Item No . 3 PC : 4-7-88 UP-88-18 Page 3 STAFF ANALYSIS BACKGROUND : This application is the result of an enforcement action, E-88-122 . There are no other records of past planning applica- tion actions on the project site. POLICY CONSIDERATIONS : General Plan and Zoning: The project site is shown as Agriculture on the General Plan map and is zoned GA-40 (General Agriculture) . This application was accepted under Section 9-4103 (b) , which permits kennels with approval of a Use Permit . There are two other pertinent sections of the Planning Title related to kennels : ( 1 ) Section 9-3234 , which requires the kennel to be 40 feet from the rear and side property lines, and ( 2 ) Section 9-3239 , which speci- fies the criteria for suspending or revoking a kennel Use Permit . The existing barn, which is to be modified to house the dogs, is 13 feet from the eastern property line . The eastern 27 feet of the barn will not be used house the dogs . This area of the barn will be utilized as a storage area and a place to mix the dogs ' food. AREA/NEIGHBORHOOD COMPATIBILITY: Land Use/Parcel Size : The proposed kennel is located on a five-acre parcel in an agricultural area of the County and is zoned GA-40 . The pro- ject site is within an older subdivision called Country Home Colony . The original lots in Country Home Colony, which was filed in 1926 , were from five to ten acres in size . As a result , some of the area has developed as rural residential with homes in close proximity to each other . The nearest resi- dence to the project site is located 40 feet from the eastern property line . Noise : Noise from barking dogs should be less of a problem because fencing is proposed to restrict the dogs ' sight into adjoining properties . Currently, there is a six-foot-high wooden fence extending north of the barn to the pump house . Additional
