Another new childcare centre for 60 pre-schoolers is being planned for Warnervale.
The residence at 42 Warnervale Rd, midway between the railway line and the Virginia Rd intersection, will be demolished to make way for a new single-storey building.
If approved by Central Coast Council, the childcare centre will operate on weekdays between 8am and 4pm to cater for children aged three to five and supervised by eight staff at any one time.
There will be two indoor play/education spaces, an outdoor play/education area, office space and basement car parking for 15 vehicles and a lift for disabled access.
The 1416sqm site shares a common boundary with three adjoining properties and the development application includes an acoustic report outlining recommendations to minimise any noise impacts.
It is an R1 General Residential area where a childcare centre is permitted under the Central Coast Local Environment Plan.
The development application (2366) can be viewed on Central Coast Council’s website and open for public comment until Monday, October 24.
