letters of support have been provided from

DECLARATION
To: Maricopa County Board of Supervisors August 1, 2008
We, the neighbors of Deborah Mullen (3415 S. 157 th St, Gilbert), would hie to confirm that having her dog boarding •
facility in our residential neighborhood for the past several years is not now or ever has been an issue with us.
The kennel is run with a great deal of care and concern for the community in that the dogs are not noisy. In fact, most
of us were not even aware that a business was operating there.
No foul or unusual odors can be detected and the property is immaculately maintained. Again, all outward
appearances are that the property is just a home, nothing morel
And, any additional traffic along our roads is not noticeable and therefore not a problem even during holiday times.

Subject Please Consider
Dear Mr. Walker —
I am writing to you in regards to a vote regarding a Special Use Permit (license) case that you will be
hearing shortly regarding Holiday Hound House (CASE TRACKING NUMBER Z2008006, Owner,
Deborah Mullen). I'm not sure if you are aware of this or not, but finding a good dog boarding facility is
extremely hard to find in Maricopa County. My pets are VERY important to me, and I am extremely
particular about who looks after them. I personally have toured numerous facilities in the Valley — many
of which are already overbooked and over capacity.
I have beenwith Holiday Hound House for the last five years! The treatment and care that they provide
is priceless. My dog has a number of health issues which require her to be on a special diet and take
almost 4 separate medications a day. Many facilities will not take a dog that requires such specialized
care. At Holiday Hound House, they have been looking after my dogs for years and have been 100%
compliant with all medical requirements — and at no extra cost.
Their operation is well organized, structured and very efficient. There is no odor, traffic issues or
excessive barking. The facility should serve as a model for others. Please take special consideration
, to grant this Special Use Permit to Holiday Hound House. It would be extremely beneficial to all of us
who continue to utilize these services to take care of our loved ones. With the shortage already of dog
oarding facilities, to lose Holiday Hound House would be a big blow to the community. Thank you
Illir;gain for your consideration!
Best Regards

To: Jonce Walker and the Maricopa County board of supervisors
Special Use Permit Holiday Hound House, Case Tracking Number Z2008008, Owner Deborah Mullen At.
Mike and Deborah Mullen have been taking care of our dog Cira for the past three years while we go on various
vacations. Three years ago we began searching for a quality boarding facility for our loved pet. We were looking
for a place that was fairly small and the animals were given personal attention. We found that at the Holiday
Hound House. Mike and Deborah treat our Cira as if she were their own. Each dog is given personally supervised
morning and afternoon exercise sessions in their field. This Is where we believe the Holiday Hound House excels.
They take the time to get to know the temperament and personalities of each pet and form small supervised play
groups. This prevents any annoying behaviors in the dogs such as excessive barking or aggressive play. Other
facilities we interviewed did not treat each animal with such personal care and attention.
Mike and Deborah on multiple occasions have gone beyond just a standard kennel. We were on vacation when
Cira was diagnosed with Valley Fever, it was imperative that she start medication immediately. Deborah worked
with me, my vet and the pharmacy to get Cira on her medication within 24 hours. It is this type of service that
allows us to take our vacations with out worrying about Cira's conditions. Cira absolutely loves going to visit Mike
and Deborah. We can hardly contain her in the car when we arrive!
We have recently added another dog to our family and I just hope he has the opportunity to visit Deborah and .
Mike while we are on vacations. We do not believe there is another kennel in the area that gives the same quality
and care to their guest as Holiday Hound House. I fear if the Holiday Hound House is not given the Special Use
Permit for their facility, they will be forced to close and the community would be losing a wonder business.
They are simply not another kennel. They are a small responsible business that ensures the safety of the animals
they take care of as well as being excellent neighbors. We have driven up to Holiday Hound House countless
times and we have never heard any annoying barking. The kennels are kept extremely dean and there is never
any odor associated with the kennel. Their property appears to be a home with a couple of dogs playing in the
field. Any city should be proud to have business owners Ince Deb and Mike providing this service to their
residences'.
Please feel free to contact us if you any questions, we can be reach at 480-897-6170.
Sincerely,
IQrn and Ken Rudy

