Mayer had a great concern about pick-up on LaFarge Street, because it's easy for children to dart out into the road. Bishop: Crossing the street is something we discourage, both for the pre-school and the dance school. We would encourage parents to travel north on LaFarge, so that they're not encouraging their children to cross the street, and by using the back lot, there's no street access there. That's the whole reason for putting in the rear door, to accommodate that. Lathrop had the same concern about picking up children on LaFarge. He wondered, if it was possible, since this building occupies the frontage on LaFarge for 100 feet, to have several spaces there by the front walkway that would be restricted to very temporary parking or a waiting zone. Annette Brand, City Administrator, stated that it could be done, if Council so desired. Davidson called for any other Council comments. NONE Lathrop moved that Council approve the Special Use Review, Resolution No. 18, Series 1993, including the five conditions of the Planning Commission, and the provision that two temporary parking or waiting zone spaces be provided on LaFarge Avenue directly in front of the proposed use. Seconded by Hornbostel. Mayer offered a friendly amendment to have the City staff review the two temporary or waiting zone parking spaces to possibly increase the number of spaces. Sisk accepted that. favor. Seconder, Hornbostel, accepted that. Ail in Mayer felt that Council should be thinking this year about a parking policy for any commercial conversions in downtown Louisville. One concern he had was that as commercial buildings keep coming up in residential areas, which this item is, how parking will be handled.
