W. 000016
B. The following individuals spoke in opposition of the petition.
Vicki Odell, 1615 Johnson Street, stated she owns vacant lots next to
her house and she doesn'twant increased traffic. A day care will cause
more traffic. She said they have built up this area and it is nice, and
she wants to protect the property values. Ms. Odell further stated she
wants the property all around here to remain residential.
Bertie Gibson, 1520 Johnson, stated she wants to protect the
neighborhood. This change would invite other commercial properties.
Glen Embry, 1410 17th Street N.E., stated he lives across the street
from this property, and it has been residential for years. If you put in
one business, others will follow.
Thelma Clement, 1471 13th Street N.E., stated she has been there for
twenty years, and one business will bring more. She drives a school
bus, so she is up early, and this will create noise and traffic. She asked
what else would follow because this is not a good location for a day
care.
C. The public hearing was declared closed.
In response to Commission questions, Betty Jones stated she doesn't know
how many kids will be there but they currently have three employees and
they're limited to around 8 to 12 kids per employee. Lisa Wright advised the
Commission the codes will require parking and other stringent building
requirements and that maximum occupancy would also be established by
that. Curtis Fendley stated he looked at this, and it is a quiet residential area,
and he feels this use will be bad for rest of the area.
Motion was made by Curtis Fendley, seconded by Bill Harris, to deny the
petition. Motion carried 6-0.
