The physical address is 134 Laurel Street and is identified on the Jackson County Assessor's map as 37S 2W 43DD, Tax Lot 6000. Appiicant: Rogue Valley Recovery Homes; Agent: Harry Detvviler. STAFF SOURCE: Connie Clune, Community PI anner Praposed Use - T`he Applicant proposes to operate withirz an existing duplex a self-run convalescent hnme, Ro~e Valley Recovery Hornes, a non-profit organization providing suppart for up to fifteen {15) peopZe transitioning frorn addzction to self-sufficiency. The peer rnonitoring of this graup hoine requires individual accountability and adherence to the program's rules af sober, lawful behavior of eacli tenant {see Applicant Exhihit D). Convalescent holnes are allowed as a conditional use u~ithin the R-2 dist~-ict. As a use, convalescent homes are classified as a group quarters type faeility for rehabilitation or recuperarion fro~n disability or illness~. The Arnericans with Disabilities Act 2008, Section 12114 {b} rec~gnizes an individuaX successfully recovering, or who is participating in a rehabilitation program, as a qualified individual with a~isability. Nanconforming Status - The proposed aperation will be housed in a duplex built in the 1950's. By duplex standards, this is a very large strtacture (4,620 square feet, 11 beclrooms total). The duplex pxeviously operated for a number of years as t~ie Laurel Residenhal Care Facility, a licensed residential care facility. Residential Facilities are allowed as a permitted use in the R-2 zone2. Since 2005 the building has been used as a duplex. In I988, the buildi~ng was designated a C~ass "A" Nonconforn~ing strueture. The nonconfonning status was basec~ on insuff cient parking, coverage and setback non-compliauce. At the time of Class "A" c~esignatian, the PYanning Cornmission allowed the continued use of the structure as a residential care facility {permitted tzse), p~•ovided that the occupancy did not e~cceed 1 S people. ~ ~~ ' CPhiC 17.~fi.{~ l Q Z CPMC ] 7.24.020( H) The Applicant argues tl~at few af the tenants have vehicles {approxitnately 37% have velucies}, requiring a rninimum of six (6) off-street spaces, reducing the deficiency from four (4} to two {2} spaces. As a further r-titigating circumstance it is noted that within 495 feet, the Rogue Valley Transit District (RVTD) has a covered bus stop (Manzanita and Second Sireets). Although not locateci within the TOD disfrict, the praject site is adjacent to the boundary (see ~nap Attachment E). The TOD dist~rict allows a 2S% paz'king reduction when transit services are available. If a parking reductian were allowed for transit availability, then the patking requireinen~ would be reduced to six (6) spaces, Ieaving a deficiency of two (2} spaces. ISSUES: The priniary issue in consideration of this application is the adequacy of parking. As indicted in the above table, a minimum of eight (8} spaces ar~ required by code. However, the Planning Coinmissian is authoi~zed4 to adjust off-street parking requirements based on the unique characteristics of the proposed use. In this case the unique charactezistics would be: l. Proximitq ~o transit service; and 2. Due to the disabilities of the fenants few have a~vehicle. Considering these two characteris~ics it ~could be argued that a minimum of si~ (6) parking spaces would be adequate. This would require two (2) additional parking spaces. The only location for aff-street parking would be to create parking within the Laurel Street front yard setback of the property and an added pravision to allow tandem parking in the c~riveway and for the existing rear carport. FINDINGS: Subject ta conditions the application can be found ta meet the Conditional Use Pet~nit criteria as conditianed (See Attaclunent "F"). ' CPMC Szction ] 7.64 C (2) ° CPMC Seciion ] 7.76.Q50(Ex3) Page 2 of 4 Parking --- The following table illustrates the required parking under various us~ scenarios3 allowed within the R-2 district. Based on the proposed use of the property as a co~ivaXescent home there is an off-street parl~ing deficiency af faur (4) spaces. CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL AS MODIFIED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION: 1. The Applicant shall subrnit to the Planning Department, for review and approval, a scaled parking plan (t11e "Parking Plan"} demonstrating that a mii~imum of six (6) off-street parking spaces can be provided on-site.

In preparing the Parking Plan, the following design ~ravisions are authoi-~zeds: a. Tandem parking is permitted provided the proposed tandenn parking does not extend over an existing, or future sidewalk; b.

Installation of said ~equired parking spaces is deferred at this time; hawever it shall be the Applicant's respof~sibility to instali said spaces in compliance with aIl code pravisions at such tiine as the City finds that six {6} paXking spaces are necessary ta protect the health, safety and negative impacts oi~ adjacen~ pro~erties. The Gity shall rnonitor the project site for complia~ce and shall file a pro~ess report with the Planning Cammzssion on or befare January 31, 2012. It sha1X be the Applicant's responsibility to manage parking in a manner that does not cause negative impacts on adjacent properties. If parking becomes an issue the Applicant has 60-days to resolve, ~ncluding constructian of a~f=site parking per the approved Parking Plan, frorn the time of writter~ noti~cation by the City. If not resolved to the satisfaction of the City within the 60-day limit, the City shall have the authority to revoke this Conditional Use Permit. 2.

