Sue Crader Ashland Supportive Housing POBox 3536 Ashland, OR 97520 Notice of Final Decision On August 4,2010, the Staff Advisor for the Ashland Planning Division administratively approved your request for the following: PLANNING ACTION: 2010-00791 SUBJECT PROPERTY: 1610 Clark St. APPLICANT: Ashland Supportive Housing, Sue Crader/Judy Beyer DESCRIPTION: A request for a Modification of previous approval for removal of two trees and exception to install sidewalks at 1610 Clark Street. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATION: Single Family Residential; ZONING: R-I-75; ASSESSOR'S MAP #: 39 IE 15AC; TAX LOT: 9100 The Staff Advisor's decision becomes final and is effective on the 13th day after the Notice of Final Decision is mailed, Prior to that date, anyone who was mailed this Notice Of Final Decision may request a reconsideration of the action by the Staff Advisor as set forth in the Ashland Land Use Ordinance (ALUO) 18.1 08.070(B)(2)(b) and/or file an appeal to the Ashland Planning Commission as provided in the ALUO 18.1 08.070(B)(2)( c).

Comprehensive Plan Designation: Single Family Residential, Zoning R-1-7.5 Jackson County Assessor's Map: 39 IE 15AC; Tax Lot: 9100 SUBMITTAL DATE: DEEMED COMPLETE DATE: ST AFF APPROVAL DATE: FINAL DECISION DATE: APPROVAL EXPIRATION DATE: July 1, 2010 July 9,2010 August 4, 2010 August 18, 2010 August 18,2011 DECISION The subject property is located at the southeast comer of the intersection Walker and Clark Streets, previously 720 Walker Street and is zoned R-1-7,5, Single-Family Residential. The lot is approximately 14,800 square feet and has two existing structures on site, making the property non-conforming. Previous approval of the respite home and resource center required curbside sidewalks between the applicant's driveway and the comer of the intersection along the Clark Street frontage. The applicant has submitted a modification request to not install sidewalks due to various prohibitive obstacles that makes sidewalk installation not practical at this time. The applicants have indicated that the proposed resource center would be a less "intense" use than that of the previously approved kindergarten. They state that the resource center will provide a small number of classes per month, perhaps 2 -3 times per month depending on demand, to a very limited number of students, approximately 4 - 8 people, none of which will create adverse effects. Secondly, sidewalk installation within the right-of-way would interfere with four existing cedar trees and utility structures that would have to be removed or relocated. Additionally, a small retaining wall will likely be required due to the grade change between the property and the street, thus adding to the overall expense of the project. Ashland Supportive Housing (ASH) is a small non-profit organization that depends largely on state and federal funding for its programs. Due to the recent budgetary shortcomings, ASH's finances have been dramatically reduced. As a result, ASH did not allocate the funding needed to complete a project of this caliber. Therefore, due to the existing physical constraints and projected intensity of the use, ASH's ability to meet the specific requirements of the street standards chapter will prove to be difficult and a variance is the minimum process necessary to alleviate the difficulty. The applicant is also requesting to remove a Fraxinus Ash and a Plum tree in the rear yard of the parcel. The Ash is located near the west property line (Walker Street side) and interferes with overhead power lines adjacent to the parcel. The tree is located under the canopy or two larger trees, an Elm and Cedar, and removal will be beneficial for the life and longevity of the surrounding trees. The Plum is located in PA # 2010-00791 1610 Clark StlMP Page I a small grove of trees in the comer of the property and is fungus infected and leaning on an adjacent tree. Both trees have been reviewed by an arborist and are recommended to be removed. The Tree Commission has no issue with removal and feels that mitigation is not necessary due to large number of remaining trees on the property. Staff did not receive any public comment on this matter. The criteria for a Tree Removal Permit are described in AMC Chapter 18.61.080, as follows: An applicant for a Tree Removal Permit shall demonstrate that the following criteria are satisfied The Staff Advisor may require an arborist's report to substantiate the criteria for a permit. B. Tree that is Not a Hazard: The City shall issue a tree removal permit for a tree that is not a hazard if the applicant demonstrates all of the following: 1, The tree is proposed for removal in order to permit the application to be consistent with othe,r applicable Ashland Land Use Ordinance requirements and standards. (e.g. other applicable Site Design and Use Standards). The Staff Advisor may require the building footprint of the development to be staked to allow for accurate verification of the permit application,' and 2, Removal of the tree will not have a significant negative impact on erosion, soil stability, flow of surface waters, protection of adjacent trees, or existing windbreaks; and 3. Removal of the tree will not have a significant negative impact on the tree densities, sizes, canopies, and species diversity within 200 feet of the subject property, The City shall grant an exception to this criterion when alternatives to the tree removal have been considered and no reasonable alternative exists to allow the property to be used as permitted in the zone, Nothing in this section shall require that the residential density be reduced below the permitted