PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES DECEMBER 6, 1993
Jim Kennington, 28700 Las Haciendas, Temecula, owner of the property, advised the
Commission he is the owner of a property in Fallbrook which has a day care center
located on it. Mr. Kennington said the State Licensing Board as well as the Fire
Department and other agencies would have to inspect the property before a license
would be issued. Mr. Kennington said he has owned the property for 8 years and
there have never been any emergencies or hazardous situations. Mr. Kennington
added that pre-schools are allowed under the zoning.
Janet Kennington, co-owner of the property, advised the Commission she is the
director of the day care center in Fallbrook which Mr. Kennington referred to' and Ms.
Kennington asked the Council to let the state agencies determine whether the
proposed site is a safe environment for children.
Rita Dengler, 28700-B, Las Haciendas, Temecula, a tenant in the development, asked
the Commission to approve the application. Ms. Dengler said she does not feel the
location of the complex poses any danger to the proposed day care center. She said
she would like to see the project approved to bring more visibility to the businesses in
the complex.
Chairman Ford read a letter received from Eli Dubrow, 27941 Front Street, in
opposition to the application. Mr. Dubrow said he does not feel a day care center is
an appropriate use in the medium manufacturing zone and requested the Commission's
denial of the application.
Planning Director Gary Thornhill said staff agrees there should be some flexibility to
provide for on-site child care in the medium manufacturing zone however, staff's
concern is that they have no control over future tenants in this zone. Director Thornhill
added the child care center which currently exists in this zone, was a County approved
project.
Chairman Ford said it is difficult to deny this application when the City encourages
individuals to locate businesses and provide public services near by.
Commissioner Fahey said she is concerned with the number of warehouses on blocks
in this particular area.
Commissioner Blair said she does not consider this an appropriate location for young
children.
It was moved by Commissioner Fahey, seconded by Commissioner Blair to close the
public hearing at 6:35 P.M. and Adopt Resolution No. 93-34 denying Planning
Application No. PA93-0195, Minor Conditional Use Permit, based upon the Analysis
and Findings contained in the Staff Report.
