Dear Mr. Thomas. rP� -777 This is to follow up on our conversation in your office on Tuesday June 2nd, 2007. As it was indicated to you and Mr. Charles Thistlethwaite, Sold Rock Ranch School has moved back to 123 Zonalea Lane, Oroville. Prior to leaving for the 8 months of absence we had 12 students. In the process we found out that the use permit of 123 Zonalea Lane does not allow more that 8 students. For this reason we are asking the Planning Department Commission to review our situation and allow us to have 5 students commute on a daily basis for schooling. Our objective is to turn in an application for use permit for construction of a dorm that could accommodate 30 students with the full plan as was discussed with you.

(SB) (UP 99-04) (VIDEO) Mr. Betts gave a brief summary of the project. He said there is a group home in operation at this time. He said the request is to go from 6 to 8 beds. He noted one letter from Mr. and Mrs. Roybal who were concerned about the condition of the wood fence between them and the increase in traffic on a dirt road. The hearing was opened to the public. Joel Davisson said this is the first time he has heard about the problem with the fence. He said the fence was there 10 years ago and he barely looks at it. He said it is about 2-300 feet long. Thersa Thurmon said she does not disagree with the need for the group home. She said she is not against the group home. She said she is concerned with the increase traffic on the dirt road. She said she wants the road to remain a private road. She wants the dust and speed kept down on the road. She said the Davissons have been good neighbors and she was not opposed to the increase in the group home. The hearing was closed. Commissioner Leland said the Commission could ask the applicant to keep the speed and dust down on the road without enforcing a condition. He felt the neighbors could work it out. Commissioner Cage asked Mr. Davisson if the road floods? Mr. Davisson said there is no flooding problems connected with this road. He said he will work with the neighbor to keep the dust down on the road. It was moved by Commissioner Nelson, seconded by Commissioner Cage, and unanimously carried for approval, noting the concerns of the neighbors on dust and speed on the access road, of a Use Permit #99-04 for Joel and Wendy Davisson, subject to the findings and conditions listed below: Section 1: Environmental Findings.

The group home operates under a license from the State of California. According to the applicant, approximately half of the girls are on probation for various offenses, and the other half placed in the home by Child Protective Services. The girls are supervised 24 hours per day, either by the staff or by teachers while they attend school. The girls are not allowed to drive. Some of the girls take a bus to school, while others are driven. The applicants live on the site and the four other staff members live off the site. According to the applicants, the change from 6 to 8 beds will not require any additional staff members. The project site is located in a rural area, with surrounding parcels ranging in size from 3 to 5 acres. The site has been developed with a 3,500 sq. ft. single-family dwelling unit which is used for the group home, a large barn, garage, and a swimming pool. Horses are kept on the site. Sewage disposal is handled by an on-site septic tank/leachfield system and domestic water is supplied by an on-site well. CEQA ISSUES: This project is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act under a Class 3 Exemption. ANALYSIS: The proposed expansion of a group home from 6 beds to 8 beds is consistent with the Butte County General Plan Agricultural -Residential land use designation which allows group quarters and care homes as secondary uses. Since the Unclassified zoning of the site is consistent with the General Plan designation, the Use Permit can be considered for discretionary approval. Because of the uses allowed under the current zoning and General Plan designation, and the nature and character of the use itself, the proposal would not impair the integrity and character of the zone ArButte County Department of Development Services Agenda Report ArPage 1 the uses allowed under the current zoning and General Plan designation, and the nature and character of the use itself, the proposal would not impair the integrity and character of the zone in which the land lies. The expansion will not require any physical expansion of the existing group home. No additional staff members will be required for the expansion to 8 beds. The Butte County Building Division is requesting that the group home dwelling meet the 1995 California Building Code requirements for a group home (R -DIV 2.2) occupancy. They are also requesting that fire clearance be obtained from the State Fire Marshall's Office for a group home occupancy. Both of these requests have been added as conditions of approval in response to the change of occupancy standards triggered by the expansion to 8 beds. It should be noted that the group home may already meet these requirements. If not, the applicants will be required to make the needed changes to the structure as a condition of the Use Permit. ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION: This application is categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA under a Class 3 exemption.

