That letter is attached. Once again, we can not request a hearing, due to the fact that we are out of town. However, we strongly repeat the objections to the establishment of a day care business at that address. Since we first wrote to you, we have talked more to people who live on Pinebrook. Even without alegally-sanctioned business at 14481, there are still plenty of complaints from neighbors and tenants at that end of the cul-de-sac. We are informed that traffic is already unreasonably heavy to and from that address and that often the cars are traveling much too fast to be safe. We are also informed that there is plenty of action late at night, sometimes as late as 11 PM. That greatly exceeds the limited hours requested by the applicant. If it makes any difference legally, are you aware of the fact that the people wishing to establish the business are not the owners of the property? Once again, we ask you: please do not grant the request CUP 08-008 for a family day care home at 14481 Pinebrook Dr. Sincerely, Tom and Susan Muldoon 12791 Bubbling Well Santa Ana, CA 92705 August 3, 2008 Reins Kapadia, Associate Planner/City of Tustin Community Development Department 300 Centennial Way Tustin, CA 92780 Dear Ms. Kapadia, You mailed a letter on August 1, 2008 regarding the possibility of a large family day care home at 14881 Pinebrook Dr. (CUP 08-008). Since there is no such address on Pinebrook, we believe you are referring to the house at 14481 Pinebrook Dr. We own the house next door at 14471. You asked for comments, and we certainly have some to send to you. We are not requesting a hearing because we will not be in town on August 18. But please consider the following: we vehemently oppose legalizing a large family day care home at that location. Our reasons are as follows: 1) The zoning district is R-1, as you know. That means the home is supposed to be a single residence, not a business. Whether or not the government code 1597.46 prohibits the undertaking is not the issue. By any name, a large family day care home is a business. The operators are certainly charging for this care, have set hours, and will be employing "one non-resident employee". That's a business. 2) This street is directly across from Nelson Elementary School. Routine daytime traffic during the school year is busy, and school events push parking on to Pinebrook as well, making less street space available. People who live on the street use street space, too, and rightfully so. 3) "Drop-off and/or pick-up';areas"<are virtually non-existent. The house itself is a small 3-bedroom with little front yard arn~ a minimal driveway not much more than one car length from garage to street. Will that be one of the "areas"? Beyond that, the house sits at the end of a cul-d~~-sac. Please take one minute to imagine what this kind of traffic is going to do to Pinebrook (a dead-end street), in general, and what an overall nuisance it will be at our end of the block, specifically. 4) Because this street is a cul-de-sac, parking space is always limited. Additional cars are undesirable in this R-1 zoning district, and probably unsafe. 5) Noise cannot be controlled with 14 children in residence, and the necessary traffic accompanying their arrivals and departures cannot be silenced. Apparently this day care business has been going on for some time, since we had complaints from our tenants several months ago regarding disruptive, excessive noise from that residence. We didn't buy a house in the suburbs so that we could own a property next to a business; that, of course, is totally undesirable. Please do not grant the request CUP 08-008 for a family day care home at 14481 Pinebrook. Sincerely, Tom and Susan Muldoon
