<br />Ms. Decker noted that it had been an oversight to not include them in the conditions and that <br />they could be added. <br /> <br />In response to an inquiry by Commissioner Pearce regarding use of the common facilities, <br />Ms. Nerland advised that State law specifically states that the HOA may not prohibit large family <br />daycare uses. There was also language about liability insurance. There was no specific <br />reference in the State law with respect to use and regulations ofthe facilities. If the HOA <br />believes it has the legal authority to limit those or the number of guests a resident may bring to <br />the facilities, they may explore that option. She noted that was out of the City's purview. <br /> <br />Commissioner Arkin did not believe that the 60-70 decibel limit would be exceeded and added <br />that the applicant indicated that the daycare would have infants and preschool children. <br /> <br />Commissioner Fox moved to make the required conditional use permit findings as listed in <br />the staff report and to approve PDUP-8, subject to the conditions of approval listed in <br />Exhibit B as recommended by staff, with the following modifications that parents dropping <br />their children off at the day care must turn their car engines off and not blow their horns <br />and that the word "prohibited" be replaced by the word "discouraged" with respect to <br />clients using the curb for parking. <br /> <br />Chairperson Maas requested an amendmeut that staff review the daycare operation <br />45 days after the use permit approval. <br /> <br />Commissioner Fox accepted the amendment. <br />Chairperson Maas seconded the motion. <br /> <br />Commissioner Roberts requested some information on issues surrounding backing out of the <br />driveway. <br /> <br />Commissioner Arkin noted that he did not support the motion as stated. He noted that this was a <br />high-density neighborhood and believed that most drivers would make U-turns rather than drive <br />through the entire neighborhood loop. He believed this was an inappropriate use for this <br />neighborhood. <br /> <br />Chairperson Maas expressed concern regarding private streets and enforcement oflaw within <br />such a development. She suggested continuing this item in order to get more information about <br />that issue. <br /> <br />Ms. Nerland noted that City generally does not enforce traffic violations on private streets; <br />however, these violations could be enforced if they violate the conditions of the use permit. <br /> <br />Commissioner Arkin expressed concern that this use would be allowable in perpetuity on this <br />high-density neighborhood. <br /> <br />Ms. Decker noted that the conditions must be met in order for the use to be continued. <br /> <br />Commissioner Arkin noted that he had rarely, if ever, seen a conditional use permit revoked. <br />Ms. Decker noted that it was easier to grant a conditional use permit than revoke it. <br /> <br />EXCERPTS: PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES, July 13,2005 <br /> <br />Page 5 of6 <br />
