STAFF REPORT
Staff recommends approval of the request with the following condition:
1. ADA space must be paved, striped, and designated with signage.
Debra Kay Griffin, owner of Lil Debs Daycare, is requesting a specific use permit to allow for a
day care facility in her home. The property is in an R-S (Residential – Single Family Dwelling)
District, which allows this kind of use with a specific use permit application. The property is
located at 3590 Bennett Road.
The facility will be located in a somewhat rural, residential area. The facility will be in operation
from 6 AM to 6 PM, Monday through Friday and have a maximum of 6 children enrolled.
Traffic is not anticipated to be a problem as this is not a highly populated area, the Griffin's have
an ample driveway, and they have limited the number of children.
Utilities and drainage will not need to be altered. Parking will be provided on the existing
driveway; however, it is not anticipated that this use will require any additional parking. The
property owner has requested a waiver for the fencing requirement due to the rural nature of the
area. Property lines to the east, north and west are all heavily wooded.
Please note that final occupancy approval is subject to review and acceptance of submitted plans
and field inspections to verify compliance with applicable codes.
Exhibits are attached.
