<br />. <br /> <br />Resolution 521-97 <br />CUP for Children's Home Society <br />August 6, 1997 <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />c. Not less than forty (40) square feet of outside play space per child be <br />provided and that such space be suitably fenced and/or screened in <br />accordance with conditions as specified by the City Council. <br /> <br />The applicant is proposing a fenced tot lot on the north side of the Community Center <br />building. There is sufficient room at this location to accommodate a tot lot meeting the <br />requirement for 40 square feet per child with the maximum number of children permitted <br />under this permit at 98 children. A condition has been included that requires a tot lot be in <br />place meeting the required space ratio during the life of the permit. In addition, a <br />condition has been included to address the temporary use of the playground in City Hall <br />Park for the first year of operation until site grading for the community center is <br />completed. <br /> <br />d. Adequate off-street parking and access is provided in compliance with <br />Chapter 1121 of this Title. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />The Mounds View Zoning Code includes a parking requirement for day schools at one <br />space for each child, plus 1 additional space for each classroom. An analysis of parking <br />requirements has been included on the site plan for the Mounds View Community Center, <br />where the Children's Home Society day care center will be located. This analysis shows <br />20 spaces for the day care center. The number is consistent with the parking ratio <br />required. (98 children/7 children per space = 14; 1 space per classroom = 6 spaces; total <br />required = 20 spaces). The infant, toddler and transition room have been counted as <br />classrooms. <br /> <br />e. Adequate off-street loading and service entrances are provided in compliance <br />with Chapter 1122 of this Title. <br /> <br />Chapter 1122 includes a schedule of off-street loading requirements based on the type of <br />use proposed. Day care centers are not included as a use requiring loading berths, and <br />therefore no requirement applies to this proposal. <br /> <br />f. The site and related parking and service entrances shall be served by an <br />arterial or collector street of sufficient capacity to accommodate the traffic <br />which will be generated. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />The Mounds View Zoning Code does not indicate what measure shall be used to <br />determine if a street providing access to a day care center is a collector or arterial street. <br />Given the activity levels associated with City Hall and the former Bel Rae Ballroom, the <br />activity levels expected at the Mounds View Community Center, and the anticipated <br />connection of Edge wood Drive to a four-way, signalized intersection with Highway 10, it <br />
