• Child-safety of the proposed use: The Commission specifically discussed the child-safety requirements applied to this application. The Planning Commission added the following condition to address the concern of child safety and conduct specific to this project: 12. Parents/guardians/supervising adults will be required to pick-up and drop-off child/children ages 12 years and younger and sign them into and out of the facility. • Music studio parking: The Commission considered the staff analysis and conclusion that the street parking on Quarry Lane could be considered for the studio. Normally, street parking is not considered towards meeting an application's required parking, but is appropriate in this case given its close location to the studio. The Commission also discussed the means to protect the Mr. Studzinski's parking from being used by studio patrons and/or instructors. The Planning Commission stated that Mr. Studzinski's parking must be protected by reasonable means. The Commission added the following condition to address this concern: 10. The instructors shall park on the street. 13. Subject to the 1236 Quarry Lane property owner's approval, the applicant shall pay to have the parking spaces located at 1236 Quarry Lane painted to indicate designated parking. Parking Mr. Studzinski's comments on parking issues at the Planning Commission and in his appeal letter was new information for staff, which motivated staff to revisit our original parking analysis. Staff conducted several site visits between 9:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. to observe the instructors and patrons attending the music studio. From 9:30 a.m. to approximately 3:30 p.m., staff regularly observed one person at the music studio parked in front of the studio or on Quarry Lane. During this time, staff also regularly observed one other vehicle parked in front of the studio. From 4:00 p.m. through 5:00 p.m., staff observed up to two cars parked by patrons in front of the studio and up to three cars parked on Quarry Lane. Staff was unable to verify the ownership of the vehicles parked on Quarry Lane. When visiting Mr. Studzinski in the late afternoon after submitting his appeal, staff was approached by a member of the music studio staff, asked if they were visiting the studio or the machine shop, and advised to re-park in front of the studio or on Quarry Lane if we were there for the studio. While staff's additional site visits did not reveal a parking shortage, staff does acknowledge that current scheduling of lessons may not represent worst case conditions that could transpire under the use permit approved by the Planning Page 5 of 8
