with regards to the Traffic Study and stated, "The Traffic Study was acceptable and has

Mr. Bob Ziegenfuss, Civil Engineer, 708 East Colonial Drive, #100, Orlando, Florida:
said that he had been working with Staff since January 2013; based on an analysis of
Primrose Schools across the country it was proposed to have forty (40) parking spaces;
that existing overgrowth will be removed with the development which will increase
visibility; that he met with members of Heritage Park's Homeowner's Association Board
in April and referenced the Primrose facility in Longwood and that they would bring
information about the development to the Homeowners Association; and addressed traffic
concerns.
Further discussion.
Ms. Miranda Elsis, 20813 Peabody Street, Orlando, Florida: as an owner of the
proposed Primrose School and an owner of the Primrose School in Waterford Lakes, Ms.
Elsis explained that at the Primrose School in Waterford Lakes, they have 180 students
enrolled from 150 families and that parking has never been a problem as the range of
drop-off and pick-up times vary.
Mr. Ted Tillman, Corporate Primrose Schools, 83 Virginia Ridge, Dallas, Georgia:
shared that their studies show that it takes about seven to eight (7-8) minutes to drop off a
child and sign them in; thus, with the allotted parking spaces, it would allow for up to a
160 children to feasibly be dropped off in one (1) hour.
Mr. Curtis Elsis, 20813 Peabody Street, Orlando, Florida: as an owner of the proposed
Primrose School and an owner of the Primrose School in Waterford Lakes, Mr. Elsis
