Candyce Burnett, Senior Planner, opened the public hearing: Kevin Tar,,a resident, expressed concern regarding traffic being generated by the Junior High School and this school between the hours of : 8 a m. and :00 a.m, on school days and a dangerous situation resulting from pedestrians crossing Beryl Street from various points between cars to the school site. He said it is dangerous because of the massive number of students within a small area in that time period, He said parents driving their students to the school are using the driveways in the neighborhood to turn and change directions and they are parking in the neighborhood as well, He voiced concern about the expansion of the church use over the last five years and the safety factor. He said cars are speeding down Beryl Street.

He said the existing buildings were originally intended for after school programs. He said they have a pre- school, a management plan and carpooling.

Ms. Burnett asked if the school administration considered staggered class times: Ms. Ferrer reported that the first grade begins at T45 a.m., Kindergarten begins at 8:00 a.m,, and the pre-school begins at 8:30 a.m. Ms. Burnett asked if they considered staggering start times with the Junior High School. Planning Director Meeting 2 October 12, 2010 Mr. Buquet said he would follow-up on that with the Junior High. He noted that it is a challenge with the schools being on the same street. He said they changed their schedule as well and he could see how 5 or 10 minutes could make an appreciable difference for the neighborhood, Ms. Burnett closed the public hearing.
