Kathleen Lawrence, 889 North Fillmore, was sworn by the City Attorney. Lawrence: My request for conditional use is for a day care for up to 12 children which is a group home day care. I did submit proposed fence, due to weather our yard has not been fine graded so we are waiting for that to get done so we can get the fence up. Shearer: Which lot in the subdivision is yours? Lawrence: Lot 6, Block 5 Hepper: Would the garage be part of the day care? Lawrence: No Crookston: Do you have a fence now or will you have one? Lawrence: I do not have a fence now, as soon as the yard, as soon as we are able to fine grade we will put the fence up. Crookston: So you are just newly moved into the home? Lawrence: Yes, we moved in December 5th. MacCoy: What kind of fence? Lawrence: What kind of fence, we are going to put a six foot four by four by six wooden fence with a gate. Hopefully self locking. (Inaudible) Crookston: What are your hours going to be? Lawrence: I would like to have seven in the morning to six at night. Crookston: And the age of the children that you are going to accept? 8 8 Meridian Planning & Zoning Commission February 13, 1996 Page 49 Lawrence: I want to accept preschool age which is 3, 4 and 5. I do not want to limit it to that but that is my preference. If I am starving I will take other ages. Johnson: Have you had an opportunity to review the comments from Bruce Freckleton, the City Engineer, that is a February 8 letter to you. Lawrence: Yes I have, I didn't know who it was from, I didn't see who it was from. It is the one about the fence type and height. Johnson: No, there are four items it is February 8 is the date of the letter, it is on City letterhead. It looks like this. Lawrence: I tried calling him, I got these mailed to me on Monday and I tried calling him this afternoon and he never got back with me. Outside lighting there will be no other light other than what is allowed by the covenants and restrictions, there will be no sign. Off street parking, as you can see I am kind of on the corner there and the drive way will be open it is a two car driveway. Number four, sanitary sewer and water to this facility will be via existing service lines and that is through what is already there. . Johnson: What he is saying in the last comment is there is a possibility that the water usage could increase your assessments for water and to make you aware of that. Lawrence: I don't have any problem with that. I did sign that I would pay extra sewer or water in my application. Johnson: Does anyone else have any questions of the applicant? Hepper: Probably the same question that Greg had on the last one. Are you aware of what the zoning is on the other side of the fence from the back of your property? Lawrence: Light industrial, that whole area is light industrial and I don't know why the whole subdivision is there it is light industrial. I thought I would just have to get the regular day care license and I wouldn't have to do a conditional use permit. Hepper: You are aware that is light industrial and there could be manufacturing and stuff going on right on the other side of your fence? Lawrence: Yes I am. Hepper: Twenty four hours a day type possibility. I just want to make you aware of what is there so you don't come back some day. 8 8 Meridian Planning & Zoning Commission February 13, 1996 Page 50 Lawrence: I don't see that as a problem as far as the day care goes as far as my residence goes maybe you might see me here when they are applying for theirs. Hepper: As long as you are aware. That is alii have. Johnson: Anyone else? Thank you, does anyone else want to address the Commission on this application? ---- -l::awr:er)Ç8_: I have one more question, as far as the hours go, like she says Micron, I don't know what kind of people I will be taking in, are they flexible with that. Is that flexible with that or is that set in stone how does that work? Johnson: We ask that question really in consideration of your neighbors. Lawrence: That would be my preference and consideration myself. Johnson: Your answer was fine it was, I would like it to be, in other words it wasn't this is what they are. I think that is fine. Does anyone have any reflection on that? Lawrence: Thank you Johnson: Is there anyone else? I will close the public hearing at this time. This requires findings of fact and conclusions of law. Shearer: Mr. Chairman, I move we have the Attorney prepare findings of fact and conclusions of law for this project. MacCoy: Second Johnson: Moved and seconded to have the City Attorney prepare the findings of fact and conclusions of law, all those in favor? Opposed?
