Veterinary Out-Patient Clinic
Shannon began the discussion by stating that to grant the veterinary
clinic a special use permit would dilute the B-2 ordinance. Hauser noted
that there was no proof that the veterinary service was really needed.
Cummins continued this thought by stating that she was worried about
what would happen to the property if the operation failed.
A disagreement developed concerning the definition of a consumer
service use under the B-2 ordinance. Hauser said that personal services
do not include caring for animals . Wesley disagreed with this, and he
suggested that there was no conflict. He felt that the veterinary
clinic was within the legal requirements of the B-2 ordinance.
Shannon referred to an October, 1973 memo dealing with a veterinary
clinic located in the 1-1 District. According to the report, the
Village Manager suggested that a special use permit with controls be
issued. (See the October 1973 report for full details.)
Hamilton expressed that the proposed veterinary clinic be allowed
in the B-2 section with the conditions of the 1 -1 veterinary clinic
and an added condition that the clinic be a self-supported building
with no connecting buildings .
Shannon further noted that an additional condition would be
necessary because in a B-2 District, the owner could build to the lot
line. Wesley stated that these changes would require a text amendment.
He also suggested that the B-2 change should be made specifically for
veterinary clinics.
Hauser made the motion to change Article 5.5 for zoning the B-2
District as follows :
Amend Section C (p. 35) to be relettered to Section E. Insert
after Section B (p. 34) , the following:
Section C. Conditional Uses : The following conditional uses are
permitted:
(add) Veterinary Out-Patient Clinics .
Plan Commission Minutes - 2 - December 27, 1976
Section D. Prerequisites for Conditional Use:
(add) Veterinary Out-Patient Clinics, subject to following condition:
(a) There shall be no boarding of animals of any kind
except for those animals so ill that the personal
attention of a doctor of veterinary medicine is
required, or those animals recovering from surgery,
providing that any such boarding facility permitted

(b) All business must be conducted within a completely

(d) Parking requirements shall be in accordance with
Section 3.96 (c) (2) , Medical or Dental Clinics .
Klyber seconded the motion. All present voted 'AYE' .
Wheel Stops
Shannon began the discussion by stating that the purpose of the
text amendment is to remove the excessive burden which was placed on
developers .
Wesley suggested that they were mainly interested in preventing
the protrusion of vehicles beyond the lot line. Hamilton argued that
the protrusion was not the problem, rather the damage caused by cars
rolling off the lots onto people's property was the major concern.
Cummins made a motion that they approve the text amendment per-
taining to the wheel stops . Hamilton seconded the motion. All present
voted 'AYE' .
Centex Industrial Park Unit No. 211
Cummins moved to approve the subdivision. Hamilton seconded the
motion. All present voted 'AYE' .

Commission will conduct a Public Hearing concerning a special use