density allowed by the zone. In making this determination, the City may consider alternative site plans or placement of structures or alternate landscaping designs that would lessen the impact on trees, so long as the alternatives continue to comply with other provisions of the Ashland Land Use Ordinance, 4. The City shall require the applicant to mitigate for the removal of each tree granted approval pursuant to AMC 18,61,084, Such mitigation requirements shall be a condition of approval of the permit. The criteria for an Exception to Street Standards are described in AMC Chapter 18.88.050.F, as follows: A. There is demonstrable difficulty in meeting the specific requirements of this chapter due to a unique or unusual aspect of the site or proposed use of the site; B. The variance will result in equal or superior transportation facilities and connectivity,' C. The variance is the minimum necessary to alleviate the difficulty,' D. The variance is consistent with the stated Purpose and Intent of the Performance Standards Options Chapter P A # 2010-00791 1610 Clark St/MP Page 2 r The application with the attached conditions complies with all applicable City ordinances. Planning Action 2010-00791 is approved with the following conditions. Further, if anyone or more of the following conditions are found to be invalid for any reason whatsoever, then Planning Action 2010- 00791 is denied. The following are the conditions and they are attached to the approval: I 1) That all proposals of the applicant shall be conditions of approval unless otherwise modified here. 2) Applicant will sign in favor of a Local Improvement District for the street segment of Clark Street between Walker and Harmony Streets. 3) All previous conditions of approval not related to the modification request shall remain as conditions of approval for the use. 1fLj1 Mana Harris, Planning Manager Department of Community Development g.3. /0 Date PA# Address/Initials Page 3 Easy peel@ Labels Use Avery@Template 5160@ PA-2010-00791 391E15AC 9100 ASHLAND SUPPORTIVE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY PO BOX 3536 ASHLAND, OR 97520 PA-2010-00791 391E15AB 8500 FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CH/ASH POBOX62 ASHLAND, OR 97520 PA-2010-00791 391E15BA 4800 KUNKEL EILEEN 725 WALKER AVE ASHLAND, OR 97520 PA-201O-00791 391El5AC 8800 MENDELSOHN ALEXANDRA W 740 WALKER AVE ASHLAND, OR 97520 PA-2010-00791 Dan & Tanua Morley 726 Walker Ave Ashland, OR 97520 Etiquettes faciles a peler Utilisez Ie aabarit AVERY@ 5160@ i Bend along line to I expose Pop-Up Edge™ ) ...

We are asking for this modification based on the following reasons: 1. ASH is a small non-profit organization who is able to take on this project only because of grant funding approved by the City. A clear and well researched budget was supplied at the time of our application for funding in which we asked for only what we needed, We do not have extra funds to take on additional costs, which would be extensive, for an added major construction project. This is especially true as ASH will receive a 6% budget cut in funding from the State of Oregon, which is to take effect October 1, 2010 and remain in effect until at least July 2011. The project itself is not expected to return a profit until at least 2014. We simply do not have extra funds for this addition. We have obtained an estimate for sidewalk construction that totals $25,000, This includes: architectural and engineering fees; heavy equipment to restructure the hillside; a retaining wall; concrete pouring; and, rebuilding the fence that would have to be moved to accommodate the sidewalk, 2, The area in which the sidewalk is to be located is a very difficult area to work in due to elevation and existing structures. In order for a sidewalk to be installed, heavy equipment will need to be brought in to restructure the hillside to create a retaining wall, Architectural and engineering services will have to be brought in to create the plans, We will lose a part of our existing - and necessary- fencing. The sidewalk design will have to take into consideration a telephone pole with guide wire, survey pin, and cable box located at the corner. None of this is described on the plans we have already drawn, which means we would have to recreate some of the work we have already paid for. 1 3. The building that will house the Respite Home faces Walker Ave., but the side of that home that has the bedrooms faces Clark St. and it is outside these bedroom windows that the proposed sidewalk would run along. We do not want people to walk in front of these bedroom windows, The Respite Home is meant to be a place of peace, tranquility, and respite. We are concerned that bringing the public so near to people who have particular vulnerabilities to public scrutiny will be a detriment to their time of rest and respite, 4, It has been proposed that we apply for more funding next year to pay for the sidewalk, This would have a detrimental effect on our project, which needs to be fully completed before we open for business. Our opening is scheduled for Spring 2011. Should we be required to install a sidewalk with funds received next year, we would have to close the facility while work is in progress due to the upsetting nature of having heavy construction occurring while people are supposed to be at rest and the dangers of having people with disabilities present at a construction site. The work would have to occur during what we anticipate to be our busy season. The first year of a new business is the hardest and is when most new businesses fail. Having to close at that time could be a breaking point and would certainly lose