IF THERE IS IRREGULARITY WITH THAT, WHAT OTHER IRREGULAR DAYS ARE GOING ON? THAT DID NOT MAKE ME FEEL COMFORTABLE AS A VOTER TO SEE THAT. SO PAYING ATTENTION MAY BE A GOOD THING. WITH REGARD TO ELECTIONS, WOULD LOVE TO SEE SOMETHING ABOUT THE ELECTION WATER BILLS SO PEOPLE KNOW SO WE GET A BETTER TURNOUT AND MAYBE EVEN USE THE TEXTING SYSTEM. I KNOW IN ROCKWALL COUNTY TO USE THE SYSTEM TO INFORM PEOPLE ABOUT VOTING BUT SOMETIMES THEY DO IT AND SOMETIMES THEY DON'T. LAST COMMENT IS A BIG THANK YOU TO THE ROWLETT POLICE DEPARTMENT FOR COMING THIS PAST WEEKEND TO A PARTY HELD AT A SHORT-TERM RENTAL. ONCE AGAIN WE HAVE A SHORT-TERM RENTAL ISSUE. THERE WERE 42 CARS, YES A NEIGHBOR OF MINE COUNTED. THERE WERE 42 CARS ON THE STREET. THIS IS CALLED A PARTY. I DON'T WANT TO KEEP DOING THIS AFTER THE FACT. I WOULD LIKE TO AVOID IT AHEAD OF TIME. WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO SEIZE A PUBLIC POSTING OF ALL THE VIOLATIONS AND PLEASE DON'T TELL ME ABOUT PRIVACY BECAUSE MEDICAL BOARDS LOVE TO POST ALL THE DOCTORS GETTING CHARGED WITH THIS THAT AND THE OTHER THING.

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND NO PARTIES ARE ALLOWED, TRASH DAYS ARE THIS AND THIS, PLEASE PARK IN ONE OF THE TWO SPOTS AVAILABLE. I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THE CITY DEMAND THAT THE SHORT-TERM RENTALS PROVIDE THAT INFORMATION TO THE PEOPLE COMING TO THE RENTALS SO WE DON'T HAVE THE SITUATION. AGAIN A BIG FIGURE TO OFFICER

>> THANK YOU, SIR. ALL RIGHT. ANY OTHER REQUESTS FROM THE

[6. CONSENT AGENDA]

>> SO MOVE THAT WE APPROVE THE MINUTES WITH THE ADDITIONS OR

THE CORRECTIONS STATED. >> MOTION AND SECOND FROM COUNCILMEMBER REAVES. MOTION AND SECOND TO PROVE MINUTES WITH THOSE CORRECTIONS AS STATED. ANY DISCUSSION? LET'S CALL THE VOTE PLEASE.

THAT ITEM CARRIES BY VOTE 6-0. WITH MOVING ON TO INDIVIDUAL

[7A. Conduct a public hearing regarding a request by Stacy Tucker, on behalf of property owners Jeff and Debbie Maxey, to amend the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance and Map by amending the zoning for an approximately 0.46 acre lot situated southeast of the intersection of Hickox and Toler Road, being further described as Lot 13, Block 1, Chandler Park , an addition to the City of Rowlett, Texas according to the map recorded in Volume 77151, Page 2168 of the Deed Records of Dallas County, Texas and being more commonly known as 3205 Toler Drive from Single Family Residential – 40/24 (SF-40) to Single Family Residential – 40/24 with a Special Use Permit to allow for an enclosed accessory structure with an area greater than 500 square feet and not exceeding 1,140 square feet (SF-40-SUP).]

