(There also is a Variance request to reduce parking.) Are all the 108 units used as dependent living area ? On page seven , parking requirements Shall be (A) A minimumum of one parking space per dwelling and one space per employee during the peak shift shall be provided. I agree this would be excessive, but a variance to reduce to only 63 with independant units I question. This plan has only 8 Barrier free spaces. The area necessary per code for this plan is 9.4 acres. The proposed site variance request is 6.89 acres.
