Commission approves expansion of in-home daycare from six to 12 children
Summary
An in-home childcare operator at 3816 Fortress Drive received Planning Commission approval to expand enrollment from six to 12 children under SUP-14-2026, subject to standard Title 17 landscaping and permit conditions; applicant cited an upcoming birth as the reason for seeking compliance with state rules.
The commission approved a special-use permit allowing an in-home childcare facility at 3816 Fortress Drive to increase enrollment from six to 12 children. Staff said the plans generally comply with Title 17 and listed conditions including a maximum enrollment of 12 children, planting two trees in the front yard and installing shrubs per landscaping requirements. The applicant (identified by staff as Avidus Yacoub) told commissioners the expansion was sought to remain compliant with state rules because a new child is expected, and described backyard play space with shade and misters.
Commissioners discussed drop-off behavior and encouraged the operator to use the driveway and be mindful of street parking to avoid neighborhood conflicts; the motion to approve passed with conditions.
