Council: We moved several important projects along that will help the city, both socially and economically.

Council: Now we're going to do the rotation. I'd like a nomine… I'd like someone to nominate, our vice chairman as chairman for this year. Council: Vice Chair Eric Johnson to the Chairmanship of the Planning Commission for the year beginning January 2026 through December 2026. Thank you. Do I have a second? I'll second that.

Council: Who would like to be? Council: you know. Council: We have a recent former chair and a recent former chair, and, you know, one of us would do it again, but I think it would be nice if we could have someone else that would step forward and Council: probably obligate to be the vice chair and chairman Chairperson next year.

There will be no separate discussion of these items unless a request to remove a specific item for… Council: Separate action is received.

Council: Alright, so with a motion and second, all those in favor say aye. Aye. Any opposed? Council: No? Abstentions? Perfect. Council: Alright, moving on from, the consent, we'll move to public hearings. Council: So we'll move to Item 10A, Canine and Feline Kennel Uses Ordinance Amendments. And, this will be a staff report tonight, given by our city attorney, Christine Malenchoff. Council: So I'll turn the time over to… Thank you, Chair, and Happy New Year to all of you, if I hadn't had a chance to see you before tonight. So, this ordinance change is coming to you because it does affect our zoning ordinances. Council: We, by way of background. Council: I think most of you are probably aware, if you have dogs, love dogs, or have dog lovers in your family, that there is a growing demand in communities for a place where, now when you've been called back to work in the post-COVID world, somebody… you need a place to take your dog. Council: For doggy daycare, for dog training, socialization, all of those things that make our communities and canine communities happier and healthier. Council: And so, what is before you is an ordinance to allow for that type of use in our commercial and light industrial zones. We had a proposed business owner come forward to the city asking about what he would need to do in order to take out, Council: a business license to use… to permit this type of use in one of our commercial zones downtown, and we said, well, it's actually prohibited at this point in time. Council: Our ordinance, as it's currently written, requires any kenneling services to be provided by a licensed veterinarian. Now, most licensed veterinarians that provide kenneling services, it's largely because they're providing medical care for a dog or cat that needs to be Council: Kept overnight because of the treatment that they're receiving, not necessarily because they're receiving social interaction in a play area or training, that type of thing. Council: And so, staff took a look at it, we took a look at demand in the community, we took a look at other Council: Communities that have this type of use that's allowable, and made the determination that in a commercial or light industrial zone, this would be an appropriate use. Council: The proposed ordinance before you tonight, if you recommend it to Council, would change our zoning so that in a commercial zone, if the use was exclusively indoor, then it would be a by-right Council: No conditional use permit needed. Council: And it would allow for the… Council: Sporting training of 20 either cats or dogs. Council: If they wish to utilize outdoor facilities, so they wanted to have an outdoor play area for the canines, maybe, you know, an obstacle course kind of thing set up for them, they would be allowed 30 canines and felines in total, but it would require a conditional use permit, because we felt that if they were going to be… Council: Providing these services out of doors, we would want to make sure that it would have the least impact, perhaps, on Council: Residential neighbors that were abutted up to a commercial zone. Council: And so, the ordinance is similar for light industrial. Council: pretty much the same restrictions. If you want to be completely interior, 20, dogs or cats, and if you want to go exterior, 30 would require a conditional use permit. Council: And so, we felt like that provided enough… Council: guardrails, for our community, using those two industrial… light industrial, which the uses are a little further apart from each other than necessarily commercial, and it segregates itself from residential, and just as a side note, this use is, by right in certain circumstances, an agrarian, Council: zoned properties. So, with that, if there's any questions, we would be happy to answer them. We're… as staff, I think, we're very excited. I personally am kind of excited. I have a one-year puppy that I rescued about a year ago, who was severely abused and is missing an eye because of it. Council: And he needs some activity, so I think everyone in our community is kind of excited about this, and I think we've done a good job of providing enough guardrails. As an aside, we've also reached out to communities that have these types of uses and have sort of a Council: set of forms that we can look at when we do get an application for perhaps a conditional use permit that we can use to kind of Council: Mold our conditional use permit after from communities that have this use and have learned some lessons, and make sure that when that permit is issued, that it's in a good space to protect our community's health, safety, and welfare. Council: I'm open to any questions. Council: Excellent. Thank you for that presentation, that report, and for all the efforts looking into that. Do any of my colleagues have any questions or comments at this time before the public hearing? Council: Mr. Johnson. Council: So, if an applicant wants To have, outside, pins for storage. Council: It has to… Council: has to have a CUP, even though it's less than 30, and even though it's in an industrial