[00:15:07]

>> THE ITEM BEFORE YOU , THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS ZONED SF 40, THE LOT IS 4.6 ACRES AND IT IS PLATTED A SITE PLAN SHOWS 700 -- 2700 SQUARE FOOT PRIMARY STRUCTURE WITH ADDITION TO ATTACHED GARAGE IN ADDITION 160 SQUARE FOOT OF PORTABLE STORAGE SHED WITHIN THE PROPERTY. SO WHEN WE ARE LOOKING AT ACCESSORY STRUCTURES TO LOOK AT THE LOT COVERAGE, HEIGHT AND SETBACK REQUIREMENTS. IN THIS CASE SF-40 DISTRICT DOES NOT HAVE LOT COVERAGE REQUIREMENTS OF THE CODE TELLS US TO LOOK BACK AT THE REAR LOT AREA AND APPLY THE SAME CONCEPT. BASED ON CALCULATIONS PROVIDED BY THE APPLICANT WE CONCLUDED IT MEETS THE 35% THRESHOLD FOR THE REAR LOT COVERAGE. I WANT TO POINT OUT DURING MY PRESENTATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION I DID NOT NOTICE PART OF THE EXISTING DRIVEWAY COVERED PART OF THE REAR LOT SO I ADDED THAT TO TOTAL CALCULATION AND IT STILL FALLS WITHIN 35% THRESHOLD. SO THE HEIGHT REQUIREMENTS , THE APPLICATION PROVIDED TO US STILL MEETS REQUIREMENT OF THE PRIMARY STRUCTURE BEING TALLER THAN THE PROPOSED ACCESSORY STRUCTURE. IN TERMS OF SETBACK THE SAME THING, THE APPLICANT MEETS THE REQUIREMENTS OF A THREE FOOT SETBACK REQUIREMENT FROM THE REAR END THE SITE AND I HIGHLIGHT SPECIFICS OF MY PRESENTATION. IN ADDITION TO THE EIGHT FEET FROM THE PRIMARY STRUCTURE. THE CODE ALSO TELLS US ANY TYPE OF ACCESSORY USE IS INCIDENTAL TO PRIMARY YEARS AND IN THIS CASE THE APPLICANT IS USING IT TO STORE ANTIQUE VEHICLE A PERSONAL WORKSHOP AND STORAGE OF HOUSEHOLD GOODS. WE DID SEND NOTICES WITHIN 200 TO 500 FOOT AND RECEIVED TWO IN FAVOR IN TWO IN FAVOR WITHIN 200 AND 500 BUFFER. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION AT THE MAY 27 MEETING DID RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE ITEM 7-0 AND TODAY YOU AS THE APPROVING BODY GET TO PROVE WITH CONDITIONS OR DENY A REQUEST. THAT IS THE END OF THIS PRESENTATION. I AM HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.

>> THANK YOU. COUNCIL, ANY QUESTIONS? WITH THAT WE WILL OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. 7:18 P.M. ANY MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC WHO WISH TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM? WE WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND CLOCK ROLLED OVER TO 7:19 P.M. SO WITH THAT WE WILL MOVE

[7B. Consider action to adopt an ordinance regarding a request by Stacy Tucker, on behalf of property owners Jeff and Debbie Maxey, to amend the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance and Map by amending the zoning for an approximately 0.46 acre lot situated southeast of the intersection of Page 3 of 3 Hickox and Toler Road, being further described as Lot 13, Block 1, Chandler Park , an addition to the City of Rowlett, Texas according to the map recorded in Volume 77151, Page 2168 of the Deed Records of Dallas County, Texas and being more commonly known as 3205 Toler Drive from Single Family Residential – 40/24 (SF-40) to Single Family Residential – 40/24 with a Special Use Permit to allow for an enclosed accessory structure with an area greater than 500 square feet and not exceeding 1,140 square feet (SF-40-SUP).]

>> I WANT TO SAY I WENT OUT THERE TODAY AND I MET WITH THE HOMEOWNER, TOOK A LOOK TO GET AN IDEA. IT IS COMPLETELY IN CHARACTER WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD. HOUSES ON BOTH SIDES HAVE SIMILAR STRUCTURES, THEY ARE LARGE LOTS, IT FITS SO I WILL BE

VOTING TO APPROVE THIS. >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? I WILL ENTERTAIN A MOTION. MOTION FROM COUNCILMEMBER SCHUPP TO PROVE . IT YOUR BUTTON OVERTIME.

[00:20:05]

>> I MOVE THAT WE APPROVE THE CONSIDERATION OF THE. YES

SPECIAL USE PERMIT. >> MOTION TO APPROVE SPECIAL USE PERMIT AND SECOND FROM COUNCILMEMBER BRITTON PERFECT.

