Body
RECOMMENDED ACTION (Motion):
Approval with Conditions.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The applicant requests approval for 16-bed expansion of an existing assisted living memory care facility at 914 South End Rd. The property is zoned R-10 Low-Density Residential, and the expansion requires Conditional Use approval. The application includes Site Plan and Design Review, a Minor Variance for lot coverage, and a Property Line Abandonment between parcels 3100 and 3301.
BACKGROUND:
GLUA-19-00052 consists of the following files:
CU-19-00052: Conditional Use
SP-19-00140: Site Plan and Design Review
VAR-19-00015: Minor Variance
LL-19-00008: Lot Line Abandonment
The proposal is for a 16-bed memory care addition at 914 South End Road that will be physically connected to the existing 38-bed facility sited at 950 South End Rd. This will consist of minor alteration of the existing building by adding walls near the kitchen and back-of-house area as proposed. The lots will be combined through a lot line abandonment. The addition will be one-story and approximately 8000 square feet.
The proposed building footprint would exceed the allowable lot coverage for the R-10 Low Density Residential Zone. The applicant is requesting an administrative variance to increase the total lot coverage by 6.2% from the maximum allowed in the R-10 zone from 40% to 46.2%, a 15.5% increase.
The proposed setbacks for the new addition are as follows: rear – 20’ 1/8”, north side – 10’, front – 20’ ½”.
