Loyal Friends Childcare expansion

A grandmother from Warren praised the daycare's safe, caring environment and urged approval so more families can benefit.

A single mom whose son has attended since age four months said the daycare gives her peace of mind and asked the commission to approve the expansion.

An abutting neighbor worried backyard play equipment like Big Wheels and play centers would be visible from his yard and hurt his home's resale value.

A nearby neighbor and former home daycare operator supported the daycare generally but thought 14 children was too many for the house and worried traffic would be constant despite staggering.

The daycare's lead teacher, a retired Detroit public school teacher who lives on the same block, asked the commission to approve the expansion.
