The Butte County Fire Department requires compliance with State Fire Marshall requirements for large day care facilities. 3. The harmful effect, if any, upon desirable neighborhood character: The proposed large day care facility will not change the traditional architectural style that is of a character consistent with an urban residential neighborhood. The large day care facility will not lead to any significant increase in noise levels due to children playing outside or significant increase in vehicle traffic. 4. The generation of traffic and the capacity and physical character of surrounding streets: ■ BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING SERVICES MEETING ■ MINUTES ■ SEPTEMBER 12, 2002 ■ PAGE 2 ■ The proposed large day care facility will not significantly increase vehicle traffic in the area, nor will it create any vehicle circulation impacts. 5. The suitability of the site for the type and intensity of use or development which is proposed: The site has adequate area for off-site parking spaces for the residents of the dwelling and for employees of the large family day care facility. There is also adequate parking for an off-street loading area. 6. Any other relevant impact of the proposed use: The Planning Division has circulated the proposed large family day care facility application to County agencies and has received no evidence that the use will cause any other relevant impact. C. The proposed location, size, design, and operating characteristics of the proposed use and the conditions under which it would be operated or maintained will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity: D. The proposed use will comply with each of the applicable provisions of the Chapter 24, Section 265, of the Butte County Code. Conditions of Approval: I .

The property is located on the north side of Lindo Lane, approximately 170 feet east of Pillsbury Road at 764 Lindo Lane, Chico. APN 007-072-014 (CBS) (MUP 02-20) Stephen Betts gave a brief summary of the project and why it was continued. He submitted a letter received from Mary Anna Ekman dated August 12, 2002, who was concerned with the increase in children and objected to this permit. He discussed a letter from the State Community Care Licensing Division stating that a day care can be called a school. The hearing was opened to the public. Jim McKenzie said that the hours will be less for this request than a regular day care facility and he did not understand the neighbors concerns. Mr. Betts said that Ms. Ekman was concerned with there being a morning session with 12 children and then an afternoon session with a different set of children. Clara McKenzie said that there will be children who are only there in the morning because their parent works part time and there will be children there all day and sometimes there will be an overlap of children for one to one and a half hours in the middle of the day. She said that is the reason for the request for a large day care facility in order to be flexible if there is an overlapping of children. She discussed taking down her sign to try to appease the neighbors. She said that if this is approved she would add to the sign "a family child care home." She agreed to the conditions. Mr. McKenzie said that he had spoken with Mr. and Mrs. Ekman and was told that the Ekmans had no problem with this request, and now they send in a letter stating the opposite. Mrs. McKenzie said that she contacted Mr. Bain after the meeting and not Mrs. Ekman. She said that Mr. Bain was concerned that the property was being rezoned and she assured Mr. Bain that was not the case. The hearing was closed. Mr. Breedon concurred with staff's recommendation to recommend approval of the Minor Use Permit for Clara McKenzie subject to the findings and conditions listed below: I. Find that the application is not a project as defined by CEQA. II. Recommend approval to the Planning Commission for a 'Minor Use Permit for Clara McKenzie for a large family day care facility for 12 or fewer children, MUP 02-20, on APN 007-072-014, based on the following findings and the conditions found in Exhibit "A": A. The location, size, design, and operating characteristics of the proposed use will be compatible with, and will not adversely affect, or be detrimental to adjacent uses, residents, buildings, structures, or natural resources, with consideration given to: ■ BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING SERVICES MEETING ■ MINUTES ■ AUGUST 21, 2002 ■ PAGE 1 ■ 1 Harmony in scale, bulk, coverage, and density: The project is in harmony with scale, bulk, coverage, and density because the large family day care facility will not create a need for any new structures or an alteration to any existing structures. 2. The availability of public facilities, services, and utilities: The large day care facility will not create a need for new public facilities, services, and utilities because water, telephone, gas, and electrical services already extend to the project parcel. The project site is provided with municipal water and existing septic facilities. The Butte County Fire Department requires compliance with State Fire Marshall requirements for large day care facilities. The harmful effect, if any, upon desirable neighborhood character: The proposed large day care facility will not change the traditional architectural style that is of a character consistent with an urban residential neighborhood. The large day care facility will not lead to any significant increase in noise levels due to children playing outside or significant increase in vehicle traffic. 4. The generation of traffic and the capacity and physical character of surrounding streets: The proposed large day care facility will not significantly increase vehicle traffic in the area, nor will it create any vehicle circulation impacts. The suitability of the site for the type and intensity of use or development which is proposed: The site has adequate area for off-site parking spaces for the residents of the dwelling and for employees of the large family day care facility. There is also adequate parking for an off-street loading area. 6. Any other relevant impact of the proposed use: The Planning Division has circulated the proposed large family day care' facility application to County agencies and has received no evidence that the use will cause any other relevant impact. C. The proposed location, size, design, and operating characteristics of the proposed use and the conditions under which it would be operated or maintained will not be. detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. ■ BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING SERVICES MEETING ■ MINUTES ■ AUGUST 21, 2002 ■ PAGE 2 ■ D. The proposed use will comply with each of the applicable provisions of the Chapter 24, Section 265, of the Butte County Code. Conditions of Approval: 1. The facility is a single family residence that shall be the principal residence of the provider and the large day care facility shall be clearly incidental and secondary to the use of the property for residential purposes. 2. Minimum off-street parking shall be provided pursuant to the following standards: (a) Two (2) off-street parking spaces for the residents of the dwelling. (b) One (1) off-street parking space for each employee. The two (2) required residential spaces may not be used for employees. (c) One (1) off-street parking space/loading area. 3. One sign, not to exceed 3 square feet, is allowed. This sign shall not be placed in the front yard building setback. 4. The large family day care home shall be licensed by the California Department of Social Services, Community Care Licensing. 5. The day care structure shall meet all California Building Code regulations pertaining to large family day care facilities, including, but not limited to, the installation of smoke detectors, a device for sounding alarm, fire extinguishers, and exit doors operable from the inside without the use of a key or any special knowledge or effort. 6. Prior to use of the large day care, the facility shall be inspected by the Butte County Fire Department/CDF and the State Fire Marshal and shall meet the requirements of CCR Title 19. 7. Prior to issuance of the Minor Use Permit, applicant shall obtain any necessary building permits required by code. 8. The capacity of the Large Family Day Care facility may be increased to 14 children when the Butte County Code is amended to conform to the State statute. 9. Applicant must also comply with all other applicable State and local statutes, ordinances, and regulations. ■ BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING SERVICES MEETING ■ MINUTES ■ AUGUST 21, 2002 ■ PAGE 3 ■ Clara McKenzie (Item determined to be categorically exempt from environmental review), Minor Use Permit for a large family day care facility on property zoned R-1 (Residential). The property is located on the north side of Lindo Lane, approximately 170 feet east of Pillsbury Road at 764 Lindo Lane, Chico. APN 007-072-014 (CBS) (MUP 02-20) Stephen Betts gave a brief summary of the project noting that several letters were submitted in support and opposition of the project. The letters objecting to the project expressed concerns regarding increases in traffic and noise. The hearing was opened to the public. Clara McKenzie said that she sent a letter to all the parents to sign. In this letter, she asked parents to drive carefully down Lindo Lane and keep their children quiet while dropping them off and picking them up. She also said that she is planning to have a few more children so she can afford to hire an aide. She assured staff that she has informed the neighbors of her plans. She concluded that she can easily park eight vehicles on her property if necessary. Mark Bain said that there would be an impact to the level of the traffic. He also said that a number of the neighbors feel that the added traffic would be a problem. He remarked that the area has one of the nicest, tree -lined streets in Chico. In addition, he noted that the people speeding on Lindo Lane are a hazard to the children who live on the street. He concluded that people use Lindo Lane as a short cut which adds to the traffic. ' Mr. Meleka asked the applicant about the potential for the number of children arriving at the same time. Ms. McKenzie answered only one or two would arrive at the same.ti`me. Mr. Bain said that he is concerned with the character of the neighborhood. He said that 12 out of thirty residents are retired. He asked that the number be limited to the capacity of only 8 or 10. Joe Gabski was opposed to this project because of adding to the septic system. He remarked that he was denied adding a third bedroom because of the capacity of his septic system. Amel Akman submitted a letter indicating a conversation he had with Craig Sanders. He said that he likes to see people succeed, but there are conflicts with noise and traffic with type of use. He asked if the subject property was going to be a school or a day care. Ms. McKenzie said that the license allows her to call the proposed day care a school and have a school type curriculum. She also said that she would follow a school type schedule with morning and afternoon session. Monday through Friday only. Mr. Ekman commented that in Title XI, firearms are not allowed within 1000 of a day care facility and asked about the neighbors who own firearms. Ms. McKenzie explained that Title XI refers to her having weapons and that the weapons must be locked away from the children. She added that the children would be pre-school age and the day care can be called by any choice of name she chooses. She concluded that she wants the permit for up to 12 children. Mr. Meleka said that he would need more information to confirm if calling the project a school makes a ■ BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING SERVICES MEETING ■ MINUTES — JULY 24, 2002 0 PAGE 1 ■ difference in approving the permit. He asked whether Ms. McKenzie is willing to communicate with her neighbors with regard to the number of children and other issues to come up with a mutually agreeable solution. Ms. McKenzie and the neighbors answered positively. The meeting was continued open to August 21, 2002, at 9:00 a.m. ■ BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING SERVICES MEETING ■ MINUTES - JULY 24, 2002 ■ PAGE 2 ■ Butte County Department of Development Services Administration - AR 7 County Center Drive Oroville, CA 95965 (530) 538-7601 Telephone { REVISED INVOICE• Minor Use Permit Applicant: Clara McKenzie 764 Lindo Lane Chico, CA 95973 File: MUP D2-20 APN: 007-072-014, Date: January 3, 2003 Deposit Date: May 22, 2002 Deposit Amount: $485.00- 485:00'Receipt: Receipt:20532 Deposit Disbursement: Environmental Health $ 92.00 Land Development CDF/Fire Department $ 43.00 DEVELOPMENT SERVICES - PLANNING $ 350.00 Payment Date: Payment Amount: $ Receipt: Payment Date: Payment Amount: $ - Receipt: TOTAL PAYMENTS: $, - N V 0 1 C E MUP 02-20.2 Planning charges are captured in arrears.

