Staff said the applicant wotiAd have to answer that question. Commissioner Lynch said this will only have new construction around the garage and the house would not be required to Book onto city sewer and staff said that this is correct. Commissioner �'{mbert asked about sewering of all of the Chico Urban Area because of the current requirements and timelines of the Nitrate Action Plan: Staff said the Nitrate Action Plan says ;the Chico Urban Area will have sewers by the year 1995, Vice-chairman Matson s i -1d that Condition 14 was in conflict with the 6 ft, high fence around the property.

She said she would like the Use Permit granted so they can use the building by September when school opens. She discussed taking out bu ;Iles to make it safer for traffic on the corner: She asked the Commission to change condition 03 to read "to connect to sewer or use existing septic system". She said she would not have more than 60 students. She said there is a ride shoring program already as aid they should not get over 20 cars coming in at one tir�ae, requested in Condit oia 15. She s Commissioner Ostrowski asked the age of the children: �'" kANt`l±00 'co a55 Q NUm S T xy 26 i 99t1` ru W Ms. Kenyon said the children are from 6-13 years of age, School is operl, from '8:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. daily, 186 days a year, September through June, with the summer off. Commissioner Ostrowski asked Ms. Kenyon if she was able to hookup to city sewer? Ms. Kenyon said that the cost to hook up to the city sewer is approximately $75,1700 and would not be possible for her to do. She said she has the opportunity to possibly hookup to the sewer behind - the property temporarily until sewer is nearing the front of her property. Siie said she has an easement from the other property owner behind her. She said the ratio of children to teachers is 12 to 1. She said there is a lot of supervision for the children. Jan Camb pell, 1765 Hooker Oak, Chico, said i she was against the school in the neighborhood. She said a school at this location was environmentally unsound. She said this s a quiet, family neighborhood. She said West Lindo Avenue is unsafe for even an increase of 20 cars per day. She said it is a 'fast and dangerous street. She was concerned with noise generated from the school. She was also concerned with the noise that would be generated from the renovation of the 75 year old House. She urged the Planning Commission to deny. the Use Permit. Kathy Ricci was opposed to the school. She said she has been a teacher for 12 years and she did not think they could keep 60 children quiet. She said the street is dangerous. She discussed the wildlife along Lindo Channel being disturbed. Philip Spe,Je said he was against the permit. He said West Lindo Avenue is a winding narrow, scenic road that people use to walk on, jog on, exercise their dogs on, etc. He said there are no sidewalks or shoulders along this road. He said an increase ease in traffic could be a danger to the people who use the road. He submitted a letter against the project. Ho mid his main concern was not the school, but the increase in traffic. He said the road is too narrow. He discussed speed limits and the people who break the speed limit. Charles Alexander said he was against this permit. He said lie wants to preserve the rural nature of the neighborhood. He said Condition 3 says the applicant must hook up to sewer. He questioned if a residential septic system could take care of 60-70 people. He said the property should also be hooked up to Cal Water. He did not think that ride sharing was enforceable. He said a bus service would be the only alternative to the traffic situation. David Habimi said his son goes to this school. I He voiced strong support for the school. He said lie is responsible for the safety of his child. He said the property is being purchased with the support of the parents. He said the traffic concerns have been addressed through the mitigation measures and he asked that the Use Permit be granted. Lauren Zak said her son attends this school. She said a Montessori school is not like a public school. She said the children are walked into the school and picked up at the door. She said the children are not allowed to wait out in front of the school without supervision. She was willing to donate a Culigan Water System if necessary for drinking water. She asked that the Use Permit. be approved. r tNOt�u�' - CQ N—Y. ..I MNXT C C MM S �fJN 1,t Sue Priestley said she drives 'this road everyday. She said therf, would be a sign posted stating this is a school zone; She was in favor of the permit. She said if need be different classes could start at different times so all the cars would not be there at the same time. jan Campbell said she was not there to debate the quality of the school, but was concerned about noise, traffic, and night programs.

