IV. PLANNING STUDIES
Adult Residential Care Study:
Mr. Miller reviewed the staff report and graph prepared
for discussion.
Mary Jo Porter, of Pacific C it ies, Inc., was present. Ms. Porter
said that her experience indicates that 60 units of adult residential
housing per project is average, with the higher break occurring
at 100 to 120 units. The facilities usually supply meals, house-
keeping, and transportation, but not health care. The projects
are for the elderly who are healthy. Ms. Porter said that 400
. square feet is average for a studio unit; 500 square feet for

one room~ 600 to 720 square feet for two- units. Projects tend
to be two or three-story structures with an elevator, rather
than single-story structures. Ms. Porter encouraged the Commission
to retain the conditional use process for adult residential
projects to enable the City to review and individually regulate
each proposal.
There was discussion on density within the single-family residential
districts in the City concerning compatibility of multi-family
adult care projects in those districts. It was generally felt
that impact to the infrastructure would not be more than the
impact from single-family housing.
Larry Leonard moved to conditionally allow adult congregate
care centers in the RS-7 District with a maximum of 30 units
per acre: and in the RS-9 District with a maximum of 25 units
. per acre with maximum lot coverage of 30% in both districts.
Jim Hulett seconded the motion which passed unanimously.
Setbacks, buffering and infrastructure impacts in residential
neighborhoods were discussed.
Donna Davison moved to adopt as conditional uses, State licensed
boarding homes in the RS-7 District based upon the minimum 10t
area of the district, plus an additional 2000 square feet of
additional lot area for each additional resident above four
adults. Jerry Glass seconded the motion which passed unanimously.
.
The Commission agreed that for projects of one acre or more
the setbacks for adul t care facilities and State licensed boarding
homes should be 35 I on all sides. Bob Philpott moved to close
discussion and direct staff to draft wording regulat ing setbacks
and buffering for adult residential care facilities and State
licensed boarding homes in the single-family residential districts.
Larry Leonard seconded the motion which passed unanimoUSly.
