Vallejo resident asks board for help with long permit process, fencing and care for Carolina dogs

During public comment, Susan Anthony of Vallejo described breeding and exhibiting Carolina dogs and said she had worked for years on a permitting process for her 2.5‑acre property after cleaning up an illegal dump. Anthony said fencing failures and prior local code enforcement issues have threatened her animals and asked the board for help to avoid losing the dogs and to assist with her long‑running permit process.

Chair Brown and staff acknowledged the comment; no formal action was taken at the meeting. Anthony spoke for her allotted three minutes and said she had stewarded the dogs since 1999 and that the property improvements and permitting effort had taken approximately eight years.