It appears you have logged 1 hr in initially setting up the files on 5/25 (a Saturday — your timesheet records 5/28, a Tuesday), and you have also logged another 2 hours on 6/8 (a Saturday — your timesheet records 6/12, a Wednesday). 1. When logging billing entries into Timeslips, enter the actual day the work was performed. It should match the date/day that you logged on your timesheet. It appears the first day of the pay period, normally a Saturday, has been entered in the past. It is important that we be both accurate and credible. . 2. For some reason, your timesheet is missing from the payroll files for the 13th pay period. Please work with Cheryl to rectify this. If you two cannot find the original, we'll have to use a certified copy. 3. Since a question has come up on this bill, can you explain/justify the 2 hour block of time recorded on this project on 6/12? My review of the file with Lynn didn't give us any clue as to why additional time, aside from the initial set-up time would have been spent on this project. It appears some comment letters were generated on 6/12, but Lynn indicates those letters are normally part of the file set-up and would have been included in the initial 1 hour you recorded for that purpose. 4. Since we have been questioned quite a bit lately, perhaps we will need to enter information as to what tasks clerical may be performing in relation to the file — set up, copying, etc. Deborah DeBrunner Administrative Analyst III Department of Development Services (530)538-7464 538-7785 Fax 12/2/2002 0..