Peter Corinakas said he is a teacher at the school and was in favor of the Use Permit, He said this is an ideal site for their school. Ms. Kenyon said the staff's analysisstates this is compatible and the problems have been addressed and mitigated. She said there will be no increase of the proposed staff size. SHO s� Id the circular driveway will help with thA traffic problems; Commissioner Lambert asked if the purchase of this property is contingent upon the approval of this use permit, Ms. Kenyon said yes, but the ejcrow is running out on the property. The hearing was closed, Commissioner Lynch said the Commission needs to be clear that there is a limitation of 60 peopl- if the permit is approved. He said there is no way to mitigate the sewage requirement for public sewer, Commissioner Lambert said she shares the concerns of the neighbors regarding the speed' and danger of the traffic on West Lindo Road. She said she did not believe this was the only available site for the school, She said she was against granting this permit: t Commissioner Ostrowski said .lie was ambivalent about thiserini�;: p He agreed that this would. be a great site to go to school at and teach, but with the objections of the neighbors he cork' not find this use compatible with the surrounding neighborhood.

ANALYSIS: This project is a Use Permit request to operate a Montessori school: The project site -is located in a S -R zone and is designated by the .Butte County General Plan as Low Density Residential. The applicant proposes modifying ?ri existing older home to accommodate approximately A children as a Montessori school. The proposed homesite is approximately 1:3 acres large and lends itself well for a school setting. The project site is located within a suburban residential neighborhood in the Chico, Urban area. To the north and the west of the project site is Lindo Channel and West i1ndo ,Avenue, - Immediately south of the project site is the Almond Grove West Subr1ivis on. Properties to the ewA of the project site are single-family residential on larger acreage. The project site is rr;latively isolated due k-, subdivision design; roadway geometry, and the spacial 'relationship of Lindo Channel to the project site-. It is anticipated that potential conflicts between school activities and residential activities would be minimal due to the relative isolation: roee t site whirl was constructed inosed Montessori school 11g071ll iDue to the a ingle-family residential home on the p g he existing home, and the geologic history of the area, a structural inspection will be necessary to detjrmine the soundness and ability of the ,building to withstand a 6.0 or greater Ritcher magnitude on the earthquake scale. 2 BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF ]FINDINGS - July 5, 1990 In accordance with the Butte County Code Section 26-1 ,and the Uniform Building Code Section 502 which states "Any change in use ... upgrade and hazard .:. the building must meet or exceed the current building code requirements." Because -this building is no longer being uQed for residential purposes, rather a commercial endeavor, the building must meet the current b; iilding Codes of Butte County. In addition, in accordance with Section 307 of the Uniform Building Code entitled "Certificate of Occupancy" it is the responsibility of the new business proprietor to obtain an inspection and certificate from the Butte County Building Department in order to. occupy a once residential building for commercial purposes. The applicant proposes a Phase II plan which involves the addition of a pre-school on the project site. The applicant proposes to convert the existing garage for a pre-school. The time frame for adding the pre-school is two (2) plus years which exceeds the time limits for making improvements under a Use Permit allowed by Section 24-48.1 of the Butte County Zoning Code. Because the pre-school operation will not take place within the prescribed time limits of the code, it is recommended that only the montessori school be granted a permit at this time. A Negative Declaration with mitigation measures has been prepared for the proposed project in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act. No significant effects are anticipated from the proposed Use Permit.

Z appreciate the school's philosophy and Ms. Kenyon's management of and committment to the vohool. Further, Ms. Kenyon and I have agreed to be co-awners of the property at 1109 West Lindo Ave. I am investing not only in a lovely property, but in a positive and unique example of educational alternatives in Chicoe As co-owners of this prop. P�.`y, we have economic and emotional interests in carefully and respectfully maintaining the building and the grounds and the property's relationship within the neighborhood. We do not wish to make any, changes outside of those mandated to us by various state and local agencies that would diminish the quality of the property or neighborhood.

