ADMINISTRATIVE COMMENTS:

 

This variance request was originally approved by City Council on February 6, 2017.  The approved site plan and variance request have since expired and must be reapproved. The proposed memory care center meets minimum requirements of the City’s Land Development Regulations except for two variances to the screening wall requirement:  a) To allow a tubular steel fence with brick columns and trees in lieu of the required masonry screening wall along the northern property line and b) to allow the existing live screening along the western property line to remain in lieu of a six-foot masonry screening wall. Staff has no objection to these variances.

 

RECOMMENDATION:

 

That the City Council approve the variances as set forth in the caption above.
