amount of exterior yard area and the outdoor recreation area. Neighborhood greenbelt and park space may be used to satisfy the outdoor recreation area requirement if these alternative areas are located in immediate proximity to the facility, are appropriate for recreation, and proper insurance coverage has been obtained for them. (Section 9-1030.3(b)[2]) All outdoor recreation areas must be enclosed by walls or fences not less than six (6) feet in height. (Development Title Section 9-1030.3[c]) Should existing fencing be less than six (6) feet in height, the Review Authority may approve such alternative fencing if, upon review of adjacent uses, supervision ratios, and facility floor plans, it is determined that the existing fence height will not be detrimental to the health, safety, or welfare of facility users. The required fence must be shown on the revised site plan. Public Service Access. The applicant must develop and implement a public service access plan providing or arranging for transportation, as necessary, for group care residents or children. (Development Title Section 9-1030.3[f])The plan must specifically describe the means by which residents will gain access to bus and other public transportation routes, shopping locations, medical, dental, or other health care facilities, and government offices. This plan must be approved by the Community Development Department prior to issuance of a building permit or establishment of the use. Siting Criteria. Site approval applicants should clearly identify industrial operations within 1,000 feet of any social care services they propose to establish. (Development Title Section 9-1030.3[h]) (Ord. 3675). This information must be indicated on the revised site plan. Parking The project proposes group care for up to 24 residents. The site plan indicates seven parking spaces. Development Title Table 9-1015.3(a) requires 0.33 parking spaces per bed for the Use Type Group Care-Large. Therefore, the required number of parking spaces is 8. The applicant has requested that the parking requirement be reduced to seven due to the actual amount of traffic generated by the use. Development Title Section 9-1015.9 permits a modification of the required amount of parking. Based upon this, the parking requirement may be reduced to seven spaces, of which one must be handicapped accessible (Development Title Section 9- 1015.10). The site plan does show seven parking spaces and therefore meets the requirement. Access & Circulation Development Title Section 9-1015.5(h)(1) states, "Access driveways shall have a width of no less than twenty-five (25) feet for two-way aisles and sixteen (16) feet for one-way aisles." The submitted site plan shows a two-way driveway from Section Avenue to access the provided parking. However, the Site Plan does not show the aisle width of the driveway. The proposed project shall meet the Development Title's minimum requirement for access. Circulation patterns for ingress and egress and driveway and aisle widths must be shown on the revised site plan. Use Permit Application No. PA-0800122 is tentatively scheduled to be heard before the Planning Commission on June 5, 2008. A revised site plan must be submitted to the Community Development Department by May 22, 2008 with the following revisions: 2