Before any permanent decision is made regarding a use permit for Solid Rock Ranch School, I want the opportunity to discuss with our attorney Mr. Raoul LeClerc, what our rights are in regard to the amount of traffic that passes on Zonalea Lane (a private road that crosses our property on the south end) to access the school. I have an appointment with Mr. LeClerc at 4 p.m. Tu., July 10, 2007 to discuss the matter. I told Mr. Masumbuko that I needed to discuss with Planning and Mr. LeClerc the issues that follow. The recorded easement for parcel 35 to cross our parcel 041-480-030 using Zonalea Lane, is based on a legal and binding contract that states the use of the easement (known as Zonalea Lane) is to be used as it was used historically. "Releasees agree that the easement is granted for the specific purpose of ingress and egress to and from their property as it has been historically used by Releasees, residents, guests and invitees. The easement is not to be construed as a public roadway or for any other purpose." A copy of that contract was given to Chris Thomas to put in parcel 35's planning file in summer 2006. That contract states it is binding on successors in interest. If you need another copy of the contract, please let me know. John Christofferson surveyed that easement (Zonalea Lane) in 1994 and has a survey map of the road. If you look in the Environmental file for parcel 35, you will see 2 descriptions of what its "historical use" is, in the paperwork submitted to expand Oak Lake Ranch Group Home from 6 to 8 beds. Note: In 1998 when Joel Davisson went before the Butte County Planning Commission applying for a use permit to expand a foster group home from 6 to 8 beds, we were present and stated that as long as the traffic did not increase, we did not object, but that we wanted to reserve the right to come back to revoke our approval should traffic increase. I recently obtained a copy of the minutes from that meeting and though they did mention we were concerned about traffic, it did not mention we wanted the right to revoke our permission should traffic increase. We were assured by Davisson at that meeting that the traffic would not increase. We did not know at that time, and no one explained to us, that a use permit runs with the land. Now, we are reluctant to give up our property rights under the binding contract for use' of Zonalea Ln., to a use permit for parcel 35 for anything above 8 beds without first consulting legal counsel. Description One: #18 Attached Page — Describes Joel and Wendy Davisson as the owners of Oak Lake Ranch, they employee 3 full time and 2 part time staff. They stated the change from 6 to 8 beds will not change the present staffing pattern. Description Two: Butte County Planning Commission Agenda Report dated Nov. 12, 1998. It states the girls are 14-18 years of age. It states the girls are not allowed to drive. The applicants (Joel and Wendy Davisson) live on the site, and the four other staff members live off the site. (note the discrepancy in number of staff members from previous description, 5 vs 4) They claim the change from 6 to 8 beds will not require any additional staff members. The proposed expansion will not increase the number of vehicle trips in the project area. No increase in noise level. LetterToPlanning.doc Created on 7/6/2007 9:03:00 AM Page 1 of 3 0 • Please note these planning notes on file in your office: RF106-0052: 11114/06 "Requested use permit information for a school August 9, 2006; apparently school is under new management, number of students and mission have changed." There was a letter sent to Andre "Mas" Masumbuko in August, 2006 telling him that a new use permit would be required. My Note: Reference above to school under new management is in error. There was never a school there before. The property was owned previously by Joel and Wendy Davisson who ran a 8 bed foster group home for girls 14-18 years of age, staff stayed off site, only the Davissons lived on site. The property was sold to Thomas Pooler on September 2, 2005. Solid Rock Ranch School leased the property from Pooler and began a school without proper permits in apprx. Oct. 2005, then left in Oct. 2006, moving their school to Whitmore, CA. The school returned to parcel 35 on Monday, July 2, 2007. RF106-0067 12/8/06 UP 99-04 allowed expansion of group home for girls from 6 to 8 beds — that use has not been operating since circa 2005. A second school was at the site in 2005/06 (Solid Rock Ranch School); operator was told a new Use Permit would be required; that user has evidently left. A neighbor believes a new school/group home may be opened on the site. Such a use would require a new use permit. My Note: Again, the reference to a second school is in error. There was never a school there in the first place, there was a group home for girls only. R F 106-0070 12/18/2006 A neighbor visited Development Services expressing concern that the school — apparently empty — was going to be reopened without proper permits and public input. Noted there were many problems for neighbors with the earlier schools. Told him any new school facility would require a use permit and that he would be noticed. My Note: There was NEVER a school there previously. There was a foster care group home for girls age 14-18, run by Environmental Alternatives and licensed by Community Care Licensing. It is my understanding from the telephone message left by Chris Thomas on 7/3/07 that there was an agreement to allow the Solid Rock Ranch School to keep 8 students on site, 4 off site to be brought in by vehicle daily. That would allow 12 students on site at a time without any public input from neighbors. We do not object to 8 students being on site, but adding an additional 4 students during the day overburdens their easement across Zonalea Lane which is on our property on its southern end. When my husband and I spoke last week to Andre "Mas" Masumbuko it was our understanding that parcel 35 would house the school, 8 students would be on site, and I think Mas said "6" students would be off site at anew satellite campus and those students would complete their education via computer on the off site campus. From the message that Chris Thomas left on my voicemail, Solid Rock Ranch School was told they only need use permit minor amendment to allow an additional 4 boys on site during the day. We feel that a new use permit is required as per your regulations. We contend that a foster group home for 8 girls run by owners Joel and Wendy Davisson under Environmental Alternatives and regulated by Community Care Licensing is very different than a private, for pay, boarding school that is run by Andre "Mas" Masumbuko. As far as we can tell there is no government oversight of private schools other than requiring a CDS Code and a private school affidavit (administrative requirements only). Some private schools in Butte County do have business licenses. Parcel 35 is owned now by Thomas Pooler. The school services young men who are ADD, ADHD, and troubled youth. The school also provides a distance learning high school diploma program. We are unsure how these students are reported to the California Department of Education when they file their private school affidavit and how it would affect us as to these distant learning parents occasionally coming on site. It is our understanding that the school has 7 full time staff, and that 5 of the staff reside on Parcel 35 along with the 8 boys. The school description states that boys may be allowed to drive to jobs. The school has family weekends a few times LetterToPlanning.doc Created on 7/6/2007 9:03:00 AM Page 2 of 3 a year where family members come on site and camp out. We are concerned about our property being devalued from increased traffic. Zonalea Lane passes directly in front of our home and is a very dusty dirt road. A new use permit would allow our concerns to be addressed and any issues to be resolved. Parcel 35 is now owned by Thomas Pooler. A private for pay school is a different use of the premises than a foster group home, and the number and type of students, type of facility, and number of staff using the premises has changed dramatically from how it was used historically. We feel after reviewing your guidelines that a new use permit should be required as your department indicated in RF106-0076. We believe that our neighbors as well as us are legally entitled to present input into any use permit approved for a boy's private school for ADD, ADHD and troubled youth that borders their/our property, especially since neighbors were told last year that they would be noticed if the school moved back and that a new use permit would be required. I would like to talk first with my attorney as to our legal rights regarding parcel 35's easement across our property, then talk with Planning and Mr. Masumbuko and/or Mr. Pooler to. see if we can work out some sort of agreement that would be fair and agreeable to Mr. Masumbuko and Mr. Pooler, us, and our neighbors. At this point in time, I have 2 requests for Tim Snellings and/or Chuck Thistlethwaite: 1. 1 would like to know if it is possible for planning to issue use permits that do NOT run with the land, but rather are specific to the applicant. 2. Please let me know how Planning will handle the use permit for parcel 041-480-035 for Solid Rock Ranch School.

