All license renewals shall be processed in the same manner as the original application except that a written statement from the Pierce County Planning and Public Works Department, Pierce County Fire Prevention Bureau, and the Tacoma-Pierce County Health Department, as required in PCC 5.24.040 B.6. and 8., will not be required. License renewals shall require the applicant to prove that the facility is still used for the same category of kennel activity (commercial kennel or cattery, foster shelter/kennel/cattery, hobby kennel, grooming parlor, private kennel/cattery, short-term boarding facility, or pet shop). Proof may be in the form of a business license, a bona fide membership in a purebred animal club, or other such evidence acceptable to the Pierce County Auditor.
