-2-
Commissioner Perrine reported that this application was considered by the
Site and Architectural Review Committee. The Committee is recommending a
continuance.
Mr. Kee reported that Staff is in concurrence with the Site Committee's
recommendation, and noted that revised plans will be submitted to the
Planning Department prior to the next meeting. Mr. Kee suggested that
those in the audience who are interested in this item come in to look at
the plans.
Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the
audience to speak for or against this item, noting that this item will
probably be continued.
Mr. Ernest Cook, 282 Sunnyoaks Ave., stated his interest in keeping the
height of the proposed buildings lower than those on the other side of his
property. He also expressed concern with the proposed density.
There being no one else wishing to speak, it was
M/S: Fairbanks, Dickson - That the public hearing on ZC 86-09 be
continued to the Planning Commission
meeting of September 23, 1986. Motion
carried unanimously (6-0-1).
PD 86-02 Continued public hearing to consider the
Anderson, K. application of Mr. Kurt Anderson for a
Planned Development Permit and approval
of plans, elevations and development
schedule to allow the construction of a
duplex on property known as 274 Everett
Ave. in a PD (Planned Development/Medium
Density Residential) Zoning District.
Mr. Kee reported that Staff is recommending a continuance in that a
revised set of plans has not yet been received.
Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the
audience to speak for or against this item. There being no one wishing to
speak at this time, it was
M/S: Fairbanks, Perrine - That the public hearing on PD 86-02 be
continued to the Planning Commission
meeting of September 23, 1986. Motion
carried unanimously (6-0-1).
-3-
UP 86-09 Continued public hearing to consider
Loher, J. the application of Ms. Joan Loher, on
behalf of Raggedy Ann and Andy Preschool
and Daycare, for the establishment of a
preschool and daycare center on property
known as 1291 Elam Ave. in a C-1-S
(Neighborhood Commercial) Zoning
District.
Mr. Kee reported that Staff is recommending that the Commission adopt the
indicated findings and approve this use. In addition to the packet
received by the Commission, a report from the Police Department indicating
crime activity in this area is at the Commission's station. Mr. Kee noted
that Staff's recommendation is from a zoning standpoint; and, the Police
Department is recommending against this particular location for a daycare
use.
Sgt. Paul Kern, Campbell Police Department, reviewed the Police
Department's report for the Commission, noting that the report does not
indicate a drastically high crime rate, but represents steady crime
activity over the 5 months covered in the report.
Commissioner Dickson asked what the average crime rate was in the City,
compared to the studied Grids 7 & 8.
Sgt. Kern responded that he would have to expand the grid study for an
accurate representation.
Chairman Kasolas asked if Grid 8 was atypical of the community, or in the
5 month period is it atypical to have a crime activity of one incident for
each block for eack week. Is this area typical of the community at large?
Sgt. Kern indicated that further study would have to be done to answer
this question.
Commissioner Christ asked if Grid 7 included Rolling Hills Shopping Center
as well as the San Tomas Shopping Center.
Sgt. Kern noted that it does include both shopping centers; and, it has
been his experience that there is more crime in areas where there are
commercial uses.
Commissioner Fairbanks asked Sgt. Kern if he was typically the officer who
would respond to Planning Commission questions.
Sgt. Kern stated that this is the first daycare use he has reviewed;
however, he has been reviewing the Planning Commission applications sent
to the Police Department for 2-1/2 years as part of his assignment.
Commissioner Fairbanks asked if these criminal activities occured at
specific times of the day, evening, or afternoon.
Sgt. Kern responded that further research would be necessary to gather
this information.
-4-
Commissioner Fairbanks questioned. the statement in the Police Department
memorandum, "juveniles and young adults", asking Sgt. Kern what he was "-
saying with this terminology.
Sgt. Kern noted that the front of the shopping center has been a gathering
location because of the surrounding area. The statement was made as an
observation only.
Commissioner Christ asked for an opinion if the daycare use was proposed
near the Rolling Hills Shopping Center, 3-4 blocks away, but still in Grid
7.
Sgt. Kern indicated that his concern with the Rolling Hills Shopping
Center would be the two bars located in this center, and he would have
similar concerns; however, this is his opinion only.
