Key Intent
• Create new use and definition for Supportive Housing Community to
accommodate an identified organizational and community need and remove
barriers to the development of such uses in the unincorporated county.
• Reduce subjectivity in the interpretation of the Principal Land Use Table and
provide a direct process for development of this use with appropriate guiding
standards.
• Assign zoning district permissions for the use in the Principal Use Table.
• Draft and adopt supplemental standards consistent with those of a residential
subdivision or community living facility.
