RECOMMENDATION:
Recommended Action
COMMUNITY COUNCIL: Approval.
PLANNING COMMISSION: Approval with Conditions.
PLANNING STAFF: Deferral.
STAFF ANALYSIS: The proposal is consistent with the following policy of the 2035 Comprehensive Plan. The proposed increase in the number of resident clients to a maximum of six persons is not expected to affect adjoining and nearby properties. The previous issuance of a personal care home at the subject property did not present any resistance to the adjoining properties. The hours of operation are in conjunction with residential home and are not expected to adversely impact adjoining properties. Therefore, the Department of Planning and Sustainability recommends “Deferral, pending the applicant provide proof of meeting the distance requirements of one thousand (1,000) feet from any other personal care home”. Should this be provided prior to the BOC, Planning Staff recommends the attached conditions.
PLANNING COMMISSION VOTE: Approval with Conditions 8-0-0. Gwendolyn McCoy moved, LaSonya Osler seconded for Approval with Staff’s four (4) recommended conditions. Vivian Moore was not present for this vote.
COMMUNITY COUNCIL VOTE/RECOMMENDATION: Approval 7-0-2.