" However, if the overall nitrate loading from your proposed facility is examined, based upon a years usage, it can be shown that the nitrate loading for a school of 60 is actually equivalent to the regulatory requ� ement of a maximum of 334 gM acre -day averaged over a years usage. This is due to the fact that the school will be in operation for only approximately 180 days of a the year. Because the intent of the Nitrate Action Plan and Basin Plan Ammendment are to reduce nitrate loading to a level that will be protective of the area drinking Water aquifers, it is reasonable to use annual average nitrate loadings to determine when exemptions to the Basin Plan apply. Also, your particular usage i:� much easier to verify than many other usages would be (i.e., the number of students and the annual days of operation are easily verified), 1 Therefore we feel that a population of 60 at the school follows the spirit and letter of the Nitrate Action Plan and Basin plan Amendment and do not object to your request. Our approval is based upon a maximum student/staff of 60 and usage of the facility for no tPore than 182 days/per year. No usage in exces requirements of the Butte Count Ordinance and �m must follow all ather of these limits will be allowed, and your syst nes far waste disposal from septic tank leachfield the Regional Board n tha fin systems. We caution that final approval for your school cannot be granted until all pertinent waste disposal information for the site is known. In response to this letter,, there are two actions the county may take on your request, If the county decides to allow more than 30 student/staff, they will review your current waste disposal system to determine.if expansion of the system is necessary to accommodate the daily flows that will occur at the school. If expansion of the system is not necessary, no installation of new facilities will be required. Therefore the Basin Plan Amendment prohibition of new individual systems after 1 July 1990 would not apply as the current septic tank and leachfield !lready exist. If the county determines that added disposal facilities are needed, then the Basin Plan amendment would apply, However in accordance with the above paragraph, board staff feels that your school as proposed would be exompt from this prohibition, If you have any questions, please contact me at (9W 224-4858 or the address on_ the f, t age.- Ronald S.

(PILE AP 043-6`10-001) STRONGLY DISPUTE THE 'CONTENTION OF THE PLANNING STAFF THAT SUCH USAGE "WOULD NOT IMPAIR THE INTEGRITY OR, CHARACTER OF THE ZONE IN WHICH THE LAND LIES." THIS AREA HAS BEEN ZONED SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL SINCE 1970. EVEN PRIOR TO THAT THE LAND NOW KNOWN AS ALEXANDER GARDENS (1964) WAS SOLD TO THE DEVELOPER WITH STIPULATIONS THAT IT BE FOR SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCES ONLY, NO LIVESTOCK EXCEPT FOR HOUSEHOLD PETS, AND MINIMUM SQUARE FOOTAGE SIZE, TO ENSURE THAT THIS WOULD BE A DESIRABLE RESIDENTIAL AREA, FREE FROM COMMERCIAL ENCROACHMENT. IN REGARD TO OTHER AREAS OF THE NEI'GHBORHOOb NON -CONFORMING USES, SUCH As RAY SPEEGLE'S GUN SMITH SHOP, HAVE BEEN MOVED TO COMMERCIAL AREAS, SO THE SINGLE FAMILY INTEGRITY OF THE AREA HAS ACTUALLYBEEN IMPROVEDANDUPGRADED SINCE THE 1970 ZONING._ THE INTRODUCTION OF COMMERCIAL ENTERPRISES, PARTICLLARLY ONE ENTAILING A HIGH TRAFFIC FACTOR AND CONSIDERABLE NOISE IS GOING TO BA SERIOUS