NOTES TO FILE: Peninsula Mental Health—203 West 12 1h Street
IN ATTENDANCE: Peninsula Mental Health representatives: Peter Casey, Grant
Munro, Debbie Reed
City Staff. Nathan West, Sue Roberds, Patrick Bartholick
Met to discuss the status of a pending conditional use permit application- the occupancy
of 203 West 12 th Street as a residence for people with special needs who are living as
boarders. Living arrangement characteristics were discussed such as group homes,
assisted living facilities, single family, and multiple family occupancies. PMH staff
insisted that the residency of a group (5) of individuals under supervision or supported by
an outside agency who are living at a residence is not a group home. Residents are
supervised by PMH employees on a daily basis and report to PMH regarding their living
situations and concerns but they basically live independently and are trying to assimilate
into a normal family life. Residents each sign a lease with PMH and pay rent based on
what they can afford. City staff believes that the use is more like a boarding house where
rooms are let rather than a family unit where everyone pitches in to cover expenses. Each
occupant has a different rental agreement and is provided subsidy care from public funds.
PMH is paid from public funds and grants for their services.
PMH is not licensed to operate a group home at this location and do not wish to become
licensed to do so. A group home in the RS-7 zone requires a state license.
Staff stressed that the living situation does not seem to be a true family unit if each
individual living there is basically paying PMH rent and then being attended to by PMH
staff. it appears to function more like a boarding home. That needs to change if the use
is to continue in the RS-7 zone which is the most restrictive zone in the City and is
intended for single family occupancies with special services as licensed by the state
allowed by conditional use permit.
PMH will contact staff no later than July 6 with a determination as to a course of action
in this matter.
In response to comments about neighborhood complaints, Debbie Reed said that she, as a
Board Member, had received good feedback from the occupancy from neighbors
including Betsy Dinhart and Linda Howarth and believes this is a very supportive
neighborhood. Staff commented that neighbors are not non supportive but would like
more communication on several issues dealing with the atypical occupancy.

Sue,
I have run a query on our incident data (an incident is a call for service that resulted in police
response) for the address in question. Each file shows the incident activity, by type of call, tied
to the given address for a given year, 2007-2010. Other incidents could have occurred wherein
neighbors called regarding activities at the noted address. It would be very difficult if not
impossible to query that data.
You may interpret the data as you will. I am not able to offer any further analysis regarding
supervision of the site and how that has related to need for police responses.
You could ask those actively working patrol for their observations regarding any apparent need
for supervision at the site. They could speak from their experiences related to responses they
have made.
If you need further objective data, let me know and I will try to help. Hope this helps.

Ed:
It would be helpful to get an overview of the characteristics of the residential use at the subject address
as it is currently being operated. We have had reports from neighbors that disruptive behavior has
resulted from the group occupancy. I just don't want to be surprised at a public hearing to hear that the
neighbors have observed the Police Department at this address for various reasons purportedly related to
the occupancy and be surprised. Although I know we are looking at the land use issue in this matter and
many "normal" residences in the City also have the need to phone the Police, this is a use that is being
requested to exist without much supervision. The question is then, does there appear to be a need for
more supervision than currently exists. To try to make this short- have there been many calls for
assistance or because of disruption to this address in say the past 5 years?
Thanks,
Sue

Peninsula Community Mental Health Center(PCMHC) is applying f6r a conditional use
permit for our supported living housing unit at 203 W. 12th Street. This residence has
been utilized as a supported living/transitional housing unit for 4-6 unrelated adult
residents since 1997. All of the tenants who have resided at this location since 1997 have
been low income individuals who have been diagnosed with a mental illness. The typical
monthly incomes of residents who rent rooms in this supported housing unit range from
-71339.00 to $637.00.
Of the six current residents at this location, one has a vehicle and typically parks it on
12th street. The other five residents take public transportation as necessary. In addition,
one of the current residents is employed.
Staff from PCMHC visit the residence 4-7 days per week to provide coaching and skill J�
building activities such as self-advocacy skills training, social interpersonal skills
training, meal preparation, and house cleaning. The main goal in supported housing is to
provide an independent living setting with minimal supports that will allow the each 0
resident to transition to housing that is operated independently of the mental health center
over time. We work to raise the quality of life for each client and empower them to live
independently in our cornmunity.
�-None of the residents in the supported living unit meet the criteria for higher levels of
-non-independent living services'such as group home, board and care, or inpatient
treatment. Each of these services require 24-hour staffing on site.

steps to achieve them--steps such as building up social support networks, managing internal and exterr
stress, and navigating service delivery systems. Peer Counselors work for or subcontract with licensed
mental health agencies to provide peer support services.
Peer Counselors help consumers identify goals that promote recovery and resiliency and assist them in
identifying services and activities to help them reach these goals. Peer Counselors share their own
experiences in recovery to encourage consumers to regain hope in, and control over their own lives. Th(
promote personal responsibility for recovery and assist consumers in learning to advocate for themselVE
Peer Counselors work with consumers in groups or individually. Peer counselors are well grounded in
their own recovery and model competency in ongoing coping skills.
The Washington State Peer Support Counselor Training Program has now trained and certified consumei
since 2005. The Division of Behavioral Health and Recovery has conducted 21 separate 40-hour training
Approximately 25 consumers attended each 1-week training. Peer Support Counselors become certified
by successfully completing the training, passing the certification exam, and obtaining the Department ol
Health Re istered Re istered Counselor Credential.

the SEPA Responsible Official for the proposed Zoning Code
Amendment. This action fulfills the City's responsibility
under the State Environmental Policy Act, Chapter 43 .21C RCW.
7 . PLANNING DEPARTMENT EVALUATION:
CD
A. CHILD DAY CARE FACILITIES
The State's model ordinance for day care facilities defines
child day care as the provision of supplemental parental care
and supervision for an unrelated child or children, on a
regular basis, for less than 24 hours a day, and under license E/) =C
by the Washington State Department of Social and Health
Services. Day care does not include baby sitting services of M CD
a casual, non-recurring nature or in the child's own home, nor
does it include cooperative, reciprocative child care by a
group of parents in their respective homes.
The model ordinance provides for three types of day care
> ---
facilities. A family day care home regularly provides care
during part of the 24-hour day to six or fewer children. A
mini day care center provides for the care of 7 to 12
C) �0
children. A child day care center provides for the care of 13
or more children. Child day care centers may not be located
in a private family residence unless the portion of the M
residence where the children have access is used exclusively 1
for the children during the hours the center is in operation CDr_
n M
and is separate from the usual living quarters of the family.
More recent State licensing requirements have eliminated mini M
day care centers in favor of family day care homes.
M
>
The model ordinance permits family day care homes by right in
districts which permit residential uses. Mini day care
centers would require Conditional Use Approval if located in
residential districts and would ne permitted outright in all
others. A day care center would require a Conditional Use
Permit in residential districts and would be permitted by
right in all commercial districts. CD
Since the State has eliminated the mini day care facility
classification, the Planning Department proposes a two-tiered
classification be retained for the purpose of local control.
The first tier, family day care homes, would be permitted
outright through exemption as a Home Occupation in the zoning
districts that permit residential uses.
The second tier, child day care centers, would continue to be
conditionally permitted in the RS-7, RS-9, and RMF Zones, and
permitted by right in the CBD, ACD, OC, CN, CSD-Cl and C2
Zones.
File No. ZCA-91 (08) 06
Department Report
Page 4
In creating "his two-tiered system, the city would be imple-
menting the State's recommendations that all family day care
homes for 1 to 22 children be permitted by right and that day
care centers be permitted by right in commercial zoning
districts and by conditional use in residential zoning
districts. The intent is to strike a balance between the need
to remove barriers to providing day care and the need to
ensure day care facilities do not adversely impact the
neighborhoods in which they locate. CD
B. RESIDENTIAL CARE FACILITIES:
The State's model residential care ordinance includes three
types of residential care facilities. "Adult family homes':
are regular family dwellings in which up to four to six
unrelated persons may be provided personal care, room�
1� a:
board. A "residential care facility" is a facility for 5Nto r-.CD
15 people with functional disabilities. A "supported living
arranaement" is a dwelling unit owned or rented by one or more
persons with functional disabilities who receive assistance
with daily living and/or medical care from properly licensed
individuals or agencies.
The model ordinance would permit by right all three classi-
fications in all residential and commercial zones. However,
similar to the day care situation, the need to provide C� ;10
adequate housing for special needs populations should be
balanced with the need to ensure residential care facilities
do not adversely impact residential neighborhoods.
C7 A
t
The Planning Department agrees that adult family homes and
supported living arrangements could be permitted uses wher;----
A residential uses are permitted. Adult family homes, by��
definition, are limited to 4 to 6 unrelated adults, and the
number of persons living in a supported living arrangement
A
would be limited to six unrelated individuals. Residential
>
care facilities, however, can house up to 15 residents and
should be subject to local review with respect to potential
impacts on the neighborhood.
The Planning Department is recommending that adult family
C�- homes and supported living arrangements be permitted in those
C-1
districts in which residential uses are permitted (except RTP)
and that residential care facilities be permitted with a
Conditional Use Permit in the RS-7 and RS-9 Districts and
permitted by right in the RMF and commercial districts (except
OC) . In addition, a definition for family be added, which
limits to 6 the unrelated adults that could live in a single
\---�!��dwelling unit.

CONCLUSION
Local Control and Regulation Versus Federal and State Fair Housing Laws
Ted H. Gathe, Vancouver City Attorney The views expressed in this article are those of the author and
not those of the City of Vancouver.]
I. INTRODUCTION
In September, 1996, the Mayors of Palatine, Illinois and Edmonds, Washington testified before a
subcommittee of the House Judiciary Committee. These local officials asked Congress to legislatively
remedy a series of judicial interpretations of the Fair Housing Act Amendments of 1988 that severely
restrict the ability of cities to decide how and where group homes can be located.
This plea for a legislative response symbolizes the frustrations of many city officials who have, over the
last few years, waged a mostly losing battle with group home and fair housing advocates who have
been strongly supported by the Federal Government through the Departments of Housing (HUD) and
Justice. Lawsuits involving Palatine and Edmonds have run the gauntlet of the federal judiciary and in
http://www.mrsc.org/Subjects/Legal/gathe.aspx 4/1/2010

so doing have established significant precedents favorable to group home advocates.
This article is intended to provide a review and update on the Fair Housing Act as last reviewed in the
1993 ELUL Mid-Year Seminar. In particular, it will examine the conflict between the federal policy of
supporting the unrestricted location of residential group homes for the handicapped and cities' interests
in protecting and preserving the residential character of single family neighborhoods. Last, it will
examine the most recent case law and proposed federal and state legislation in this area.
II. BACKGROUND
The deinstitutionalization of persons with mental and physical handicaps has rapidly occurred
throughout the country in the last several decades. This has resulted in a proliferation of alternate
living arrangements commonly referred to as "group homes". Such homes allow handicapped
individuals to live together in a residential setting with the advantages of a family like structure. For
many such individuals, group living arrangements are beneficial for integrating into society as well as
economically necessary. In recent years, the group home concept has included a number of
unsupervised, self-governing homes that provide housing for recovering alcoholics and drug addicts. A
prime example are the Oxford Houses found in many communities throughout the country.
The rapid increase of group homes has been controversial. In the past, a number of municipalities took
a "not in my backyard" approach in regulating such housing often bowing to local neighborhood
opposition by restricting their location, placement and operation. For a variety of reasons including the
actions of some local governments, Congress, in 1988, amended the Fair Housing Act. [ Fair Housing
Act, 42 U.S.C. § 3601 et seq
A. Overview of 1988 Amendments to the Fair Housirig Act
The amendments to the Fair Housing Act ("FHAA") prohibit discrimination against people with
disabilities and on account of familial status in public as well as private housing. The 1988 Act also
strengthened existing enforcement mechanisms by providing HUD with the power to refer cases
involving breaches of conciliation agreements to the Department of Justice.
In construing the Act, courts have given it broad application in order to prohibit discriminatory housing
practices, and have required "a generous construction. . . in order to carry out a policy that Congress
considered to be of the highest priority." [ United States v. Columbus Country Club , 915 F.2d 877, 883
(3rd Cir. 1990).]
It is possible for municipalities to violate the Act in two different areas. First, the original Fair Housing
Act invalidates "any law of a State, a political subdivision, or any other such jurisdiction that purports
to require or permit any action that would be a discriminatory housing practice under this [Act]." [ 42
U.S.C. § 3615.] The Federal Courts have repeatedly interpreted this provision to prohibit municipal
zoning and land use policies that affect the availability-of housing for individuals protected by the Act.
[ See, e.g., Metropolitan Housing Dev. Corp. v. Village of Arlington Heights , 558 F.2d 1283 (7th Cir.
1977).] Second, the 1988 Amendments specifically define discrimination against the handicapped to
include "a refusal to make reasonable accommodations in rules, policies, practices, or services, when
such accommodations may be necessary to afford such person equal opportunity to use and enjoy a
dwelling." [ 42 U.S.C. § 3604 ff)(3)(B).]
In response to the FHAA, the Washington State Legislature added a new section to chapter 35.63 RCW
during the 1993 session. It reads:
No city may enact or maintain an ordinance, development regulation, zoning regulation or official
control, policy, or administrative practice which treats a residential structure occupied by persons with
handicaps differently than a similar residential structure occupied by a family or other unrelated
individuals. [ 1993 Wash. Laws, 478, § 20 (also known as the Washington Housing Policy Act); see also
Wash. Admin. Code 365-195-860; Wash. Rev. Code § § 35.63.220, 35A.63.240.] [emphasis added]

As a result, Washington has established an anti-discrimination policy that supports individuals who fall
under the FHAA definition of "handicapped," by prohibiting land use regulations and policies which treat
such individuals differently than the non-handicapped. Whether or not this provision prohibits
regulations that prevent the clustering of group homes and promote community integration, is
uncertain. However, as discussed herein, in light of various judicial decisions interpreting the FHAA, it
does seem clear that municipal regulations may "treat a residential structure occupied by persons with
handicaps differently," only if there are legitimate state and local interests properly tailored to achieve
vaW regulatory goals. [ See supra S ection III.]
B. Definition of Handicapped
The FHAA adopted the definition of "handicap" used in section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.
[ See 29 U.S.C. § 701-794.] "Handicap" with respect to a person means that such person has a
"physical or mental impairment which substantially limits one or more major life activities; a record of
such an impairment; or is regarded as having such an impairment." [ 24 C.F.R. § 100.201; see also 42
U.C.S. § 3602 (h).] "Major life activities" include caring for oneself, walking, seeing, hearing, speaking,
breathing, learning and working. Thus, any person suffering from a physiological, neurological or
mental disorder or disability of any type will be protected by the Act. This broad application is further
expanded by including individuals who are perceived to be handicapped either by appearance or
because of a history of some impairment covered by the Act.
C. Application of the FHAA to Zoning and Land Use Regulations
Prior to passage of the FHAA, the Supreme Court had already outlawed overt discrimination against the
handicapped. [ See City of Cleburne v. Cleburne Living Center , 473 U.S. 432, 105 S. Ct. 3249 (1985).]
In Clebume, the Court held that a requirement of a special use permit for group homes for the
mentally retarded and not for any other type of commercial living arrangement such as nursing homes
and boarding houses violated equal protection because there was no rational basis for the separate
requirement. Thus, it would appear that Congress' intent in passing the 1988 Amendments was to
provide broader legal protection to handicapped individuals in addition to prohibiting intentional
discrimination.
The legislative history of the FHAA clearly indicates that Congrets eAncilteids that municipal land use as
well as health and safety regulations comply with its provisions. �jj�Tfhe intended to prohibit the
[application of special requirements through land use regulation§, restrictive covenants, and conditional
,or special use permits that have the effectAf limiting the ability of such individuals to live in the
g i
residence of their choice in the community."ff H.R. Rep. No . 711, 100th Cong., 2d Sess., reprinted in
1988 U.S.0 C.A.N. 2173, 2185 ("House Report").] What is less clear is the application of facially
neutral laws that may have some effect on the siting and operation of group homes. An example of this
is the exemption in the FHAA which permits "reasonable. . . restrictions regarding the maximum
number of occupants permitted to occupy a dwelling." [ 42 U.S.C. § 3602(h).] In a recent decision,
however, the U.S. Supreme Court has brought more clarity to this issue. (See discussion in Section III
(B) (1) below.)
Because the Act provides additional protection to the handicapped, their ability to successfully litigate
against what are viewed as restrictive zoning and land use laws has increased dramatically. Under the
FHAA, litigants need not argue that zoning and land use restrictions fail the rational relation test. Nor
are they required to show discriminatory intent in order to invalidate a challenged ordinance. Such
litigants need only show that restrictions in question discriminate against them because of their status.
Although the language in the Act is somewhat ambiguous, in a series of decisions, the courts have
applied any one of three tests to scrutinize such regulations. These include: 1) discriminatory intent, 2)
discriminatory impact and 3) failure to make reasonable accommodation.
In construing municipal regulations challenged under the pre-1988 Fair Housing Act, the courts
frequently included an analysis of such regulations' discriminatory intent against and discriminatory
effect on protected classes. Today, however, under the FHAA such cases usually find only
discriminatory effect because municipalities rarely enact laws that overtly discriminate against a

particular type of use or user.
III. METHODS OF MUNICIPAL REGULATION
A number of different methods have been utilized by municipalities to regulate the location, size and
use of group homes. Some of these methods have been found to be invalid. Others have been the
subject of conflicting judicial decisions. This section discusses these types of regulations and the judicial
responses thereto.
A. Licensing and Registration
EThere are a number of valid reasons to require the registration and/or licensing of group homes: 1)
)protecting group home residents from individuals who may take advantage of them; 2) maintaining
adequate health and safety standards for protection of the occupants and 3) identifying and facilitating
a P1
ppropriate responses to homes whose residents may require special assistance during an emergency.
So far, however, regulations based on such policies have not fared well. Many states have extensive
licensing schemes for such homes that preempt any local regulation. (See, for example, the provisions
in Washington State law (Chap. 70.128 RCW) that establish adult family homes, regulate their
operation and preempt local zoning.) Even registration requirements asking for no more than the
submission of basic information regarding the proposed group home has been the subject of legal
challenge. In Oxford House, Inc. v. Township of Cherry Hill, [ Oxford House, Inc. v. Township of Cherry
Hill , 799 F.Supp. 450, 462 (D.N . 1 1 the court construed as discriminatory mere application
procedures for obtaining use permits LikeLwise' other litiganls have successfullKAM�����
s t Jr
ylication or permitting process viola es their right to "reasonable accommodation" in zoning
ractica�.][ See United States v. Village of Palatine , 37 F.3d 1230, 1234 (7th Cir. 1994).]
Even seemingly valid public safety concerns have been viewed as overly paternalistic in nature.
Advocates for the handicapped argue that health and safety concerns of local government simply
perpetuates public misconceptions about the handicapped that the FHAA attempts to neutralize. [ See
Oxford House, Inc. v. City of St. Louis , 843 F.Supp. 1556, 1581 (E.D. Mo. 1994).]J—B—ased on the above,
iFseems unlikely that a registration requirement would survive judicial scrutiny under the Act unless it
i,s clearly health and safety related and is applied equally to all group living arrangements in a
commun.��J
B. Density Limitations
Prior to passage of the FHAA, the U.S. Supreme Court considered several cases where municipalities
attempted to limit the number of persons living together in a single-family dwelling.
In Village of Belle Terre v. Borass, [ Village of Belle Terre v. Borass , 94 S.Ct. 1536 (1974).] the
Supreme Court upheld Belle Terre's zoning ordinance against a challenge brought by six unrelated
students who lived in a single family house. The ordinance in question defined family in such a way that
no more than two of the unrelated students could live in the house. The Court found that the ordinance
was not an unconstitutional violation of equal protection or the rights of association, travel, and
privacy, and concluded that the regulation was a reasonable legislative decision.
In 1977, the Court was confronted with a challenge to a municipal ordinance that defined "family" in a
way that included only a narrow category of individuals who were directly related to one another and
thereby excluded the Plaintiff's family from residing together. [ Moore v. City of East Cleveland , 97
S.Ct. 1932 (1977).] The Court distinguished East Cleveland from Belle Terre noting that the ordinance
in Belle Terre affected only unrelated individuals. The Court further held that the East Cleveland
ordinance interfered with the freedom of personal choice in family living arrangements in violation of
the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. Following the Belle Terre and East Cleveland,
cases, many cities regulated the size of group living arrangements by distinguishing between related
and non-related individuals using a restrictive definition of "family".
http://www.mrse.org/Subjects/Legal/gathe.aspx 4/l/2010
Group Homes: Local Control and Regulation Versus Federal and State Fair Housing Laws Page 5 of 13
However, after passage of the FHAA, group home advocates challenged such restrictions with support
from HUD and the Department of Justice. A series of cases worked their way through the federal
judiciary resulting in two conflicting opinions rendered by the Circuit Courts, one of which relied on the
distinction the U.S. Supreme Court had drawn in the Belle Terre case. Ultimately the Supreme Court
accepted review of a Ninth Circuit appeal involving the City of Edmonds. [ Elliot v. City of Athens , 960
F.2d 975 (11th Cir. 1992); City of Edmonds v. Wash. State Bldg. Code Council , 18 F.3d 802 (9th Cir.
1994).]
1. Numerical and Occupancy Limitations and the Definition of "Farr�ily"
As clarified by the Supreme Court in City of Edmonds v. Oxford House, Inc., there is a distinction
between municipal land use restrictions and maximum occupancy limits. [ City of Edmonds v. Oxford
House, Inc ., 115 S.Ct. 1776 (1995).] Whereas land use restrictions designate districts in which only
compatible uses are allowed and incompatible uses are excluded (such as categories of single-family
residences versus commercial zones), maximum occupancy limits cap the number of occupants per
dwelling, relative to the available floor space or number of rooms. Maximum occupancy limits are
supposed to apply uniformly to all residents of all dwelling units, since the purpose is to protect health
and safety by preventing overcrowding. However, it is argued that municipalities often mask land use
restrictions as maximum occupancy limits through restrictive definitions of "family" and family
composition rules.
That was the crux of the Edmonds case. In Edmonds, the Supreme Court held that a zoning provision
governing an area zoned for single-family dwelling units, which defined a "family" as, "persons related
by genetics, adoption, or marriage, or a group of five or fewer persons who are not related," described
who made up a family unit, not the maximum number of occupants the unit could house. Therefore, it
did not fall within the FHAA's exemption for total occupancy limits.
Municipal zoning rules that cap the total number of occupants in order to prevent overcrowding of a
dwelling are designed to protect public safety. Because these are non-discriminatory, legitimate
government interests, maximum occupancy limits are exempted from scrutiny under the FHAA.
However, the City of Edmonds' regulation described who could compose a family unit, and not the
maximum number of occupants each unit may have.
In answering the question of whether the Edmonds' family composition rule qualified under the
maximum occupancy exemption, the court explained the distinction between land use restrictions and
maximum occupancy limits. Justice Ginsburg noted that the provisions of the Edmonds Community
Development Code as invoked against a group home for recovering substance abusers are "classic
examples of a use restriction and complementing family composition rule. These provisions do not cap
the number of people who may live in a dwelling. In plain terms, they direct that dwellings be used
only to house families." [ Id . at 1782.] The court went to state:
But Edmonds' family composition rule surely does not answer the question: 'What is the maximum
number of occupants permitted to occupy a house?' So long as they are related 'by genetics, adoption,
or marriage,' any number of people can live in a house...Family living, not living space per occupant, is
what [the code] describes* [ Id . at 1782-3.]
Finally, the Court emphasized that the scope of their holding was limited to concluding that the
Edmonds' family composition rule did not qualify for an exemption permitting a limit on the maximum
number of occupants under the FHAA. It remanded to the lower courts the issue of whether Edmonds'
actions against Oxford House violate the FHAA's prohibitions against discrimination.
As usual, cases in this area often raise as many questions as they answer. If Edmonds family
composition rule is invalid, on what basis can the state defend R.C.W. 70.128.010(l) which limits the
number of residents of state licensed adult family homes to a maximum of six?
Likewise, could municipalities in Washington "piggyback" on this state law provision to support similar
http://www.mrsc.org/Subjects/Legal/gathe.aspx 4/l/2010
Group Homes: Local Control and Regulation Versus Federal and State Fair Housing Laws Page 6 of 13
municipal density limitations?
2. The Requirement of Making "Reasonable Accommodation"
In a suit alleging violations of the FHAA, a court must address two main questions: First, is the litigant
"handicapped" within the meaning of the FHAA. As discussed above, this includes not only physically
and mentally disabled individuals, but also recovering addicts, who are not currently using drugs or
alcohol. If a litigant is not handicapped, he or she will not be protected under the FHAA. If the litigant is
handicapped, the court moves onto its second tier of analysis: whether the government regulation or
activity is discriminatory. This includes a review of the challenged zoning practices for discriminatory
intent, discriminatory effects or impacts, and the "reasonable accommodations" test. While zoning
regulations may be discriminatory, they may still be upheld if, on balance, they serve legitimate
government interests and are rationally related to the goals of health, safety and community welfare.
�e FHAA requires that governments provide a, "reasonable accommodation" for the handicapped if
nece�sa r to afford an equal opportunity to use and enjoy housinc
y JThe 1988 Amendments declare that
I scrim ination includes: "a refusal to make reasonable accommod'ations in rules, policies, practices, or
services, when such accommodations may be necessary to afford such person equal opportunity to use
and enjoy a dwelling." [ 42 U.S.C. § 3604 (f)(3)(B) (1988).]rh-e reasonable accommodation provision
'of the FHAA requires that municipalities be flexible when appl ying zoning restrictions to handicapped
k persons living in group homesiGovernment officials are required to tailor certain zoning provisions to
the needs of the handicappe'd--and the establishment of group homes, especially where it would not
impose an undue burden on the local government. Often, a g—rou-p op-e-ra-tor.'or handicapped
individual will request a �"Fe-a��nable accom`r5odati-o-n"' in the local ordinance, using the FHAA
requirement as leverage. Any refusal to make "reasonable accommodations" may constitute illegal
discrimination under the FHAA.
The implication of the reasonable accommodation requirement is that a jurisdiction must sufficiently
broaden its zoning rules and regulations to allow the establishment of sufficient community residences
to accommodate handicapped citizens who want to live in a "homestyle" setting, rather than in an
institutional environment. A city can reasonably accommodate group homes by not enforcing an
e,x-clysionary definition of "family" or other such illegitimate zoning restrictions, or by changing its Code.
,[Aj reasonable accommodation, according to a majority of courts, is one which would not impose an,
I
.undue hardship or burden upon the entity making the accommodation and would not undermine the
—basic.purpose which the requirement seeks to achi!\�ej[ United States v. Village of Marshall , 787 F.
§upp. 872, 878 (W.D. Wis. 1991).]
It is important to note that the courts have upheld legitimate government zoning regulations where
they intentionally promote public health and safety, and are narrowly designed to reach specific ends.
While the "reasonable accommodations" requirement in the FHAA takes away some municipal zoning
power, it does so only to the extent that government regulations conflict with(Me-policy behind the
rHAA: to protect the handicapped from baseless stereotyping, and assist in their ability to achieve
�'normalization and community integrati2DJ.
C. Dispersion or Spacin Requirements
Requiring a mandatory minimum distance between group homes would seem to limit the number of
housing opportunities available to handicapped persons in a community and thus violate the FHAA.
Surprisingly, however, some advocates for group homes promote dispersion and a number of states
have enacted statutory dispersion requirements. [ See Kevin Zenner, Note, Dispersion Requirements
for the siting of group homes: Reconciling New York's Padvian Law with the Fair Housing Amendments
Act of 1988 , 44 Buff. L.Rev. 249 (1996).] The rationale behind this kind of policy is that by requiring
group homes to be distributed throughout the community, the residents are able to live in mainstream
residential neighborhoods rather than in a cluster of group homes segregated from the rest of the
community.

