Total care facilities in the RM -6 district (901, 911, 971) *Note: at the applicant's request, consideration of this proposal has been temporarily postponed. The Professional Services Advisory Committee (PSAC) has reviewed all of the proposed amendments. The Planning and Zoning Commission has reviewed all of the proposed amendments except the total care facilities in RM -6 (U.S. Retirement Communities, Inc.) proposal. That proposal will need to be considered by the Planning and Zoning Commission at a later date, and will also need to be considered by the Board of County Commissioners at hearings to be set at a later date. The timing of consideration of this amendment will be determined largely by the applicant. To proceed with the review and approval process for the amendments which have already been considered by the Planning and Zoning Commission, the Board must now set dates and times for the required two evening public hearings. ANALYSIS AND ALTERNATIVES: The proposed amendments were considered.by the PSAC at several of its 1994 and 1995 meetings. At its April 13, 1995 meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission considered the proposed amendments, with the exception of the total care facilities proposal. With the exception of- that proposal, proposed amendments are not controversial, though some items could require significant discussion. Because several of the proposed amendments are needed to correct existing problems, it is staff's opinion that the Board should set hearing dates that accommodate timely consideration on all but the Total Care Facilities proposal, which is still "on hold" at the applicant's request. At such time that the total care facilities proposal is moved forward by the applicant, the Board will be asked to set hearing dates to consider that proposal. State requirements mandate seven day notice (newspaper advertisement) prior to the first meeting, five day notice prior to the second meeting, and approximately two weeks between the two meetings. The meetings must be held after 5:00 p.m. Planning staff has coordinated with the Board office staff regarding potential hearing dates in May. One set of hearing dates which would comply with all the state requirements, and appears to accommodate Commissioners' schedules, and would give timely consideration of all the proposals, with the exception of the total care facilities proposal, is as follows: MEETING DATE TIME 1. Monday, May 15, 1995 5:01 p.m. 2. Wednesday, May 31, 1995 5:01 p.m. Staff has tentatively reserved use of the Commission Chambers for these proposed dates. The Board may establish any other dates that meet state requirements and during which the Chambers may be used. 20 MAY 2 1995
