The outdoor play area shall be supervised by staff at all times. The outdoor play area shall be occupied by a maximum of six children at any one time and shall only be used for up to two and half hours per day. Children shall be allowed to use the outdoor play area for approximately one hour during the mid-morning and approximately one hour during the afternoon. 3. The applicant shall request all parents/guardians to drive safely, obey traffic laws, and be courteous of the neighborhood when driving or parking. The applicant shall request that all parents/guardians not double park, honk the horn, or park or make u-turns in driveways other than the driveway at 3149 Chardonnay Drive. The applicant shall also notify all parents/guardians that children are not allowed to cross the street by themselves. 4. The applicant shall make the garage available for parking two vehicles at all times, as required by the Pleasanton Municipal Code. During the approved business hours of the large family day care homes (Monday through Friday 7 a.m. to 6 p.m.), all automobiles owned/operated by the applicant or other persons living in the home or employees of the daycare shall be parked in the garage or directly in front of the subject site when the day care home is in operation. During drop-off/pick-up times, the driveway shall be made available for parents/guardians to park. 5. The large family day care home is limited to a maximum of 14 children at any one time. 6. The large family day care homes shall not create noise levels in excess of those allowed in residential property pursuant to Chapter 9.04 of the Pleasanton Municipal Code. 7. The applicant shall obtain all appropriate State licenses for a Large Family Day Care Home and shall maintain those licenses during the entire time the residence is utilized as a large family day care home. 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
