We received comments from Mr. <br />Tony Blake, which are contained in Attachment 2. <br /> <br />Staff is scheduled to meet again with Orange County Animal Services Director, Mr. Bob Marotto, <br />to continue discussion on possible modification of kennel regulations. Staff will provide an <br />update at a future regular meeting as new information becomes available. <br /> <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: Consideration of this item, and the processing of any amendments <br />generated as a result of this discussion, will not create the need for additional funding for the <br />provision of County services. Existing Planning will accomplish any work associated with the <br />development of text amendments arising out of this discussion. <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): The Planning Director recommends the Board receive the update <br />and provide additional feedback as necessary. <br />16
