Project Contact Cotleur & Hearing Donaldson Hearing/Brett Leone 1934 Commerce Lane, Suite 1 Jupiter, FL 33458 561.747.6336 x 109 bleone@cotleur-‐hearing.com Fees: Text Amendment of LDRs $1,650.00 Legal Escrow $1,000.00 Advertising Escrow $1,000.00 TOTAL $3,650.00 Project Description The Applicant is requesting a Text Amendment of the Land Development Regulations (LDRs) to add a new definition for Pet Grooming Shop in Section 78-‐751, modify an existing use and add a new use to Section 78-‐159 -‐ Table 21: Permitted, Conditional, and Prohibited Use Chart. The Text Amendment would modify the existing use, Pet Grooming Shop, to further identify it as a Pet Grooming Shop (without Boarding). The new proposed use is Pet Grooming Shop (with Boarding). This proposed change would also amend Section 78-‐345 – Table 33. The table would be amended to add the new proposed use and provide for a parking ratio, which would be equivalent to Pet Grooming Shop at one space per 250 square feet. Furthermore, the Applicant is proposing to add a subsection to Section 79-‐159(j)-‐ Additional Standards to provide standards for the proposed Pet Grooming Shop (with Boarding) use. The proposed additional standards will provide guidelines that a potential operation would have to follow to be approved as a Major Conditional Use. Zoning Text Amendment CH – 160608 October 26, 2016 -‐ 2 -‐ Currently, the use, Pet Grooming Shop, is a permitted use within the CG-‐1 zoning district. The request would amend Sections 78-‐159 -‐ Table 21 and Section 78-‐221 by revising the existing Pet Grooming Shop use to include “without boarding” and adding the new proposed use, Pet Grooming Shop (with Boarding). In addition, the proposed Text Amendment would add Pet Grooming Shop (with Boarding) as a major conditional use within the PGA Overlay. Pet Grooming Shop, while not currently defined by the City’s Code, would generally entail the retail sale of pet accessories, leashes, food bowls, collars, treats, and other miscellaneous pet needs. These uses operate in a completely enclosed building and only maintain animals for a short period of time while the grooming is taking place. In addition to the above-‐mentioned retail associated with a Pet Grooming Shop, the Applicant is proposing to add a boarding component, thus creating the new proposed use of Pet Grooming Shop (with Boarding). A proposed definition is provided below. The proposed zoning text amendment is shown below in strike-‐through/underline format. Sec. 78-‐751 – Definitions. Pet Grooming Shop means an establishment where domestic animals are groomed, the retail sale of pet accessories and other miscellaneous pet needs, also may include the boarding of domestic animals (limited to cats, dogs and other domestic pets).