Mr. Jonce Walker
Regarding Case Number Z2008006 Holiday Hound House
Dear Mr. Walker,
I am writing in support of Ms. Deborah Mullen, Holiday Hound House, locating her pet
boarding facility at 18129 E. Stacey Rd. ..,.. Queen Creek, AZ.
My husband and I live at 17730 E. Stacey Rd, Queen Creek, approximately two blocks from
the proposed location, also a part of the Chandler Heights Citrus Irrigation District. We
have been clients of Ms. Mullen for more than five years, with her caring for our Akita
dogs when we travel, four to six times per year. I welcome the concept of her locating
the business within walking distance of our home.
Ms. Mullen's existing business delivers high quality, personalized pet care to a clientele
that has a high rate of return customers. This type of quality care is difficult to find
and is in high demand; Ms. Mullen has a track record of providing clean facilities, well
trained and caring staff, and a long standing, well-run business. There are fewli
Comparable businesses like Ms. Mullen's in-this area, and her business plan fulfills a
growing need:in the community,. :-'" - l I i
AS to the impactof her business in the location proposed, I am certain that it rwill have 1 I;.
ositive'dmpact in the area. The neighborhood is 'culturally diverse, with max* area
idents owning a multitude of animals .including dogs, cats, chickens, roosters--goat,,
4111F eep, cows, horses, peacocks and bulls. We also have a variety of wildlife: coyotes, road- - J,
runners, snakes, toads, mountain lion. The existing "pet" ,
population makes considerable noise at times (cows, roosters and peacocks in particular),
much more disruptive' than several dogs at play in Ms. Mullen's yard might be, Ovarall,
the neighborhood is very animal friendly. Ms. Mullen's business operations will be( h,
unobtrusive, fit seamlessly into the area, pill be well kept and clean. ,
I view Ms. Mullen's plan for the property with enthusiasm; we need properties in the area
well cared for, and under Ms. Mullen's care the existing property will be improved. Please
provide your support to her application.
Thank you for your consideration.. You may contact me if I can answer any questions.

Dear Board of Supervisors,
I am writing you today because it was recently brought to my attention that the Holiday Hound House applied for a
Special Use Permit for the new location.
Living in South Chandler I have relied on Deborah and Holiday Hound House to take care of my dogs while I
*travel on business. It is very hard to find good boarding facilities and I know myself and others are going to be
hard pressed to find boarding services as good as hers if her permit is not approved.
In the interest of many homeowners within Maricopa County, Holiday Hound House should be granted a special
use permit. •

Dear Sir:
.....Amo,ngthe4teasona that Arizona is, a _great place to live is tha.sense of opportunity and
possibility that exiate here. In many parts of our nation, this sense of opportunity-Vat:1h—
lost long ago. We are blessed to have county supervisors who understand and nurture this
pioneer spirit.
It is with that spirit in mind that I am writing in support of a business that embodies
these values and the spirit of free enterprise that makes our county such a great place to
live and work.
Maricopa County and the community of Queen Creek have an extraordinary opportunity to
support an extraordinary small businesswoman who provides an outstanding service to
families like mine in the East Valley. Not only do I recommend that we do all we can to
accomodate the special use permit for this important Maricopa County business, I!cl suggest
- that this is exactly the kind of service business that our towns of the East Valley need
the most.

Mr. Brock,
This email is to inform you of my OPPOSITION to the dog boarding'facility proposed
for 18129 E. Stacey, at the corner of Valencia Ave.
and Stacey Rd. As you may know this is a quiet, rural, residential neighborhood.
The opening of a commercial business in this neighborhood would cause a influx of unwanted
traffic onto our single lane dirt road (Stacey Rd) not to mention the noise of up to 20
dogs barking at all hours. I live within the 300' radius of this property and let me say
again that I am OPPOSED to this venture. We are sending representatives to the meeting on
Wednesday August 20, 2008 with a petition we have signed. It is my understanding that the
planing and zoning commission did not receive all the emails in OPPOSITION that were sent
to them through Mr. Johnce Walker. I feel that if they had received these emails they
would not have voted in favor of this facility.

Subject Opposition to special use permit #z2008006
Dear Mr. Brock,
Our neighborhood is in desperate need of your help and support. We are a rural residential neighborhood where
neighbors enjoy the serenity and peace of living in this quiet area of Queen Creek. Currently, a woman by the
name of Deborah Mullens is trying to obtain a Special Use Permit for use at the residence located on 18129 E.
Stacy Rd. She intends to use this permit for her business, Holiday Hound House. This business is an animal
boarding and possibly grooming facility. We, as neighbors, need your help to STOP this from happening.
We have majority OPPOSMON to this venture when collecting petition signatures from residences within 300
feet of Ms. Mullens home.
We would greatly appreciate your support in this matter at the Board of Supervisors Meeting, this week on
Wednesday, August 20th.
As concerned homeowners, we are truly at a loss as to what to do. Our main road affected by this venture is
Valencia Ave. which is already a dirt road and which also has a huge amount of traffic due to the Chandler
Heights Irrigation District (CHCID). CHCID is used for our residential water and irrigation. CHCID services a
huge amount of customers that must use Valencia Ave. in order to sign up for irrigation twice a month. This
* does not even account for the traffic to pay water bills at aiCID or customers paying on their irrigation
accounts.
Besides our concern about Valencia Avenue, we have a variety of other concerns in regards to having an animal
boarding facility next door to our residential homes! I also have a handful of homeowner letters that I would be
more than willing to share with you to support our opposition to Ms. Mullens request for a special use permit. I
would also be willing to fax a copy of our neighborhood petition to your office as well.
Please contact me with any questions and I would truly value your input and insight regarding this issue.
Best Regards,
Kristin Anderson