MOTION AND SECOND ITEM 7 B TO PROVE. ANY DISCUSSION BEFORE WE TAKE THE VOTE? LET'S CALL THE VOTE PLEASE. THAT ITEM CARRIES

[7C. Conduct a public hearing regarding on a request by Akhila Reddy, on behalf of property owner Sreelakshmi Tinnanooru to amend the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance and Map by granting a change in zoning from Revised Planned Development 1-6-98A (PD 1-6-98A Revised) to Revised Planned Development 6-3-25 (PD 6-3-25 Revised) by amending the development regulations to allow for day care use, to allow for up to forty (40) off-street parking spaces, and to eliminate the requirement for drop-off/pick up lanes for an approximately 1.49 acre lot located within the planned development, said lot being identified as Lot 2, Block A, Tallal Addition in the City of Rowlett, Dallas County, Texas and being more commonly known as 5602 Dexham Road.]

CONDUCT A PUBLIC HEARING REGARDING ON A REQUEST BY AKHILA REDDY, ON BEHALF OF PROPERTY OWNER SREELAKSHMI TINNANOORU TO AMEND THE COMPREHENSIVE ZONING ORDINANCE AND MAP BY GRANTING A CHANGE IN ZONING FROM REVISED PLANNED DEVELOPMENT 1-6-98A (PD 1-6-98A REVISED) TO REVISED PLANNED DEVELOPMENT 6-3-25 (PD 6-3-25 REVISED) BY AMENDING THE DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS TO ALLOW FOR DAY CARE USE, TO ALLOW FOR UP TO FORTY (40) OFF-STREET PARKING SPACES, AND TO ELIMINATE THE REQUIREMENT FOR DROP-OFF/PICK UP LANES FOR AN APPROXIMATELY 1.49 ACRE LOT LOCATED WITHIN THE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT, SAID LOT BEING IDENTIFIED AS LOT 2, BLOCK A, TALLAL ADDITION IN THE CITY OF ROWLETT, DALLAS COUNTY, TEXAS AND BEING MORE COMMONLY KNOWN AS

5602 DEXHAM ROAD >> THE OTTOMAN FRONT OF YOU TONIGHT TELLS YOU WHAT IT IS BUT IT IS A PLAN TO AMEND DEVELOPMENT FOR DISTRICT WITH COMMERCIAL USE AND IN THIS CASE TO ALLOW FOR DAYCARE USE BY RIGHT TO INCREASE MAXIMUM ALLOWED PARKING SPACES AND ELIMINATION OF THE DEDICATED DROP OFF AND PICK UP LANES REQUIRED FOR DAYCARE CENTER PER CODE STANDARD. THE PROPERTIES 1.4 ACRES OF UNDEVELOPED LAND.

IT IS PD WITH GENERAL COMMERCIAL USE. THE AMENDMENT DOES GET APPROVED IT WILL BE FOR THAT SPECIFIC SITE NOT AFFECTING OTHER PROPERTIES WITHIN THE BOUNDARY. STAFF WENT AHEAD AND REVIEWED THE TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS SECTION ON THE CODE AND DEEMED NOT NECESSARY TO ASK THE APPLICANT FOR TIA IT MET THE THRESHOLDS OF COAT. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION THIS DAYCARE CENTER WILL BE OPERATING WITH 80 TO 100 STUDENTS AND 22 TO 24 STAFF MEMBERS. THE LAND USE PATTERN AROUND THE AREA 'S PRIMARY RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL. YOU ARE LOOKING AT ALSO ASSISTED LIVING FACILITY WEST OF THE PROPERTY BY SPECIAL USE PERMIT TODAY. THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND VISION FOR THE AREA IS PRIMARILY RETAIL COMMERCIAL AND OFFICE WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF WHAT WE ARE LOOKING AT TODAY. WHEN WE'RE LOOKING AT A DAYCARE, IT'S NOT NECESSARILY USE THAT FITS WITHIN RESIDENTIAL OR. COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SO WE TYPICALLY SEE IT FITTING BEST WITH HIGH RESIDENTIAL OR HIGH DENSITY RESIDENTIAL. OR SOMETHING ALONG THE LINES OF LIMITED COMMERCIAL WITHIN C 1 WHICH RIGHT NOW IS BY SPECIAL USE PERMIT. WHEN LOOKING AT THE USE, CONSIDER THE CONTEXT IN WHAT YOU ARE PLACING WHEN MAKING A DECISION. ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATION IS THIS WILL BE A 10,000 SQUARE-FOOT BUILDING SETBACK 50 FEET ALONG ROAD, 30 FOOT HIGH BUILDING WITH TWO PROPOSED INGRESS AND EGRESS POINTS OF ACCESS FROM . THE PARKING REQUIREMENT IS ONE SQUARE FEET PLUS ONE SPACE FOR PICKUP AND DROP-OFF. WHICH LEADS ME TO THE APPLICANT REQUEST NOT ONLY TO ALLOW DAYCARE BY USE BUT TO MODIFY STANDARDS. SO THEY ARE REQUESTING INCREASING PARKING REQUIREMENTS FROM 24 REQUIRED TO 40 WHICH EXCEEDS 125% ALLOWED BY CODE TODAY. THE REASON WHY LEADS ME TO THE NEXT REQUEST THE ELIMINATION OF DROP-OFF AND PICKUP LANE REQUIRED BY CODE FOR A DAYCARE CENTER. IN THIS CASE THE APPLICANT JUSTIFICATION IS BECAUSE IT'S NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE OPERATIONAL MODEL.