BACKWARD STEP IN THE QUALITY OF THE LIFE OF THE RESIDENTS OF THE AREA. CERTAINLY MR. SPEEGLE, A$ A LONG TIME RESIDENT OF T -'E AREA, WOULD HAVE A5 GREAT A CLAIM TO MOVE HIS GUN SHOP BACK TQ ITS PRIOR SITE AS THE INTRODUCTION OF THIS PROPOSED PRIVATE SCHOOL. FURTHERMORE, THE HILLS (SELLERS OF THE PROPERTY) WERE PREVIOUSLY DENIED PERMISSION TO SPLIT THEIR 1.3 ACRES BECAUSE IT WOULD RESULT IN AN IRREGULAR LOT SHAPE TO THE DETRIMENT OF THL NEIGHBORHOOD IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THE PROPOSED USE IS FAR MORE DETRIMENTAL THAN A PECULIAR LOT. FURTHERMORE, THERE SEEM TO BE SOME AMBIGUITY REGARDING THE SEPTIC TANK SITUATION. IS SEWER HOOKUP REQUIRED? CONDITION THREE SEEMS TO INDICATE SUCH. HOWEVER, THE REMARKS OF THE BUTTE COUNTY LNVIRONMENTAL HEALTH .C,lARTMENT WOULD SEEM To IMPLY THAT THERE ARE SOME OPTIONS (PAG /—'Or STAFF' FINDINGS). I SERIOUSLY QUESTION WHETHER A SEPTIC TANK SYSTEM DESIGNED FOR SINGLE FAMILY RES'Ibr-NOL COULD HANDLE THE EFFLUENT PRODUCED BY OVER SIXTY PERSONS, RELATED TO TH18 19 THAT THERE 18 NO REQUIREMENT THAT .,. s R BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION PAGE 2 THE SCHOOL CONNECT TO CALIFORNIA WATER SERVICE COMPANY, BUT CAN CONTINUE TO USE THE EXISTING WELL AS A WATER SOURCE. EVENIF THEY ARE REQUIRED TO CONNECT THERE ARE OTHERS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD WHO HAVE PRIVATE WELLS. IT MUST BE MADE CLEAR, THAT THE SEWER HOOKUP IS AN ABSOLUTE REQUIREMENT, FURTHER QUESTION WHETHER CONDITION N0. 12 IS ADEQUATE OR ENFORCEABLE. RIDE SHARING IS DIFFICULT TO ARRANGE, AND EASY' TO IGNORE IF INCONVENIENT. IT IS ALSO TOTALLY UNENFORCEABLE. NO SCHOOL CAN TELL A PARENT THAT THEY CANNOT BRING THEIR CHILD TO SCHOOL 'PERSONALLY. I QUESTION WHETHER A PRIVATE SCHOOL, DEPENDENT UPON TUITION TO EXIST, WOULD RISK ALIENATING THEIR CLIENTS BY EVEN ATTEMPTING TO DO SO. A VIABLE BUS SERVICE WOULD BE THE ONLY WAY IN WHICH THE TRAFFIC MATTER COULD BE EFFECTIVELY MITIGATED. WEST LfN.DO AVENUE 18 A RATHER NARROW, WINDING ROAD AND CANNOT SAFELY HANDLE MUCH ADDITIONAL TRAFFIC. FURTHERMORE, ACCESS TO WEST LINDO AVENUE FROM THE NORTH IS EITHER BY THE CUSSICK AVENUE OR GUYNN AVENUE BRIDGES, BOTH OF WHICH ARE SINGLE LANE BRIDGES. ALSO WISH TO EXPRESS' CONCERN REGARDING THE FINANCIAL ABILITY OF THE APPLICANTS TO PROPERLY MAINTAIN THE PROPERTY SO THAT IT DOES NOT DETERIORATE. MAJOR LANDSCAPING CHANGES ARE REQLIRED BY THE USE PERMIT. WILL THE CHANGES PRESENT AN APPEARANCE THAT IS EQUALLY ESTHETIC? MRS. HILL HAS BEEN INFORMED BY THE BUYER'S AGENT THAT SUFFICIENT FUNDS HAVE BEEN PLACED IN ESCROW TO MEET THE CONDITIONS OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION. HAS EVIDENCE OF THIS BEEN PRESENTED TO THE COMMISSION? NEITHER ARE THERE ANY ASSI,RANCES IN THE USE PERMITTHAT THIS PROPOSED OPERATION WOULD NOT, AT SOME FUTURE DATE, BE EXPANDED TO A YEAR-ROUND SCHOOL. DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS, OUTDOOR LIVING IS A PART OF OUR WAY OF LIFE. THE NOISE CREATED BY SIXTY PLUS CHILDREN WOULD CERTAINLY INFLICT A HARDSHIP ON THE CLOSE NEIGHBORS, LESSENING THE ENJOYMENT OF THEIR HOMES, LASTLY, IN VIEW OF THE LARGE NUMBER OF SINGLE CAR ACCIDENTS MOST OF WHICH ARE PROBABLY UNREPORTED, BUT MRS. HILL HERSELF CAN ATTEST TO THIS) THAT HAVE OCCURRED ON THIS SHARD TURN, THE MO�-,T SEVERE IN THE ENTIRE LENGTH OF WEST LINDO AVENUE,, I QUESTION THE DESIRABILITY OF CONGREGATING SIXTY PLUS SMALL CHILDREN ON THIS SiTE.

