Board OKs Good Clean Dog grooming shop with drive-up service at Hanley Industrial Court

Brentwood’s Board of Aldermen on July 21 approved a conditional-use permit and site-development plan allowing Good Clean Dog to operate a dog-grooming business with a drive-up service at 1234 Hanley Industrial Court in the city’s light-industrial (LI) district (Bill 65-64). Planning and Zoning recommended approval by an 8-0 vote.

Applicant Jen Stewart, director of operations for the business, told the board the facility will offer grooming services; dogs will remain inside the building and there is no plan for outdoor play yards, boarding or full-day daycare. The drive-up option is a convenience feature that allows owners to stay in their cars while staff receive and return animals; Stewart said the business expects daily vehicle volumes in the low hundreds (she estimated roughly 100 vehicles per day) and that grooming-only operations limit sustained parking impacts.

Staff confirmed the site is on LI zoning where pet services and grooming are a conditional use; the plan before the board included parking, interior layout and drainage/cleaning procedures for indoor animal areas. Alderwoman Goad and others asked about noise and odor management; Stewart said all wash/play areas will be indoors with floor drains and routine cleaning and that any barking would occur inside the building.

The board approved a same-night second reading and then perfected the ordinance; roll-call votes were recorded in favor and Bill 65-64 will become an ordinance. Staff noted the applicant will return with a separate signage package once the CUP is in place.