Commissioner Olszewski expressed his appreciation to Sgt. Kern for his
participation. He asked about the analysis that the presented number did
not reflect a high crime rate, and how one determines that the numbers are
or are not a high crime rate -- what is a high crime rate?
Sgt. Kern responded that the analysis of what crime rate is high is
subjective, and further study of all the other grids in the City would be
required.
Commissioner Olszewski questioned the statement in the memorandum - "It is _
questionable this would occur." pertaining to State licensing.
Sgt. Kern stated that in looking at the site, he would have concerns about
the security for the children, regardless of what type of fence is
constructed. The physical location of the structure may or may not cause
licensing agencies to have questions.
Commissioner Olszewski asked about the final paragraph of the memorandum
from the Police Department which indicates "...,we would recommend..." -
where did the word "we" come from? Did Sgt. Kern meet with others?
Sgt. Kern noted that he talked with key staffinembers who are in the
subject area on a daily basis, as well as discussing the issue briefly
with Commander Lockwood, ergo the term "we".
Commissioner Fairbanks asked what officers handled Grid 7.
Sgt. Kern noted that the Department is in the process of shift changes;
however, he believes that Officers Haole, Pearson, and Perry are some of
the staff assigned to Grid 7.
Commissioner Perrine asked under what circumstance would the Police
Department recommend in favor of a daycare location; or, what factors draw _
the conclusion that this is not a good site?
Sgt. Kern stated that the factors indicating that this is not a good
location are consistency of criminal activity coupled with the location
adjacent to a shopping center.
-5-
Commissioner Dickson stated that he would like to make it clear that Sgt.
Kern is speaking for the Police Department as designated by the Police
Chief.
Mr. Kurt Anderson, representing the applicant, thanked Sgt. Kern for his
presentation, and noted that he felt the time of the criminal activities
has a bearing on the issue. Mr. Anderson discussed the actual operation
of a daycare, noting that the children are escorted into and out of the
center by their parents; and, at no time do the children leave the
confines of the center unaccompanied by an adult. The children are
supervised at all times of the day in the completely enclosed site. The
State has reviewed this location and has been positive about the use
pending the use permit and the structure being brought up to code. The
applicant is in concurrence with all the conditions indicated by Staff.
Mrs. Joan Loher, applicant, explained that the childcare center is an
educational facility with strict supervision and plenty of love. Child
care centers have existed in the worst ghettos, and the children thrive
from the love and care they receive there. More and more children will be
moving into this neighborhood, and most of the children who will come to
the daycare center already live in the area. Mrs. Loher noted that she
did not understand why it was okay for the children to live in this
neighborhood, but not to be cared for in this area. Surely the City can
take code enforcement actions to abate illegal and undesirable
activities. The children will have little or no contact with the people
in the neighborhood. Mrs. Loher noted that the Alcoholic Beverage
Control's response states that they would have gone ahead with the
approval for a liquor store in spite of the daycare facility.
Commissioner Dickson asked Mrs. Loher what criteria is used in selecting a
location.
Mrs. Loher responded that the primary issue is finding a site where the
neighbors will not object, where noise factors are not bothersome,
adequate yard space, and the amount of interior space per child.
Mrs. Joan Petri, 661 Ardis, San Jose, spoke in favor of granting the use
permit; cited the things her children have learned at Raggedy Ann & Andy
Preschool; and, stressed the importance of good daycare, noting that Mrs.
Loher really cares. Mrs. Petri suggested that some of the problems in the
area are a result of boredom, and perhaps a positive change in the area
will show people a different direction.
Ken and Julie Rose, 1155 Garber Place, San Jose, spoke in favor of the use
permit and expressed their confidence in Mrs. Loher and her staff.
Mr. Craig Cowell spoke highly of Mrs. Loher and expressed trust in the
selected location, noting that he feels the children will be safe.
Mr. Joe Elek, owner of the adjacent San Tomas Shopping Center, noted that
there is a lot of fence climbing at the shopping center. He continued
that the neighborhood has improved quite a bit; however, he still sees
quite a bit of vandalism in the area.
-6-
There being no one else wishing to speak, it was
M/S: Olszewski, Fairbanks - That the public hearing on UP 86-09 be
closed. Motion carried unanimously
(6-0-1) .
Commissioner Christ asked if there was a way to make the fencing higher
and more secure, since this was a concern.
