J. Zwart present - stated reason for applying for Vdri cZ nc E
was at suggestion of Z. 0. because there was no reference in ordinance
other than use as professional building (offices). Zwart also explained
property was over 3 acres, access to be from Johnson Rd., building would
be as near corner of Rt. 13 & Johnson Rd. as zoning permitted, only parking
to be between front of building & Johnson Rd., & there would be no outside
runs. Also proposed an apartment in basement for purpose of having some-
one on site for care of animals. Present location (corner of Spring House
Rd. & Rt. 13) no longer feasible. Too small, no.insulation, not enough
room for separate X -ray room as required by Federal regulations.
D. Yaw - 353 Johnson Rd. was pleased there would be no outside pens, but
curious if Zwart aware of water -wet lands there.