VERY TRULY YOURS �. CHARLLS H. ALEXAND� a am directing this letter to you because r will be unable to attend the hearing scshieduled for auxy '26, at 10:30 a.m. in Oroville. I am adamantly opposed to the placement of a Montessori school at the location referrenced above and would, like my concerns to be heard by you. the subject property in question is currently utilized as a residence. All properties surrounding the subject property Are also utilized as residences. No commercial establishments, churches, educational institutions, or other' busin"es"ses whatsoever are operated in the immediate area. EWEN[ Y �t,...., West Undo Avenue is a two lane asphalt surface roadway which travels generally parallel to East Avenue in a east/west direction. west Lindo Avenue is narrow and windy in spots; the subject prdperty is located adjacent to a radical turn in Weet Lindo The street is only patched with short segments'of sidewalk on the south side of the street, yet because of the attractiveness of the Undo Channel, a great deal of pedestrian traffic occurs in the morning and evening hours. West Lando Avenue is intersected by two streets from the north which provide access ultIAmately to East Avenue. These two streets, Guynn Avenue and Cussick Avenue, both cross the channel with very narrow bridges which provide no pedestrian protection whatsoever. The bridges are so narrow so as to effectively preclude the use by two vehicles traveling in opposite directions at the same time. As S understand it the 'Chico Unified School bistrict contemplates a shift in attendance boundaries which would dramatically increase the number of children traveling through the West Lindo Avenue area beginning in the fall of 1909- Yn addition to the normal adult pedestrian traffic, a number of elementary ,school children from age 6 through 12 will be walking and riding bikes through the area. ,_ � _ ..1 x,,.717 °'. C• n in nay discussions with Paula Kenyon, the operator of this school, who T understand is the applicant in this matter, she told me that she expected to have betwean 60 and S© students when in full operation. She made a point several times that the large number of cars which are expected to be dropping j off and picking up children would be facilitated by the circular driveway on the subject property. Since Mrs. Kenyan 7 rand picking expects alar a number of cars 'to be dropping of _ p g P g P Up children, I thank it's reasonable to assume that we should also expect an increase volume of traffic due to the location of the proposed facility at this site, ,Further, Mrs. Kenyon assurred me that 60 to 80 children, if I roperly supervised and located, would not significantly increase the noise levels noticed by property owners of contiguous properties or other neighbors in the area. i Having attended a number of elementary school functions and visited a number of classrooms, I take little solace in Mrs. Kenyon's assurrance that 6o to '80 children won't make any noise. In a neighborhood which is 100% residential with no commercial enterprise, the noise level at present is extremely low. The addition of that number of children to a confined area on a regular basis would most assuredly increase the noise levels of the neighborhood dramatically. It is for these rea s: I. The increased vehicular traffic on West Lindo Avenue and intersecting streets which is far beyond that which was contemplated in the original design Z The obvious significant danger to 4 0*3dAstrians caused _... by this increased vehicular traffic, coupled with the contemplated increase of juvenile pedestrian traffic creating a dangerous situation; 3. The dramatic increase in noise level for the adjacent and surrounding neighbors. d' RD: MONTESSORI SCHOOL 1109 West Lindo ;*,venue Chico, California Job No. °0-093 ATTN Mro Brent Moore Dear Brent: On Monday, July 23, 1590, I made an inspection of the home located at 1109 West Lindo Avenue. This inspection was to ascertain if the building was suseptible to damage from an earthquake. A review of the foundation revealed that there were no anchor bolts from the foundation to the wall. It is my opinion that it would not be too difficult to install anchor, bolts or hold downs to anchor the building to the foundation, if there are any further questions I can answpL in this matter, please do._ not hesitate to let me know: Very truly yours, Ci Wi BACHMAN CWB:Jb ENGINEERING SURVEYING PLANNING DESIGNING 3012 The tEsplanade, Ohiao, 0016rhki 0692 Teifephonet (916) 342.4136 r 7777�,igVVV��� Yy� ti K t d Buff Okm*� l�reville, Califoiin� <<,(;rt, Xt►al:l ca Ca;Y►.>t'1'Ly I'`:L+:allrt;l:rYti S►t?I;a�:ar'lht�!17 [', it 'l twrtllrt�y t:(�+rt`t<car` X:IY`;i.v Glrr?v.>;i.�.c+v 'C.:�.a �Ia►i�r'>'i LFA'>;aitaY`:L :1Y'y 1'l e t.r) cat`f (�1� ular >a>lara(aY'l, t.t) l.h I'1,+;arY1� I.rlrl XIt�Ia+:an`Lmt r1 L''cs ;� would IiKv," +;? 11�,it� LYt'�Y`IIYI G •�/('a trl'if. ��t;Yl'1'�rG"'.tfiCaY`:I. � 1'cwt CYIlYi11t�11ct+7 �.