Mr. Kee responded that the submitted site plans indicate a 6' chain link
fence around the property, and 6' is the normal fence height. Staff is of
the opinion that the applicant has responded to the concerns expressed.
Commissioner Dickson stated that he wished to go on record as being in
favor of daycare centers. He is, however, looking at the location in this
case to see if it is harmonious with the type of use proposed.
Chairman Kasolas noted that the issue is that of land use only--is a
daycare center an appropriate land use for this site. He noted the
improvement in the area; the fact that the economy now requires two-family
incomes; and, there are a number of families in this area with children
that need care. Chairman Kasolas concluded that any decision made by the
Planning Commission would not be made to impugn the integrity of the
applicant in any way.
M/S: Olszewski, Christ - That the Planning Commission adopt the
Negative Declaration which has been
prepared for this project; and, that the
Planning Commission adopt a Resolution
approving UP 86-09, based on the
attached findings, and subject to
conditions indicated in the Staff Report
dated September 9,.1986.
Discussion of motion
Commissioner Christ noted that there is another shopping center in this
grid that has crime problems; and, that the City itself has a community
center that operated a daycare center with extensive children's activities
across the street from that shopping center. The daycare center operated
at that location for a number of years without trouble. Again, it is a
neighborhood that is improving. Commissioner Christ felt that this would
be a step in the right direction for everyone in this area.
Commissioner Olszewski felt that crime could be attributed to the urban
design of a neighborhood, and there have been documented incidents where
crime has lessened because of improvements in the area. Commissioner
Olszewski noted that he sees this application as an improvement of a
structure and the addition of a viable climate for children who might
otherwise be left at home alone.
P.C. meeting of 9/23/86
SEE APPROVAL OF MINUTES for
-7- additional comment from Dickson
Commissioner Dickson stated that shopping centers have a high probability -
of crime. He felt that there are many other desirable locations in which -
a childcare use could be located; and, is it very difficult to keep track -
of 24 children with only two people. Commissioner Dickson concluded that
he did not think this site is a proper location for this type of use. ----------
Mr. Seligmann noted that the standard for a use permit is if the use will
be detrimental to the neighborhood, not necessarily if the neighborhood
will be detrimental to the use.
Vote on motion
AYES: Commissioners: Olszewski, Christ, Perrine, Fairbanks,
Kasolas
NOES: Commissioners: Dickson
ABSENT: Commissioners: Stanton.
Chairman Kasolas noted that he would hope that this use would be a
positive step in continuing the improvements in this neighborhood.
The Commissioner recessed at 8:50 p.m.; the meeting reconvened at 9:00
p.m.
UP 86-10 Continued public hearing to consider the
Filice, A. application of Mr. Al Filice, on behalf
of Medevac Inc., to establish a
paramedic station with a living unit and
a paramedic van in an existing building
on property known as 145 Dillon Ave. in
a PD (Planned Development/Industrial)
Zoning District.
Mr. Kee reported that Staff is recommending approval for one year, with a
review of the use at that time.
Chairman Kasolas asked about possible ingress/egress from this Dillon Ave.
area for the emergency vehicle; and, if there was any need to exit to
Railway Ave. to blend with eastbound Campbell Ave. traffic.
Mr. Helms indicated that the unit could use Dillon or take Sam Cava to
Gilman. Mr. Helms noted that the station has been operating for
approximately 1-1/2 years without any problems that Staff is aware of; a
review of the accident records indicates no significant problem as a
result of this paramedic operation.
Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the
audience to speak for or against this item.
-8-
Commissioner Christ asked Battalion Chief Paul Gantt, Campbell Fire
Department, about the location of close calls mentioned in a previous memo
regarding this issue; specifically, the proximity to the fire station - or
elsewhere in the City.
Battalion Chief Gantt responded that he did not believe any close calls
have been documented. The mention of close calls in the subject memo was
merely indicated as a potential concern when emergency vehicles are using
the same intersections. The concern is simply that the Campbell Fire
Department does not know when the other ambulance is coming, or where it
is coming from. If Medevac is using any major intersection, there is the
possibility of a conflict.
Commissioner Dickson asked Mr. Filice about "stand-by points".
