Please support the San Diego Equestrian Community's movement for a new and reasonable
permitting process for boarding facilities by reading and signing the PETITION:
http://www.petitionvoice.com/we-the-people-want-a-reasonable-petition.html

Located in Valley Center, California, this popular boarding & training facility served residents of San Diego, Orange, and Riverside Counties, as well as out of state owners, with horse boarding, care, and training for all breeds of horses, from April 2003 through November 2009. Zoning for the property is A70-L, which by right (no permit required) may include operating a large or small animal hospital or vet clinic for the public, keeping an unlimited number of occupant-owned horses and donkeys, up to 14 cows and 6 other large animals such as llamas, emus, ostriches, sheep, goats, hogs, alpacas, as well as 25 chickens and/or roosters and 25 peacocks. However, for the property occupants to legally board even ONE horse, the County of San Diego requires a Major Use Permit (MUP). After they had spent six years and over $100,000.00 processing the required MUP to board 25 horses, in 2009 the County increased the TMEC owners' MUP fees by 400% for no apparent reason. The County should not have the right to arbitrarily increase the application fees in the middle of the process. Read the full story at http://www.tapestrymeadows.com/about.html.
