CUP No. 2019-19-MOD-1 & VAR No. 2019-2-MOD-1 – 360 Adult Day Care (1800 North Bush Street) January 27, 2025 Page 4 4 7 5 8 Project Background The site was originally developed in 1989 with a two-story 10,800-square-foot building that has since been occupied by various professional and medical office tenants. On June 24, 2019, the Planning Commission approved CUP No. 2019-19 and Variance No. 2019- 02, which permit the operation of an adult day care center on the first floor of the building, accommodating up to 40 participants, and a parking deficit of twenty-seven percent (27%) which equates to 11 spaces. The adult day care center is still in operation and is now proposing an expansion to accommodate additional participants and staff, as the existing unit has the capacity to support additional individuals, in order to meet the increasing need for care and maintain the business in operation. Throughout its operation, the site, including the adult day care center, has not received any complaints related to noise, parking, or circulation concerns. Project Analysis Conditional Use Permit Conditional Use Permit (CUP) requests are governed by Section 41-638 of the SAMC. Modifications to existing CUPs may be granted when it can be demonstrated that the proposed project meets the findings contained in Section 41-638(a)(1)(i)-(v). If the required findings can be made, it is appropriate to grant the CUP; however, if the findings cannot be made, the request must be denied. Pursuant to Section 41-313.5 of the SAMC, adult day care facilities located in the P (Professional) zoning district are subject to discretionary review and approval of a CUP by the Planning Commission Based on the project’s operational details, staff recommends approval of the Applicant’s request for a CUP modification. The proposed project responds to a growing community need by expanding the center’s capacity to provide services to a larger segment of the aging population and their families who live or work in the surrounding area. The proposed increase in participant capacity is not expected to result in the maximum on-site occupancy of 199 individuals at any given time, as previously described. Rather, the modification would provide the adult day center with operational flexibility to extend its services beyond the current limit of 40 participants. The existing limit has primarily been constrained by the availability of on-site parking, and the proposed modification seeks to alleviate this limitation without adversely impacting the surrounding area. Moreover, the expanded participant capacity is not anticipated to generate activities that would disrupt the existing character of the neighborhood. The center’s daily operations will remain consistent with current practices, which include offering two four-hour programming blocks throughout the day. During each block, participants are provided with meals and engage in various structured social and physical activities designed to enhance their well-