Phoenix, AZ 85008
- RE: Case # Z200806, Special Use Permit for dog boarding/grooming facility
Dear Mr. Walker:
I am writing to you and to the Members of the Maricopa County Planning and Zoning Board to express
my ABSOLUTE OPPOSMON to the proposed Special Use Permit requested by Deborah Mullen for the
residence located at 18129 East Stacey Road in Queen Creek, Arizona (CASE # Z2008006).
We have chosen to live in this neighborhood for a variety of reasons, but most importantly because of
the peace and quiet. My wife and I spend all of our time at home when we aren't at work. I truly enjoy
working in and around the house, building and working on our vehicles and toys and just relaxing in our yard
with our neighbors. I enjoy doing these things and being at home because it's peaceful and we're surrounded by
people who enjoy many of the same things Summer or winter, our windows are open most of the time so we
can enjoy the fresh air and peace of our neighborhood. Right now, our neighborhood is being invaded by Ms.
Mullens and her plans to turn the residential home across the street from us and its additional building into a dog
boarding and grooming facility.
In April, my wife visited the open house at Ms. Mullens current dog boarding facility in Gilbert After
her reports I still continued to be against this business venture. In fact, I would be against any business hie this
that someone would want to bring into our neighborhood because this area should be for residential only.
Above all things, who would want a dog boarding and grooming facility across the street from their biggest
investment, their home. My reasons for continuing to be OPPOSED to Ms. Mullens request for a Special Use
Permit to board dogs are:
• Approval of a Special Use Permit leaves neighbors limited when problems occur
• Increased traffic on Valencia Avenue's dirt road
• Additional noise
• Decreased value of our home
• Decreased ability to sell home because this business will be right across the street from us -
• We live in a residential neighborhood, not an area for businesses
• We were fully aware of the Water Company before we purchased our house; we made the choice to live
with the Water Company.
• We want our peace and quiet
With my neighbors, I will continue to fight against having a dog boarding and grooming facility not
only in my neighborhood, but especially across the street from my house. Put yourself in my shoes when you
are making this decision. Would you want a dog boarding/grooming facilitywith barking dogs, extra traffic and
possibly spell next door to you? I highly doubt it. I am sure there are some neighbors that really don't care
about this issue, but why should people outside of the 300 foot parameter matter. These people shouldn't be.
asked to help make decisions about whether or not a business should be in their neighborhood when they aren't
immediately affected by Ms. Mullens proposal like my wife and I are. If you-should have any questions about
my opposition to this proposal, please contact me. Please keep our interests in mind when making your final
decision.
Sincerely,

Kristin K. Anderson

RE: Case # Z200806, Special Use Permit for dog boarding/grooming facility
Dear Mr. Walker:
I am writing to you and to the Members of the Maricopa County Planning and Zoning Board to
express my COMPLETE OPPOSITION to the proposed Special Use Permit requested by Deborah
Mullen for the residence located at 18129 East Stacey Road in Queen Creek, Arizona (CASE #
Z2008006).
Oily husband and I moved out of a congested area in Mesa into our home on Valencia Avenue in
July of 2005. After two years of living in our rural, secluded, quiet home we proceeded to purchase
it in 2007. We have chosen to live in this neighborhood for a variety of reasons, but most
importantly because it is what we view as relaxing and gives us the ability to rejuvenate in order to
return to the "hub-bub" of our society on Monday mornings. As a high school administrator in
Gilbert, I deal with a plethora of stresses throughout my day and work week. Many times they
creep into my weekend as well because of scheduled functions, but my relief at the end of the day
or week is being home, in the yard, at the neighbors, sitting inside with the windows open and
enjoying the peace. I am most frustrated to report that my peace and sense of relief is being
invaded by Ms. Muliens and her plans to turn a residential home and additional building into a dog
boarding and grooming facility.
In April, my neighbors and I were invited to an open house at Ms. Muliens current dog boarding
facility in Gilbert. There, we were informed of Ms. Muliens plans for the newest dog bording facility
on Stacey Road. While visiting Ms. Muliens, we were able to tour her facility, ask clarifying
questions and I was able to express my continued opposition for her plans within our
neighborhood. During this meeting, when asked about living arrangements at the Stacey home, Ms.
Muliens not realizing, gave several conflicting statements about who would be living in the home
and when they would actually be present. In fact, since that meeting I have been told of more
plans via neighbor conversations with Ms. Muliens step-daughter who is currently living in the
home. There is no straight and narrow explanation for how this facility will be monitored, which
essentially leaves us "up a creek" when there are problems. If Ms. Muliens wants a business that
she can come and go from then why not set that business up within a strip mall or in a shopping
center? The easy explanation of why Ms. Muliens does not want that is she will no longer be able to
advertise that she is boarding these animals in her home.
My reasoning for being ADAMANTLY OPPOSED to Ms. Muliens request of a Special Use Permit for
oa dog boarding can be explained directly as follows.
• Approval of a Special Use Permit leaves neighbors limited when problems occur
• Increased traffic on Valencia Avenue's dirt road
• Noise, noise, noise