Planner: Craig Sanders Parcel Size: 0.29 acre Zone date: August 19, 1980 Supervisor District: #3 Attachments: A: Vicinity Map B: General Plan/Zoning Map C. Public Notice Map D: Site Plan Staff recommends approval of the Minor Use Permit with conditions. PROJECT DESCRIPTION/SITE CHARACTERISTICS: This is a proposal to expand a family day care facility from 6 children to 12 children with the provision that 14 children may be permitted when the Butte County Zoning Ordinance is changed to reflect current State Law. Per Butte County Zoning Code Section 24-265(b)(2), large -family day care homes may have up to twelve (12) children. The current state law has limits of eight (8) children for small day care and fourteen (14) for large family day care centers. The County Code has not been changed to reflect these new limits. This proposal is being processed under the existing County Code and at such time as the code is revised to the new state standards, the limits on the allowed number of children may be administratively adjusted for existing small and large child care centers. The project site is located at 764 Lindo Lane in the Chico area. The parcel is developed with a single family home, approximately 1124 square feet in size, on an urban sized residential lot of approximately 0.34 acre. The property has a 6 -foot high fencing completely around the child care area. The project is in a neighborhood characterized by urban residential development. There are similar sized parcels bordering the property. Parcel sizes range from 0.25 -acre to 0.45 -acre. Access to the dwelling is from 0 BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING MANAGER 0 AGENDA REPORT ■ PAGE 1 0 0 • Lindo Lane a paved, County maintained, road. Domestic water is supplied by Cal Water. The dwelling has a septic system. The applicant lives in the residence and is currently the primary care provider. With approval for a large day care facility, the applicant proposes to have as many as twelve (12) children, with two additional full-time employees. ANALYSIS: The property is zoned R-1 (Residential) and has a General Plan land use designation of LDR (Low Density Residential). The R-1 zoning classification allows large family day care facilities with approval of a Minor Use Permit and subject to the requirements of Section 24-265 of the Zoning Code. The General Plan states that the Primary Use of the Low Density Residential land use designation is single family homes at urban densities. Secondary Uses include group quarters and care homes. Butte County Code Section 24-265(e)(2) requires that new large family day care facility be located at least 500 feet driving distance from any other large family day care center. Staff conducted an analysis of the location of other large family day care centers in the area of the project and determined that there are no other similar facilities within the 500 -foot driving distance. This facility will not cause any residence to be bounded on more than one side with a large family day care center. There is sufficient area for off-street parking for the residents of the dwelling, one or more employees, and drop-off and pick-up of children. Located on a fairly quiet residential street, the location provides a measure of traffic safety during drop-off and pick-up times. The property has two driveways with adequate capacity to provide the required parking spaces including a parking area in the rear of the lot. The Butte County Environmental Health Department recommends approval with a condition that the applicant shall maintain the septic system in compliance with Butte County ordinance. The Butte County Fire Department requires standard conditions to comply with Public Resources Code 4290. Currently, there is an existing small family day care facility at this location. The expansion will result in a minor change in traffic to the location. However, as previously noted, Lindo Lane and the surrounding streets do not carry large traffic volumes and the increase is not expected to create a significant problem. CEQA ISSUES: Family day care facilities are by definition a use that is accessory to the residential use on-site. Residential uses are a permitted use in the zone, are not subject to discretionary review, and are exempt from CEQA review. The Commission's discretion in these applications is limited to reviewing the application for compliance with local regulations. If the application meets the local ordinance, the Commission must approve the application. No further discretion is allowed. Because the project is defined as an accessory residential use and discretion in approving the project is essentially ministerial, the project is not subject to CEQA review. ACTIONS FOR CONSIDERATION Staff recommends that the Planning Manager take the following actions: Find that the application is not a project as defined by CEQA. 0 BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING MANAGER 0 AGENDA REPORT 0 PAGE 2 0 II. Recommend approval to the Planning Commission for a Minor Use Permit for Clara McKenzie for a large family day care facility for 12 or fewer children, MUP 02-20, on APN 007-072-014, based on the following findings and the conditions found in Exhibit "A": A. The location, size, design, and operating characteristics of the proposed use will be compatible with, and will not adversely affect, or be detrimental to adjacent uses, residents, buildings, structures, or natural resources, with consideration given to: Harmony in scale, bulk, coverage, and density: The project is in harmony with scale, bulk, coverage, and density because the large family day care facility will not create a need for any new structures or an alteration to any existing structures. 2. The availability of public facilities, services, and utilities: The large day care facility will not create a need for new public facilities, services, and utilities because water, telephone, gas, and electrical services already extend to the project parcel. The project site is provided with municipal water and existing septic facilities. The Butte County Fire Department requires compliance with State Fire Marshall requirements for large day care facilities. 3. The harmful effect, if any, upon desirable neighborhood character: The proposed large day care facility will not change the traditional architectural style that is of a character consistent with an urban residential neighborhood. The large day care facility will not lead to any significant increase in noise levels due to children playing outside or significant increase in vehicle traffic. 4. The generation of traffic and the capacity and physical character of surrounding streets: The proposed large day care facility will not significantly increase vehicle traffic in the area, nor will it create any vehicle circulation impacts. 5. The suitability of the site for the type and intensity of use or development which is proposed: The site has adequate area for off-site parking spaces for the residents of the dwelling and for employees of the large family day care facility. There is also adequate parking for an off-street loading area. 6. Any other relevant impact of the proposed use: The Planning Division has circulated the proposed large family day care facility application to County agencies and has received no evidence that the use will cause any other relevant impact. 0 BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING MANAGER 0 AGENDA REPORT ■ PAGE 3 ■ 0 • C.

I am also writing because ofa telephone conversation I had with Lynne in your office on August 7. She, informed, rne-that it is not the county's policy to notify neighbors'of this second hearing despite the fact that it appears to be dealing with an issue somewhat different from that.of the rst-hearing. Asa result, I feel the Planning Department may not be aware ofneighbor•s°�¢eel'it3gs•,regarding the presence of an enlarged preschool in their neighborhood. The issue at hand now is to determine whether Clara McKenzie's facility should be classified as a preschool or as a large family day care facility. I enclose material Clara McKenzie provided me.

