Case: 24-CUPPA-0159
Dear Neighbor: Our client, Buttry & Brown Development LLC, filed a conditional use permit (CUP) pre-application for the site located at the rear of 12414 Taylorsville Rd. The conditional use permit is to allow a daycare to operate on the site. The proposed daycare is not a part of the WaWa development. This is not a rezoning case. A CUP is issued for a specific use within the existing zoning classification on site. The applicant is proposing a 11,020 S.F. building with associated parking on the approximately 1.8 acre lot. An ingress/egress located on Sweeney Lane is proposed to serve as the primary access to the daycare. Additionally, a vehicular connection to the neighboring WaWa development is proposed through a planned access drive. In accordance with the procedures of Louisville Metro Planning and Design Services, we have been directed to invite you to discuss this proposal before a formal application can be filed.
