Page 6 - City Plan Commission - March 2, 1978 There were no objectors present. Staff reconnnendations : We have two Special tise permits for Day Care Centers on this agenda. This petition has a fenced in yard. In both instances, the fire marshal has nat yet made his inspection of the houses. Staff feels there is no particular problem for this use at this location. Staff would reconunend the approval of the petition subject to a maximwa of eight children and to a favorable report from the fire marshal. The fire marshal has standards for the number of children to be handled, based an the type of ingress and egress. Staff feels that with this stipulation, they will not send the matter to Council until a favorable report is made by the f ire marshal. There was some discussion regarding square footage requirements which the fire marshal has and which Children and Fazaily Services have. The agency has already inspected the house. , it was moved and seconded (Cusick/Bassett) and unanimausly passed ' that Cal. No. 78-27 be reconmeended to Council for approval, subject ' to a favorable report from the fire marshal and not more than eight children to be cared for. i Cal.
