The applicant plans to construct and operate an indoor dog training facility. The property is zoned Agricultural, General (A-1). The CUP is required by County Zoning Ordinance Sec. 15-102. The Comprehensive Plan designates this area as Rural Enhancement Area.]

THE CUP IS REQUIRED BY COUNTY ZONING ORDINANCE SECTION 15 1 0 2.

THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATES THIS AREA AS RULE ENHANCEMENT AREA.

THANK YOU MR. MORTON.

MAYOR COMMISSION.

TOM COLEMAN, PRINCIPAL PLANNER.

UM, AS THIS WAS INTRODUCED, THIS IS A CONDITIONS PERMIT FOR A COMMERCIAL KENNEL TO FEATURE INDOOR TRAINING FOR DOGS.

UM, THIS IS LOCATED IN THE WESTERN PART OF THE COUNTY.

UM, LOOKED AT THE ARROW PHOTO, CAN SEE, SEE THAT THE SUBJECT PROPERTY, UH, AND MANY OF THE OTHER PROPERTIES ARE EITHER UNDEVELOPED OR EXHIBIT A RURAL CHARACTER.

UM, THIS PROPERTY IS LOCATED ABOUT A MILE EAST OF OLD FREDERICKSBURG ROAD OR THE HAYDENVILLE CROSSROADS VILLAGE.

UM, THE SUBJECT PROPERTY AND ALL THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES ARE DESIGNATED AS A RURAL ENHANCEMENT AREA IN THE CONFERENCE OF PLAN AND ARE ZONED AGRICULTURALLY.

JUST A BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY UNDEVELOPED.

UH, THE APPLICANT DID PURCHASE THE PROPERTY IN OCTOBER OF 2023 WITH THE INTENT TO RELOCATE HER FAMILY TO THIS PROPERTY AND TO DEVELOP A FACILITY FOR THE INDOOR TRAINING OF DOGS IN THE SPORT OF FLYBALL.

NOW I'LL DEFER TO THE APPLICANT TO EXPLAIN A LITTLE BIT MORE TO YOU ABOUT WHAT THE SPORT OF FLYBALL IS, BUT, UM, IT DOES INVOLVE THE CONSTRUCTION OF A BUILDING ABOUT 6,000 SQUARE FEET.

I'LL GIVE YOU A LITTLE MORE DETAIL ON THAT IN A MOMENT.

AND SOME PARKING.

UH, THERE WOULD NOT BE ANY OUTDOOR DOG RUNS OR SIMILAR OUTDOOR STRUCTURES FOR THE DOGS.

EXCUSE ME.

UM, LOOKING AT THE EXCEPTIONAL PLAN, I DID WANNA POINT OUT A COUPLE THINGS.

UM, THAT THIS PROPERTY, UM, IS NOT LOCATED ON BROAD STREET.

THERE IS A PROPERTY BETWEEN THE SUBJECT PROPERTY AND BROAD STREET ROAD.

THEY WILL SHARE AN ACCESS AND I'VE SORT OF HIGHLIGHTED THAT IN GREEN ON HERE.

UM, AND THE SUBJECT PROPERTY WOULD, UM, EXCUSE ME, THE OTHER PROPERTY, UH, BETWEEN THE SUBJECT PROPERTY AND BROAD WOULD ALSO HAVE TO UTILIZE THAT SAME ACCESS.

SO THEY WILL SHARE THAT ACCESS.

CIRCLE IT IN RED IS THE LOCATION OF THE BUILDING AND THE PARKING AREA TO SORT OF HAVE AN EXHIBIT OF ABOUT WHAT THAT WOULD LOOK LIKE BOTH IN THE OUTSIDE AND SORT OF INDOORS.

UM, IT IS, UH, ABOUT A 6,000 SQUARE FEET.

UM, IT'S A GALVANIZED METAL BUILDING.

WOULD HAVE GRAVEL FLOORING WITH SOME RUBBER MATS INSIDE SOME INDOOR CRAD.

UM, IT WILL HAVE INDOOR BATHROOMS AND, UH, SEVERAL ENTRANCES OUTSIDE.

UM, OF COURSE THIS THE, UH, APPLICANT ALSO INTENDS TO BUILD THEIR HOME ON THE PROPERTY.

THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE CUP, THAT CAN BE

[00:05:01]

UM, THE ACTIVITIES ARE PRE-SCHEDULED, SORT OF APPOINTMENT ONLY TYPE ACTIVITIES.

THE MAXIMUM WOULD BE ABOUT 50 DOGS, ABOUT 40 PEOPLE.

UM, SOME CLIENTS DO HAVE MULTIPLE DOGS.

UM, SO THEY'RE ON AVERAGE MIGHT BE MORE DOGS AND PEOPLE THERE.

UM, THERE'S THREE TYPES OF ACTIVITIES, UH, CLASSES WHICH WOULD OCCUR WEEKLY.

AND THESE ACTIVITIES WOULD TYPICALLY OCCUR ABOUT TWO TO THREE TIMES A WEEK.

UM, THE CLASSES COULD BE UP TO ABOUT 10 DOGS OR ABOUT 10 PEOPLE.

THEY'RE BOOT CAMPS THAT WOULD BE A LITTLE BIT LARGER.

THAT WOULD HELP MONTHLY.

THAT WOULD BE UP TO ABOUT 18 DOGS OR ABOUT 18 PEOPLE.

AND THEN A SCRIMMAGE, WHICH IS THE LARGEST EVENT THAT SHE'D INDICATED THAT THEY WOULD HOST, WOULD BE ONE TO TWO TIMES PER YEAR.

THAT COULD BE UP TO 50 PEOPLE OR UP TO, EXCUSE ME, UP TO 50 DOGS OR ABOUT 40 PEOPLE.

TYPICALLY, THERE ARE NO SPECTATORS HERE AND NO DOGS WILL BE STAYING AT THIS FACILITY OVERNIGHT.

THOSE COMMUNITY MEETING HELD IN NOVEMBER, THERE WERE EIGHT PEOPLE THERE.

THEY HAD A COUPLE QUESTIONS ABOUT, UH, THE NUMBER OF CARS WOULD BE, UM, VISITING THE SITE, OUTDOOR LIGHTING, HOW SHE OPERATES, HER DOG TRAINING THAT WAS OPERATION AND THE SETBACK OF THE FACILITIES FROM THE PROPERTY LINES.

UM, THE TWO ATTENDEES DID, UH, VOICE THEIR SUPPORT FOR THE APPLICATION AT THAT COMMUNITY MEETING.

UM, PROPERTY REGULATED BY CEP CONDITIONS, UH, CONDITION USE, UH, WOULD BE GENERALLY CONSISTENT WITH THE ROLE ENHANCEMENT AREA LAND USE DESIGNATION.

JUST BRIEFLY GO THROUGH, UM, THE CONDITIONS.

THE FIRST CONDITION WOULD ALLOW THE COMMERCIAL DOG KENNEL FOR THE TRAINING AT THIS LOCATION.

UH, THE SECOND ONE WOULD BE TO ADHERE TO THE CONCEPTUAL PLAN, UH, THAT I SHOWED YOU EARLIER.

UM, THE THIRD ONE WOULD REQUIRE ALL NECESSARY APPROVALS INCLUDING SITE PLANS, BUILDING PLANS, ET CETERA.

ALL OF THOSE TO BE OBTAINED BEFORE BEGINNING OPERATIONS.

UH, THE FOURTH ONE IS FOR PARKING WAIVER.

UM, EXCEEDING 10, UM, SPACES.

THE CODE REQUIRES PAID PARKING.

THERE IS PROVISION TO WAIVE THAT, TO ALLOW GRAVEL PARKING, UH, CONSISTENT THAT WE, WE OFTEN DO IN, IN THE RURAL AREAS TO SORT OF HELP RETAIN MORE OF THE RURAL CHARACTER.

BUT IT DOES REQUIRE A WAIVER, UM, TO BE APPROVED.

UM, FOR THAT, THAT PARKING WAIVER.

HANDICAP PARKING SPACES HAVE TO BE PAVED.

THERE IS NO WAIVER OF THAT.

UM, THERE ACCESS ROAD I MENTIONED THAT SHOULD ROAD, THAT ACCESS ROAD THAT WOULD CONNECT THIS PROPERTY, UM, TO BROAD STREET ROAD THAT WOULD WOULD'VE TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF FIRE RESCUE AND THE DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT.

THE HOURS OF OPERATION WOULD BE LIMITED FROM 9:00 AM TO 9:00 PM DAILY.

