Written Narrative <br />The facility will be located at 6654 Owens Drive and will provide high-quality STEM educational <br />and recreational services to children in grades K-12. As a licensed partner of internationally <br />famed MagiKid Robotics Lab, KidsRobotics Inc, a California corporation d.b.a. Magikid Tri-Valley, <br />will provides a one-stop STEM education center connecting our community with the cutting <br />edge of robotics technology. We will provide courses in engineering, AI programming, <br />humanoid robots, drones, web design and game development. <br />The proposed facility is in Pleasanton Business Park that currently has similar tutoring facilities <br />throughout the park that operate successfully and harmoniously. The facility has six rooms that <br />will be used as classrooms in addition to a large area that can accommodate a variety of classes <br />and activities to meet the needs of children of all ages. <br />Planned Hours of Operation: <br />During the school semesters, each learning session is designed for no more than 1.5 hours per <br />student per day. The facility will be open Monday through Friday from 3:00pm to 7:00pm and <br />on weekends from 9:00am to 3:00pm. These hours complement neighboring Montday to <br />Friday 9 to 5 business offices with very little overlap. <br />During winter and summer breaks, we plan to hold camps for extended study. Students are <br />expected to stay either half a day (9am-12pm or 12pm -3 pm) or a full day (9am to 3pm). <br />Number of Employees <br />The facility will have a staff of one manager, up to six instructors during summer peak months <br />and one assistant when needed, for a total of eight employees. <br />Number of students <br />With six classrooms and 4-5 students each classroom at full capacity we could accommodate 24 <br />students at any one time. It would be most likely less than 20 students at one time on average. <br />During winter or summer breaks, the maximum number of students in the facility would be no <br />more than 40 students at any one time. <br />Impacts to Parking <br />Many of our students will be dropped off by parents, who will likely not wait for their students, <br />but will run errands in the area and return after class is complete. There is ample parking <br />around the building, and our operating hours have minimal overlap with general office hours of <br />neighboring businesses. There is sufficient parking to accommodate the staff and parents <br />dropping off and picking up students from the tutoring.
