I know there is a huge demand for childcare and its being <br /> forced into residential neighborhoods; and, churches are being forced into retail/business parks. This is not a benefit to <br /> the community. Here is my story: <br /> For years my family lived in Pleasanton where we raised our children and loved the community. But, when a home <br /> daycare business became our next door neighbor,the traffic and disruption to our peaceful court changed. Parents <br /> blocked our driveway,children on playground equipment were noisy and neighbors became disgruntled. Despite our <br /> pleas to the Planning Commission and the City Council, the daycare which was approved for 12 children, but often had <br /> up to 16 present at one time, continued. For us,the court became unbearable, so we sold our home and moved. <br /> A community needs more than houses. <br /> Carmen Rouquette <br /> 1 <br />
