Public Hearing  
A.  
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 1205 AND 1206 OF THE

APPLICABLE TO BOARDING KENNELS AND VETERINARY  
FACILITIES.  
Brief Description: Ordinance to revise the districts which permit boarding  
kennels and veterinary facilities and to incorporate a 300 foot setback to  
adjacent residentially zoned parcels for boarding kennels.  
Attachments:  
Mayor Anzevino opened the public hearing for Ordinance No. 25-92 at 7:52 p.m. All witnesses were sworn in  
prior to their testimonies.  
Dr. Dan Bestic, 7608 Yennicook Way, urged Council to reconsider a 300-foot setback for veterinary clinics,  
questioned why the legislation is necessary at this time, and noise levels. He stated that the zoning change  
would negatively impact existing businesses from expanding, such as creating an emergency veterinary hospital .  
Mr. Scott Lancaster, 6900 Hunting Hollow Lane West, spoke in support of the proposed ordinance due to the  
impact on quality of life, traffic and safety, sanitation and would help with the placement of veterinary facilities.  
Ms. Elisa Poggi, 1230 Hunting Hollow Dr., shared her frustration that Council had not voted on the legislation  
and that she was now hearing about an emergency vet hospital, grooming facility, a private dog park, and  
kennel. She stated that she submitted evidence to the Planning Commission about noise and when more than  
one dog is introduced.  
Ms. Samantha D'Eramo, 6917 St. Regis Blvd., stated that the previous business on Prospect St. was a boarding  
facility and it was purchased with the intent to have the same type of facility.  
Ms. Carol Laspina, 1621 Prospect St., argued that the previous business on Prospect St. was not a 10,000  
square foot facility with multiple services. She also stated that she spoke with staff at MyEyeDr., who said there  
was a distinct smell on the warmer days coming from the vet office next door.  
Dr. Valerie Shaker, 1948 Christine Dr., spoke in opposition to the proposed ordinance, stating that the Vet  
Center would not be able to expand with services beneficial to the community, such as an emergency center or  
cat-only clinic.  
Mr. Tim Laspina, 1621 Prospect St., stated that proposed use of the Prospect St. land does not meet the Land  
Development Code standard, the permit was not approved and the site has not been remediated .  
Ms. Tara Gallegos, 1481 Prospect Rd., spoke in support of the proposed ordinance because development should  
not negatively impact residential neighborhoods, with increased traffic and no sidewalks.  
Ms. Dottie Movshin, 1501 Prospect, spoke in support of the proposed ordinance, stating there are more  
appropriate places for businesses.  
Mr. Sutton provided a summary of why the proposed ordinance was introduced and noted there are no active  
kennel applications.  
Further Council discussion occurred regarding other areas of District 2, the effect that a 300 foot setback would  
have on businesses, and balancing residents and businesses in the same space .  
There being no further comments, Mayor Anzevino closed the public hearing on Ordinance No . 25-92 at 8:35  
p.m.  
A public hearing was held on Ordinance No. 25-92.  
9.  
Public Comments  
Ms. Samanatha D'Eramo, 6917 St. Regis Blvd. asked about the difference between "voters" versus "electors" in  
the proposed Charter amendments.  
Mrs. Sarah Norman, 2212 Edgeview Dr., stated that the reason for the Planning Commission moratorium  
legislation is to provide a pause in order to review the Land Development Code.  
Mr. Ron Brubaker, 7593 Partridge Meadows Dr. East, stated that the Life Center Plus facility has gone into  
receivership and suggested that the City take another look at it as a community recreation center .  
Mr. Scott Lancaster, 6900 Hunting Hollow Lane West, commented that the City of Solon has a very nice  
recreation center and it would be beneficial for Hudson to have one as well.  
Ms. Carol Laspina, 1621 W. Prospect St., stated that she would also like to see a recreation center for the Life  
Center Plus facility is in disrepair and it would be more valuable to start new on vacant land.  
Mr. Rob Kagler, 65 Manor Dr., commented on the duties of the Environmental Awareness Committee being  
included in the proposed Park and Natural Resource Board Charter amendment and asked the City not to  
restrict free speech.  
10.