Mr. Filice explained that when a Medevac unit from another sector is on a
call, the Campbell unit is moved into a "stand-by point" to cover the
area.
Commissioner Dickson noted to Mr. Filice that he is trained in both
medical and legal points, and asked him why the facility has been
operating without a use permit for a year.
Mr. Filice responded that the previous landlord assured Medevac that there
was no problem with the living unit on the site, and told them that a use
permit was already granted. Mr. Filice stressed that Medevac had no
intention of breaking the laws of the City.
Commissioner Fairbanks asked Mr. Kee about Condition 3.
Mr. Kee indicated that at present, the City is in discussion with the
current property .owner about bringing the whole site into conformance with
the zoning ordinance. This use permit request is a completely separate
issue.
There being no one else wishing to speak, it was
M/S: Fairbanks, Christ - That the public hearing on UP 86-10 be
closed. Motion carried unanimously
(6-0-1) .
M/S: Fairbanks, Christ - That the Planning Commission adopt the
attached findings and adopt a Resolution
.approving this UP 86-10 for a period of
one year, subject to conditions as
indicated in the Staff Report dated
August 26, 1986. At the end of the one
year period, the Planning Commission
will hold a hearing to review the use
and may extend the time period of the
use permit or terminate it. Motion
carried with the following roll call
vote:
-9-
AYES: Commissioners: Dickson, Olszewski, Christ, Perrine,
Fairbanks, Kasolas
NOES: Commissioners: None
ABSENT: Commissioners: Stanton.
Commissioner Fairbanks thanked Battalion Chief Gannt for coming to the
meeting, noting that he clarified her concerns on this issue.
Commissioner Olszewski noted that at the last meeting he agreed with
Commissioner Dickson that additional information regarding trip generation
was needed. He stated that he is completely satisfied that the
information has been presented, and that his initial feeling that this is
a good use has been verified.
UP 86-13 Public hearing to consider the
Younan, H. application of Mr. Homer Younan for
approval of a use permit to allow
on-sale and off-sale beer and wine from
a pizza parlor on property known as 865
S. San Tomas Aquino Rd. in a C-1-S
(Neighborhood Commercial) Zoning
District.
Mr. Kee reported that Staff is recommending approval of the on-sale beer
and wine use only, and recommending denial of the requested off-sale beer
and wine.
Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the
audience to speak for or against this item.
Mr. Zaya, President of Pizza Run, Inc., appeared to answer questions. Mr.
Zaya stated that the use is adjacent to the grocery store in the shopping
center; the hours will be from 11 a.m, to 10 p.m.; 70~ of his operation is
delivery, and the beer is just in case someone wants beer with pizza when
they eat on-site. Mr. Zaya stated that he is withdrawing the request for
off-sale beer and wine, and is in accord with Staff's recommendations and
conditions.
Mr. Joe Elek, property owner, noted that the pizza parlor has 12 seats
on-site. The applicant is requesting beer and wine in conjunction with
the on-site eating facilities. Mr. Elek continued that during the ten
months he has owned this shopping center, there has not been one crime
report from the location, and that he supervises every operation within
the center. He stated that he is also in concurrence with Staff's
recommendations and conditions.
There being no one else wishing to speak, it was
M/S: Fairbanks, Christ - That the public hearing on UP 86-13 be
closed. Motion carried unanimously
(6-0-1) .
-10-
M/S: Perrine, Christ -
Discussion on motion
That the Planning Commission adopt the
attached findings and adopt a Resolution
approving on-sale beer and wine, but
denying off-sale beer and wine, subject
to conditions as indicated in the Staff
report dated September 9, 1986. Motion
carried with the following roll call
vote:
Commissioner Dickson noted that the use permit procedure was originally
established to curtail the number of liquor establishments in the downtown
area. Now it appears that there is a problem developing in this shopping
center. There are other uses in this center which are selling beer and
wine, and a recently approved video use. Commissioner Dickson felt that
there was too high a concentration of these types of uses for this area.
Chairman Kasolas noted that

ZC 86-10 Public hearing to consider a City-
HPB 86-01 initiated zone change from R-1 (Single
City-initiated Family Residential) and/or P-O
(Professional Office) to R-1-H and/or
P-O-H (Historical Overlay District) for
the Alice Avenue Neighborhood (all
properties having frontage on Alice
Avenue: 20 through 235 Alice Ave., 235
S. First St., 189 & 190 S. Third St.,
s 2200 S. Winchester Blvd.
