- The proposed location contains approximately 5 spaces for vehicle use. - The two (2) garage spaces and the one (I) curbside space provide sufficient parking for the personal vehicle and an additional employee vehicle. - The use of the two (2) driveway spaces provides for safe child drop-off and pick-up needs. Staff is requiring that an assigned drop-off and pick-up schedule be developed by the applicant to facilitate the availability of the spaces. Such drop-off and pick up schedules have been used on pervious daycare applications and have worked to mitigate the parking shortages and impacts on neighboring lots. Stafffeels that the institution of the drop-off and pick-up schedule is appropriate for this site. - All parents of children attending the facility will need to sign an agreement with the facility operator noting the acceptance of the proposed parking schedule, the parking location limitations, and the adherence to the speed limit of the development. D. Noise Control: Largefamily daycare homes shall not create noise levels in excess of those allowed in single-family residential areas in the noise element of the general plan or in excess of those allowed in residential property by chapter 9.04 of this code. The zoning administrator may impose reasonable limits on the hours of operation of the large family daycare home in order to ensure that these limits are met. - A large family daycare home could conceivably generate additional noise that would affect surrounding homes when the children are not closely supervised. Staff feels that the availability of play area for the children to use and the separation between the homes will minimize the noise level to an acceptable standard. E. Fire Code Requirements: Large family daycare homes shall meet all regulations of the state fire marshal adopted as part of the California Administrative Code and relating specifically to large family daycare homes. (Ord. 112699, 1984; Prior Code 92-11.20(c)). - The Fire Safety Clearance section of the Department of Social Services-CCL (section 102371) states that family daycare homes must obtain a fire safety clearance by the city fire department (Attachment No.5). The Fire Department has not noted any concerns regarding access to the site or the ability of the applicant to receive fire clearance. In conjunction with the required areas of review, staff has also analyzed the general child safety and land use compatibility concerns of the proposed project. Safety: The Fire Department, Child Care links, and the Alameda County Child Care Licensing Department have not identified any safety concerns' regarding this proj ect and staff feels that the unsafe traffic maneuvers have been mitigated with the conditions of approval. Therefore, staff finds that this application for a large family daycare home meets the standards and regulations, which allows it to be located in the proposed location.