UM, THERE WOULD BE A MAXIMUM OF 50 DOGS AT THE FACILITY AT ONE TIME, OR 49 PEOPLE AT THE FACILITY.

BOTH MAXIMUMS WOULD, UH, BE IN PLACE.

THERE WOULD BE NO OUTSIDE FACILITIES FOR DOGS HERE.

UM, NUMBER 10 ABOUT ODOR.

UM, THEY WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR MANAGING THE ODOR IF, IF ANY RESULTS FROM THE WASTE PRODUCED ON THE SITE TO MAKE SURE THAT DOESN'T IMPACT ANY ADJACENT PROPERTY OWNERS.

UH, NUMBER 11, THEY ARE REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN A 30 FOOT BUFFER VEGETATED BUFFER AROUND THE PERIMETER OF THE SITE.

UH, NUMBER 12, THEY ARE ALLOWED TO HAVE ONE DETACHED SIGN.

THIS DOES COME WITH A RECOMMENDATION FOR FIVE YEAR APPROVAL IF THE PLAN COMMISSION RECOMMENDS APPROVAL.

AND THEN LAST ONE IS OUR STANDARD, UH, UH, CONDITION AS IT RELATES TO THE TRANSFER OR LEASE OF THE PROPERTY.

AND THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.

I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.

UM, I SEE THAT NEW DOGS WILL BE STAYING THERE OVERNIGHT, SO THE CLIENTS WILL BE BRINGING THE DOGS THERE EARLY.

CORRECT.

THERE'D BE DAILY ACTIVITIES.

OKAY.

MM-HMM, .

AND, UM, APPROXIMATELY HOW MANY CLIENTS WILL, WILL, WILL A AVERAGE DAY HAVE? UM, WHAT I DO, I COULD DEFER TO THE APPLICANT.

UM, THIS IS AN EXISTING BUSINESS, SO I THINK SHE CAN PROVIDE SOME INFORMATION ABOUT THE, UH, FELT LIKE THE AVERAGE PEOPLE THAT ARE THERE EACH DAY.

IT IS AN EXISTING, IT'S EXISTING BUSINESS LOCATED IN DANVILLE, IN DANVILLE, VIRGINIA.

SO SHE'D BE RELOCATING HER FAMILY AND THE BUSINESS TO THIS SITE.

SHE, I MEAN, SHE DOES HAVE EXPERIENCE OPERATING SUCH A FACILITY IN ANOTHER JURISDICTION.

GOOD.

THANKS.

WOULD THE APPLICANT LIKE TO SPEAK? I WOULD LOVE TO.

.

THANK YOU.

YOU DID A GREAT JOB.

I FEEL LIKE I COULD TALK ABOUT THE FUN STUFF.

.

OKAY.

YOU GUYS HAVE IT UP THERE.

I WAS LIKE, MM-HMM.

TRYING TO SEE WHERE YOU WERE.

YEAH, WE HAVE IT GONNA BE LOOKING OVERWHELMING BY TECHNOLOGY.

I LOVE IT.

OKAY.

ALL RIGHT.

SO BEFORE I GO INTO MY POWERPOINT, I WANNA INTRODUCE MYSELF.

SO I'M SHELLY ICK, THE OWNER OF PRECISION FLYBALL TRAINING.

UM, LIKE TOM MENTIONED, I HAVE BEEN OPEN FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS IN DANVILLE, VIRGINIA.

UM, AND ONE OF MY BIGGEST REASONS FOR MOVING IS MY FAMILY.

UM, SO I HAVE A LITTLE PICTURE HERE OF US AT THE BEACH LAST YEAR.

SO I HAVE MY,

[00:10:01]

UM, THEY'RE VERY OUTDOOR, WILD, FERAL BOYS, .

AND THEN I HAVE A PICTURE HERE OF OUR FOUR DOGS THAT I DID NOT BRING TONIGHT.

UM, BUT THEY RANGE FROM ONE TO NINE AND THEY PLAY FLYBALL AS WELL AS A COUPLE OTHER DOG SPORTS.

WHAT KIND OF DOGS ARE THEY? UH, THE BLACK ONE ON THE LEFT IS A WHIP IT AND THEN A WHIP IT MIX, WHIP IT MIX, AND THEN A WHIP IT.

SO, WOW.

BUNCH OF TELLING ME ALREADY WHAT FLYBALL IS ALL ABOUT TODAY.

