DRAFT -4- <br />157 development at the end of Eubanks Road at 1 -40 and 86. Things are going to change. The city <br />158 has definitely moved out our way. I am hoping we are not changing it too much. We are trying <br />159 to stay as far away from Millhouse as we can. As far as being able to see our facility, you <br />160 should not be able to see it at all from the main road. We are back in the woods. My husband <br />161 and I and my dad have tried to meet with most of our neighbors before tonight to go over the <br />162 plans with them and answer any questions they had. My neighbor Neal had a bunch of <br />163 technical questions so we had Chad come out and meet with him to go over any concerns he <br />164 had. The reason we want to build this business is my husband had a job over in China <br />165 developing wind bars and we were living over there a couple of years. We just got back last <br />166 year and we need a new business and we thought this would be a lot of fun to do. It has been <br />167 in the back of my mind for a long time. In our lives now, it seems like the right fit and time. We <br />168 have two boys, ages 11 and 14 and we want to see a business they can work in through high <br />169 school and their friends can work in so we can keep an eye on them. My husband used to be a <br />170 K -9 handler, a police officer in California so we have been around dogs our whole lives basically <br />171 and it seems like the right fit for us now. You will see the site plan in a few minutes and more <br />172 detail. <br />173 <br />174 Bob Hornik: Can you explain where you live in relation to the site? <br />175 <br />176 Tammy Purner: If you see the red star, which is the site of the kennel itself. To the left is the <br />177 pond and up to the left of the pond is my house. This 15 acres basically borderlines my <br />178 property on the east and the west.sides. <br />179 <br />180 Bob Hornik: Does your father still live ... <br />181 <br />182 Tammy Purner: My father lives over the river and through the woods. My parents are the only <br />183 house we can see from our house. They are just to the north. Our house, which is off this map, <br />184 the bare in the area you see is my Dad's barn and a field and his garden. <br />185 <br />186 Bob Hornik: Just to the south of this site, is that the property? <br />187 <br />188 Tammy Purner: The County of Orange owns that. <br />189 <br />190 Bob Hornik: (inaudible) <br />191 <br />192 Tammy Purner: They will eventually develop; they claim to put park land there like soccer <br />193 fields. <br />194 <br />195 Bob Hornik: You talked a little about Spence's Farm and Waldorf School. Can you tell the <br />196 board where they are in location to the property? <br />197 <br />198 Tammy Purner: About Y mile north on Millhouse Road, which is the main winding road there, <br />199 there's Spence's Farm and Waldorf School is attached or adjacent to it. <br />200 <br />201 Bob Hornik: How about where the Orange County Operations Center is in connection to the <br />202 property? <br />203 <br />204 Tammy Purner: Across the railroad tracks. <br />205 <br />206 Bob Hornik: And you think it is a little further south... <br />207 <br />208 Tammy Purner: Then the county landfills are the other property that is up against the county <br />209 land. <br />210 <br />OC Board of Adjustment — 5/14/2012 Page 4 of 41 <br />