PARENTS TYPICALLY WITHIN WITH THE DO PICK UP , THEY PARK , DROP KIDS INSIDE, SIGN IN AND TYPICALLY IT TAKES 5 TO 10 MINUTES AND THE APPLICANT IS HERE WITH PRESENTATION AND THEY WILL BE ABLE TO PROVIDE MORE INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THEIR

[00:25:04]

>> THANK YOU, COUNCIL BEFORE WE HEAR THE APPLICANT PRESENTATION, ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? WOULD IT BE , CAN YOU TALK ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY OR OPTION FOR A MEDIAN CUT ACROSS FROM THIS

FACILITY? >> THAT WOULD BE A BETTER

QUESTION FOR OUR ENGINEER. >> OKAY, THAT'S ALL RIGHT. OKAY LET'S HAVE THE APPLICANT COME UP AND MAKE THEIR PRESENTATION

PLEASE. >> HI EVERYONE GOOD EVENING THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME MY NAME IS YOU. I CREATED A SMALL PRESENTATION TO SHOW YOU GUYS SOME PICTURES OF HOW THE SCHOOL IS GOING TO LOOK AND WHAT WE ARE REQUESTING TODAY. WE ARE FROM THE COMPANY CALLED THE LEARNING EXPERIENCE, ONE OF THE LEADING CHILDCARE FRANCHISEES ACROSS THE U.S. AND WE ARE EXPANDING INTO LONDON THIS YEAR AS WELL. WE WERE JUST RATED ON THE 500 LIST, NUMBER ONE CHILDCARE CENTER IN TERMS OF BRANDING PER THE ENTREPRENEUR MAGAZINE. CURRENTLY THE LEARNING EXPERIENCE AS A BRAND OPERATES OVER 500 CENTERS ACROSS THE U.S. AND WE SERVE OVER 54,000 CHILDREN. THESE TWO ARE SIMILAR PROJECTS WE HAVE COMPLETED IN U.S. CITIES IN RICHARDSON AND KELLER. JUST WANTED TO SHOW A FEW PHOTOS, ALL SCHOOLS ARE PRETTY MUCH BUILT WITH THE SAFETY OF THE CHILDREN IN MIND AT THE END OF THE DAY HAVING CHILDREN IS A RESPONSIBILITY. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE A SPACE SAFE FOR THEM AND THEY'RE HAVING FUN AND ALSO LEARNING AND THAT'S HOW WE HAVE BUILT ALL OF OUR SCHOOLS. TO SHOW YOU A SAMPLE OF HOW OUR CENTERS ARE GOING TO LOOK. THE LOBBY WILL LOOK LIKE THE TOP LEFT, SOME CLASSROOMS AND PLAYGROUNDS HAVE PLAY STRUCTURES AND WATER FEATURES AS WELL. WE ALSO HAVE A MAKE-BELIEVE , WHERE WE HAVE TECHNOLOGY WHERE WE TEACH CHILDREN , WE INTEGRATE TECHNOLOGY INTO THE LEARNING CURRICULUM. THIS IS THE SITE PLAN FOR ROWLETT. IT IS A 10,000 SQUARE-FOOT BUILDING WITH 5000 SQUARE-FOOT PLAYHOUSE . THIS IS HOW THE BUILDING WILL LOOK, THIS IS MORE CONTEMPORARY AND MUCH MORE MODERN THAN THE PREVIOUS PROJECTS WE HAVE DONE. OUR REQUEST TODAY AS CITY STAFF HAVE ASKED , ONE IS TO REMOVE , TO EXEMPT US FROM PICKUP AND DROP-OFF LANES , THE MAIN REASON IS THE OPERATIONAL MODEL. WE DON'T HAVE PARENTS COME TO THE DROP-OFF LANES AND JUST DROP OFF THE KIDS AND LEAVE, THE MAIN REASON IS IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND FROM A LICENSING PERSPECTIVE. THAT'S WHAT ALL CENTERS ACROSS ALL 500 WE HAVE PARENTS COME PARK THE CAR BRING THE CHILDREN INSIDE SAFELY. WE HAVE A SECURITY SYSTEM WHERE THEY HAVE TO SHOW ID, CHECK IN WITH THE SECURITY CODE. THEY GO INTO THE CLASSROOM TALK WITH THE TEACHER, DROP-OFF SAY BYE COME BACK CHECK OUT AND THEN THEY LEAVE. THE PROCESS TAKES MORE THAN FIVE MINUTES AND A LOT OF THE PICKUPS HAPPEN DURING PEAK TIMES IN THE PICKUP TIME THERE ARE PEAK HOURS. WHENEVER THEY

