when this application moves forward.
Vaughan Carlson provides additional clarification. There will be no pet doors, they are "man doors".
Guy Hendrickson would like to know where the dumpster for this site is located. It was helpful to know
that the dogs will not have access to the open ditch as he previously voiced concern over. The removal
of waste and smell is still a concern, as is the noise issue.
Tina Cunningham provides comment regarding a gate located near the property and its need for repair.
Melinda Carlson shows a photo of where the trash enclosure is located on site. She also states that she
will be easily accessible; her phone number will be listed on site, so people with concerns could contact
her. This business is her livelihood and passion and she wants to make it succeed and be a good
neighbor.
Chairman Smith closes the public hearing.
Discussion amongst the Commission. Tanner applauds Ms. Carlson for wanting to start a business in
Eagle especially in these economic times. He has some concern with the noise issue and mitigation.
Aizpitarte has similar issues to Tanner. He would like to see some restrictions on the number of dogs
outside and one time and the time they let outside. Roehling appreciates the participation from those in
attendance this evening and is in hopes that something can be crafted and forwarded to the elected
officials for consideration and final action. Smith would like to see the walls sound rating calculated to
eliminate any guess work regarding sound. General discussion.
Roehling moves to recommend approval of CU-05-11 -Pet Grooming/Boarding Facility(Kennel)-
Melinda Carlson: with the following site specific conditions of approval to be added: Site specific
condition #6: There will be a maximum of twenty-four(24) dogs on site for boarding,and a
maximum of eight(8)dogs on site for grooming at any one time. Site specific condition#7: There
will be a maximum of six(6) dogs allowed outside at any one time. Site specific condition #8: No
animals will be allowed outside between 9:30 p. m and 6:00 a.m. Site specific condition #9: Any
solid waste is required to be cleaned up immediately from the dog run area. Seconded by
Aizpitarte. Discussion. Roehling requests that Vaughan restate the items discussed by the
Commission. Vaughan reads from his notes the following: In addition to#6 which is a maximum of 24
dogs on site for boarding, a maximum of 8 on site for grooming. #7: A maximum of 6 dogs outside at
any one time. #8: No animals outside between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. #9: Any solid was
Page 2 of 3

shall be cleaned up immediately from the dog run area. #10: The applicant shall submit a letter of
approval from the Eagle Fire Department approving the use prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate.
Modify#4: to read: The applicant shall provide a plan indicating how noise on the inside of the facility
will not emanate outward and odor from the disposal of the animal feces will be addressed prior to the