This is an admirable effort to house and rehabilitate people who are recovering from addictions or wha are re-entering society after having been incarcerated. The building that you are considering for your operation is a duplex totaIing 4620 square feet and it is located in the R-2 Two-Family Residen{ia~ Zoning drstrict, Yau have stated that you wouId like ta house as many unreIatect adults in the duplex as possible however there are sorne limitafions in both the zoning and buildiz~g codes that I wiil explain to you in the i~alance of this 7ettez.

CPMC Section 17.24.30(A} provides review far a convalescent hame and as such t~e A~plicant submitted this application.

T~~e Americans wzth Disabilities Act 2008, Sectian I2114 (b} recognizes an individual successfully recovering or w~o is participatiz~g in rehabilitation program as a qualified individual with a disability. Finding: The propased praject is self-run recovery home far f fteen { 15} residents with defined disabilities and as such meets the definition of con~alescent home. Conclusion: The proposed use is defined as a convalescent hame 1?. 76. 040 Findings alcd canditio~s The planning comrriission, in grarrting a conditional use pet~ni.t, shalr~nd as fo11o1ti~s: Page T of 5 .4. ~'hat the site for the pyoposed ttse is adequate in size and s~iape to accomrnodate the use and to meet all other development and lot requrt•ements of the sul~ject zon.ing district and all other pro~.~isior2s of this code; ~ Finding: 1'he 4,620 square feet, 11 bedroom duplex is adequate in size and shape tc~ accommodate up to fifteen tenants as proposed. Previously, the building served as the Laurel Residential Care Facility. The 2010 Oregon Structural Specialty Code classified the building as Group R-3 Occupancies, Cor~grega.te living_facility with sixteen {1b) or fewer occupants permitted, OSSC Section 314. Findirtg: On January 5, 1988, the Planning Commission designated the subject building as a Class A Nonconformirig stntctul•e. The Commission found that the building, built in the l 950s, lacked sufficient parking, setbacks and it exceeded the ma3cimum building coverage for a property in the R-2 zoning district. At the time of classification the Planning Commission allowed the continued use af the sti-ucture as a licensed residential care facility {peirnitted use), pro~vided that the occupancy did nat exceet3 15 peopie. Use of the property as a 15 bed z~esidential care facility did not generate any parking complaints, Finding: The R-2 district requires two (2) covered parking spaces per unit. The subjeet site has faur (4} parking spaces, {tlzree (3) covered) which meets tt~e rnizumum requirernents for a duplex and residential care facility in R-2 distriet. For a convalescent facilzty CPMC Section 17.b4 C(2) requires one {1) parking space per two residents or eight (8} spaces for this project. The Applicant states tliat few of the tenants have vehicles. Based on the four operating Rogue Valley Recovery Homes and the current tenants, the number of tenants witl~ a vehicle averages 37%, reducing the parking need to six (6) spaces. Finding: The Rague Valley Transit District (RVTD) has a covered bus stop located on Manzanita and Second Streets ta service Route 40 riders. Tl~e project site is wi#hin 495 feet of a covered bus stop (Manzanita and Seco7id Streets) for the Rogue Valley Transit District {RVTD). Althougt~ not located within the TOD district, the project site is adjacent ta the boundary (see znap Attachment E). The TOD district allows a 25% parking reductian when transit services are available. if a parking reduction were allowed for transit availability, then six (6} parking spaces wauld be required. Finding: TYie City of Central Point parking lot located at 12Q First Street, west af the Senior Center and south (behind} of the project site, has existing parking agreernents with the Rogue Valley Council of Governments (RVCOG) and the Senior Center and as such, no extra parking s~aces are available to designate as additianal parking for the Recovery Home, Finding: In 2d05 tt~e structure was remodeled to a duplex as evidenced by Building Permit BOS-039. A duplex is a permitted use in the R-2 district. Each dwelling unit of the duplex can be occupied by a family relatecl by blood or by five or fewer unrelated Page 2 of 5 persons living together as defined by CPMC ~ection 17,08. A total of ten {l0) unxelatecl people can currently occupy the duplex. Conctusion: The Class A Noncanforniing structure is adequate in size for the proposed use, however, the site does not provide fhe required number of off street parking spaces. As a CUP the Planning Commission has the discretion to zeduce the parking requirement subject to supporting findings. B. That the site has adequate acc~ss to a public street or highway and t~iat the street or hrgh~a~ay is adeguate in size and condi~ion to effectivelv accommodate the traffc that is expected to be generated by the praposed use; Finding; The project site fronts on Laurei Street an improved City street with curbs. The intended use of the structure will be a residence and it is unlikely to exacerbate traffic conditions as Laurel Stzeet is designed to provide residential traffic flow. An unimproved alley provides access to a ca~port at the rear of the building. ~'inding: No sidewalks exist along this section of Laurel Street and wi11 need to be added in conformance with the City's sidewalk unprovement program (see Public Warks Staff report dated December 2U, 20l 0). As a condition of appravaI the Applicant shall either install the sidev~~alk or sign a Deferred Improvement Ageement stating tl~at fhe property owner will pay fox the sidewalk improvement at such time sidewalks are installed. Canclusion: The proposed site meets this criterion. C. That the proposed use ivill have no sigzTificanf adverse effect on abutti~zg pj•oper•fy pY f12e pef-naitted u.se thereof In mukrrig tltis det.erminatiort, the comrriission .shall consider the proposed location of inaprovernents on the si1e.; vehicular ings~ess, egress and internal crrculation; setbacks; height of buildir~g~ a~zd stf~uctur•es; walls a~ad.fences; landscapi~rg; oz~tdaor~ lighting; and sigr:s; Finding: The structure was built in the i 950s and aperated as a caxe facility for approximately twenty five years. In 2005 the owner converted the struchzre to a duplex. The Appiicant's proposed use of t,he building will be simiPar to the previous use -a care facility and function as a goup residence. The existing strucfure wi11 not be expanded beyond its cun•ent footprint. Setbacks, building height, fencing, and landscaping, is expected ta be maintained but will not be changed from the current canfiguration. ~nding: As noted in the above ~ndings, the project site lacks the required number of parking spaces for a canvalescent facility; however, the Applicant states that few of the tenants have vehicles and praximity to transit service are considerations for reduction in the number of spaces required. The ar~y location for off-street parking would be ta create parking within fhe Laurel Street front yard setback of the property. A provision to allow tandem parking in the driveway and for the existing rear carport recagnizes the existing spaces. ConcIusion: The project can comply. Page 3 of 5 D. That fhe establishment, nutintenance or opet^ation of the use applied fpf• will comply with local, state and feder'al health and safety regulations and therefore wrll not ~e dety7mental to the health, safety orgeneral ~.~elfaj°e ofpef~sans residing or working in the surrounding neighborhoods and will not be detrinaental or injurious to the property and iniprove~rzents in the neigliborhood or to the general wel fare vf the communi.t~~ based on the rei~iew° of those factors listed in subseclion C o.f this section; Finding: The Applicant agrees to comply with all of the above requirements and states that the Rogue Valley Recovery Homes basic rules of a drug/alcohol free environment ~s required of each tenant as listed in the pragram rules {see Applicant Exhibit C). The Applicant states that each tenant must abide by all of the program and hous~ rules or said person can be evicted. Conclusion: The Applicant has or intends to meet this criterion. E. ?~7~at any condition.s required f'or app~°oval of the pei~mit a~e deerraed necessary to protect the public health, safet~- and general welfar•e atzd may irtclude; 1.