Page 2 of 5 4 According to the Time Magazine of April 17 front page title "Nation Drop Out" 30% of students will drop out from high school. The article continues saying that 50% of high school students from the Black and the Hispanic community will not graduate. We also know that every day 1,435 teenagers attempt suicide, 15,006 of that age group use drugs and 3,506 of the high school age students run away from home. "My seventeen year old son had not gone to school for a couple of months in his senior high school when we met Mas Masumbuko. We were very desperate for help after exhausting school counselors, psychologists, psychiatrists and a behavior care facility. He was in depression and turned into computer games and internet chats to feel better. Thanks God, he didn't go into drugs or alcohol. His first semester was shot, two F's and three 1's. 1 started checking out boarding schools and boot camps. The dilemma was he was very close to graduation and college being at risk throwing away all the previous work he has done. Fortunately, Mas has a solution, a home intervention program. My son stayed at home and Mas came to the house every week with unlimited access through the phone during the week if he needs to talk to him. 1 have never met anyone who has the dedication and passion for what he does. He is very practical and effective with his methods and solutions. He doesn't just deal with the symptoms but looks for the root cause of what is happening and start the solution there. He doesn't leave any stone unturned for solutions even going back to our childhood as parents which impacted our parenting skills. He was very effective with dealing with the school as well. To sum it up, what differentiated him was his passion to help the teens and it shows. My son has now caught up with his previous semester classes and the current semester with A's and 8's and scored 1490 in SAT. He is a much happier person and has learned how to cope with his depression. We have much better family dynamics as well. We are very fortunate to meet Mas. " We have a solution!

All names, whether real or fictitious, of the person, firm association, partnership, or corporation under which it had done and is doing business b.

