A public heai-i~ig to consider arnendrnents to the Gity of Central Point Municipal Code Section 17.44, Tourist and Professional Office District, Section 17.72, Site Plan and Landscaping Plan Approval, Sectzon 17.6~, Oft~ Street Parking, and the addition of Section 17.75, Design Standards. Applicant: Cit~~ of Central Point Tl~ere were ~~o conflicts or ex parte comr~~unications to diselose Plannin~ Manager pon Burt gave a presentation on proposed arnendrnents to the Cer~t~•al Paint Municipal Code zoni~lg ritle 17.44, Tourist and Professional O-ff"ices, 17,64, Off- Street Parking and Loading Standards, Section 17.72, Site Plan and Landscaping Plan A~proval, a~id the addition of 17.75, Desi~n Standards. Mr. Burt stated that t~he ~rimary intent of the changes was to eliminate size restnctions ta accommodate large retail establishments. Some of the challenges involved include the establishrnent af design standards, rnaintaining a"srnall tawn" feel and complying with the coniprel~ensive plan. In order to maintain ~"stnall tot~~n" feeling with future developlnent, design standards are needed to create waikability and maintain pedestrian scale. Proposed changes to code were braken down into sections. Beginning with section 17.44, Tourist and Office Professional, Mr. Burt reviewed cl~anges that are proposed to uses, si~mabe and pa7•king. All design standards ~zave been consoiidated to section 17.75. Section 17.72, Site Plai~ and Arc~Zitectural Revietiv (SPAR), has been cha~iged to focus on landscape and architectural design plans for ~y proposed use and are applicable to all development and zlew canstruction. Major and nlinor projects ~re detined in this sect[on which has bee~~ rewritten in its entirety to achieve consistency. Section 1'7.b4, Off-Street Parking and Loading, contains rnodifications for bicycle and handicapped parking and inakes reference to tlie City's Transportatian System Plan. The section sets out how much parking a development will tieed and has converted text to tables. Maxitnum parking requirements have been established for non-residential uses as well. This section of code gives the Con~munity Develapment Director the authority to determine the amount of parking that would be required for uses not listed. Finally, sectio~i 17.75, Design and Devel~pment Standards, has been written to inclucie criteria for the management of large retail building design and ensures that the "small town" ohjective of the City is attazned. T1~e proposed desigxt standards will apply ta all zoning districts, with tlie initial focus on commercial development (landscape standards, Plrrnr~irtg Cvrnniission A-lisautes November 4, ?O1(1 Pcage 4 illumination, buildiY~g design standards, fa~ade articulation ai~d equipment screening to name a few). At the conclusion af the presez7tation, the public portion of the hearing was ope~led to receive comments. Attorney Mark Bartk~olamew came forward. He stated that he was a resident of Ce~~tral Point, thanked Don Burt for alI of the time spent on the ~roposed code cha.nges, and added that he represented a number of stakeJ~olders who would be a£fected by the changes in the code as it pertains to the C-4 zonui~ distrxct. Mr. Bartholomew expressed dissatisfaction with the ~0% glazing requirement in section 17.75, saying tllat it was excessive and would be expensive to create. In addition, it would prevei~t utilization of thase areas for merchandise storage. He recornrnended that a 20% requirexnent could apply to the front of the store and would be more realistzc. Tn addition, the requireinent for two e~~trazaces to a store would be more problematf c than one entrance for security reasons. Mr. Bartholc~m~ew said that the requirect farade articulation would add unnecess'arily to the cast of construction and requested that staff recansider to require architectura~ elements every l 0U feet and not e<<ery 40 feet as written. Other areas of the praposed cade that Mr. Bartholome~r requested chan~es iz1 were setbacks, allawing parking i~l setbacks, removing the zequiretnents for loading zones, adding additional perniitted uses (bowling alley, truck rentals, vehicle sales). He additionally 7•equested that in table 