<br /> Drop off for the school is 8:20 a.m. to 8:35 a.m. They are gravely concerned about the safety of <br />these children and the liability of McBride Brothers. Semi-tractor trailers do not mix well with <br />children. The property values of these buildings will go down because no one will want to buy <br />the property knowing the liabilities of the school across the street. There are covenants that run <br />in this neighborhood. Those covenants were relied upon by McBride Brothers when they <br />purchased the property and they have invested over 3 million dollars in their building and their <br />equipment. They urge the Commission to reject this Special Review Use application. <br /> <br />David Wollman, 190 South Washington, Avenue. Mr. Wollman asked the Commission to <br />consider this application positively for their review. As a parent, he wanted to assure the <br />Commission that this is an extremely dedicated community. He plans to spend at least a half a day <br />per week and his wife approximately the same, as a volunteer. There will be sufficient oversight <br />of the children to keep some of these projected events from happening. He does not believe that <br />anything will happen. <br /> <br />Suzanne Talaric, 638 Manorwood Lane, Louisville. Ms. Talaric has three children that will be <br />attending Peak to Peak this fall. Ms. Talaric asked for the Commission’s support. She has had an <br />opportunity to visit a charter school in an industrial center in Colorado Springs. She felt it <br />blended well with the light industrial community. She too is very concerned about the safety of <br />her children and there is no way that she would send them to a school where she felt they would <br />be endangered. <br /> <br />Jenny Hatch, 214 Pheasant Run, Louisville. Ms. Hatch has four children that will attend Peak to <br />Peak. Ms. Hatch believes that the biggest concern with this school is that the local schools are <br />not functioning as well as the City Council and the School Board would like them to and this will <br />cause a loss of enrollment and also loss of funds. She understands the concerns, but the bottom <br />line is that they are parents and they want to ensure that their children get the education they think <br />they need. She believes that the parents, the teachers, and the Staff at the school can do a <br />fabulous job of making sure the children are safe. She believes the property owners are too <br />concerned about safety issues. It is not a safe world. If Peak to Peak is not approved she and her <br />husband will home school their children. She would like the School Board and the City Council <br />to think about how many families are just simply going to pull out to go to private school or home <br />school if they are not allowed to have their choice as parents. <br /> <br />Don Kinnacki, 107 Fairfield Lane, Louisville. Mr. Kinnacki appreciates the safety concerns but <br />they feel safe about the situation the way it is being provided for. <br /> <br />Terry O’Connor, O’Connor Group, 6685 Gunpark Drive, Boulder. Mr. O’Connor commented <br />that it was not until today that he was ever presented with a map of the SOB district. Mr. <br />O’Connor stated that he thinks it would have been appropriate that he be consulted when the <br />SOB Ordinance was passed since he is 65% owner. This could potentially affect his property. <br /> <br />Kevin Kelley, 1905 Iris Avenue, Boulder. Mr. Kelley stated that if you look at the traffic counts, <br /> <br /> 11 <br /> <br />
