ChildCare Facility for Loganville Denied

The proposal for a child care center at the intersection of Rosebud Road and Brushy Forks in Loganville has been declined, due to concerns about the area being kept residentially zoned. There were also concerns about the intersection already being dangerous, and that a day care center would make it worse.

I wonder, why not fix whatever's wrong with the intersection?

I think parents have a need of daycare, and the more choices in daycare, then the better the daycares must be to compete with each other. When there is a lack of day care options, then parents just have to settle for whatever they can get. I don't think there is enough day care in the area now, and I am a person who is generally against daycare situations for kids. I think the parents should be home with the child, but it's unfortunately a reality of life that people can't all afford to do that.

So we will have less choices in quality day care for our children, and the writer of the article in the Loganville Tribune is happy about that. I'm just shaking my head at the short sightedness of it all. LINK