revenue at a time when that could not be afforded. Over the years the building facing Clark Street has mostly not had a residential use, It has been a dance hall, a meeting hall, a day-care, a five bedroom group home, and most recently was converted back to a classroom set-up for use as a kindergarten, Its proposed use is as a Resource Center, which will provide a meeting hall for support groups and small classes for persons with disabilities, and which is anticipated to have a lower impact than in previous conditionally permitted uses, This is in keeping with both the previous uses and with current activity on Clark Street, which is a C-1 zone on the opposite side of the street. The Presbyterian Church directly across the street has numerous group meetings on a daily basis, and on the same side of Clark Street there is a community park and another church, the Seventh Day Adventists, that runs a weekly food bank, There will be much less traffic generated by the Resource Center than in these other locations on Clark Street. This will provide a smooth transition from the heavy commercial type use of Presbyterian Church across the street through the quiet, residential type use of the Respite Home, to the neighborhood of single family homes on Walker Avenue. The Resource Center will have small sized classes of 4 to 8 people during mostly weekday, daytime hours. Activities will be conducted indoors and in the interior ofthe property during daylight hours. There may be 2 to 3 evening meetings per month, none of which will run late or generate excessive noise, light, or glare, The number of people on site at any given time will be limited to small groups of 4 to 8, with heavy use not being anticipated due to the specialized nature of the services, The facility will be staffed when in use by one or two staff members, Classes will be made available to the developmentally disabled population in Jackson County. Some individual instruction may also be offered, It is anticipated that approximately 4 differing classes will be offered at a time, none running concurrently. Proposed classes may include money management, art, specialized exercise classes, social support groups, gardening, and other classes as developed with community input. Class duration is expected to be from 1 to 3 hours per session. Classes will be scheduled at times when church is not in session. 2 The sidewalk that is currently in front of the Resource Center is felt to be sufficient for the proposed use, Clientele are disabled and as a general rule do not drive, This will generate an increased use of public transportation, Class sizes will be kept small; each will be held 1-3 times per week. We do not expect heavy traffic at any time for this operation. Some classes may even be administered at the facility, but located off site, some group transportation may be arranged, and some transportation may be provided by ASH staff. All this combined will result in traffic patterns having no greater impact than in a single family residence. ~- ~ 5v~ eUCr- /J?'

The two trees we wish to add are #9 Fraxinus Ash and #22 Plum. Both are recommended to be removed by our Arborist, August Schilling of the Village Arborist. The Fraxinus Ash is near the property line and interferes with city power lines. It is also under the canopy of the adjacent #8 Ulmus Elm and against #10 Calocedrus Cedar. Per "Criteria for Issuance of Tree Removal" 18.61.080, under Criteria B: removal of the tree will not have significant negative impact on erosion, soil stability, flow of surface waters, or existing windbreaks. It is in an area of several other trees which will ameliorate these conditions. Safe removal of this tree will have a positive impact on the two adjacent trees. Removal of the tree will have no negative impact on the surrounding trees. It will be the opposite as this tree is fungus infected and pushing against adjacent trees, The Plum tree is in a small grove of trees at the corner of the property and is also fungus infected. The structure is weak and it is leaning against the adjacent #21 Apple tree. As above, removal of the tree will not have a negative impact on erosion, soil stability, flow of surface waters, nor existing windbreaks. The nearby trees will make up for the loss of this tree to the soil. Safe removal of the tree will actually benefit the neighboring #21 Apple and #23 Native Oak as it will no longer be leaning on them and taking their light. There are so many trees on this property that losing this tree will not have a negative impact on any trees within 200 feet. We are not planning on replacing #9 Fraxinus Ash with any other tree. The two large, mature trees near it make this impractical. There is also a walkway which will be repositioned across its roots, We will add a tree to our group home at 290 W, Nevada to satisfy City requirements of replacing trees we remove. Weare willing to replace #22 Plum tree with a dwarf ornamental fruit tree in the same area. Thank you for your generous consideration of this request modification. Judy R.

There are so many trees on this property that losing this tree will not have a negative impact on any trees within 200 feet. Weare not planning on replacing #9 Fraxinus Ash with any other tree. The two large, mature trees near it make this impractical. There is also a walkway which will be repositioned across its roots. We will add a tree to our group home at 290 W. Nevada to satisfy City requirements of replacing trees we remove. Weare willing to replace #22 Plum tree with a dwarf ornamental fruit tree in the same area, Thank you for your generous consideration of this request modification. Judy R.