L
In an early reported decision involving group homes under the FHAA, a federal district court upheld the
refusal of the City of St. Paul, Minnesota to renew special use permits for three of plaintiff's group
homes, because such homes would violate a local zoning provision requiring spacing between each
facility.
Familystyle of St.Paul, Inc. v. City of St. Paul [ Familystyle of St. Paul, Inc. v. City of St. Paul , 728 F.
Supp. 1396 ( ) j addressed the appropriateness of a spacing requirement in a Minnesota statute
applicable to facilities which provide residential services to handicapped individuals. In order to obtain a
license for a residential program, applicants had to comply with several conditions, including a 1,320
foot spacing requirement between existing residential facilities. These special conditions were in place
to, "effectuate the Minnesota policy of cleinstitutionalization of the mentally ill," and to "allow them the
benefits of normal residential surroundings." [ Id . at 1398.] The City of St. Paul Zoning Code also
provided for the minimum distance requirement of 1, 320 feet between zoning lots for community
residential facilities.
Familystyle, which provided residential living homes for the handicapped, purchased properties in St.
Paul in order to operate new facilities. However, three of its permits were denied on the grounds that
the facilities did not meet the 1,320 foot spacing requirement of the zoning code. On appeal to the
Planning Commission, Familystyle argued that the spacing requirement had the effect of reducing the
number of residents it could house, limiting a handicapped person's choice of where to live, and thus
was invalid as a discriminatory housing practice under section 3615 of the FHAA.
In response, the City denied the charge and asserted that federal, state, and city laws all had the same
purpose, i.e. increasing the housing options available to all handicapped people by integrating them
into the mainstream of the community, through a policy of cleinstitutionalization. The City further
argued that, even if spacing requirements were discriminatory, they were valid because handicapped
people are not a "suspect class" under Cleburne v. Cleburne Living Center; [ 473 U.S. 432 (1985).] and
second, that even under strict scrutiny, the policy of cleinstitutionalization and prevention of
"ghettoization" is a compelling government interest which is narrowly tailored to achieve its ends
through zoning dispersal.
The court agreed with the City. In its holding, the court explained that, "[t]here is a significant
difference between laws which directly regulate individuals and laws which regulate institutions." It
explained:
Surely the Congress intended states to maintain some control over such facilities. The spacing
requirements are a part of Minnesota's licensing process and the zoning code [of St. Paul] builds on
those requirements in implementing its system. Because the handicapped are not directly prohibited
from residing at these residences, and because states must maintain some authority over such
institutions, the state and local laws are not "preempted" by section 3615. [ Id . at 1401.]
Next, the court analyzed the spacing requirement to determine whether it had a discriminatory effect
within the meaning of Title VIII and the equal protection clause of the Constitution. In holding that the
spacing requirement was not discriminatory under a rational basis standard of scrutiny, the court
concluded that because the Attorney General, the Legislature, the courts, Congress and the state of
Minnesota had all promoted the policy of integration of the handicapped into the mainstream of the
community, St. Paul's dispersion requirement was not discriminatory. In finding that dispersal furthers
a compelling government interest, the court reasoned,
Forcing new residential facilities to locate at a distance from other facilities by its very terms prevents
the clustering of homes which could lead the mentally ill to cloister themselves and not interact with
the community mainstream. Because the state and local laws prohibit this clustering effect, the do
further the goal of integrating the handicapped into the community. [ Id . at 1404.]
http://www.mrse.org/Subjects/Lega'l/gathe.aspx 4/l/20 10
Group Homes: Local Control and Regulation Versus Federal and State Fair Housing Laws Page 8 of 13
Last, the court was unwilling to find that a distance requirement of less than 1,320 feet would be a less
drastic means of attaining the policy of cleinstitutionalization, thereby finding the city zoning law
narrowly drawn to promote a compelling government interest.
On appeal, the Eighth Circuit affirmed the district courts findings that the challenged state laws and
local ordinances were not preempted by the FHAA. It noted that, "Congress did not intend to abrogate
a state's power to determine how facilities for the mentally ill must meet licensing standards," and that,
"the challenged state laws and city ordinance do not affect or prohibit a retarded or mentally ill person
from purchasing, renting, or occupying a private residence or dwelling." [ 923 F.2d 94.]

enacting the spacing requirement, the court found that there are less discriminatory ways to
accomplish these goals.

than promotes FHAA policies to prevent discrimination of the handicapped.

against handicapped individuals. Another way to rationalize the holding of Horizon House in light of
Familystyle is that the municipality there acted, not only without state regulatory guidance, but also
without asserting legitimate government interests in defending its exclusionary zoning practices.
Where a municipality acts without authorization or guidance from the State, its motives are more likely
to be viewed as suspect and potentially discriminatory. Additionally, the thrust of the holding in
Familystyle was that States do not regulate individuals when enacting p�ILicy regulations, but instead,
,monitor institutions in the interest of public health, welfare, and safety. ,When-6 rn-uhicipality enacts ,-
�spacing requirements, however, eventually only a finite number of group homes will be able to locat6
rithin its boundaries. Therefore, dispersal zoning comes closer to regulating individuals, rather than .
kgroup homes as "institutions," by eventually limiting the housing choices available to the handicapped.
Recent cases have also helped to clarify the reason for the disparate holdings of Familystyle and
Horizon House. In Charter Township of Plymouth v. Department of Social Services, et al. the Michigan
Court of Appeals following the decision of Familystyle, upheld the validity of a municipal dispersal
requirement. [ 501 N.W.2d 186 (1993).] The Department of Social Services was enjoined from issuing
any further licenses for the operation of adult foster care facilities for failure to comply with the
requirement that facilities be spaced at least 1,500 feet from each other, among other'requ i rements.
The defendant claimed it was not required to comply because the FHAA preempted those statutes. The
Court of Appeals disagreed. By comparing its case with Familystyle, the court explained,
[W]e note that the challenged statutory requirements pertaining to notice, 'excessive concentration/
and the distance between adult foster care facilities regulate commercial institutions or enterprises...
and make no attempt to prohibit handicapped or mentally ill people from residing wherever they
choose. While we recognize that the clear intent of the FHAA is to prohibit discrimination against
handicapped individuals in the housing market, we decline to read the remedial purposes of the act
broadly to apply to profit-oriented enterprises operating adult foster care facilities for handicapped
people. [ Id . at 188.]
Even though the adult home in question would have accommodated six or fewer residents, the court
still found that the government interest in regulating group homes outweighed any claims of
discrimination in this case.
tIn Banjerter v. Orem City Corporation, [ 797 F.Supp. 918 (D.Utah 1992) , rev'd , 46 F.3d 1491 (10th,,-

Bangerter challenged the requirements as,violations of the FHAA.
Using Familystyle as authority, the court found that, while the conditions were discriminatory in that
they treat handicapped people differently than the non-handicapped, they were nonetheless valid
because they were rationally related to legitimate government purposes. The court held that the Orem
City ordinance was based on a state statute that is targeted specifically at residential facilities which
accommodate handicapped individuals' who require, "a combination or sequence of special
interdisciplinary or generic care, treatment, or other services that are individually planned and
coordinated to allow the person to function in and contribute to, a residential neighborhood." [ Id . at

By contrast, North Shore-Chicago Rehabilitation Inc. v. Village of Skokie refused to uphold a group
homes ordinance which required that residents live in the home on a "permanent basis." [ North Shore-
Chicago Rehabilitation Inc. v. Village of Skokie , 827 F.Supp 497 (N.D. 111. 1993).] Because the
ordinance did not make reasonable accommodation for brain-injured individuals, it was discriminatory.
Additionally, Skokie failed to present evidence establishing a legitimate, non-discriminatory reason for
its refusal to grant North Shore's application, and proving that a reasonable accommodation was
impossible. The court asserted,
Skokie's justification for the state licensing requirement arises out of its concern for the welfare of the
residents of the proposed facility. There is no doubt that the state is better equipped to maintain
oversight agencies to assure proper care of persons in rehabilitation facilities than is Skokie. To this
extent, as a general matter, local municipalities should be free in forming their zoning ordinances to
require that certain rehabilitation facilities obtain available state certification or licensing... In the
instant case, however, the two restrictions seized upon by Skokie bear no rational relationship to the
general welfare or safety of the proposed North Shore residents. [ Id . at 922.]
While the North Shore-Chicago court recognized the importance of state and local regulation of group
homes under the appropriate circumstances, it refused to follow Familystyle since the municipality
enacted its own regulation, unlike the state's, imposing both discriminatory and non-accommodating
requirements against the handicapped.
4. Dispersion of Group Homes in Washington
One possible solution to the problem of regulating group homes by location is through adoption of a
state statute or policy that prescribes dispersal of such facilities in a manner similar to the Minnesota
provisions discussed herein. Legal support for such a statute would have to be based on the Familystyle
and related decisions with the caveat that the practical effect of any such proposed statute or policy
must not result in the prohibition of group homes within a community and must recognize the necessity
of providing for reasonable accommodation.
This was the approach taken by sponsors of House Bill 1049 which was introduced in the 1997
Washington Legislature. The Bill amends the Washington Housing Policy Act (RCW 35.63.220) and
authorizes local governments to "promote the nondiscriminatory integration of persons with disabilities
and medically frail individuals who live in group homes by regulating the dispersion of group homes in
residential neighborhoods." The policy rationale for this Bill is to: 1) promote mainstrearning of the
handicapped into community life; 2) avoid overconcentration of similar facilities that create an artificial
i.e. institutional environment; 3) insure that dispersion does not create artificial quotas on group
homes and 4) require that any regulations in this area provide for reasonable accommodation to
handicapped individuals in choosing their housing options.
The drafters of the legislation felt that because of the conflicting decisions in the federal judiciary, a bill
http://www.mrsc.org/Subjects/Legal/gathe.aspx 4/1/2010
Group Homes: Local Control and Regulation Versus Federal and State Fair Housing La... Page 11 of 13
which used as its cornerstone the integration of the handicapped into the community was more likely to
be found in compliance with FHAA and State Housing Laws. In addition, Washington state courts have
not yet dealt with whether group home dispersion laws are valid and enforceable. A 1992 Attorney
General's opinion discussed dispersion. [ AGO 1992, No.25.] While acknowledging potential issues with
the Fair Housing Act, the opinion suggests that in those cases, other than adult family homes, where
the State licenses group residential facilities, such licensing authority does not preempt cities from
enforcing dispersion type ordinances. This opinion, however, was issued prior to passage of the 1993
Washington Housing Policy Act which includes a provision restricting cities from regulating housing
occupied by handicapped persons differently than housing occupied by non-handicapped individuals.
[ Wash. Rev. Code 35.63.220; 35A.63.240.]
A 1995 decision by the Washington Supreme Court concluded that abused or neglected teenagers were
not considered handicapped under the provisions of the Washington Housing Policy Act (RCW
35.63.220). [ Sunderland v. City of Pasco, 127 Wn.2d 782 (1995).] As a result, the Court did not
consider the question of whether a municipality could, under State and Federal fair housing laws,
require a crisis residential center for teens to go through a siting procedure.
IV. RECENT FEDERAL CASELAW AND PROPOSED LEGISLATION
House Bill 1049 discussed above was abandoned shortly after its sponsors were notified of a January 8,
1997, decision rendered by U.S. District Court Judge Thomas S. Zilly in the matter of The Children's
Alliance, et al. v. City of Bellevue. [ W.D.Wash. Case No. C95-905Z.] This case arose from attempts by
the City of Bellevue to regulate group homes. The City enacted three ordinances between 1994 to
1996. One was repealed in 1996, a second which was invalidated by a Growth Management Hearings
Board and the third became the subject of the Children's Alliance litigation.
The last ordinance establishedtt�q97'classe7s of group care facilities? Class I facilities included �c!Ult fam'ily
homes'(which are authorized permitted uses in all'residenti6l 26nes'by state law. See.Ch. 70.128 Y
RCW), homes-for the hanclicappdd,-domestic violence shelters and foster family tjonnesi All-other/

through a permitting system which includes public comment. The Ordinance imposes occupancy limits

anywhere within the City.
Even though Bellevue attempted to craft its ordinance to be in compliance with the FHAA and its
various exemptions, the Court found it to be invalid. At the time of this article, it is not known if
Bellevue has appealed the Children's Home decision to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. Based on the
Ninth Circuit's previous ruling in Edmonds supra, which strongly supported the FHAA in striking down
family composition restrictions, it would seem unlikely that this ruling would be overturned. Therefore,
Judge Zilly's decision may be instructive on what, if any, remaining authority Washington cities have to
regulate group home facilities under the FHAA.
In his decision, Judge Zilly chose to analyze Bellevue's Ordinance under the disparate impact theory
after finding that the Ordinance was discriminatory on its face. As an example of such facial invalidity,
the Court pointed out that while the Ordinance's definition of "family" includes group homes, the
Ordinance also defines "group facility" based on the presence of "staff". Where a group home fits both
definitions, the later controls. This results in separate restrictions being applied to the "group facility"
such as the 1000 foot dispersion requirement and a limitation on the number of residents. This was
found to be violative of the FHAA because the Court determined that the use of the term "staff " to
differentiate between types of group facilities "is a proxy for a classification based on the presence of
http://www.mrsc.org/Subjects/Legal/gathe.aspx 4/1/2010
Group Homes: Local Control and Regulation Versus Federal and State Fair Housing La... Page 12 of 13
individuals under eighteen and the handicapped as both groups require supervision and
assistance." [ Children's Alliance , Order at page 10.]
The Court also pointed out the disparity in treatment of youth between Class I and II facilities. Adult
family homes with resident staff are class I facilities while family homes for youth with resident staff
are not. Thus, the additional burdens on Class II facilities described above fall on such youthful
residents while adult residents can locate throughout the City's residential zones. The Court found that
these provisions facially discriminate on the basis of familial status thus avoiding the issue of whether
abused or neglected youth are handicapped under the FHAA. [ Sunderland v. Cit of Pasco, 127 Wn.2d
782 (1995).]
Bellevue appropriately argued that the disparity in treatment discussed above was based on its general
police power authority'to provide for public health, tranquillity and safety and that under the standard
of review adopted in the Familystyle case [ See Section III (C) (1).] , a court should only apply the
rational basis test to review its Ordinance. The Court recognized that the Ninth Circuit has not yet
adopted a standard of review in these types of cases but declined to use the rational basis test.
Instead, it chose the method of analysis used in the Sixth and Tenth circuits in part because it found
that the FHAA makes both children and the handicapped protected classes. That standard requires that
to rebut a finding of facial discrimination, the defendant must show either 1) the ordinance benefits the
protected class or 2) it responds to legitimate safety concerns raised by the individuals affected rather
than being based on stereotypes. [ See Larkin v. State of Michigan Dept. of Social Services, 89 F.3d
285, 290 (6 th Cir. 1996).] In reviewing the factual claims, the Court found that Bellevue could not
demonstrate that its group home regulations met the Larkin test.
With regard to the 1,000 foot dispersion requirement, the Court was not impressed with Bellevue's
rationale. The Court found that language purporting to help members of a protected class (similar to
that discussed in House Bill 1049 regarding community integration etc.) should be scrutinized to
determine whether its "benefits" clearly outweigh its burdens. In Bellevue's case, the Court found no.
factual justification to support the separation requirements.
The Court also made short work of the reasonable accommodation defense (i.e. that so long as an
ordinance requires that a municipality make reasonable accommodation in dealing with individuals
protected under the FHAA, the court cannot find the ordinance to be facially discriminatory) and instead
adopted the rule that the thrust of a reasonable accommodation claim is that a defendant must make
an affirmative change in an otherwise valid law or policy. [ The Court specifically rejected the approach
taken by the 5 th Cir. in the case of Elderhaven Inc. v. City of Lubbock , 98 F.3d 175 (1996).]
The Court did not consider constitutional challenges to the Ordinance since the FHAA (specifically 42
USCA 3615) authorizes courts to invalidate any laws deemed to be found discriminatory under the Act.
As a result of a number of federal court decisions like Children's Home, local and state legislators have
been lobbying Congress to make changes in the FHAA. House Bill 589, also known as the Fair Housing
Reform and Freedom of Speech Act was introduced in February, 1997 and attempts to amend the FHAA
in several different areas.
Part of its impetus comes from a series of incidents that occurred several years ago involving
individuals and community groups who protested against the placement of certain housing projects. In
a number of cases, HUD either sued or threatened suit against individuals under the FHAA claiming that
their statements opposing the location of group homes constituted discrimination against the
handicapped. Amid claims of first amendment violations and political pressure, HUD eventually backed
off these cases.
These free speech cases together with lobbying efforts of local governmental officials has created a
political climate that could lead to Fair Housing Act amendments. House Bill 589 is intended to allow
local government to exercise reasonable zoning and other land use regulations in determining the
occupancy, number, location and composition of residential group homes located in single family
http://www.mrsc.org/Subjects/Legal/gathe.aspx 4/1/2010

neighborhoods. This legislation, however, is limited to "the occupancy of a dwelling by a convicted
felon, sex offender, or recovering drug addict. . . " and does not deal with the more common type of
group home facilities found in many communities.
V. CONCLUSION
In interpreting the Fair Housing Act, it is clear that the federal judiciary including the Supreme Court
will not tolerate restrictive definitions of "family" masked as maximum occupancy limitations, where
they actually serve to define who constitutes a family, rather than to cap the number of individuals per
dwelling in the interest of public safety.
Additionally, the courts have generally prohibited licensing and registration schemes on the basis that
the permitting process has been misus-ed by prejudicially denying permits to build and locate group
homes in residential neighborhoods.Pcensing requirements have been found to violate the -rights of

Dispersion or spacing requirements once seen as one possible remaining method of municipal land use
regulations in this area are also unlikely to be upheld by the courts despite the acknowledged
importance of community integration of the handicapped.
Good public policy, however, dictates that legitimate state and local government regulations, when
performed in the name of pyblic health, safety and community welfare, should not be preempted by
the Fair Housing Act.1—un-re'asonable government actions born out of outmoded stereotypes against .th.6
(disabled, disguised as legitimate land use regulations, will be suspect and will not pass the -
�constitutional and statutory standards prohibiting discrimination. As stated by Peter Salsich Jr., founder
6f Oxford House, in his proposed model ordinance for group homes:
The ordinance was drafted to provide assistance to communities which are willing to accept appropriate
forms of shared living arrangements, but which also have a legitimate concern that stable
neighborhoods not be overwhelmed by facilities that are physically incompatible with existing housing
arrangements.
Whether local communities will be allowed to govern on that basis remains to-be seen.

MEMORANDUM
August 9, 1991
TO: Port Angeles Planning Commission
FROM: Planning Department
RE: Family Day Care Home Use - Interpretation
ISSUE:
Should family day care home use be interpreted as allowed under the
detached single-family dwellings (on individual lots) permitted
use?
BACKGROUND:
In the past, the City of Port Angeles has required family day care
home uses to obtain a Conditional Use Permit as a Home Occupation.
A number of day care homes have complied with the City 's zoning
requirement and obtained such Conditional Use Permits. These day
care home occupations have been differentiated from other
ccnditional uses for day care centers, mini-day care centers, and
pre-schools, principally by the number of children served (as
licensed by DSHS) and by the existence of a principally permitted
single-family residential use. Although the City has required
specific conditions for these home occupation uses, a day care home
occupation has never been denied a Conditional Use Permit by the
Cicy of Port Angeles.
Working with the Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS) ,
the City has endeavored to properly permit day care providers
licensed by the State. In this regard, the Planning Department
notified home care providers 'this spring, informing them of their
need to comply with the City's Zoning Code requirements for a
Conditional Use Permit. Nancy Martin, Director of Parent Line,
which is a non-profit resource and referral service for child care,
contacted the Planning Department on behalf of 22 family day care
providers who received the City' s letter. After several meetings
with the family day care home providers and their representatives,
they requested a review of the interpretation that family day care
is not a home occupation but is permitted under detached single-
family dwellings use in the Zoning Code. It is their interpreta-
tion of the Zoning Code language that the activities in a family
day care home are incidental to established residential activity,
an inherent part of the makeup of the neighborhood, and located in
homes by its accepted DSHS definition and, therefore, is not
expressly either a day care center or a home occupation which
require a Conditional Use Permit.
Generally, business activity involving the public and occurring in
the single-family residential zone has been considered either
conditionally permitted or prohibited but not principally
permitted. Knowing where day care uses are located for public
health, safety, and welfare purposes and conditioning them to
assure that other residents of the area will not be detrimentally
affected are valid reasons for imposing Zoning Code requirements.
At its July 2 , 1991, meeting, the City Council moved to initiate
review of the State' s model ordinances for residential and child
care facilities by sending them to the Planning Commission for
deliberation along with the child care providers' express use
request. Attached are these model ordinances. A staff report for
Zoning Code Amendments will be prepared, which, if approved, would
make the family day care home use interpretation moot.
RECOMMENDATION/ACTION:
The Planning Department recommends maintaining the interpretation
that resideTitial care activities such as child day care and group
homes should obtain Conditional Use Permits in single-family
residential zones under the current Zoning Code regulations.
However, the Planning Department does support a home day care
permitted use through Zoning Code amendments consistent with the
model ordinances. Accordingly, the Planning Department recommends
that the Planning Commission schedule a public hearing on the model
ordinances and Zoning Code amendments for its regular meeting of
August 28 , 1991, and set aside the interpretation request until
after action is taken on the Zoning Code amendments. it is
anticipated the matter of the model ordinances and Zoning Code
amendments could be decided by the City Council at its September
17, 1991, regular meeting, following its own public hearing. The
family day care home providers are being allowed to remain in
operation pending their interpretation request and subsequent time
for Conditional Use Permit application reviews.
Staff will be available to answer questions.

FROM:
suBjEcT: Modetl Ordinance on Zoning for Residential Care Facilities
we are plea!�ed to announce that the Model Ordinance for Zoning Of
Residential Care Facilities has been completed. Chapter 427 , Laws of
1989 required the Departments of Community Development, Social and
Health Services, and Health, and the Washington State Association of
Counties, Association of Washington Cities, and the Long-Term Care
Commission to develop a model ordinance for the siting of residential
care facilities by December 31, 1990. These entities, along with
representatives of groups representing people with disabilities, have
worked diligently to complete the model ordinance.
We believe that this model ordinance will be a useful tool for local
governments as they come into compliance with the Federal Fair Housing
Amendments Act of 1988. The model ordinance was developed in
conformance with the regulations stipulated in that federal mandate,
and includes definitions taken from the Act. Although the model
ordinance was developed as a stand-alone ordinance, it does not have
to be adopted piecemeal. Some local jurisdictions may find it more
logical to incorporate the information into several areas of their
zoning code.
The Department of Community Development is required to report the
degree of implementation of the model ordinance to the Legislature.
Local governments must respond to the Department by June 30, 1991, '.)n
whether their jurisdiction has adopted the model ordinance. Enclosed
are a copy of the model ordinance, a fact sheet regarding its
development, and*a form to return regarding adoption of the ordinance.
If you have any questions about this process, please contact
Joanne McCaughan, (206) 753-1174 , or SCAN 234-1174 .
This legislation also called for local governments to complete need-
and-demand studies, and for DCD to report to the Legislature on the
results. The studies were completed in October 1990, and the report
has been submitted to the Legislature. The Executive Summary of that
report is enclosed for your information and review. Copies of the
complete report on the need-and-demand studies are available to local
jurisdictions on request.

TO: Mayor Sargent and City Council
FROM: Brad Collins, Planning Director

ISSUE:

Should the City Council adopt model ordinances regulating residentiai care facilities and child
care facilities, pursuant to State Department of Community Development recommendations and
RCW 70.128.
C) ;0

BACKGROUND:
Ln
C)r-
Currently, the Zoning Code requires residential care facilities, such as group homes, and child r1i
V)
care facilities, such as home day care occupations, be approved through the conditional use M
p r
ermit Drocess. The City has enforced these provisions o-i numerous occasions. In some cases, rri
the State Department of Social and Health Services also regulates these activities. Unapproved
or unlicensed operators are increasingly being asked to comply bo . by the City and State.
th
Earlier this year, a list of care providers who had received City fire inspections were individually
contacted about obtaining conditional use permits in compliance with the City's Zoning Code.
The City Manager, Ci'y Aztomey and Planning Director have met with group representatives of
the child care providers and outlined various options they could take to amend the Zoning Code L/)
and its interpretation. At these meetings on June 3, and 13, 1991, the City agreed to work with Co
the providers to have their questions about Code and interpretation ame;idments reviewed by the i
Board of Adjustment, the Planning Commission, and/or the City Council. The City has received rn
a June 18, 1991, letter from ParentLine requesting that the Planning Commission review home
day care as a use not expressly permitted already elsewhere in the Zoning Code, such as under
Home Occupaton. This matter has been scheduled for the July 10th Planning Commission
Meeting. Similar concerns are being raised by adult family care providers.
Attached to this memorandum is a leiter in response to the State Department of Community
Development model ordinances for residential and child care facilities. The City was unaware
until recently that we Nvere required to respond by June 30, 1991. Also attached is a copy of
Memo - care providers
June 27, 1991
Page 2
RCW 70.128 which may preempt local zoning codes from requiring adult family homes to obtain
conditional use permit.�. In view of the day care providers' Code interpretation request, and the
attached State's re:;idenf�al and child care model ordinances, a more comprehensive review of
these issues and the model ordinances may help to strik(,- a possible balance between
neighborhood protection in residential zones and community needs for adult residential and child
care facilities.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning Department supports a home day care permitted use and recommends that the City
Council initiate review of the State's model ordinances for residential and child care facilities by
sending them to Che Planning Commission for their deliberation along with the child care
previders' express use request.
Staff will be available to answer questions at the July 2nd meeting.

RE-: Local Govemment Response to Model Ordinances -
Residentia; and Child Care Zoning
Dear Ms. McCaughan:
As required, the City of Port Angeles is hereby resporiding to the Department of Community
Development on the model ordinances for residential care facilities and child care facilities. The
City has not adopted either model ordinance at this time. Both ordinances are currently being
reviewed, but no action has been scheduled. Therefore, I have not been able to respond to your
reply form.
The Port Angeles Planning Department does not have record of having received the model
ordinances or backup materials. Please forward all such materials to Sue Roberds, Port Angeles

Dear Members of the City Council:
A ietter was published in the editorial section of the Peninsula Daily News on
Thursday, July 4, 1991, critical of the decision made by of the City Council in closed
session not to exempt family day care homes from conditional use permits orenvironmental
impact checklists. I wrote this letter several days ago, prior to the action taken by the
County Council on Tuesday, July 2nd in which a Model Ordinance that would exempt
family day care homes from conditional use permits was referred, to the Planning
Commission for study.
Aware that the City Council was making good faith efforts to resolve this issue with
public input, and informed that the Cit., Planner had devoted many hours to researching
this issue before recommending that the Model Ordinance be presented to the Planning
Commission, I felt my letter was no I
onger appropriate. I made a visit in person to
Peninsula Dailv News on Wednesday,July 3rd and asked
that my letter NOT be printed.
The fact that th�c paper went ahead and published this!etter against my expressed wishes is
regrettable.
Therefore, I aim writing to you as members of the City Council to convey my
appreciation of the acti I)ns taken by the City Council at the last meeting and, in pa,-ticular,
the efforts of Brad Collins on this matter. I wish to express my sincere hope that this
impK)rtant issue affecting so many families will be resolved constructively and in a spirit of
cooperation.