ll
• Decreased value of home due to business
• Decreased ability to sell home, if need be, due to business
• Residential neighborhood
• Neighbors were fully aware of the Water Company prior to the purchase/building of their
homes.
• The smell within Ms. Muliens Gilbert facility was undesirable, would/could the smell of the
new location wander into our backyard?
• Peace and quiet wanted and needed
• Why shoud Ms. Muliens problems become ours? (ie. the affect this will have on her
"livelihood," husband's illness, decreased business because of all the tie-ups)
I find as I write this letter and fight for my home, peace and investments that I truly am a prisoner.
to one woman who has decided to invade our neighborhood with a business that immediately'
surrounding neighbors do not agree with or want. Trying to put ourselves in each other's shoes is
necessary when considering Ms. Mullens request. Granted there are neighbors among us that really
don't care about this issue. But ask yourself, do they directly surround her home and are they the
immediate homes in all directions to her? Probably not. So if they aren't within 300 feet of Ms.
Mullens' residential home then why do they get to make a decision that affects those of us who
are? Take a look at the water company for example. Why would they care if Ms. Mullens is awarded
a Special Use Permit, they don't live, sleep or rest in their offices because their operating hours are
minimal at best. There are though, two homes, one especially, who's bedrooms are within
extremely close range to Ms. Mullens. We as neighbors have valuable reasons why this Special Use
Permit should not be approved. If you should have any continued questions, please contact me.
Please keep our majority opposition in mind when making your final decision.
Sincerely,
...
Kristin K. Anderson

RE: Case #: Z2008006 Holiday Hound House
To Whom It May Concern:
I am writing this letter in regards to a notice I received from your office on or
around July 8, 2008. Apparently a request has been made for a Special Use Permit for an
animal boarding/ grooming facility in the Rural-43 RUPD zoning district by our
neighbor.
I do not want this boarding/ grooming facility to be granted a Special Use Permit.
The Chandler Heights Citrus Community is a quiet and calm neighborhood. We live on a
dirt road next to the water company. This does create extra traffic, dust, and noise along
Valencia mad. However, *1 water company was established long before we moved into
the area, so we were aware of the situation. Unfortunately, if a dog boarding facility is
allowed to move in, even more traffic will arrive creating more dust and noise. The other
factor is the possibility of barking, annoying dogs. I know that the owner may "promise"
that we will not hear a peep, but how can we be certain? How can one be expected to
keep 10, 20, or more dogs quiet at ail times? The main concern is that once a Special Use
Permit is granted, there will be little hope for the surrounding property owners to ensure
that the promises made, are actually enforced.
I believe in the rights of all to pursue an income as they choose. However, I do
not deem it fair that surrounding property owners be subjected to a nuisance that will be
almost impossible to control.

Mr. Jonce Walker, Planner

501 N. 44th Street, Ste. 100
Phoenix, Arizona 85008
Dear Mr. Walker:
I want to let you and the other members of the Maricopa County Planning and
Zoning that we are vehemently opposed to the proposed "Holiday Hound
House" dog kennel commercial facility venture (special use permit) for the property
located at 18129 E. Stacey Road in Chandler Heights, Arizona. (CASE # Z2008006
— Deborah and Mike Mullen, owners/operators)
We have lived in the home just south (yes, we share a block fence with the Stacey
Road property in question) for 13 years and have invested our lives and incomes
into this acreage. We purposefully moved to this area because we had horses,
dogs, cats, and chickens and have been thankful for the quietness of this
residential property we those. It is with great concern and disdain that I'm sending
this email to you regarding the commercial proposition that the Mullens are having •
you consider. Here are my concerns:
1, We are public school counselors/teachers who are home most of the time,
especially in the summer. We DO NOT want dogs barking both day and
night in our very own back yard as the facility BACKS RIGHT UP to our
backyard and bedrooms.
2. We have four (4) dogs that are very well-mannered and we do not let them
indiscriminately bark, but if you're a pet owner at all, you know that when
dogs bark, it starts a chain reaction. WE DO NOT want dogs out in the yard
(or in the facility) barking when we're trying to sleep or when we're home.
Since this is to be a commercial venture, it's NOT LIKE normal pet
ownership whereby dogs get used to neighbor dogs. The "Holiday Hound
House" dogs will change and barks WILL BE constant.
3. This is a cozy, quiet neighborhood: not a commercial neighborhood. We
are NOT HAPPY at all with a coming in. When we purchased our home 13
years ago, we knew CHCID (the water company) was across the street, but
it's just that: a water facility. It's not an animal business (with barks,
smells, noises, various and different customers and traffic, etc.)
4. If we need to sell our home, WHO wants to Purchase a property NEXT to a
DOG BOARDING FACILITY?? Not me! It will automatically lower our

