MSP Rezoning & CUP August 23, 1999 Page 3 act to rezone the property upon failure of the MSP proposal. Staff will consult with the City Attorney to verify the legality of this type of clause, who can address this at the meeting. In addition, the Planning Commission felt very strongly that the language in Section 1109.09 of the Code concerning"Nursing homes and similar group housing" should be amended to read, "Nursing homes and other senior congregate housing." A further change to that section of the Code would be to add an item"I" under Subdivision 2 to add a specific parking requirement to read, "The required parking ratio shall be one stall for each employee on the busiest shift plus one stall per every three beds, or fraction thereof" These changes are addressed in proposed Ordinance 639, attached for your reference. While the adoption of this ordinance is not integral to the approvals requested by the applicant, its adoption would clarify the Code as it relates to this type of use. CUP Discussion: The proposed use addresses a specialized and unique niche in the elderly and infirm care industry, the likes of which are not evident in this immediate area.

Said area shall be fenced and controlled and screened in compliance with Section 1003.08 of this Title. d.