NEIGBBORHOOD CHARACTERISTICS:
The.subject*location is-situated in the City's Central Planning'Axea. The site address is
.203 West 12th Street. The neighborhood is'a well-established', completely built out traditional
neighborhood comprised of single family homes mainly on individual lots. The area is
commonly referred to as "Cherry Hill",and is an area identified b. the Queen of Angels Church
y
and convent/s6hool located.in.the nei'ghborhood two blocks immediately north of the subject site.
Jefferson Elementary School is located three blocks east of the site at the comer of 13�,and
Lincoln Streets. A well-established bed and breakfast use is located adjacent to the site north of
the 11/12 Alley with other.commercial uses north along 8th Street and south to L'auridsen
Boulevard. PCNIH's main office facility is located four blocks north on 8th Street from the
location.
. BACKGROUND:
In 1991,PCMH purchased the subject property and applied for a conditional use permit
to operate a group home at the subject location. Conditional Use'Permit CUP.91(06)10-was
approved to operate a group home housing adolescent girls who' would be supervised 24 hours a
day. ,Twenty-four hourcare was provided because the girls were underage; there was no history
of mental illness. The conditional use permit was issued on June 12, 1991, by the Planning
Commission.'That approval was upheld following an appeal to the City Council in October of
that year. Subsequent reviews'allowed extensions to August, 1996. The application process
included a great deal of neighborhood input and outreach.
PCMH decided to discontinue operating a group facility for the teenagers*and the
conditional use permit was allowed to lapse 'in favor of a residence for adult consumers. Staff
was not aware that occupancy of the group home had changed until informed in late 2009 by
concerned neighbors. When questioned about the change in occupancy, PCMH staff indicated
that they believed if the occupants did not exceed 6 unrelated 'persons, the occupancy would be
considered a family by City definition and did not need a CUP. However, since the consumers
do not live independently (a key component of the defmition I of a family), the use remain '
ins
similar to a group home as defined by the PAMC. PCMH collects a fee dependent on what the
consumer can afford for assistance including rent.
PUBLIC COMMIENT:
Public notification was mailedl to property owners within 3-00 feet of the subject site and
posted on the property on July 29, 2010, and August 24, 2010. Notification was place'
d in the
Peninsula Daily News on August)24,2010,with written comment.accepted by September 7,

pursuant to 17.10.040(R)PAMC, which.allows "Other uses compatible with the intent this
chapter" (RS-7 zone) as a conditional uses.
The applicant has proposed that a Resident Aide.position be developed whereby a resident
consumer will be responsible for daily management duties with oversight by PCMH
professionals as in-house supervision. The Resident Aide will'be under the direct supervision of
a.state certified Residential Supervisor working for PCMH. The Resident Aide will reside in the
residence, communicate regularly with residential staff, assist in maintenance of grounds and
encourage-complian*ce with house rules. The Resident Aide will be able to quickly respond to
any issues that may arise in the residence thereby reducing the potential for disruption or
assistance from either the City's emergency services or PCMH counselors. Application
information indicates that consumers who occupy-this type of'group residence do not need 24-
hour care butwould benefit from in house supervision by a Resident Aide.
Staff has spent a great deal of time speaking with neighbors and licensing agencies
regarding the use, its past operation, and Riture expectations. A meeting was held in preparation
for consideration of the application with Board Members of Peninsula Cornmimity N/rP-ntnI
Health.to better understand the need and operation of the residence. As a conditionally
permissible activity in the RS-7 zone, it is important to focus on conditions that would ensure
neighborhood outreach, establish operational characteristics, and provide structure for the living
activity. PCMH Director Peter Casey said that PCMH has a policy that screens individuals�prior
to placement in this residence based on their level of competehce,independence, and criminal
history. Residents who do not meet PCMH screening criteria will not reside in the home.
In researching this type of residence, staff learned that the expectation in supported
housing is to provide an independent living setting with minimal support that will allow each
resident to transition to housing that is independent of the mental health center over time. This
practice has evolved from an effort to deinstitutionalize people with mental illness and is
overseen by the Departments of Health and Social and Health Services. Staff was also informed
by an employee of the Regional Services Network(the PCMH oversight funding management
service)for this area that consumers are largely people who live here and not consumers from
other counties.

17. PCMH Director Peter Casey indicated that residents will be.screened to en I sure that at-
risk individuals will not be placed in the residence. PCMH has a policy to screen residents for
placement within a residential zone given a number of factors including safety and well-being
and criminal-history. Consumers who do not meet the criteria will not be placed in the residence.
Mr.Casey acknowledged that an unfortimate resident placement went unnoticed for many years
but when this information was made known to staff, the individual was immediately removed
from the residence to a more appropriate location.
18. Although unlicensed for the past 12.years, the home use has been.in place and operated
by PCMH with little incident for a total of 18 years at the subject location. Mr. Casey and
PCNJH staff have beenworking with City staff to bring the use into compliance with local
zoning laws and to conduct an outreach program to the neighborhood that will be a forum to
identify and address any issues that may arise from the occupancy in the future.
19. Neighbors to the.home contacted City staff in November,2009, to discuss occupancy
concerns following a meeting with PCMH staff in October. Neighborsexpressed a desire to
initiate a neighborhood outreach and education program similar to the condition that was
attached to Conditional Use Permit CUP 91(06)10. PCMH Director Casey is aware of the
advantages of such a program and agreed to initiate.same. The previous conditional use permit-
required monitoring during extension review of the CUP.
20. The Federal Fair Housing Act (FFFIA)requires that licensing requirements shall not
violate the,rights of individuals to reasonable accommodations in zoning practices. Conditional
use permits may not discriminate against the handicapped but shall protect their safety as well as
the safety of the community in general.
21. The City of Port Angeles allows for group home use by conditional use permit in all
residential zones. Such review is intended to identify emergency service needs and identify
particular characteristics of individual neighborhoods.
Peninsula Community Mental Health operates under oversight by the Departments of
Health(DOI-1) and Social and Health Services (DSHS).
23. The Federal Housing Authority Act (FHAA) has limited some municipal zoning
authority in an effort to avoid stereotyping to achieve community integration. The common
policy per FHAA is to.require group homes to be distributed throughout,the community where
residents are able to live in mainstream residential neighborhoods rather than in a cluster of
group.homes segregated from the rest of the community' Local zoning regulations maintain
some authority over locational siting but regulations must be administered similarly to any such
group occupancy.
24, The Port Angeles Comprehensive Plan was reviewed it in its entirety in analysis of this
application. The goals,policies, and objectives listed in Attachment B tothis staff.report were
found to be the most applicable to the proposed use.
25. Public notification was mailed to property owners within 300 feet of the subject site and
posted-on the property on July 29, 2010, and August 24, 2.010. Notification was placed in the
Pe' ninsula Daily News on August 24, 20.10, with written comment accepted by September 7,
20 10. Comments provided by neighbors with regard to the use during the written public
comment period are attached as Attachment "C"to this staff report.

RE: Group Home Conditional Use Permit Application
Peninsula Community Mental Health (PCMH)
Atten: Sue Roberds
To Whom It May Concern:
This letter serves as my written support for the approval of the Conditional Use Permit Application
for the Group Home located in RS-7 Residential Single Family Home zone, 203 West 12th Street.
This residence is due souih of my property at 1108 South Oak Str eet,Port Angeles.
My 26 years of service on behalf of individuals with Developmental and Mental Health challenges
included the responsibility of licensing,training staff, developing curriculum and monitoring the
many Small Family and Group Homes located throughout California. Communities as a whole are
not only ethically but legally required to be as inclusive and least restrictive as possible in providing
living,working, educational and recreational opportunities and assistance to individuals in our
social service delivery systems that are similar in nature to those environments we all wish to
participate. I believe that is the directive here in Washington as wen.
I became aware of the Group Home under consideration when I completed my due diligence in
preparation for purchasing my current residence/business and moving here on July 30, 2010.
During these past years I have interacted with the residents living in the home occasionally as I
have with other neighbors. Several times I spoke with the residents about the loudness of music,
working on a car, or loud conversations that occurred between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m.when a guest had
shared that they were unable to sleep. The resident responded by lowering their volume or
stopping the loud activity. On occasion they needed additional reminders but were more than
willing to quiet their activity. I have done no less with another neighbor whose dog would bark
incessantly in the late evening and early morning. I went and spoke with them. I would expect the
same courtesy if my home/business was causing concern from a neighbor.
Last October 2009 there was an individual residing at the home with a syndrome that often
manifested in loud, cursing, and verbal discourse. Due to the nature of this individual's disability,
the verbal context and volume is often unmanageable with prompts. I did call PCMH for the first
time since moving here to speak with Peter Casey, Executive Director to discuss the situation. At
about the same time, several of the boundary neighbors had shared concerns they had regarding
another resident and the appropriateness of his living in the home. There was also discussed the
facility and grounds maintenance concerns. The main concern of mine was supervisory in nature
and I was
Page Two
Conditional Use Permit for 203 W. 126 Street, Port Angeles,WA
seeking information on what services were provided during the later evening and early morning
hours for residents in the home. Rather than these round-robin conversations amongst the
neighbors I suggested a meeting with Peter Casey and his staff to discuss and work out some
resolutions that would be amenable to aH concerned. My intent was never to suggest the home be
closed, nor purchased by a group of homeowners or that the residents were not welcome as my
neighbors. A meeting was scheduled immediately.
The meeting was held and following that evening, plans were set in motion to provide staff as
needed during late evening and early morning hours, the plans to trim up the yard and begin major
renovations and restoration to the home were begun. It looks beautiful! The two residents were
assisted in locating alternate living arrangements. During these times when funding and options
are often limited I believe Peninsula Community Mental Health under the guidance of Peter Casey
acted promptly, with respect for the individuals living in the home as well as the bordering
neighbors. I would hope that should a member in my family ever need similar social services that
they too would have the opportunity to reside in a neighborhood as we do; receiving the individual
and group assistance to make their lives as comfortable and similar in nature to anyone else
residing in this community.

Re.- Peninsula Mental Health Housing 203 W 12 th Street
From: Barbara McFall
1h
I was born and raised in Port Angeles in the neighborhood of 203 W. 12 . In
fact, I lived right across the alley in the Tudor Inn. I remember the Fryer family
living in that house and later another large family, the Hopsons, living in that
house. The neighborhood, then as now, was filled with a number of families and
retirees. An R7 zoning results in solid, residential neighborhoods where kids run
rampant, neighbors talk across the fence and most everybody is acquainted with
each other. They are neighborhoods in which people feel safe in raising their
families and inviting their friends to visit.
I am also a law enforcement officer and have been for the past 11 years. I am
well acquainted with the issues of mental illness and substance abuse. They are
some of the hardest people to deal with due to the double whammy of drugs and
severe mental health issues. Until recently many drug treatment facilities would
not take patients with mental health issues and vice versa. This results in many
of them being left at large in the community, either untreated or being treated on
an outpatient basis with agencies such as Peninsula Mental Health.
Peninsula Mental Health actually has a number of housing units scattered
throughout Port Angeles in addition to the one at 203 W. 12 th St. What makes
203 W 12 th Street stand out is the dual diagnosis status and the severity of the
challenges faces by its clients who stay there. The only other PMH residence I
know of with clients that severely challenged is 2nd Street House, which is staffed
24 — 7 with at least one on-site trained staff member.
The combination of substance abuse and mental illness make these subjects
extremely unpredictable and often volatile. Many drugs may leave users
paranoid, delusional, and/or psychotic with long periods of insomnia and
restlessness. These are difficult people to deal with during the best of times.
203 W 12 th Street is a house full of such subjects living unsupervised in a
residential neighborhood with two schools and two churches within three blocks.
It is a matter of public record that the Port Angeles Police Department has been
frequently called to this house or to disturbances involving subjects from this
house. Many substance abusers also have significant criminal history. What
kind of background checks have been done on these subjects? What is being
done to weed out the predators, those prone to violence, and those with serious
felony criminal history?
One obvious characteristic of the dual diagnosis is lack of judgment or lack of
consistent good judgment. One of the proposed solutions to the issue was for
Peninsula Mental Health to rent to just one such subject and expect him to deal
with the other five or so "roommates" Peninsula Mental Health will bring to him;
This solution is beyond ludicrous. The house does not function well now. How
could you place that pressure and responsibility on a dual diagnosed subject and
expect him to successfully navigate the issues PMH could not?
I am sure one of the reasons Peninsula Mental Health purchased the house in
the first place is no landlord in his right mind is going to take on not one, but five
or six such high risk renters. They are in that house and receiving treatment for a
reason, chiefly that they have difficulty living independently and have few other
housing options. They need treatment and closely monitored supervision.
If the house is rented to one subject who sublets to others and is no longer under
the auspices Peninsula Mental Health it would stand to reason that each of those
renters is now under the protection of the Landlord Tenant Act which does not'
apply to group housing like PMH houses. Then presumably, PMH would no
longer have the ability to easily remove an uncooperative subject or one who is
not paying his rent etc. PMH would not longer have the housing issue to use as
leverage to motivate subjects to take their medication, obey house rules, etc.
I believe the City of Port Angeles and Peninsula Mental Health must face up to
the seriousness of the issues involving 203 W 12 th Street. This is not a question
of "Not in my backyard". This is a question of not in any residential backyard until
the dwelling has constant on-site supervision as well as safety procedures in
place; procedures that would not allow a convicted sex offender who also
happens to have a drug abuse problem and a concurrent mental health diagnosis
to reside there.
Peninsula Mental Health and the City of Port Angeles need to be transparent in
their handling of this issue. Almost from the beginning Peninsula Mental Health
has hidden behind the lies of omission, moving far beyond the original stated
purpose for the home without acknowledgment to the City or the neighborhood.
When Betsy Schultz of the Tudor Inn sought to increase her business by hosting
tea parties the city refused her a permit without significant remodeling of her
kitchen as this was too far removed from the activities of a Bed and Breakfast.
The zoning and enforcement process should be applied fairly to all. At least the
Tudor Inn paid taxes and generated revenue for the community. As a tax exempt
agency, Peninsula Mental Health does not pay taxes for that house. Up until
very recently they made very little attempt to maintain the house or yard, leaving
it to disintegrate into a shabby, unkempt eyesore.
Peninsula Mental Health is not following through on its original, stated use for the
residence at 203 W 12 th Street. They have allowed their original permit to lapse
rather than bring its altered use under public scrutiny. They are not
communicating in good faith, they are not addressing their responsibility to the
clients they serve at 203 W 12 th Street or the neighbors residing in that
neighborhood. They have proved they do not place a high value on honesty,
open communication, or being a part of the neighborhood which they impact on a
daily basis. I am asking that their request for a new permit be denied.
Sincerely,
Barb McFall

The following are comments and concerns that we would like to see addressed regarding the
Notice of Application for a Conditional Use Permit at 203 West 12 th street:
We know that this facility has been in operation as some type of group home since 1991. We
weren't made aware that the use had changed from an Adolescent Transition House for girls to a
Group Home facility for men.
We would request that the residents would be closely monitored by the Peninsula Community
Mental Health Department either by providing "live-in" counselors or a Counselor Aide.
We would also insist that these residents are NOT registered sex offenders, because of the
location of Queen of Angels School and the children that live in the nearby homes.
While we do appreciate that recent"face-lift"that was given to the house, i.e. New fencing, new
paint, and trimming of the trees in front,we would hope that this maintenance and upkeep
continues... the home was in a state of disrepair for a long period of time.
We live five houses East of the group home and we have not noticed any nuisances or
disruptions coming from the residents of the home. However, other neighbors have been
concerned about police incidents that have occurred at the home.
It is our recommendation that the Planning Commission grant the Conditional Use Permit for a
six month to one-year period. At the end of that time period, re-evaluate and see if it is
something that should be continued in this neighborhood.

Dear Sue,
In regards to the conditional use permit for the property located at 203 W. 12" St.
property J would like to state my opinion . Over the years I have sold many houses in
Cherry Hill which is a most desirable area. I had no idea that this home was a group
home run by Peninsula Mental Health. For a long time the group home was in fair
condition but over the years has had a lot of deferred maintenance. I probably would not
encourage peopjp to purchase these homes,had I known that this was a group home. At
the.least let them know about it and let them make that decision.
I do not feel that these homes should be in a residential area especially one just a block
from a school and church and two blocks from another school.. I think that we should
have disclosure if a group home is placed in a Residential Zone and should know what
type of residents reside there and what crimes they may have committed especially if they
are pedophiles or registered sex offenders.
I would doubt that the City of Port Angeles has ever monitored any of these conditional
use permits to see if they are being used in the way they were intended . It's one thing to
grant a permit but another to see that the neighborhood is maintained as it should be in
residential zones. These homes need to be closely monitored, especially ones with more
serious mental issues. )Vhere is the city in terms of monitoring the conditioned use and
why is the C.U.P. allowed to be expired for over 13 years?
I look forward to the public hearing in regards to this issue and hopefully, the city will
have some new guidelines that will protect the general public that live in residential

City of Port Angeles, WA 8/10/2010
Dear Mrs. Roberds
I am writing to you in response to your request for comments regarding the issuance of a conditional
use permit for a group home located at 203 W 12 th St in Port Angeles. I reside at 209 W 12 th St and hope
that you will present my comments to anyone who will listen to them and think about the implications
of what the City is about to do regarding this proposed group home.
Shortly after I moved into my home in 2007 1 was appro ached by a gentleman who owned a home on
I 1th St behind my house. He told me that he was going to be renting his house to a former resident of
this 203 W 12 Ih St residence. His purpose in notifying me was to ask if I would object which I did not. He
did say something that bothered me at the time. He said that the person that was going to live in his
rental left the 203 W 12 th St because he feared for his own wellbeing and "had to get out of there".
I thought no more about the 203 W 12 Ih St residence until last year when my neighbor across the
street asked me to sit with her daughter while she went to work. She had heard through a friend that
knew an employee who worked for the Peninsula Mental Health Clinic at one of their other homes,that
a pedophile was living at 203 W 12 th St and that she was afraid to leave her daughter alone while she
was at work.About the same time I heard this from my neighbor across the street,the neighbor who
lived to the right of me told me that one of the residents at the 203 W 12 th St home had threatened to
kill her daughter. I have been disturbed by these events and wonder why the City has not had any
structure or oversight for such a group home in our neighborhood. I have seen police cars coming and
going and have not experienced anything like this in any other neighborhood I have called home.
I wish to state that I want to feel secure in my own neighborhood and the City should do what it takes
to make sure that happens.Thank you for listening to my issues with regard to your proposed
conditional use permit for 203 W 12 St. I plan to attend the meeting on August 24, 2010.
Sincerely yours,

To the City of Port Angeles Planning Commission, in the matter of the he i F! unity Development!
conditional use permit for the group home at 203 W. 12" Street:
We are the only homeowners in the neighborhood around the group home at 203 W. 12'
Street who were here when the house was a private residence. When the original hearing
was held to discuss the possibility of the house becoming a group home we were
supportive. We still are.
I. Over the years we have found Peninsula Community Mental Health to be
responsive to concerns expressed about the residents of the home and solutions to
those concerns to be immediate,up to and including removing a resident we have
found to be a bad fit for our neighborhood.
2. We thought that when, in the fall of 2009, a meeting was held to express some
serious issues with the house that were of more recent development,that
Peninsula Community Mental Health responded both immediately and
appropriately. There has never been a time when Peninsula Community Mental
Health was not willing to address our concerns. We have never hesitated to
express concerns or felt they would be ignored.
3. We appreciate the effort that has been done to maintain the house and yard,
especially recent improvements that undoubtedly took time and careful budgeting
to accomplish. This neighborhood is one that has a variety of homes, some well
cared for and some not. One only need walk along 12 th Street between Laurel and
Cherry to see quite a number that are not. The group home is doing a good job in
this regard.
4. When the house was a private residence there were sometimes situations that were
not optimum, such as loud, late parties or, of much more serious concern,
subletting bedrooms to transients. Our interactions with Peninsula Community
Mental Health have given us recourse we didn't have when the house was
privately owned.
We think that Peninsula Community Mental Health needs to have a current conditional
use permit that is kept current. We think that the residents need supervision so Peninsula
Community Mental Health is aware on a daily basis of how individual residents are
doing. We think that residents should be carefully selected by Peninsula Community
Mental Health so placement ensures residents who are at a stage of treatment enabling
them to function in a family neighborhood,both for our safety and theirs. There are
many children in our neighborhood, and we think Peninsula Community Mental Health
needs to continue to be mindful of this.
Good health, physical and mental, is one of life's great blessings. There is no guarantee
that if we are fortunate enough to have it, we will always have it. It is not inconceivable
that someone in our neighborhood might one day be in need of mental health support
services such as Peninsula Community Mental Health and the group home offer.
Private residences hold no assurance that horrible things can't or won't happen; over the
last 24+months in our neighborhood there have been tragedies in family homes that
stunned Port Angeles, one two blocks east of us and the other two blocks south.
Troubling news stories make us aware there are many people with mental disorders who
are getting no help whatsoever. In the group home at 203 West 12 th Street,they're
getting help.
Sincerely,
I'd,

Sue Roberds - preparation of conditional use permit for 203 W 12th St
From: STEPHEN HOWARTH
Date: 8/16/2010 10:30 AM
Subject: preparation of conditional use permit for 203 W 12th St
Sue,
You asked me for input regarding your preparation of the conditional use permit for the 203 W 12th St
property.
First I wish to reiterate some housekeeping matters regarding the permit process and the public hearing that is to
come.
I asked if you would be present at the public hearing and you indicated to me that you would be. I hope you will
describe the conditional use permit to the public at the beginning of the meeting and include the following:
1. Purpose for the conditional use permit.
2. Duration of the permit and renewal period. Also prior to each renewal period, will members of the
neighborhood have the opportunity to weigh in on whether or not it should be renewed?.
3. Criteria for renewal. Will the City check with the police department concerning activity at the house during the
preceding period?
Will inspection of the property be done by the-City regarding compliance??
4. Under the conditional use-permit, will the fire chief inspect the property for any safety issues??
5. ORIGINAL CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
a. Stipulated that the house was to be "maintained in a manner such that it would blend into the rest fo the
neighborhood"
(The property was let go for years and fell into terrible disrepair. I am sure that the neighborhood does not
want a repeat of that)
Will they mow the lawn and paint the house, clean the fences as needed....etc??
b. Permit limited how many automobiles would be on the property.
c. Original permit dealt with conduct of residents as it pertained to the atmosphere in the neighborhood. Will
there be laguage in the conditional use permit that addresses acceptable behavior.
NOTEH! This was the crux of the original meeting that we had with PMHC last October and is of vital
importance to the neighborhood.
d. Other issues surrounding the original permit that are of interest to R-7 zones throughout the City
6. 1 believe that in relation to 5.c above PMHC should AT LEAST disclose to the public and members of the
neighborhood whether or not they intend to house residents that have been convicted of a crime at the 203 W
12th St property and CERTAINLY if members on PROBATION, having been convicted of a crime in Clallarn County
or some other County in the State of Washington or even from outside the State of Washington are living there.
Such crimes might include: narcotic use or sale, sexual offenders, crimes of violence, grand larceny.......any other
felony conviction.
** I view this as a PUBLIC SAFETY issue whether or not PMHC and the City want to call it as such. If this
property with its defined "Conditional Use" as defined by the City itself were not next to 2 schools, an active
church, a potential tourist attraction for the City and residents of a neighborhood that moved to that
neighborhood assuming that the R-7 zone ordinance actually means something....then it might be judged
otherwise.
The presumption must start for the logical conclusion that simply owning a property ina zone that has been

Page 2 of 2
designated by the City for a specific purpose, does not give ANY resident the unilateral right to define how they
will use that property. I cannot be certain of the following statement, but I would have to believe that across
America in every neighborhood such as ours, that with almost 100% certainty, public safety would always trump
political correctness. Whatever politics are involved in this case Sue, I believe that the City would be well
served to address this issue head on. Otherwise, I predict huge liability issues for them in the future.
7. With regard to 6. above. The conditional use permit must be ratified by the City Council and members of the
Board of. Directors of PMHC. These individuals through their vote will assume responsibility for their vote
(politically and legally) I hope that these illustrious individuals, who will sit and pass judgment upon what should
occur in someone else's neighborhood will pause and weigh their decisions as if they lived in OUR neighborhood.
8. Issues of trust have arisen between members of the neighborhood and PMHC and some people feel that there
have even been out an out lies circulated by administrative officials of PMHC to the City and the neighborhood. In
October of 2009, PMHC indicated that they had someone coming to the house daily. After the meeting, they
indicated that an additional visit would be made at night to regulate adverse activity that had disrupted the Tudor
Inn and other residents of the neighborhood in the late evening and night-time hours. Nobody has seen anyone
coming to the property for this purpose. If the City wants to address disruptive behavior and repeated visits by
the police force to the 203 W 12th St property, then they should require 2 things in the conditional use permit.
a. Whoever comes to the property must be qualified to deal with mentally ill people.
b. Whoever comes to the property must detail their visit, the reason for the visit and any corrective action that
was taken.This can be accomplished with a visitation log kept daily or by using a time clock to document their
time and clinical logs to detail what they observed.
c. History speaks for itself Sue. The property itself suffered neglect and adverse activity at the house reflected
clinical neglect as well.(in my opinion)
d. With regard to 8 (this issue). If the stated purpose in the application for the conditional use permit by PMHC
for the 203 W 12th Stproperty is.......REHABILITATION......then how could either you (the City) of PMHC object to
requiring this documentation as part ofthe permit process??
9. 1 believe that this is a precedent setting issue and will ultimately determine the destiny of R-7 zones
throughout the City. Choose your words wisely in your final preparation of the conditional use permit Sue.

