How far is that from Whispering Pines? <br />Vic Knight: Probably at the closest point less than 300 feet. <br />Larry Wright: Your measurements, do they measure the impact of this kennel moving into that area? <br />Vic Knight: You are making an assumption that the improvements that are proposed…. <br />Larry Wright: I am asking do your measurements take into consideration before the kennel is there and what <br />happens to the property. How those property values were as opposed to after the kennel is there? <br />Vic Knight: No sir. You don’t do anything beforehand. The assumption is based on …. <br />Larry Wright: I’ve done a lot of research. You do want to have a benchmark so you are only measuring property <br />values after the kennel is in operation. <br />Vic Knight: It’s an assumption. <br />Larry Wright: So it is an assumption after …. <br />Vic Knight: The kennel facility doesn’t exist right now. <br />Larry Wright: I am talking about Whispering Pines. You have data here on Whispering Pines. You have not <br />measured it before that Sunny Acres Kennel became in operation. Is that right? <br />Vic Knight: That is right. <br />Larry Wright: So you have only measured it after they have been in full operation. <br />Vic Knight: I say during, there is no before. <br />Larry Wright: During full operation. <br />Vic Knight: Yes sir. <br />Larry Wright: So we do not have data on the impact of that kennel moving into the area, right? <br />Vic Knight: No. The base data is from … it is called parrot analysis. When you look at an existing neighborhood <br />that didn’t have any impact from a more intense use and then what happened, that intense use… <br />Larry Wright: We don’t have that with … <br />Michael Harvey: I am sorry to interrupt Dr. Wright, but I am assuming you are referring to the numbers that begin <br />on page 83 of the abstract? <br />Larry Wright: Yes.