In addition, the owner or other head of the private school must sign the statement under "penalty of pedury." 5. When do I need to file the Affidavit? All private schools are required to file an Affidavit each year between October 1 and October 15 (EC 33190). 6. What is the Affidavit used for? Private. Schools Frequently Asked Qtions - Correspondence/Documents (CA*t of Education) Page 3 of 8 -I The Affidavit is a registration document. Itis used to report annual information required by law from private, full-time day and boarding schools. For schools reporting six or more students, the information is then used to post the California Private School Directory at http://www.cde.ca.gov/ds/si/ps/index.asp. Filing the Private School Affidavit does not mean that the State of California or any accrediting agency has made any evaluation, recognition, approval, or endorsement of the school or course (EC 33190). The Affidavit is not a license or authorization to operate a private school. 7. Why is it important to file the Affidavit? See Question 2. Operators of private schools are required by law to file a Private School Affidavit. In addition, the law provides an exemption from compulsory public school attendance for children who are being instructed in a private, full-time day school (EC 48200, 48220, 48222), so long as certain conditions are met: instruction must be provided by persons capable of teaching; and instruction must be in English and offered in the several branches of study required to be taught in California's public schools. In addition, attendance must be kept in a register that indicates every absence of the pupil from a half day or more of attendance. For the exemption from the compulsory attendance law to be valid, the attendance supervisor of the public school district must verify that the private school has filed the annual Private School Affidavit required by EC Section 33190. If the school has nonprofit tax status, the eligibility of that school's students, teachers and other educational personnel to participate in various federally funded programs is contingent upon the annual filing of the Affidavit. 8. Is a private school the same as a nonpublic school? No. Some private schools are also nonpublic schools; most are not. See the definition that follows. 9. What is a nonpublic school or certified nonpublic school? A nonpublic, nonsectarian school means a private school that is certified by the California Department of Education to provide special education and related services to individuals with exceptional needs pursuant to an individualized education program. The school may serve both public school students and/or private school students. The school may be nonprofit or proprietary. 10. Does a nonpublic school have to file the Private School Affidavit? Yes. 11. What is the compulsory education law? California's compulsory education law (EC 48200) requires each person between six and eighteen years of age to attend public, full-time day school, and requires their parents or guardians to send them, unless legally exempt. The two principal exemptions are (1) instruction in a private, full-time day school, --or (2) instruction by a tutor or other person holding a valid California teaching credential for the grade level being taught (EC 48220, 48222, 48224). 12. __Other than traditional public school classrooms, what choices are available for my child's education? California law explicitly recognizes four choices available to parents who wish to seek an educational setting other than a traditional public school classroom for their child: A. A tutor who holds a current California teaching credential for the grade level being taught (EC 48224). The tutor must provide instruction: ■ In the English language In all the branches of study required in the public schools i. For at least 175 days per calendar year For at least three hours a day between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Because the tutor must provide instruction in all branches of study required in the public schools, the Multiple Subject Teaching Credential satisfies the credential requirement at all grade levels. The Single Subject Teaching Credential is not sufficient at any grade level. The Multiple Subject Teaching Credential is valid for kindergarten through grade twelve in self- contained classrooms, whereas the Single Subject Credential authorizes teaching a special subject only, such as math or English. Further credential information is available from the California Commission for Teacher Credentialing Web site at http://www.ctc.ca..qov (Outside Source). Private. Schools Frequently Asked Qtions - Correspondence/Documents (C pt of Education) The credentialed tutor may be the parent or any person employed by the parent. A tutor is not required to file the Private School Affidavit. Page 4 of 8 B. A private full-time day school or boarding school (EC 48222) where instruction is provided by "persons capable of teaching," that keeps an attendance register indicating clearly every absence of the pupil from school for a half day or more during each day the school is maintained during the year, and that provides instruction in the English language and all the branches of study required in California public schools. The Private School Affidavit must be filed annually by the private school. Independent study through a public school district or county office of education (EC 51745 and following), where the student is enrolled in a school of the district and enters into a written agreement, prior to beginning independent study, that specifies the curriculum and methods of study, the arrangements for meeting with the teacher and submitting assignments, and other information. Independent study is an alternative to classroom instruction that is offered by many public school districts pursuant to EC sections 51745 and following. Independent study is not an exemption from public school attendance. Rather, it is an instructional strategy that allows students to carry on their public school education outside the classroom based on a written agreement. The agreement includes requirements consistent with the local school district's course of study. A certificated employee of the district is designated as the "supervising teacher," and this person makes the assignments, evaluates the student's work, and assigns grades. A child with exceptional needs may participate in independent study only if his or her individualized education program, developed pursuant to EC sections 56340 and following, provides for that participation (EC 51745(c)). If a student's school district does not offer independent study, parents are encouraged to contact their county office of.education regarding the availability of independent study through the county or through other districts in their area. Contact your local school district or county office of education for more information. D. Enrollment in a charter school organized in accordance with EC sections 47600 and following. A charter school is a public school, and it may provide instruction in any of grades kindergarten through twelve. A charter school is usually created or organized by a group of teachers, parent and community leaders or a community-based organization, and it is usually sponsored by an existing local public school board or county board of education. Specific goals and operating procedures for the charter school are detailed in an agreement (or "charter") between the sponsoring board and charter organizers. More information regarding charter schools is available on the CDE Web. site at hftr)://www.cde.ca.gov/sp/cs/. 13. Is home schooling recognized in California as exempting a student from public school attendance? California statutes do not explicitly authorize home schooling. Whether a home schooled child is attending a private school, and therefore is exempt from public school attendance, is a decision made by local school districts and law enforcement authorities. 14. May a parent who is home schooling his or her own child file a Private School Affidavit? Yes. A parent offering or providing private school instruction and who meets the requirements of EC Section 33190 may file an Affidavit in the manner described. However, filing such an Affidavit with the CDE does not constitute any opinion by the CDE as to whether a student enrolled in that school is exempt from public school attendance. 15. I.have filed the Private School Affidavit certifying that I maintain all of the required private school records. If the attendance supervisor from the public school district verifies the filing of the Affidavit, - am I also required to show the records to the attendance supervisor? Yes. EC Section 48222 requires that private schools maintain attendance records in a register that records the absence of a pupil for the school for a half day or more during any day that school is maintained. In addition, EC Section 33190 requires the annual filing of the Affidavit, and EC Section 48222 provides that a child's exemption from public school is not valid until the district's attendance supervisor has verified the filing of the Affidavit. The certification on the Affidavit is not a Private Schools Frequently Asked Qtions - Correspondence/Documents (C pt of Education) Page 5 of 8 substitute for sh wing the attendance records to the attendance supervisor. By reviewing these records, the attendance supervisor can confirm a student's attendance at the private school. 16. 1 am planning to use a correspondence course to teach my child at home. The umbrella organization that provides the course also provides testing, assigns the grades, and provides the diploma. Is this an exemption from the compulsory attendance law? California law does not recognize correspondence courses as exempting a child from public school' Mattendance Whether.this situation could qualify as private school instruction would-dependon whether -the-require rents specified in EC Section 33190 were met. In addition, the question of whether a home '""schooled child is attending private school, and therefore is exempt from public school attendance, is a decision made by local school districts and law enforcementrauthorities' 17. 1 filed a Private School Affidavit.