[00:30:01]

>> THANK YOU FOR THE PRESENTATION. QUESTIONS FOR THE

APPLICANT. COUNCILMEMBER SCHUPP. >> I WENT OUT THERE TODAY AND LOOKED AT THE PROPERTY. THE USE SEEMS TO FIT FOR ME RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET YOU HAVE A ASSISTED-LIVING CENTER, TO THE SOUTH YOU HAVE A BANK , BEHIND YOU HAVE HOME DEPOT THE DETENTION PONDS SO IT FITS IN AND DOES NOT IMPEDE IN MY PINION DOES NOT IMPEDE UPON THE SURROUNDING AREA. MAYBE SOMEBODY EXPLAIN ONE MORE TIME. I GUESS MY FEAR YOU HAVE 40 SPOTS, 26 STAFF SO YOU HAVE 14 SPOTS WITH NO DRIVE THROUGH MY CONCERN IS THAT IS A PRETTY MAJOR CORNER AT DEXHAM ROAD 66 HOW DO WE MAKE SURE WE DON'T HAVE BACKUP ON THE STREET? THAT'S MY PRIMARY CONCERN. DO YOU KIND OF DISCUSSED IT BUT I'M NOT SURE I COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND MAYBE THAT'S THE WAY YOU DO IT AND IT'S NOT A PROBLEM. IF YOU WILL DO JUST THAT MAYBE.

>> VERY MUCH, SO I THINK YOU GUYS SHOULD HAVE THE TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS. ONE IS FOR SIMILAR DAYCARE CENTER 10,000 SQUARE-FOOT THE SAME BUILDING FOOTPRINT AND WHEN WE DID THE STUDY THE ROTATION OF THE CARS MAXIMUM PARENTS CAME TO PARK WAS 14 AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE DOCUMENT. THAT WAS A DETAILED STUDY THAT DONE. EVEN A FULL OCCUPANCY ANY GIVEN TIME THERE WILL BE 14 CARS PARKED AND WILL ROTATE OVER THAT BUT IT WON'T BE MORE. EVEN THE 26 STAFF IS COMPLETELY FULL OCCUPANCY WHICH WILL TAKE ONE TO TWO YEARS. STAFF ARE OWN ROTATIONAL SCHEDULE AS WELL SO ALTHOUGH THERE WILL BE 26, LET'S SAY EVERYONE IS AT THE SAME TIME THERE WILL BE ROTATION TO THAT.