It appears to me that Clara McKen7le's school is. indeed. diff rent f-om the average day care. facility. She clearly intits her hours so ;:hat she is open only from 8:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. She also indicates that there is a difference in enrollment in the morning and the afternoon. This facility obviously is not set up to serve parents who must work full time. For this reason, I question whether this facility should be entitled to the kind of protection the state provides facilities which are open sufficient hours for parents who must work 40 or more hours a week. Ms. McKenzie's facility appears to be serving a more affluent population which has at least one parent free to pick up and deliver children. during the middle part of the day and, perhaps, even to care for them when they are nolir attending The Acorn Montessori School. Also, the purpose of her school appears to be educating young chil re ra-h e(I than providing group baby-sitting. h rc E U v� E ` L AUJ :.0 i r; t'. ,• '}a III i_....._._ .... Page 2 Yvonne Christopher August 12, 2002 The Acorn Montessori School appears to have two sessions available to its students. What this means to the neighbors is additional traffic. The school may be limited to no more than 12 children at one time. However, it is certainly possible that enrollment could be as high as 24 children with 12 children attending a morning shift and 12 children attending an afternoon shift. This is, to me, a significant amount of traffic since I live directly across the street from the school: It is my understanding that the McKenzie's were advised in the hearing held on July 24 that they should contact neighbors to attempt to reach a compromise on the number of students enrolled at the school. To date, I have not heard from either of the McKenzie's regarding such a compromise. Before it makes a final decision, the Planning Department must determine whether the McKenzie Montessori school is a school or a large family day care facility. If it is a school, do the same government. codes apply to both preschools and large family day care facilities? Sincerely, Mary Anna Ekman, MPA i i i AUG 1 3 21n2. j ' 16 July 2002 Dear Neighbor, ' We are Jim and Clara McKenzie, homeowners at 764 Lindo Lane, .and proprietors of the.Acorn Montessori School, also at that address. It has come to our attention that there is a concerted effort to block our application for a minor use permit from Butte County to.expand our license. It greatly saddens us that no one has approached us directly with any questions or concerns about our school or our request for the expanded license. Rather, they have taken measures to defeat our request without informing us of their intentions. Please consider these facts regarding the nature of our school and our reasons for requesting the expanded license. • The school hours are from 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM. Parents usually arrive within a half-hour window of time rather than all at once, between 8:30 to 9:00, for instance. • Children play in the backyard for about 40 minutes before noon and about 40 minutes after 1:00 PM. • The current license limits us to not more than six preschool aged children in our home at any time. • Because we have two young daughters of our own, we have no more than four paying students at a time. This translates into a gross earning potential (with full enrollment) of about $16 per hour. With the low afternoon enrollment, expenses, and self-employment tax on top of income tax this translates into very little net income. • Due to the logistics of scheduling, our school_ currently has the full capacity of six students (including our children) only two mornings a week. Since parents prefer mornings, the afternoons typically have only one or two paying students. Attendance in the afternoons is unlikely to increase much with the expanded. license.. , • Jim isnot a teacher in our school, and Clara is the only teacher.'The nature of the instruction and supervision of the students is such that it is more work and stress than Clara should have to manage alone. • With a current average-gross'monthly income from the school of less than $1,300, we cannot afford to hire an aid. • An aid is necessary to help with supervision, instruction, activities, and addressing individual student's needs. During the brief outdoor intervals, two adults would better manage the children's noise level. An aid will allow Clara the flexibility to speak with parents, take important phone calls, or carryout some other necessary activity that prevents her from being able to devote her full attention to teaching and supervision. This would increase the quality of education we can provide, and greatly reduce her stress level. • We hope that the expanded license would allow us to expand to a total of six to eight paying students in the mornings, hire an aid, accommodate more flexibility in scheduling, and provide a more classroom -like environment for the children. • Our immediate nei hbors have voiced their acceptance and support to us regarding the 9 P PP 9 9 S� expansion. • We predict the impact on traffic would be to add two to four cars during pick-up or drop-off intervals, and we have plenty of parking available. Please consider if the the current two , I? to four cars has really been a problem, or is even noticeable. • The expansion of the license will not change the outer appearance of our home in any way. • At this time, the school is our family's primary source of income. Jim is completing coursework to become a music teacher in the public school system. His prospects for teaching locally are quite good. We like Chico very much; and hope to stay. • We have included an informative mailer about the Acorn Montessori School, and invite you to come to observe and meet us if you have any further concerns. We understand a petition is circulating in protest to our application for the expanded license. We ask only that you consider the facts about our school and our plans before you sign the petition. If you have signed the petition already, we ask that you reconsider your position based on the facts we have presented. If, after reading our side of the argument, you feel supportive, we would greatly appreciate a written letter expressing your support. We don't want to create a problem for the neighborhood. We just want to be able to make a living that is satisfying and consistent with our vocational aspirations. Please consider that if we are granted the expansion, there will likely be little or no difference to the quality of your life. But, denial of the expansion will have a profoundly negative impact on ours. Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter. Sincerely, your neighbors, Jim and Clara McKenzie 8943323 M 8 July 2002 r� - Dear Neighbor, `� � g �1� We are writing this letter to apologize for the great m' rstandin jwhich has occurred_about our request for a minor use permit. We realize that it was a laps ' good judgment o r part not -to inform the neighborhood about our plan to add a few _F re— ents'and to hire a aid. a are very sorry for that The actual changewas relatively we planned minor; and perhaps we med thadno one would even notice the change. We also want you to know how we appreciate the way this community has come together to protect its integrity. The letter of protest that recently circulated was based -on incorrect information given by ftt -__ county office. Upon reading the letter, we were greatly shocked and dismayed as it implies that we plan to-estabfisha-large-commercial daycare center. That is very different from the family chime home__ we have. We understand your outrage to this, and wish to assure you that the minor use permit'alk ws nothing of that sort. Califomia licensing laws do not allow a family childcare home to exceed 14 children, and leave the actual number up to each county. Current Butte County code does not allow for more than 12 at any one time. The permit allows no other changes to our home or property. It is not a request for commercial rezoning. It is considered a fair secondary use in a residential neighborhood with R-1 zoning. Please know that it is not our intent even to maintain the maximum allowable number of students for the following reasons. We have two children .of our own. They must be included in the total. If we were to have 10 children present plus our own two, there could never be any other children present. Our kids could never have a friend come over, and our relatives could not visit with their children during school hours (8:30 AM - 3:30 PM). With our current limit of four students plus our two children, we cannot have any additional children present, neither friends nor family. Also, because of the logistics of scheduling, it is impossible to maintain a full capacity on a daily basis.sThese reasons have-made.us� decide to not exceed eight children plus our own, on a regular basis. Enrollment in the afternoons is certain to be significantly fewer than eight since parents prefer mommgs. Because:the Acorn,Montessori'School'is a preschool.and not a daycare,,we have imposed'a 'thfurther -restriction of keeping to the hours of 8:30. AM to 3:30. PM. In regard to.traffic, we have requested that the parents: drive respectably, park in our driveways rather than on the street whenever possible, not allow their children to play in our front yard, and not to linger overlong to avoid any pileup of cars. As for noise, we believe that with a second adult present, it will be much easier to manage the volume level, even with a few more children. - Attached is a letter we wrote to everyone when we heard about the letter of protest, which we had not yet read for ourselves. Our letter describes in greater detail our plans and reasons for them. If you have any further concerns or questions, PLEASE feel free to call (894-3323) or just come by to speak with us personally. Lastly, we would like to say that we moved to this neighborhood two years ago because our house on Undo Lane was by far the nicest and the neighborhood the prettiest Chico had to offer. We want to stay, and will not do anything that jeopardizes the tranquility of the community. With all sincerity, Clara McKenzie and Jim McKenzie 7Jhe Acorn Montessori Schod Daily %ctivities TJhe Montessori CurricuCum The Acorn Montessori school is located in my home on Lindo Lane in Chico. I am licensed and insured (facility #45403110) for up to 8 children. I provide an environment where children can learn at their individual pace and •ability, and are encouraged to be independent, responsible, caring, and cooperative. The Montessori materials in my classroom prepare children for and motivate them toward intellectual, physical, social, and creative learning. There is a slight emphasis on Christian values and learning through books, songs, and study of science. We also focus on other cultures and countries so that the children can grow to understand the world around them. I have a deep respect for children and children's learning. I have been teaching preschool aged children since 1990 and I worked with older children before that. *All children are considered for enrollment without regard to race, religion,or national origin. Work gime: The children are free to use materials from the shelves and work by themselves or with other children. They may also paint at the easel, cut and glue paper, and do water play. I give lessons and assist the children in choosing and working with the materials. Snack'J time: The children sit at the table and pass around the snack which is provided by the school. Fruits, vegetables, cheese, crackers, etc. are served with juice or milk. Often, the children help prepare the snack. Grace is said before we eat. PCay `rime: The first part of outdoor playtime is spent In the gated driveway where the children ride wheel toys and play ball. Then we go to the shady lawn area which has a slide, swing set, sand box, and a play structure. On rainy. days the children play dress -ups or large movement games in the classroom. Occasionally, I take the children on neighborhood walks. group `rime: At the end of the morning we have a group time. We sing songs, use rhythm band instruments, read books, and do group lessons such as science, Bible stories, or geography. Once a week we have sharing day when each child can tell about an interesting experience or bring a special item from home. We end with a short prayer of thanks. Afternoon: After group time the children are dismissed to go home or to wash up for lunch. Children bring their lunches from home. Afterwards, we go outside for another playtime and then come in for a short group time and another work time. This is also nap time for those children who need to nap. Maria Montessori had a unique understanding of young children. Her educational method is based on her observations of children for who they are. Based on her understanding that children have a need to do purposeful work simply for the sake of the activity, rather than the completion of the job, she devised a total learning environment. This environment helps children gain self-respect and nurtures their natural desire to learn. It inspires the whole child by stimulating all five senses, teaching practical skills, language, math, geography and science, as well as music, art, and social skills. If you are interested in enrolling your child at The Acorn Montessori School, please call Clara McKenzie to arrange an observation and interview. (530) 566-1197 8:30am to 3:30pm weekdays. CCara Mc'Cenzie, Teacher I started working with young children in 1990 in a day care center in Chico. I moved to London, England in 1991 and studied at the St. Nicholas' Training Centre for the Montessori Method of Education while student - teaching at two preschools in London and working as an Au Pair for a London family with two small children. I returned to California in 1992 and taught preschool -aged children for five years at Buttons n' Bows Montessori School in Palo Alto. After my own child was born, I directed the Sunday School toddler program at the Vineyard of the Peninsula Church in Palo Alto until we Moved to Chico in 2000. 1 started The Acorn Montessori School in the fall of 2001. 1 have my Montessori Teaching Diploma from The St. Nicholas Centre in London, and my Early Childhood Education Certificate from Cahada College in Redwood City, CA.

