After the public hearing and considerable Council discussion the Resolution was continued until December 3 , 1985 . Due to the brevity of the public hearing portion of the meeting we are writing this letter to help clarify some questions raised by yourselves . The proposed amendment would allow a Child Day Care Facility to be constructed on a site specifically zoned C-N within the City ' s PC zone . A previous proposal considered joint use of the site by a Day Care Facility and a convenience store . This proposal was recommended for approval by the Planning Commission on February 13 , 1985 but denied by Council on February 26 , 1985 . The Amendment before you now would utilize the entire site for a Day Care Facility to be built in two phases . The initial phase would have an enrollment of 175 children with an ultimate expansion and enrollment of 275 children . The fonitialcphaseen r would provide 47 ,800 square feet of play area resulting in 273 square feet of play area per child . The ultimate expansion would provide 32 , 100 square feet of play area for 275 children yielding 117 square feet of play area per child . Design and construction of Day Care Facilities is regulated by the State of California which sets minimum requirements for play area based on enrollment . The State requires a site to provide 75 square feet of play area per child and assumes that the entire school enrollment will be in the play area at the same time . 9619 chesap Bake drive,suite 101,san diego,california 92123 tel:(619)565-7227 At one point in the meeting a comparison was made between Day Care Facilities and Public Elementary Schools with respect to site size and use . Such a comparison is invalid upon closer inspection of the two uses . Elementary holsatypicallyiserve letic an area of several miles in radius and provide for several sports . Many times these fields are for t hetjoint use by the school and the community . addition the same time the n red school enrollment is dsuzedgaccordingly . therefore the play areas Typically , La Petite Academy ' s enrollment consists of both preschool and school age children participating in either partial or full -week programs . The childrens activities are carefully scheduled for efficient , orderly use of he facility . Use of their outside play areas are generally limited no more than one-third of the enrollment at any one time . The previous proposal for joint use of the site by a Day Care Facility and a convenience store provided approximately 24 , 380 square feet of play area for 140 children yielding 178 square feet per child . If the same criteria of 178 square feet per child is applied to the current proposal a maximum ue enrollment of 233 children could b9 '�50°Sgduare The feetewuth' total parking of would be approximately 44 spaces . In view of the above , a maximum enrollment of 233 might be considered as an ultimate limit without future Council action . Thank you for your consideration . Sincerely , William R.
