(UP -354-71) Request for Use Permit for boarding stable at 25720 Altamont Road (Altamont Stables), in accordance with Ordinance No. 179. Continued from July 12, meeting. Staff reviewed this item which bad been continued from the last meeting in an at temp' to get "expert" help in order for the Commission to determine the proper number of horses for a commercial stable. Mr. Fritschle contacted the Moeller's to see if Mr. Moeller would consent to be the "expert" and provide some recommendations. He was out of town and therefore unavailable for contact. Mrs. Moeller, however, indicated that she doubted if he would consider this request, and reiterated the previously expressed sentiments that the type of operation and the operator of a stable has more to do with the number of horses that can be accommodated than the total acreage involved. She stated that each horse should have its own accommoda- tions, which would be a paddock and a shelter, and that the operation should provide for adequate fly control and manure removal. Beyond this, it would be a matter of judgment by the Planning Commission and the City Council to determine what is a reasonable number of horses to be allowed. IM
