Louisville City Council Meeting <br />July 5, 2000 <br />Page 18 <br /> <br />greatly aid traffic patterns. Phare noted that expansion of 104th & Dillon Road would <br />create a fully paved secondary access to Boxelder Street. <br /> <br />Davidson asked Public Safety Director Goodman if the response time for emergency <br />evacuation busing would be the same for any school. Goodman stated that the response <br />would be the same. <br /> <br />Davidson asked Kelley what percentage of children would be at the school before and <br />after peak hours. Kelley estimated approximately 50 children. <br /> <br />Davidson stated that the distribution of traffic would be much broader than indicated. <br />Kelly stated that most traffic would arrive at 8:20 a.m. and disperse throughout the <br />afternoon. <br /> <br />Davidson asked Planning Director Wood about a past Special Review Use application for <br />a dance school in the CTC area. Wood stated for the purpose of definition it was not <br />determined to be a school, but rather a professional service. <br /> <br />Brown asked Mr. Larson to summarize the information enclosed in his letter to Council <br />with regard to sexually orientated businesses. Larson stated he concurred with the City <br />Attorney's opinion on the sexually oriented businesses. He stated there is no <br />constitutional minimum that must be left open to allow for Sexually Oriented Businesses <br />to operate. He noted that only .09% of the land within the City has been found to be <br />constitutional. He noted that Court's do not look at how much land is available as a single <br />factor, they consider many factors. <br /> <br />Brown asked if the standard is some reasonable market. Larson stated that when looking <br />at the market for sexually oriented businesses, the theoretical market is evaluated, rather <br />than the actual market. <br /> <br />Mayer asked Kelley to address the surrounding landowners concern on the economic <br />impact. Kelley stated she went to the Boulder County Assessor's office and her research <br />proved the land properties went up in value by 15%. She expressed her surprise to <br />opposition from the property owners based on decreased property values. She noted that <br />further research has also shown schools in industrial areas to be a good mix. <br /> <br />Peter Blackford, 177 Boulder View Lane, Boulder, CO, stated that he did not use the <br />term property value. He stated that a bank became less interested in providing a loan <br />once they learned of a proposed school in the industrial zone. They cited higher rates of <br />insurance during construction and concern over the types of businesses allowed within <br />the park. He felt that a school limited his ability to develop the property. <br /> <br />18 <br /> <br /> <br />
