MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION May 3, 1990 Hennessey reported that she has operated the day care center at her home since September of 1989. Jerry Carle, 130 Yorkton Ridge, reported that he was opposed to the conditional use permit. Carle submitted letters from two other property owners in the area who also oppose the request. Carle stated that he was opposed because of traffic concerns. Jim Leese, 110 Yorkton Ridge, pointed out that the street is a cul -de -sac, and the reason most people moved onto this cul -de -sac street is to get away from noise and traffic. Leese stated that he was concerned about the hours of operation of the day care. Leese requested that the Planning Commission table action on the matter for one month to allow the neighbors to get some more information on the request as well as talk to the City's Building Inspector regarding their concerns with the center and what procedures most be followed so that these concerns will be addressed. Leese reported that the concerns he has deal with the speeding up and down the street by parents using the day care center, and the parking of these parents on the cul -de -sac and blocking mailboxes. Leese pointed out that there are a lot of children who live on the street and he was concerned about safety. Hennessey stated that she does not have control over how people drive up and down the street. Leese felt it was Hennessey's responsibility to talk to the parents using the center about how they drive up and down the street. Costa asked for numbers of children at the center. Hennessey replied that she currently has 12 children at the center and she wants to expand to 14. It was pointed out that 5 of the children are Hennessey's, and they count in the numbers allowed at the center. Costa asked if the children were confined to the house. Page 2