Why don't I have a CDS code? Why am 1 not listed in the California Private School Directory? The County -District -School (CDS) Code system is an administrative system for tracking schools. Private schools with five or fewer students are not listed in the California Private School Directory. The filing of the Affidavit is not evidence that the entity is a private school or that the entity has been evaluated or approved by the state or any governmental agency. The CDE is prohibited by the Budget Act from using funds to compile information on private schools with five or fewer students. 20. Who can have access to the Private School Affidavits?

The schools in my area refuse to place my child in what I believe is the appropriate grade level and are not accepting the credits my child has earned through home schooling. May the schools refuse to accept credits earned through home schooling? There is no law requiring that "credits" granted by a parent who has been teaching his or her own child be accepted by public or private schools. Both private schools and public schools establish their own policies regarding the evaluation and placement of new enrollees. Both have discretion to make this determination on the basis of assessments such as "end -of -course" tests or other methods they deem suitable. 22. 1 am transferring my child from a private school to a public school.

Page 6 of 8 23. 1 am transferring my child to a different private school, but the private school my child was attending will not release his or her records. What should I do? Thee is no state law governing the release of pupil records by one private school to another. When a student moves from a private school to a public school, or from a public school to a private school, the law requires that the student's permanent record, or a copy, be transferred by the former school when requested by the receiving school (EC 49068). A private school cannot refuse to transfer student records to a requesting school because of any charges, including tuition or fees, that are owed by the student or parent. (Califomia Code of Regulations, Title 5, Section 438(c)). However, a private school may keep certain records from the parents, if monies are owed for property damage or a failure to return school property, provided that the governing body of the school has established rules governing procedures for withholding those records (EC 48904(b)). ' 24. Does the CDE accredit private schools? No. California law does not require public o"r private schools to be accredited,'and the State does not .` accredit schools. Most public high schools are accredited, and many private schools are accredited by a variety of accrediting organizations. For example, the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) accredits public and private schools. You may call WASC at (650) 696-1060 or visit its Web site at http://www.wascweb.org (Outside Source). 25. My child is attending a private school. I have a complaint against his or her school/teacher. With whom do I talk if I am unable to reach a resolution with the private school administration? Many nonprofit private schools are affiliated with administrative organizations or service agencies that may provide assistance in resolving a complaint. A number of such organizations are listed at hftr)://www.capso.or-q/members.html (Outside Source). The CDE has no authority over private schools and does not investigate complaints agar hem.

What do I do if the telephone number listed on the Affidavit is disconnected? The last Affidavit filed by a closed private school is the most complete and current information held by CDE. 28. What if my private school did not file an Affidavit? If your school did not file an Affidavit, the CDE will have no record and cannot provide any information. 29. 1 am planning to open a private school. What do I need to do? You can access California laws at http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/calaw.htmi (Outside Source). The compulsory education law and the exemptions from public school attendance are in the EC sections 48200, 48220, 48222, and 48224. The requirement for private elementary and high schools to file an annual Affidavit is in EC Section 33190. The prohibition on hiring persons who have been convicted of certain crimes is in EC Section 44237. 30. How can I get a list of private schools in my area? How can I get a list of private schools in California? You can view the data of all private elementary and high schools that have filed an Affidavit with the CDE and have six or more students at http://www.cde.ca.gov/ds/si/ps/index.asp. The schools are listed alphabetically by name within each county. A listing is not evidence that the entity is actually a private school, nor that the entity has undergone any evaluation by the state or been approved in any way by any state or other government agency. Each school listing includes the following information: .. Name of the school Contact information ■ Enrollment ■ Religious affiliation (if any) Gender restrictions (boys or girls) ■ Boarding information ■ Special education programs (if any) 31. How do I locate a good private school in my area? The CDE has no authority over private schools and neither collects any information on student performance nor evaluates private school instructional programs. Because private schools reflect a diversity of philosophical orientations, curricular emphases, and instructional methods, no single test or evaluation instrument can provide a valid indicator of quality across schools. Given such diversity, most private schools employ evaluation procedures (which frequently include various tests) that are linked to their particular educational goals and programs of instruction. When visiting a private school, you should feel free to ask its administrators to explain how student growth and achievement are evaluated and how the school compares its overall achievement to that of other schools. A number of private school organizations may be of assistance in locating a private school in your area. Reference to the following organization and the schools represented does not imply an endorsement on the part of the CDE: http://www.capso.org/members.htmi (Outside Source). 32. Does the CDE provide a rating or ranking of private schools? What information is available regarding private schools? The CDE neither collects nor has access to comparative data regarding private schools. The following guidance provided by the California Association of Private School Organizations (CAPSO) may be helpful to those interested in comparing and evaluating various private schools: .,)Private Schools Frequently Asked QWools tions - Correspondence/Documents (C pt of Education) Page 8 of 8 Private are committed to the principle of direct accountability to students and their parents. Accountability is facilitated when schools provide timely, credible and appropriate information about students' growth and achievement to all partners in the learning process — students, parents, teachers, and school leadership. Private schools use a variety of evaluative measures and procedures to collect, organize, and report such information. These may include a variety of tests (teacher -created, diagnostic, standardized, norm and/or criterion -referenced), assessments of student work, both by teachers (in the form of detailed observations, reports and conferencing), students (through journals and self -assessments), or both (e.g., through portfolio assessment). Parents who are interested in choosing a private school for their child(ren) should make a point of asking the principal, head of school, or other appropriate administrator, how the school assesses, interprets, and reports student growth and achievement. If a school administers a standardized test, ask for information regarding the school's performance in comparison to other schools. Keep in mind that tests are not the only means of collecting information about student progress (and teacher effectiveness), and that many private schools pursue important goals (e.g. moral development, creativity, holistic thinking, etc.) that are not easily or meaningfully captured by a test score. If a school claims to pursue such goals, ask how student growth is evaluated. Finally, parents should also ask what a school does with the evaluative information it collects. A useful evaluation system not only sheds light upon student progress, it also provides important feedback for teacher improvement and curriculum development. Good schools take pride in their approach to evaluation. 33. 1 am a teacher and am looking for a position in a private school in California. Where do I start? Contact the private schools directly.

