past year-and-a-half to make staff understand how their system works to make the Park a safe place for these businesses to operate. Commissioner Olson noted that Mr. Stone made reference in his presentation to some businesses in the Park that cater to children, such as piano and dance lessons. He asked Mr. Stone if VBP has instituted proceedings relative to moving these businesses out of the Park. Mr. Stone replied that they are sitting in a predicament as these businesses are in and they cannot just require them to move out. He noted that what they plan to do is once these tenants leave, they will not allow them to be replaced with child-based businesses. He added that the Jazz N Taps school has ran-out Aloha Cabinetry because of noise coming out of their building and that they have also lost an industrial business over a child-based business. Commissioner Olson commented that he presumed these businesses were given CC&Rs which he assumed were in place when these businesses came in. Mr. Stone replied that they had a conditional use, and the past President and Boards had made the adjustments. He stated that it is tough for the present Board to allow all child-based businesses to come in because one is already in, and keep making the same mistake. He noted that the Board is trying to clean up this Park to make it safe for people running light industrial businesses to operate inside the Park. He added that their main concern is the safety of the children. Commissioner Pearce stated that she recalls approving some child based uses in VBP and expressed concern about what Mr. Stone has mentioned about children running through the parking lot or not being dropped off properly because the Commission has instituted many conditions on these businesses to mitigate some of the safety concerns. She asked Mr. Stone if there have been instances of these problems that the Board has br because the Commission has not been informed about them. Mr. Stone replied that he did not know the Board was supposed to report these incidents to the City. He noted that an incident was reported on Tuesday about a gym business in the Park where parents were dropping off children on the other side of the parking lot and having them run through other parking lots and across garden medians. He stated that he would talk to Cyndi Ladd, Director of the property management for VBP and have her send a memo to the City each time this issue comes up so the Commission will be kept informed. commented that he is a member of four associations, two of which he is the President. He noted that it is fairly easy, if the Association does not wish to rewrite its C from the CC&Rs any use or paragraph by a simple majority vote of the membership, PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, June 8, 2011 Page 12 of 22