IDEALLY MORE PARKING IS GREAT BUT GIVEN THE RESTRICTIONS AND SIZE OF THE PLOT WE NEED AT LEAST 40 AND THAT'S WHERE IT ALLOWS US BECAUSE AT THE END OF THE DAY PARENTS ARE A PRIORITY.

FROM WHAT ENGINEERS THOUGHT THEY FELT THAT IS ENOUGH.

>> ONE OTHER QUESTION AND I KNOW WE PUT UP A DRAWING. IS THERE ONE POINT OF INGRESS AND EGRESS OR TWO? THERE ARE TWO POINTS

OKAY. THANK YOU. >> WHAT OTHER QUESTIONS DO YOU

HAVE FOR THE APPLICANT? >> CAN I SAY SOMETHING? I JUST GOT THE PET INITIATIVE WAS REALLY NICE. I'VE NEVER SEEN

ANY OTHER CITY COUNCIL DO IT. >> THANK YOU, WE DO OUR BEST TO RELEASE AS MANY ANIMALS ALIVE AS WE CAN IN THE CITY AND IT'S

DIFFICULT . >> HAVE A GREAT PYRENEES THAT WAS A RESCUE. NOW IT IS A 170 POUND DOG.

>> COUPLE QUESTIONS FOR YOUR. HELP ME UNDERSTAND THE BIDIRECTIONAL TRAFFIC BECAUSE TO ME IN MY MIND I IMAGINE IT MAKES SENSE TO HAVE TRAFFIC FLOW IN ONE DIRECTION IN AND OUT OF THE

[00:35:03]

SITE. >> WE HAD TWO OR THREE MEETINGS AND WE SAT DOWN WITH OUR ENGINEERS AND CITY ENGINEERS AND THAT'S WITH THE MEDIAN CUT, THEY SUGGESTED BECAUSE YOU ARE NORTHBOUND ON LAKEVIEW SO THEY WANTED TO MAKE SURE PARENTS ARE ABLE TO CIRCULATE ALMOST SOUTH TO NORTH ADJUSTING HIS TO GIVE OPTIONS TO THE PARENTS THEY WANTED ANOTHER INGRESS AND EGRESS. WE WERE BASING IT ON THE CITY ENGINEER DISCUSSIONS.

ANYTHING MORE? >> STAFF SUGGESTED THE BIDIRECTIONAL WOULD BE BETTER EVEN THOUGH THERE'S NO MEDIAN

CUT? >> THERE IS A MEDIAN CUT. LOOK AT THE SITE PLAN ON THE LEFT SIDE. THERE WILL BE A MEDIAN CUT OF THE FIRST EGRESS AND INGRESS .

>> I SEE. SPENT VERY ABOUT QUESTION BECAUSE YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE THE TRAFFIC COMING IN AND OUT MAKE SENSE. WE HAVE TO MAKE SURE THEIR SAFETY TO THE AREA. THAT'S WHERE THE ENGINEERING TEAM AND CITY ENGINEER SAT DOWN AND CAME UP

WITH IT. >> OKAY I THINK THAT MAKES A LOT MORE SENSE THAT WAY. I DID NOT NOTICE THAT AT FIRST, THAT ADDS CLARITY. IN THAT CASE BIDIRECTIONAL DOES MAKE SENSE.

WHAT I AM CONCERNED WITH JUST UP THE ROAD YOU HAVE THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL SO PEAK HOURS OF THE DAY YOU HAVE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL NOW DAYCARE, THE DAYCARE HAS 100 STUDENTS WHICH MEANS 100 TRIPS IN AND OUT EACH AND THE SCHOOL HAS A LINE FOR DROP OFF BETWEEN 7:45 AND 8:10 AND IN THE AFTERNOON NOT AS MUCH OF A CONFLICT BECAUSE SCHOOL IS LETTING OUT. I IMAGINE IN THE MORNING IS WHEN YOU HAVE YOUR BIGGEST INFLUENCE GOT TO SEE THE MEDIAN CUT BECAUSE FOR ME THAT WAS ALMOST INSTANTLY NO BECAUSE OF THE TRAFFIC FLOW THE U-TURN THAT WOULD HAVE TO TAKE PLACE ,

IT WOULD BE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE. >> A VALID POINT AND WE'RE THANKFUL TO THE CITY. THEY REALLY WORKED WITH US AND SAT DOWN. WE DON'T JUST WANT TO BUILD WANT TO COME AS A PARTNER TO THE COMMUNITY. WE'RE GOING TO BEST -- BUT THE BEST CENTER.