YEAH, YEAH.

THEY SPEED MADE FOR SPEED, BUT ANY DOG CAN PLAY.

UM, SO WHY DID I PICK GLAND COUNTY? UM, SO CURRENTLY RIGHT NOW I'M SERVICING VIRGINIA, NORTH CAROLINA, SOUTH CAROLINA, TENNESSEE, GEORGIA, AND SOUTH CAROLINA.

UM, SO THE FLYBALL IS A A VERY SPECIFIC SPORT.

AND TO TRAIN FOR IT, YOU HAVE TO VISIT A TRAINER OR YOUR CLUB YOURSELF.

SO IF YOU HAVE TROUBLE, IT'S EASIER TO SEE A TRAINER.

UM, SO PEOPLE TRAVEL ALL OVER.

UM, TYPICALLY FOR THE MONTHLY BOOT CAMPS THAT TOM MENTIONED, THOSE WILL GET THE PEOPLE THAT ARE TRAVELING A FURTHER DISTANCE.

UM, BUT RIGHT NOW I AM GETTING PEOPLE FROM PENNSYLVANIA AND NEW JERSEY.

UM, AND THAT NORTHERN REGION HAS EXPRESSED A LOT OF INTEREST SAYING, IF YOU'RE JUST A LITTLE BIT CLOSER, WE COULD SEE YOU MORE OFTEN.

UM, SO IT IS EXCITING TO KNOW THAT I'LL BE ABLE TO HAVE MORE PEOPLE FROM WEST VIRGINIA, PENNSYLVANIA, NEW JERSEY, MARYLAND, UM, THOSE AREAS.

AND THERE'S ACTUALLY A, A WELL ESTABLISHED TEAM HERE.

UM, CANINE KICKSTART IS IN RICHMOND.

UM, SO THEY HAVE A VERY LARGE TEAM AND THEY PRACTICE IN ASHLAND RIGHT NOW.

SO PROBABLY BE MOVING HEADQUARTERS TO GLAND SOON.

UM, SO WHY DID I PICK GLAND PERSONALLY? UM, REALLY THE PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM THAT WAS, IT WAS KNOWING THAT ACADEMICS AND THE SPORTS PROGRAMS WITH MY KIDS, UM, THAT REALLY WAS MY DECISION.

UM, I'M VERY EXCITED ABOUT OUR BUILDING, OUR DREAM HOME.

UM, WE'RE GONNA START THAT IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS.

UM, FLYBALL TRAINING IS A FAMILY SPORT, SO AS SOON AS A KID CAN WALK, LIKE THEY'RE PICKING UP BALLS OR THEY'RE PITCHING IN, AND THEN ONCE THEY GET A LITTLE OLDER, THEY GET TO RUN A DOG.

UM, SO IT'S SUPER FAMILY FRIENDLY.

UM, SO I'M REALLY EXCITED THAT MY KIDS GET TO GROW UP AROUND THAT.

AND THEN HOPEFULLY THEY'LL PLAY WITH ME.

WE'LL SEE , UM, ALL THE DIFFERENT OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES THAT YOU GUYS HAVE, ALL THE FESTIVALS I'VE BEEN FOLLOWING FOR THE LAST YEAR AND ALL MY FRIENDS THAT ARE ALREADY HERE ARE LIKE, DON'T FORGET, PUT THIS ON YOUR CALENDAR.

UM, SO I'M REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THOSE OPPORTUNITIES BECAUSE I GREW UP IN THE COUNTRY, LIKE PLAYING IN THE CREEK, PLAYING IN THE MUD AND WATCHING THE STARS AT NIGHT, WHICH I DON'T HAVE.

SO I'M REALLY EXCITED TO KIND OF GET BACK TO THOSE COUNTRY ROOTS.

AND THEN MY HUSBAND'S FAMILY ARE IN SOUTHERN MARYLAND, SO WE'RE GONNA BE A LOT CLOSER TO OUR SUPPORT NETWORK.

OKAY, SO A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT MYSELF.

I'VE BEEN PLAYING IN TRAINING FLYBALL FOR OVER 15 YEARS.

SO PRECISION ITSELF HAS OFFICIALLY BEEN IN PLACE FOR TWO YEARS, BUT I'VE BEEN TRAINING LOW-KEY FOR OVER 15 YEARS.