(SB) (REZ98-04) Mr. Betts said that staff has requested comments from Fish and Game. He said he called the Wildlife Biologist, but has not received their official comments. He said the applicant requests this be continued to December 10, 1998. The hearing was opened to the public. It was moved by Commissioner Cage, seconded by Commissioner Leland, and unanimously carried to continue this hearing to December 10, 1998 at 9:00 a.m.. Joel and Wendy Davisson - (Item determined to be categorically exempt from environmental review) Use Permit to expand an existing group home from six beds to eight beds on property zoned AU@ (Unclassified) located at 123 Zonalea Lane, approximately 800 feet west of Cherokee Road, identified as AP 041-480-035, Cherokee. (SB) (UP 99-04) (VIDEO) # BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION # MINUTES # NOVEMBER 42, 1998 # PAGE 2# Mr. Betts gave a brief summary of the project. He said there is a group home in operation at this time. He said the request is to go from 6 to 8 beds. He noted one letter from Mr. and Mrs. Roybal who were concerned about the condition of the wood fence between them and the increase in traffic on a dirt road. The hearing was opened to the public. Joel Davisson said this is the first time he has heard about the problem with the fence. He said the fence was there 10 years ago and he barely looks at it. He said it is about 2-300 feet long. Thersa Thurmon said she does not disagree with the need for the group home. She said she is not against the group home. She said she is concerned with the increase traffic on the dirt road. She said she wants the road to remain a private road. She wants the dust and speed kept down on the road. She said the Davissons have been good neighbors and she was not opposed to the increase in the group home. The hearing was closed. Commissioner. Leland said the Commission could ask the applicant to keep the speed and dust down on the road without enforcing a condition. He felt the neighbors could work it out. Commissioner Cage asked Mr. Davisson if the road floods? Mr. Davisson said there is no flooding problems connected with this road. He said he will work with the neighbor to keep the dust down on the road. It was moved by Commissioner Nelson, seconded by Commissioner Cage, and unanimously carried for approval, noting the concerns of the neighbors on dust and speed on the access road, of a Use Permit #99-04 for Joel and Wendy Davisson, subject to the findings and conditions listed below: Section 1: Environmental Findings. A. This application has been determined to be categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA under a Class 3 Exemption. Section 2: Zoning Ordinance Findings. A. The proposed use of the property will not impair the integrity and character of the zone in which the land lies and that the use would not be unreasonably incompatible with, or injurious to, surrounding property, or detrimental to the health, safety and general welfare of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood, or to the general health, welfare and safety of the County because: The proposed use will not increase the noise level in the project area; and 2. The proposed expansion will not increase the number of vehicle trips in the project area; and 3. No additional staff members will be required for the expansion; and 4. No new structures will be required for the expansion; and # BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION # MINUTES # NOVEMBER 12, 1998 # PAGE 3# 5. The group home occupants are supervised 24 hours per day. B. The proposed project is a SecondaryUse under the Agricultural -Residential General Plan Land Use designation and is conditionally consistent with the U (Unclassified) Zoning District. Section 3: Action A. Subject to the findings indicated in Sections 1 and 2 of this report, approve Use Permit 99-04, for. Joel and Wendy Davisson, to expand an existing group home from six beds to eight beds. Approval shall be subject to the following conditions@ Conditions of Approval: 1. . Building identification and/or addresses shall be installed'in conformance with Public Resources Code 4290 and shall be posted at the beginning of building construction and maintained continuously thereafter. 2. Comply with the Uniform Building Code for property line clearances considering use, area and fire - resistiveness of existing buildings. Existing building(s) shall be made to comply with current Building and Zoning regulations for the intended new use of the building. 4. Building permits are required to convert single family dwelling to a group home (R -DIV 2.2 occupancy - 1995 California Building Code). Prior to issuance of the Use Permit obtain building permits from the Building Division. 5. Prior to issuance of the Use Permit, obtain fire clearance from the State Fire Marshall=s Office for R -DIV 2.2 occupancy. 