His hours of operation would have been Monday - Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. As a personal service, Mr. Welch would also offer item pickup and delivery. Service supplies included soap, borax and water; no toxic chemicals or acids. Since Mr. Welch would have been dealing with just animal skins (hides), skulls, and antlers, there would have been little or no wastes produced. Mr. Welch had notified the Mission s Health officials of his intentions. Mr. Welch had an evening meeting (on 9/15/09) at his home where several neighbors appeared to ask questions and so the Welch s could explain their CUP intent. Two petitions had been filed: petition against = 16% of mail out radius; petition in favor = 23% of mail out. The P&Z unanimously approved of the conditional use permit as indicated below. Staff Recommendation: Approval subject to: 1) 1 year re-evaluation, 2) acquisition of a business license, and 3) random visits by City (Health) Officials. (NOTE: A sign would have not been permitted). Staff, and P&Z recommended approval. Mayor Salinas asked if there were any comments for or against the CUP request. Wade Welch from 2704 N.

Stewart Rd. spoke in favor of the CUP request and briefly explained how and when he was first introduced to the taxidermy method. He also thanked the council for keeping an open mind when making their decision based on facts regarding the request. Randall De Priest, a family friend from 1523 E. 2 nd St, spoke in favor of the CUP request and briefly explained when his friendship with Tyler Welch and his family started. He described Tyler s character and his moral beliefs. He also expressed that in his beliefs he did not think that Tyler would start or operate a business that would harm or bother any neighbor.

Minutes, 10/12/09 Pg. 4 Rebecca Medrano, from 1611 Solar Dr., spoke in favor of the CUP request. She has lived right behind the Welch s residence for the past two years and has not had any problems with them or with the activities that they have had at their home. She attended their neighborhood meeting were she felt that they were very informative and answered all the questions they had as far as anything negative regarding their plans. Gil Quintanilla, from 1701 Solar Dr., spoke against the CUP request. He explained his reasons and concerns for been against a taxidermy shop behind his back yard. Amongst those concerns were the devaluation of property value, safety, and welfare issues. Dr. Richard Flemming, from 1615 Solar Dr., spoke against the CUP request and expressed his concerns regarding health issues for having a taxidermy shop near a residential neighborhood. He also explained that the transmission of disease depended on how well things were controlled. David de los Santos, from 1707 Solar Dr., spoke against the CUP request and stated that he was against having a taxidermy shop on a residential neighborhood. He stated that if Mr. Welch wanted to start a business he should do so, but in a commercial area. Carlos Garza, from 1607 Solar Dr., spoke in favor of the CUP request and explained how Mr. Welch living in an agriculture zoned area had every right to even place a pig farm and start raising pigs in his property if he wanted to do so. Karen Quintanilla, from 1701 Solar Dr., spoke against the CUP request and pointed out some of the issues that were previously addressed. She mentioned of her awareness of agriculture land in the surrounding area when they first moved into the neighborhood and how she didn t have any problem with that; but there was no business or taxidermy shop and that she did have a problem with. She asked the council to preserve the character of their neighborhood. Sylvia Werneke, from 2611 N. Shary Rd., representing her husband and her mother in law, spoke in favor of the CUP request and briefly described the character of the Welch family of what great and fine people they were and how she believed that they would do nothing to put anyone in danger. She requested the council to give Tyler a chance to start his business. Councilwoman Ramirez mentioned how she had already made up her mind to vote against the CUP request when she read about chemicals and diseases in Dr. Flemming s letter. Then she went to visit the Welch s and explained how impressed she was with the work. She saw the tools, the trophies, and smelled the chemicals and realized there was nothing wrong. Instead she saw a beautiful art work and changed her mind to be in favor of the request. Mayor Pro Tem Olivarez spoke against the CUP request and explained that chemicals weren t his concern. His concern were the residents who bought their land to build their homes not knowing there was going to be a business behind it.
