The comments are those that have been identified at this time. Additional comments may be added or eliminated based on further review. 1. The yard for small dogs is situated above an existing drainage easement. The small yard shall be relocated to maintaian unobstructed access to the drainage system on site. 2. It appears the site offers only a few parking spaces. If more parking spaces are proposed, all parking areas on site shall not exceed 5% grade in any direction. 3. The report shall address how waste is collected and removed from site for the two proposed materials, Pro - Green with Share Drainage Blanket and Surface Coating Pro. For example, the report describes turf that can be hosed off into a self contained drainage system. What is this drainage system? Also, it is difficult to tell on plans where the materials are proposed. Please label on plan. 4. The 6' fence is the only item proposed to mitigate noise. This is a tentative compliance under section 18.4.14 since operational methods are proposed to address noise. Compliance is based on a promise of good behavior. Careful consideration is recommended as this may place a policing burden on the neighbors and County staff. Compliance might be obtained by enclosed kennels or sound barriers. I recommend a noise study on an existing All Things Pawssible site.