Mr. Kee reported that there is a Revised Staff Report at the Commission's
stations recommending that this item be continued in order that a public
hearing may be set to consider a text amendment to the Zoning Ordinance,
modifying the procedures for review of changes to properties within an
historic district.
Chairman Kasolas asked if the subject area was close to the redevelopment
area being considered by the consultant.
Mr. Haley indicated that the Alice Avenue Neighborhood is outside the
Redevelopment Area.
-11-
Chairman Kasolas asked if there was any feeling or belief that this may
have positive or detrimental effect in the direction of the Redevelopment
Agency since there is a significant land mass that fits into the
Redevelopment Area.
Mr. Kee noted that the subject area is shown on the General Plan for low
density, and if this proposal were adopted, the area would stay low
density. Staff does not think the low density residential use will create
problems with the Redevelopment Area; however, if the Commission so
desires, the issue can be referred to the Redevelopment Agency for
comment.
Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the
audience to speak for or against this item.
Mr. Nash Kunkel, 86 Alice Ave., asked for clarification on the procedure.
Mr. Monty Smith, 136 Alice Ave., stated that he shared the concern of many
elderly residents on the street that if we don't curtail known or unknown
threats, we will lose the street; however, he did not see Alice Avenue as
an improving neighborhood, noting that many of the old houses are badly in
need of repair. He felt that the proposed historical zoning would hurt
the street. Mr. Smith continued that he felt the existing R-1 zoning is
adequate protection, and that he would object to changing the
architectural styles on the street, but he did not feel that a historic
zoning would accomplish anything except make homeowners less able to fix
and maintain their homes. Mr. Smith stated that he would very much object
having to come to the City to ask if he could put on a new roof or paint
his home; and, there are no tax benefits involved for the additional rules
and regulations.
Chairman Kasolas asked if it was true that homeowners would have
difficulty improving their homes if the historic zoning is approved.
Mr. Haley responded that the proposed ordinance does not preclude
maintenance of the existing dwellings. The intent of the ordinance is to
provide for a review procedure for when someone wishes to add onto or make
significant changes, which would involve a public hearing before the
Historic Preservation Board. Mr. Haley continued that the Historic
Preservation Board recognizes the street as a changing street - just so
that the proposed changes are sensitive to the structures that are there.
Mr. Smith questioned the appeal procedures.
Mr. Haley explained that an appeal procedure is provided, and briefly
explained it.
Chairman Kasolas asked if statutes allowed public hearings to be held by
Boards other than the City Council and the Planning Commission,
particularly in light of the financial report regulations.
Mr. Seligmann indicated that he was not sure that the Historic
Preservation Board could make final land use decisions.
-12-
Commissioner Fairbanks noted her concern with tying the hands of those
living in historic homes.
Mr. George Stowers, 199 Alice Ave., stated that he is completely opposed
to the proposal. A homeowner would have to go through three levels of
bureaucracy before he could do anything with his property. Mr. Stowers
continued that it has been his experience that properties zoned historic
have decreased in value because they cannot be sold, except to specialized
people.
Chairman Kasolas asked Mr. Stowers if those who are opposed to this zone
change have directly communicated this opposition to their neighbors.
Mr. Stowers responded that prior to the last Historic Preservation Board
meeting, he canvassed the neighborhood and passed out copies of the
proposed ordinance. Those property owners who are opposed to the change
have agreed to come together and approach the Commission. This issue has
been discussed on a street corner level, but not at a neighborhood
meeting.
There being no one wishing to speak further at this time, it was
M/S: Olszewski, Fairbanks - That the public hearing on ZC 86-10 be
continued to the Planning Commission
meeting of October 14, 1986; and, that
the Planning Commission set the date of
October 14, 1986 for public hearing to
consider a text amendment modifying the
Zoning Ordinance for review of changes
to properties in a historic district.
Motion carried unanimously (6-0-1).
Chairman Kasolas asked the Commission if there was any interest in
referring this matter to the Redevelopment Agency for comment,
specifically its possible impact on the downtown plan. There was no
apparent interest.
