First, they recommend that the day care definitions used in the zoning ordinance meet those established in current state licensing rules. The current city zoning day care definitions are based on outdated state licensing requirements. Second, they recommend that the city allow day care centers to be established in light industrial areas. Under the proposed new definitions, a family day care program would be one which provides care for not more than te�n children at one time �this compares to s x children allowed under the existing definition); a group family �ay care program would be one which provides care for between ten and fonrteen children at one time (this compares to between six and t� children allowed � under the existing definition) ; a�d a group day care program would be one ! which provides care for more than si,�t children at one time and is Iicensed by � the state as a group day care center (this compares to the current definition , of day care center as any program with more than ten children}; � The other recommended change to the code is that group day care centers be i permitted uses in I-1 (light industrial) Distxicts (day care centers are now � prohibited in these districts) . The rationale for this recommendation is � �hat uses permitted in I-1 zones would not be any more detrimental to a day care centar program than uses permitted in B-3 through B-5 (general and � dow-ntown commercial districts) zones, where day care centers are now permitted. i � Further information on this proposal can be obtained from Planning staff � person Peg9Y Lexau at 228-3230. � 1 � : � � i , , � ��;����ION OF Pl.�LNNING•DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT-CtTY OF SAINT PAUL t •.,,'�". 6�1,:.L ANNEX•25 VYEST FOURTH STREET, SAINT PAUL, MINNESOTA, 55102•TELEPHONE 612-292-1577 � i, �' �� �` ' � r�E t� 4k k '"f`..{�'�i�� L > ! f t Z� � _1� �'� � ti � � � 1 � � � � ` �� E�� :) v'` �,' ) i. � �� � � _ _ � , ��.'_ ' i 7 � a ',� } ,� �S-;� '�-i �'� `i Y j1J �}R: +-y , • I � ��.� 5 � ';"t 'S r / I '.

This spring the Planning Commission conducted a 40-acre study to review and revise the provisions for day care in the zoning code as recommended by the Saint Paul Child Care Task Force. They held a public hearing on the study on July lOth, and received favorable testimony. The Planning Commission resolution recommending approval of the amendments and the 40-acre study report are attached. The main thrust of the recommended revisions is to change the definitions of family day care, group family day care, and day care center programs in our zoning code to match the definitions in state licensing ru�es. The zoning code revisions would also allow day care cente,rs as a principal use in light industrial areas of the city. Currently, day care centers in light industrial areas are only permitted as accessory uses. I strongly support these revisions as a means of making it easier for day care providers to establish their programs in Saint Paul. I urge you to adopt these amendments as recommended by the Planning Commission. If you have any questions on the proposed amendments, please do not hesitate to contact Peggy Lexau of the Planning Division staff at extension 3230.

INTRODUCTION The Saint Paul Planning Commission is proposing several amendments to the city's zoning ordinance based on recommendations from the Saint Paul Child Care Task Force. The Task Force, formed by the Planning Commission in 1985 at the request of the City Council, assessed child care needs and made recommendations on how city resources and services could improve the provision of child care in the city. One of their findings was that current day care definitions of in the Zoning Code are based on outdated licensing requirements, and they recommended that the city revise the zoning code accordingly. Several other revisions are also required to en- sure that our treatment of day care in the zoning code is logical and conducive to a good day care system. II. PROPOSED DEFINITION REVISIONS Under Chapter 60, Section 204, the text is proposed to be revised as follows: (1) Familv Dav Care.

For the two types of day care homes, the major difference between thc proposed dcfinitions and the existing definitions is that of size: the new definitions would allow larger day care homes than those al- lowed in the past. However, since all three types of programs are already permitted in all residential and business districts (the only exception b�ing day care centers in R-1 through R-4 districts, which must be housed in churches, schools or similar facilities), allowing up to four more children per day care home will not bc much different than what is currently allowed. The new day care rules have been in effect for several years, so all day care homes are now licensed according to the new rule. Of approximately 670 day care homes in the city, 640 (or 9596) are licensed for up to ten children. The remaining 30 homes (or 596) are licensed for between eleven and fourteen children. The proposed definition changes would simply ensure that we are using the same definitions as the state and the county in dealing with day care homes. �hanaes in Dav Care Center Definition As mentioned above, the state rule govern- ing day care centers has gone unchanged since its adoption in the early 1970's. However, the way we currently define "group day care center° is closely tied to our definitions of family day care home and group family day care home: anything larger than the first two (over ten children) is considered a center. Since we are recommending that the first two definitions be revised, it is also necessary to revise our definition of day care center. Our current definition of "group day care center" has never matched the state licensing rule definition: we define it as any program with over ten children, while the state defines it as any program with over six children that is conducted in a non-owner occupied building. Our proposed new definition of day care center would correspond with the philosophy behind the proposed new definitions of day care homes: that is, our definitions of the different types of day care programs should correspond directly with those of the state and county to minimize administrative confusion. III. OTHER PROPOSED REVISIONS A. Under Chapter 60, Section 422 (Principal uses permitted in an RT-1 Two- Family Residential District): (3) �r��#'-a�-da�-ea�e and group day care. Discussion The reason for deleting the phrase as shown above is that "group family day care" is already permitted in paragraph (1), which permits all principal uses permitted in the R-1 through R-4 residential districts. 2 . � . t, /�-��%�`� / B. Under Chapter 60, Section 612 (Principal uses permitted in an I-1 Industrial District): (1) All principal uses permitted in the B-3 Business District except family day care, �i group family day care,ead-gfe�p-��y�-e�ra. -- and; under Chapter 60, Section 614 (Principal uses permitted subject to special conditions in I-I Industrial District): (8) �x��c�a�-eaFo-;pro-videc�-��ret-s�ah-p�egra�a3-is-eceesser�y-to� p�t�r- oi�a��s���ffiit��d-i�-��re-E�i�3�f�o� Discussion Group day care centers are currently prohibited in I-1 and I-2 districts, except if they are accessory to principal uses permitted in the district. This revision would permit group day care centers to be established as a principal use in I-1 districts. The rationale behind this revision is that the uses permitted in I-1 zones would not be any more detrimental to a day care center program than uses permitted in B-3 through B-5 zones, where day care centers are now permitted. 3 - , . . _ �� � """^��° CITY OF SAINT PAUL h.`LLTi p..�i �. �; OFFICE OF THE CITY CLERK ;: i°� ;; + �°� ALBERT B.
