<br /> <br />P26-0222, 4301 Hacienda, Suites 100 & 120 Planning Commission <br />3 of 6 <br />Figure 2: Perspective View of the Site Looking North <br /> <br /> <br />PROPOSED PROJECT <br />Fusion Academy is a fully accredited school and tutoring facility providing one-on-one and <br />small-group instruction for students in grades 6 through 12, and currently operates at this <br />location within Suite 120, with approval for up to 40 students on site at any one time. As part of <br />this application, they propose to expand and remodel their existing school to accommodate up <br />to 65 students on site at any one time by joining suites 120 (4,266 square feet) and 100 (2,075 <br />square feet) to create a new space with 6,341 square feet of gross floor area (see Exhibit B). <br /> <br />Fusion Academy differs from the typical school system. Instruction is primarily one-on-one and <br />in small group settings, allowing individualized schedules while offering state -certified courses <br />and electives that meet high school graduation requirements. As stated in the narrative, each <br />student’s class schedule is developed on an individual basis, so every student’s school day is <br />unique to his or her needs, with no two students having the same schedule. The space would <br />be divided into multiple one-on-one classrooms, independent study rooms, and a large central <br />study area. This allows guided as well as instructed independent study. <br /> <br />Fusion Academy offers a flexible, year-round academic schedule designed to meet the <br />demands of students whose needs don’t conform to a “traditional” semester calendar. Typical <br />school hours would be Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. – 8:00 p.m., with only occasional <br />evening use to accommodate a small number of students who may have difficult schedules, <br />and Saturday uses for SAT and ACT preparation and testing. There would be approximately <br />33 faculty/staff on site at any one time, helping to facilitate instruction and guided independent <br />study. <br /> <br />ANALYSIS <br />Conditional uses are those uses that, by their nature, require special consideration so they <br />may be located properly with respect to the objectives of the PMC and their potential effects on <br />surrounding properties. To achieve these purposes, the Planning Commission is empowered <br />to approve, conditionally approve, or deny CUP applications. <br /> <br />Proposed <br />Location
