3. Parsons’ Appeal of Day Care License Denial – Randy Fife/Keli Jones 

Recently, Kelley Parsons, in behalf of Small Steps Daycare, filed an 
application for a daycare to be located at 504 S. Main Street (the former 
Goodwill retail store location). Upon review of the daycare application, 
it was determined by City staff that Small Steps Daycare cannot meet the 
requirements of Resolution No. 96-11 which states in part: “Daycare 
facilities shall provide the required open space for outdoor play areas 
which is derived by the maximum number of children times the minimum of 
100 square feet per child. The total area shall be contiguous to the 
structure used and shall be so arranged as to provide a safe play area 
that can be easily maintained and accessible to the children.” Because 
there was no contiguous outdoor play area shown as part of the daycare 
application, the license was denied. Pursuant to M.C.C. 9-10-15, Small 
Steps Daycare appealed. City Council is empowered to direct the City Clerk 
to issue a license that has been denied upon a finding of "good cause" for 
the issuance of the license.

I realize that by posting this item, by itself, to the Viz that I will be 
victim to the wrath of those who shall remain nameless, but . . . 

Who cares?
