Findings:
A. The proposed use at the particular location is necessar ! or desirable to provide a service or
facility which will contribute to the general well being of tile neighborhood or the community. A
Vocational School which teaches Networking Technolo y and Business Office Administration
contributes a service that is necessary to our society ~hich is increasingly dependent upon
applied information services. The particular location is ~ )propdate as it is existing office space
with adequate parking provided in the immediate vicinity.
/
B. That such use will not under the circumstances of thelparticular case, be detrimental to the
health, safety or general welfare of persons residing o~1 working in the vicinity or injurious to
property or improvements in the vicinity. The class and I~usiness hours of the establishment are
within the normal operating hours of the commercial coreI The student body of 120, faculty, and
support staff have adequate parking in the immediaf.~ vicinity. The teaching of business
administration and networking technological skills is an in~ iocuous use and is therefore not a use
that is particularly detrimental to health, safety, or gener~ ii welfare to either people or property.
This use will bring additional day time residents to the T¢ wn Centre area to assist in refocusing
the residents of the City to the downtown area as its comr ~ercial retail core.
