RE: Conndra Steeves Daycare Center at 1258 E. Cougar Creek Dr.
After further discussion with Coondra Steeves regarding concerns for the proposed
preschoo~ we accept the preschool on Cougar Creek. She bas promised the following,
which make the terms acceptable.
. No signs to indicate that the house is a schooL
. No other indication that it's a school from the ftont
. Car pools to drop off and pick up cbildren to hold traffic down.
. Cars will use the driveway only for dropping off and piclång up.
. Parents will have instructions to not park on the street and not 10 make U turns.
. School hours will be morning and afternoon.
. No one will live in the house.
. The home will be equipped with a security alarm system.
. The home doesn't get rented when school season is not in session.
. Conndra Steeves is submitting the request for a lower speed limit on Cougar
Creek. She mentioned that there were several residents who share this concern.
Also in consideration of the deplorable conditions of the group home located next door,
it's our opinion that the home at 1258 E. Cougar Creek is not saleable. Given the
alternatives of rental property or a substantially discounted price, the preschool is
probably the best solution for this property.
Our concern also remains fur high traffic volume and excessive speed on Cougar Creek
Drive. We support Conndra Steeves desire and residents on this street who are requesting
the city of Meridian to lower the speed limit.