• property values and that's NOT what we or any of our neighbors want. We
are particularly concerned since the property is directly behind us.
5. My husband and I have a flock of chickens that is directly behind the block
wall that we share with the 18129 E. Stacey Road facility. Currently, it is
quiet, cozy, and they are settled. We, as residential pet owners are appalled
at the prospect of clients, dogs and cats, and traffic coming in directly on
the other side of our block wall.
6. The Muliens are wonderful people, but they DO NOT plan to live in the
facility and to have this kind of venture in our neighborhood just isn't fair.
We've invested our time, energies, and money into this home and frankly
find it disturbing that they are pursuing this matter even after we told their
realtor and Ms. Mullen in January (when she began looking at the property)
. that we'd fight to keep her commercial venture out of our neighborhood:
our home, our investment, and our dream.
Due to the scheduling of this meeting (9:00 on July 24th), neither my husband,
Chuck, nor I can come to the hearing. I am requesting that you read my letter,
NOTE my disapproval and concerns, and I beg of you to DENY the Muliens the
Special Use Permit to try to destroy our neighborhood with this "Holiday Hound
House" venture.
Thank you for noting mrConcems. Please dOcument my complete opposition to
the case.

Re: CASE #Z200806 — "Holiday Hound House"
Dear Mr. Walker:
I am writing to you and the other members of the Maricopa County Planning and Zoning in
order to express my opposition to the proposed "Holiday Hound House" dog kennel
commercial facility venture (special use permit) for the property located at 18129 E. Stacey
Road in Chandler Heights, Arizona. (CASE # Z2008006 — Deborah and Mike Mullen,
owners/operators) .
I cannot express my resistance to this proposal in strong enough terms. I am extremely upset
about the possibility of the property next to ours becoming a commercial business. Our
home since 1995 (13 years) is on the property adjoining the proposed dog kennel
immediately to the south only feet from the building that is supposed to house the kennel
and right across the fence from what appears to be the proposed exercise yard. I do not want
to live next to a commercial dog kennel with all the noise, odor, and traffic that will
certainly result. •
I am generally not in favor of extreme restrictions on what a person can do on or with their
own property as long as the activity does not adversely effect their surrounding
neighborhood. The Mullens, however, are not even planning to live here and they will be
able to sell their business to someone else in the future, so even if the Mullens were the
perfect neighbors, there is no assurance that whomever would take it over would have any
concern. for the neighborhood and we would be stuck.
I feel for the Mullens in that they were led to believe that their would be little or no
resistance to their venture in our neighborhood (probably the fault of their real estate agent),
but we expressed our opposition from the very outset It's my understanding that Mrs.
Mullen spent some time canvassing the neighborhood last weekend trying to drum up
support for her kennel and part of her appeal was that her husband was in ill health and they
needed this business to provide for his care since they were no longer able to keep the
business in its current location (in another residential neighborhood— any surprise?).

My wife, Yvonne, and I are both high-school counselors and cannot, because of our job
commitments with back-to-school days, attend the hearing on the date you have set
(Thursday, July 24, 2008). I am requesting that you read my letter, RECORD my
disapproval, and DENY the Mullens the Special Use Permit for their "Holiday Hound
House" venture.
Thank y for noting my concerns. Please document my absolute opposition to the case.