RE: Conditional Use Permit#10-08
Peninsula Community Mental Health/203 W. 12" Street, Port Angeles
Memorandum In Opposition to Conditional Use Permit
A. Introduction
The issue before this Commission is not whether Peninsula Community Mental Health (herein
"PCMH") has the right to own and run a facility at 203 W. 12th Street where people with mental
health issues reside. It can. The only.issue is what conditions does the Port Angeles City Code put
on PCMH in order to own and run such a home.
It is the position of my clients,Howard Ruddell and Dr. Stephen Howarth,that City Code and.state
law require the facility at 203 W. 12th Street to be properly licensed with the Department of Health,
and abide by the staffing requirements of such licensing in order to receive approval of the now
pending Conditional Use Permit. Without the proper licensing or confirmation from-the Department
of Health that no additional licensing is required, the permit must be denied.
�B. Brief Facts
In the late 1990's,PCMH opened 203 W. 12' Street as a troubled teen irl group home. At that time,
9
PCMH petitioned and received a ConditionalU.se Permit from the City of Port Angeles for the group
home. The records on file show that the teens living at the location at that time were troubled and
in need of life skills training, but were otherwise not dependant on PCMH for other services, care
or medical care.
August 18, 2010
Planning Commission
Page-2
In the past decade, the house has transitioned into.a facility for the mentally ill. Unlike the young
women who lived at the house in the past, many of the residents at the home require significantly
more care and are not otherwise able to live independently from the institution. Over the past two
years, this house alone caused twenty (20) incident reports with the Port Angeles City Police
Departnient.� These reports range from calls from residents of the home to 9.11 asking what day it
was, asking how to restore gun rights, reports of being attacked by "spirits" to a full and violent
breakdown of one of.the residents (copies ofall reports are attached).
Despite promises to work with the neighbors and that the facility has no additional impact on public
services, PCMH allowed a high risk sex offender to reside on the property and in the past three
months residents persist in making 911 calls to deal with issues that a properly staffed facility would
avoid. In the past three months, 911 has received a call from a resident indicating he is hearing
voices. Another resident stated he has not seen his children in months. Children he does not know
the names of and likely do not exist.
C. Legal Brief
I. Licensing Must Be Required
Any recommendation for approval of the Conditional Use Permit will be based on'the mistaken
belief that the 203 W. 12 1h house is,currently,being used as a"Group Home"instead of an unlicensed
"Adult Family Home." Given the experiences of the neighbors to the home, the number and kind
of incidence reports to the Police Department and the level of care required of the residentsat the
facility,the facility is an "Adult Family Home." The residents of the faculty and the nei.ghbors to
the facility,deserve the care,protection and peace of mind that comes with a properly licensed and
staffed facility. It is for this reason that the Commission should deny the Conditional Use Permit .
until proper licensing is attained or provided to staff or,at very least, condition the permit on proper
licencing-or confirmation from the Department of Health that no additional licencing is required.
2. "Adult Family Home,"v. Group Home
Under Chapter 17.10, RS-7 RESIDENTIAL, SINGLE FAMILY, there are two potential
defined uses under which a facility for the residence of individuals with metal health issues can be
approved by the City. Adult Family,Homes are listed as, an outright permitted use, and Group
Homes are listedas a conditional use. See Port Angeles City Code§§I 7.10.020(A),and 17.10.040(l).
"Adult Family Homes" are defined in Port Angeles City Code §17.08.0 10 Q as:
C. Adult Family Home — a one-family dwelling of a person or persons who are
providing personal care,room and board to more than (1) but not more than six (6)
adults who.are not related by blood or marriage to the person or persons providing
the services and who are licensed by the State of Washington pursuant to Chapter
August 18, 2010
Planning Commission
Page - 3
18.48 and Chapter 70.128 (Adult Family Home regulations).'
This definition is directly in keeping with the State Legislature's definition of an Adult Family Home
which means:
a residential home in which a person or.persons provide personal care, special.care,
room and board to more than'one but not more than six adults who are not related by
blood or marriage to the person or persons providing the service..
RCW-70.128.01 0(l). Under both definitions, the key point is that the facility is being used not
simply as a residence, but "Personal care" or"special care" is being provided to those who live at
the facility.
This is apposed to a"Group Home,"which is a:
non-independent,non-famil housekee in unity in which the residents are assisted�
y p 9
by an outside agency.or organization.
Code §17..08.040( Q. This definition notes a more directly residential use without the additional
care provided in an Adult Family Home. The distinction between an Adult Family Home and a
Group Home is the level of care that is or should be provided to the residents of the particular
facility.
3. The Residents of the Facilily Need Personal and Special Care.
The one inescapable fact that PCMH cannot deny is that each of the individuals living at the
facility at 203 W. 1-2` are under the direct medical supervision of PCMH because of their mental
health conditions and that living at the facility is a part of each of the individual.'s ongoing treatment.
This is in fact "personal care and special care." This fact alone removes the facility from the
definition of a"Group Home" and places it within the definition of an"Adult Family Home."
Without a full explanation ofthe specific kind and nature of the services that PCMH provides
the residents of the facility, this Commission cannot make a proper determination as to what
particular use the facility is being put. While such an investigation must be requested of City staff
This provision ofthe Code is easily mistaken to mean that the care provided must live with
those receiving the care since given the language, "one family dwelling of a person." Please note that
such a reading completely ignores the definitions of a"Dwelling" under Code §1 7.08.030(H)which only
notes that a dwelling refers to the nature of the building being residential, not that a person is in fact
living at the dwelling. The mistake also ignores the definition of a"Person,`which includes any"firm,
partnership, association, corporation, company or other legal entity, private or public,whether.for profit
or not for profit."Code §17.08.085(B). Since the building is a"dwelling"of PCMH, a"person,"there is
no requirement under the Code that a car giver live at the location for it to.be anAdult Family Home.
August 18, 2010
Planning Commission
Page- 4
if not already done at the time of hearing, the picture presented by the Police Incident Reports
attached hereto,and the other comments of record,show a significant need for special and personal
care in order to protect and care for the residents of the facility and the surrounding ne'ighborhood.
Please review the letters before the Commission and the Police Incident Reports with care.
4. The Lack of a License Alone Does Not Make The Facili1y a"Group Home."
The Port Angeles City Code is keenly written in order to protect and balance two vital public
interests: safety and fair housing. To this end, all Conditional Use Permits may be conditioned to
"protect the public health,safety,and welfare,and to prevent depreciation of neighboring property."
Code § 17.96.050(B). Such considerations are blunted as to prevent discrimination by direct
recr,eance to the Federal Fair Housing Act in the same section of the Code.
This same balance is preserved in the allowed and conditional uses of RS-7 Residential,
Single Family, properties. Adult Family Homes are allowed outright in RS-7.zoning without the
need of a Conditional Use Permit. The residents of such homes are free from,discrimination, able
to live in tight knit communities and are afforded the ability to enjoy the benefit of a true
neighborhood. Since the facility is licensed with the Department of Health or the Department of
Social and Health Services,the residents are receiving the care required them by the state subject to
license reviews,and a process if complaints should arise. The rest of the neighborhood is kept
reasonably safe in the knowledge and fact that the facility meets state requirements and�there is a
process to resolve problems should they arise. No Conditional Use Permit is required for an Adult
Family Home,since the two public interests stated above are satisfied.
A "Group Home" is a conditional use so that the City can confirm that the care needed to
protect all the parties involved is either in place or taking place and put such restrictions-on the use
as may be needed to reduce the impact on the public. Lower risk to all,means lower oversight is
necessary. All interests are thus balanced.
PCMH cannot,.however,place a facility within a RS-7 neighborhood that has the risks and
requirements of an Adult Family Home and claim that the facility is only a Group Home because it
refuses to properly license or staff the facility. To allow this to happen,the Commission would fail
i,n its duty to balance safety and housing access. The public risk would be allowed without the
intended oversight.
The review for this Commission should not thus focus exclusively on if the property is
licenced, but rather if it should be licenced as an"Adult Family Home."
5. Reacquiring Proper Licensing is Not Discrimination.
To state once again,my clients' position is not that a facility for persons with mental health
1h
issues must not be allowed at 203 W. 12 Street. Their position is that the facility can only be
allowedunder Port Angeles City Code if it is properly monitored and staffed. It is for this reason
August 18, 2010
Planning Commission
Page - 5
that my clients' request this Commission to deny the Conditional Use Permit until the facility is
properly licensed with the Washington State Department of Health, or the Department of Health
confirms that the, facility,does.not-require licensing.
Any claim that this request is discriminatory is a "red herring," and is likely reverse
discrimination. The City, and this Commission, regularly approves Conditional Use Permits with
the requirement that the use is conditioned upon proper licensing with state or federal authorities.
That the use at issue before this Commission happens to be a residence for persons with metal illnes's
is beside the point. The point is, where there is a state regulatory system that protects all parties, it
is this Commission's-responsibility to condition any permit on current and continued compliance
with that system. Treating the neighbors to this facility differently from.any other neighbors of any
other applicant's facility, si ply because this applicant is housing the mentally ill, is a painful
411 .
distortion of logic and the law. Proof of state administrative compliance protects the public, the
residents of the facility, and the Commission's review process.
A review is prudent and would protect all parties. My clients do not believe it wi§e to simply
rely upon the assurance of PCMH when placed a sexual predator at the facility without any notice
to the neighbors,and only now produces a screening process for residence at,the facility under threat
of this hearing. Absent assurances from the Washington State.Department of Health of compliance,
PCMH's applications should be denied.
D. Conclusion
'Based on the above,my clients,.Mr.Ruddell and Dr. Howarth pray this Commission deny PCMH's
Conditional Use Permit until proper proof of licensing compliance canbe produced. In the
alternative,my clients request the permit be conditioned on proof of proper licensing and a review
be set for PCMH to show,proper compliance.
Sincerely,
PL IR F

inside. Both stated that Kavanaugh was listening to his headphones,walked over, grabbed the sink neck, and bent
it over. Nothing else appeared to be damaged. I spoke with Dawn Saiz with PCMH. Saiz stated that she was
unsure if PCMH wanted to pursue charges, but that she would contact her manager and notify me the next day.
Dispatch advised that Kavanaugh had a warrant for his arrest. I took Kavanaugh into custody and mirandized him
at 2236 hours. I asked Kavanaugh about the kitchen sink, to which he replied "It is a delicate faucet. I just put
some weight on it and it bent over." I got a message from Saiz that stated that PCMH did want to pursue criminal
charges against Kavanaugh. Based upon the facts and circumstances of this case, I have probable cause to
believe that Brian Kavanaugh knowingly and maliciously caused physical damage to the property of PCMH.
Case Status: Open Pending Arrest.
I certify(or declare)under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of Washington that the foregoing is true and correct. Written and signed in Port Angeles,WA.

COMMENTS: th
On 7/8/09 at approximately 2225 hours, I arrived at the location of a disturbance located at 203 W 12 St.
According to dispatch, a client was tearing up the kitchen. This address is a Peninsula Community Mental Health
group home that does not have an on-site staff member. The suspect was reported to be Brian Kavanaugh. Upon
arrival, I contacted Kavanaugh outside. I asked what was going on to which he replied "nothing". Corporal
Winfield arrived and I asked Kavanaugh to wait outside with him. I contacted Wesley Wharton and John Hutchison
inside. Both stated that Kavanaugh was listening to his headphones, walked over, grabbed the sink neck, and bent
it over. Nothing else appeared to be damaged. I spoke with Dawn Saiz with PCMH. Saiz stated that she was
unsure if PCMH wanted to pursue charges, but that she would contact her manager and notify me the next day.
Dispatch advised that Kavanaugh had a warrant for his arrest. I took Kavanaugh into custody and mirandized him
at 2236 hours. I asked Kavanaugh about the kitchen sink, to which he replied "It is a delicate faucet. I just put

The law states that Law Enforcement take those persons appearing incapacitated or gravely disabled by alcohol or other drugs into protective
custody and to a treatment facility. Where there is no treatment facility available, then it is the Hospital Emergency Room.
I am requesting the subject listed below held for a Mental Health Evaluation pursuant to RCW 71.05.153(2).

themselves or others and deliver them to the Hospital Emergency Room for treatment

House Requirements
It is our mission to help residents become active members of the community in
accordance with their desires and dreams. Below is a list of-housing requirements that
must be followed in order to remain in PCMHC agency housing.
Each resident must stay on their prescribed medications.
All agency houses are"Dry Houses". The consumption of alcohol or illegal drugs
on the premises or allowing visitors to bring or use alcohol or illegal, substances is
not allowed and may lead to immediate eviction.
Each house has a "NO WEAPONS"policy on the property at any time, by
anyone
No altero/at'ions to the property are allowed without written permission. Residents
will be required to pay for all damages made by themselves and or their guests.
Visiting hours are between 8:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m.
No smoking, or any type of lit flame such as candles is allowed 'inside the homes.
No pets/fish are allowed on the prenuises.
Peninsula Community Mental Health Center(PCMHC) is applying for a conditional use
permit for our house at 203 W. 12t" Street. The residence operates as a modified group
home for 4-6 unrelated adult residents. All of the tenants are disabled and have diagnoses
of Mental Illness. They have either limited or no contact with their families, few social
supports and subsist on low,fixed, monthly incomes typically ranging from $339.00 to
$637.00.
In a state licensed group home, staff are required to be on the premises of the house on a
24/7 basis because the residents are incapable of much self-reliance. Although the 12 1h
St. house residents benefit from structure and need some assistance with community
integration and their activities of daily living, they-,function in healthy, constructive.ways
with considerable independence. With periodic assistance, they manage.their finances,
take medication on their own,purchase and prepare the food they eat, wash their clothes,
and clean their living space.
The main goal of our house is to provide a comfortable and supportive living setting that
will allow each resident to strengthen their self-sufficiency skills so that in time they can
transition to more independent housing, as well as qualify or re-qualify for subsidized -
housing. We work to raise the quality of life for each resident and empower thern'to live
as capably as possible in our community.
To ensure the safety and well-being of tenants, PCMHC Designated-Mental.H-ealth
Professionals are availab le 24/7 to our residents for emergency support and crisis
response. Our Case Aides and Peer Support Specialists visit the residence 5-7 days per
week to provide coaching in nutrition,hygiene, time management,problem solving,
budgeting finances,transportation arrangement,health support service follow-through,
self-advocacy and vocational plans. We also have a Residence Aide living full-time in
the house that supports tenants with upkeep of living space, encourages compliance with
house expectations, regularly communicates with our Residential staff and assists our
Facility staff with maintenance of grounds.
Within the past seven months, we have completely renovated the outside of the house and
part of the inside so that it is more appealing for our residents and fits in more easily with
the upkeep and quality of homes of our neighbors. Also, members of our staff and Board
of Directors met with neighbors from 12"' and Oak streets to relationship-build, address
concerns and discuss ways in which we could increase involvement between our tenants
and neighbors.
Peninsula Community Mental Health Center (PCMHC) is applying for a conditional use
permit for our supported living housing unit at 203 W. 12th Street. This residence has
been utilized as a supported living/transitional housing unit for 4-6 unrelated adult
residents since 1997. All of the tenants who have resided at this location since 1997 have
been low income individuals who have been diagnosed with a mental illness. The typical
monthly incomes of residents who rent rooms in this supported housing unit range from
$339.00 to $637.00.
Of the six current residents at this location, one has a vehicle and typically parks it on
12th street. The other five residents take public transportation as necessary. In addition,
one of the current residents is employed.
Staff from PCMHC visit the residence 4-7 days per week to provide coaching and skill
building activities such as self-advocacy skills training, social interpersonal skills
training,meal preparation, and house cleaning. The main goal in supported housing is to
provide an independent living setting with minimal supports that will allow the each
resident to transition to housing that is operated independently of the mental health center
over time. We work to raise the quality of life for each client and empower them to live
independently in our community.
None of the residents in the supported living unit meet the criteria for'higher levels of
n ' dependent living services such as group home,board and care, or inpatient
on-in
treatment. Each of these services require 24-hour staffing on site.

Date: March 31, 2011 DePt.of community Deveiga
The meeting was held at the Peninsula Community Mental Health Center, 118 East 8 th
Street, Port Angeles, WA., in the Multi-Purpose Room.
Peter 0. Casey, Executive Director, began the meeting at 6:05 pm. Attendees of the
meeting introduced themselves to each other.
Dr. Howarth stated that things seem to be quiet and respectfu' l in the neighborhood.
Peter stated we did not hear from other neighbors in regards to whether anyone
else would be attending the meeting.
Peter stated to Dr. Howarth that he noticed some houses for sale in the neighborhood. Dr.
Howarth stated that he thought that one of the houses for sale had nothing to do with it
being located near our agency's owned house. He thought others could just be
coincidental.
Peter stated that he is glad things are going well in the neighborhood.
Dr. Howarth commented our property looks nice. No police cars have been there for a
while either.
Dawn mentioned that Jerry Remick, a PCMHC Case Manger was present at all of our
houses on an ongoing basis. He will be facilitating some more groups for the residents and
the current groups are well attended. Jerry states we are trying to put our best foot
forward.
Dr. Howarth said since the last meeting there hasn't been any problems.
Peter stated that what we have done is have people go to the houses on a regular basis to
keep in touch with the residents. Dr. Howarth stated that even people without mental
illness decompensate.
Dawn stated that another peer counselor will be hired soon. Peer counselors help with
being proactive with clients.
Dr. Howarth stated that it seems that the house lights at our residence are not on as

Howarth asked if residents have any liking for yard work.
Peter stated that we have an arrangement with someone at Serenity House that provides
gardening work for clients as well.

Community Meeting
Peter asked if Dr. Howa'rPn knew why other neighbors weren't Othe meeting. Dr. Howarth
thought they could be intimidated by the mental health environment or not able to voice
or address their fears. Dr. Howarth states that in his interactions with other neighbors he
informs that he will be attending the meetings here.
Dr. Howarth asked David if he could encourage the residents to work outside and do yard
work. It could show the neighborhood that they are involved.
Jerry commented that the community needs to know that recovery is hopeful and the
community need not be afraid of people with mental illnesses. Jerry asked if Dr. Howarth
thought that having a panel discussion comprised of people who have been through
mental health challenges would be helpful for the neighbors. Dr. Howarth stated that he
wasn't really sure why neighbors didn't show and wasn't sure if they would come out for a
panel.
Peter stated he thinks that people have misconceptions about clients. Peter commented
that a couple of years ago our agency partnered with NAMI and showed a movie titled
"Out of the Shadows". a story about mental illness.
Peter commented to Dr. Howarth about our Fundraiser that was coming on May 13 th with
speaker Patty Duke. Dr. Howarth seemed very interested in coming and Peter presented
him with some information. He also mentioned that he thought it was a great idea for us
to have a fundraiser.
Dawn and Jerry commented about showing a DVD to the community to help people gain
more knowledge about mental health issues. Dawn stated we could invite the neighbors
currently living around all of our residential houses.
Peter stated that we have a new Medical Director, Dr. Joshua Jones.
Dr. Howarth states he is familiar with Bi Polar illness due to family members suffering
from it.
Peter commented that we have a good Board of Directors and asked Dr. Howarth to
consider being a member. Peter will send him some information regarding our Board of
Directors.
Jerry asked how case managers could help more. Dr. Howarth stated he will think on it
and let us know, but mainly resolving incidents, documenting and feedback. Peter
commented that neighbors don't always know why PAPD are present; it may not be
always a really bad thing. Dr. Howarth thinks that this was a fear factor for some
neighbors.
Dr. Howarth stated there was no sense in continuing the meeting and he was finished with
questions. Peter thanked Dr. Howarth for coming.
Meeting adjourned at 6:35 pm.
Next meeting is not currently scheduled.

Subject: I enjoyed the opportunity to meet with you and your representatives last night
Peter,
I hope you and your staff did not infer that my comments were intended to be anything other than helpful. I
thought the meeting was very interactive and positive until Betsy Schultz spoke. As I said I said at the meeting, I
believe that"outreach' projects such as the one we were all involved in last night, serve an educational purpose
through better communication. Communication requires interaction and I believe that there were good efforts
extended on your part....and I appreciated that. I was disappointed in the turnout last night. Still, our neighbor
next door was in California, Linda was in Colorado, and Mr Ruddell was at a business meeting.
Peter, I have seen good things happening next door and, although the process we have just gone through has
been painful at times, I think the long view will ONLY make PMHC a stronger organization with more credibility.
In my own profession, I am scrutinized daily by all sorts of federal, state, and local mandates. I don't particularly
like it, but when you are viewed as a "public servant" and receive "public funding" it kind of goes with the
territory. I do think it keeps us ever conscious of the highest standard we are capable of.
Once again, I appreciate your efforts and hope that you never fear a well meaning question from me or anyone
else in our community......................Kindest regards.............Steve

Peninsula Community Mental Health Center
Residential Housing Community Meeting
Present: Peter 0. Casey, Dawn Saiz, Bran Sundt, Betsy Schultz, Max Bert, Julie Calabria,
Grant Munro, Loretta Vlaardingerbroek, Deb Reed, Steve Howarth, William Dole
Minutes: Brenda Gilchrist, Supervisor of Office Services
Date: October 20, 2010
The meeting was held at the Peninsula Community Mental Health Center, 118 East 8 th
Street, Port Angeles, WA., in the Multi-Purpose Room.
Peter 0. Casey, Executive Director, began the meeting at 6:10 pm. Attendees of the
meeting introduced themselves to each other.
Steve Howarth, a neighbor of the 12 th Street residence, stated since the Conditional Use
Permit Hearing that was held on September 8, the neighborhood is quiet and the
'night/day cycle' seems to be more normal.
Peter would like all involved to come together. His goal is to have a good relationship with
the neighbors of the 12 th Street residence.
Dawn Saiz, Residential Housing Supervisor, stated that Max Bert, a Peer Counselor, is in
the 12 th Street house at night from Sunday through Wednesday, and another staff
member, Everett Zentz is in the house during the day. There is also a resident aide
that lives in the house.
Steve asked if the resident aide was a client. Dawn stated that he was.
Steve asked if residents cook for themselves. Dawn said that housemates do fix there
own food.
Dawn stated that staff is there at least twice per day. Case managers are there frequently
as well.
Steve asked if lack of structure was to account for what has happened. He would like to
see the house fulfill its mission and make good decisions. He wants to see the residential
home succeed with it's purpose.
Peter stated the agency has been moving towards repairing the homes even before the
CUP issues arose. Peter passed out a PCMHC policy entitled; "Supportive Housing
Admission Guidelines". The policy states the screening requirements that,clients must
meet to ensure they are appropriate for the level of residential living and supervision that
is required for the house in which they are proposed to live in.
Steve asked if a center was available for people that need more supervision than what can
be offered at residential living places. He asked how the agency handles clients that need
more supervision as well as how it is determined where they are to be placed when they
have been through the judicial system. Peter stated client placement is not determined
whether or not someone has been involved in the judicial system. Client placement is
based on a number of qualifications. Placement is determined if they have had
hospitalization or not; if they have drug/alcohol problems as well as mental health issues.
Usually someone being discharged from a hospital may go to Second Street House. It is
Page 1 of 2

Community Meeting
structured with staff 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Meals, supervision and
medications are highly monitored.
Steve asked where do clients go that need to detox. Peter mentioned that Washington
State has detox centers if a client's need is greater that what we can handle.
Bran Sundt, member of the Board of Directors, stated that times have changed and that
people have more choices now to get help.
th
Steve stated he had raised the issue because of the proximity of the 12 Street house to
schools. Peter stated that we are very sensitive to the concerns of the neighbors and we
aim to have our best functioning clients in the supportive units. Clients that need more
care are placed in residences that are closer to PCMHC. Steve asked if residents submit to
drug tests. Julie Calabria, Clinical Supervisor, stated that residents need to be clean and
sober to live in residential housing. If clients are not willing to get help then they may not
be able to live independently. Bran stated that co-occurring programs are very promising.
Steve stated that if all the neighbors or other concerned citizens knew about these
structures that were in place there would be less worry. Dawn said she wants clients to
stay stable.
Betsy Schultz, a neighbor and owner of the Tutor Inn, states there have been 3 life and
death situations in the neighborhood in the last few years. She doesn't want to know
personally what the micro managing aspects are of the house. She trusts PCMHC to take
care of the house and is comfortable with what PCMHC is doing with the house. She
commented she is not talking to the other neighbor's in regards to how they handle their
personal stuff either. She believes in what PCMHC is doing. Deb Reed, President of the
Board of Directors, commented she trusts the system at PCMHC as well.
Steve is happy to participate and wants to help.
Deb would like Steve's wife to be reassured. Steve wants to focus on process and
outreach, not policy, etc.
Julie stated that PCMHC has a Crisis Team available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and
they can be utilized for the house residents. Steve sees residential aide as helping to stop
future crisis situations.
Peter would like to know how we get information out to others that are concerned. Steve
thought that more neighbors would attend this meeting but did not know why they didn't.
Steve thought that 3 more meetings might not be necessary. Grant Munro, Vice President
of the Board of Directors, stated that we are committed through the conditions set forth
by the City CUP Hearing.
Minutes from this meeting will be sent to the Port Angeles City to document the meeting
did take place. Minutes will be made available to neighbors as well.
Peter stated we can get minutes to people who may not have access to electronics, if
needed. Minutes from quarterly meetings will be sufficient for all concerned neighbors. No
individual side meeting will be arranged.
Next meeting is scheduled sometime after the beginning of January 2011.
Meeting adjourned at 6:35 pm.

CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT—CUP 10-02—PENINSULA COMMUNITY
MENTAL HEALTH (PCMH)- 203 West Twelfth Street: Request to permit a
group home in the RS-7 Residential Single Family zone.
Community and Economic Development Director West reviewed the Department
Report recommending approval of the application. He described the public notification
process and stated that all written comments submitted were attached to the staff report. He
also stated that the staff report sent out on September 3, 2010, was a draft, and that staff had
incorporated the new staff report with the new comments submitted. He stated that staff
recommended approval with conditions, findings, and conclusions.
Commissioner Bruch addressed a letter that questioned the group home's licensing
requirements. Director West stated that staff has researched the licensing requirements at
length with the Washington State Department of Health, the Washington State Department of
Health and Social Services, and the Peninsula Regional Support Network, and that staff was
able to verify that a license is not required for the use as proposed. Commissioner Boyle
asked if the City Attorney agreed with the licensing need assessment. Attorney Bloor stated
that the City of Port Angeles does not issue the operational license and he does not have a
reason to disagree with the statement. Commissioner Boyle asked if Peninsula Community
Mental Health had similar homes in the City, County, or State. Director West stated that
PCMH does operate other group homes in the City.
Chair Matthews reviewed the quasi-judicial public hearing guidelines and qualifying
statements with Commission members. All Commissioners responded, for the record,that
they did not have appearance of fairness or conflict of interest issues with regard to the
pending public hearing matter. Chair Matthews opened the public hearing at 6:35 p.m., and
stated that the public would have a 2 V2 minute time limit to speak due to the large number of
people who wish to testify. Chair Matthews indicated that those who testify must sign the
"Sign In" log and affirm that their testimony will be truthful to the best of their knowledge.
Peter Casey, 242 Leprechaun Lane,Port Angeles, WA, Executive Director of
Peninsula Community Mental Health, agreed with the recommendations of the City of Port
Angeles Planning staff. He described changes in operation of the residence that have been
recently implemented and stated that the home is operating better than in the past. He
described the other group homes that are operated in the City of Port Angeles, and the need
for these facilities in our area. He addressed some of the issues that the group home had
experienced recently and stated that they only three police responses had been necessary in
the past six months as a result of the changes.
Commissioner Boyle asked if any other facilities were licensed. Mr. Casey stated
that one 24-hour care facility is state licensed. Commissioner Bruch asked if any of the other
facilities are having the same issues with the emergency calls. Mr. Casey stated that
individuals with mental health issues will have breakdowns but most of the police reports are
for innocuous reasons. He discussed their ongoing relationship with the City of Port Angeles
Police Department and said that they have made a lot of improvements over the previous
three to six months to address the need for emergency calls.
Commissioner Powers asked about the community outreach plan. Mr. Casey
explained plans for a community outreach plan that includes contact with neighbors who
Planning Commission Minu Pes
September 8, 2010
Page 6
express concerns and continuing to meet with the neighborhood and affected property
owners.
Chair Matthews asked questions about why they had gone so long without a
conditional use permit. Mr. Casey explained that Peninsula Community Mental Health was
under the impression that they did not need a conditional use permit for a supportive living
residence based upon advice from a previous City Attorney.
Commissioner Boyle asked if granting the conditional use permit would cause
Peninsula Community Mental Health to change any management or policy actions. Mr.
Casey stated that they had already made numerous changes.
Chair Matthews asked if occupants at the home require different levels of monitoring.
Mr. Casey replied by discussing their 24-hour care facility and the transitions patients make
between the two facilities.
Commissioner Boyle asked if Peninsula Community Mental Health is a for-profit
organization. Mr. Casey replied that PCMH is a non-profit organization. Commissioner
Boyle asked questions about State cuts and funding.
Rosie von Engel, 1301 South 3 rd Avenue, Sequim, WA, spoke on behalf of the local
Clallarn County Chapter for the National Alliance of Mental Illness. She thanked the
Commissioners for a chance to educate the public on mental illness and described her
children's issues with brain disorders. She discussed the issues regarding people not wanting
facilities like this in their own backyard and stated that not everyone with a mental illness is a
felon.
Arlene Engel, PO Box 250, Sequim, WA, provided information on individuals with
brain disorders and stated that it is a genetics issue. She was grateful to staff for their
positive recommendation and supported the proposal.
Betsy Reed Schultz, 1108 South Oak Street,Port Angeles, WA, spoke in support of
the facility stating that if PCMH receives support they will become a shining star in our
community.
Glen Barbieri, 401 East, 5'Street, #117,Port Angeles, WA, has schizophrenia and
described his personal history with mental illness. While he understands the general public's
concerns about the use, he knows the occupants who live in the house, and he supports
approval of the action.
Dr. Steven Howarth, 207 West 12'h Street,PortAngeles, WA, stated that he filed the
initial inquiry into the residence on 12'h Street. He provided a brief history of the issues and
meetings he had with Peter Casey. He believes that Peninsula Community Mental Health
and the City of Port Angeles have failed, and wants the people in the house to get better care
as well as less police involvement.
Vivian Mulligan, 1620 East 5h Street,Port Angeles, WA, Secretary of the Clallam
County Chapter for the National Alliance on Mental Illness, described her family's history
with brain disorders and stated that not everyone is lucky enough to have a family to take
care of them. She stated that the community should not turn these people away and
applauded the Planning Commission.

Barb McFall,PO Box 1746,Port Angeles, WA, described her work with PCMH as a
Port Angeles Police Officer. She stated that her concerns stemmed from the house needing
to be properly maintained and supervised.
Patrick Irwin, 403 South Peabody,Port Angeles, WA, spoke on behalf of his clients,
Howard Ruddell and Dr. Steven Howarth. He considered the issue to be what conditions the
facility could operate under, not whether the facility should exist. He said that his clients'
concerns are that the home operate under needed supervision and that consumers are cared
for properly. He discussed licensing requirements for adult family homes and supported
living units and asked about the Washington State Department of Social and Health Services
(DSHS) licensing requirements. The Washington DSHS staff did not know the licensing
requirements, He lodged a complaint with the State over the issue. He stated that there are
benefits to the community in having this facility, but it needs to operate in compliance with
any State licensing requirements. Mr. Irwin responded to a question from Commissioner
Powers by stating that the State needed more time and information on the issue.
Deb Reed, 172 7 East Woodhaven Lane,Port Angeles, WA, President of the
Peninsula Community Mental Health Board of Directors, spoke regarding issues that Barb
McFall raised regarding the facility.
Linda Howarth, 207 West 12"'Street,Port Angeles, WA, spoke regarding her
professional background as a nurse. She stated that one of the residents of the home had
threatened a neighbor child. She was concerned with safety issues relating to the facility.
Louisa Monger, 1312 South Laurel Street,Port Angeles, WA also spoke regarding
the safety issues related to the facility.
Grant Munro, 1765 East Woodhaven Lane,Port Angeles, WA Peninsula
Community Mental Health Board member, spoke in favor of the Conditional Use Permit and
stated that they will continue their efforts in maintaining the home.
Michael Juhas, 302 West 11th Street,Port Angeles, WA, spoke regarding the safety
issues at the facility including number of police incidents, a sex offender living at the facility
for two months last year, and the proximity of two elementary schools in the area. He asked
that the Commission postpone their decision to do further research on the issue.
Dawn Saiz, 118 East 8h Street,Port Angeles, WA, Residential Supervisor for
Peninsula Community Mental Health, discussed the history of the facility. She stated that
these facilities are a necessity in our community and offered to assist neighborhood residents
with questions. She can be reached at any time.
Becky Daniel, 257516 Highway 101,PortAngeles, WA, stated that her son has
schizophrenia and has received excellent care while in residence at the 12'h Street facility.
Howard Ruddell, 136 West 12'h Street,Port Angeles, WA, said that it was not an
argument about whether this kind of care is needed, but whether the residents of the facility
receive proper care. If the facility had been properly managed, a number of recent incidents
would likely not have occurred. He asked City staff if Jefferson and Queen of Angels
Schools had been notified for the conditional use permit hearing. Finally, he asked that the
Commission postpone the issue and thanked the Peninsula Daily News for attending the
meeting. Director West replied that Queen of Angels School was notified but that Jefferson
School was not because it was not within the 300-foot requirement for notification.

