VA 72-38 In considering variance application HOWARD LAWSON to construct a residential care facility for elderly persons in the R 1 District at 555 Owens Drive, Councilman Evans stated that he believed the apartments are substandard; that a reduction in parking requirements may be warranted in some cases, but that this plan reduces parking by 60%; that the application states the project will be limited to elderly persons, and he asked whether or not this is legal. The Planning Director stated that there is no law that limits the use of the project; that this is the proposal of the developer. Councilman Patterson asked for further information concerning experience with this type of development in terms of other units. The Director of Planning stated that a stud~ had been made; that in ~arlier prbjects the developers had provided parking far in excess of what was needed; that it is felt now that the space can be better utilized as open area rather than to be put into parking areas. Councilman Herrin suggested that at some future time there might be a change of use of the development, and asked if the City could still control the facility. The Attorney stated that there is a condition in the variance which requires review in two years which would act as a restriction; and that the final condition is the agreement dated April 3 between Mr. Lawson and the City. In response to questions from Councilman Evans, the Planning Director stated that a park fee will be collected at the time building is commenced; that smaller units are permitted in building for the elderly, since there will not be families.