As you are probably aware, Health and Safety Code Section 1597.46 specifies that local planning commissions cannot prohibit large family day care homes on single family zoned lots, but allows three options in these situations (see attachment.) I would encourage you to consider adoption of option 1, "permitted use" or option 2, °nondiscretionary permit." Over the last several years, the Child Care Advocate Program has worked with local zoning staff and large family day care providers throughout the state to establish or update local ordinances relative to LFDC. We have found that either option 1 or option 2 works well—depending on your community needs. We have also found that option 3, "conditional use permit' often acts as a barrier to providers who wish to expand their small family day care home to a large family day care home. The a reasons for this usually are: 1. high cost (often in the $1,000--$2,000 range) and 2. a long administrative process (including notification of neighbors and at least one hearing) The Child Care Advocate Program is committed to the development and'expansion,of quality;,licensed child care. Once again, I urge you to consider an option that will meet the zoning needs of your community as well as encourage experienced family day care providers to expand so that the critical need for child care can be met.

BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING DI\IISII during a limited time of day and do not require the attendance of a large number of employees and equipment. - (b) The uses of congregate care facilities are distinguishable from the uses of family day care homes operated under the standards of state law. For purposes of this section, a "congregate care facility" means a "residential facility," as defined in paragraph (1) of subdivision (a) of Section 1502. Congregate care facilities are used throughout the day and night, and the institutional uses of these facilities are primary uses of the facilities, not accessory uses, and draw a large number of employees, vehicles, and equipment compared to that drawn to family day care homes. (c) The expansion permitted for family day care homes by Sections 1597.44 and 1597.465 is not appropriate with respect to congregate care facilities, or any other facilities with quasi -institutional uses. I Therefore, with these provisions, the Legislature does not intend to alter the legal standards governing congregate care facilities and these provisions are not intended to encourage, or be a precedent for, changes in statutory and case law governing congregate care I acilities. § 1597.44.

Enforcement of these provisions shall be in accordance with Sections 13145 and 13146. No city, county, city and county, or district shall adopt or enforce any building ordinance or local role or regulation relating to the subject of fire and life safety in large family day care homes which is inconsistent with those standards adopted by the State Fire Marshal, except to the extent the building ordinance or local rule or regulation applies to single-family residences in which day care is not provided. (e) No later than April 1, 1984, the State Fire Marshal shall adopt the building standards required in subdivision (d) and any other regulations necessary to implement the provisions of this section. § 1597.465.

