DUNN: Our enrollment? Yeah, that's in the, we are still, the deposits are being
<br /> submitted for the coming year, but we are in the 325 to 330 range for next year and well
<br /> below the, the cap there was, in the condition in the Use Permit, are 450.
<br /> YATES: So before you would have to do these improvements that was originally
<br /> supposed to have been done, you would need to have an enrollment of 450 students.
<br /> DUNN: That's what one of the conditions of Use Permit; it says, it says that we would
<br /> need to do that when we constructed the middle school. So we would—we actually don't
<br /> have the physical facilities to get to 450 before we build it, before we build the middle
<br /> school, so it will be the construction of the middle school, I mean in order to get a
<br /> certificate of occupancy for that building, not that our enrollment would get to 450. But
<br /> we are well within, well within the constraints of our current campus.
<br /> YATES: So you currently don't have any plans to do any kind of improvements as far as
<br /> sidewalks or anything like that
<br /> MOOERS: (Indiscernible — simultaneous speech)
<br /> YATES: because I know that you said something, you did mention about the
<br /> neighbors having their hedges all the way out, you know, where it shouldn't be. Because
<br /> if you had to the sidewalk, that's a major production, but if it's something that's required
<br /> by the county, it should be each individual property owners to take care of that, so I'm a
<br /> little bit confused about that. So I want to understand how all that would work, should
<br /> the time come and you had to do that. It just seems like a big undertaking, and maybe
<br /> when the time comes, there will be another reason as to why it can't be done or how it
<br /> has to be done or, you know, all of those questions come into play, so that's why I'm
<br /> asking.
<br /> MOOERS: Well, my understanding is, if all the improvements would be within the
<br /> county right-of-way, is that the county can require us to make the improvements. That's
<br /> typical of what happens with the, anytime you come for a development or approval is
<br /> that, you know, the county will ask you to bring up what is in fact county infrastructure,
<br /> road, sidewalk, etcetera, bring them up to a certain standard, all right? If the property
<br /> was already zoned appropriately, if it wasn't a Use Permit, then typically, the county
<br /> would make those improvements, but that's not the case here, you know. I mean, I will
<br /> point out that, I mean Parker School is a small nonprofit, and like every other
<br /> independent school we lose money out of every student we educate, all right, there is no
<br /> profit margin here, and the more students we have the more money we lose, all right? So
<br /> that's why it's not something where people try to grow a school exponentially, because it
<br /> really doesn't work financially, so we have to support that. So all of the improvements as
<br /> far as the sidewalks and streetlight, whatever, those all have to be funds that are raised
