City Council Meeting Minutes August 5, 2014 Page 4 of 22 38 parking spaces are provided including handicapped parking (32 spaces are required). Expansion: Future 2,000 SF expansion would require 8 additional parking spaces (4/1,000 SF). Currently the site only yields 6 surplus spaces. The applicant has secured a shared parking agreement to allow for additional parking spaces. Architecture: The four sided architecture complies with the CDDSG. The building is 26' tall, has light tan cement siding, cultured stone details divided light windows and mechanical equipment screened by a parapet. The proposed daycare /preschool facility is approximately 1,100 feet from two Medical /Retail Marijuana establishments. The Louisville Municipal Code does not prohibit a day care center from being located next to existing Medical /Retail Marijuana facilities, however, the two existing facilities will not be permitted to alter, expand or extend their existing businesses once a building permit for the daycare center was obtained. Recommendation: Staff recommended approval of Resolution No. 43, Series 2014, for a final PUD and SRU for Goddard Schools without condition. APPLICANT PRESENTATION Craig Cahen, Cahen Architectural Group, 7076 South Alton Way, Centennial, CO, stated is he representing Rick and Julie Avirett, the owners and operators of the proposed Goddard School. The Goddard School Systems represents over 540 schools throughout the county. Goddard is very selective about their operators and locations and is very excited to have a school in Louisville. He explained the expansion area is proposed for an additional classroom and a gymnasium. The parking issue identified by the Planning Commission has been addressed and the marijuana issue has been addressed by the City Attorney. COUNCIL COMMENT Council member Loo inquired whether the owners of the two medical /retail establishments were notified of the daycare /preschool facility. Planning and Building Safety Director Russ stated the staff did not contact them specifically because they are located beyond the LMC required 500' notice distance. Staff sent notices of the public hearings to businesses within the required 500' as required by the Louisville Municipal Code. Council member Loo asked if there were any analogous situations where someone is building something and it affects someone else's ability to add on or build something. Planning and Building Safety Director Russ stated there is a direct correlation between liquor licensing and alcohol establishments throughout the City for a 500' separation.
