This hearing is not intended to solicit additional input from the public <br /> or the applicant. While the BOCC may ask staff questions related to the review of a given item, <br /> comments from the public shall not be solicited. <br /> BACKGROUND: This item was presented at the February 24, 2014 Quarterly Public Hearing. <br /> The applicants, Mrs. and Mr. Donna and Donald Easterlin, operate a Class 11 Kennel at 5908 US <br /> Highway 70 East in the Eno Township. This kennel operates under an existing Class B Special <br /> Use Permit issued in 1986 to the original property owner. <br /> The UDO requires all Class 11 Kennels observe a 150 foot setback from all property lines for <br /> buildings or exercise yards. The current configuration of the exercise yards do not comply with <br /> this standard. <br />