Julie Calabria, 253 Shadow Lane,Port Angeles, WA, Clinical Director for Peninsula
Community Mental Health, spoke in favor of the permit.
Mary Benavidez, 41 Shiloh Lane,Sequim, WA, spoke regarding the comments about
recent police reports. She stated that not everyone had correct information about incidents at
the facility according to the police reports that she has read.
Peter Casey, 242 Leprechaun Lane,PortAngeles, WA,Executive Director of
Peninsula Community Mental Health, provided information in rebuttal to individual public
testimony. He addressed concerns about facility incidents and about whether this is an issue
of people not wanting a facility like this in their community.
There being no further testimony, Chair Matthews closed the public hearing at 7:42
p.m.
Commissioner Bruch began discussion on stipulations regarding the outreach plan
and suggested that Peninsula Community Mental Health be required to communicate with the
neighborhood at least once a year. She stated that increased communication between PCMH
and the neighborhood is important, especially if there are any registered sex offenders.
Director West addressed state licensing issues, stating that the State only requires
licensing for Adult Family Homes and reiterated that the subject application for Peninsula
Community Mental Health is not for that type of facility. The Commission could choose to
add conditions regarding communication with the neighborhood, but an additional finding
would also need to be added to support such a condition. Commissioner Powers suggested,
and Peter Casey agreed, to communicate with the neighborhood at least four times a year.
Attorney Bloor stated that it was implicit in the Port Angeles Zoning Code that any operation
that needs a conditional use permit must comply with state law in such operation.
Chair Matthews discussed the issue surrounding the supervision at the facility as well
as communication with the neighborhood. He agreed with Commissioner Powers that
regular communication with the neighborhood is necessary and suggested adding this as a
condition. Commissioner Bruch agreed with Chair Matthews, but Commissioner Powers had
some objections to adding specifics to the conditions.
Commissioner Bruch expressed her concerns about Peninsula Community Mental
Health's other facilities and if they are having the same issues as this location.
Commissioner Powers wondered how the City would be informed if the home is not being
maintained properly. Director West stated that the applicant is required to comply with the
conditions of approval in maintenance of the site. If the site is not maintained properly, it
will likely be either reported or noticed.
Chair Matthews suggested adding wording to condition#3 that neighborhood forums
be held on a quarterly basis for the first year and semi-annually thereafter. He asked what
kind of facility this is,to which Director West replied that it is considered a supportive living
residence. Director West noted that the Port Angeles Municipal Code does not currently
contain a definition for"supportive living residences", so the City is relying on the State's
definition.
Commissioner Bruch moved to approve Conditional Use Permit 10-02 with the 4
conditions,26 findings, and 8 conclusions recommended by staff in support of the
action. Director West stated that if condition#3 was changed from staff's
recommendation, Finding#19 would also need to be modified. Attorney Bloor clarified
the rules associated with modifying conditions,findings, and conclusions. The motion
died for lack of a second.

Director West responded to questions regarding possible modifications to the
recommended conditions and findings to address the Commission's concerns regarding
timing of outreach forums and state licensing. He recommended taking a short recess to draft
the modifications. Chair Matthews recessed the meeting for a break at 8:11 p.m. The
meeting reconvened at 8:27 p.m.
Following reading the suggested modifications into the record,
Commissioner Bruch moved to approve Conditional Use Permit 10-02 subject to
the following modified conditions, supported by the following modified findings, and
conclusions:
Conditions:
1. The conditional use permit is approved for Peninsula Community Mental Health to
operate a group home use at 203 West 12 th Street per application identified as
Conditional Use Permit CUP 10-02 dated received on July 6, 2010. The use shall
include a Resident Aide as described in said application. Any change in the operation
of the residence will require prior review by the Planning Commission or the
approval shall be deemed invalidated.
2. PCMH will carefully screen clients pursuant to their policy for safety and well being
to live in a residential family zone.
3. A neighborhood outreach plan shall be developed that will inform neighbors of the
program goals and provide a forum where issues of concern will be addressed by
PCMH in operation of the group home use. These forums shall be conducted on a
quarterly basis for the first year, and them semi-annually thereafter. The plan shall
include a method for reporting a summary of meetings with neighbors and how
concerns were addressed, or if any concerns were noted, that will become part of the
public record file. The outreach plan shall be provided to the Planning Commission
within one month of approval of the permit.
4. The renovated residence will continue to be maintained in the current manner such
that it complements other residences in the neighborhood in appearance and
character. The off street parking area at the rear of the residence will remain
available for residents and visitors.
5. The applicant shall obtain any required State and/or Federal licensing and shall
observe all such applicable regulations throughout the proposed occupancy.

RS-7 Residential Single Family zone under Section 17.10.040(1) PAMC. Section
17.10.040(R) PAMC allows for other uses compatible with the intent of this Chapter
as conditional uses. A supported living home is nearly identical to a group home.
3. A Conditional Use is defined in Section 17.08.020(H) of the PAMC as "a use
permitted in a zone but which requires a special degree of control to make such use
consistent and compatible with other existing or permissible uses in the same zone."
4. A GroLip Home is defined in Section 17.08.040(C) of the Port Angeles Municipal
Code as "... a non-independent, non-family, housekeeping unit in which the residents
are assisted by an outside agency or organization. Some examples ofgroup homes
include state licensed homesfor the handicapped andphysically disabled, homesfor
the mentally ill, hom�sjbr those with developmental disabilities, except that group
homes do not include adultfamily homes, supported living arrangements or
residential carejacilities. They also include state licensedgroup homesfor
residential centersfor rehabilitation jrom alcohol and drugs, and transitional
housingfor victims of domestic violence."
5. The proposed living arrangement is described as "supported living"by the
Department of Health. WAC 388-101-3000 defines supported living as "instruction,
support, and services provide by service providers to clients living in homes that are
owned, rented, or leased by the client or their legal representative.
6. Section 17.10.010 of the Port Angeles Municipal Code describes the RS-7 Residential
Single Famil zone as a "...low density residential zone intended to create and
Y
preserve urban singlejamily residential neighborhoods consisting ofpredominantly
singlejamily homes on standard Townsite sized lots. Uses which are compatible with
andjunctionally related to a singlejamily residential environment may also be
located in this zone. " Conditional uses that may be located in the RS-7 zone include
but are not limited to accessory residential units, assisted living facilities, child day
cares, and churches.
7. A Conditional Use Permit is defined in Section 17.08.020(G) of the Port Angeles
Municipal Code as "... a limited permission to locate a particular use at a particular
location, and which limited permission is required to modify the controls stipulated
by these Regulations in such degree as to assure that the particular use shall not prove
detrimental to surrounding properties, shall not be in conflict with the Comprehensive
Plan, and shall not be contrary to the public interest" and further states in(H) of the
same section"Conditional Use - a use permitted in a zone but which requires a
special degree of control to make such use consistent and compatible with other
existing or permissible uses in the same zone."
8. Section 17.96.050 of the Port Angeles Municipal Code provides that"The Planning
Commission shall consider applications for conditional use permits for uses specified
in the applicable Chapter of the Zoning Regulations. The Planning Commission may
grant said permits which are consistent and compatible with the purpose of the zone
in which the use is located, are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, and not
contrary to the public use and interest. The Planning Commission may refuse to issue
a conditional use permit if the characteristics of the intended use as related to the
Planning Commission Minutes

specific proposed site are such as would defeat the purpose of these Zoning
Regulations by introducing incompatible, detrimental, or hazardous conditions. In
each application the Planning Commission may impose whatever restrictions or
conditions they consider essential to protect the public health, safety, and welfare, and
to prevent depreciation of neighboring property."
9. Section 17.96.070(A) PAMC provides"Hearing and Appeal of Conditional or
Unclassified Use Permit Applications. Notice and Hearing for Conditional or
Unclassified Use Permits. Upon filing an application for a conditional or unclassified
use permit in which the application sets forth fully the grounds for, and the facts
deemed to justify, the granting of a Conditional or Unclassified Use Permit, the
Planning Commission shall give public notice, as provided in PAMC 17.96.140, of
the intention to consider at a public hearing the granting of a Conditional or
Unclassified Use Permit." The Planning Commission's decision is final unless
appealed to the City Council.
10. Conditional Use Permit(CUP 91(6)10) was approved for Peninsula Mental Health to
conduct a group home to house teen age girls at 203 West 12th Street on June 12,
1991. The use was approved with conditions. The permit expired in August, 1996.
11. The occupancy of 203 W. 12th Street changed to adults in the mid 1990's. City staff
was not informed of the change in occupancy. PCMH staff believed that the City's
definition of a"family," found in Section 17.08.035"F"(A) of the PAMC, permitted
the occupancy of up to 6 unrelated adults without a conditional use permit. The use
went unreported until November, 2009, when neighbors brought the matter to the
City's attention and staff contacted PCMH staff.
12. The site is situated in the City's Central Planning Area that is served by all municipal
emergency services.
13. The neighborhood is a well-established, completely built out, traditional
neighborhood comprised of single family homes mainly on individual lots. The area
is commonly referred to as"Cherry Hill" and is identified by the location of the
Queen of Angels Church and convent/elementary school (two blocks immediately
north of the property), St. Matthew's Lutheran Church and daycare, and Jefferson
Elementary School (three blocks east of the-site). A well-established bed and
breakfast use is located adj acent to the site north of the 11/12 Alley with other
commercial uses located north along 8th Street and south to Lauridsen Boulevard.
PCMH's main office facility is located four blocks north on 8th Street from the
location. The City's main fire hall is located seven blocks immediately north of the
site.
14. The proposed supported living home is located on a single Townsite lot developed as
a six-bedroom residential structure. The site is completely fenced and provides
parking at the rear. The structure and grounds have been considerably upgraded over
the past year such that it blends in well with surrounding residential uses.
15. Consumers of Peninsula Community Mental Health services who will reside in.the
home do not live independently. These residents have been diagnosed with mental
illness and are in need of some assistance in their daily lives that is provided by
Planning Commission Minutes
September 8, 2010
Page 12
PCMH. They have either limited or no contact with their families and few social
supports. The residents are able to manage their finances, take medication on their
own,purchase and prepare food, and perform housekeeping and some residence
maintenance activities. PCMH Case Aides and Peer Support Specialists visit the
residence 5 —7 days per week to provide coaching in nutrition, hygiene, time
management, problem solving, budgeting,transportation, health support, and
vocational plans.
16. The applicant has proposed a home where a resident consumer will be trained to be a
Residence Aide with responsibility for daily management duties with oversight by
PCMH professionals as an in house level of supervision. The Resident Aide will be
under the direct supervision of a state-certified Residential Supervisor. The Resident
Aide will communicate regularly with residential staff, assist in maintenance of
grounds and encourage compliance with house rules. Application information
indicates that consumers who occupy this type of group residence do not need 24-
hour care but would benefit from in-house supervision.
17. PCMH Director Peter Casey indicated that residents will be screened to ensure that
at-risk individuals will not be placed in the residence. PCMH has a policy to s.creen
residents for placement within a residential zone given a number of factors including
safety and well-being and criminal history. Consumers who do not meet the criteria
will not be placed in the residence. Mr. Casey acknowledged that an unfortunate
resident placement went unnoticed for many years but when this information was
made known to staff, the individual was immediately removed from the residence to a
more appropriate location.
18. Although unlicensed for the past 12 years, the home use has been in place and
operated by PCMH with little incident for a total of 18 years at the subject location.
Mr. Casey and PCMH staff have been working with City staff to bring the use into
compliance with local zoning laws and to conduct an outreach program to the
neighborhood that will be a forum to identify and address any issues that may arise
from the occupancy in the future.
19. Neighbors to the home contacted City staff in November, 2009, to discuss occupancy
concerns following a meeting with PCMH staff in October. Neighbors expressed a
desire to initiate a neighborhood outreach and education program similar to the
condition that was attached to Conditional Use Permit CUP 91(06)10. PCMH
Director Casey is aware of the advantages of such a program and agreed to initiate
same. In order to fulfill the purposes of the condition, such a forum, held on a
quarterly basis, will ensure adequate communication and informed improvement to
the program. The previous conditional use permit required monitoring during
extension review of the CUP.
20. The Federal Fair Housing Act (FFHA) requires that licensing requirements shall not
violate the rights of individuals to reasonable accommodations in zoning practices.
Conditional use permits may not discriminate against the handicapped but shall
protect their safety as well as the safety of the community in general.

21. The City of Port Angeles allows for group home use by conditional use permit in all
residential zones. Such review is intended to identify emergency service needs and
identify particular characteristics of individual neighborhoods.
22. Peninsula Community Mental Health operates under oversight by the Departments of
Health(DOH) and Social and Health Services (DSHS).
23. The Federal Housing Authority Act(FHAA) has limited some municipal zoning
authority in an effort to avoid stereotyping to achieve community integration. The
common policy per FHAA is to require group homes to be distributed throughout the
community where residents are able to live in mainstream residential neighborhoods
rather than in a cluster of group homes segregated from the rest of the community.
Local zoning regulations maintain some authority over locational siting but
regulations must be administered similarly to any such group occupancy.
24. The Port Angeles Comprehensive Plan was reviewed it in its entirety in analysis of
this application. The goals, policies, and objectives listed in Attachment B to this
staff report were found to be the most applicable to the proposed use.
25. Public notification was mailed to property owners within 300 feet of the subject site
and posted on the property on July 29, 2010, and August 24, 2010. Notification was
placed in the Peninsula Daily News on August 24, 2010, with written comment
accepted by September 7, 20 10. Comments provided by neighbors with regard to the
use during the written public comment period are attached as Attachment"C"to this
staff report. Written comment provided after the close of the written comment period
were presented at the public hearing to be included in the record. Those written
comments were provided by Arlene Engel, Linda Gorden, Randy Bailey, Rosie von
Engel, Kay Snowbrook, Janice Reid, and Betty Brooks.
26. A Determination of NonSignificance was issued for the proposed action on
September 8, 2010, per WAC 197-11-3 5 5. This action satisfies the City's
responsibility under the Washington State Environmental Policy Act(SEPA).
27. It is implicit in the Port Angeles Municipal Code that all conditional uses must be in
compliance with State and Federal law.
Conclusions:
Based on the information provided in the Department of Community Development
Staff Report for CUP 10-02 dated August 25, 20 10, including all of the information in the
public record file, comments, and testimony presented during the public hearing, the
Planning Commission's discussion and deliberation, and the above listed conditions of
approval and listed findings, the City of Port Angeles Planning Commission hereby
concludes that:
A. The use as proposed mirrors the definition of a group home as defined in Section
17.08.040(C) of the Port Angeles Municipal Code and is permissible by conditional
use permit in the RS-7 Residential Single Family zone under Section 17.10.040(R)
PAMC. , Group homes and supported living arrangements ensure that special needs
individuals are afforded reasonable accommodation in their residential living
situations and are not clustered in institutional environments when such individuals
Planning Commission Minutes
September 8, 2010
Page 14
are prepared to live more independently. This practice empowers such individuals to
live as capably as possible with responsible supervision.
B. The conditional use permit was processed per Section 17.96.050 of the Port Angeles
Municipal Code with conditions attached to protect the public health, safety, and
welfare, and to prevent depreciation of neighboring property.
C. An outreach program will enable the neighborhood an opportunity to participate in
the success of the home through familiarity with the residents and knowledge of the
procedures of the home. The program will provide an opportunity to communicate
before concerns become issues and will ensure the safety and well-being of residents
and the neighborhood.
D. Registration of group homes and supported living arrangements protects residents and
identifies their homes for responders during emergency and general aid calls. Review
of the location of group homes and supported living arrangements ensures that the
uses will integrate well into residential neighborhoods while providing reasonable
accommodation to all groups of people.
E. As conditioned, the residence will be maintained in an updated manner consistent
with other neighborhood properties and will therefore ensure the retention of
neighborhood property values in the single family neighborhood in which the site is
located.
F. The Residence Aide will be able to quickly respond to any issues that may arise in the
residence thereby reducing the need for outside assistance from either the City's
emergency services or PCMH employees. Property maintenance skills will benefit
group residents and enhance the neighborhood value as a whole. The group home
will be supported by PCMH professionals on a daily basis ensuring that the special
needs population will be supported.
G. As conditioned, the residence will be operated in accordance with the plan and policy
of the PCMH.
H. As conditioned, the use is in compliance with goals,policies, and objectives of the
City's Comprehensive Plan, specifically with Growth Management Element Goal A
and Policy A.Ld; Land Use Element Land Use Map, Goals, Policies, and Objectives
Goal A, and Policy A.2; Residential Goals, Policies, and Objectives Goal B, and
Policy B.1, and Goal C and Policy C.1; Utilities and Public Services Element Goal A
and Policy A.3, and Goal B and Policy B.2; Housing Element Goal A. and Zoning
Ordinance.
The motion was seconded by Commissioner Boyle, and passed 5-0.

To the Planning Commission,
As a member of the Clallain County Alliance on Mental Illnessand one of the families out of four
touched by the devastation wrought on our loved ones by these debilitating conditions, I want to thank
you for your decision to grant 12th St. House their permit.
It is the decision of NAMI CC to approach this with an attitude toward education. Even though she
spoke against the granting of the permit we must thank Barb McFall for her service as a law
enforcement officer.Naturally her experience with the "mentally ill"'has been only within the context of
cases involving crises or crimes often with alcohol and drugs. We would ask her to remember that to
apply an experience of a crime to a neighborhood situation might be leaving out some vital information
about.the people involved. They are not the same people as the ones you have been called to as an
officer. They have not shown themselves to be a danger. If a Doberman bites you, you might believe
every Doberman is a danger. We all know that is not the case.
NAMI has created and presents in co-operation with local law enforcement an educational program
called Crisis Intervention Training, CIT, serving law enforcement in theirefforts to understand our loved
ones. It has been presented here twice. LE personnel are invited into our homes. We chat for an hour or
more. They don't bring weapons. Many confess nervousness and fear of the unknown prior to meeting.
All express gratitude for new understanding at closure.
Both the police and we of NAMI understand that you should not be, but due to a broken mental health
system, you have BECOME the first and often only people that can put in motion a process that might
save the life of those we love. And we thank you for all you do.
I understand that another NAMI member will'be sending the conu-nission some statistics on violence
and mental health as well as a listing of three years' worth of police calls to this residence. You will see
that the calls reflect the trust.these residents place in the police.
Thank you for your work,and for considering this inforination. If you have any questions on these
conditions,recent legislation affecting your work or about ICT please call our President at 360-683-

Commissioners,
I support and applaud yourdecision to grant 12'h St. House a conditional use permit.
I am commenting on the letter submitted by Platt/Irwin.Law firm for Howard Ruddell
and Dr. Stephen Howarth.
I carefully examined the police reports they provided. Nowhere in them could I find
evidence of what Irwin/Platt calls, on pg. 2 " a full and violent breakdown of one of the
residents". By the way; a full and violent breakdown is not against any law unless
someone or thing is injured. There is a report of a short fight between two of the residents
which resolved with them returning to their rooms and one of a resident twisting.the
kitchen faucet upside down.
It is this continuous, insensitive and inaccurate reporting full of sensational wording,
purposefully used to raise'emotion that perpetuates thefear and stigma leading to the loss
of housing,the discontinuation of treatment,huge expenditures of revenue and even to
the loss of the lives of our loved ones.
Irwin/Platt denigrate the residents of the house and all persons struggling with these
disabilities in using their calls to 911,many of which are due to the confusion that comes.
with the conditions and a familiarity with the police as a source of information and
comfort, as evidence against them. Mr. Ruddell. Your name is everywhere. It is supposed
to stand for integrity in this community. And Doctor Howarth, your title implies ethical
responsibility; shame on you both. It is not in the least funny or clever or ethical to use�
behaviors of people suffering a thought disorder their symptoms as evidence against
them. Can you say that a sneeze is evidence that a cold-sufferer is violent? Should a 90
year old resident of the neighborhood who has lived there 12 years start to hear voices or
wonder where her children are and call 911 about her confusion, seeking only help,
would we use this as evidence of her unsuitability as a neighbor or friend?I think not.
The difference lies in your prejudice alone. May you never, Irwin, Platt, Ruddell or
Howarth know the terrible pain we feel when one of our fellow sufferers is further
wounded by what amounts to pure ignorance and bigotry,
Please re-think your assumptions.

Re: 12 1 St. House
Please accept this letter to the editor as my statement supporting your decision to grant
the conditional use permit. Thank-you.
Whether led by your wallet or your heart of compassion I urge you to read this letter then
attend the Port Angeles Planning Commission meeting at 6 P.M., September 8th at the
City Council Chambers located at 321 E. 5 th Street.
We live in the year 2010 not 1710 or 1910 but 2010 where the end of bigotry is sought
and where culture has assumed the mantle of, at least a tolerance for other's differences.
Judging others by race or creed, color or sexual orientation is slowly becoming
unacceptable and, at points, mandated by law.
One last horrible bigotry remains. It is the persecution and vilification of persons whose
misfortune it was to have come down with a physical condition that society deems
unacceptable; creates of them a pariah: monsters to be hidden from view or exterminated.
Called the mentally ill, they are used by writers for television plots, writers of newspapers
and books to sell their products by using misinformation to frighten us.
These are humans afflicted by a condition that is highlymanageable like diabetes or heart
disease; humans less likely to harm you than your "normal"neighbor; most likely to
harm themselves to stop their terrible pain.
For people suffering from behavioral or thought disorders the days of locked metal
cages over the head, forced lobotomies and straight jackets are only a little behind them.
Culture is changing, oh, so slowly.for our loved ones. Prejudices and bigotries have been
shown the door. Still, there are some who refuse to walk thru that door leading to life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness for ALL.
I have found that most things that bother me about others are based in my own
ignorance. At thi's meeting there will be people who believe that they are somehow better
than others, more deserving of getting what they want than others. They object to the
looks,the mannerisms, the comings and going of a group of good people who arie trying
to regain lives so cruelly snatched from them by a quirk of genetics and chance. This
handful of citizens who wish to makehomeless the residents of 12 1h Street House, are
missing some information. I hope that many of you who read this will be at this meeting
to help educate them and the planning commission about not only the human costs of
denying this petition; the cost to the reputation of this community as a welcoming and
caring place, but the costs financially to this community which will far exceed the cost of
the present situation. They are astronomical and come from your pocket. A disposable
camera,,thrown in the garbage isn't really disposable. It lingers in and affects the
environment. A Human Being is not disposable and if treated as such will linger in
memory and affect the world just as you do through the simple act,of Being..
Statistics reveal that out of four people, one will be touched by these varied neuro-
chemical conditions. Of those who object to the people of 12th Street, some will be
stricken with Parkinson's. The specter of dementia or late-life depression looms over us
all. Isn't our greatest fear in aging that we will have to leave the safety of our homes?
The DSM, Diagnostic and Statistical Manual,the bible of the Mental Health profession,
lists at least 150 separate diagnosis' ranging from shyness to erectile dysfimction to full-
blown schizophrenia. When the 12t" street house is reoccupied will we know if an
alcoholic thief has moved in? an upstanding businessperson who abuses.a spouse or
child?A concerned, community-minded person whose computer is filled with
pornography?No, we will not.
And the people forced out onto the street? Who are they? The rape victim made homeless
by posttraumatic stress who found a safe place to live? The young woman who lost her
.family and home due to post-partum depression?The veteran returning from three tours
in Iraq whose nightmares led him to.substance abuse and attempted suicide and was
saved by the bed you now take from him? Or are they the son or daughter of one of your
friends who,never told you,mistakenly ashamed that a breakdowncost their child their
.University scholarship?
I have heard of people who bought a home directly beneath a flight pathway into a
nearby airport only to gather in righteous indignation to petition the airport to move. I
now know of a group of people who have lived for more than two years in the presence
of their 12 th Street neighbors who suddenly decide that they are undesirables, second-
class citizen who can be put aside as one would shoo away a stray.
These residents are guided by their commitment to recovery and are supported by and
closely supervised in their recovery by Peninsula Mental Health. That agency follows
strict guidelines in the operation of the house mandated by State and Federal law
designed for the safety of the residents and the community. You couldn't have better
neighbors.
PI,ease join us. Even if you want to keep your opinion to yourself, sheer numbers speak
volumes to decision-makers. If you wish, 5 minutes will be given to you to express your
views.
It's your money. It's your fellow human being.

Commissioners,
As a member of the National Alliance on Mental Illness and NAMI Clallarn County I
wish to thanks you for your positive recommendation regarding 12 1h St. House. My
thanks, too, to Betsy Schultz, owner of the Tudor Inn Bed and Breakfast, for her
intelligent support of the permit. Her testimony carries great weight Due to her 26 year
career working with the population residing at 12 1h.St.,her testimony carries great weight.
Questions raised by neighbors about Peninsula Mental Health being remiss in the running
of the group home are shown to be in error by her letter. In it she also makes a point
about the irrefutable fact that the State has laws in place to protect these folks' right to an
inclusive and normal living environment. We thank the commission for considering her
very educational letter.
Please grant a NAMI representative to speak on my behalf.

To the Planning Commission and Joe and Naomi Denhart,
1, and the Alliance on Mental Illness, want to thank you for what we think of as an
enlightened decision.
Naomi and Joe Denhart's awareness that mental wellness is a gift and can be taken
away from anyone at any time is so very poignant. We wish that all who fear our loved
ones might see that they and their families are as susceptible to these disorders as anyone
else. The Denhart's letter clearly illustrates that any neighborhood can be hit by a
tragedy of any type.
I One in four families are affected by the simple fact that the human brain, like the heart,
lungs,kidneys or liver is a bodily organ. Something can go wrong with it. If, in the
future, your grandchild, father or college roommate mate descend into the dark world of
altered thinking and bizarre behaviors, symptoms of a medical condition,NAMI will be
there for you.
In home visits from law enforcement officers during a NAMI sponsored Crisis
Intervention Training, we learned that even those who protect us are not protected from
brain illness and that some of these fathers, wives and siblings knew personally the
terrible nature not only of the condition but the public's hurtful judgment of them.
We hope that our comments today will shift your perceptions toward greater
understanding of the worlds we live in. Every little ste will clear away some of the
�Ip
darkness.

