CASE NO:ZA12-022
PROJECT:Southlake Crossing Animal Clinic
REQUEST:
Dr. Mark Cox, owner of Southlake Crossing Animal Clinic, is requesting approval of a
specific use permit to allow “kennels” at his current location. Zoning Ordinance 480, as
kennel
amended, defines as a commercial establishment in which dogs, cats, or
domesticated animals are housed, boarded, groomed, bred, trained, or sold all for a
fee or compensation. Grooming and boarding have been an ancillary service to clients
since the applicant opened his practice in Southlake in 1991.
Last year, grooming accounted for about 8% of revenue and boarding accounted for
about 4.3%. The purpose of this request is to enable the grooming and boarding
portion of the clinic to operate independently within the existing building. Grooming and
boarding can function as ancillary uses in a veterinarian clinic but if they are to function
as independent primary uses, they must be approved by specific use permit. The
applicant also plans to increase visibility by adding signage to the existing monument
sign (remaining within sign ordinance parameters).
There are no existing or proposed outdoor pens or dog runs. The applicant is not
proposing any structural changes to the interior or exterior of the building.
ACTION NEEDED:1. Conduct public hearing
2. Consider approval of the specific use permit
