100 square feet of securely fenced run area must be provided
for each dog.
No person shall allow the runs to become a nuisance in
any manner and all dog fertilizer and food scraps must be
cleaned up and removed at least once each day. All barking
or howling dogs shall be kept in an enclosed room with insulated
walls to prevent the travel of sound at an objectionable level
from the kennel building.
No kennel which contains or is designed to contain more
than twenty (20) dogs shall be established when any part of
the kennel buildings or runs is closer than five hundred feet
(500') to any building used for human habitation.
No kennel which contains or is designed to contain at
least four (4) but not more than nineteen (19) dogs shall be
established if any part of the kennel buildings or runs is

for human habitation.

closer than two hundred feet (200') to any building used for
human habitation.
The development and occupation of buildings for human
habitation within the distances prescribed above by others
than the kennel owner or operator or grantees, directly or
indirectly, from or through the kennel owner or operator
following the proper establishment of kennels, shall not
render the maintenance of such pre-existing kennels unlawful
by reason of the diminished separation of the kennel use and
the use of buildings for human habitation.
The residence of the kennel operator or owner shall not
be deemed a building used for human habitation within the
language of this Section.
SECTION 2: That this Ordinance shall take effect thirty
days from and after the date of its adoption.
