Applications for large family day care homes shall be submitted to the planning division
for development review per Chapter III, Planning Applications, prior to the commencement
of the use. A large family day care home may only be permitted in a single-family
dwelling and shall not be located within seven hundred (700) feet of an existing large
family day care home on the same street or block, unless the applicant applies for
and obtains approval of a minor conditional use permit. Pursuant to Section 1597.46
of the State Health and Safety Code, a large family day care home shall not be subject
to provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act.
The city council may adopt general standards that may be applied to large family day
care home applications on a case-by-case basis. The final review authority may use
these standards to impose conditions upon the approval to achieve the purposes set
forth in section 13-31 and to maintain neighborhood stability and cohesiveness.
