Lanl!:ual!:e. and Occupational Therapv - Speech Therapv Center Application for a conditional use permit to operate a speech therapy center in an existing building located at 6654 Koll Center Parkway. Zoning for the property is PUD - I/C-O (planned Unit Development - Industrial/Commercial-Office) District. ,,-. Mr. Iserson presented the staff report. He described the project as a diagnostic and therapeutic center for speech, language, voice, and movement disorders which would occupy two suites totaling approximately 2,700 square feet in the Bernal Plaza of the Bernal Corporate Park. He noted that the center would be working primarily with children and would have up to six staff members during business hours. He stated that three group sessions per day would be held from Monday through Thursday, with a total of 16 people in the facility at anyone time; Fridays would be a catch-up day, with a maximum occupancy of 11 individuals. He added that the children would be dropped off and picked up for their sessions, and there would be a 30-minute break in between sessions to alleviate congestion between group sessions. Mr. Iserson indicated that since the land use in the Bernal Plaza does not permit individual and group therapy, a minor modification to the PUD is being processed by staff in conjunction with this use permit application to conditionally allow such use. He advised that the approval of the minor modification is subject to the Planning Commission's approval of the use permit. ~ Mr. Iserson stated that staff looked into two potential impacts: parking and noise. He pointed out that the Bernal Plaza has more parking spaces than the Code requires and that in the worst-case scenario based on the number of people in the facility at any given time, there would still be a surplus of parking spaces. He added that the applicant followed through on staff's suggestion to request the property owner to designate a few spaces for drop-off and pick-up to PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES November 13, 2002 Page 2
