In ~swer m Councilman Teague's quest~on as to whe~h~r the building ,will be Used for' any. purpose other than the nursery, Manager said the McKrolas will continue using i~ for a residence. Mrs. Crater stated her objections to the nursery at this location, saying it is a business and will lead to est;ablishment of further business in the ,~eighborhood. She feels 'int~oduction of this type facility will be a detriment to the area, so far as single-family living is concerned. She inquired whether it .would be a year-round or seasonal activity. ,'. .;, '. . . I. .J .; Dale McKrola,2720 Potter .Street, asked the COuncil to uphold the .Planning Com- I ,missi'on's decis~on.' In answer to questions from Council members'and the Mayor, Mr. McKrola said the operation would have to be called a business and that it is undecided whether it will be a seasonal venture, although it will probably be operated concurrently with the school year. Manager said it is the type of . business speCifically provided .for under conditional uses in 'R-l zones to per- mit a type of operation compatible' with sUrrounding 'area. Councilmen McDonald and Teague questioned the desirability of locating a facility of .this type in a single-family ~eighborhood, since it is a bus.iness in the sense that it is being operated for a profit. Councilman Mohr noted that it would not set precedent since there are other child care centers in the City in single-family zones. \ Mr. Mohr moved seconded by Mrs. Beal to deny the appeal. < < Discussion among Council members revolved around whether the day nurseries now in existence in residential areas are operated by occupants of a home or by employes of the' owner, hours of op~ration, compatibility with the neighborhood, etc. Mr. McKrola said the nursery would be in a building s~parate from his I residence and it would be operated by his wife.
