In January 2019, Mr. Glen Dawson, on behalf of the Art of Problem Solving (AoPS) Academy, requested to operate a tutoring facility at 5200 Franklin Drive, Suite 110. As the existing PUD approvals did not include tutoring facilities either as a permitted or conditionally permitted use, a PUD minor modification (PUD-80-16-17M) was processed for the subject site to: (1) allow tutoring facilities with no more than 20 students in the facility at one time subject to a Minor Conditional Use Permit; and (2) allow tutoring facilities with more than 20 students in the facility at one time subject to a Conditional Use Permit. Notices of the proposed PUD minor modification were sent to property owners and tenants located within 1,000-foot radius of the project site. No comments were received. On February 26, 2019, the Zoning Administrator approved the requested PUD minor modification. A copy of the approval is attached as Exhibit C. Following the approval of the PUD minor modification, the conditional use permit to operate AoPS, a tutoring facility with a maximum of 72 students on premises at one time, is now before the Planning Commission for consideration.

The subject building is approximately 33,800 square feet in area and currently has two office-use tenants (Extreme Network in Suite 100 and Teichert in Suite 115). The proposed AoPS would occupy Suite 110, located in the southwest quadrant of the building (See Figure 2). Surrounding uses consist mainly of office uses. Primary access to the site is provided by two driveways, one from each street. The project site does not share drive aisles or parking with the adjoining parcels.