17.64.02, maximurns be eluninated as custorner traffic would be pretty hi~i for banks and ather financial institutions. Tlie lan~,7uage in sectioz~ 17.75.070 (2}{~ is too vague, he stated, and Ieaves t~o much room for interpretation. Frank Pulr~er, corrunercial real estate developer, came forward and stated that the current C-4 district standards ha~~e been hard ta wark r~~ith. He would like to see us get away fram the "tourist" designation iz~ code and create an ordinance that would allow inajor retailers to come in and develop. Econamics, he stated, is key to making something happen, and the uses set forth in cade are ambiguous between wholesale and retail. There needs to be something to allow ~or a hyt~rid use. Dt~n But~t responded to the zssues raised, stating tha# the code contains prov~sions to exceed maximum parking requirements; big boxes generally have two entrances; the purpose of glaz~ng is that it is naore pleasing ta customers; farade articulation. is supported by ord.inances through~ut the country and 40% ~azing is a goal, with provisians for alternative design solutions. As far as C-~ district setbacks, the cade allows for a building to go anywliere on a property but the parking has to be set back and loading zones are ~er the current code. Illurnination and minimum/malcimum parking were cllanges that were intraduced t~iis evening. Ta~t1 Hurnphrey, Community Development Director, ad~Tised that staff is in no hurry ta Plcannin; Cum»iissic>n 1Lfimate,s .'Vovembe.t~' 9, 2010 Puge S move forward with the code chaYiges. T~ey can wait until January to go before the City Council. Mr. Humphrey said that it saunds like the group wants so~ne degree of predictability going forward. Cl~uck PilaYld, Vice Chainnan, said that Cammissioners are not here to make developers happy but to make the citizens of Ce~tral Point happy. Mr. Burt advised the Cc~mmissioners that they had several options a~~ailable to them. They could either close the public heai-ing ar leave it open ta be continued.; o~• the hearirig could ~~e closed with recommendations and changes ~orwarded to the City Council. Staff recommends that the proposed code chan~;es be forwarded to the City Council. The public heariz~g was the~i closed. T~on Burt advised that wholesale uses should not be added as pe~-mitted uses in the C-4 zone as this would not be consistent with the intent of the C-4 dish-ict a7~d wou.ld further rec~uire remanding proposed changes to DLCD for revie~~ and comrnent, Planning Comrnission members inquired about the Citizens' Advisory Cornmittee's reaction to the proposed changes. Tom Hunipllrey stated that the~~e were a rnixture of feelings. Two of the members were concerned with lifting the size limitation and recamrneixded that we kee~ the 80,400 but make concessions based on who the applicant is. Keith Wangle made a motion ta approve Resolution No. 777 fot-v~~arding a favorable reconimendation to the City Council to consider amendments to the municipal code zoning title 17.44 Tourist and Professional Office, 17.64 Off-Street Parking and Laading Standards, 17.72 Site Plan and L~ndscaping Pla~n Approval, and the addition of 17.75, Design Standards based on the standards, findings, conclusions and recommendations stated in the staff report and including the changes to illumination and parking that were ~resented by Mr. Burt.

The physical address is 134 Laurel Street and is identified on the Jackson County Assessor's map as 37S 2W 03DD, Ta~ Lot 6000. Applicant: Rogue Valley Recovery Homes; Agent: Harry Detwiler. STAFF SOURCE: Connie Clune, Corrununity Planner BACKGROiJND: Proposed Use - The applicant proposes to operate withui an existing duplex a self-run convalescent home, Rogue Valley Recovery Homes, a non-prafit organizatior~ providing support for up to fifteen (15) people transitioning from addiction to self sufticiency. The peer monitaring of this group home requires individual accauntability a.nd ac~llerence to the program's rules of saber, ~awful behavior of each tenant (see Applicant Exhibit D). Convalescent homes are allowed as a c;onditional use within tlie R-2 c~istrict, As a use, convalescent homes are classified as a group quarters type