6. Applicant must also comply with all other applicable State and local statutes, ordinances and regulations. Pacific Bell Mobile Services - proposed Negative Declaration with mitigation measures regarding environmental impacts and Use Permit for a 103 ft. tall monopole communications tower as a public/quasi-public use on property zoned SR -1 (Suburban Residential - 1 acre parcels) located on the east side of Mariposa Avenue, approximately .32 mile north of East Avenue, at 2760 Mariposa Avenue (Box Nursery), identified as AP 048-061-052, Chico. (SB) (UP 99-02) (VIDEO) A video of the project was shown. Mr. Betts gave a brief summary. He said there are two concerns, safety and aesthetics. He said the FAA Part 77 Analysis report did not recommend any striping, but did recommend flagging and lighting on the crane while installing the tower and for the crane to be lowered at night. ALUC recommended the top 29 ft. of the tower be painted with orange and white striping. Staff said they are not recommending the orange and white striping because this is in a residential area. He said they # BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION # MINUTES # NOVEMBER 12, 1998 # PAGE 4# • are asking for an architectural survey be performed on what color to paint the tower. He noted a letter received from Harold Carlson and Linnea Hanson concerned with the height of the tower and danger from micro -waves. Commissioner Leland said he drove out to this area. He said there are high PG&E lines in the area between this site and the airport. The hearing was opened to the public. Sandie Rugroden, Pac Bell, said they will paint the tower any color required. Commissioner Leland asked about co -locating on the PG&E high power lines north of his location? Ms. Rugroden said there would be too much interference and the lines are too far to the north. She said Pac Bell does not have an agreement with PG&E at this time. Commissioner Nelson asked if the tower could be lower? Ms. Rugroden said this is the height they need. She said they are trying to connect to another site on the northwest side of Chico. Commissioner Leland said they need to look at this as a residential area even though it is not built out. Harold Carlson said he was concerned with the tower and is against this use permit. He said the area will grow and he would like to see this kept as residential. Fred Gerst, ALUC Commissioner, said if ALUC feels certain conditions are necessary, the Commission would have to make overriding findings to delete or change those conditions. He said he would like the Commission to ask ALUC to come up with standards for these towers. He did not think this was the proper location. He said strobe lights are the best and all lights should be shielded from the ground. Keith Bray, NEXTEL Corp., said he was in favor of this project. He said NEXTEL will co -locate with this tower in the future at 80 ft. Commissioner Cage asked the purpose of the tower? Mr. Bray said this tower will be part of a growing network. Commissioner Leland asked if they could compensate for a shorter tower by increasing the voltage? Mr. Bray said he did not think so. Commissioner Nelson said he did not see the need for a 100 ft. tower in this area. Commissioner Leland challenged that this is an all or nothing proposal with height or location. He said he was going on the assumption that there are alternative locations. He said the aesthetic concern was a major concern. # BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION # MINUTES # NOVEMBER 12, 1998 # PAGE 5# Ms. Rugroden said a tower down to 50 feet would eliminate this site for Pac Bell. She said they did test other sites in the area and this was the best site. Commissioner Nelson discussed the area on East Avenue. The hearing was closed. Mr. Parilo said the Commission, in order to approve this application, needs to find it will not impair the integrity and character of the zone and would not be unreasonably incompatible with surrounding property, or detrimental to the neighborhood. He said the Commission may want an engineer present. Commissioner Leland said they do want the service in the Chico area, but on the other hand there is the impact to a residential neighborhood. He discussed the necessity level and said there should be a necessity analysis done on these types of projects. Chairman Lambert said staff and the Commission with ALUC needs to set up criteria for different areas. Commissioner Nelson said he did not want these towers in residential areas or areas to be developed residential. He was in favor of denying this project. It was moved by Commissioner Nelson to deny the Use Permit, UP 99-02 for Pac Bell for a 103 foot high communication tower finding that this is the wrong location. The motion died for a lack of a second. It was moved by Commissioner Leland, seconded by Commissioner Cage, and carried to defer this application for one month to January 14, 1998, at 9:00 a.m., to provide the Commission with a necessity analysis. Commissioner Mooney said this does not impair the neighborhood because the area is not built out.