I am also writing because of a telephone conversation I had with Lynne in your office on August 7. She informed• me. -.that it is not the county's policy to notify neighbors of this second hearing despite the fact that it appears to be dealing with an issue somewhat different from that of the first hearing. As a result, I feel the Planning Department may not be aware of neighbors'-feel'ings'-regarding the presence of an enlarged preschool in their neighborhood. The issue at hand now is to determine whether Clara McKenzie's facility should be classified as a preschool or as a large family day care facility. I enclose material Clara McKenzie provided me. These are letters dated July 16, 2002, July 18, 2002, and a brochure entitled The Acorn Montessori School. It appears to' me that Clara McKenzie's school. is indeed. different. from the average day care facility. She clearly iiniits her hours .su .°gat she is open only from 8:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. She also indicates that there is a difference in enrollment in the morning and the afternoon. This facility obviously is not set up to serve parents who must work full time. For this reason, I question whether this facility should be entitled to the kind of protection the state provides facilities which are open sufficient hours for parents who must work 40 or more hours a week. Ms. McKenzie's facility appears to be serving a more affluent population which has at least one parent free to pick up and deliver children. during the middle part of the day and, perhaps, even to care for them when they are not attending The Acorn Montessori School. Also, the purpose of her school appears to be educating young chil re r e than providing group baby-sitting. til _� �_ Wj E �! _.1 Page 2 Yvonne Christopher August 12, 2002 The Acorn Montessori School appears to have two sessions available to its students. What this means to the neighbors is additional traffic. The school may be limited to no more than 12 children at one time. However, it is certainly possible that enrollment could be as high as 24 children with 12 children attending a morning shift and 12 children attending an afternoon shift. This is, to me, a significant amount of traffic since I live directly across the street from the school. It is my understanding that the McKenzie's were advised in the hearing held on July 24 that they should contact neighbors to attempt to reach a compromise on the number of students enrolled at the school. To date, I have not heard from either of the McKenzie's regarding such a compromise. Before it makes a final decision, the Planning Department must determine whether the McKenzie Montessori school is a school or a large family day care facility. If it is a school, do the same government codes apply to both preschools and large family day care facilities? Sincerely, Mary Anna Ekman, MPA E C 0 • Dear Neighbor, 16 July 2002 We are Jim and Clara McKenzie, homeowners at 764 Undo Lane, and proprietors of the Acorn Montessori School, also at that address. It has come to our attention that there is a concerted effort to block our application for a minor use permit from Butte County to'ezpand our license. It greatly saddens us that no one has approached us directly with any questions or concerns about our school or our request for the expanded license. Rather, they have taken measures to defeat our request without informing us of their intentions. Please consider these facts regarding the nature of our school and our reasons for requesting the expanded license. • The school hours are from 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM. Parents usually arrive within a half-hour window of time rather than all at once, between 8:30 to 9:00, for instance. • Children play in the backyard for about 40 minutes before noon and about 40 minutes after 1:00 PM. • The current license limits us to not more than six preschool aged children in our home at any time. • Because we have two young daughters of our own, we have no more than four paying students at a time. This translates into a gross earning potential (with full enrollment) of about $16 per hour. With the low afternoon enrollment, expenses, and self-employment tax on top of income tax this translates into very little net income. • Due to the logistics of scheduling, our school. currently has the full capacity of six students (including our children) only two mornings a week. Since parents prefer mornings, the afternoons typically have only one or two paying students. Attendance in the afternoons is unlikely to increase much with the expanded license. • Jim is not a teacher in our school, and Clara is the only teacher. The nature of the instruction and supervision of the students is such that it is more work and stress than Clara should have to manage alone. • With a current average gross monthly income from the school of less than $1,300, we cannot afford to hire an aid. • An aid is necessary to help with supervision, instruction, activities, and addressing individual student's needs. During the brief outdoor intervals, two adults would better E Cl manage the children's noise level. An aid will allow Clara the flexibility to speak with parents, take important phone calls, or carryout some other necessary activity that prevents her from being able to devote her full attention to -teaching and supervision. This would increase the quality of education we can provide, and greatly reduce her stress level. • We hope that the expanded license would allow us to expand to a total of six to eight paying students in the mornings, hire an aid, accommodate more flexibility in scheduling, and provide a more classroom -like environment for the children. • Our immediate neighbors have voiced their acceptance and support to us regarding the PPo 9 9 SO expansion. • We predict the impact on traffic would be to add two to four cars during pick-up or drop-off intervals, and we have plenty of parking available. Please consider if the the current two to four cars has really been a problem, or is even noticeable. • The expansion of the license will not change the outer appearance of our home in any way. • At this time, the school is our family's primary source of income. Jim is completing coursework to become a music teacher in the public school system. His prospects for teaching locally are quite good. We like Chico very much, and hope to stay. • We have included an informative mailer about the Acorn Montessori School, and invite you to come to observe and meet us if you have any further concerns. We understand a petition is circulating in protest to our application for the expanded license. We ask only that you consider the facts about our school and our plans before you sign the petition. If you have signed the petition already, we ask that you reconsider your position based on the facts we have presented. If, after*reading our side of the argument, you feel supportive, we would greatly appreciate a written letter expressing your support. We don't want to create a problem for the neighborhood. We just want to be able to make a living that is satisfying and consistent with our vocational aspirations. Please consider that if we are granted the expansion, there will likely be little or no difference to the quaiity of your life. But, denial of the expansion will have a profoundly negative impact on ours. Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter. Sincerely, your neighbors, Jim and Clara McKenzie 8943323 nA , w( 18 July 2002 Dear Neighbor, We are writing this letter to apologize for thegrew# m' rstandindwhic h has occurred about our request for a minor use permit. We realize that it was a laps' good judgment o r part not to inform the neighborhood about our plan to add a few more ents and to hire aid. a are very sorry for that The actual change we planned was relatively minor, and perhaps we med dug -no one would even notice the change. We also want you to know how we appreciate the way this community has come together to protect its integrity. The letter of protest that recently ckmdaWd was based on incorrect information given by f county office. Upon reading the letter, we were greatly shocked and dismayed as it implies that we plan to establish a large commercial daycare center. That is very different from the family childcanedwim we have. We understand your outrage to this, and wish to assure you that the minor use permit allows nothing of that sort. California licensing laws do not allow a family childcare home to exceed 14 children, and leave the actual number up to each county. Current Butte County code does not allow for more than 12 at any one time. The permit allows no other changes to our home or property. It is not a request for commercial rezoning. It is considered a fair secondary use in a residential neighborhood with R-1 zoning. Please know that it is not our intent even to maintain the maximum allowable number of students for the following reasons. We have two children of our own. They must be included in the total. If we were to have 10 children present plus our own two, there could never be any other children present. Our kids could never have a friend come over, and our relatives could not visit with their children during school hours (8:30 AM - 3:30 PM). With our current limit of four students plus our two children; we cannot have any additional children present, neither friends nor family. Also, because of the logistics of scheduling, it is impossible to maintain a full capacity on a daily basis. These reasons have made us decide to not exceed eight children plus our own, on a regular'basis. Enrollment in the afternoons is certain to be significantly fewer than eight since parents prefer momings. Because the Acorn Montessori School is a preschool and not a daycare, we have imposed a the further restric m of keeping to the hours of 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM. In regard to traffic, we have requested that the parents: drive respectably, park in our driveways rather than on the street whenever possible, not allow their children to play in our front yard, and not to linger overlong to avoid any pileup of cars. As for noise, we believe that with a second adult present, it will be much easier to manage the volume level, even with a few more children. Attached is a letter we wrote to everyone. when we heard about the letter of protest, which we had not yet read for ourselves. Our letter describes in greater detail our plans and reasons for them. If you have any further concerns or questions, PLEASE feel free to call (894-3323) or just come by to speak with us personally. Lastly, we would like to say that we moved to this neighborhood two years ago because our house on Lindo Lane was by far the nicest and the neighborhood the prettiest Chico had to offer. We want to stay, and will not do anything that jeopardizes the tranquility of the community. With all sincerity, Clara McKenzie and Jim McKenzie 7Jhe Acorn Montessori School Daily Activities ?'he Montessori Curriculum The Acorn Montessori school is located in my home on Undo Lane in Chico. I am licensed and insured (facility #45403110) for up to 8 children. I provide an environment where children can learn at their individual pace and •ability, and are encouraged to be independent, responsible, caring, and cooperative. The Montessori materials in my classroom prepare children for and motivate them toward intellectual, physical, social, and creative learning. There is a slight emphasis on Christian values and learning through books, songs, and study of science. We also focus on other cultures and countries so that the children can grow to understand the world around them. I have a deep respect for children and children's learning. I have been teaching preschool aged children since 1990 and I worked with older children before that. *All children are considered for enrollment without regard to race, religion,or national origin. Work gime: The children are free to use materials from the shelves and work by themselves or with other children. They may also paint at the easel, cut and glue paper, and do water play. I give lessons and assist the children In choosing and working with the materials. Snack dime: The children sit at the table and pass around the snack which is provided by the school. Fruits, vegetables, cheese, crackers, etc. are served with juice or milk. Often, the children help prepare the snack. Grace is said before we eat. Play 1I16e: The first part of outdoor playtime is spent In the gated driveway where the children ride wheel toys and play ball. Then we go to the shady lawn area which has a slide, swing set, sand box, and a play structure. On rainy days the children play dress -ups or large movement games in the classroom. Occasionally, I take the children on neighborhood walks. group Time: At the end of the morning we have a group time. We sing songs, use rhythm band instruments, read books, and do group lessons such as science, Bible stories, or geography. Once a week we have sharing day when each child can tell about an interesting experience or bring a special item from home. We end with a short prayer of thanks. Afternoon: After group time the children are dismissed to go home or to wash up for lunch. Children bring their lunches from home. Afterwards, we go outside for another playtime and then come in for a short group time and another work time. This is also nap time for those children who need to nap. Maria Montessori had a unique understanding of young children. Her educational method is based on her observations of children for who they are. Based on her understanding that children have a need to do purposeful work simply for the sake of the activity, rather than the completion of the job, she devised a total learning environment. This environment helps children gain self-respect and nurtures their natural desire to learn. It inspires the whole child by stimulating all five senses, teaching practical skills, language, math, geography and science, as well as music, art, and social skills. If you are interested in enrolling your child at The Acorn Montessori School, please call Clara McKenzie to arrange an ' observation and interview. (530) 566-1197 8:30am to 3:30pm weekdays.

