Community Residential Homes (Group Homes) <br /> p.m. (memorandum dated March 9, 2016) 289-294 <br /> --------------------------- <br /> Commissioner Zorc relayed that residents of Glendale <br /> Lakes are concerned about a planned Community <br /> Residential Home (Group Home) that is moving into <br /> their subdivision. He stated that more of these types <br /> of facilities are being operated locally, and that since <br /> licensing is handled by the State, the local government <br /> does not participate in the screening process. He <br /> reported that the County has been unable to secure a <br /> complete list of Group Homes in the community, and <br /> that one Group Home (not mentioned on the list he <br /> obtained), had an excessive amount of 9-1-1 calls that <br /> were unrelated to fire and ambulance services. <br /> Commissioner Zorc suggested that Representative <br /> Debbie Mayfield be contacted for assistance in <br /> procuring more information from the State. <br /> Board of County Commission Meeting Page 13 <br /> March 15,2016 <br />