facility for rehabilitatioYi or recuperation from disability or illnessl. The Americans with Disabilities Act 2008, Section 12114 (b) recognizes an individual successfully recovering, or who is par~i~~ipating in a rehabilitation p7•agram, as a qual~fied individual with a disability. Nanconforming Status - The proposed operarion will be housed in a duplex built in the 1950's. By dupleC standards, this is a very large structure {4,620 square feet, 11 bedraoms tatal}. The duplex previously operated far a number of years as the Laurel Residential Care Facility, a lic;ensed residential care facility. Residential Facilities are allowed as a permitted use in the R-2 zane'. Since 2005 the building has been used as a dupleY. In 1988, the building was designated a Class "A" Nonconforming structure. The nonconfonning status was based on insufficient parking, coverage and setback non-complia.nce. At the time of Class "A" designatian, the Plaxuzing Commission allawed the continued use of the structure as a residentiai care facility {pennitted use}, provided that the occupancy did not e:~ceed I S people. ' cPMC i~.oK.oio ~ CPMC 17.24,p2(~Hj ,i. ~ 4 ~ ~ 4 a 0 ,~. 4 4 p The Ap~licant aY•gues that few of the tenants have vehicles {approx.imately 37% have vehicles}, requzring a nlinimuin of six (b) aff-street spaces, redt~cing the deficiezicy from four (4) to two (?} spaces. As a further mitigating circumstance it is noted that vc~ithi-1495 feet, the Rogue Valley Transit District (RVTD) lias a covered bus stop (Manzanita and Second Streets). Although not Iocated within the T~D district, tlie prajeet site is adjacent to the boundary (see map Attacl~nent E), The TOD dist~-ict allows a 25% parking reduction when transit ser~7ces are available. If a parking reduction were allowed for transit availability, then the parking rec~uireme7~t ~~ould be reducecl to six (6} spaces, Ieaving a deficiency of ttuo (2} spaces. The primary issue in consideration of this application is the adequaey of parking. As indicted in the above table, a minimum of eight (8) spaces are required by code. However, the Planzzing CoYnrnission is authorizeda to adjusY off-stY~eet parking requirements based on the unique characteristics of the proposed use. In this case the unique characteristics wauld be: 1. Proximity to transit service; and 2. Due to tl~e disabilities of the tenants few have a vehicle. Considering these two characteY-istics it could be argued that a minimuin of six (6) parking spaces would be adequate. This would require two {2} additional parking spaces. The o~~y locafio7l for oft-street parking would be to create parking within the Laurel Street front yard setback of the property and a~~ added provision to allow tandem parking in the driveway and for the existing rear carport. Subject ta conditians the application can be found ta meet the Canditional Use Permit criteria as conditianed (See Attachment "F"). CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL: 1.

You have stated that you would like to house as many unrelat~ed aduIts in the duplex as possible however there az•e some limitations in both the zoning and building codes that I wiYl explain to you in t11e balance of tl~is letter. I wilI also give you some direction if you choose to proceed with your plans, After revietiring the zoning code requirements, fivo-family e~wellings are permitted uses when accupied by a family which the CPMC defines as, c~n indizndr~at; or [zoa or yaiare perso~zs relrated by bZood, marriage, degr~J adoph'a~t or guardinr7sJiip; or a group of not n:ore tT:a:e five i~rxrelated persons liviarg togetl~ter irz a dwelir~ig uiiit_ Under the City~ 's regulations you are ~.*ermitted fio have five (5) unrelated persons livi~lg in each of the two units for a total of ten (l0) persons.

The City would require you to supply a copy of your applicatiorl and the supporting documentation for state Izcensing of your facility. ~'inally, the R-2 zoning district aIso allows as a Condiiiorial Use, cot~z~alesceiif 1io~rces defined as n grn~~p qr~arters h~F~e facilih~ for eiflier sF~f or trnig fen~r indrviduaZ cr~re, ~ttedical treafnrenf, relurbilitatiort ~~ recx~per~zirmi frnm disabilihj oi• i11r2ess.

