Memo to City Council/CU 99-25
July 19,1999
Page 2
PUD for the construction of the Angel Ridge apartment facility. In 1998, a building
permit was issued to allow inernal remodeling of an area 39' x 55.5' for use as a
daycare facility. Children of ages from infants to preschool age are cared for in the
center.
Proposed Improvement
The child care center currently services 16 children. The proposed improvement entails
constructing a restroom facility within the entrance to the facility. A sink is located in the
entry and would be utilized in the new restroom. The additional restroom facility would
allow an increase in children to 31.
Increasing the number of children served would not adversely impact the traffic or
parking of the remainder of the facility. The improvement should comply with State
licensing requirements and local building requirements prior to an increase in the
number of children serviced.
Planning Commission Action
At its June 22, 1999 meeting, the Planning Commission voted unanimously to
recommend approval of the request, CU 99-25, to the City Council with the following
condition:
1. THE IMPROVEMENT COMPLY WITH STATE LICENSING AND LOCAL
BUILDING CODES PRIOR TO THE INCREASE IN CHILDREN TO BE SERVICED.
City Council Recommendation
The proposed improvement and change in the number of children to be serviced poses
no adverse impacts to parking or traffic on the remainder of the site. Staff recommends
that the City Council approve the request, CU 99-25, with the following condition:
1. THE IMPROVEMENT COMPLY WITH STATE LICENSING AND LOCAL
BUILDING CODES PRIOR TO THE INCREASE IN CHILDREN TO BE SERVICED.

CARE CENTER

Telephone: (612) 441-1213 · Fax: (612) 241-4444
REASON FOR CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
Guardian Angels Health Services is seeking to expand the occupancy of our on site child care
center, Little Angels Child Care Center. Currently Little Angels is licensed for 16 children and we
are requesting approval to expand to a maximum of 31 children. This is due to our growing
waiting list of children desiring to enroll in our center.
Little Angels is located within Guardian Angels Care Center and is designed primarily for the staff
of Guardian Angels. Approximately sixty percent of the children currently enrolled in the center
are children of staff members. The remainder consists of children from the community. Given this
we have minimal added traffic and parking poses no current problems. Even with the proposed
expansion, the majority of the traffic flow will remain stable as many on our waiting list are the
children of our existing staff:
.
The center, as noted above, is located within Guardian Angels Care Center. This proposed
expansion will not alter the outside of our current physical structure and will only require minimal
changes to the interior. We anticipate adding a restroom in the child care center in order to meet
State licensing requirements. No additional physical plant changes are anticipated by granting this
request.
In closing, Little Angels Child Care Center provides a valuable service to our employees, residents
and the community. The benefits of our center are tremendous. The staff love being close to
their children, the residents love the interaction and activity that the children bring, and the
community has another quality driven child care center operated by an organization that is well
respected in our community.
