2Q play areas. The requirement of 75 square feet of outdoor space is a State standard. If the outdoor space is located on existing nitrification fields or space reserved for that purpose, the soil may be compacted or a low pressure system damaged by the pedestrian traffic. The restriction is simply an effort to prevent such a situation from occurring. A concern common to all types of day care facilities is the amount of traffic likely to be generated by such a use. Day care involving less than six children is not licensed by the State or regulated by the Zoning Ordinance. If a large day care home may have up to 15 children, the difference between the two day care arrangements is ten children. In a worst case situation, this would mean that an additional 20 vehicular trips are generated by the use..This is equivalent to the trip generation of two single - family homes. Under the provisions of Article 6.27.2 c) above, the operator may'be faced with upgrading a road to a higher standard. This provision is intended to address specific concerns about traffic and its impact on a road.] ARTICLE 14 - SITE PLAN APPROVAL PROCEDURES Proposed changes /new provisions are highlighted in bold. 14.2 APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS 14.2.1 PROFESSIONAL DESIGN AND CERTIFICATION Each site plan shall be prepared by a registered engineer, landscape architect, architect, or land surveyor; however, in some cases, professional design and certification of the plan may not be required.
