#2019-033207) approval to update the conceptual development plan, which
depicted the assisted living facing south adjacent to E. Hill Park Street.
VI. STAFF ANALYSIS
The applicant is requesting to relocate the assisted living facility from facing north adjacent to
E. Amity Road to facing south adjacent to E. Hill Park Street.
The modification to the site plan is desired to orient the assisted living facility away from the
busy arterial street so it can face the YMCA and Hillsdale Park. Orienting the building away
from the arterial roadway provides safer access to the facility and improves integration between
the facility and the adjacent open space as desired by the MU-N FLUM designation.
The Unified Development Code (UDC) (11-5B-6G) authorizes the Director to approve or
deny specified minor modifications, provided such modifications were not the subject of
review during the original public hearing and will not adversely impact adjacent properties.
Such minor modifications include, but are not limited to the following:
1. Minor relocation of dwelling units or building pads for practical reasons such as road
alignment, topography or access.
2. Increase in the building square footage, not to exceed twenty percent (20%), if the
parking and landscaping requirements are met.
Staff has reviewed the site plan provided with this application and has determined the site area,
parking and landscape areas are consistent with the recorded development agreement and the
conditions of approval. However, upon further review of the site plan, staff discovered that the
building square footage also increased slightly (1,455 sq. ft. expansion) from what was
approved by the conditional use permit. Since this is allowed at the director’s level as noted
above, staff is supportive of the increase in square footage.
Therefore, staff supports the modifications to the approved plans, as proposed by the
applicant. The applicant must obtain certificate of zoning compliance (CZC) and design
review (DES) approval of the revised plans shown in Exhibits A.3 & A.4.
