On the article Planning Commission Denies Daycare Recommendation

And a daycare is only open 6-6 Monday - Friday. It looks like the current zoning (R3) allows for a nursing home (open 24/7 with ambulances coming and going who knows when) and allows for a group home (also open 24/7 with who knows what kind of people coming and going) and allows for oil and gas drilling. It seems a daycare would be welcome over those other options...

ReplyDenied over .006 of an acre? 6/1000ths? Less than 20 square yds? It seems they'd be setting a precedent if they were making an exception for 1/10th or even 1/100th of an acre, but common sense says most people wouldn't be able to tell the difference visually between 1 acre and .994 of an acre. Bad call.

ReplyWhen I first moved here from Maryland, I was traveling Monday-Thursday each week for work - and for the first year and a half, I hardly even met my neighbors. When that job assignment ended, I was finally able to attend a Newcomers coffee one morning. Through that, I learned about the play groups, and quickly joined when we adopted our son. If only I had looked into Newcomers earlier, I would've seen they offered weekend and couples events! I shouldn't have waited a year and a half to meet people. It's not only if you're new to the area - join also if you have a life changing event, like a new empty nest, or a new child, or a new job.

ReplyAn indoor playground of some sort - there's nothing for the toddler set and younger kids to do there in the winter to burn energy except swim, which in the winter requires a change of clothes (and just more laundry and hassle for the parents). And sometimes it's just too cold outside to swim, even when it's warm inside. Toddlers need to stay active too.

I hope they can work out an outdoor pool - and I hope it's cheaper than USC Rec Center - they need some competition! AND this would have an ice rink to boot!