Suc~t other condatzons thut are found to be necessary to protect tlte public healtla, safet}~ and general welf'ar~e. Finding: The building was constructed in the 1950s, desigrzated as a nonconforming structure in 1988 and convertec~ to a duplex in 2045. A duplex is a permitted use in the R-2 district, and CPMC Section 1 ~.Q8 provides that each dwelling unit of the duplex can be occupied by a family or by five unrelated persons living together for a duplex total of ten (I 0) unrelated people. Page 4 of 5 In considerat~on at this ~ime is the operation of a use within the existing building, and as such, the above conditions are nat applicable to the ~roject with the exception of: E(3}, This subsection provides adjustments to off-street parking Y'equirements in accordance vc~ith the unique characteristics of the praposed use. CPMC Section 17.b4 C (2) requires 1 parking space per two residents for a tatal of eight (8) spaces far this project. The unique characteristics of the proposed use, a convalescent home for persons reca~rering fram addiction, is that the tenant does nat typically have a vehicle. The Applicants states tl~at only approximately 37% of the tenants have vehicles. The following tai~le illusn~ates the required parking under variaus use scenarios1. Based on the praposed use of the property as a convalescent home there is an off-street parking deficiency of four (4} spaces. PROJECT SITE OF~'-STREET PARKING REQUIREMENTS iJse Parking Ratio Required Existing Parking Parking Parking Deficiency Duplex 2: Dwelling Unit 4 4 p Residential Horne 2:Dwelling Unit 4 4 0 Residential Facility 2:Dwelling Unit 4 4 p Convalescent Homes I:Twa Beds 8 4 4 Although not located within the TOD district, the project site is adjacent to the boundary (see map Attachment E}; the TOD district allows a 25% parking reduction when transit services are available. If a parking reduction were allowed for transit ava~lability, then six (6} parking spaces would be required. This would require iwo {2) additional parking spaces. Creating diaganal parking witliin the Laurel 5treet front yard setback of the property would pravide the necessary additional spaces along with a provision to allow tanden~ parking in the driveway and recognition of the existing tandem parking within rear carport. Conclusion: The proposed use is not compliant with Sectian l 7.G4.C (2), and as such, the Commission is authorized to znake adjustments to off-street parking requirements and condition the CUP request. The Applicant shall demanstrate that a~~ adequate number of off-street parking spaces are provided in compliance with CPMC requirements to reduce any potential vehicle parkin~ conflicts that rnay adversely impact adjacent residents. ~ CP1~1C Section 17.b4 C {2) Page 5 of 5 A _ ~'~~HMENT " G~--~ PLANNING COMMISSTON RESOLUTION NQ.