Commissioners,
One Of the most important missions of The Alliance on Mental Illness both Nationally
and Countywide is to educate. We are so pleased at your recommendation. It indicates an
educated decision-making process, -something we greatly appreciate in our elected
officials.
Because we work toward fair treatment and fo*r the rights of our loved ones, we honor the
right of others to their opinions. We thank Sandra Fisher for being open about her
feelings. We hope also that she will realize that this is not a proposed home but a home in
existence for over 10 years. We want to quiet the fears that T.V. and movies put in us by
portraying our kids, spouses onfriends as,nothing but violent people. Nothing could be ,
further from the truth. In later comments you w ill hear that statistically, those with these
conditions are many times more likely to be a victim of a crime than she is.
In her letter.to you we see what we see so often;'that people's certainty about their beliefs
is often grounded in mistaken or second.or third-hand information. Rumors of a resident
pedophile came to her-from a woman she babysat for who. heard it from a friend who
heard it from an employee of Peninsula Mental Health. We would like to share with her
some much more reliable information:
The U.S. Dept. of Justice National Irist.itute of Justice magazine, Research Preview in a
summary of a presentation by John Monahan,PhD, U of Virginia Law School looked at
Mental Illnes's and Violent Crime. You will,recall that this is the University where the
young man suffering from an UNTREATED mental health condition shot and killed so

Commissioners.
Thanks to you for you positive decision regarding 12' St. House's permit. I am a member
of the-National and Clallarn chapters of the Alliance on Mental Illness. In the name of
education I ask to address some of the statements made by Caldwell Banker's Certified
Residential Specialist, Jean Irvine.
Jean, you are a very involved community member. To be well informed is a requirement
and responsibility of any specialist at work in a city.. We who live with mental health
conditions daily, yearly, for a lifetime are also specialists. Together we know w- ell-
researched facts about the many conditions that can hit.the brain and would like you to
know more.
None of us ever thought this thing would enter our lives. If it hits your family you will be
stunned not only by.what happens to the person you love but by the cutting cruelty of the
world's response to them. We have found that the best thing we can do is keep abreast of
news and research that affects the rights and lives of those we serve then act to make
things better.
The Caldwell Banker's websight reflects their attitudes about non-discrimination in
housing. Their website has an entire link devoted to FAIR HOUSING practices.
You state in your letter to the commissioners that you would not have encouraged people
to buy houses if you had known of this group home. That shows you to be- compassionate
for your buyer at the expense of your own income. We hope we can extend your
compassion by asking you to examine more closely why you would not want to
-encourage a sale because of the presence of this group home? What is it that you know
about the individuals who live here that makes it inadvisable to live beside them? Where
did you get your information? Is it the policy of Caldwell Banker to exercise such
discrimination? That the house was operative for 12 out of your 24 years in real estate and
you remained unaware of it doesn't fault the city. Full disclosure is a part of the sales
process is it not? This requires that you know the-house and the surrounding homes as
well, does it not?
If such lack of awareness on your part-exists might it be that your lack of education
regarding the many facets and manifestations of brain disorders may also need updating?
In your mind what is the connection between people with bi-polar disorder or OCD or
post-traumatic stress and them not being allowed to live within 2 blocks of a church or a
school? What fact-based research did you study to make that statement on Company
letterhead? Is it Caldwell Banker Policy.to rout out"undesirables"? Or could these words
have been bom of a your hidden prejudice that,now uncovered, needs rethinking?
You state the public should be made aware of the "type" of residents living at 12t' St.
House. How many of us would stand the insult of a neighborhood committee asking
people who know or know of you, privately and publicly, the type of person YOU are so
they can decide if you deserve or are safe enough to live near their homes or be around
their children or place of worship?Do people with these conditions not attend church like
you do?Are some of them not parents?
Page 2, Caldwell Banker
If the presence of pedophiles in a neighborhoods influences your sales I am surprised
that as a Resident Specialist you have not made yourself fully aware of Washington State
law concerning the very strict disclosure rules concerning them and their living
arrangements.
Jean, as a public businessperson people trust what you tell them. They believe what you,
say. They assume that you operate from ethical underpinnings. When you make a
statement on company letterhead and as a professional of the community that the public
should be "protected" in the context of the mentally ill you are implying that the fact is,
the mentally ill are dangerous and that the public is somehow not safe if they are around.
them. In doing so you are perpetuating a prejudice and stigma that harms and
misinforms.
We all know.that education makes all the difference. NAMI wants to help. If you feel
you and your company and clients could benefit, we can steer you toward information
that will help you make a sale right next,door to 12' St. and have the new buyer look
forward to meeting their neighbors.
Perhaps you can then, having become the rare specialist in this subject,teach other
realtors the true facts about living with or near people who have brain chemistry
anomalies.

Dear Peter:
Thank you for your comments and review of the materials. When I read the Police reports
and thought about the comments that have been made throughout this process regarding
neighborhood concerns, and in speaking with Police personnel, I quickly realized what the
root of some of the issues might be. The multitudes of calls are largely not the type of calls
that emergency responders need to be called to resolve. When Police arrive, it is disruptive
because neighbors don't know that the issues aren't really critical. Better management of
this issue will go along way toward resolving concerns and dealing with more significant
issues if there are any. I was a bit hesitant to suggest, but it seemed the right thing to do.
Glad you agree.
Do have the outreach plan ready for discussion. Although it is not truly a land use matter, it
was part of the analysis. It was a component of the earlier CUP approval that allowed an
opportunity to address concerns before they become issues, and I believe it is a good tool.
Please let me know if you have any other questions by Tuesday afternoon as I won't be at
the hearing. I have a previously planned out of town event to attend. I hoped this
matter would be taken care of in August leaving me free to go without dumping this on
other staff. Nathan will be handling the meeting and I'm sure it will go smoothly what with
the outreach plan and your attention to the matter of process in dealing with emergency call
situations.

RE: Conditional Use Permit- CUP 10-02
APPLICANT: Peninsula Community Mental Health
OWNER: SAME
LOCATION: 203 West Twelfth Street
REQUEST: A supported living arrangement in the RS-7 Residential Single Family
zone
PROPOSAL:
The application is to allow a supported living arrangement in the RS-7 Residential
Single Family zone under Section 17.10.040(R) of the Port Angeles Municipal Code. The home
is intended to be the residence of individuals who are served on a daily basis by employees of the
property owner, Peninsula Community Mental Health(PCMH). PCMH provides housing for
individuals who have been diagnosed with mental illness. PCMH refers to these individuals as
"consumers" and we will,therefore, use that reference in this report as well. Althou h these
9
consumers benefit from structure and need some assistance with community integration and their
activities of daily living, they function in healthy, constructive ways with considerable
independence. With periodic assistance, they manage their finances, take medication on their
own, purchase and prepare the food they eat, wash their own clothes, and clean their living
space. The main goal is to provide a living setting that will allow each resident to strengthen their
self-sufficiency skills so that in time they can transition to more independent housing.
Consumers who will reside in the home are the most independent of those served by PCMH and
it is hoped that the locating of these individuals in single family neighborhoods will solidify their
ability to remain relatively independent of more supervised living situations. An in-house
consumer supervisor (Residence Aide) will oversee the home.
Individual consumers are in a transitional stage between constant supervision and more
independent living. Licensed Peer Support Specialists and Case Aides employed by PCMH
monitor residents 5 - 7 days a week to provide coaching in nutrition, hygiene, time management,
problem solving, budgeting, transportation, health support, and vocational plans. PCMH stated
0 0
Conditional Use Permit-CUP 10-02 Page 2
August 25,20 10
that these consumers do not meet the criteria for higher levels of non-independent living that
requires 24-hour staffing.
NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTERISTICS:
The subject location is situated in the City's Central Planning Area. The site address is
203 West 12th Street. The neighborhood is a well-established, completely built out, traditional
neighborhood comprised of single family homes mainly on individual lots. The area is
commonly referred to as "Cherry Hill" and is an area identified by the Queen of Angels Church
and convent/school located in the neighborhood two blocks immediately north of the subject site.
Jefferson Elementary School is located three blocks east of the site at the comer of 13th and
Lincoln Streets. A well-established bed and breakfast use is located adjacent to the site north of
the 11/12 Alley with other commercial uses north along 8 1h Street and south to Lauridsen
Boulevard. PCMH's main office facility is located four blocks north on 8 1h Street from the
location.
BACKGROUND:
In 1991, PCMH purchased the subject property and applied for a conditional use permit
to operate a group home at the subject location. Conditional Use Permit CUP 91(06)10 was
approved to operate a group home housing adolescent girls who would be supervised 24 hours a
day. Twenty-four hour care was provided because the girls were underage; there was no history
of mental illness. The conditional use permit was issued on June 12, 199 1, by the Planning
Commission. That approval was upheld following an appeal to the City Council in October of
that year. Subsequent reviews allowed extensions to August, 1996. The application process
included a great deal of neighborhood input and outreach.
PCMH decided to discontinue operating a group facility for the teenagers and the
conditional use permit was allowed to lapse in favor of a residence for adult consumers. Staff
was not aware that occupancy of the group home had changed until informed in late 2009 by
concerned neighbors. When questioned about the change in occupancy, PCMH staff indicated
that they believed if the occupants did not exceed 6 unrelated persons, the occupancy would be
considered a family by City definition and did not need a CUP. However, since the consumers
do not live independently (a key component of the definition of a family), the use remains
similar to a group home as defined by the PAMC. PCMH collects a fee dependent on what the
consumer can afford for assistance including rent.
PUBLIC COMMENT:
Public notification was mailed to property owners within 300 feet of the subject site and
posted on the property on July 29, 2010, and August 24, 20 10. Notification was placed in the
Peninsula Daily News on August 24, 2010, with written comment accepted by September 7,
2010. Written comments submitted are attached to this staff report as Attachment C.
DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ANALYSIS:
In a community, individual values often clash and indeed must confront each other. Good
planning identifies and supports the values we share as a community. The City's Comprehensive
Plan identifies residential, land use, and social policies that are intended to guide planning decisions

Conditional Use Permit-CUP 10-02 Page 3
August 25,20 10
that enable diversity while retaining a sense of security and place in individual neighborhoods. The
overall good of the community and its citizens is the primary goal. The goals,policies, and objectives
of the City's Comprehensive Plan are used as the basis for development within the City. The Zoning
Ordinance provides the tools that enable the goals, policies, and objectives of the Comprehensive
Plan to be put into place throughout the community. The City's Comprehensive Plan was reviewed
in its entirety in consideration of this proposal. Citations found to be most appropriate to the subject
proposal are listed in Attachment"B"to this staff report.
Each zone within the City includes a definition of its specific purpose and intent to further the
goals of the City's Comprehensive Plan. Activities that are expected in each zone are listed as well
as conditional uses that have been predetermined to be permitted with conditions to ensure that such
uses do not conflict with the purpose and intent of each zone. Over the years, conditional uses have
been included that ensure consistency with evolving state laws.
The purpose and intent of the RS-7 Residential Single Family zone in which this use is
proposed is as follows: (Section 17.10.010) "... a low density residential zone intended to create
and preserve urban single family residential neighborhoods consisting of predominantly single
family homes on standard townsite-size lots. Uses which are compatible with and functionally
related to a single family residential environment may also be located in this zone. Because of
land use impacts associated with nonresidential uses, few nonresidential uses are allowed in this
zone and then only conditionally..."
A"family" is defined in Section 17.08.03 5 (A) PANIC as "... oneperson or two or more
legally relatedpersons living together, or not more than six unrelatedpersons living together as
a single, nonprofit, housekeeping unit;provided that there shall not be more thanfour unrelated
persons living together with legally relatedpersons as a single, nonprofit, housekeeping unit.
A "conditional use permi " is defined in Section 17.08.020(G) of the Port Angeles
Municipal Code as "... a limitedpermission to locate a particular use at a particular location,
and which limitedpermission is required to modify the controls stipulated by these Regulations
in such degree as to assure that the particular use shall not prove detrimental to surrounding
properties, shall not be in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan, and shall not be contrary to the
public interest" and further states in(H) of the same section that "Conditional Use - a use
permitted in a zone but which requires a special degree of control to make such use consistent
and compatible with other existing or permissible uses in the same zone. "
A.groU home is permitted under Section 17.08.020(G) PANIC as a conditional use in the
RS-7 zone. Group homes are defined as: "... a non-independent, non-family, housekeeping unit in
which the residents are assisted by an outside agency or organization. Some examples ofgroup
homes include state licensed homesfor the handicapped andphysically disabled, homesfor the
mentally ill, homesfor those with developmental disabilities, except that group homes do not
include adultfamily homes, supported living arrangements or residential carefacilities. They
also include state licensed group homesfor residential centersfor rehabilitation ftom alcohol
and drugs, and transitional housingfor victims ofdomestic violence.
The applicant has described a use very similar to the PANIC definition of a group home
cited above. The living arrangement is described as "supported living"by the Department of
Health. In the Washington State Administrative Code (WAC) 388-101-3000, "supported living"
is defined as "instruction, supports, and services provide by service providers to clients living in
homes that are owned, rented, or leased by the client or their legal representative." The City of
Port Angeles Municipal Code does not specifically define "supported living." Since this living
arrangement is nearly identical to the PANIC definition of a group home cited above, Staff

Conditional Use Permit-CUP 10-02 Page 4
August 25,20 10
concludes that it is consistent with the intent of the RS-7 zone. Thus, the home is permitted
pursuant to 17.10.040(R)PAMC, which allows "Other uses compatible with the intent this
chapter" (RS-7 zone) as a conditional uses.
The applicant has proposed that a Resident Aide position be developed whereby a resident
consumer will be responsible for daily management duties with oversight by PCMH
professionals as in-house supervision. The Resident Aide will be under the direct supervision of
a state certified Residential Supervisor working for PCMH. The Resident Aide will reside in the
residence, communicate regularly with residential staff, assist in maintenance of grounds and
encourage compliance with house rules. The Resident Aide will be able to quickly respond to
any issues that may arise in the residence thereby reducing the potential for disruption or
assistance from either the City's emergency services or PCMH counselors. Application
information indicates that consumers who occupy this type of group residence do not need 24-
hour care but would benefit from in house supervision by a Resident Aide.
Staff has spent a great deal of time speaking with neighbors and licensing agencies
regarding the use, its past operation, and future expectations. A meeting was held in preparation
for consideration of the application with Board Members of Peninsula Community Mental
Health to better understand the need and operation of the residence. As a conditionally
permissible activity in the RS-7 zone, it is important to focus on conditions that would ensure
neighborhood outreach, establish operational characteristics, and provide structure for the living
activity. PCMH Director Peter Casey said that PCMH has a policy that screens individuals prior
to placement in this residence based on their level of competence, independence, and criminal
history. Residents who do not meet PCMH screening criteria will not reside in the home.
In researching this type of residence, staff learned that the expectation in supported
housing is to provide an independent living setting with minimal support that will allow each
resident to transition to housing that is independent of the mental health center over time. This
practice has evolved from an effort to deinstitutionalize people with mental illness and is
overseen by the Departments of Health and Social and Health Services. Staff was also informed
by an employee of the Regional Services Network(the PCMH oversight funding management
service) for this area that consumers are largely people who live here and not consumers from
other counties.
STATE ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY ACT (SEPA) REVIEW:
A Determination of NonSignificance was issued for the proposed action on September 8,
2010, per WAC 197-11-355. This action satisfies the City's responsibility under the Washington

FindiLigs:
Based on the information provided in the Community Development Staff Report for CUP
10-02 dated August 25, 2010, including all information in the public record file, comments and
testimony presented during the public hearing, the Planning Commission discussion and
deliberation, and the above listed conditions of approval, the City of Port Angeles Planning
Commission hereby finds that:
1. On July 6, 2010, Peninsula Community Mental Health(PCMH) applied to the City
Department of Community & Economic Development(DCED) for a conditional use permit to
allow a supported living home to be located at 203 West 12'h Street in the City's RS-7
Residential Single Family zone.
2. Group homes and hospices are identified as permitted by conditional use permit in the
RS-7 Residential Single Family zone under Section 17.10.040(l) PAMC. Section 17.10.040(R)
PAMC allows for other uses compatible with the intent of this Chapter as conditional uses. A
supported living home is nearly identical to a group home.
3. A conditional use is defined in Section 17.08.020(H) of the PAMC as "a use permitted
in a zone but which requires a special degree of control to make such use consistent and
compatible with other existing or permissible uses in the same zone.
Conditional Use Permit-CUP 10-02 Page 6
August 25,2010
4. A Group Home is defined in Section 17.08.040(C) of the Port Angeles Municipal Code
as "... a non-independent, non-family, housekeeping unit in which the residents are assisted by
an outside agency or organization. Some examples ofgroup homes include state licensed homes
for the handicapped andphysically disabled, homesfor the mentally ill, homesfor those with
developmental disabilities, except that group homes do not include adultfamily homes,
supported living arrangements or residential carejacilities. They also include state licensed
group homesfor residential centersfor rehabilitation ftom alcohol and drugs, and transitional
housingfor victims of domestic violence. "
5. The living arrangement is described as "supported living" by the Department of Health.
WAC 388-101-3000 defines supported living as "instruction, supports, and services provide by
service providers to clients living in homes that are owned, rented, or leased by the client or
their legal representative."
6. Section 17.10.010 of the Port Angeles Municipal Code describes the RS-7 Residential
Single Family zone as a"...low density residential zone intended to create and preserve urban
single family residential neighborhoods consisting of predominantly single family homes on
standard Townsite sized lots. Uses which are compatible with and functionally related to a
single family residential environment may also be located in this zone." Conditional uses that
may be located in the RS-7 zone include but are not limited to accessory residential units,
assisted living facilities, child day cares, and churches.
7. A conditional use permit is defined in Section 17.08.020(G) of the Port Angeles
Municipal Code as "... a limitedpermission to locate a particular use at a particular location,
and which limitedpermission is required to modify the controls stipulated by these Regulations
in such degree as to assure that the particular use shall not prove detrimental to surrounding
properties, shall not be in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan, and shall not be contrary to the
public interest" andfurther states in (H) of the same section "Conditional Use - a use permitted
in a zone but which requires a special degree of control to make such use consistent and
compatible with other existing or permissible uses in the same zone. "
8. Section 17.96.050 of the Port Angeles Municipal Code provides that "The Planning
Commission shall consider applicationsfor conditional use permitsfor uses specified in the
applicable Chapter of the Zoning Regulations. The Planning Commission may grant said
permits which are consistent and compatible with the purpose of the zone in which the use is
located, are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, and not contrary to the public use and
interest. The Planning Commission may refuse to issue a conditional use permit if the
characteristics of the intended use as related to the specific proposed site are such as would
defeat the purpose of these Zoning Regulations by introducing incompatible, detrimental, or
hazardous conditions. In each application the Planning Commission may impose whatever
restrictions or conditions they consider essential to protect the public health, safety, and we�fare,
and to prevent depreciation of neighboring property.
9. Section 17.96.070(A) PAMC provides "Hearing andAppeal of Conditional or
Unclassified Use Permit Applications. Notice and Rearingfor Conditional or Unclassified Use
Permits. Upon filing an application for a conditional or unclassified use permit in which the
application setsforthfully the groundsfor, and thefacts deemed tojustify, the granting of a
Conditional or Unclassified Use Permit, the Planning Commission shall give public notice, as
Conditional Use Permit-CUP 10-02 Page 7
August 25,20 10
provided in PAMC 17.96 140, of the intention to consider at a public hearing the granting of a
Conditional or Unclassified Use Permit." The Planning Commission's decision is final unless
appealed to the City Council.
10. Conditional Use Permit(CUP 91(6)10)was approved for Peninsula Mental Health to
conduct a group home to house teen age girls at 203 West 12th Street on June 12, 1991. The use
was approved with conditions. The permit expired in August, 1996.
11. The occupancy of 203 W. 12 Ih Street changed to adults in the mid 1990's. City staff was
not informed of the change in occupancy. PCMH staff believed that the City's definition of a
"family," found in Section 17.08.035"F"(A) of the PAMC, permitted the occupancy of up to 6
unrelated adults without a conditional use permit. The use went unreported until November,
2009, when neighbors brought the matter to the City's attention and staff contacted PCMH staff.
12. The site is situated in the City's Central Planning Area that is served by all municipal
emergency services.
13. The neighborhood is a well-established, completely built out, traditional neighborhood
comprised of single family homes mainly on individual lots. The area is commonly referred to
as "Cherry Hill" and is identified by the location of the Queen of Angels Church and
convent/elementary school (two blocks immediately north of the property), St. Matthew's
Lutheran Church and daycare, and Jefferson Elementary School (three blocks east of the site). A
well-established bed and breakfast use is located adjacent to the site north of the 11/12 Alley
with other commercial uses located north along 8th Street and south to Lauridsen Boulevard.
PCMH's main office facility is located four blocks north on 8 th Street from the location. The
City's main fire hall is located seven blocks immediately north of the site.
14. The proposed supported living home is located on a single Townsite lot developed as a
six-bedroom residential structure. The site is completely fenced and provides parking at the rear.
The structure and grounds have been considerably upgraded over the past year such that it blends
in well with surrounding residential uses.
15. Consumers of Peninsula Community Mental Health services who will reside in the home
do not live independently. These residents have been diagnosed with mental illness and are in
need of some assistance in their daily lives that is provided by PCMH. They have either limited
or no contact with their families and few social supports. The residents are able to manage their
finances, take medication on their own,purchase and prepare food, and perform housekeeping
and some residence maintenance activities. PCMH Case Aides and Peer Support Specialists visit
the residence 5 —7 days per week to provide coaching in nutrition, hygiene, time management,
problem solving, budgeting, transportation, health support, and vocational plans.
16. The applicant has proposed a home where a resident consumer will be trained to be a
Residence Aide with responsibility for daily management duties with oversight by PCMH
professionals as an in house level of supervision. The Resident Aide will be under the direct
supervision of a state-certified Residential Supervisor. The Resident Aide will communicate
regularly with residential staff, assist in maintenance of grounds and encourage compliance with
house rules. Application information indicates that consumers who occupy this type of group
residence do not need 24-hour care but would benefit from in-house supervision.
Conditional Use Permit-CUP 10-02 Page 8
August 25,20 10
17. PCMH Director Peter Casey indicated that residents will be screened to ensure that at-
risk individuals will not be placed in the residence. PCMH has a policy to screen residents for
placement within a residential zone given a number of factors including safety and well-being
and criminal history. Consumers who do not meet the criteria will not be placed in the residence.
Mr. Casey acknowledged that an unfortunate resident placement went unnoticed for many years
but when this information was made known to staff, the individual was immediately removed
from the residence to a more appropriate location.
18. Although unlicensed for the past 12 years, the home use has been in place and operated
by PCMH with little incident for a total of 18 years at the subject location. Mr. Casey and
PCMH staff have been working with City staff to bring the use into compliance with local
zoning laws and to conduct an outreach program to the neighborhood that will be a forum to
identify and address any issues that may arise from the occupancy in the future.
19. Neighbors to the home contacted City staff in November, 2009, to discuss occupancy
concerns following a meeting with PCMH staff in October. Neighbors expressed a desire to
initiate a neighborhood outreach and education program similar to the condition that was
attached to Conditional Use Permit CUP 91(06)10. PCMH Director Casey is aware of the
advantages of such a program and agreed to initiate same. The previous conditional use permit
required monitoring during extension review of the CUP.
20. The Federal Fair Housing Act (FFHA)requires that licensing requirements shall not
violate the rights of individuals to reasonable accommodations in zoning practices. Conditional
use permits may not discriminate against the handicapped but shall protect their safety as well as
the safety of the community in general.
21. The City of Port Angeles allows for group home use by conditional use permit in all
residential zones. Such review is intended to identify emergency service needs and identify
particular characteristics of individual neighborhoods.
22. Peninsula Community Mental Health operates under oversight by the Departments of
Health(DOH) and Social and Health Services (DSHS).
23. The Federal Housing Authority Act (FHAA) has limited some municipal zoning
authority in an effort to avoid stereotyping to achieve community integration. The common
policy per FHAA is to require group homes to be distributed throughout the community where
residents are able to live in mainstream residential neighborhoods rather than in a cluster of
group homes segregated from the rest of the community. Local zoning regulations maintain
some authority over locational siting but regulations must be administered similarly to any such
group occupancy.
24. The Port Angeles Comprehensive Plan was reviewed it in its entirety in analysis of this
application. The goals, policies, and objectives listed in Attachment B to this staff report were
found to be the most applicable to the proposed use.
25. Public notification was mailed to property owners within 300 feet of the subject site and
posted on the property on July 29, 2010, and August 24, 2010. Notification was placed in the
Peninsula Daily News on August 24, 2010, with written comment accepted by September 7,
20 10. Comments provided by neighbors with regard to the use during the written public
comment period are attached as Attachment"C"to this staff report. Written comment provided
Conditional Use Permit-CUP 10-02 Page 9
August 25,20 10
after the close of the written comment period were presented at the public hearing to be included
in the record. Those written comments were provided by Arlene Engel, Linda Gorden, Randy
Bailey, Rosie von Engel, Kay Snowbrook, Janice Reid, and Betty Brooks.
26. A Determination of NonSignificance was issued for the proposed action on September 8,
2010,per WAC 197-11-3 55. This action satisfies the City's responsibility under the Washington
State Environmental Policy Act(SEPA).
Conclusions:
Based on the information provided in the Department of Community Development Staff
Report for CUP 10-02 dated August 25, 2010, including all of the information in the public
record file, comments, and testimony presented during the public hearing, the Planning
Commission's discussion and deliberation, and the above listed conditions of approval and listed
findings, the City of Port Angeles Planning Commission hereby concludes that:
A. The use as proposed mirrors the definition of a group home as defined in Section
17.08.040(C) of the Port Angeles Municipal Code and is permissible by conditional use permit in
the RS-7 Residential Single Family zone under Section 17.10.040(R) PAMC. Group homes and
supported living arrangements ensure that special needs individuals are afforded reasonable
accommodation in their residential living situations and are not clustered in institutional
environments when such individuals are prepared to live more independently. This practice
empowers such individuals to live as capably as possible with responsible supervision.
B. The conditional use permit was processed per Section 17.96.050 of the Port Angeles
Municipal Code with conditions attached to protect the public health, safety, and welfare, and to
prevent depreciation of neighboring property.
C. An outreach program will enable the neighborhood an opportunity to participate in the
success of the home through familiarity with the residents and knowledge of the procedures of
the home. The program will provide an opportunity to communicate before concerns become
issues and will ensure the safety and well-being of residents and the neighborhood.
D. Registration of group homes and supported living arrangements protects residents and
identifies their homes for responders during emergency and general aid calls. Review of the
location of group homes and supported living arrangements ensures that the uses will integrate
well into residential neighborhoods while providing reasonable accommodation to all groups of
people.
E. As conditioned, the residence will be maintained in an updated manner consistent with
other neighborhood properties and will therefore ensure the retention of neighborhood property
values in the single family neighborhood in which the site is located.
F. The Residence Aide will be able to quickly respond to any issues that may arise in the
residence thereby reducing the need for outside assistance from either the City's emergency
services or PCMH employees. Property maintenance skills will benefit group residents and
enhance the neighborhood value as a whole. The group home will be supported by PCMH
professionals on a daily basis ensuring that the special needs population will be supported.
G. As conditioned, the residence will be operated in accordance with the plan and policy of
the PCMH.

ATTACHMENT B
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN GOALS,POLICIES,AND OBJECTIVES

Hi Sue,
Thanks very much for all your work and support on the 12th St. house CUP. The report is impressive! I
feel hopeful that it will be well-received by the Planning Commission and public. I also conducted a
review of the police response to the 12th St. house and neighbor and came to same conclusion as you did.
The Resident Aide will be provided a cell phone to have quick staff response to any problems. Also,
consumer residents will be educated to consult with staff about housing or neighborhood concerns, unless
there is an emergency situation, before contacting police in the future.
I will be prepared to present an outreach plan at the hearing, if needed.
Peter

Dear Peter:
The staff reports for the Planning Commission hearing have been mailed but they likely won't
get to you before Tuesday unless you are in on the weekend, what with the holiday. So, I
wanted to send the staff report to you in advance. The hard copy is more detailed in that it
contains copies of all of the written comments as well as Police reports that were submitted as
comment.
When I read the Police reports it occurred to me that 99% of the reports were for what I
would describe as more frivolous calls - i.e.,things that could likely have been dealt with by
an in house supervisor or other PCMH staff rather than the City's emergency responders. This
may be a key point in assuaging neighborhood concerns about Police calls. I can see how it
could appear that activities may be occurring that need the Police when it is likely a less needy
case that could be handled less obviously? Just a thought. Perhaps your consumers could be
calling your counselors rather than the Police?
Please let me know if you have any thoughts on the report that we need to discuss before the
meeting.

