planning staff's understanding that Club Sport is adhering to the time limit of parents <br />or of having their children on site forfour hours or less per week when they are not <br />there. <br />Ms. Seto replied that staff reviewed the exemption letter and sees Conditions 1 <br />and 2 as being read separately. She indicated that obviously, the discussion about <br />a camp would necessarily have the parents away from the children for the hours that <br />have been described. She added that the Commission has the option, after <br />considering this particular application, to direct staff to work with Club Sport to seek <br />clarification about its status with regard to this letter. She noted that at this point, <br />staff sees it as being quite unrelated to the current proposal. <br />Commissioner Fox stated that with respect to the issue of whether or not Club Sport <br />is a childcare facility with respect to the time limit of four hours or less per week <br />when parents are not on site, Club Sport's website says that "it provides child care <br />per day and children from 6 weeks to 12 years old can receive three hours of child <br />care per day." She noted that the three hours per day plus the four hours or less per <br />week enable parents to leave their children at Club Sportfor a total of 21 hours per <br />week. <br />Chair Pearce suggested that the Commissioners limittheir inquiries at this point to <br />clarifying questions. <br />Commissioner Blank stated that he believed the text is difficult to read without <br />reading the entire context: "All Club Sport Pleasanton family members receive three <br />hours of complimentary child care per day, which allows parents plenty of time to <br />work out, enjoy lunch, or receive spa treatment or anything else we have to offer." <br />He noted that this implies that the parents are on-site. <br />Ms. Seto stated that Club Sport regulations for the Kids Camp does require that the <br />parent stay on site; so to that extent, parents can use those three hours a day <br />provided they are on-site. She added that Condition 2 talks about when parents are <br />not on site. She noted that staff does not see those as in conflict with each other. <br />THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED. <br />Commissioner Fox referred to Attachment B of the staff report for the wireless <br />ordinance, distributed earlier, which was adopted in 1998. She noted there was a <br />wireless communication facilities group that was put together as atwo-year <br />committee, which developed a draft ordinance that went through the Planning <br />Commission and City Council. She stated that page 5 of that staff report for the <br />ordinance states that a wireless facility would not be allowed within 300 feet of a <br />residences, public parks, public schools, private schools, childcare centers, or senior <br />care assisted-living facilities. She added that on page 6, the ordinance outlines <br />some of the reasons why this was put in place, with property values being one of the <br />main drivers; and page 7 talks about some of the issues regarding commercial uses <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, February 11, 2009 Page 5 of 13 <br />
