11. Utilities: The existing development currently utilizes City <br />water and sewer services. This addition will not affect the <br />water and wastewater services. <br />12. Concurrency: Since this expansion is accessory to the <br />residential center and will not intensify the project <br />"density", no concurrency certificate is required in relation <br />to the dining room addition. <br />13. Specific Land Use Criteria: <br />A. The use shall satisfy all applicable regulations of the <br />State of Florida and Indian River County as currently <br />exist. <br />B. The approving body shall determine that the proposed use <br />is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood in terms <br />of the intensity of land use. As a measure of land use <br />intensity, the expected number of persons per acre of the <br />proposed use is equivalent to the number of persons per <br />acre allowed within the respective zoning district. The <br />number of persons per acre within the zoning district can <br />be derived by multiplying the density (d.u./acre) by <br />household size estimates for that structure type. For <br />the purposes of this section, the following household <br />size estimates shall apply: single family homes, 2.5 <br />personsper dwelling unit; multiple family, 2.0 persons <br />per dwelling unit. The persons per acre intensity of the <br />group home shall not exceed one and one-half times the <br />intensity of adjacent residential zoning district(s). <br />C. To avoid unsafe or unhealthy conditions that may be <br />produced by the overcrowding of persons living in these <br />facilities, a minimum floor area per person shall be <br />required. Floor area requirements shall be measured from <br />interior walls of all rooms including closet space. <br />1. Total interior living space. A minimum of two <br />hundred (200) square feet of interior living space <br />shall be provided per facility resident. Interior <br />living space shall include sleeping space and all <br />other interior space accessible on a regular basis <br />to all facility residents. <br />2. Minimum sleeping areas. A minimum of eighty (80), <br />square feet shall be provided in each sleeping <br />space for single occupancy. A minimum of sixty <br />(60) square feet of sleeping space shall be <br />provided for each bed in a sleeping space for <br />multiple occupancy. <br />3. Bathroom facilities. A full bathroom with toilet, <br />sink and tub or shower shall be provided for each <br />five residents. <br />D. To avoid an undue concentration of group care facilities <br />in one area, all such facilities shall be located at <br />least one thousand two hundred (1,200) feet apart, <br />measured from property line to property line. <br />E. If located in a single-family area, the home shall have <br />the appearance of a single-family home. Structural <br />alterations or designs shall be of such a nature as to <br />preserve the residential character of the building. <br />24 <br />
