He also explained that the kennel people would like to have the entire ordinance revised and that his office is presently contemplating a comprehensive revision of all kennel provisions, since the present Code provisions are inadequate that the ordinance now being considered would also be subject to revision at that time; that it is an interim measure at this time to allow the Flomar's Kennels to remain in operation~ The City Attorney further stated that he had also talked with Mr~ Morgan, applicant for Variance Application 69-86, and that he had indicated that he proposed to con- struct covered carports having rafters along the top which will join the top of the wall on the property line adjacent to the kennels; and that the wall would have a height of 8 1/2 feet and would be either stucco or cement block wall, The Mayor recognized Robert Harr, who requested Council reconsider its action taken to uphold the Planning Commission's decision in granting Variance Application 69-86 to Marshall Morgan for construction of apartments adjacent to the kennels. He stated that the 8 1/2 foot wall height ,~vould not be a high enough barrier to alleviate the noise from the apartments which would excite the dogs, and the dogs' barking would bother the tenants.
