I think the Pima County Adjustment Board needs to listen to the experts on this and issue the necessary exemption from paving the parking lot.

The danger of asphalt for the loading of horses and trailors was is a issue for the Saguaro National Park years ago when they proposed an area for people to park and load and unload horses at a paved entranced. They got so many complaints for the horse people that it never was approved. Pima County needs to grant Dr. Hutchinson an exception to paving the driveway.

I hope the Adjustment Board considers the request of concerned public. We love our native vegetation and do not wish it turned into another tarred parking lot.

Keep the horses safe! Sometimes there should be exceptions to the rules.

Absurd. I feel confident that this petition and perhaps a statement from the American Veterinary Medical Assoc will open their eyes. Sometimes it's just a matter of poor application of regulations. There are reasonable exceptions- this is one!

PLEASE! This is a a safety issue for horses and the humans that attend them. Do not require this area to be paved.

it seems common sense should work here. Steel shoes on pavement?

Horses a cement do not mix. Very stupid if zoning tries to make them pave the lot and you are just asking for injury.

Forcing paved parking at an equine veterinaian is an ignorant, jackbooted move.

Asphalt is not safe for horses therefore it should not be placed in a place where horses go for healing.

I agree, no pavement for loading and unloading horses. Particularly at clinics where horses are being treated.

Very dangerous to unload horses on to pavement--this is a burdensome and unnecessary requirement for this rural area!

Please consider not forcing Dr. Hutchison to pave the clinics driveway. Pavement is unsafe for horses.

Consider the use of the parking lot. It is to a vet's office specializing in horses. It is not the parking lot of a food store.
