Resolution No. PC-2019-06 Page 4 of 4 districts. Since the Ldn metric represents average sound levels over a 24-hour period (with noises between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m. weighted more heavily), normal daytime activities (including children playing outside) would not result in an exceedance of conditionally acceptable noise levels in the General Plan. Thus, noise will not be an issue. E. Fire Code Requirements. Large family daycare homes shall meet all regulations of the state fire marshal adopted as part of the California Administrative Code and relating specifically to large family daycare homes. California Health and Safety Code §13235 states that family day care homes must obtain a fire safety clearance by the local fire enforcing agency. Here, the Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department conducted a pre-inspection and verified compliance as it relates to State law. Thus, there are any issues related to the Fire Code. Section 2: Denies the appeal of Joshua Brysk and upholds the Zoning Administrator's approval of conditional use permit to operate a large family daycare home with a maximum of fourteen (14) children at the existing residence, subject to the conditions shown in Exhibit A, attached hereto and made part of this case by reference. Section 3: This resolution shall become effective 15 days after its passage and adoption unless: (1) appealed prior to that time by any member of the public; or (2) if a City Councilmember wishes to review the item, pursuant to Pleasanton Municipal Code section 18.144.010, he or she must indicate their desire to review within 15 days following the date of approval, or at the next regular meeting of the City Council, whichever is later. If the majority of the City Council agrees to review the item, a further hearing shall be set pursuant to Pleasanton Municipal Code section 18.12.040 and the Council shall consider the item at that time. PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED by the Planning Commission of the City of Pleasanton at a regular meeting help on March 13, 2019, by the following vote: Ayes: Noes: Abstain: Absent: ATTEST: Ellen Clark Nancy Allen Secretary, Planning Commission Chair APPROVED AS TO FORM: Julie Harryman Assistant City Attorney a source or group of sources as measured with a precision sound level meter using the "A" weighting scale, with the meter response function set to "slow." The City's interpretation has been that this standard does not apply to human voices as human voices (including those associated with children's play and normal conversations) are a typical component of residential neighborhoods in Pleasanton. Human voices in typical circumstances also generally do not contribute to the noise environment in a constant and continuous way that would support a Code Enforcement action. While one could imagine an extreme example of a situation where human voices would be considered to violate the Noise Ordinance (e.g., a stadium filled with people adjacent to a residential district, or loud recreational activities in the middle of the night), groups of children playing outside during daytime hours do not generally rise to the level of a violation because this noise resembles that associated with a typical residential household with young occupants. However, the use of mechanized equipment (e.g., musical instruments, amplified speakers), whether a part of a home day care or a single-family residence, could violate the City's noise standards. Such equipment is not proposed as part of this application. Therefore, the proposed Large Family Day Care would not exceed the thresholds in the Noise Ordinance for residential properties. The Noise Element of the General Plan identifies land use compatibility standards for different land uses. For instance, noise levels between 60 and 75 decibels on the day-night equivalent level (Ldn) are considered conditionally acceptable in single-family residential
