He has also contacted all <br />of his neighbors and they have agreed to his having the dog <br />facility. He has 3-3/4 acres of land on Sunfish Lake Boulevard. <br />He can have a 15' X 20' building moved in at a reasonable cost, <br />place it on a cement slab and partition it in accordance with <br />State requirements. <br /> <br />Councilwoman Oliphant asked if he worked during the day. <br /> <br />Mr. Carda replied that his company is presently on strike but <br />that he works on the second shift normally. He explained how <br />he would handle the calls. ~ <br /> <br />Mayor Cox asked if he was asking for a guaranteed job of $350.00 <br />per month. <br /> <br />Mr. Carda said he had to invest $1200 to $1700 for the building <br />and heating and cooling system and had to purchase materials for <br />the walls so he would like some assurance on getting back some <br />of his investment. <br /> <br />Councilwoman Oliphant asked what type of vehicle he would use. <br /> <br />Mr. Carda replied he plans to use his car for dogs and has a two <br />ton truck for larger animals. <br /> <br />Mayor Cox asked for questions from Councilmembers. <br /> <br />Councilman Gorham inquired about acceSs to his property~ <br /> <br />Mr. Carda replied that he would be using his own driveway and it <br />has a turnaround wide enough for two or three trucks. <br /> <br />Mayor Cox asked if he had close neighbors. <br /> <br />Mr. Carda replied to his left R. Ehalt and to his right Ives, Lion, <br />Scroggins and Wilson. <br /> <br />Mr. Ehalt stated he was concerned about the noise. He checked <br />with the neighbors of the preVious dog catcher. One said they <br />heard them occasionally and other said you get used to the noise. <br />But the building used for boarding the dogs was the basement of <br />a barn, all stone construction which would have muffled the noise. <br />And the closest neighbor was 450 feet away. <br /> <br />Mr. Ehalt said he spoke to his neighbors and they informed him <br />they had signed without thinking. He doesn't feel anyone would <br />like living next to the dog kennel. <br /> <br />Darla Walton said selling dogs for research is not human and <br />doesn't think this should be done. She would rather see them <br />put away. <br /> <br />Kathy Schneider said there are no dogs in the neighborhood that <br />are not penned up.- dog catcher would be located in an area where <br />there is no dog problem. But, we do have dog noise now. They all <br />bark. <br /> <br /> <br />
