Mr. Spaude confirmed that there are playgrounds on two sides of the building. He explained that <br />the infant/toddler rooms would go out on their side of the building to those playgrounds while the <br />preschool groups would go out of the building on their side to their age specific playgrounds. He <br />stated that the concept of allowing access from the building to the designated playground also <br />increases safety as they are not walking children around on sidewalks. <br />Commissioner Hunt referenced the mention of moving the eastern playgrounds to the western side. <br />Mr. Spaude replied that was a staff comment but is not something that is feasible for their <br />operations. He stated that they are attempting to place as much buffer between their site and the <br />residential sites in order to screen the playground activity. <br />Commissioner Anderson commented that the neighbors on the east side were very vocal on the <br />other project and asked if those neighbors were notified. <br />City Planner McCann commented that those residents received public hearing notice and noted <br />that the applicant also reached out and worked with those neighbors to resolve their concerns. <br />Motion by Commissioner Anderson, seconded by Commissioner VanScoy, to close the public <br />hearing. <br />A roll call vote was performed: <br />Commissioner Hunt aye <br />Commissioner Anderson aye <br />Commissioner VanScoy aye <br />Commissioner Walker aye <br />Commissioner Bauer aye <br />Acting Chairperson Gengler aye <br />Motion Carried. <br />Acting Chairperson Gengler closed the public hearing closed at 7:35 p.m. <br />Commission Business <br />Motion by Commissioner Anderson, seconded by Commissioner VanScoy, to recommend that <br />City Council adopt Resolution #22-194 Approving a Conditional Use Permit for a Daycare Center <br />at 14725 Ramsey Boulevard NW and Declaring Terms of Permit. <br />Further discussion <br />Commissioner Walker commented the applicant as this is a well thought out plan to buffer from <br />the neighboring properties.
