This request will have no impact on these facilities.
PUBLIC FACILITIES
Fire Service and Transportation:
The proposed use will have a minimal impact on the existing transportation network and
fire/rescue services.
LAND USE
Comprehensive Plan:
The request lies within the boundaries of the Central Area Plan which suggests the property
is appropriate for residential use of 1.00 to 2.5 dwelling units per acre.
Area Development Trends:
The property is located within Great Oaks Subdivision. Adjacent properties are zoned
Residential (R-9) and are occupied by single family dwellings. It is anticipated that
residential use will continue in the area as recommended by the Plan.
Site Design:
The applicant proposes to utilize the dwelling in which she resides and the backyard area for
the family day care home. To insure that the residential character of the area is maintained,
conditions preclude any additions to the existing dwelling to accommodate the use and any
sign to identify the use. (Conditions 2 and 3)
Use:
As noted herein, the applicant is proposing to operate a family day care home. The Zoning
Ordinance permits the keeping of a maximum of five (5) children, excluding the provider's
children and any children who reside in the home, as a restricted use in a residential district.
The Ordinance would allow the keeping of up to twelve (12) children with a Conditional
Use.
CONCLUSION
The proposed family day care home, as conditioned, should have no adverse impact on the
surrounding neighborhood. Similar family day care homes have been approved in other
neighborhoods and have operated without any apparent impact on area residences. The conditions

are similar to conditions imposed upon other family day care homes and are designed to maintain
the residential character of the area (Conditions 1 through 3). Therefore, approval of this request,
subject to the condition is recommended.
