READING/Ed Barry and John Warden I
John Warden presented this Ordinance to the Council and
answered questions regarding the amendment of the chilf
care provisions of the City's zoning ordinance. The
Commission had attempted to develop provisions that
complement rather than duplicate St .:e regulation
While State regulations focus on the safety issues, the
City's regulations concern mainly land use issues. The
proposed regulations define three types of child care -
facilities, set operational standards, and establish site

DISCUSSION FOLLOWED and questions from the Council
included the following: Maximum numberof children
a home care situation (business day, including after�
school care) licensing of homes with three (3) or fewer
children to be required with the State and the City

RS zoned property, 600 foot requirement from active vs.
licensed only day care facility, established that this
situation could be evaluated by the Commission and a
variance granted to this rule (600 foot requirement) upon
finding that such exceptions do not contribute to the
proliferation of child care facilities within a

Plans fors _•.• 4t Improvements
Generally Follow Alignment B/Ed Barry and Hildy Kingm]
DISCUSSION FOLLOWED with presentation and questions
answered by Hildy Kingma. Concerns of the Council
included the fallowing: Taking as little as possible
right®of®way off the north side of Leander Road because
those properties are so narrow and it would have a much
larger relative impact on those properties because of
their narrow width® minimize the impact on the disruption
to the Highland Park neighborhood, where there are homes
that front on Highland Drive, and, finally, there needs
to be a total of 100 feet of right of way so that the
Highway Department is able to make the improvements that
they are planning to make. The City currently has 80
feet and need an additional 20 feet along that stretch
of Leander Road from IH35 to Austin Avenue. In order to
achieve the goals outlined and meet the Highway
Departments engineering criteria, there are several
adjustments to the current alignment of Leander Road that
may have to be made and are outlined in this Resolution.
DISCUSSION CONTINUED regarding the following:
impactr $dents in the affected area and relocation if
necessary,* Wickes property, the Simpson's property,
on/parking •n Corners and location of -
tanks at Dixon Corners, whether the Highway Department
would agree to improve only Leander Road at this time,
estimation of - the additional 20 feet,--• • to

RETURN TO AGENDA ITEM NO. 890405
890405 Question on requirement to overturn the Planning and
Zoning Commission vote (requirement of 75% of the
Council).
Diane Callander responded, stating that the three-
quarter vote only applies when the Planning and Zoning
Commission recommends denial of the proposed action and
the Council chooses to approve it. It would then require
a three-quarter vote, but as this was not the situation
in the present case of the Williams Drive rezoning, it
is just the regular majority vote.
