THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED. Rimma Radayeva, Radayeva Music Studio, stated that she pertormed administrative work in the studio during weekday mornings and that there were no students in the facility at that time. She added that weekends were flexible with classes starting between 10:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. She noted that she had placed a sign on her door instructing her patrons not to park on the spaces in front of 1236 Quarry Lane and that she believed the owner at 1236 Quarry Lane was satisfied with the sign. She indicated that she was amenable to adding a condition in her policy for students regarding parking restrictions. Chris Studzinski, owner of 1236 Quarry Lane, expressed his objection to having non-industrial uses in the business park. He noted that there is a stucco business and roofing company with large trucks next door to the piano studio and that he was concerned about the children's safety playing in the area. He stated that the studio has expanded, and children wait for their parents outside to pick them up. He added that he has had parking and loitering problems for many years and described a situation where a child threw tanbark at his windows while a parent was standing by. He noted that five teachers at one time would be using five parking spaces, and five students would require an additional five spaces. He acknowledged the conditions regarding parking but doubted they could be enforced. He indicated that while he agreed music instruction is great, he was opposed to the expansion because he did not believe an industrial park was a good location for the facility. He suggested that the business relocate to a more appropriate location such as at the Vintage Hills Shopping Center where he believed there was already a dance studio and where the students can wait for the parents in Tawny Park across the street. He noted that the property association which supports the studio is not the business park association but the tenant's building association. THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED. Commissioner Fox expressed her reservations about the operation and questioned some of the use permits approved by the Commission in industrial areas. She noted that the first businesses approved in industrial areas were fairly benign and did not present a problem until Pump-It-Up came in. She indicated that she could not support the application because of impacts to light industrial/manufacturing districts and that she would prefer to see the studio locate in a retail zone or commercial district Downtown or similar locations. Chair Pearce inquired what the recourse of the adjacent property owner would be if conditions were added but not followed by the applicant. Ms. Decker replied that as with all other approvals, this would be a Code Enforcement matter. Commissioner O'Connor inquired if there have been complaints received from others in the business park. Ms. Decker replied that none had been received. EXCERPTS: PL,vNNING CGMMISSION MINUTES, rebruary 25, 2009 Page 2 of 7
