Project Description and Background
The subject property is located near the intersection of Northwest 20' Street and Long Avenue and is currently
developed with a church building. The zoning of the site is "A-5" One -Family as "place of worship" is an allowed
land use in any standard zoning district. The applicant is proposing to change the zoning of this property to "CF"
Community Facilities to allow construction of a new shared housing development that would fall under the
category of "Group Home." Below is additional information provided by the applicant about this proposed use:
• The purpose of the group home will be to provide temporary housing for men seeking to grow in their
religious faith and develop leadership skills through discipleship and training by pastors and lay leaders.
The home is designed for up to five men to reside at one time, each with their own bedroom.
The program is designed to be long term supportive housing for individuals who need to establish or
reestablish themselves due to unforeseen crisis, such as loss of job, death of family member etc. This is
not a re-entry program for individuals on parole or probation, and sobriety is a requirement for
participation.
This particular shared living facility will be uniquely designed for men who have a desire to serve in some
capacity of Christian ministry. We provide: spiritual discipleship/Bible Study, financial counseling and
budgeting, job training, Biblical/pastoral counseling (we resource out to licensed counselors), support for
reconciliation of relationships that may have been lost due to crisis, and a safe, loving, family life and
community. Participants learn to be servant leaders in their community.

Development Impact Analysis
Land Use Compatibility
The applicant is proposing to change the zoning of this site from "A-5" One -Family to "CF" Community
Facilities. Surrounding properties are zoned "A-5" One -Family and developed with single-family homes.
The purpose of the "CF" Community Facilities district is to accommodate those institutional and related uses that
are established in response to the health, safety, educational and welfare needs of a neighborhood, community or
major sector of the city. "CF" Community Facilities is an appropriate zoning designation in this location given
that it is currently developed as a church.
The proposed zoning is compatible with surrounding land uses.
Comprehensive Plan Consistency — Northside
The 2021 Comprehensive Plan currently designates the subject property as "Single -Family Residential" on the
Future Land Use Map, which is intended to include zoning districts such as "A-5" One -Family. While "place of
worship" is an allowed land use in any zoning district, the proposed group home use would not be allowed by
right in any of the standard residential zoning districts listed below.

Suburban Residential

112+ acre single-family
3,500+ sq. ft. lot single-family

Based on conformance with the policies stated above, the proposed zoning is not consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan (technical inconsistency). If this zoning change request is approved, staff recommends that
the Future Land Use Map also be updated.
