HISTORY:
The applicant has proposed several previous projects combining
the expansion of the existing convalescent hospital and construc-
tion of a board and care facility. Previous projects were
C.U.P. 66-5, C.U.P. 66-17, C.U.P. 67-2, C.U.P. 67-7 and C.U.P. 75-4.
C.U.P. 75-4 was approved by the Planning Commission on May 13,
1975. Original plans submitted were for a l74-bed (93-unit)
facility with 38 parking spaces. This development included the
property at 734 Camino Real, but did not include the property
fronting on Baldwin Avenue. The plans were revised and
resubmitted to include the property fronting on Baldwin Avenue.
Said plans contained 106,912 square feet of lot area. This
proposed board and care facility contained 68,245 square feet
with 152 beds (91 units) and 76 parking spaces. The applicant
proposed three 2-story buildings with one additional story
below grade in the north wing. The maximum building height
was 30 feet. The density for this proposed project was 1 bed
per 703 square feet of lot area.

(Total: 31 guest rooms)
Building D is 2 stories and contains 3 guest rooms on the lower
level and a trash and storage area as well as loading space on
the first floor.
Although the application indicates 108 units, according to the
plans, 109 are shown.
HEIGHT AND ELEVATIONS:
The applicant is requesting a building height of 35 feet (3D-foot
building with a 5-foot parapet). The R-3 Code allows 30 feet
maximum building height.
The lower level on Buildings A and B will be located below the
Camino Real grade. The first floor level of Buildings Band
C will be approximately 4 to 7 feet above the Baldwin Avenue
grade.
~ The applicant proposes to design the building similar to the
previous conditional use permit with wing walls along the
Camino Real and Baldwin Avenue elevations. The wing walls as
well as the parapet will encroach more than the 30 inches allowed
by Code into the required setbacks.
The plot plan does not include a porte cochere along Camino
Real. The elevation for C.U.P. 75-4, which was submitted as
part of this application, shows a porte cochere on the Camino
Real elevation (Sheet 5).
PARKING, INGRESS AND EGRESS, AND LANDSCAPING:
95 parking spaces are required by Code (1 parking space per
each two beds).
.
55 parking spaces are provided. Open parking is 10 feet by
20 feet. The covered parking is 9 feet by 20 feet. This is only
58% of that required by Code. 27 spaces will be located under
Buildings Band C; 28 spaces will be located along the southerly
property line.
Ingress will only be from Camino Real. Egress will only be from
the driveway on Baldwin Avenue except for the loading and
delivery parking which may exit onto Camino Real.
A 5-foot wide landscape buffer is proposed along the westerly
and southerly property lines adjacent to the driveway and

There is a 7-foot grade difference between the proposed board and
care facility and the convalescent hospital to the south. Also there
will be a zero to 7 foot grade difference between this facility
and the property to the wes t.
A wall exists along the southerly property line and the applicant
is proposing to construct a 6-foot high block wall along the
westerly property line.

ANALYSIS
The applicant has indicated there would be a maximum
of 10 - 12 employees.
A board and care facility is a permitted use in an R-3 zone.
Section 9275.9 of the conditional use permit procedure allows
"waiver of requirements" and reads:
"Upon a showing by the applicant and a finding by the Planning
Commission that any such regulation is inappropriate or inappli-
cable either to the intended use of the property or to the
property itself or to adjacent property the Planning Commission
may, in granting a conditional use permit, recommend that any
regulations specified in this Division be waived and the City
Council may without the necessity of a public hearing waive
any such regulation."
The applicant is requesting waiver of the following requirements
(see attached application):
1. Section 9275.5.3. Lot area and density requiring 1 bed
per 800 square feet of lot area. Request is for 1 bed per
430 square feet of lot area.
2.
9275.5.4.
2 beds.
Parking requirements. 1 parking space for every
Request is for 1 parking space per 3.44 beds.
C.U.P. 77-11
5
.
If the Planning Commission determines that the proposed project
is designed in a manner which makes the density and parking
regulations inappropriate, such a finding should be made and a
recommendation for a waiver forwarded to the City Council.
It is the Planning Department's opinion that the request for a
35-foot high building will not be detrimental to properties to
the south or west.
The applicant has compared this facility with the retirement
hotel at 753 West Duarte Road. A comparison is as follows:

The applicant has indicated this facility would be operated in a
similar manner as the Arcadia Retirement Hotel. Only ambulatory,
well, aged people are permitted in a board and care facility.
A board and care facility is not licensed for health care.
.
This proposed board and care facility has a greater density
than that of the previous application. (Proposed: 1 guest
room per 746 square feet of lot area; C.V.P. 75-4: 1 guest room
per 1,175 square feet of lot area). This proposal does
exceed the parking and density requirements which were applied to
the retirement hotel. (See above table)
Because of the grade differences in the southerly and westerly
properties, the 5-foot landscape buffers adjacent to these
property lines should be provided at the same grade as adjoining
properties and a retaining wall constructed adjacent to the
proposed parking area and driveway.
C.U.P. 77-11
6
.
Because the architectural renderings do not coincide with the
plot plan, new architectural renderings and a revised pl?t
plan should be submitted to the Planning Commission for Its
review and approval prior to issuance of any building permits.
Prior to issuance of a building permit, a lot consolidation
should be filed and recorded in the County Recorder's Office.
Pursuant to the provisions of the California Environmental
Quality Act, the Planning Department has prepared an intial
study for the proposed project. Said initial study did not
disclose any substantial or potentially substantial adverse
change in any of the physical conditions within the area affected
by the project including land, air, water, minerals, flora, fauna,
ambient noise, and objects of historical or aesthetic signifi-
cance. Therefore, a Negative Declaration has been prepared for
this project.
Before the Planning CommIssion ta~es action on this project,
the Commission should "move to approve and file the Negative
Declaration and find that the project will not have a significant
effect on the environment.
.
RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Department recommends approval of C.U.P. 77-11
subject to the following conditions:
1. Conditions as outlined in the attached report from the
Department of Public Works shall be complied with to the
satisfaction of the Director of Public Works.

