Pursuant to CVMC 19.54.020, housing developments for seniors, as defined in CVMC 19.04.002, may be allowed in any zone except the R-1, R-2, C-V, C-T and industrial zones. Because the residents of such development have dwelling characteristics which differ from those of families and younger persons, it is not appropriate to apply all of the normal zoning standards thereto. Accordingly, pursuant to the processing of a conditional use permit for such developments, as required by CVMC 19.54.020(P), the Planning Commission may make exceptions to the density, off-street parking, minimum unit size, open space, and such other requirements as may be appropriate. The Planning Commission may also adjust required setbacks, building height, and yard areas as appropriate to provide an adequate living environment both within the development and on nearby properties. Any exceptions and adjustments shall be subject to the condition that the development will be available for occupancy by seniors only. (Ord. 3268 § 3, 2013; Ord. 3153 § 2 (Exh. A), 2010; Ord. 1878 § 3, 1979).