UM, I LAST, UH, LAST FALL I FINISHED MY YEAR LONG CERTIFICATION THROUGH NC STATE TO BECOME A CANINE STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING COACH.

SO IT'S KIND OF LIKE A FITNESS TRAINER FOR DOGS.

UM, BECAUSE IT IS A SPORT, WE WANNA MAKE SURE THAT OUR ATHLETES ARE IN AS BEST SHAPE AS POSSIBLE.

SO WE KIND OF FOCUS ON THAT.

UM, I'VE BEEN ON ESPN TWO ABOUT FOUR TIMES FOR FOUR DIFFERENT EVENTS, AND I HAVE TAUGHT STUDENTS IN SEX ED SEVEN CONTINENTS.

OKAY, SO HERE IS THE FIRST VIDEO AND AS IT'S PULLING UP, I'LL GIVE YOU A HEADS UP.

SO FLYBALL, IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THIS CRAZY VIDEO YET, YOU CAN, YOU CAN START PULLING IT UP.

UM, IT IS A RELAY RACE MIXED WITH DRAG RACING.

SO THEY GO DOWN OVER FOUR HURDLES AND THEY HIT A BOX AND THEY GRAB A TENNIS BALL AND THEY CARRY IT BACK AND THEN THE NEXT DOG GOES AND IT'S FAST AND IT INVOLVES HANDLING, TAKES A LITTLE BIT OF SKILL.

SO THAT'S THE CRAZINESS OF FLYBALL .

SO IT'S A LOT OF FUN.

UM, AND THAT PARTICULAR EVENT HAD ABOUT 150 DOGS CRATED INDOORS.

UM, SO YOU COULD KIND OF TELL IN THE BACKGROUND LIKE IT HAD A BUNCH OF BARKING, IT WAS LOUD, IT WAS AMPED UP AND CHARGED.

THAT IS NOT WHAT I'M DOING IN THIS FACILITY.

SO THAT IS A COMPETITION.

THAT'S WHERE WE ALL TAKE OUR TEAMS. WE TRAVEL, WE MEET UP THERE AND WE COMPETE AND IT'S LOUD AND WILD AND WE LOVE IT.

UM, TRAINING, HOW DO WE GET TO THAT LEVEL? SO THAT'S ON A MUCH SMALLER SCALE.

SO ON THE NEXT SLIDE, UM, I'LL KIND OF SHOW WHAT WILL I BE DOING IN THAT FACILITY.

SO WHAT DO I NORMALLY DO? SO THIS JUST KIND OF SHOWS A DOG THAT WAS IN BASIC TRAINING, JUST WORKING ON THE LITTLE MECHANICS.

SO THAT'S IT.

PAUSE THAT ONE.

SO THAT KIND OF SHOWS HOW IT'S MUCH MORE INDIVIDUAL ATTENTION.

[00:15:01]

UM, SO YOU KIND OF TAKE THE DOG, YOU HAVE TO TEACH THEM HOW TO DO IT, AND THEN YOU CAN THROW 'EM INTO THAT CRAZY ATMOSPHERE.

ALL RIGHT.

LEMME SEE IF I TAKE BACK OVER.

PERFECT.

THAT WORKED AMAZINGLY.

ALL RIGHT.

SO THE SERVICES WE OFFERED, I'LL, I'LL RUN THROUGH THEM ONE MORE TIME.

THERE'S A COUPLE EXTRAS ON HERE.

SO THE WEEKLY CLASSES, UM, HAVE EIGHT DOGS.

THEY USUALLY LAST TWO TO TWO AND A HALF HOURS, AND THEY'RE HELD ONE TO THREE TIMES A WEEK.

THE MONTHLY BOOT CAMPS, 16 TO 18 DOGS.

UM, USUALLY IT'S ON A WEEKEND, SO A SATURDAY OR A SUNDAY, UM, FROM NINE TO FOUR.

AND THEN PRIVATE LESSONS, PEOPLE CAN WORK ONE-ON-ONE WITH ME FOR 30 TO 90 MINUTES.

I TRAIN ONLINE.

I HAVE A BUNCH OF DIFFERENT ONLINE PLATFORMS THAT I'LL USE SO THAT I CAN HELP TRAIN ANYONE IN THE WORLD.

I WAS JUST CHATTING WITH SOMEONE IN AUSTRALIA BEFORE WE STARTED THIS MEETING.

