Trinity Lutheran Church SPU #1-93 P�yC �- S. �arking will be available for the five employees of the proposed day care facility. The City Traffic Engineer has not required a detailed tra�c study for the proposal and has not requested any additional mitigation measures for pedestrian and traffic proposals. The streets are adequate to carry the additional traffic. 9. EMC 19.34.030 requires that parking studies be prepared for uses which do not specify a parking requirement. Based on this requirement, the Applicant submitted that the proposal will need five off-street parking spaces for employees. In addition, the Applicant submitted that the pick-up and drop-off tra�c could be accommodated using the loading and unloading area of Lombard Avenue and the unused parking that is available on 24th Street. The Applicant submitted data supporting contentions that the peak demand for on-street parking is the middle of the day between 12:30 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. and that the a.m. and p.m. peaks for drop-off and pick-up of the children will not be impacted by parking demands. 10. The City submitted that in addition to the day care facility, thsre is a twelve-step treatment program for recovering alcoholics which occurs at the church. These meetings are between noon and 1:00 p.m. Because the parking demands of the day care facility and the program are different, n� significant impact will result. Adequate parking can be provided using existing on and off-street parking spaces. 11. No new structures are proposed other than a fence. The existing church has been in existence for many years and is compatible with other uses. 12. A sign will be Iocated on the northeast corner of the property visibie from Lombard Avenue. The �ign �Nill conform to the provisions of EMC 19.36.170.D. 13. EM� Chapter 18.35 requires perimeter landscaping for the proposed use. This w�li include landscaping along the street frontages and interior lot lines. These � landscaping requirements are unable to be satisfied because of the location of existing landscaping. The City has thus proposed alternatives to the landscaping which have been agreed to. Adequate landscaping, buffering, and screening will result. 14. No sm,oke, dust, odor, glare, visual blight, or other undesirable impacts will result with the approval of the Special Property Use Permit. Children playing outside the area will generate additional noise. However, the noise will be limited because the number of children playing in the area will he staggered. The property owners in the general vicinity were informed of the proposed use and notice of the hearing was given. No negative testimony or opposition testimony w;�s submitted with regard to noise. ,_ . . _ . _ _. �. _ ------ -- _ _-- fii�
