Pet Day Care Receives Approval Recommendation

Charlies Dog House, a dog daycare facility is seeking to open a business at 140 W. Terra Cotta Avenue. The services will provide care for animals dropped off or boarded for a short period of time. A small portion of the building is also used by Union Pacific Railroad. The petitioner is requesting a variation in order to use the vacant building.

Nearby neighbors expressed concern that the passing trains may cause the dogs to make noise which could be disturbing to the residents. The petitioner explained that the dogs would not be out of doors all the time and the noise inside the building is not audible on the exterior.

The Planning and Zoning Commission is recommending the requested rezoning for the dog care facility. The final decision is up to the City Council.
