Description
ATV's monthly conversation with County Board members on the major issues discussed at July's Board meeting
A
B
This
is
an
exciting
project
from
a
planning
perspective
as
well.
It
was
a
use
permit
that
the
board
was
hearing,
so
the
actual
use
permit
to
operate
the
childcare
facility,
but
it's
also
a
brand-new
building
being
built
custom
for
the
children's
school
because
it
was
by
right.
That
means
they
don't
have
to
come
in
through
a
lengthy
site
plan
process.
The
the
children's
school
didn't
have
to
engages
extensively
with
the
community,
as
they
might
have
traditionally
done
in
a
site
plan,
but
they
did
a
lot
of
that
anyway,
which
really
is
a
credit
to
them.
B
The
only
other
piece
about
the
program
that
I
think
is
so
exciting
is
that
for
a
long
time
actually
I
think
since
its
founding
in
1987,
the
children's
school
has
partnered
with
something
called
integration
station
which
serves
little
ones
with
disabilities.
The
model
is
very
much
integrate.
Those
sort
of
developmentally
typical
children
and
the
children
with
disabilities
I
have
heard
from
so
many
parents
and
I'm.
B
Surely
we
can
tell
some
stories
too,
not
only
of
those
kids
with
the
disabilities
but
of
the
of
the
children,
a
sort
of
mainstream
program
that
having
those
opportunities
for
integration
is
good
for
everyone,
and
so
I
think
I'm
thrilled
to
see
that
these
programs
could
stay
together.
The
children's
school,
which
was
located
for
a
long
time
at
Reid,
which
is
being
recommissioned
as
a
neighborhood
school,
has
been
looking
for
a
new
home
for
I.
B
C
Not
part
of
it's
not
a
government,
but
it's
a
private
school
that
serves
a
lot
of
folks.
You
know
employees
and
it's
really
an
important
amenity
for
our
employees
and
the
integration
station.
One
I
mean
when
I
when
I
was
on
this
school
board.
It
got
so
every
time
they
would
come
to
talk
to
us
about
their
programs.
I
would
make
sure
I
had
some
Kleenexes,
because
the
stories
would
just
they
were
just
amazing.
C
I
will
never
forget
about
one
child
who
the
doctors
had
said
this
child
would
never
walk
and
the
children's
school
working
with
seeing
his
peers
or
whatever
he
runs,
I
mean
we
had
several
of
these
store
and
it's
just
like.
Oh
my.
So
it's
a
wonderful
program.
It
now
has
a
good,
solid
home.
They
felt
a
little
homeless
from
trying
to
figure
out
where
they
were
gonna
go
so
I'm
just
really
delighted.
It's
here
and
you
know
and
Katie
I
don't
know.
C
If
I
want
to
talk
a
little
bit
more
I
guess
maybe
next
month
about
the
child
care
initiative
that
you're
doing
there
has
I
think
it's
really
excited
so
needed.
I
will
just
say
I
watching
my
my
children
and
but
you
know
struggle
with
their
child
care
and
what
they
need
to
do
and
I
realized.
Oh,
my
heavens,
it
hasn't
gotten
any
better.
Since
I
was
raising
children.
B
B
Even
in
the
district,
which
I
think
surprises
some
folks,
so
the
right
time
to
have
done
this
dedicated
countywide
strategy
about
child
care,
accessibility
and
affordability
was
probably
about
10
years
ago,
but
the
second
best
time
is
now
so
we're
really
looking
forward
to
it
and
we'll
have
a
lot
to
report
about
what
the
board
accepts
and
approves
of
that
plan.
And
some
of
the
the
next
steps
that
the
community
can
be
looking
to
see.
All.
