The Nampa Planning and Zoning Commission approved a conditional‑use permit allowing a home‑occupation daycare at 11540 West Sammy Street in the Sunnyvale West subdivision, subject to residential building‑permit inspections, fire‑department clearance and other standard conditions.
Applicant (recorded as) Mokalai Patient Mambo described current operations that care for one family of four and said he would expand gradually if allowed. He stated hours would be roughly 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. and that children would use his large private backyard rather than HOA amenities.
Planning director Rodney Ashby summarized staff analysis and flagged five late opposition comments citing traffic, noise and neighborhood character. He said staff recommends standard conditions including a residential building permit to file a floor plan and receive building and fire inspections within six months of CUP issuance so emergency services have an on‑file plan showing childcare areas.
Commissioners asked whether children would leave the property; the applicant clarified they would remain on his lot. Commissioners praised the service and moved to approve; the motion carried by voice vote. The CUP will take effect 15 calendar days after the written decision unless appealed.