Description of Proposal:
1. This request is for a Special Use Permit (SUP) for an animal boarding and
grooming facility on a site approx. 1.2 gross acres in size. The site is zoned
Rural-43 RUPD and is located north of Hunt Hwy. and west of Valencia Ave. in
the Chandler Heights area.
2. There are currently two (2) structures on the site. One of the structures is a 1,952
sq. ft. home with a 714 sq. ft. covered patio on the northern end of the property
that will be occupied by the applicant and not used in the animal boarding
operation. The second structure is a 1,800 sq. ft. single room, 30' (w) x 60' (1) x
15' (h) metal shelled building that the applicant will modify internally to house
twenty (20) runs for boarding dogs and six (6) enclosures for cats. Internal
modifications to the boarding facility includes a laundry area, an ADA bathroom, an
animal food preparation area, and a reception center. Total lot coverage for the
home and the animal housing structure approx. 10.06%. The perimeter of the
backyard grass area south of the house will be fenced in via a 6' (h) block walk
This area will be used as a potty and exercise space for the dogs. A series of•
fences and access gates will be used inside the backyard grass areas to control the
amount of dogs in various sections.
3. In addition to boarding the animals, the applicant is proposing a grooming •
operation but has detailed that most of the grooming will consist of exit baths for
animals that are leaving the facility after their stay. The applicant has stated that
any grooming will be done on a request basis thereby only employing a groomer
when needed.
4. The site will be maintained and cleaned daily with solid wastes bagged for pick-up
at by the refuse company, The applicant is proposing debris traps inside the drains
to prevent hair, fur, and food from entering the septic system. The applicant is
also proposing that a pest control company be' employed to spray on a monthly
basis to eliminate any insect infestations. An HVAC unit and new duct-work will be
installed inside the facility for heating . and cooling. The applicant is also providing
a generator and portable heating and cooling units on site in the event of a power
outage so that the facility can maintain a safe temperature for the animals.
Internal emergency lights will be affixed to the walls as well. Internal fit out of the
facility includes blown insulation and sheet rock to mitigate noise, metal framing,
and sheet rock.
5. Primary access to the site will be from a 25' (w) paved circular driveway off of
65' (w) dirt surfaced Valencia Rd. Stacey Rd.-is a dirt surface easement on the
northern property line, and could be used to access Valencia Rd. and then the
facility. However, because Stacy Rd. is a smaller easement that mainly serves as
Agenda Item: 14- Z2008006
Page 2 of 18

access to homes and the Chandler Height Irrigation District and not the general
public, it is unlikely that customers will use Stacy Rd. to access the facility.
Therefore, the applicant has expressed confidence that all clients will enter and
exit from Valencia Rd. using the internal circular drive pattern. The applicant has
proposed to put up a barrier chain so that customers will not be able to access
the facility from Stacey Rd. The circular drive is gated to provide security and
screening. For dust abatement, the circular drive and track out is paved. The
applicant has stated that the traffic generated should only be about two (2) to
three (3) vehicles per day. The cirde driveway leads to a four (4) space parking
area which is adjacent to the boarding facility. Three (3) of the spaces are
standard with one (1) space handicap-accessible. All and parking spaces will be
paved. There is one (1) flood light affixed to the boarding facility at 14' (h) to
illuminate the parking area..
6. The applicant has slated that the facility will operate seven (7) days a week from
8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. with drop off and pick up hours limited to 8:00 a.m. to
10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. The facility will be closed on major
holidays. There will be two (2) full-time employees and four (4) part-time
employees at staggered hours of the day. However, details of how they will be

Analysis of Conformance with Adopted Plans:
10. Maricopa County 'Tye to the Future 2020" Comprehensive Plan: The
Comprehensive Plan designates this site within the General Plan Development Area.
(GPDA) of the Town of Queen Creek. Under this designation, the Comprehensive
Plan indicates that staff will take into account the Town of Queen Creek General
- Plan as long as it ha been updated in the last five (5) years with input of County
residents. The Town's plan does not meet these requirements having been last
updated and adopted May 15, 2002. Although the Queen Creek General Plan was
approved more than 5 years ago, staff still donsiders the land use designation as
valid.
11. Queen Creek Area Plan (County Area Plan): The land use plan of the Queen
• Creek Area Plan, was adopted April 6, 1992. The last revision was on June 1,
1996. The plan identifies Suburban Residential (0-2 d.u./ac.) as the designation
Agenda Item: 14- Z2008006
2 Page 3 of 18

for the site. The current zoning on the property is Rural-43 RUPD. As a
commercial type of land use, the proposal is not in conformance with the plan.
However, this type of use does not require that a Comprehensive Plan Amendment
(CPA) be processed due to the similar density designation as a Rural Development
Area (0-1 d.u./ac.) as confirmed by the Comprehensive Planning Division.
12. Town of Queen Creek General Plan: The General Plan designates the subject
site for 'Very Low Density Residential" uses of 0-1 d.u./ac. Uses found within this
category indude vacant land, single-family detached residential and certain
agricultural uses. The proposed use does not appear to be consistent with the
Town's plan.

concerns that were expressed included: project does not belong in a residential
area, diminishing property values, added dust, noise, etc. Of those property
owners opposing the proposal, one (1) of them lives outside of the 300' buffer.'