Finding: T~ie project site is within the R-2, Residential Two-FaYnily zoning district. CPMC Section 17.24.30{A) provides review for a canva~escent home and as such the Applicant submitted this applicatian, Finding: CPMC I7.U8.010 defines a ct}nvalescent home to include rehabilitation or recuperation from disability or illness. The Americans ~vith Disabilities Act ?.008, Section 12114 (b) reco~izes an iixdividual successfully recoveriYi~ ar who is pai~ticipating in rehabilitation pro~nam as a qualified individual with a disability. Finding: The proposed project is self-run recovery home for fiftee~l (15) residents with deftned disabilities a~id as such meets the de~nition o€convalescent home. Conclusifln: The proposed use is defined as a convalescent home Y7.76.040 Findrngs anc~ co~drtion~. The plar~.rzing comnaission, in grantir~g a cay:ditional a~se~~er~nit, shall,find us,follows: Page 1 of 5 c,- r • rJ I~f ~4. Thc~t the site,for the propased use is adequate in size a.nd sh.ape to accom~riodate tlie use atad to rneet ull other development and lot reqaciremerxt.~ of'the st~bject zoning distyict and all other pr°ovr'sio~zs of this code; Finding: The 4,620 square feet, 1~ bedroom duplex is adequate in size and shape to accomniodate up to fifteen tenants as proposed. Previously, the building served as the Laurel Residenfiial Care Facility. The 20 t 4 4regon Structural Specialty Code classified the building as Graup R-3 Occr~pafacies, Congr•~gat~ li>>irzg facility with sixteen { 16) or fewer occupants pennitted, OSSC Section 310. Finding: On January 5, 1988, the Flatuiix~g Commission desi~ateci the subject building as a Class A Nonconfanning structure. The Commission found that tl~e building, built in the 195Qs, lacked sufficient parking, setbacks and it exceeded the ~na~cinrurn building ~overage for a property in the R-2 zoning district. At the time of dassification the Pla~lning Comrnission allowed the continued use of the structure as a licensed residential care facility (pennitted use), provided that the occupancy did not exceed 15 people. Use af the property as a 15 bed residential care facility did not generate any parking complaints. Finding: T}.ie R-2 c~istrict requires two (2} covered parking spaces per u,nit. The subject site has four {4} parking spaces, {three {3) covered) which meets tl~e rninimum requirements for a duplex ant~ residential care facility in R-2 district. For a convalescent facility CPMC Section 17.64 C(2) requires one (1) parkin~ space per twa residerits o7~ eight (8) spaces for this project. Tl~e Applicar-t states that few of the tenants have vel~icles. Based on the four operating Rogue Valley Recovery Hornes and the current tenants, the number of tenants with a vehicle averages 37%, reducing the ~arking need to si~ (6} spaces. Finding: The Rogue Valley Transit District (RVTD} has a covereci bus stop located on Manzanita and Second Streets to service Route 4Q riders. The project site is witliin 495 feet of a covered bus stop {Manzanita and Secor~d Streets) far the Rogue Valley Transit District (RVTD). Although not located within the TOD district, the project site is adjacent to tk~e boundary {see map Attachnient E). The TOD district allows a 25% pa7•king reduction when transit services are available. If a pazking reduction were allowed for transit availability, then six {6) parking spaces would be required. Finding: The City of Central Point pa~-king Iot located at 120 First Sneet, west of the Senior Center and south (behind) of the p7-oject site, has existing parking agreements with the Rogue Valley Council of Govenlments (RVC~G) and the Senior Center and as such, no extra parking spaces are available to designate as additional parking for the Recovery Home. Finding: in 2005 the stnzcture was reinodeled to a duplex as evidenceci by Buildi~ig Pexrnit BOS-039. A duplex is a permitted use in the R-2 distc-ict. Each dwelling unit of the duplex ean be occupied by a faznily related by blood or by fi~=e or fewer uz~related Page 2 of 5 ~~ ~ .:~ V persons living together as defined by CPMC Section 17.08. A total of ten {] 0) unrelated people cat~ currently occupy the duplex. Conclasion: T~ie Class A Noncanfarming structure is adequate in size far the proposeci use, however, the site does not provide the required number of aff street parking spaces. As a CUP the Planning Commission has the discretion to z~educe t~ie parking requirement subject to supporting findings. B, Tl~.at t1~.e srte has adeqzsate access to a public street or high~l-a}~ and that the st~-eet or~ higliway is udequate in size afad cortditiorz to e~eeti~Jely accorr~naaclute the traffic thal is e.xpected to