   (B)   Small animals and fowl units per parcel. The Planning Commission may consider additional small animals and fowl units per parcel through a conditional use permit application process. The Planning Commission must find that no additional impact, nuisance (noise, smells, flies, pests) or hardship would occur to the adjacent property owners and no additional impact on the city’s transportation and infrastructure system. If an approved plan is violated or causes a situation that becomes a nuisance to adjacent property owners, the conditional use shall be subject to revocation.
