IMAGINE SCHOOLS: REOUEST FOR SPECIAL EXCEPTION USE APPROVAL <br />FOR A K-8 CHARTER SCHOOL FACILITY (QUASI-JUDICIAL) <br />PROOF OF PUBLICATION OF ADVERTISEMENT FOR HEARING IS ON FILE IN THE <br />OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD <br />Community Planning Director Stan Boling recapped his memorandum of April 17, 2008, <br />whereby MBV Engineering, Inc., on behalf of Low Key, Inc., and Imagine Schools, requested a <br />special exception use approval for a Charter K-8 School on 4th Street, west of 58th Avenue. By <br />using a PowerPoint Presentation, he detailed the proposed Imagine School's future location (a site <br />previously approved as a subdivision known as Parrot Bay); the proposed site plan and the two <br />phases. He gave an overview of the proposed landscaping plan; the 4th Street improvements in <br />Phase 1; the requirements prior to issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy (C.O.) in Phase 1; and <br />the proposed improvements that would be added in Phase 2. He acknowledged that the Planning <br />and Zoning Commission (PZC) approved the special exception use with the conditions originally <br />recommended by staff, that project trips be monitored; and that the need for an eastbound left turn <br />lane be re-evaluated prior to issuance of building permits for Phase 2. <br />Attorney Bruce Barkett, representing Imagine Schools, felt this site and location was <br />ideal because it had already been cleared and approved for development, and acknowledged that <br />this project had satisfied all land development regulations. <br />The Chairman opened the public hearing. <br />7 <br />April 29, 2008 <br />