be ,~enc~rated by~ the pt~oposeil us~,- Finc~ing: The project site fronts on Laurel Street an improved City street with curbs. T}Ze intended use of tlle structu7•e will be a residence and it is unlikely to exacerbate traffic conditions as Laurel Street is designed to provide residential traffic flow. An unimproved a11ey provides access to a carpart at the rear of the building. Finding: No sidewalks exist along this sec;tion of Laurel Street and will need ta be adc~ed i~n canforcna.nce wit11 the City's sidewalk improvement program {see Public Works Staff report dated Dece~~ber 20, 2010). As a condition of approval the Applicant shall either install tl~e sidewallc or sign a Deferred Impravement Agreement stating that the property owner will pay for the sidewalk impravement at such time sidewalks are installed. Conclusion: The proposed site meets this criterian. C. That the pro~osed use will have no signif cant ad~~erse e.ffect on abutting pro~~rty or the per~trtitted a~se thereof. In makirag this detet•ntr'ruztiofa, the cnn2n•aission slaall corzsidet• flze pi°oposed locatiora of i~nproverner~ts o~a t.he site; vehiczslar ingf•es.s, egr•ess and i~~atern~al cis-c~as.latio~; setbc~cks,- height of buildings arld stf°isctuf°es; lvalls a.nd. fe~aces; larzdscaping; oictdoor liglating; and sigras; Finding: The structure was built in the 1950s and operated as a eare facility for approximately twenty five years. In 2005 the awner converted the structure to a c~uplex. The Applicant's proposed use af the building will be similar to the previous use -a care facility and function as a group residence. The existing strueture will not be expanded beyond its current footprint. Setbacks, building height, fencing, and landscaping, is expected ta be maintained but will not be changed froYn the current configuration. Finding: As noted in the above findings, t~.e project site lacks the required number of pai•king spaces for a convalescent facility; howetrer, the Applieant states that few of the tenants have vehicles and proximity to transit service are considerations for reduction in the number of spaces required. The oi~ly location for off-street parking would be to create parking within the Laurel St~•eet front yard setback of the property. A provision ta allow tandeln parkin~ in the driveway and for the existing rear carport recognizes the existing spaces. Conclusion: The project can comply. Page 3 af 5 ~ " ;'~ ti D.

Fi~iding: The building was constnfcted in the 1950s, desi~nated as a nonconformin~ structure in 1988 and converted to a duplex in 2005. A duplex is a permitted use in the R-2 district, and CPMC Section 17.08 provides that each dwelling ui~it of t~le duplex can be occupied by a fan--ily or by five unrelated persons living togetlier for a duplex total of ten {10) unrelated people. Page 4 of 5 il r'" ."d V in consideration at tl~is time is the operation of a use within the existing building, and as such, the above conditions are not applicable to the project with the exception of: E{3). This subsection provides adjustments to off-street parking requirements in acca7•dance with the u~uque characteristics of the praposeci use. CPMC Section 17.64 C (2) requires 1 parking space per two residents for a total of eight (8) spaces for tlus ~roject. The unique characteristics of the proposed use, a con~alescent home for persons recovering fi-om addiction, is that the tenant d~es not typically ~a~~e a vehicle. The Applicants states that only approximately 37% of the tenants have vel~icles. The following table illustrates the required parking under various use scenarios~. Based on the praposed use of the property as a convalescent home there is an off=street parking deficiency of four {4) spaces.

If a parking reductian were allowed for transit availability, then six (6) parking spaees would be required. This wauld require two (2) additional pa7•king spaces. Creating diagonal parking within the Laurel Street front yard setback of the proper-ty would p7•ovide the necessary additio~ial spaces along with a provisian to allow tandem parking in the driveway and recognition of the existing tandem parking within rear caipart. Conelusion: The proposed use is not compliant with Section 17.64.C (2), and as such, the Cammission is aut~~orized ta make adjustments to ot~-street parking requirements and conditian the CUP request. The Applicant shall demonstrate that an adequate number o~ off-street parking spaces are provided in compliance with CPMC requirements to reduce any pote~tial vehicle parking cotzflicts that may adversely impact adjacent residents. ~ CPMC Section 17.64 C (Z) Page 5 of ~ ~~ ~ ~ ATT~4CH M ENT ",~..."
