Purpose & Explanation
Please see attached memorandum
Proposed amendment to the Land Development Code to remove Assisted Living, Continuing Care Retirement Communities, and Institutional Residential from allowed uses within the commercial focused districts. Removing these use categories from commercial/industrial districts would preserve these areas for businesses development. Additionally, focusing these uses within District 3 would be more central to the community and closer to emergency services.

Planning Commission conducted a public hearing and competed recommendation on October 13, 2025 with the applicable uses limited to District 2 and District 3 with the additional requirements that all such uses be within a one mile radius of the EMS center (map attached). Note: only a small portion of D2 would be located within the one mile radius.
