Zoning I'ile 1^^1795 March 18. 1993 Page 3 comparist)n study has provided a history of vehicular accidents on adjacent roadways from 1990 through the present. In applicant ’s case, the accident record includes both Highway 12 and County Road 6 as snown i)ii Page 3 of the report. Staff felt it was appropriate to also distinguish the times of dav when the accidents occurred. More accidents occur during the (^7 ^ ^ heavy traffic times of the day between 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m.. the time the day care centers ate in full use. It is interesting to note that Busy Beaver at a ma.ximum student level of 79 has only 12 parking stalls and reported never having any problems with the lack of parking space on the site. In both day cares as with applicant ’s, food service is either provided by bringing bag Imichcs or thinugh outside catering. Comments on Slate Licensing Requirement Review Page 1-A. note that 35 s.f. of useable lloor area is required for each child in addition to one toilet and washbowl per every 15 children. The current fioor plan shows two stalls and two bow'ls. In order to meet State licensing requirements for 60 students, bathroom area would have to be doubled. It is not clear whether separate facilities arc required for adult staff members and visitors to the *>cility. Staff has attempted to approximate the area to be eliminated from floor plan as unuseable for determining the number of students allowed at facility: Total area = 3,000 s.f. Unuseable floor area = 900 s.f.^ Appri'Ximate useable floor area »= 2,100 s.f. (divided by 35 = 60 studeiiLs) Applicant is probably somewhere between a 52 to 60 allowed student based on other space needs that may reduce useable floor ao:a. level Members are encouraged to review the State requirements. Mrs. Walters has advised that she would be happy to respond to any of your questions. Please note this information is provided as information only. It is not the City’s responsibility to either implemeni or administer the licensing code. * Unuseable floor area: 520 s.f. of proposed bathroom, utility and kitchen a .. 120 s.f. for tiffice and approximately 260 s.f. for an expandc*d baihrcxjm area to meet 60 student level. Review of Other Limits on Studcnt/Tcacher Use Level ,\s already noted in tlie earlier review, an apprv>ved sprinkler system must be installed at the time the student teacher ratio exceeds a level of 29. The existing septic system, now that a kitchen/fotxl service use has been eliminated, will serve up to 38 student teacher level. Tte
