CUP No. 2019-19-MOD-1 & VAR No. 2019-2-MOD-1 – 360 Adult Day Care (1800 North Bush Street) January 27, 2025 Page 2 4 7 5 8 DISCUSSION Project Description 360 Adult Day Care occupies the first floor of a two-story, 10,800-square-foot office building, addressed as 1800 N. Bush Street. The second floor of the office building is currently occupied by professional office spaces not associated or operated by the adult day care. In addition to the proposed increase in participants, the applicant plans to reprogram the second-floor office spaces as medical offices thereby impacting the Code- required parking for the building. This change of use would create a parking deficit, based on the required parking for the combined mix-of-uses per the SAMC. Lastly, no physical changes are proposed for the adult day care center itself (interior or exterior); as it is designed to safely accommodate the additional participants within the building’s designated occupancy limit of 199 individuals. The adult day care includes an administrator and medical staff, who work outside the center’s operating hours, a Program Director staffed by nursing personnel, a Social Worker, an Activity Coordinator, and Program Aides. These team members also function as drivers, responsible for picking up and dropping off participants throughout the day. Additional staff includes a Physical Therapist, Occupational Therapist, Registered Dietitian, Speech Therapist, and Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), who provide services onsite as needed. The total number of staff onsite at any given time fluctuates from eight to 23 staff members, likewise the number of participants from 176 to 191 but at no point would the total occupancy exceed 199 occupants. The center operates daily from 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., with two four-hour program blocks for participants. Therefore, it is anticipated that the maximum capacity of 199 will not be reached at any one time, because the main number of participants for each time block can vary from 80-120. No changes to these hours are proposed as part of the Applicant’s request. Transportation to the adult day care center is provided by caregivers, public transportation, or the center’s vans, which accommodate 7 to 15 passengers. During their time at the center, participants receive meals, engage in various social and physical activities, such as chair exercises, puzzles, games, and arts and crafts. On occasion, the participants may also receive medical treatment from the medical professionals occupying the building’s second floor, who partner with the center. While the existing site is in good condition, the Applicant proposes additional improvements as part of this request. These include upgrading the existing trash enclosure to comply with current City standards by adjusting its size and adding a roof cover. Additionally, the Applicant will record an easement benefitting the City that would
