FROM: Internal Operations Committee ContraCos
DATE: November 7, 1983 @ Count)/
SUBJECT: Proposed Ordinance Relative to Domiciling of Horses
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATIONS:
1 . Direct the Planning Director and Health Services Director to prepare new
development standards which would provide more flexibility in the amount of
territory needed for domiciling horses on residential property which would be
applicable to new developments. It is understood that there are many other
matters of higher priority pending with the Planning Department, and this
recommendation should be considered a relatively low priority.
2. Leave this matter on referral to the Internal Operations Committee.
BACKGROUND:
On November 2, 1982, the Board approved the recommendation of the 1982 Internal.
Operations Committee that the County Planning Commission and Area Planning Commissions
should review and comment on the recommendation of the California State Horsemen's
Association requesting that the County's present requirement that a horse can be
maintained only on property of 40,000 square feet. The 1983 Internal Operations
Committee has met on several occasions on this subject.
We have agreed to recommend that the Board ask the Planning Department to prepare
an ordinance code amendment which would provide greater flexibility in the space
standards for domiciling horses only as it pertains to new developments. Our
Committee is not anxious to reduce the present one-acre requirement on existing
residential property, but is willing to consider any proposal brought to us by the
Horsemen' s Association.
