Code Section: 224 (c)

Subject: Cat boarding, where permitted

Effective Date: 10/91

Interpretation:

   This Section states that a commercial kennel, "dogs are boarded for compensationis first permitted in the C-M District. The question arose as to whether an establishment for boarding cats would fall within the commercial kennel category. It was noted that the description specifically mentioned dogs and only dogs. It was assumed that a commercial kennel was listed as a separate use rather than under general service category because they are sometimes outdoor uses and because of the more apparent smells and noise of dogs. Therefore a retail use which is primarily boarding of cats indoors is a general retail service.
