RECOMMENDATIONS:
Recommended Action
COMMUNITY COUNCIL: APPROVAL.
PLANNING COMMISSION: APPROVAL WITH CONDITIONS.
PLANNING STAFF: APPROVAL WITH CONDITIONS.
PLANNING STAFF ANALYSIS: The rising demand for senior facilities, resulting from gradual “aging” of the population of DeKalb County, supports development of the property for seniors’ independent and assisted living facilities. The proposed use would be consistent with the needs of the neighborhood and of the community as a whole, would be compatible with the neighborhood, and would not be in conflict with the overall objectives of the comprehensive plan. The amenities that are proposed for the building and grounds are expected to encourage social interaction within the building, consistent with the supplemental regulations for senior housing facilities. Therefore, the Department of Planning and Sustainability recommends “Approval” with conditions.
PLANNING COMMISSION VOTE: Approval, 5-2-0. J. West moved, M. Butts seconded for approval as recommended and conditioned by Staff. L. Osler & P. Womack, Jr. opposed.
COMMUNITY COUNCIL VOTE/RECOMMENDATION: Approval, 5-0-0.
