Document Description
The applicant is requesting approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to permit a previously existing unpermitted private equestrian facility for up to 40 horses on a Rural Residential parcel. The facility is a registered nonprofit for equine education and therapy sessions for at risk youth and will be operated by the landowners and 1-6 volunteers/employees and will only be available for their private invited clients or guests, and not open to the general public. The facility proposes up to four lessons per day in husbandry, training, preparation for off-site riding, and roping clinics for at-risk youth. Approximately two to five teenaged clients will be on site daily, with adult volunteers/employees acting as chaperones. The applicant is also proposing to hold up to three birthday parties per year for up to 25 people. The horses are kept in paddocks with moveable fencing for periodic rotations. No development is proposed at this time.