ZC 86-11 Public hearing to consider a City-
HPB 86-02 initiated zone change from P-F (Public
City-initiated Facilities) to P-F-H (Historic Overlay)
Zoning District for property known as 1
W. Campbell Ave. (Campbell Community
Center).
Mr. Haley reported that the Civic Improvement Commission has initiated an
application for Historic Landmark designation on the southeasterly portion
of the Campbell Community Center, comprising 2.8 acres of the overall 30.7
acre parcel.
Mr. Seligmann clarified that this item is for a change of zoning to the
specific buildings - not for a change in the procedure, as the last item
was.
-13-
Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the
audience to speak for or against this item.
There being no one wishing to speak, it was
M/S: Olszewski, Christ - That the public hearing on ZC 86-11 be
closed. Motion carried unanimously
(6-0-1) .
M/S: Fairbanks, Olszewski - That the Planning Commission recommend
that the City Council accept the
Negative Declaration which has been
prepared for this project; and, that the
Planning Commission adopt a Resolution
recommending that the City Council
designate the southeasterly portion of
the Campbell Community Center as an
Historic Landmark and change the zone
for this portion of the site from P-F
(Public Facilities) to P-F-H (Public
Facilities/Historic Overlay) Zone.
Motion carried with the following roll
call vote:
AYES: Commissioners: Dickson, Olszewski, Christ, Perrine,
Fairbanks
NOES: Commissioners: Kasolas
ABSENT: Commissioners: Stanton.
MISCELLANEOUS
SA 86-42 Sign application - Anastasia's Fitness
Anatasia's Fitness Center Center - 2931 S. Winchester Blvd. -
C-2-S (General Commercial) Zoning
District.
Mr. Kee reported that the applicant is requesting approval of an 84 sq.ft.
sign reading "Anastasia's Fitness Center and Swim School" to be placed
over the entrance to the building. Staff is recommending approval.
Commissioner Olszewski noted that the item was considered by the Site and
Architectural Review Committee; however, it is before the Commission
without a recommendation. Commissioner Olszewski continued that he could
not see where there was an outstanding need for a larger sign when there
was already an approved 50 sq.ft. freestanding sign. Additionally, he
felt that the building's location, being set back from the street, made it
unique - therefore, drawing attention to it because it is not on the
street frontage.
M/S: Perrine, That the Planning Commission adopt the
attached findings and approve SA 86-42.
Motion dies for lack of a second.
-14-
M/S: Dickson, Christ - That SA 86-42 be continued to the
Planning Commission meeting of September
23, 1986, in that the applicant was not
present. Motion carried unanimously
(6-0-1).
Request Continued request of Mr. Scott Borgia to )
have a recording studio classified as an
allowed use in the M-1-S (Light
Industrial ) Zoning District.
It was the consensus of the Commission that this item be removed from the
agenda, at the applicant's request.
OTHER ITEMS BROUGHT UP BY COMMISSION
Chairman Kasolas noted that since he and Commissioner Perrine will be away
for the meeting of September 23, 1986, Commissioner Dickson will Chair the
meeting. Commissioner Stanton will serve on the Site and Architectural
Review Committee for the meeting of September 23, 1986. Additionally,
Commissioner Dickson will serve on the Site and Architectural Review
Committee in October, since Commissioner Perrine will be on vacation.

inculde calls for service such as, disturbances, P. R. details, Patrol
checks, etc.)
1986
April - 11
May - 9
June- 13
July - it
August - 5
49 criminal reports in a 5 month period
These numbers do not reflect a high crime rate, per se, but do reflect a
steady flow of activity ranging from assault, vandalisrn, drunk in public,
bicycle theft, disturbances, burglary, drugs, and warrant arrests. The
shopping center at Elam and San Tomas Aquino Road has always been a
gathering place for juveniles and young adults.
The actual structure of 1291 Elam is bordered directly by the rear of the
shopping center on its Eastside and by the gravel parking lot on the
Westside and Northside. This offers little or no security far young
children at 1291 Elam. The rear of the shopping center is yet another
deposit area for dunk cars, garbage, and on occasion, undesirables.

Another issue s the licensing for a daycare center. They would have to
obtain gapproval for this site and the structure itself. It is
questionable this would occur.
Collectively speaking, we would recomrnend against this particular location
for a daycare center.
