Statement of Planning Obiectives
This project is consistent with the Land Use Code and City Plan. The lot is within the Low
Density Residential District (R.L.) zoning. Public and private schools for elementary,
intermediate and high school education is a permitted use subject to review by the Planning
and Zoning Board.
Ridgeview Classical School is a charter school for kindergarten through 126' grade. The total
allowed enrollment by their Charter is 810 students. Current enrollment is 649 students.
This addition is not intended for increasing allowed enrollment but for providing adequate
physical facilities for current students. Classrooms presently are being used for two separate
classes or functions. Orchestra, band and music practice rooms and karate are current
functions occurring in the existing building but need to be more isolated for sound purposes.
These are to be located in this proposed addition.
The large garage at the south side of the property will be removed so as to not be included in
the allowed square footage of the site. The small garage of 590 s.f. will remain to fit within
the allowed 720 s.f of garage area.
The asphalt northeast of the existing building will be removed as well as the modular trailer.
Grass will be installed here with a new chain link fence around for a new playground. The