>> TWO OTHER LOCATIONS KELLER AND RICHARDSON. AND FLOWER MOUND

WHEN DID RICHARDSON GOING? >> 2021 AND KELLER WAS 2023.

KELLER WAS 2023 GOOGLE MAPS IS BEHIND THE TIMES BECAUSE THE VIEW SHOWS DIRT. WHAT ABOUT FLOWER MOUND?

>> FLOWER MOUND WAS EXISTING BUILDING WE ACQUIRED IN 2024.

>> OKAY PERFECT, LOOKING AT THE OTHER SITES THEY DO NOT FRONT WELL ONE OF THEM FRONTS A SMALLER SITE STREET BUT THIS WILL FRONT A MAJOR THOROUGHFARE.

>> THE KELLER ONE IS ON ENTRANCE TO A LARGE NEIGHBORHOOD 4000 TO 5000 HOMES WITH A SIMILAR FOOTPRINT. RICHARDSON ALTHOUGH NOT STRAIGHT ON THE ROAD IT IS NEXT TO KROGER WITH TONS OF

APARTMENTS. >> OKAY PERFECT THAT'S GREAT.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? COUNCILMEMBER GIBBS.

>> ONE OF MY QUESTIONS IS FOR BUSES. WILL YOUR BUSES DOING

DROP OFF? >> FOR US NORMALLY THE PARENTS COME INTO DROP OFF WE DON'T REALLY HAVE A PICKUP SERVICE

RIGHT NOW. >> DO YOU PLAN ON HAVING A BUS SERVICE PICKING KIDS UP AND BRINGING THEM?

>> SOME SCHOOLS DO HAVE THAT, SOME DO NOT, IT IS UP TO THE

OPERATOR RUNNING THE SCHOOL. >> SO, NO BUSES.

>> AS OF NOW, NO. >> THERE IS NOTHING TO PREVENT

THEM FROM SWITCHING THE FUTURE. >> THE BUSES ARE NOT HUGE BUSES.

>> LIKE A 15 PASSENGER VAN. YOU FEEL IF YOU WERE TO ADD LET'S SAY 215 PASSENGER VANS AND YOUR STAFF PLUS THE PICKUP AND DROP OFF OF PARENTS, 40 SPACES IS ENOUGH CAPACITY?

>> OUR TEAM IN NORMALLY ANY GIVEN AREA THEY SEE THE DEMAND FOR AFTERSCHOOL PICKUP OR THEY DO PARENT INTERVIEWS. THEY DO A GROUND STUDY AND BASED ON THAT IN ROWLETT THAT NOT SEEN A LOT OF INTEREST, A LOT OF TIME PARENTS PREFER TO PICK UP THEMSELVES AND DROP OFF BECAUSE THAT'S QUALITY BONDING TIME WHERE THEY TALK. FROM THOSE DISCUSSIONS WE MAY NOT EVEN HAVE

[00:40:01]

A BUS OR MAYBE A SMALL ONE. >> I HAVE FOUR KIDS, BEFORE 2020 WE HAD KIDS IN AFTER SCHOOL DAYCARE BECAUSE WE WORKED OUTSIDE OF THE CITY AND IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO GET HOME BUT AFTER 2020 MAYBE THAT'S WHERE THE DEMAND DIPPED AND DROPPED OFF SO THAT'S INTERESTING. THINK OF THE QUESTION THAT'S A GOOD ONE.

WHAT OTHER QUESTIONS DO YOU ALL HAVE? SEEING KNOWN IF YOU WANT TO TAKE A SEAT WE WILL OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. 7:40 P.M. AND WE WILL OPEN PUBLIC HEARING, ANY REQUESTS TO SPEAK FROM ANYONE IN ATTENDANCE? WE WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND WE WILL MOVE