Re: Peninsula Mental Health Housing 203 W 12 th Street
From: Barbara McFall
th
I was born and raised in Port Angeles in the neighborhood of 203 W. 12 . In
fact, I lived right across the alley in the Tudor Inn. I remember the Fryer family
living in that house and later another large family, the Hopsons, living in that
house. The neighborhood, then as now, was filled with a number of families and
retirees. An R7 zoning results in solid, residential neighborhoods where kids run
rampant, neighbors talk across the fence and most everybody is acquainted with
each other. They are neighborhoods in which people feel safe in raising their
families and inviting their friends to visit.
I am also a law enforcement officer and have been for the past 11 years. I am
well acquainted with the issues of mental illness and substance abuse. They are
some of the hardest people to deal with due to the double whammy of drugs and
severe mental health issues. Until recently many drug treatment facilities would
not take patients with mental health issues and vice versa. This results in many
of them being left at large in the community, either untreated or being treated on
an outpatient basis with agencies such as Peninsula Mental Health.
Peninsula Mental Health actually has a number of housing units scattered
throughout Port Angeles in addition to the one at 203 W. 12 th St. What makes
203 W 12 th Street stand out is the dual diagnosis status and the severity of the
challenges faces by its clients who stay there. The only other PMH residence I
know of with clients that severely challenged is 2nd Street House, which is staffed
24 — 7 with at least one on-site trained staff member.
The combination of substance abuse and mental illness make these subjects
extremely unpredictable and often volatile. Many drugs may leave users
paranoid, delusional, and/or psychotic with long periods of insomnia and
restlessness. These are difficult people to deal with during the best of times.
203 W 12 th Street is a house full of such subjects living unsupervised in a
residential neighborhood with two schools and two churches within three blocks.
It is a matter of public record that the Port Angeles Police Department has been
frequently called to this house or to disturbances involving subjects from this
%
house. Many substance abusers also have significant criminal history. What
kind of background checks have been done on these subjects? What is being
done to weed out the predators, those prone to violence, and those with serious
felony criminal history?
One obvious characteristic of the dual diagnosis is lack of judgment or lack of
consistent good judgment. One of the proposed solutions to the issue was for
Peninsula Mental Health to rent to just one such subject and expect him to deal
with the other five or so "roommates" Peninsula Mental Health will bring to him;
This solution is beyond ludicrous. The house does not function well now. How
could you place that pressure and responsibility on a dual diagnosed subject and
expect him to successfully navigate the issues PMH could not?
I am sure one of the reasons Peninsula Mental Health purchased the house in
the first place is no landlord in his right mind is going to take on not one, but five
or six such high risk renters. They are in that house and receiving treatment for a
reason, chiefly that they have difficulty living independently and have few other
housing options. They need treatment and closely monitored supervision.
If the house is rented to one subject who sublets to others and is no longer under
the auspices Peninsula Mental Health it would stand to reason that each of those
renters is now under the protection of the Landlord Tenant Act which does not
apply to group housing like PMH houses. Then presumably, PMH would no
longer have the ability to easily remove an uncooperative subject or one who is
not paying his rent etc. PMH would not longer have the housing issue to use as
leverage to motivate subjects to take their medication, obey house rules, etc.
I believe the City of Port Angeles and Peninsula Mental Health must face up to
the seriousness of the issues involving 203 W 12 th Street. This is not a question
of"Not in my backyard". This is a question of not in any residential backyard until
the dwelling has constant on-site supervision as well as safety procedures in
place; procedures that would not allow a convicted sex offender who also
happens to have a drug abuse problem and a concurrent mental health diagnosis
to reside there.
Peninsula Mental Health and the City of Port Angeles need to be transparent in
their handling of this issue. Almost from the beginning Peninsula Mental Health
has hidden behind the lies of omission, moving far beyond the original stated
purpose for the home without acknowledgment to the City or the neighborhood.
When Betsy Schultz of the Tudor Inn sought to increase her business by hosting
tea parties the city refused her a permit without significant remodeling of her
kitchen as this was too far removed from the activities of a Bed and Breakfast.
The zoning and enforcement process should be applied fairly to all. At least the
Tudor Inn paid taxes and generated revenue for the community. As a tax exempt
agency, Peninsula Mental Health does not pay taxes for that house. Up until
% Me
very recently they made very little attempt to maintain the house or yard, leaving
it to disintegrate into a shabby, unkempt eyesore.
Peninsula Mental Health is not following through on its original, stated use for the
residence at 203 W 12 th Street. They have allowed their original permit to lapse
rather than bring its altered use under public scrutiny. They are not
communicating in good faith, they are not addressing their responsibility to the
clients they serve at 203 W 12 th Street or the neighbors residing in that
neighborhood. They have proved they do not place a high value on honesty,
open communication, or being a part of the neighborhood which they impact on a
daily basis. I am asking that their request for a new permit be denied.
Sincerely,
Barb McFall

The following are comments and concerns that we would like to see addressed regarding the
Notice of Application for a Conditional Use Permit at 203 West 12 th street:
We know that this facility has been in operation as some type of group home since 1991. We
weren't made aware that the use had changed from an Adolescent Transition House for girls to a
Group Home facility for men.
We would request that the residents would be closely monitored by the Peninsula Community
Mental Health Department either by providing "live-in" counselors or a Counselor Aide.
We would also insist that these residents are NOT registered sex offenders, because of the
location of Queen of Angels School and the children that live in the nearby homes.
While we do appreciate that recent"face-lift"that was given to the house, i.e. New fencing, new
paint, and trimming of the trees in front, we would hope that this maintenance and upkeep
continues... the home was in a state of disrepair for a long period of time.
We live five houses East of the group home and we have not noticed any nuisances or
disruptions coming from the residents of the home. However, other neighbors have been
concerned about police incidents that have occurred at the home.
It is our recommendation that the Planning Commission grant the Conditional Use Permit for a
six month to one-year period. At the end of that time period, re-evaluate and see if it is
something that should be continued in this neighborhood.

Dear Sue,
In regards to the conditional use permit for the property located at 203 W. 12 th St.
property .1 would like to state my opinion . Over the years I have sold many houses in
Cherry Hill which is a most desirable area. I had no idea that this home was a group
home run by Peninsula Mental Health. For a long time the group home was in fair
condition but over the years has had a lot of deferred maintenance. I probably would not
encourage people to purchase these homes, had I known that this was a group home. At
the least let them know about it and let them make that decision.
I do not feel that these homes should be in a residential area especially one just a block
from a school and church and two blocks from another school.. I think that we should
have disclosure if a group home is placed in a Residential Zone and should know what
type of residents reside there and what crimes they may have committed especially if they
are pedophiles or registered sex offenders.
I would doubt that the City of Port Angeles has ever monitored any of these conditional
use permits to see if they are being used in the way they were intended . It's one thing to
grant a permit but another to see that the neighborhood is maintained as it should be in
residential zones. These homes need to be closely monitored, especially ones with more
serious mental issues. Where is the city-in terms of monitoring the conditioned use and
why is the C.U.P. allowed to be expired for over 13 years?
I look forward to the public hearing in regards to this issue and hopefully,the city will
have some new guidelines that will protect the general public that live in residential
z Pt That is what we have zoning laws, for to protect and maintain,the continuity of
o- - -
,ighborhoods.

RE: Conditional Use Permit'#10-08
Peninsula Community Mental Health/203 W. 12" Street, Port,Angeles
Memorandum In Opposition to Conditional Use Permit
A. Introduction
The issue before this Commission-is not whether Peninsula Community Mental Health (herein.
"PCMH") has the right to own and run a facility at 203 W. 12th Street where people with-menta'l
health issues reside. It can.. The only issue'is what conditions doesthe Port Angeles City Code put
on PCMH in order to own and run such a home.
It is the position of,my client's,Howard Ruddell and Dr. Stephen Howarth,that City Code and state
1h
law require the facility at 203 W. 12 Street to be properly licensed with the Department of Health,
and abide by the staffing requirements of such licensing in order to receive approval of the now
rm'it. Without'the proper licensing or confirmation from the Department
pending Conditional Use Pe
of Health that no additional licensing is required, the permit must be denied.
B. Brief Facts
In the late 1990's,PCMH opened 203 W. 12'h Street as a troubled teen girl group home. At that time,
PCMH petitioned and received a Conditional Use Permit from the City of Port Angeles for the.group
home. The records on file-show that the teen's living at the location at that time were troubled and
in need of life skills training, but were otherwise not dependant on PCMH for other services, care
or medical care.
August 18;2010
Planning Commission
Page - 2
In the past decade, the house has transitioned into a facility for the mentally ill. Unlike the young
women who lived at the house in the past, many of the residents at thehome require significantly
more care and are not,otherwise able to live independently from the institution. Over the past-two
years, this house alone caused twenty (20) incident reports with the Port Angeles City Police
Department.- These reports range from calls from residents of the home to 911 asking what day it
was, asking how to restore gun rights, reports of being attacked by "spirits" to a full and violent
breakdown of one.ofthe residents (copies of all reports are attached).
Despite promises to work with the neighbors and that the facility has no additional impact on public
services, PCMH allowed a high risk sex offender to reside on the property-and in the past three
month's residents persist in making 911 calls to d,eal with issues that a properly staffed facility would,
avoid* In the past three mo'riths, 911 has received a Icall from a resident indicating he is hearing ,
voices. Another resident stated he has not§een his childrenin months. Children he does notknow
the names of and likely do not exist.
C. Legal Brief
1. Licensing Must Be Required
Any recommendation for approval of the Conditional Use Permit will be based on the mistaken
belief that the 203 W. 12"house is currently,being used as a"Group Home"instead'of an unlicensed
"Adult Family Home." Given the experiences of the neighbors to the home, the number and kind
of incidence reports to,the Police Departm-efit and the level 'of care required of the residents at the
facility,the facility is an "Adult Family Home." The residents of the faculty and the neighbors,to
the facility,deserve the care,protection and peace of mind that comes with a properly licensed and
staffed facility. It is for this reason that the Commission should deny the Conditional Use Permit
until proper licensing is attained or provided to staff or,at very least,condition the permit on proper
licencing or confirmation from the Department of Health that no additional licencing is required.
2. "Adult Family Home" v. Groa Home
Under Chapter 17.10, RS-7 RESIDENTIAL, SINGLE FAMILY,-.there are two potential
defined uses under which a facility for the'residence of individuals with metal health issues can be
approved by the City. Adult Family-Homes are listed as, an outright permitted use, and Group
Homes are listed as a conditional use. See Port Angeles City Code§§I 7.10.020(A)and 17.10.040(l).
"Adult Family Homes"are defined in Port Angeles City Code §17.08.010 Q as:
C. Adult Family Home — a one-family dwelling of a perslo.n,or persons Who are
providing personal care, room and board to more than(1) but not more,than six(6)
adults who,are not related by blood or marriage to the person or persons providing
the services and who are licensed by the State of Washington pursuant to Chapter
August 18, 2010
Planning Commission,
Page - 3
18.48 and Chapter 70.128 (Adult Family-Home regulations).'
This definition is directly in keeping with the State Legislature's definition of an Adult Family Home
-which means:
a residential-home in Which a person or persons provide personal care, special.care,
room and board to more than'one but not more than six adults who are not related by
blood or marriage to the person or persons providing the se
rvice.
RCW 70.128.01 0(l). Under both definitions, the key point is that the facility is,being used not
simply as a residence, but,"personal care" or"special care" is being,provided to those who live at
the facility.
-h'is a:
This is apposed to a"Group Home,"whic.
non-independent,non-family,housekeeping unity in which the residents are assi'ste&
by an outside agency,or organization.
Code §17.08.040( Q. This definition notes a more directly residential use without,the additional
care provided in an Adult Family Home. The distinction between an-Adult Family Home and a
Group Home-is the level of care that is or should be provided to the residents of the particular
facility.
3. The Residents of the Facilijy Need Personal and Special Care.
The one inescapable fact that PQMH cannof deny is that each of the individuals living at the
facility-at 2.03 W. 1-2 Ih,are.under the direct medical supervision of PCMH because of their mental -
health conditions and that living at the facility is apart of each of the individual's ongoing treatment.
This is in fact "personal care-and special care." This fact alone re fficives the facility from the
definition of a"Group Home'.' and places it within the*definition.of an"Adult Family Home."
Without a full explanation ofthe specific kind and nature ofthe services that PCMH provides
the residents of the facility, this Commission cannot make a proper determination as to what
particular use the facility is being put. While such an investigation must be requested of Ci ty staff
This provision of,the Code is easily mistaken to mean that the care provided must live with
those receiving the care since given-the language, "one family dwelling of a person." Please note that
such a reading completely ignores the definitions of a"Dwelling"under Code'-§17.08.03 O(H)which only
notes that a dwelling refers,to the nature of the building being residential, not that a person is in fact
living at the dwelling. The mistake also ignores the definition of a.�'Person,"which includes any"firm,
partnership,association,-corporation, company or other legal entity, private-or public,Whether for profit.,
or not for profit."Code §17.08.085(B). Since the building is a"dwelling"of PCMH,a"person,"there is
no requirement under the Code that a car giver live at the location for it to be an Adult Family Home.
August 18, 2010
Planning Commission
Page -4,
if not already done at the time of hearing, the picture presented by the,Police Incident Reports
attached hereto,and the other comments of record,'show a significant need for special and personal
care in order to protect and care for the residents of the facility and the-surrounding neighborhood.
Please review the letters before the Commission and the Police Incident Reports with care.
The Lack of a License Alone Does Not Make The Facilily a"'Group Home."
The Port Angeles City Code is keenly written in order to protect and balance two vital public
interests: safety and fair housing. To thisend, all Conditional Use Permitsmay be conditioned to
protect the public health,safety,and welfare,and to prevent deprec-iatioh of neighboring property."
Code § 17.96.050(B). Such considerations are blunted as to prevent discrimination by direct
recreance to the Federal Fair Housing Act in the' same section oftheCode.
This same balance is preserved in the al1loWed and conditional uses of RS-7 Residential,
Single Family, properties. Adult Family Homes are allowed outri ' in RS-7 zoning without the
ght
need of a,Conditional Use Permit. The residents of such homes are free from discrimination, able
to live in tight knit communitie's and are afforded the ability-to enjoy the benefit of a,true
neighborhood. Since the facility is licensed with,the Department of Health or the Department of
'So,cial and Health Services,the residents are receiving the care required them by the state subject'to
license.re.views.and a proces's if complaints should arise., ThbIrest ofthe neighborhood is kept
reasonably safe in the knowledge and fact that the facility meets state requirements and there is a'
process to resolve problems should they arise. No Conditional Use Permit is required for an Adult
Family Nome since the two public interests stated above are satisfied.
A "Group Home" is' a conditional use so that the City can confirm that the dare needed to
protect all the parties involved is either in place or taking placeand put such restrictions on the use
as may be needed to reduce the impact on the public. Lower risk to all means lower oversight-is
necessary. All thus balanced.
PCMH cannot,however,place a facility within a RS-7 neighborhood that ha's the risks and
requirements of an Adult Family Home and claim that the facility is only a Group Home because it
refuses to properly license or staff the facility. To allow this to happen,the Commission would fail
in its duty to balance safety and housing access. The public risk would be allowed without the.
intended oversight.
The review for thisCommission should not thus focus exclusively on if the property is
licenced, but rather if it should be'licenced as an"Adult Family Home."
5. Reacquiring Proper Licensing is Not Discrimination.
I To state once again,my clients' position is not that a facility for persons with mental health
issues must not be allowed at 203 'W., 12 1h Street. Their position is that the'facility can only be.
allowedunder Port Angeles City Code if it is properly monitored and-staffed. It is for this reason
August 18, 2010
Planning Commission
Page' - 5
that my clients' request this Commission to deny the Conditional Use Permit until the �acility is
properly licensed with the Washington State Department of Health,-or the Department of Health
confirms that the facility,does not require licensing.
Any, claim that this request is discriminatory is a "'red herring," and is likely reverse
discrimination. The,City, and this Commission, regularly approves Conditional Use Permits with
the requirement that the use is conditioned upon proper licensing with state or federal authorities.
That the'use at issue before this Commission happens to be a residence for persons with metal illness
is beside the point. The point is, where there is a state regulatory system that protects all par-ties, it
is this Commission's responsibility to condition any permit on current and continued compliance
with,that system. Treating the neighbors to th'is,facility differently fromany other neighbors of any
other applicant's facility, simply because this applicant is housing the mentally ill, is a painful
distortion of logic and the law. Proof of state administrative compliance protects the public, the
residents of the facility,,and.the Commission's review process.
A review is prudent and would protect all parties. My clie,nts do not believe it wis�e to.simply
rely upon the assurance of PCMH when placed a sexual predator at the facility without any notice
to the neighbors,and only now produces a screening process for residence at the facility under threat
of this hearing. Absent assurances from the,Washington State Department of Health of compliance,,
PCMH's applications should be denied.
D. Conclusion
Based on the above,my clients,-Mr.Ruddell drid.Dr. Howarth pray this Commission deny PCMH's
Conditional Use Permit until proper proof of licensing compliance can be produced. In the
alternative�my clients request the permit be conditioned on proof of proper licensing and a review
,be set for PCMH to show proper compliance.
Sincerely,
PL IR F

Dear Peter:
Would you please review these draft conditions per our phone conversation to determine if
they are as you remember discussing. And, did you say the Resident Aide will work under
the supervision of the Peer Counselor? or Case Aides? The Resident Aide will work
under the supervision of the Residential Supervisor, Dawn Saiz,who holds an MSW
(Master's in Social Work) and is a state certified Affliated Counselor. (An Affiliated
Counselor is a new designation for BA and MA/MSW staff who are not yet
independently licensed under their discipline, but who meet the state certified
regulatory requirements to provide Mental Health services within a state licensed
Mental Health agency.) Also working under the supervision of the Resdiential
Supervisor are Residential Counselors,who are not licensed or certified. Are Case
Aides licensed? We have Case Managers, not Case Aides. Our Case Managers either
have BA,s in social sciences or MA's in Mental Health Counseling. They all are
certified by the state as certified Affliliated Counselors. Am I mistaken that the Resident
Aide will report to the Case Aide? The Resident Aide reports to the Residentail
Supervisor. Peer Counselor? The Peer Support Specialist works under and reports to
the Community Support Services Supervisor, Becky Brown,who has an MA in Mnetal
Health Counseloring, and is a state certifed Affliated County. The Peer Support
Specialist is also a state certified Affiliated Counselor.
Conditions:
I. PCMH will screen consumers to ensure that people who have been convicted of
crimes that would pose a physical threat to residents of the neighborhood (what should we
say here to make clear what is meant? I would suggest that we say that PCMHC has
dveloped a policy (which we will provide at the hearing) to carefully screen clients for
safety and well being to live in a residential family zone, particularly with regards to
either a conviction or pending charges for a crime of violence. Is there a particular
wording that is acceptable to describe people in this protected class that will not be placed
in this home)?
2. A neighborhood outreach plan shall be developed that will enable neighbors to be

Page 2 of 2
aware of the program goals and provide a forum where issues of concern will be addressed
by PCMH in operation of the group home use. Quarterly reports will be provided to the
City's Department of Community & Economic Development that will become part of the
public record file for review by the public that will identify results of the outreach program
and will identify how concerns have been addressed. PCMH will address neighborhood
concerns as they are made aware of specific concerns. PCMHC has met with 12 St.
house neighbors in 11/09 and agreed to have periodic meetingi with them so that
concerns or issues can be addressed. Having to submit quarterly reports to the C & E
Dept. feels a bit much. I would prefer only having to submit a report for public record
review and file if that is required of others who have conditional use permits. Perhaps
we can provide you with a summary of our meetings with neighbors,when we have
them,without having to formalize the process.
3. The renovated residence will continue to be maintained in the current manner such
that it complements other residences in the neighborhood. The off street parking area at the
rear of the residence will remain available for residents and visitors. This statement is
fine, as is.
I appreciate your in advance review.

Sue Roberds - preparation of conditional use permit for 203 W 12th St
From: STEPHEN HOWARTH
Date: 8/16/2010 10:30 AM
Subject: preparation of conditional use permit for 203 W 12th St
Sue,
You asked me for input regarding your preparation of the conditional use permit for the 203 W 12th St
property.
First I wish to reiterate some housekeeping matters regarding the permit process and the public hearing that is to
come.
I asked if you would be present at the public hearing and you indicated to me that you would be. I hope you will
describe the conditional use permit to the public at the beginning of the meeting and include the following:
1. Purpose for the conditional use permit.
2. Duration of the permit and renewal period. Also prior to each renewal period, will members of the
neighborhood have the opportunity to weigh in on whether or not it should be renewed?.
3. Criteria for renewal. Will the City check with the police department concerning activity at the house during the
preceding period?
Will inspection of the property be done by the City regarding compliance??
4. Under the conditional use permit, will the fire chief inspect the property for any safety issues??
5. ORIGINAL CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
a. Stipulated that the house was to be "maintained in a manner such that it would blend into the rest fo the
neighborhood"
(The property was let go for years and fell into terrible disrepair. I am sure that the neighborhood does not
want a repeat of that)
Will they mow the lawn and paint the house, clean the fences as needed....etc??
b. Permit limited how many automobiles would be on the property.
c. Original permit dealt with conduct of residents as it pertained to the atmosphere in the neighborhood. Will
there be laguage in the conditional use permit that addresses acceptable behavior.
NOTEH! This was the crux of the original meeting that we had with PMHC last October and is of vital
importance to the neighborhood.
d. Other issues surrounding the original permit that are of interest to R-7 zones throughout the City
6. 1 believe that in relation to 5.c above PMHC should AT LEAST disclose to the public and members of the
neighborhood whether or not they intend to house residents that have been convicted of a crime at the 203 W
12th St property and CERTAINLY if members on PROBATION, having been convicted of a crime in Clallarn County
or some other County in the State of Washington or even from outside the State of Washington are living there.
Such crimes might include: narcotic use or sale, sexual offenders, crimes of violence, grand larceny.......any other
felony conviction.
** I view this as a PUBLIC SAFETY issue whether or not PMHC and the City want to call it as such. If this
property with it's defined "Conditional Use" as defined by the City itself were not next to 2 schools, an active
church, a potential tourist attraction for the City and residents of a neighborhood that moved to that
neighborhood assuming that the R-7 zone ordinance actually means something....then it might be judged
otherwise.
The presumption must start for the logical conclusion that simply owning a property in a zone that has been
fi1e:HC:\Documents and Settings\sroberds\Local Setfings\Temp\XPgrpwise\4C69133 rQ�811612010
0 0 Page 2 of 2
designated by the City for a specific purpose, does not give ANY resident the unilateral right to define how they
will use that property. I cannot be certain of the following statement, but I would have to believe that across
America in every neighborhood such as ours, that with almost 100% certainty, public safety would always trump
political correctness. Whatever politics are involved in this case Sue, I believe that the City would be well
served to address this issue head on. Otherwise, I predict huge liability issues for them in the future.
7. With regard to 6. above. The conditional use permit must be ratified by the City Council and members of the
Board of Directors of PMHC. These individuals through their vote will assume responsibility for their vote
(politically and legally) I hope that these illustrious individuals, who will sit and pass judgment upon what should
occur in someone else's neighborhood will pause and weigh their decisions as if they lived in OUR neighborhood.
8. Issues of trust have arisen between members of the neighborhood and PMHC and some people feel that there
have even been out an out lies circulated by administrative officials of PMHC to the City and the neighborhood. In
October of 2009, PMHC indicated that they had someone coming to the house daily. After the meeting, they
indicated that an additional visit would be made at night to regulate adverse activity that had disrupted the Tudor
Inn and other residents of the neighborhood in the late evening and night-time hours. Nobody has seen anyone
coming to the property for this purpose. If the City wants to address disruptive behavior and repeated visits by
the police force to the 203 W 12th St property, then they should require 2 things in the conditional use permit.
a. Whoever comes to the property must be qualified to deal with mentally ill people.
b. Whoever comes to the property must detail their visit, the reason for the visit and any corrective action that
was taken.This can be accomplished with a visitation log kept daily or by using a time clock to document their
time and clinical logs to detail what they observed.
c. History speaks for itself Sue. The property itself suffered neglect and adverse activity at the house reflected
clinical neglect as well.(in my opinion)
d. With regard to 8 (this issue). If the stated purpose in the application for the conditional use permit by PMHC
for the 203 W 12th Stproperty is.......REHABILITATION......then how could either you (the City) of PMHC object to
requiring this documentation as part ofthe permit process??
9. 1 believe that this is a precedent setting issue and will ultimately determine the destiny of R-7 zones
throughout the City. Choose your words wisely in your final preparation of the conditional use permit Sue.

Sue,
I forgot to ask you whether or not AFrER the final conditional use permit has been prepared, but PRIOR to the
public meeting......if an environmental impact study is required. I ask this because the initial conditional use
permit was never renewed, the City lost track of the residential variance requiring the need for the conditional
use permit and a NEW use has been requested for the said property located at 203 W 12th St by the PMHC. It
seems to me that a NEW use would require a NEW assessment of the impact of that use on the
community...................Would you agree??

RE: Group Home Conditional Use Permit Application
Peninsula Community Mental Health (PCMH)
Atten: Sue Roberds
To Whom It May Concern:
This letter serves as my written support for the approval of the Conditional Use Permit Application
for the Group Home located in RS-7 Residential Single Family Home zone, 203 West le Street.
This residence is due south of my property at 1108 South Oak Street,Port Angeles.
My 26 years of service on behalf of individuals with Developmental and Mental Health challenges
included the responsibility of licensing,training staff, developing curriculum and monitoring the
many Small Family and Group Homes located throughout California. Communities as a whole are
not only ethically but legally required to be as inclusive and least restrictive as possible in providing
living,working,educational and recreational opportunities and assistance to individuals in our
social service delivery systems that are similar in nature to those environments we all wish to
participate. I believe that is the directive here in Washington as well.
I became aware of the Group Home under consideration when I completed my due diligence in
preparation for purchasing my current residence/business and moving here on July 30, 2010.
During these past years I have interacted with the residents living in the home occasionally as I
have with other neighbors. Several times I spoke with the residents about the loudness of music,
working on a car, or loud conversations that occurred between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m.when a guest had
shared that they were unable to sleep. The resident responded by lowering their volume or
stopping the loud activity. On occasion they needed additional reminders but were more than
willing to quiet their activity. I have done no less with another neighbor whose dog would bark
incessantly in the late evening and early morning. I went and spoke with them. I would expect the
same courtesy if my home/business was causing concern from a neighbor.
Last October 2009 there was an individual residing at the home with a syndrome that often
manifested in loud, cursing, an'd verbal discourse. Due to the nature of this individual's disability,
the verbal context and volume is often unmanageable with prompts. I did call PCMH for the first
time since moving here to speak with Peter Casey,Executive Director to discuss the situation. At
about the same time, several of the boundary neighbors had shared concerns they had regarding
another resident and the appropriateness of his living in the home. There was also discussed the
facility and grounds maintenance concerns. The main concern of mine was supervisory in nature
and I was
Page Two 0
Conditional Use Permit for 203 W. 12th Street, Port Angeles.)WA
seeking information on what services were provided during the later evening and early Morning
hours for residents in the home. Rather than these round-robin conversations amongst the
neighbors I suggested a meeting with Peter Casey and his staff to discuss and work out some
resolutions that would be amenable to all concerned. My intent was never to suggest the home be
closed, nor purchased by a group of homeowners or that the residents were not welcome as my
neighbors. A meeting was scheduled immediately.
The meeting was held and following that evening, plans were set in motion to provide staff as
needed during late evening and early morning hours, the plans to trim up the yard and begin major
renovations and restoration to the home were begun. It looks beautiful! The two residents were
assisted in locating alternate living arrangements. During these times when funding and options
are often limited I believe Peninsula Community Mental Health under the guidance of Peter Casey
acted promptly,with respect for the individuals living in the home as well as the bordering
neighbors. I would hope that should a member in my family ever need similar social services that
they too would have the opportunity to reside in a neighborhood as we do; receiving the individual
and group assistance to make their lives as comfortable and similar in nature to anyone else
residing in this community.

