<br />Proposal for Special Conditional Use Pennit <br /> <br />Allan and Shelly Rankin are submitting this proposal request for the granting of a Special <br />Conditional Use pennit. This is to advise that the barns and land located at 11006 North <br />Avenue P. are designated for FFA, 4-H, and state wide projects and that the barns are <br />kept clean. The facilities provide housing for livestock projects which are not done for <br />commercial use. Proceeds that are earned go to support scholarship funds and to pay fO,r <br />feed and other livestock projects. We also allow a few other La Porte FFA students to <br />house their animals at our facility due to La Porte not having an agricultural facility to <br />house livestock projects. These projects are educational projects in which lifelong skills <br />are learned and help to build good character and moral traits. The projects are shown all <br />over Texas. They are shown at our local livestock show as well as at Harris County and at <br />the major stock shows across Texas. The major shows being: West Texas State Fair <br />(Sept. 8- Sept. 16,2006), Fort Worth Livestock Show (Jan. 12 - Feb. 4, 2007), San <br />Antonio Livestock Show (Feb. 2 - Feb 18,2007), San Angelo Livestock Show (Feb. 15- <br />Feb 25, 2007), Houston Livestock Show (Feb. 27 - March 18,2007), and the Star of <br />Texas (March 9 - March 24, 2007). During preparing for the major shows, these projects <br />are also shown on the state level through the Texas Junior Livestock Association. The <br />Texas Junior Livestock Association is an association that provides beneficial services for <br />its members to enhance and encourage junior livestock ownership and participation. This <br />association also helps to develop leadership in young people and provides knowledge <br />through educational programs, material and curriculum that position it as a leading <br />resource organization in the junior livestock industry. <br /> <br />We ask that you grant this Special Conditional Use pennit in order to allow the <br />continuing education in the ownership and care of livestock projects. <br /> <br />~~ <br />Allan Rankin <br />Shelly Rankin <br />/~ - t-tJfe <br />
