February 21, 1978 Minutes - page 4 FANTASYLAND DAY CARE CONTINUED Ms. Elizabeth Avore, owner of the business, stated that she felt it was very danger- our for parents and small children to be walking through the alley, around the parking garbage truck and all the ice. City Planner Drumm read the Planning Commission Resolution recommending that Council approve Ms. Avore's request. Mr. Conarroe stated that there would be a big traffic problem with parents double parking their cars on Main St. Councilman Meier stated that he received calls that were not in favor of the request. He felt that the parking in whole should be checked out. Councilman DiCarlo stated that the issue is taking the children through the front door instead of the back and since they are escorted by an adult, he could see no problem with the request. Councilman DelPizzo stated that the only reason this school was ever approved in the first place was because of a mis- understanding and information from the building inspector. Councilman DelPizzo stated that he was not in favor of the request. Mr. Wurl stated that one reason there has not been much work done on the traffic issue was because the Community of Commerce and stated their interest in studying the problem. Councilman DiLorenzo stated that she has not been in favor of a school in that area and requested that Attorney Joss check to see if there is a law stating that the curb in front of schools must be painted yellow. Councilman DiCarlo asked if the school is considered a business. Attorney Joss stated that he thought it was, but would double check. Councilman Caranci moved that the Planner and City Administrator take a further look at the problem and come up with a better plan to be brought back to the Council. Seconded by Councilman DelPizzo.