Upon inspection of the Ekmans' letter (hear after referred to as "the letter"), and after speaking with the Ekmans, we have determined that the letter was based on the misinformation and misconception that we were seeking commercial rezoning to create a large commercial daycare center. In light of the truth, the Ekmans have changed their position on this issue, now support our plans, and say that they are writing a letter of retraction. We have since spoken with a number of our neighbors, some of whom signed the letter. Most were relieved to hear the true details. Some still have some concerns about traffic. One, who actually lead the crusade against us, refused to even listen to the true facts, clings to his misconceptions, and maintains that we are liars bent on destroying the neighborhood. Below is a point by point rebuttal of the letter. We ask that you consider their petition to be invalid since the individuals signing it had been misinformed and mislead regarding our application for Minor Use Permit, AP 007-072-014,#UP 02-20. We have included a copy of the letter so that you may cross reference our rebuttal. 1. The statements in point 1 are true. 2. The letter states that our house is small. At 1735 square feet (not counting the detached shop) on .34 acre, we do not consider our house or lot to be small. . Regarding noise, we predict that noise management actually will improve with the additional adult supervision. The letter states that the children make 'the usual noises that children at play make'. Since children are allowed in an R-1 neighborhood, their "usual noises" can hardly be used as an argument against us. Furthermore, there are several residences in our immediate area with noisy children. Perhaps their contributions to the noise level are being attributed to us. 3. We are, in fact, not experiencing a shortage of parking space. Our car that was parked across the street was clearly marked for sale, and was parked in front of 761 Lindo Lane (an unoccupied house) not the Ekmans house. We parked it there while we were in the process of selling it so that it would not be hit by our lawn sprinklers, which leave water spots. Our car was there for less than three weeks and was sold on 7/15/02. During pick up and drop off, parents exclusively park on our side of the street, and usually only our driveways are occupied. In a personal communication Mary Ekman said that they actually have and no problems entering or exiting their driveway due to the parents' cars. 4. The letter states that we plan to add "at least 12 more children" to the current enrollment. The Ekmans agree that they were misinformed about the type of permit we have requested. We will comply with all the conditions that the Minor Use Permit in Butte County requires, which currently states no more than 12 children at any one time. Also,your office is aware that we have a septic system, and we supplied the location of the leach lines. Your office has not indicated that this is a problem. 5. In this point, the letter states that we are requesting a zoning change. Clearly, we are not. It is our understanding that the minor use permit allows the establishment of a child care home under R-1 zoning and that is a permitted secondary use of a residential home. There is further speculation about commercial development and expansion of our school. This is impossible, as the license for 12 to 14 children is the state mandated limit on any Family Child Care Home. At the time that we found out about the letter, none of the neighbors had ever spoken to us about the concerns stated in the letter, or much of this confusion might have been avoided. After we found out about the petition from another neighbor, we wrote a letter to all the neighbors stating our side of the argument (also included with this letter) and, after we acquired a copy of the petition, we went door to door to discuss the issue with everyone personally. We hope that these actions will help to restore the neighborhood peace, as it was never our intention to upset anyone. Sincerely, Clara McKenzie and Jim McKenzie • 0 • lc 3{Iii.

Clara McKenzie APN 007-072-014 (CBS) (MUP 02-20) BUTTE COUNTY A.I DI ......w ......----- Dear Sir or Madam: This is in response to your notice requesting input on the proposal to permit a large family day care facility for Clara McKenzie on a property located at 764 Undo Lane, Chico which is currently zoned R-1. We strenuously object to this proposal to allow the establishment of a small business in this long-established residential neighborhood for the following reasons: 1. This is a stable neighborhood of smaller houses. Many of the residents are original owners and have lived here since its inception in 1950. Places like this deserve the continued protection by the county. 2. It would deprive the immediate neighbors from the peace and tranquility they have come to expect in an R -t area after devoting years in the workplace. The McKenzie house is small, and children do spill out into the yard making the usual noises that children at play make. Currently, this noise carries for some distance. An increase in the number of children can only increase the level of noise. 3. An increase in the size of the facility would also cause an increase in traffic. Currently, the McKenzie's are, in fact, experiencing a shortage of parking space as- eyidenced by the fact that they have parked one of their cars across the street from their house on a permanent basis. Even now, when parents drop off and pick up their children, it is very difficult for us to exit our own driveway because cars are parked on both sides of the street and are entering and exiting two driveways in the. McKenzie front yard. 4. All homes in this neighborhood are on septic systems and have restrictions regarding expansion. The presence of at least 12 more children and an assistant will certainly add to the load the McKenzie septic system, has to bear. Page 2 Development Services Director July 13, 2002 5. The McKenzie request for a zoning change represents an erosion of the quality of the neighborhood. If this permit is approved what comes next? Will there be more large family day care facilities or perhaps a cabinet shop or a restaurant? Or, will the _ McKenzie facility continue to grow in size? Thank you for your attention. : Very truly yours, Emil G. Ekman Mary Anna Ekman We concur with the opinions expressed in this letter and wish to have the Development Services Director note our opposition to the proposal to allow Clara McKenzie to establish a large family day care center at 764 Lindo Lane, Chico.

It has come to our attention'that there is a concerted effort to block our application for a minor use permit from Butte County to expand our license. It greatly saddens us that no one has approached us directly with any questions or concerns about our school or our request for the expanded license. Rather, they have taken measures to defeat our request without informing us of their intentions. Please consider. these facts regarding the nature of our school and our reasons for requesting the expanded license. I - • The school hours are from 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM. Parents usually arrive within a half-hour window of time rather than all at once, between 8:30 to 9:00; for instance. • Children play in the backyard for about 40 minutes before noon and about 40 minutes after 1:00 PM. a • The current license limits us to not more than six preschool aged children in our home at any time. • Because we have two young.daughters of our own, we have no more than four paying students at a time. This translates into a gross earning potential (with full enrollment) of about $16 per hour. With the low afternoon enrollment, expenses,,and self-employment tax on top of income tax this translates into very little net income. • Due to the logistics of scheduling, our school, currently has the full capacity of six, students (including our children) only two mornings a week. Since parents prefer mornings, the afternoons typically have only one or two paying students. Attendance in the afternoons is unlikely to increase -much with the expanded license. • Jim is not a teacher in our school, and Clara is the only teacher. The nature of the instruction and supervision of the students is such that it is more work and stress than Clara should have to manage alone. • With a current average gross monthly income from the school of less than $1,300, we cannot afford to hire an aid. • An aid is necessary to help with supervision, instruction, activit O rW aI&ASS Y LS individual student's needs. During the brief outdoor interval adults would better J U L 2 2 2002 BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING DIVISION • manage the children's noise level. An aid will allow Clara the flexibility to speak with parents, take important phone calls, or carryout some other necessary activity that prevents her from being able to devote her full attention to teaching and supervision. This would increase the quality of education we can provide, and greatly reduce her stress level. • We hope that the expanded license would allow us to expand to a total of six to eight paying students in the mornings, hire an aid, accommodate more flexibility in scheduling, and provide a more classroom -like environment for the children. • Our immediate neighbors have voiced their acceptance and support to us regarding the expansion. • We predict the impact on traffic would be to add two to four cars during pick-up or drop-off intervals, and we have plenty of parking available. Please consider if the the current two to four cars has really been a problem, or is even noticeable. 0 • The expansion of the license will not change the outer appearance of our home in any way. • At this time, the school is *our family's primary source of income.

The McKenzie's and the center are a great improvement in our neighborhood. At first I was a little confused about Clara's plans, and I went to her and asked. She only wants to increase her numbers enough to hire an assistant, and to make the center more in keeping with good educational guidelines. As an educator and a grandmother, I know that good child care with qualified, credentialed early childhood teachers is a treasure for any neighborhood. The children at the school next door to me, and right next to my open windows where I do my own studying and school work, are well behaved, quiet and obviously involved in the kinds of creative activities associated with the Montessori technique. I know that some of you (neighbors) are concerned about increased traffic, relaxing of codes and zoning. Rest assured that the traffic issue is a non -problem. I have already assured Clara that parents may use the curb in front of my house which is big enough to accommodate all therpa ents! Many people already park there and I hardly notice. As for relaxing of the zoning in our neighborhood, this is not going to happen. Several child care centers have existed in the neighborhood, including one at the location of the Acorn school. Clara just wants to increase the numbers to create a better school. Please join me in helping her with her plans, and when you can, visit the school and see how many improvements Jim and Clara have made.