36. The Holiday Hound House will operate the boarding seven (7)-days a week from
8:00 am to 6:00 pm with pick up and drop off hours limited to 8:00 a.m. to 10:00
a.m. and 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. The facility will be dosed on all major holidays.
There will be two (2) full-time'employees- and four (4) part-time employees. The
applicant has stated verbally that the two (2) full-time employees will be herself
and her husband who will reside at the site. Unfortunately, there has not been any
information formally submitted to confirm this. Additionally, there is missing
Agenda Item: 14 - Z2008006
Page 13 of 18

information about how frequently the applicant will employ an off-site mobile
grooming service. •
37. All of the customers will access the site from Valencia Ave. in order to miniMte
traffic on Stacy Rd. which is the dirt northern access easement There are two
gates located on the entrance and exit off of Valencia Rd. There has not been any
further information submitted by the applicant detailing if these gates will remain
open during all business hours or how these will function.
38. The applicant has not requested an SUP time frame. Therefore staff has
determined that a time frame of ten (10) years is applicable for a project of this
nature. This timeframe is also consistent with the Town of Gilbert
recommendation. Staff will stipulate to a status report at one (1) year to ensure •
that stipulations are' being complied with and at eight (8) years to provide
adequate time for renewal discussion applications.
39. Although commercial in nature, an animal boarding / grooming facility can locate in
rural and residential zoning districts as well as non-residential zoning district with
an SUP. Staff feels that even though the applicant has demonstrated a willingness
to lessen any impacts to the neighborhood through some lot and building design,
the applicant is proposing an intensity that is too great for a residential setting.
Namely, the intensity of use (20 dogs / 6 cats/ undefined grooming operation on a
one acre site) combined with an essentially stand alone commercial fadlity •
potentially impacting adjacent properties more significantly then the subject
property is a concern. Some of the items the applicant is proposing to mitigate
neighborhood impacts include sound attenuated walls of the boarding facility and
screening the site with a CMU perimeter wall. Staff also feels that the applicant has
made an effort to educate the neighborhood about this project throughout the
entitlement process. However, there remains adjacent and nearby resident
opposition as well as unknown parameters of the requests which both would be
best addressed now via a continuance.
Recommendation:
40. Staff recommends the Commission inotiOn to continue of 22008006 subject to a
date certain of September 18, 2008 for the following reasons:
• - Adjacent and nearby residents continue to expreSS opposition of the
proposal.
• Allow the applicant time to stbrnit a revised site plan and narrative report
to -darify some unclear parameters of the request

Pet Industry Trends for 2008 • •
2008 Trggii December 10, 2007 By Lama Bennett
Eames Notc Last year ow single most popular trends article was about the
pet industry. Sow e invited the author. Laura Bennet4 CEO °fro:brace Pet
heurancedriduredleji). backfor this guest post to update w on pet industry
trends for 2008. Perhaps lids article will trigger ideas firr businesses you can
start or larger companies you can partner qv with.
By Lams Bennett
The 2008 economics for pekelated small businesses will be affected by a continuing
increase in pet-related spending, higher awareness of pet health, greater uptake of pet
insurance, and continued humanization of pets, integrating them into all aspects of our
lives. Trends includc
.L Pet parents continue to upgrade their purchases
Spending on pet supplies and over-the-counter medicines crmtimus to increase with $9.9
billion prcdected to be spent in 2007, an increase o16.5% over 2006, according to the
AMakill Pet Products Manufacturers' Association (APPMA). Spending in 2000 will
likely exceed $103 billion. People will continue to spend above and beyond on their pets
as the population ages and pets take the place of children at home. Pet parents are
upgrading necessities, such as rood, leashes, and bedding, and some lincuries are not so
umuual any more — how often do you see a dog dressed up to go out these days? Irish-
end specialty pet stores continue to thrive despite competition from the big box stores as
passionate pet ownem look for selection, stYll, and a unique shopping expaienae.
2. Pet services for your pets grow in abundance
More than $2.9 'Afton dollars will be spent on pet services in 2007 according to the
APPMA, which will Maly cantle' ne to grow at around 7% for 2008. Again, pet parents
are including their pets in their own lifestyles so visits to the spa, exercise regimes, and
hotel-quality accommodations for day care are becoming more common place in urban
areas. As we expected, we are seeing more services partnering together centered around
pots, such as the Ritz-Canton and the Baddev Pet pot& and Day Spa providing
pampering for your pet while you kick back in hurray. We also expect to see groomers,
doggie daycares, pet hotels, pet insurance companies, lawyers providing pet trusts, and
funeral homes providing services for pets also joining forces more and more in 2008.

Circulation System
Because the site sits between two nomajor streets (Stacey Road and Valencia Ave) and within a
residential sub-division no improvements or dedications are required.
The property has a circular driveway with two access gates. The gates provide privacy and security
when the facgity is dosed. The driveway is already paved with asphalt inside the property and also
beyond to the street perimeter.
An 'ENTRANCE' sign will be affixed in the outside wall (see sign description) near the gate and an
'EXIT' sign will be affixed to the inside wall showing the exit gate. This will control the flow of traffic
• to eliminate any confusion or accidents.
Traffic flow will be limited to about two to three vehicles on a day to day basia. SIGHT VISIBILITY
TRIANGLES will not be necessary because of the low amount of traffi6 that will be generated from
the site.