UM, AND THEN WE TALKED ABOUT THE SCRIMMAGES, WHERE THOSE ARE LIKE, ALMOST LIKE A MINI TOURNAMENT.

IT'S A LITTLE BIT MORE HYPED, UM, BUT ONLY ONCE OR TWICE A YEAR IF I HAVE THEM AT THIS NEW FACILITY.

UM, AND THEN I DO TRAVEL FOR SEMINARS.

SO LAST YEAR I WENT TO IDAHO, COLORADO, CALIFORNIA AND TENNESSEE.

AND I'M HEADED TO ALASKA IN NEXT NOVEMBER.

SO THAT'S EXCITING.

ALL RIGHT, SO HERE'S PICTURES OF MY CURRENT FACILITY.

SO YOU CAN DEFINITELY SEE, ESPECIALLY FROM THE VIDEOS, LIKE IT'S A LONG BUILDING.

SO THAT'S WHY WE KIND OF NEED THAT LINK.

SO THE NEW BUILDING WILL BE 40 BY ONE, 50, THE TWO BATHROOMS INDOOR CRAD.

AND I'M SUPER EXCITED ABOUT HVAC 'CAUSE I DON'T HAVE HEATING AND AIR RIGHT NOW AND IT'S PRETTY MISERABLE , BUT I'VE GOT A LOT OF REALLY GOOD CLIENTS THAT THAT STICK WITH ME.

UM, SO IT'LL, IT WILL BE 12 FEET TALL, UM, THE CRUSHED GRAVEL UNDERNEATH, BUT A RUBBER MATTING FLOORING.

SO IT'LL REALLY GIVE SOME GOOD CUSHION.

UM, RIGHT NOW I HAVE CONCRETE AND IT'S A LITTLE DANGEROUS FOR WHEN THE PEOPLE FALL.

UM, IT, YOU KNOW, SHOES TRIPPING, THINGS LIKE THAT.

IT HAPPENS.

UM, THERE WILL BE CLOSED CELL SPRAY FOAM ON BOTH THE SIDES AND THE CEILING.

NOT ONLY TO PROVIDE INSULATION, BUT ALSO TO DAMPEN NOISE.

UM, AND THEN THE SMALL GRAVEL PARKING LOT.

SO WE ALREADY TALKED ABOUT THE, THE FACILITY AND THE LOCATION AND UM, SOME RULES FOR FLYBALL DOGS.

SO THESE ARE JUST PRETTY GENERAL RULES.

IT'S WELL UNDERSTOOD IN THE COMMUNITY.

UM, CLEANING UP, EVERYBODY CARRIES POOP BAGS.

IF YOU DON'T HAVE A POOP BAG, YOU HAVE A FRIEND THAT'LL GIVE YOU A POOP BAG.

UM, SO THERE WILL BE STATIONS THAT, UH, WILL BE DESIGNATED POTTY AREAS AND WASTE WILL BE PICKED UP AND REMOVED PROMPTLY.

UM, RESTING.

SO FOR A FLYBALL DOG, WHEN YOU'RE COMPETING, WHEN IT'S YOUR WORKING TURN, YOU'RE OUT TO WORK.

AND WHEN IT'S NOT YOUR TURN, YOU'RE RESTING IN YOUR CRATE.

UM, SO THERE'S NO OUTDOOR RUN, THERE'S NO OUTSIDE BARKING.

UM, PEOPLE DON'T OFTEN KEEP THEIR DOG OUT ON LEASH.

LIKE YOU.

THE WHOLE POINT OF THE COMMUNITY SPORT IS YOU PITCH IN.

SO WHEN IT'S NOT YOUR TURN, YOU'RE HELPING SOMEBODY ELSE'S DOG.

UM, SAFETY, UM, THEIR DOGS WILL ALWAYS BE ON LEASH AT ALL TIMES AND THEY SHOULD BE WITH THEIR OWNERS.

THEY'RE NOT GONNA BE LEAVING THEM GOING OFF SOMEWHERE AND THEN COMING BACK.

UM, AND BY APPOINTMENT ONLY.

SO THEY HAVE TO MAKE SURE THEY BOOK IN ADVANCE TO ATTEND A CLASS, A BOOTCAMP, OR PRIVATE, ESPECIALLY SINCE THEY FILL UP.

SO IF YOU WANT A SPOT, YOU HAVE TO GET IT.

ALL RIGHT.