I have 4 small to teen-age children. I purchased my home on Lindo Lane. to raise my children in residential neighborhood. The McKenzie's have had a sign up stating there is already a school their; what is the number of students described as large day care facility? There is, already a small Day care facility located one house and across the street (where Pillsbury meets LindoLane) from the proposed site. Two -Day care Facilities within 190 feet of each other seems a little ridiculous, where will this stop? This brings increase traffic at the 8 a.m. and 5p.m. times of day The Increase traffic flow would seem to concern me in the safety of my children. There -seems to be a lot of speeding cars on Lindo Lane. Do you conceder speed bumps to slow the increase traffic flow? I .nersonally do not want this on my street; the zoning of R-1(Residential) seems to be for a rE � E 1 2 2002 TTE COUNTY NING OMSION r w 16 July 2002 Dear Neighbor, We are Jim and Clara McKenzie, homeowners at 764 Lindo Lane, and proprietors of the.Acorn Montessori School, also at that address. It has come to our attention that there is a concerted effort to block our application for a minor use permit from Butte County to expand our license. It greatly saddens us that no one has approached us directly with any questions or concerns about our school or our request for the expanded license. Rather, they have taken measures to defeat our request without informing us of their intentions. Please consider these facts regarding the nature of our school and our reasons for requesting the expanded license. • The school hours are from 8:30 AM to 3:30 OM. Parents usually arrive within a half-hour window of time .rather than all at once, between 8:30 to 9:00, -for instance. • Children play in the backyard for about 40 minutes before noon and about 40 minutes after 1:00 PM. • The current license limits us to not more than six preschool aged children in our home at any time. • Because we have two young daughters of our own, we have no more than four paying students at a time. This translates into a gross earning potential (with full enrollment) of about $16 per hour. With the low afternoon enrollment, expenses, and self-employment tax on top of income tax this translates into very little net income. • Due to the logistics of scheduling, our school currently has the full capacity of six students (including our children) only two mornings a week. Since parents prefer mornings, the afternoons typically have only one or two paying students. Attendance in the afternoons is unlikely to increase much with the expanded license. • Jim is not a teacher in our school, and Clara is the only teacher. The nature of the instruction and supervision of the students is such that it_ is more work and stress than Clara should have to manage alone. • With a current average gross monthly income from the -school of less than $1,300, we cannot afford to hire an aid. • An aid is necessary to help with 'supervision, instruction,'- activities, and addressing individual student's needs. During the brief outdoor intervals, two adults would better w w manage the children's noise level. An aid will allow Clara the flexibility to speak with parents, take important phone calls, or carryout some other necessary activity that prevents her from being able to devote her full attention to teaching and supervision. This would increase the quality of education we can provide, and greatly reduce her stress level. • We hope that the expanded license would allow us to expand to a total of six to eight paying students in the mornings, hire an aid, accommodate more flexibility in scheduling, and provide a more classroom -like environment for the children. • Our immediate neighbors have voiced their acceptance and support to us regarding the expansion. • We predict the impact on traffic would be to add two to four cars during pick-up or drop-off intervals, and we have plenty of parking available. Please consider if the the current two to four cars has really been a problem, or is even noticeable. • The expansion of the license will not change the outer appearance of our home in any way. • At this time, the school is our family's primary source of income. Jim is completing coursework to become a music teacher in the public school system. His prospects for teaching locally are quite good. We like Chico very much, and hope to stay. • We have included an informative mailer about the Acorn Montessori School, and invite you to come to observe and meet us if you have any further concerns. We understand a petition is circulating in protest to our application for the expanded license. We ask only that you consider the facts about our school and our plans before you sign the petition. If you have signed the petition already, we ask that you reconsider your position based on the facts we have presented. If, after reading our side of the argument, you feel supportive, we would greatly appreciate a written letter expressing your support. We don't want to create a problem for the neighborhood. We just want to be able to make a living that is satisfying and consistent with our vocational aspirations. Please consider that if we are granted the expansion, there will likely be little or no difference to the quality of your life. But, denial of the expansion will have a profoundly negative impact on ours. Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter. Sincerely, your neighbors, Jim and Clara McKenzie 8943323 767 Lirido Lane Chico, CA 95973 July 20, 2002 Dear Neighbors, On Wednesday, July 17, I mailed the letter we all signed regarding the proposed permit for a large family day care facility at 764 Lindo Lane. On Thursday, I received a call from Craig Sanders, a Planner for Butte County. The following is a summary of the two main points he made: The State mandates that the County cannot disprove a day care use permit. The County is allowed to put restrictions in the permit. Those restrictions relate to things like driveways available and the number of children allowed. The State allows 14 children and the County allows 12 children. This means that because of the current county code, the maximum number of children allowed will be no more than 12. The County allows a wide range of activities in an R-1.zone as long as they do not create excessive noise, such as the sound of wood saws or the whine of tools used in a wheel alignment/brake business, or cause any other environmental disturbance air pollution. In those cases, environmental studies have to be done. I suggest that if you have any further questions regarding this issue or my telephone conversation with Mr. Sanders, you contact Craig Sanders at 538-7601. You may also, of course, call me at 343-9824.

Clara McKenzie APN 007-072-014 (CBS) (MUP 02-20) Dear Sir or Madam: This is in response to your notice requesting input on the proposal to permit a large family day care facility for Clara McKenzie on a property located at 764 Lindo Lane, Chico which is currently zoned R-1. We strenuously object'to this proposal to allow the establishment of a small business in this long-established residential neighborhood for the following reasons:' 1. This is a stable neighborhood of smaller houses. Many of the residents are original owners and have lived here since its inception in 1950. Places like this deserve the continued protection by the county. 2. It would deprive the immediate neighbors from the peace and tranquility they have come to expect in an R-1 area after devoting years in the workplace. The McKenzie house is small, and children do spill out into the yard making the usual noises that children at play make. Currently, this noise carries for some distance. An increase in the number of children can only increase the level of noise. J. An increase in the size of the facility would also cause an increase in traffic. Currently, the McKenzie's are, in fact, experiencing a shortage of parking space as evidenced by the fact that they have parked one of their cars across the street from their house on a permanent basis. Even now, when parents drop off and pick up their children, it is very difficult for us to exit our own driveway because cars are parked on both sides of the street and are entering and exiting two driveways in the McKenzie front yard. 4. All homes in this neighborhood are on septic systems and have restrictions regarding expansion-., The presence of at least 12 more children, "and"an'assistant will certainly �d lope the McKenzie septic system has to bear. J U L 18 2002 BUTTE COUNTY i Page 2 Development Services Director July 13, 2002 5. The McKenzie request for a zoning change represents an erosion of the quality of the neighborhood. If this permit is approved what comes next? Will there be more large family day care facilities or perhaps a cabinet shop or a restaurant? Or, will the McKenzie facility continue to grow in size? Thank you for your attention. Very truly yours, V, e�?- W'm 0-11— Emil G. Ekman Mary Anna Ekman We concur with the opinions expressed in this letter and wish to have the Development Services Director note our opposition to the proposal to allow Clara McKenzie to establish a large family day care center at 764 Lindo Lane, Chico.
