Commissioner VanScoy questioned if the facility would be a daycare or an educational <br /> institution. <br /> Assistant City Administrator/Economic Development Manager Brama stated the primary focus <br /> would be education. <br /> Commissioner VanScoy reported educational uses were not allowed in COR 1, COR 2, or COR <br /> 3. <br /> Community Development Director Gladhill clarified the business would be licensed as a daycare. <br /> Further discussion ensued regarding the differences between a daycare and an academy. <br /> Commissioner VanScoy asked if a private street with easements could be created to eliminate the <br /> need for a public roadway connection. <br /> Community Development Director Gladhill stated staff could investigate this further. <br /> Commissioner VanScoy appreciated the focused concept of Stone Brook. He stated he would <br /> like to see this facility located within The COR. He anticipated staff would have to negotiate <br /> with Stone Brook on the cost of the property. <br /> Commissioner Nosan expressed concern with dropping the price for the property. She feared <br /> how The COR would be impacted by 100 cars entering and exiting the property several times a <br /> day. She questioned how the remnant property(0.5 acre) would be developed in the future. <br /> Assistant City Administrator/Economic Development Manager Brama discussed how a <br /> standalone development could be completed on the 0.5-acre lot. He explained the Council and <br /> EDA would address the pricing strategies for the property. He discussed how the per square foot <br /> asking prices were established in further detail with the Commission and noted the asking prices <br /> were always up for negotiation. <br /> Chairperson Bauer did not understand why the applicant was requesting to be located in the <br /> center of The COR. He suggested the applicant consider another location in order to assist with <br /> traffic congestion and to avoid the street connection. <br /> Commissioner VanScoy agreed with this recommendation. <br /> Commissioner Surma did not support the academy locating on Site 41 and recommended Site 44 <br /> be pursued further. <br /> Planning Commission/January 5, 2017 <br /> Page 13 of 18 <br />