Mr. Betts said there are no conditions for the clubhouse. Mr. Betts said with Condition 15 this is true. He said the highest nets will be 50 ft. high. Commissioner Cage discussed the future traffic at Highway 70 and Ophir. Mr. Betts said there will not be any major increase at a specific time. He said a fire hydrant system is not required. The hearing was opened to the public. Donna Decker, BBA Engineering, asked that the Use Permit be issued to Ricke Robinson and not BBA. She said Condition 9 will be a high cost to the applicant. She said there will be a 3000 sq. ft. mobile home for the club house and the remainder will be driving range. She asked that Condition 9 be deleted. Commissioner Mooney said when the building permits are applied for Condition 9 will have to be met. Ms. Becker said there will be 50 ft. nets on the north and south sides. Towards Pacific Heights Road there will be 12 ft. nets 225 ft. from the road. The hearing was closed.

APN 040-480-035 Dear Mr. Pooler, It has come to the attention of the Department of Development Services that a potential violation of the above mentioned use permit, that permitted the expansion of a group home from six to eight beds, has occurred. The use permit specifically states that failure to comply with the conditions of specified herein as the basis for approval of application and issuance of Permit, constitutes cause for the revocation of said permit in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Butte County Zoning Ordinance, including Butte County Code Sec. 24-45.65. I have enclosed a copy of the use permit for your review. If it is determined that a violation is occurring, you have two options: 1. Comply with the requirements of the use permit for up to eight beds (kids); or 2. Apply for a new use permit to increase the number of beds (kids). If you have any questions, please contact me at (530) 538-7376 between the hours of 7:30 am and 4:30 pm, Monday through Friday, or by email at mmichelenaa- buttecou nty. net.

FAX: (530) 538-7785 At the regular meeting of the Butte County Planning Commission held November 12, 1998, your request for a Use Permit to expand an existing group home from six beds to eight beds, was approved subject to the conditions listed on the enclosures. Please sign both copies and return both copies to this Division within 40 calendar days. Should you desire to appeal any of the conditions imposed by the Planning Commission, you must do so in writing, to the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors, 25 County Center Drive, Oroville, California, prior to 5:00 p.m., Monday, November 23, 1998. The appeal fee of $50.00 must be paid at that time. If you do not appeal and if there are no other appeal within the 10 calendar -day appeal period, the action of the Planning Commission is final. A Notice of Exemption (NOE) should be filed for purpose of completing the California environmental quality Act requirements. The fee for filing the NOE is a $25.00 document handling fee. A check made payable to the Butte County Treasurer in the amount of $25.00 should be submitted to the Planning Division in order to complete the process. Please be aware that failure to return the signed copies within 40 calendar days will invalidate the Planning Commission's approval. Re-application to this Division would then be necessary. The Use Permit is deemed granted when the enclosures have been signed by the applicant, with the counter signature of the Chairman of the Planning Commission, and said permit is received by the applicant by registered mail. Pursuant to Section 66020 (d) (2) of the Government Code you are hereby notified that you have 90 days to register a protest challenging any fees, dedications, reservations, or exactions imposed as conditions of approval for this project.

We have a child, and the traffic poses a safety concern. We'd like to see a posted 35 -mph speed limit on Cherokee Road. Thirdly, the property line, which we share with the Davisson's, has a six-foot wooden fence that we appreciate because it buffers us to some degree from the activities at the Davisson's foster care business. However, the fence is decaying and leaning due to post rot.

As an employee at Oroville High School i have the opportunity to work with -Mr, and Mrs. Joel and Wendy Davisson and the students placed in their group home. I am a counselor, teacher and coach at the high school. I am pleased to write this letter of support for the Davisson's. I believe they truly go beyond the call of duty. Not only do they provide young ladies with a safe place to call home, we that they get placed into the best educational setting for each individual, sce that each student is meeting her individual needs whether it be through counseling, extra curricular activities (example: being a member on an athletic team or involved in school clubs) but they also offer a lot of incentives for the students to grow in the present and future. They instill life long skills and follow through with incentives when they have been met. It is without doubt if the Davisson's could expand their home to accommodate addition people, they have. my total support. In closing I would like to say that the Davisson's don't forget about the individuals they have had in their home. There is a continuous two way communication with many of the young people that have lived with the Davisson's.

In the past four to five years Wendy and Joel Davisson have enrolled their students in the Center for Independent Studies and Challenge Charter High School, They have always been very supportive of these students and are actively involved in their education. We have seen positive growth in these students and believe that it is largely because of the positive environment that the Davisson's maintain in their home.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with' over 25 years counseling experience with children, adolescents, and families. I have worked in their group home for almost one year as a counselor to the resident girls. I find their home to be an extremely healing and nurturing environment for the very disturbed girls that come here to live. I am constantly amazed and impressed with the Davisson's and their staff's commitment to these adolescents who typically have nowhere else to go and have usually exhausted most other placement resources before arriving here. For many of them this is their last chance to learn the skills necessary for successful adult life, yet they are so caught up in their own emotional pain and anger that the Davissons and their staff are faced with much resistance and acting out behavior in their attempts to guide them into adulthood. I continually observe professional and therapeutic interactions between the staff and the girls no matter how much patience and self-control is needed to reach a resistant resident in the midst of their acting out or to nurture an adolescent that has seldom, if ever had any adult truly offer them unconditional love. The staff here do this and more under the effective and knowledgeable supervision of Wendy and Joel Davisson. The program that is offered the residents appears to be well balanced between work, play, socialization, exercise, spirituality, education, and adventure. In addition to the difficult emotional work that staff and residents experience together, there is much laughter, 'playfulness, and contentment that I experience among the girls and staff. The Davissons seem quite skillful in blending work and play, as well as providing: spiritual and moral guidance for the girls in an atmosphere that allows the girls to accept what is offered at their own emotional pace. I would highly recommend their expansion based on my above observations of their work, as well as my acquaintance of many of their emancipated "children" who seem to always be welcome and are considered family.
