A motion to approve a permit for a new licensed group home daycare in
Great Bend will go before the city council Monday, July 18.
Jessica Roan has applied for a conditional use permit to open a daycare at 2206 McKinley Street.
Two parties at the Planning Commission’s public hearing had concerns with the
pickup and drop-off of children on the busy street of McKinley. Roan is
expected to present a plan to the council regarding the parking, pickup and
drop off for children.
According to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, a group daycare
home can provide care for up to 12 children.
The city council will discuss the item at Monday's meeting beginning at 6:30 p.m. at City Hall.
