The mobile clinic shall be parked to the side or rear of the residence, not in front of the residence, unless permitted otherwise in the permit. (2) For all zoning districts in which this use is permitted, observation shelters for up to three large or small animals shall be considered an accessory use. The permit may specify a greater number of observation shelters and may limit the maximum number of days an individual animal may be observed. (3) If adjacent to residentially zoned property, all mobile clinic operations shall be located a minimum of 100 feet from the property line. (4) Veterinary services whereby the public brings their animal to the mobile clinic location shall not be permitted, unless specifically permitted in the permit. 5.16.3 Veterinary Hospital (A) Standards for ASE-CZ Zoning District (1) In the ASE-CZ zoning district, this use is intended primarily for large animal facilities but may also contain an ancillary small animal component.

It should be noted that this standard will apply to areas outside of the rural buffer as well. However, the County Attorney’s office was not comfortable with using Comprehensive Plan land use classifications (e.g., “Rural Buffer”) as a basis of a standard. This comment also applies to the change made in 5.16.2 immediately below. It should be noted that these two uses are not permitted in the RB general use zoning district and are permitted in the Rural Buffer only through the ASE-CZ rezoning process.