To the City of Port Angeles Planning Commission, in the matter of the he i4#y,%FRRT—�—NG�ELES
f mmu
conditional use permit for the group home at 203 W. 12th Street: F!-nity nav--ment
We are the only homeowners in the neighborhood around the group home at 203 W. 12th
Street who were here when the house was a private residence. When the original hearing
was held to discuss the possibility of the house becoming a group home we were
supportive. We still are.
I. Over the years we have found Peninsula Community Mental Health to be
responsive to concerns expressed about the residents of the home and solutions to
those concerns to be immediate, up to and including removing a resident we have
found to be a bad fit for our neighborhood.
2. We thought that when, in the fall of 2009, a meeting was held to express some
serious issues with the house that were of more recent development,that
Peninsula Community Mental Health responded both immediately and
appropriately. There has never been a time when Peninsula Community Mental
Health was not willing to address our concerns. We have never hesitated to
express concerns or felt they would be ignored.
3. We appreciate the effort that has been done to maintain the house and yard,
especially recent improvements that undoubtedly took time and careful budgeting
to accomplish. This neighborhood is one that has a variety of homes, some well
cared for and some not. One only need walk along 12 1h Street between Laurel and
Cherry to see quite a number that are not. The group home is doing a good job in
this regard.
4. When the house was a private residence there were sometimes situations that were
not optimum, such as loud, late parties or, of much more serious concern,
subletting bedrooms to transients. Our interactions with Peninsula Community
Mental Health have given us recourse we didn't have when the house was
privately owned.
We think that Peninsula Community Mental Health needs to have a current conditional
use permit that is kept current. We think that the residents need supervision so Peninsula
Community Mental Health is aware on a daily basis of how individual residents are
doing. We think that residents should be careftilly selected by Peninsula Community
Mental Health so placement ensures residents who are at a stage of treatment enabling
them to function in a family neighborhood, both for our safety and theirs. There are
many children in our neighborhood, and we think Peninsula Community Mental Health
needs to continue to be mindful of this.
Good health,physical and mental, is one of life's great blessings. There is no guarantee
that if we are fortunate enough to have it,we will always have it. It is not inconceivable
that someone in our neighborhood might one day be in need of mental health support
services such as Peninsula Community Mental Health and the group home offer.
0 0
Private residences hold no assurance that horrible things can't or won't happen; over the
last 24+months in our neighborhood there have been tragedies in family homes that
stunned Port Angeles, one two blocks east of us and the other two blocks south.
Troubling news stories make us aware there are many people with mental disorders who
are getting no help whatsoever. In the group home at 203 West 12'h Street,they're
getting help.
Sincerely,

Dear Mrs. Roberds
I am writing to you in response to your request for comments regarding the issuance of a conditional
use permit for a group home located at 203 W 12 th StinPort Angeles. I reside at 209 W 12 1h St and hope
that you will present my comments to anyone who will listen to them and think about the implications
of what the City is about to do regarding this proposed group home.
Shortly after I moved into my home in 2007 1 was approached by a gentleman who owned a home on
1 11h St behind my house. He told me that he was going to be renting his house to a former resident of
this 203 W 12 th St residence. His purpose in notifying me was to ask if I would object which I did not. He
did say something that bothered me at the time. He said that the person that was going to live in his
rental left the 203 W 12 th St because he feared for his own wellbeing and "had to get out of there".
I thought no more about the 203 W 12 th St residence until last year when my neighbor across the
street asked me to sit with her daughter while she went to work.She had heard through a friend that
knew an employee who worked for the Peninsula Mental Health Clinic at one of their other homes,that
a peclophile was living at 203 W 12 th St and that she was afraid to leave her daughter alone while she
was at work.About the same time I heard this from my neighbor across the street,the neighbor who
lived to the right of me told me that one of the residents at the 203 W 12 th St home had threatened to
kill her daughter. I have been disturbed by these events and wonder why the City has not had any
structure or oversight for such a group home in our neighborhood. I have seen police cars coming and
going and have not experienced anything like this in any other neighborhood I have called home.
I wish.to state that I want to feel secure in my own neighborhood and the City should do what it takes
to make sure that happens.Thank you for listening to my issues with regard to your proposed
conditional use permit for 203 W 12 St. I plan to attend the meeting on August 24, 2010.
Sincerely yours,

Peninsula Community Mental Health Center
House Requirements
It is our mission to help residents become active members of the community in
accordance with their desires and dreams. Below is a list of housing requirements that
must be followed in order to remain in PCMHC agency housing.
Each resident must stay on their prescribed medications.
All agency houses are "Dry Houses". The consumption of alcohol or illegal drugs
on the premises or allowing visitors to bring or use alcohol or illegal substances is
not allowed and may lead to immediate eviction.
Each house has a "NO WEAPONS"policy on the property at any time, by
anyone
No alte�rgations to the property are allowed without written permission. Residents
will be required to pay for all damages made by themselves and or their guests.
Visiting hours are between 8:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m.
No smoking or any type of lit flame such as candles is allowed inside the homes.
i- No pets/fish are allowed on the premises.
Peninsula Community Mental Health Center(PCMHC) is applying for a conditional use
permit for our house at 203 W. 12 1h Street. The residence operates as a modified group
home for 4-6 unrelated adult residents. All of the tenants are disabled and have diagnoses
of Mental Illness. They have either limited or no contact with their families, few social
supports and subsist on low,fixed, monthly incomes typically ranging from $339.00 to
$637.00.
In a state licensed group home, staff are required to be on the premises of the house on a
24/7 basis because the residents are incapable of much self-reliance. Although the 12'h
St. house residents benefit from structure and need some assistance with community
integration and their activities of daily living,they,function in healthy, constructive ways
with considerable independence. With periodic assistance, they manage their finances,
take medication on their own, purchase and prepare the food they eat, wash their clothes,
and clean their living space.
The main goal of our house is to provide a comfortable and supportive living setting that
will allow each resident to strengthen their self-sufficiency skills so that in time they can
transition to more independent housing, as well as qualify or re-qualify for subsidized -
housing. We work to raise the quality of life for each resident and empower them to live
as capably as possible in our community.
To ensure the safety and well-being of tenants, PCMHC Designated Mental Health
Professionals are available 24/7 to our residents for emergency support and crisis
response. Our Case Aides and Peer Support Specialists visit the residence 5-7 days per
week to provide coaching in nutrition, hygiene, time management, problem solving,
budgeting finances, transportation arrangement, health support service follow-through,
self-advocacy and vocational plans. We also have a Residence Aide living full-time in
the house that supports tenants with upkeep of living space, encourages compliance with
house expectations, regularly communicates with our Residential staff and assists our
Facility staff with maintenance of grounds.
Within the past seven months, we have completely renovated the outside of the house and
part of the inside so that it is more appealing for our residents and fits in more easily with
the upkeep and quality of homes of our neighbors. Also, members of our staff and Board
of Directors met with neighbors from 12 th and Oak streets to relationship-build, address
concerns and discuss ways in which we could increase involvement between our tenants
and neighbors.
Peninsula Community Mental Health Center(PCMHC) is applying for a conditional use
permit for our supported living housing unit at 203 W. 12th Street. This residence has
been utilized as a supported living/transitional housing unit for 4-6 unrelated adult
residents since 1997. All of the tenants who have resided at this location since 1997 have
been low income individuals who have been diagnosed with a mental illness. The typical
monthly incomes of residents who rent rooms in this supported housing unit range from
$339.00 to $637.00.
Of the six current residents at this location, one has a vehicle and typically parks it on
12th street. The other five residents take public transportation as necessary. In addition,
one of the current residents is employed.
Staff from PCMHC visit the residence 4-7 days per week to provide coaching and skill
building activities such as self-advocacy skills training, social interpersonal skills
training, meal preparation, and house cleaning. The main goal in supported housing is to
provide an independent living setting with minimal supports that will allow the each
resident to transition to housing that is operated independently of the mental health center
over time. We work to raise the quality of life for each client and empower them to live
independently in our community.
None of the residents in the supported living unit meet the criteria for higher levels of
non-independent living services such as group home, board and care, or inpatient
treatment. Each of these services require 24-hour staffing on site.

S.ubject: Fwd: Conditioner Use Permit PCMHC

Nathan,Sue
Below are my observations and concerns with the draft application submitted by PCMHC.
1. It is my impression, from the information given in the application, there are no changes being made to the
operation of the activity, other than possibly giving one of the residents more,responsibility to encourage the
others in compliance with house expectations or just giving that person a title (Residence Aide) for things they
were already doing. How many Residence Aide's do they have trained and living in other locations? How long
has the Residence Aid program been in place?Are there any statistics as to the effectiveness of the program? (I
was unable to find a definition of residence aide)
2. There is nothing indicating the amount of time someone other that the Residence Aide, who lives there, is
spending at this location. Is the Residence Aide required to spend a certain number of hours available for
training each day?The application states the Designated Mental Health Professional is available for emergencies
on a 24/7 basis to ensure the safety of the residents (how?). The Case Manager or Peer Support
Specialist make visits 5-7 days per week but how long they are there is not stated. This Visits could be for 5 min
or 5 hours each, so there is no indication that the residence are supervised for any specific number of
hours each day or week.
3. 1 would question the ability of the Residence Aide to require cooperation from house mates in the same
manner that staff personnel would. How successful is the Residence Aide program? How many of their
clients have developed the self-sufficiency skills needed to transition to more independent living vs. the number
that have lived in location like 12th street house long term or have had to go to a situation with more
supervision like 2nd Street House?
4. The fact that these people have limited or no contact with family, few social supports and subsist on a low
income is not a situation unique to patients of-PCMHC.
5. There is no i-ndication as to the time it takes for a Designated Mental Health Professional to respond to a crisis
situation. What are the guidelines given to the Residence Aide about when to call a DMHP vs. 9-1-1?
6. 1 was given the impression by Mr. Casey's explanation during the June 15th meeting that a Peer Support
Specialist would be living at the residence. What is the difference in training between a PSS and an RA?As
-mentions previously, I was able to find a definition for a Peer Support Specialist but not a Residence Aide.
(Google peer support specialist and residence aide)
Overall I don't feel the hard.questions about how much supervision is going to be provided and a plan on how
to accomplish this has been provided.

To:
Date: 6/19/2010 2:31 PM
Subject: 203 W 12th St
Sue,
I have just reviewed all of the e-mails between you and me.
1. Peninsula Mental Health met with us last October and CLEARLY stated that this was a Group
home.
2. My initial e-mail to you summarized the "history" behind this home owned by Peninsula Mental
Health, its' acquisition and the COMMUNITY input that was required to receive the initial conditional
use permit in a R-7 single family residential zone.
3. The purpose as set forth in my initial e-mail was to engage your office in better oversight of this
home. I urged you to consult and review with the police department and detective division all of
the recent calls to that property and also told you that at the time of our community meeting with
Peninsula Mental Health that they had, indeed, acknowledged to the neighbors present that a sex
offender was living there. The home is virtually next to a school!!
4. 1 stated that Peninsula Mental Health was telling you one thing and the residents of the
neighborhood something else.
5. It is now many months since my initial disclosure to you and Peninsula Mental Health has never
addressed those concerns with the neighborhood that they promised at the meeting in
October. Those concerns centered around unsupervised activity of mentally ill patients they had
placed there that were disturbing the neighborhood and posed a perceived threat to the residents
(ie children). I believe Peninsula Mental Health has stonewalled and used their attorney to
otherwise intimidate your office and forge a solution that solely benefits them and not our
neighborhood.
6. REMEMBER..........the reason for our initial meeting was to get better accountability from
Peninsula Mental Health in the monitoring and rehabilitation of THEIR OWN PATIENTS.
7. Your recent e-mail suggests an "administrative" solution rather than an ethical one it seems to
me. I'm sorry to say this, because I know that this has been a real headache for you and Pat
Bartholic, However, if THE solution is to rent to one mentally ill person who by the very nature of
the existence of the home setting itself, proves that he cannot live independently and then.....
place him in charge of 5 other mentally ill non-related individuals who do not have the skills to live
independently and to collect rent from those individuals so as to allow Peninsula Mental Health to
obviscate their fiduciary responsibly to these patients......well........then perhaps I did move to the
wrong town after all.
8. On the other hand.....if Peninsula Mental Health wanted to rent 203 W 12th St to a Certified
Social Worker or a Mental Health Care Provider, who lived there, who mentored the residents there
and provided guidance and rehabitative skills to live independently....and thus collected rent from
them (all of whom are unrelated), then it seems to me that this solution would satisfy the
"mission" of 203 W 12th St and satisfy the fears and hopeful expectations of those who live in the
neighborhood. (see the original structure and CUP for 203 W 12th St!!!)

Page 2 of 2
9. 1 urge you and Pat Bartholic, NOT to agree to a solution that places future neighborhoods in Port
Angeles in the same jeopardy that we have faced. R-7 districts need to be nurtured, protected and
encouraged.........thatis...... if family oriented neighborhoods and school districts are to survive
and flourish.
10. 1 continue to believe that you will not fail me and that you will be true to your mission.

NOTES TO FILE: Peninsula Mental Health—203 West 12'h Street
IN ATTENDANCE: Peninsula Mental Health representatives: Peter Casey, Grant
Munro, Debbie Reed
City Staff. Nathan West, Sue Roberds, Patrick Bartholick
Met to discuss the status of a pending conditional use permit application- the occupancy
of 203 West 12 th-Street as a residence for people with special needs who are living as
boarders. Living arrangement characteristics were discussed such as group homes,
assisted living facilities, single family, and multiple family occupancies. PMH staff
insisted that the residency of a group (5) of individuals under supervision or supported by
an outside agency who are living at a residence is not a group home. Residents are
supervised by PMH employees on a daily basis and report to PMH regarding their living
situations and concerns but they basically live independently and are trying to assimilate
into a normal family life. Residents each sign a lease with PMH and pay rent based on
what they can afford. City staff believes that the use is more like a boarding house where
rooms are let rather than a family unit where everyone pitches in to cover expenses. Each
occupant has a different rental agreement and is provided subsidy care from public funds.
PMH is paid from public funds and grants for their services.
PMH is not licensed to operate a group home at this location and do not wish to become
licensed to do so. A group home in the RS-7 zone requires a state license.
Staff stressed that the living situation does not seem to be a true family unit if each
individual living there is basically paying PMH rent and then being attended to by PMH
staff. it appears to function more like a boarding home. That needs to change if the use
is to continue in the RS-7 zone which is the most restrictive zone in the City and is
intended for single family occupancies with special services as licensed by the state
allowed by conditional use permit.
PMH will contact staff no later than July 6 with a determination as to a course of action
in this matter.
In response to comments about neighborhood complaints, Debbie Reed said that she, as a
Board Member, had received good feedback from the occupancy from neighbors
including Betsy Dinhart and Linda Howarth and believes this is a very supportive
neighborhood. Staff commented that neighbors are not non supportive but would like
more communication on several issues dealing with the atypical occupancy.

Peninsula Community Mental Health Center(PCMHC) is applying for a conditional use
permit for our supported living housing unit at 203 W. 12 th Street. This residence has
been utilized as a supported living/transitional housing unit for 4-6 unrelated adult
residents since 1997. All of the tenants who have resided at this location since 1997
have been low income individuals who have been diagnosed with a mental illness. The

meal preparation, and house cleaning. The main goal in supported housing is to provide
an independent living setting with minimal supports that will allow the each resident to
transition to housing that is operated independently of the mental health center over
time. We work to raise the quality of life for each client and empower them to live
independently in our community.
None of the residents in the supported living unit meet the criteria for higher levels of
non-independent living services such as group home, board and care, or inpatient
treatment. Each of these services require 24-hour staffing on site.

Dear Mr. Casey:
A substantial amount of communication has taken
place-with City staff and-you
and your staff regarding the livin -arrangement at 203 West Twelfth Street, which is a.,
9
structure owned and o crated by Peninsula Mental Health. The first matter of business is
p
�Zj�
to determine.the type of use that is,-occurring at the site. Followinga great deal of
consideration and review of both:State and City development regulations, the last
c -respondence*between this�Department and your staff(email of April 15 2010) with
or
regard to the occupancy of 203 West Twelfth Street wasthat the current use is not one
that is permitted in a single family.zone as described. Staff offered to discuss the merits
of a-conditional use permit application proposal with you prior to such an,application.
That review did not occur, but an application was submitted on-April 30,.2010.
After reviewing the information provided in the application, staff will not"be able
to recommend that the-Planning Commission approve this application. The Planning
Commission must consider a use on the merits'of the proposed use-with respect to
n
compliance with the purpose of the zone in which the use is located and its association
with other uses expected to be located Within that zone. Who the ao licant is' or th&*
1p
economics of an issue are not items that may be considered. A conditional use pen-nit is
precedent setting in that once found to be in compliance with-a.particular zone, such an
activity will become conditionally permitted anywhere the zone is found. In other words
a CUP activity is not site specific or user specific.
As required by the Federal,Fair Housing Act and the State of Washington,the
City of'Port Angeles provides for group homes and assisted living arrangements in all
residential zones. However, the activity described does not meet the definition of"group
home" or "assisted living arrangement" as defined by the.State of Washington. It would
appear that income level is the underlying,reason for the living arrangement. The
application indicates that residents have not been-diagnosed with functional disabilities
�V
severe enough to require supervision provided by those types of facilities. Application
information indicates that the income level of the residents is the qualifying factor in the

Subject: Re: 12th St. Supportive Housing Unit
CC: Nathan West; Sue Roberds
Mr. Casey,
Without further information we will be unable to comment on the type of Conditional Use Permit PCMHC should
apply for. However, we are willing to look at a proposal prior to receiving an application for the CUP, if that will
be helpful. Please provide a letter outlining what type of housing you feel the activity is most like, the reasons
why it isn't, for example a Boarding Home, and why the CUP should be granted.
It is unfortunate you will be out and I wish you a speedy recovery. If a member of your staff is able to provide
us with this letter in your absence we try and have a response prior to your return on the 26th. This will allow
time for the application to be submitted before the end of the month.
I will be out of the office on Friday 4/16 and return on Monday 4/19.
Thank you,
Pat

Hi Patrick,
The PCMHC Board of Directors have decided to apply for a Conditioner Use
Permit for our 12 St. Supportive Housing Unit. I am having some surgery
tomorrow and will be out of the office until for 4/26. However, the
application has been started and the architect plans obtained, so I
anticipate submitted the application to you by 4/30.
Do you recommend that we apply for a Supportive Housing Unit or a
Boarding Home Conditioner Use Permit?

more i children) would require conditional use permits in residential districts but would be
permitted outright in all commercial districts.
In addition, the amendment would provide that adult family homes (4 to 6 unr'
and supported livi 1 0 elated persons),
ing arrangements (dwelling units owned or rented by one or more persons with
functional disabilities who receive assistance with daily living and/or medical care from properly
licensed individuals or agencies) be permitted in those districts in which residential uses are
permitted (except RTP), and residential care facilities (5 to 15 people with functional disabilities)
would be permitted with a conditional use permit in the RS-7 and RS-9 Districts and outright
permitted in the RMF, residential muld-family district and commercial districts (except OC).
Further, a definition is added i.ndicating a "family" limits occupancy to 6 unrelated adults living

a'dded iudicating a *famil.v" limits occupancy to 6 unrelatzed adults living in -a
st.ngle-dwelling unit.
Mayor Sargent opened the public hearing at 8:58 p.m.
Planning Director Collins offered a correction to the staff memorandum from
which Nlayor Sargent read her introductory statements. Residential care
facilities (5 to 15 people with functional disabilities) would,be permitted with a
conditional use permit In the RS-7, R-S-9 and R.MF districts.
Nancy Martin. 2340 Samara' Place, expressed corcern about the lack of
availability (,T child care in the community and the need to remove as many
barriers and duplications in regulatory jurisdictions as possible. Ad-option of the
proposed ordinance would help in that way. Ms. Martin reviewed the activities
in a family day care home and noted those 'activities are incidental to established
residential activities. The day care homes will always be
limited to !ess than
children. and Ms. Martin felt State licensing procedures are such that City
regulation should not be necessary. Further, such duplicate regulation proves
to be extremely costly to the applicant. ir a day care provider ceases to be a
good neighbor. the City has noise and nuisance ordinanLes, which can be
enforced. Ms. Martin noted there are only 24 licensed homes in the City; there
is a desperate need for additional care. She discussed the role of Parent line
and referenced petitions signed by local residents who are concerned about
quality child care in the community. In addition. %Is. Martin referenced a letter
from Ms. Darlene Ryan, Principal at Monroe Elementary and Chairman of Lbz
Youth 2000 Child Care Committee. She urged Council to adopt the ordinance.

PROPOSED ZONING CODE AMENDMENT ZC'A-91 (08) 6 CITY OF
PORT- ANGELES, City-wide: Day care and residential care
recrulations.
Mr. -Jimerson reviewed the Department Report. Mr. Leonard
asked how life safety inspections would occur if the City did
not have a permitting process. Fire Marshal Becker responded'
that the Fire Department is notified by DSHS when day cares
apply for licenses and the Fire Department does inspect all
day care facilities. DSHS would not issue a license until the
Code is met and inspections have been made. Mr. Leonard asked
why day care should be treated differently than other types of
home occupations, such as a beauty shop. Staff responded that
residential day care, by definition, is accessory to residen-
tial use and beauty shops are commercial in nature and do not
require residential locations to exist. The Comprehensive
Plan does not limit its scope of concern to land use impacts,
PLANNING COMMISSION

but also considers social objectives and the need for adequate
community facilities. Mr. Collins pointed out the staff's
recommendation does not follow to the letter the model
ordinance recommendation. For example, the model ordinance
recommends that Residential Care Facilities be permitted by
right in all zoning districts. Staff Is recommendation is that
a conditional use permit be required in residential districts.
Chairman Gruver opened the public hearing at 7: 10 P.M.
Nancy Martin, 2340 Samara Place, the director of Parent Line,
reviewed the history of the Governor's Task Force which was
created to eliminate barriers to provision of day care,
resulting in a Bill which was passed requiring local govern-
men'�s to study the need for day care. She was concerned that
Conditional Use Permit requirements would reduce the avail-
ability of day care facilities. The number of children
included in a family day care center must include the pro-
vider' s own children. She stated the Department of Social and
Health Services provides rigorous reviews, and thze City' s
reviews would be an unnecessary duplication. DSHS evaluates
day care facilities. with respect to fire and health concerns.
Family day care centers maintain a residential appearance..
There are no exterior signs; there are no significant numbers
of parked cars; they do not appear as a business from the
outside. She noted that Parent Line, -hich acts as a referral
source between parents searching for day care and licensed day
care providers, is unable to provide referrals for approxi-
mately 25% of the .people who. call in, and it is especially
difficult to find day care for those who have infants two
years and younger. The slow economy in the region has
resulted in increasing numbers of two empiLoyed persons in the
households - the mothers are forced to go to work to support
the household. There is ambiguity in the current codes with
regard to child care. Child care is not defined. It is a
question whether it should be interpreted as a home occupa--ion
L
or as a pre-school or something else. The Conditional Use
Permit process is tine-consuming; it is costly; and it dupli-
cates the State ' s processes. The SEPA review process is
burdensome and serves no practical purpose. There are 200
communities in Washington which already exempt day care
facilities; 85 communities have responded to the model
ordinance prepared by the State.
-Mr. Catts asked what percent .of care centers in Port Angeles
are operating without a license. Ms. Martin responded it is
hard to estimate because parents who use the. "underground" day
cares are very secretive about letting anyone know who is
providing those ,services.
Jessica Schreiber, 3261 Greentree Lane, stated there is a need
for day care to be provided in Port Angeles. The City should
hot onlybe removing barriers to day care, but encouraging it
also. There are sound policy reasons to support exempting
family day care facilities from home occupations. She cited
PLA" ING COMMISSION
August 28 , 1991
Page 3
a traffic study which was conducted on the impact of day cares
in residential zones, which found that traffic increased only
slightly and that the distribution of automobile traffic was
spread out evenly throughout the day. There was no signifi-
cant back-up of cars at any one time. Further, residential
day cares should not be treated the same as a business, as
there is not enough money to be made by the providers. Many
of the providers are working for poverty level wages. She
noted there is a turnover rate in providers of approximately
40%. Family day care centers provide an opportunity for care
of children within a home setting and not in a commercial
setting. There are conflicting State and local regulations,
which create confusion for the provider, resulting in many day
care providers avoiding the licensing procedures and working
"underground" . In response to questions from the Commission,
Ms. Schreiber stated many day care providers charge $1. 50 per
hour per child. Conflicts between State and local regulations
could include the number of children allowed, the amount of
play area requirE -., fire safety and '.ouilding code differences.
Lois Blank, 824 Georgiana, stated DSHS puts the providers
through a rigorous review which involves personal and criminal
checks. Providers are required to obtain first aid training
and CPR training. Day care homes are inspected annually by
the Fire Department. They are required to maintain smoke
detectors and the houses be child-proofed to protect the
children from any poisons, wood stoves, etc. , which could
present a hazard. Health issues are also considered, noting,
for e.xample, the children ' s coats have to be located so they
do n-.-)t touch each other; the dirty diapers are to he placed in
plastic bags and the parents take them home to dispose of.
There is a heavy demand for child care in Port Angeles' which
needs to be filled.
Larry Hayden, 1831 West Seventh Street, stated he is employed
by the Department of Social and Health Services and is
responsible for licensing family day care homes. He pointed
out he is neither a proponent nor an opponent for the proposed
ordinance amendment; rather, he was making himself available
for cruestions on State regulations and licensing procedures.
The State licensing procedure is rigorous, taking 90 to 120.
days to complete. of those who apply for approval , approxi-
mately one-third actually make it through the process. The
other two-thirds drop out because either the process is too
extensive or complex, or often because the applicant is found
to have a criminal record. It is his job to look at three
aspects of the family , day care home when evaluating an
application. He looks at the person; their character, back-.
ground, education, etc. He looks at the physical facility:
are the bathrooms adequate? Is there adequate interiors ace?
p
Is there adequate exterior space? Are child-.proof fences
' provided/ He pointed out that DSHS cannot issue a license
until the Fire Department has certified that the home meets
the Code. . The third criterion for evaluation is the program
to be provided. He referenced that. the State has a set of
PLANNING COMMISSION

developmentally appropriate practices. The licensing process
can typically result in cost to the applicant that ranges from
$1, 000 to $5, 000. Day care providers are required to be
insured and the Department of Social and Health Services also
monitors the food programs. Food programs are run by a
private non-profit organization, which makes food available to
all licensed day care facilities at a discount. The State
tries to inspect each day care once a month if possible.
Inspections are unscheduled and drop-in visits are made at
random. In response to questions from the Commission, Mr.
Hayden stated that the City of Port Angeles could abrorb twice
the number of existing family da,', care homes, noting there is
a Z--pecial need for day care homes which provide service to
infants two years of age and younger. The licensing applica-
tion fee for DSHS itself is $24 . Most of the cost of licens-
ing comes from the need to upgrade the facilities to meet the
State standards. Required fencing is typically the most
expen:�ivp �tem. The State is trying to encourage day care
facilities, noting that Parent Line was created as a means to
match up parents in need of day care with licensed ' day care
providers. He has not had any problems with conflicts between
State and local regulations. Those are the type of things
that, may affect the providers themselves, but not him as an
employee of the State. The State has the power to revoke
licenses; however, they probably would not revoke a license if
neighbors were to complain about excessive noise. Rather,
they would work with the provider to arrange for activities
and operations that would not generate as much noise. Mr.
Hayden noted that he is responsible for licensing all of
Clallam County and a portion of Port Townsend. There are 52
licensed centers in Clallam County and approximately 30 in
Port Angeles. The time-consuming aspect of obtaining State
licensing is not a result of bureaucratic processes. Rather,
it is mostly attributed to the tine it -takes to comply with
the requirements of the State. Contractors need to be
arranged for and the work needs to be carried out. Re-
inspections need to be made after work is completed. It is
very difficult to complete the process in 90 days - 120 days
is more realistic. The high turn-over rate can, in part be
attributed to the lack of income generated by a family -day
care home. Many providers will move and not re-open a day
care after they move. Many day care providers get tired of
the constant review by the State. The City's application
costs become a burden when they are added to all the other
expenses necessary to comply with the State's requirements to
open up, especially when .the day care provider is just start-
ing and does not have any income .yet. He estimated approxi-
mately one-third of the day care, providers would have quit-had
they been required to follow up with the city's permitting
process. Mr. Hayden stated that much of his job is to act as
an investigator; that he has a significant amount of authority
in investigating the backgrounds of potential day care
providers.

Dear Sir/Madam:
Peninsula Communi.ty Mental Health Center is petitioning
for a conditional use permit for the property located at
203 West 12th Street ( Port Angeles ) .
This property is being acquired for the intended use of
establishing an Adolescent Transition Home which will be
licensed by the Department of Social & Health Services
(WAC 388-73 ) as a group home. It is intended to provide
a residential environment for four adoiescent girls who
are in need of 24 -hour supervision, training, and treatment
in order to transition to an independent living environment.
This type of program is needed in our community since there
is no similar service and it enables adolescents to be kept
in their local community rather than be transported off
the Olympic Peninsula to Olympia, Vancouver, or Seattle.
Upon review of the city zoning ordinance, it is noted that
the requested conditiona'l use is permitted in areas designated
RS7. It is also noted that there are no areas designated
where group homes may be located without a conditional use
permit .
I look forward to working with you and your staff to expedite
this request.
ncerely,
Donald R . Zanon
