As was explained to you in a letter by Dennis Derickson, the City's Plann'u�g nirector, a schwl activity is an expansion of your current use and is subject t�� the City regulations which reyuire you to obtain a Special Property Use Permit. I will assume tliat you rec�ived a copy of the City Co�e section which applles to your proposed uve. One of the pur�oses of requirin� your p�oposed school to obtain a Speciel Property Use Permit i:; to insure that the facility meets fire and safety codes and is compatible with the surrounding residential neighboriiood. Compliance with these � requirements is not only to the City's benefit, but also to the benefit of the church � and the children who attend your school. � Even though you may view the school activity as an extension of your regulnr �� church curriculu�n, the City nevertheless has the responsibility to insist that you obtain a Speciel Yroperty Use Permit. Unfortunately, the City does not tiave the latitude to meke a speciel exception in the case of your proposed school. y � 1 have been informed that you intend to open the sehool and begin elasses this �-+ ; week. While the Cit� cannot condone the opening of the school without the proper o � permit, it is willing to consider giving you speciul consideration in keeping the � � sehool open during the pendency of the special prnperty use permit proceedings if you would reciprocete by immedintely cantacting the City to meke arrangements � � to aequire the neces�ary permit. I would ask that you contact Gerry Ervine at 259-8731. However, if Mr. Ervine hr�s not been contacted by Monday, � September 14, 1981, this office will have no alternative but to eonsider what legal �Q = recourse would be required to insure that the City Code is complied with. � � � �, T urge you to contact the City as soon as possible to nvoid placing your �chool in � jeopardy of being closed down. If you or your uttorney have any questions you o � would like to address to me, please do not hesitnte to contact me. � c� � �� c: � �: � ; � �� y :: ;