zone. Council: Correct. The number that they can board or train at any one time is a max. Council: So, it wouldn't matter if they said, we only want to have 10 dogs. Council: If they were going to use outdoor space, they would still require a conditional use permit. Both in, commercial and industrial and light industrial? Correct. Council: Commissioner Manning? Yeah, I have a question. Council: Just wondering, Council: where we got the number 20 and 30 dogs from, was it a best practice from other communities? And the reason I ask that, not because I'm… Council: Pushing back on it in any way, but… Council: I would think that the size… the number of dogs might be more correlated with the size of the property, rather than just a number, right? And if somebody had a great business plan, and thought that they could run a very profitable business with 40 dogs, and they had a huge… a big building, Council: Why wouldn't we allow… why wouldn't we allow that? Council: The numbers, came from calling around. I made a lot of phone calls to a lot of facilities. There's one in Rockland. I made some down to Central, the Central Coast, down to Southern California, and that seems to be kind of the sweet spot. Council: So, the calls you made, were those to the actual businesses? So, I mean, 20's a good, profitable number, where some… because we'd be wasting our time if they look at it and the numbers don't match with 20, right? And I wouldn't know that, because I don't run a dog. Council: It is a good number. And that's per day? So, the thing about these types of businesses is that it's not typically the same 20 dogs every day. Owners will say, I want to do 1 day, 2 days, 3 days, and they'll have package programs. Council: But most of the businesses I talked to said 20 dogs is the most that they can handle with the staffing that they're able to obtain that is trained Council: And to give the animals the appropriate care and tending that they need to accomplish the owner's goals. Okay, so we feel confident that those numbers would allow a business to be… to thrive Council: under 20, right? It's the best that we could come up with, given our research. My other question, and… Council: We love… my household, we love our dog to the point where it's… I mean, we love our dog, right? And we use these type of services. Council: Yeah, please, yeah. We really love our dog, and I think this is awesome for our community. I didn't know that it wasn't allowed here. Now I know why we go so far, because there's nothing close by, so this is great. Council: The other question I have is, one of the things we really… we require when we leave our dog somewhere is our dog loves to go on walks. Council: So, would that indoor place that wants to take dogs for walks, like, one at a time, would they need a CUP for that? Because that would then be outdoor activity. Council: I don't think that's what this contemplates. I think, if they want to take the dog on a walk, that's… anyone can take a single dog on a walk. Council: What we're really talking about is outdoor facilities where they're gonna let the dogs play and run around, kind of more of like a dog park setting. Council: Okay, yeah. Council: Alright, well, thank you. Council: Alright, thanks, Commissioner Manning. Yeah, Commissioner Jackson. Yes, I do have a question with regards to the facilities themselves. Council: It gets hot in Lincoln. I mean, are we going to make sure that the owners provide air conditioning, you know, if it's an indoor facility? Also, of course, possibly heat when it gets cold like it has been the last several, several weeks, you know, is that something that's also going to be, Council: Told to the owner that they need to provide. Council: I think that really comes down to the fact that a business owner has to make decisions for their business model, and I know as a dog owner myself, if I were taking a dog… my dogs live indoor, outdoor, and during the summers, they are indoor almost all day, because of the air conditioning. Council: I don't foresee us having to require that, because I don't think a responsible dog owner is going to take their dog to a facility Council: Where in the summer, they're living in a tin can. Council: and boiling, and in the winter, they're living in a freezing facility. That… that just isn't smart business ownership, and I don't think that's something that we necessarily Council: want to over-regulate. Now, when it comes to a conditional use permit and outdoor facilities, yes, we may be looking at Council: Are there shade structures? Are there misters? Are there, you know, heat lamps available? But I think that is really… I would have a really hard time imagining any business owner that ran a completely indoor facility not having it climate controlled because they're not going to attract Council: Customers. Council: Excellent. Any other questions or comments? Council: Alright, we'll have another chance after public comments. Council: So, I will now open the public hearing. Citizens wishing to speak on this item may request to speak by raising your hand. Council: When requested to do so, please limit your comment to 3 minutes. Secretary, do we have any hands raised online, or anyone in the chambers that wishes to speak? Council: There were hands… no hands raised online. I do not see any hands raised in chambers. I did not receive any cards. Okay. Council: Thank you. Council: So seeing none, I will go ahead and close the public comment period. Council: And bring it back to my colleagues. Does anyone have any additional comments? Council: On the commission. Council: Alright, if none, would anyone like to make a motion? Council: I'll, make a motion that we approve the ordinance as put before us. Council: I'll second. Council: All right, we got a motion and a second. Roll call, please. Council: Commissioner Gilbert? Council: Commissioner Hutchinson? Yes. Council: Commissioner Jackson? Council: Commissioner Jerry Johnson? Yes. Council: Vice Chair Manning? Yes. Council: And Chair Johnson. Yes. Council: Alright, motion passes. Council: 6, yeah, 0 and then, I guess, absent. 601. 601. There we go. Council: Perfect. Thank you. Council: Alright, I'll move on to item number 11, General Business. There are two items. So the first item… Council: 11A is ad hoc theme and naming committee approval to appoint public member Ronnie Breeley to the committee. And we will have a staff report by our planning manager, Mel Pavolinas, please. Thank you. Council: This is just simple documentation of, nominating, Ronnie Briley, to the, Them and Naming Committee meeting, committee. Council: Ronnie's actually one of our members, in serving the Design Review Board for quite a while now, ever since I started here. Council: And, this opportunity, came up, with, following the resignation by Shirley Russell from the tank. Council: Total… in total, we have Mr. Manning as one of our, tech members, and also Jerry Johnson. Council: And Ronnie would be a great addition to the team. Council: So we, staff, want to forward this to your commission for approval and consideration. Council: Excellent. Council: Thank you, for bringing this forward. So, sounds like we need to take action on it, correct? Council: And approve it? Okay. Council: Correct, and you'd need to open this item for public comment, because it is general business. Okay. Excellent. Well, I guess before I open up public comment, are there any questions or comments from public commissioners? Go ahead. Commissioner Johnson? Yeah. Council: Mel, you didn't, Council: mention, Elizabeth Jansen, isn't she on the committee as well? My bad, yeah, Elizabeth's also on the… It's important that we have… Yeah, we do. Some have a history buff on there. Yeah. Okay. Council: Alright, Council: Let's see, so I'll go ahead and open it to public comment. Secretary, do we have any hands raised online, or anyone in the chambers? Council: I have no hands raised online. I don't see any in the room, and I did not receive any cards. Council: Okay. Council: Excellent. I'll go ahead and close public comment period and bring it back to us. Do we have any further discussion or comments from the Commission? Council: Another question to Mel. Okay, go ahead. Council: did, ronnie? Yeah, Ronnie. Council: Ronnie, give a reason why she wanted to be on the committee? What… what is her motivation? Council: Other than she's really active being part of the community. She's a realtor by trade. Council: I informed her of this opportunity, kind of extending her community's… her public service. Council: informed her of what we do, expressed to her that we name streets, you know, we name parks, you know, make recommendations. And she's, you know, she's involved with her kids and whatnot, and also part of the city, as I said. Council: So that sparked interest in her, so… and it just… Council: an opportunity opened up, and then she expressed interest, and so she signed up. And then, so, that's kind of how it all, transpired. Council: Commissioner Hutchinson? I was just going to say that I've known Ronnie for several years. She serves on the Design Review Board, and she's, she's been a great asset to the DRB. She's very involved in the community, she's involved with her school, she is a, Council: Cheerleader for Lincoln. Council: And so I definitely would support this, nomination. Council: Do we have any other comments from commissioners? I think it's great that she, wants to be involved. Council: Me too, yeah, being a resident over in Toll Bridges, I know she's… I've seen her very active in the community, so it's great, to have a very active community member involved. Council: with this. Council: With that, seeing no more comments or questions, I'll, look for a motion and… Council: I'll make a motion that we approve this nomination. Council: I second that. Council: Excellent. So we have a motion and second. Roll call, please. Council: That's important. Council: Okay, we'll do a voice vote. All in favor, say aye. Aye. Council: Any opposed? Council: Abstentions? I think that was everybody. Alright, so motion passes. Council: Now we'll move along to Item 11B, the Planning Commission 2026 meeting schedule, and again, a staff report by our Planning Manager, Melanas, please. Council: Yeah, so this is the… not sure if it's available online. Council: But, before you is a list of our, this year's Planning Commission Council: meetings. Again, we have it once, once a month. Council: The one change from last year was that we removed, Council: kind of the mid-year, the July date, Council: Like, an off date, mid-year. Council: We thought that… You know, we want to be flexible to applicants, projects. Council: And if needed, if no projects come through, is ready, we can always cancel it, like we've done a couple times last year. Council: But… but having it more flexible, really just available there, you know, it's on… it's on schedule, it's predictable. Council: And perhaps, maybe not. Council: maybe the December one could be… could be questionable, but nevertheless, it's… I think it's… it's manageable, but all depends on… on the products that are available. And this year. Council: We have a lot of projects in process, next month and the following months thereafter. Council: Excellent. Council: Thank you for preparing that, and yeah, I think that's great to get all the dates out there, so we can all mark our calendars. Do we have any public comment on this one? Council: I think this is largely an informational item. Our municipal code calls out that the meetings are on the third Wednesday of the month, so I think this is just an informational item. Perfect. Alright, so no action items on that one. We just have anybody with children in our district. Council: I mean, in our school, in our city, or on this board, I think that February 18th meeting is, ski week, or whatever they call it, so… it's probably gonna be a little empty in here. A lot of people take that week off. Council: A
