PetsHotel Construction Remodel
Dear Mr.Adams:
PetSmart is planning on making alterations to the above referenced premises. We will be remodeling the interior
of our space and adding a PetSmart PetsHotel to support our pet parents when they have to be away from their
furry friends.
I�ATUF_CDA.Y
The hours of operation will be Monday thru Eridwy 7am to 9pm,Sunday 8am to 6pm.
The lobby is closed on Thanksgiving and Christmas Day. There should be an average of about 12 employees,
alternating schedules from day to night shifts.
At PetSmart PetsHotel, we provide all the comforts of home for dogs and cats,while giving Pet Parents the peace
of mind that their pets are receiving the love and the attention they deserve from our PetCare Specialists,who are
PetSmart Safety-Certified Caregivers. We believe adding a PetsHotel to the community will be beneficial by giving
our Pet Parents the peace of mind that we understand that pets are important members of the family and we are
thankful for the opportunity to care for our pet guests.
PetSmart PetsHotel is dramatically different from a traditional kennel environment that may include unsightly
chain link fences and unruly sounds. PetSmart designed the space to incorporate measures that lessen the impact
of odors, noise and pet waste on our neighbors. We apply state of the art construction practices, such as noise-
reduction materials and advanced waste-elimination systems to accomplish this. There should be no negative
impact for people residing or working with in the same vicinity.
The Pet Hotel will target a community where the community involves Pet Parents. The PetSmart PetsHotel is a
place with everything we'd want for our own pets, so Pet Parents can have peace of mind that their pet is as safe
and healthy as possible when they're away.
Since the Pets Hotel will be constructed in our existing space, it should have very minimal if none at all, impact on
the traffic, property,and existing improvements.
As to my knowledge,the PetSmart location is not located on any hazardous waste and substances site.

PetsHotel Construction Remodel
Dear Mr.Adams:
The operations of the PetsHotel are an indoor facility only and no outdoor uses are allowed for our Pet guests.
The canine guests are walked inside our retail space for exercise including any play time purchased by the pet
parent.
Relief rooms are constructed inside of the hotel space which is designed to reflect an outdoor area for pets that
are trained to relieve themselves on exterior material. Inside our relief room is a toilet for animal waste to be
flushed immediately to prevent any disease or odor.
The PetsHotel only boards dogs and cats at this time.We do not see this changing anytime in the near future.
The PetsHotel will offer Day Camp to our boarded guests and this allows the pet guest to play in the play rooms
multiple times a day,in lieu of staying inside of their kennels and the walks twice a day inside of the store.
The PetsHotel is built with an exterior CMU wall which acts as a sound proof barrier from Co-Tenants and interior
noise heard from the outside of the retail space.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
Kind regards,
