The applicant, Mr. Wenger was in attendance requesting a permit to be allowed to breed Yorkshire Terrier puppies, possibly 8, on his property where he lives and operates a farm and business. He has met with the Animal Control Officer. Tracey Taddeo, Animal Control Officer was in attendance. She stated she did visit the site, spoke with the owner. He currently has a heated indoor area. She feels that 8 adult breeders will be acceptable but would like to suggest an outdoor area for the dogs to run in. Mr. Wenger’s closest abutter is 300 feet across the street and he is 150’ off the road himself. He did supply a site map of the property. He will be breeding and not boarding. The puppies must be sold before 6 months olds. The waste will be used in the fields as fertilizer. He has a
caretaker if he happens to be away. Mike Connors, 13 Bellstone Drive inquired about advertising the pups as he felt there were already many signs on the property.
