MEETING OPEN FOR ANY MEMBER OF THE AUDIENCE TO ADDRESS THE PLANNING COMMISSION No one addressed the Commission. REVISIONS AND OMISSIONS TO THE AGENDA Mr. Harris stated that there are no revisions or omissions. MATTERS INITIATED BY THE COMMISSION MEMBERS Commissioner Lindsey stated he would abstain from considering case UP-80-9, Item 6(a) inasmuch as his child attends the daycare center of the Tyrrells. UP-80-9, Bette Ann Tyrrell Application of Bette Ann Tyrrell for a conditional use permit which would allow a daycare center to be operated at her residence which is located at 1776 Harvest Road. The property is zoned R-1-6500 (Single-Family Residential) District. Mr. Harris explained the staff report and recommendation of approval. The public hearing was opened. John Garvan, attorney representing the applicant spoke. He addressed condition #7 and requested that it be eliminated in view of the fact that it was determined earlier by the Board of Adjustment that the garage is a legal, non-conforming use. Concerning the hours in condition #5, he stated the hours were okay but would like it understood that from time to time there are exceptions when a person gets put in an emergency situation and cannot be there on time. Commissioner Wilson stated emergencies are recognized. Mr. Garvan stated that Mrs. Tyrrell has babysat since 1966 and she has taken care of 12 children during this time and that they are not doing anything new which would subsequently change the environment or add to traffic conditions. He stated the State recently has been made aware of babysitting within the City and is requiring them to be properly licensed. He made reference to Ordinance No. 309 which appeared to allow this use as an incidential home occupation. Mr. Harris asked for clarification of the statement made. Mr. Garvan clarified the statement and Mr. Harris explained that the use permit replaces the home occupation permit, therefore, a separate home occupation permit is not required. Mr. Garvan then asked for all people in the audience in favor of the project to stand. Many people stood in support of the application. Mr. Garvan then presented a petition with 12 signatures which reads as follows: "We, the undersigned homeowners at the addresses listed below, do hereby wish to advise the Planning Commission that each of us has no objection to a continuation of Mrs. Tyrrell's childcare services, including her use of a converted garage for the purpose of a playroom. Such childcare services have not been offensive to us in the past and, if continued in the same manner, should not be objectionable to us in the future." Mr. Garvan presented a plot map whereon each petitioner's name was written -2- .. ......_..,. ..~ .. .... ..... .. .. .... ~ _..._... .......r.... ... ...- ... ... ...
