Fiscal Note
The Planning Department estimates that this and several other proposed amendments to move conditional uses to permitted uses may eliminate an estimated 15 conditional uses per year, resulting in reduced conditional use application fees of $7,500. However, City costs for publishing newspaper notices, mailing and staff costs for processing the applications will also be reduced, such that realized efficiencies will likely equal or exceed the reduction in revenues.

Body
DRAFTER'S ANALYSIS: This amendment is to make day care centers in churches in the R1 District a permitted use instead of a conditional use. (This amendment carries through to the R2, R3, R5, R2S, R2T, R2Y and R2Z Districts.) Currently, there is a no definition of day care center. The definition of "nursery school", which is based on the Wisconsin Administrative Code definition of "day care center" is now the definition of "day care center" in Chapter 28, and licensed nursery schools are included in the definition. Terminology changes throughout the code were made for consistency with the new definition.
