Professional workshops
Primate Products regularly hosts Primadaption workshops at which animal technicians from
around the world learn about working with monkeys in a laboratory setting (see attached screen shot
from http://www.primateproducts.com/services/panther-tracks-learning-center-ptlc.html). These
training programs are held at the Hendry County property several times each year.
The zoning classification High intensity commercial (C-3), which includes Veterinary offices
and animal hospitals with outside kennels, or General commercial (C-2), which includes
Commercial or trade schools, would be more appropriate than an A-2 or other agriculture zoning
classification for the Primate Products property in Hendry County.
If Primate Products intends to no longer use live animals in research, testing, teaching, or
experimentation, the company should allow its USDA Class R license as a research facility to
expire.
We urge you to investigate these repeated violations of the Hendry County Code of Ordinances and,
if violations are found to have occurred, to impose the maximum penalty. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Nanci Alexander, President
