Zoning File #1575 <br />August 16, 1990 <br />Page 2 of 3 <br />As already noted in an earlier review involving a <br />conditional use permit for a pre-school use (Trinity Pre-school), <br />the State licensing will not require an outdoor play area as <br />classes will not extend beyond three hours. This specific <br />property is isolated and several feet from a public roadway. The <br />lot is located within an established rural, 2 acre, residential <br />neighborhood. It may be appropriate that applicant provide a <br />fenced or secured area for play so as not to impact the existing <br />residential neighborhood. This request may not be so much for <br />safety, although this certainly is an issue for the applicant, <br />but rather for the protection/preservation of the rural <br />residential neighborhood. It should also be noted that the <br />City has not received negative comments from the neighbors <br />notified of this public hearing. <br />As the total number of participants in the pre-school <br />program is under 28, there is no need to address the needs for a <br />fire suppression system. Applicant should be advised that if the <br />pre-school program exceeds the total 28 level, that a fire <br />suppression system will be required. In fact any increases or <br />changes in hours of pre-school/kindergarten proposed will require <br />a new conditional use permit. For example, if classes were to be <br />expanded beyond 3 hours or if student and teacher enrollment were <br />to expand beyond the 28 participant level. <br />Options of Action - <br />Denial. If denied, please refer to the necessary findings <br />in the conditional use permit sections of your code. <br />Approval. If approved, the following recommendation with <br />findings and conditions may be considered: <br />To grant approval of a conditional use permit for the <br />Waldorf Pre-school/Kindergarten to be located at 1111 Tamarack <br />Drive for applicant, Judson Dayton, finding all pertinent <br />sections of the code have been satisfied by the applicant. Such <br />approval is subject to the following conditions: <br />1. Prior to opening: <br />A) The Orono Building Inspector shall review the <br />facility to determine need for interior signage for <br />"fire exits" in cases of emergencies. The Building <br />Inspector shall evaluate the building to determine if <br />there is a need for any other improvement prior to use <br />by young children.
