In fact, they were built after the Sunny Acres Pet Resort opened, weren’t <br />they? <br /> <br />Vic Knight: The tax information shows the existence of buildings here that go back over 30 years. I don’t know how long it <br />actually operated but it originally started out as a kennel facility in the condition that it is today because they have assembled <br />prosperities, the owners of that facility have assembled properties over several years to create that entire component. <br /> <br />Rob Maitland: But each and every home that you put in your report was bought and sold after the pet resort was opened, <br />correct? <br /> <br />Vic Knight: Probably, yes. <br /> <br />Rob Maitland: So the impact on that resort, if there is one, would already have been reflected in the buy price before they <br />bought so what is the purpose? <br /> <br />Vic Knight: Because you are comparing this particular location with what is happening …… <br /> <br />Rob Maitland: In the whole county. <br /> <br />Vic Knight: No. You are comparing that with, in the case of Hampton Point, what happened there. <br /> <br />Rob Maitland: Where is the pet resort located in the yellow box of that commercial park, do you know? <br /> <br />Vic Knight: There are actually a couple of residential pieces into here. They have an open facility in here. There are <br />actually a couple of buildings there and as you can tell there are others into here. They actually have several scattered <br />locations. The main facility is further in the back. <br /> <br />Rob Maitland: It is the very far back right corner, right? <br /> <br />Vic Knight: There are several buildings that are there. <br /> <br />Rob Maitland: And they are all for the pet resort? <br /> <br />Vic Knight: I just said they bought several pieces and they bought these pieces and some of them have residential homes <br />on them. <br /> <br />Rob Maitland: I am asking where the pet resort is being operated. <br /> <br />Vic Knight: The main facility is here but there are other buildings they have that appear to be part of the operation. They <br />have driveways and parking areas that are relatively large. <br /> <br />Rob Maitland: And the distance between here and here as opposed to here and here? About a half a mile? <br /> <br />Vic Knight: I believe I scaled it about four tenths of a mile. <br /> <br />Rob Maitland: Okay. What is this area zoned? <br /> <br />Vic Knight: One of the Economic Development Districts. <br /> <br />Rob Maitland: This is a district that has developed or has been zoned with the intention to encourage development. This <br />home is located in a zone that is designated rural buffer zone and yet somehow these are similar. <br /> <br />Vic Knight: It is the body of the sales information that exists, didn’t make them up. <br />