There is adequate area on the drive for 4 parking spaces including one ADA designated spot. •
Since the kennel capacity is limited to a small nmnber of boarding animals the drop-off and
pick-up hours are scheduled thereby !moping the traffic flow to a minimmni Three regular
parking spaces will be more than adequate. !tack client dropping oft or picking up imirnalo
spends no more than ten minutes at the facility. Parking is available for employee vehicles at the
front of the residence building accessed directly offValencia' Avenue or behind the 12' gate on
the noith side of kennel Waring.

Subject: , CASE #Z2008006 - Dog Boarding Facility- 18129 E. Stacey Road, Chandler Heights, AZ
To Jonce Walker,
Re: 18129 E. Stacey Road, Chandler Heights, AZ CASE # Z2008006
Hello,
My name is Yvonne Warner and I've lived in the property just south of 18129-g.'StaCey Road--
for at least 13 years. We have lived here before the home/shop property was even built.
It is with great concern that I am emailing you regarding the wishes of Deborah Mullen to
turn that home/grounds into a dog boarding facility. There are several reasons for our
concerns:
1. We are teachers and are home much of the time. We DO NOT want dogs barking both day
and night in our very own back yard as the facility BACKS RIGHT UP TO OUR backyard and
bedrooms.
2. We have 4 dogs who are very well-mannered and we do not let them indiscriminately
ADark, but if you're a pet owner at all, you know that when dogs bark, it starts a chain
- .reaction. WE DO NOT want dogs out in the yard barking when we're trying to sleep or when
we're home..
3. This is a cozy, quiet NEIGHBORHOOD: not a commercial facility. L We are NOT HAPPY at
all with a commercial venture being allowed into out neighborhood. We moved in with the
• full knowledge of CHCID, the water facility, but it's just THAI'. A water facility... .NOT
•an animal (noisy, smelly) facility.
4. If we should have to sell, WHO wants to purchase a home NEXT to:A DOG BOARDING
Facility?? Not ME! It will automatically lower our property values. That's NOT what I, -
or any of my neighbors want.
In January, when Ms. Mullen and her realtor came by telling) us of their intent to purchase
and turn the home @ 18129 E. Stacey into a dog facility, we were alarmed to'say the least.
We reacted very negatively to both of them. The reason is: it is just not fair for us to
have invested our monies, time, and energy into making this neighborhood a wonderful place
to be.
We've invested into this place, NOT TO HAVE SOMEONE COMEAND turn the very property next
door into a commercial venture. There are other places for that, but not here in this
quiet area of Chandler Heights/Queen Creek.
When are the meetings at which we may plead °Ur case?
The signs posted at the property are vague (at best) and the meetings are announced as TED
(which I interpret to mean: To Be Determined). This is very concerning because I'm
fearful that you're going to have the meetings and NOT allow US to take part and you'll
ACCEPT' OR PASS this commercial venture without our knowledge. AND WE CARE... .WE WANT TO
KNOW!
Please get back to me because I'll do whatever it takes to keep a commercial, especially a
barking dog, venture OUT OF OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.
Sincerely,
Yvonne G. Warner

Concerning property located at:

'Chandler Heights Az. 85227
I live two houses west of the location requesting the zoning/special use permit. I spoke
y with Ms. Mullen several weeks ago when she was looking to buy the house directly next door
-to us. As I stated to her then, I am strongly opposed to a commercial dog boarding
facility located next door to me. The property she wishes to use is located on a.one lane,
undeveloped, irrigation easement road, in a quiet rural residential area. The added
traffic and dust, not to mention the larking dogs, this would bring to our quiet
neighborhood would be unacceptable to the residents on Stacey rd. that I have spoken with.
I would greatly appreciate being kept fully informed of any and all hearings, 'meetings and
findings associated with this case so that I may attend and voice my opposition to this
change in zoning. Below, please find my contact information. Thank you for your attention
to this matter.

Subject re-zoning Case # Z2008008
Dear Jonce walker,
This email is in response to the proposed re-zoning of the property which address is 18129 E. Stacey
Rd., Queen Creek, AZ. 85242.1 am not in favor of rezoning to allow this boarding facility here in our
quiet residential neighborhood. There are other locations in the area that are already zoned for
commercial/residential purposes such as locations on San Tan Blvd that runs parallel 1/2 mile north of
Stacy Rd. All of us neighbors are in agreement and do not favor this action for primary concerns of
noise control and the resulting property value. It is also already difficult enough for us residents to take
our young children for walks w/out dogs barking through gates and fences and scaring the children. We
don't need mother stretch of road where the kids are afraid to go bye. Even though there is a brick wall
surrounding the property, just the sound of the dogs would be too much for them. Again, I am all in
favor of small businesses but this is the wrong place. If! can be of help to answer any questions or
concerns, I can be reached best by phone (480)294-9296 Thank you for your time on our unified
neighborhood rejection of this plan.