The Arcadia Municipal Code now places certw requIrements Oil a so-called" board
and care facility" that make the requirements exactly similar to those of a convalescent
hospital. A convalescent hospital has stringent licensing reriuirement promulgated by
the State Board of Health and others. It must have certain hi<}11 paid health related
personnel, while a board and care facility where no heulth C,L"e may be provided and all
occupants must be ambulatory and self-sufficient is very similar to the so-called
"retirement hotel" hereinbelow mentioned; Therefore applici:mt is requesting that cerLain
requirements of the" board and care" provisions of the existing Arcadia Municipal Code
be waived in accordance with Section 9275.9 of the Code in order to allow the construction
of the facility herein applied for. In further support of the application, applicant makes
the follOWing statements:
The City has recently granted a permit for a so-called" retirement hotel" which could by
a simple application meet all the State and County requiremems for a "board and care"
faeillty. This structure, located at 753 West Duarte Road, has 60 units and is located
on property with a total area of 33,000 square feet. This allows 550 square feet per
unit. Additionally, this retir:ement home has 23 off-street parking spaces, or parking
for 38% of the units.
The propossal herein includes 108 units located on property with a total area of 81,400
square feet, which allows 754 square feet per unit. Additionally, the proposal provides
55 off-street parking spaces or parking for 50% of the units.
.
The off-street parking includes 28, 10 ft. x. 20 ft. spaces in opening parking. and 27,
9 it. x 20 ft. spaces in covered parking. The covered parking is to be specifically
assigned to residents with small-medium and small cars. The parking space size allocated
for these is as large as many cities require as minimum for large cars. No problem is
antiCipated in controlling parking in the assigned covered spaces. Additionally, a
one-way device is planned at the Baldwin exit.
The City Planning staff in the application for Conditional Use Permit 76-6 (C.U .P. 76-6)
dated March 23,1966, made a comprehensive study of unit sizes and parking facilities
in some 17 retirement residences, 11 of which were located in the northeast area and
four of which were located in Los Angeles City. Applicant submit s both the amount of
parking provided herein and the square footage of each unit arc far in excess of the
average found in that survey. That report further states that the State of California
Licensing Board for board and care facilities has no parking requirements - that
whatever the city requires and allows is deemed adequate but that a room must be a
minimum of 100 square feet for one person and 140 square feet for two persons. The
facility proposed herein contemplates that the minimum room size, exclusive of closets
and private baths, shall be 255 feet with approximately 10% of the rooms being larger
than that and that the room size, including closet space and private bath, will be 360 feet.
.
Further, applicant has briefly surveyed the cities of Glendale, Burbank, Pasadena,
Temple City and Azusa and has found the board and care facilities are all allowed in
an R3 or R4 area with a Conditional Use Permit. Because the board and care facility.
requires that the inmates be well and ambulatory, owners providing such services do not
have to have high-priced medical personnel. Board and room rates instead of being some
$30 per day, as is found in convalescent hospitals in this area, are apprOximately $20 per
day, or some 30% less. The requirements of the board and cure facility arc in fact nearly
related to the requirements for the so-called "retirement hotels" which the Planning
Commission has extensively investigated. Therefore, certain requirements relating to
convalescent hospitals should be waived when the actual use and requirement::; for a
board and care facility are found to be substa.ntially different than those required for a
convalescent hospital. .

K. Appropriate Answers to the following questions:
.
1. Will the proposed project result in a substantial alteration
of ground contours and/or alteration of existing drainage
pattern?
ANSWER: Yes, The space in the center of the property is to be
a beautifully landscaped garden area of approximately 92 Ft.'x
135 Ft. The North side of this area will have substantial ex-
cavation in order that the garden level may be on the same level
with the Ground Floor of Building "A". Additional excavation
would be made along the South side of Buildings B & C, so that
parking in the Ground Floor of these buildings is accessible from
the South dr i veway . .
Except for driveway ramps, there would be no obvious alterations
of ground contours from Camino Real and Baldwin Avenues. A long
retaining wall would be necessary along the South side of this
property. This is a common property line with the Arcadia Con-
valescent Hospital, which is also owned by the applicant. Drain-
age of the parking area and any overflow of garden area noted
above would be into yard drains, that would flow to sump and be
pumped into the sewer system. Other drainage would be nominal.
2. Will the proposed project result in a change of groundwater quality
and/or quantity?
. ANSWER: Yes - Quantity No - Quality: Since uncovered parking
areas for 28 cars are being provided (in addition to the covered
parking areas), this along with the driveways, would add to the
grourid water, since no seepage would take place in these areas.
However, this project would not add any more water than an R-3
residential development, as areas provided take into consideration
that only a small percentage of the residents will be driving.
5. Will the proposed project result in a substantial increase in de-
mand for municipal services and/or energy consumption?
ANSWER: Yes and No:
.
Paramedics - Yes, more than average.
Fire - Le~s than average.
Police - Less than average.
Water - Less than average, because lawn areas will be under care-
ful control, older persons take less baths, laundry will
be done centrally.
Electrical - Less, as there will be many group social activities,
and living units will be used less than usual. Group
watching of T.V., etc.
Natural Gas - There will be fewer than average outside walls and
roof areas, thus, less heat loss. There will be
central cooking and laundry.
