Public Hearing to consider a conditional use of property located at 2007 FM 2004, being an approximately 3.14 acre site west of Brazos National Bank currently zoned C-1 Commercial to allow a Montessori School Public hearing was called at 6:06 pm Michael Coon stated as of now the developer anticipates to open with only 18 months to five years of age students, which doesn’t meet the qualification of a school. It currently fits the zoning as a daycare. However, in the future, they would hope to service grade level schooling, which would require conditional use. Pat Taylor reported the conditional use will allow for the schooling of children 6 years or older. Mark Brown asked how many students are anticipated and how would the traffic flow. Pat Taylor replied that the initial number is anticipated to be 100 students and in the future they would hope to accommodate up to 250. However, early development would be children under the age of 6 so it would require parents to park and walk in. Frank Blanks asked about security. Grisham Patel replied that the parents will be assigned weekly codes to enter the building and the area will be fenced.
