a veterinary office, animal rescue and retail space at 3747 Lakeshore Road (Zoned M-3)

Kathleen Moriarty, attorney with Attea & Attea located at 11 Main Street in Hamburg, spoke on
this variance. Moriarty stated that 10 Lives Club is directly adjacent to 3747 Lakeshore Rd. This
building has been for sale for a number of years. 10 Lives Club has agreed to purchase this
building as long as these approvals go through. They do not intend to do any parking lot work or
anything to the outside. The second floor will be used for additional cat shelters. The first floor
will be used for retail and a cat café. She stated that a cat café is a coffee shop where cats are
freely walking around for people to enjoy and hopefully adopt. They do not plan on having a
food establishment. The main goal is to raise funds.