SO I'M EXCITED ABOUT THE QUESTIONS THAT YOU GUYS HAVE FOR ME.

, EXACTLY.

HOW MANY OR APPROXIMATELY HOW MANY CLIENTS ARE YOU EXPECTING EACH DAY? EACH DAY? UM, IT COULD BE EIGHT, IT COULD BE 16 TO 18 IF IT WAS A BOOTCAMP DAY.

UM, AND THEN THE SCRIMMAGE DAY.

THAT ONE'S, I MEAN, SCRIMMAGE DAY IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT.

'CAUSE THAT WOULD BE MORE OF LIKE A TEAM FOCUS, NOT SO MUCH THE INDIVIDUALS BEING CLIENTS.

SO DEPENDING ON HOW YOU WORDED IT, BUT IT COULD HAVE 40 PEOPLE I THINK IS WHAT WE SAID WOULD BE THE AVERAGE.

SO THE 40 PEOPLE EVENT, WOULD THAT BE LIKE ON A, ON A WEEKEND OR DURING THE WEEK? YEAH, IT WOULD BE ON THE WEEKEND.

OKAY.

'CAUSE THOSE WOULD BE TOO BIG TO SO YOU WOULD HAVE A JUST A FEW PEOPLE THERE ON MONDAY? YES, MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY.

I WOULD EXPECT THERE TO BE EIGHT, NO MORE THAN 16 PEOPLE.

IF I DID TWO CLASSES, LIKE A MORNING CLASS AND AN AFTERNOON CLASS, THAT'D BE EIGHT IN THE MORNING AND EIGHT AT NIGHT.

UM, SO NO SUBSTANTIAL IMPACT ON, ON TRAFFIC ON, I WOULD HOPE NOT MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY.

CORRECT.

AND I WILL ADMIT, UM, RIGHT NOW, UH, MY FACILITY IS ACTUALLY ABOVE A ACCOUNTING, UH, BOOKKEEPING STORE AS WELL AS A COMPUTER STORE.

AND I BRING THEM DONUTS ABOUT TWICE A YEAR.

AND I'VE ALWAYS, I ALWAYS CHECK IN.

I'M LIKE, IF WE'RE BEING TOO LOUD, LET ME KNOW.

AND I'M LITERALLY ABOVE THEM AND THEY HAVE NO COMPLAINTS.

AND I'M SHOCKED, BUT , , I'M LIKE, WOW, IF I COULD BE ON TOP, I'LL, I'LL BE FINE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

, I DON'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

THE, THE LOT THAT'S BETWEEN THIS PROPERTY AND THE STREET, IS THERE ALREADY A RESIDENCE ONLY? THERE IS NOT.

IT IS A BUILDER WHO HAS PURCHASED THE LOT, AND SO HE HAS KIND OF BEEN TALKING, UM, I'VE BEEN WORKING WITH HIS AGENT AS WELL TO BE LIKE, IF THERE'S A FLYBALL

[00:20:01]

UM, BUT RIGHT NOW I THINK HE'S WAITING TO HAVE SOMEBODY INTERESTED IN IT AND THEN BUILDING THE HOME THAT THEY WOULD LIKE DESIGNED ON THE PROPERTY.

BUT YOU'RE, YOU'RE COMMUNICATION WASN'T THERE HAPPY WITH, WITH YOU BEING BACK THERE? THEY DON'T THINK THAT'S GONNA DETRACT FROM THEM.

THEY A LOT.

HE WAS, UM, THE AGENT, REAL ESTATE AGENT WAS AT THE LAST MEETING IN NOVEMBER, AND THEY SAID AS LONG AS THERE WEREN'T DOGS OUTSIDE, THEY DIDN'T HAVE ANY QUALMS. OKAY.

YEAH.

THE DOGS NOT BEING OUTSIDE OR STAYING OVERNIGHT MEANS A LOT.

YEAH.

THAT THEY WERE, THE COMMERCIAL KENNEL MADE THEM ALL FREAK OUT AND THEY WERE LIKE, OH NO.

YEAH.

DOGS BARKING CONSTANTLY.

AND IT RUNS A DAYCARE.

IT'S A TRAINING FACILITY, CORRECT? YES, DEFINITELY NOT A DAYCARE.

OKAY.

THANK YOU.

MM-HMM.

THAT'S IT.

ALL RIGHT.
