Re: Zoning File No. 8364 - Zoning Text Changes: Day Care,
Community Residential Facilities , and Residential Group Homes
Dear Council Members: .
Copies of three resolutions approved by the Planning Corrmission are enclosed.
The first resolution , Number 79-85, recommends changes to sections of the
Zoning Ordinance which deal with day care. These revisions are in response
to changes in state legislation which limit municipal zoning authority over
day care facilities licensed for ten or feu��er persons.
The second resolution , Number 79-86, recorranends changes to the Zoning
Ordinance as it relates to Community Residential Facilities and Residential
Group Homes. The recommended revisions are contained in a report accompanying
the Resolution.
The final resolution, (Vumber 79-88, recommends that City Council go on record
in support of �increas�d communication beicween other goverr��nental ager�c�es that
license and fund residential facilities and neighbors of those facilities. It
also recorrgnends that licensing agencies notify the City when a residential
facility changes size, location , purpose, or licensing. This recommendation
recognizes the concerns of Saint Paul residents about the admTnistration and
program of residential facilities, as well as location and zoning and recomenends
a City position.
The Current Planning and Zoning Committee held a public meeting and a public
hearing in August on the proposed revisions. The Committee approved them at
their November, 1979 meeting. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on
December 14, 1979, and approved a11 three recorranendations at that time.
These actions are being transmitted separately to Mayor Latimer. If you �r your
staff have any questions about the proposed revisions , we would be happy to meet
with you.
Sincerely,

ZONING TEXT CNANGES RELATED TO RESIDENTIAL GROUP
HOMES AND COhMUNITY 'RESIDENTIAL FACILITIES
Carmunity residential facilities are currently permitted
uses subject to special conditions in most residential
zoning districts. These facilities ma�y serve children ,
or people who are mentally ill , mentally retarded, �
physically handicapped, chemically dependent, or who
have been charged with or convlcted of a crime.
Experience with the Zoning Ordinance, changes in State
. legislation, and input fran neighborhood residents and
• group home operators indicate that revisions are appro-
priate. The proposed changes include:
1 . Modifying the defini�tions to reflect related
legislation and regulations and to make the
types of facilities covered by the definitions
more explicit; . .
2. Using licensed capacity to determine the size
of facilities;
� 3. Permitting all facilities licensed for six or
fewer persons in districts zoned R-1 through R-4
and permitting facilities licensed for seven or
more persons in districts zoned for multi-family
or business use subject tb special conditions;
4. Increasing the minimum lot size required for
facilities licensed for more than six persons,
subject to modification by the Planning
Comnission;
` 5. Allowing facilities to request modification from
the distance requirements; and
6. Establishing off-street parking requirements
subject to modification.

� � 1 .0 INTRODUCTION
������
1 .1 HISTORY For more than a decade, federa and state po icy has
encouraged residential programs located in established
neighborhoods as an alternative to care or treatment in
large institutions. Comnunity residential facilities
include programs for people who are mentally retarded or
physically handicapped, people who are being treated or
are recovering from mental illness or chemical dependency
and people who have been charged with or found guilty of
a crime and would benefit from an alternative to probation,
parole, or incarceration.
As corrpnunity residential facilities developed, the need
for regulation became apparent. The Minnesota State
Legislature gave responsibility for programnatic �licens-
ing to the State Departments of Public Welfare and
Corrections. Authority for regulating the location,
spacing and density of comnunity residential facilities
remained with municipalities as part of their traditional
zoning authority.
In 1975, the Saint Paul Zoning Ordinance was amended to
include specific recognition of comnunity residential
facilities. The Ordinance defined two types of facilities
in recognition of state legislation at the time. These
facilities were identified as special condition uses to
be allowed in all residential districts except High-Density,
High-Rise Districts as long as the specified conditions
for the district were met.
In 1976, state legislation was passed which defined
residential facilities under the jurisdiction of the
Minnesota Department of Public Welfare (DPW) and estab-
lished DPW's licensing responsibilities. This Ac� called
the Public Welfare Licensing Act, continues to grant
municipalities the authority to zone comnunity residential
facilities licensed by DPW. However, limits on that
authority are established through the Act.
Separate legislation was also passed requiring the Minnesota
Department of Corrections to license all residential facil-
ities used by the correctional system by the Fall of 1980.
No limits to municipal zoning authority are included in
this legislation.
In May 26, 1978, the Saint Paul Planning Comnission passed
Resolution Number 78-14 to initiate a 40-acre study on
Comnunity Residential Facilities. The need for the study,
and potential amendments to the Saint Paul Zoning Ordi-
nance, was based on the changes in state legislation and
Saint Paul 's experiences in apply the definitions and
conditions of the Zoning Ordinance.
1
.2 PROBLE S Comnunity res� ent a aci t es ave een controvers a
for a variety of reasons. Although programmatic and
funding concerns are beyond the purview of zoning, zoning
can address location, spacing, and density within the
limits of state legislation.
Experience with the Zoning Ordinance, changes in state
legislation, and concerns expressed by neighborhood resi-
dents and facility operators , indicate that a number of
revisions are necessary or appropriate. These include
clarification of the definitions to relate more directly
to state legislation, modification of conditions that are
inconsistent with state legislation, and additional
conditions related to off-street parking and minimum lot
size requirements.
.3 PURPOSE e purpose o t e zon ng text c anges is to ma e t e
Ordinance consistent with state legislation and to modify
the conditions for use to reflect concerns expressed by
neighborhood residents and operators of comnunity
residential facilities.
.4 SCOPE e propose revisions re ect �nput rom citizens an
group home operators and current state legislation. A1-
though the revisions reflect current information and
legislation, it is possible that additional revisions
may be required in the future.
.5 METHOD LOGY On May 6, 9 8, the P anning Comniss on passed
Resolution 78-14 which initiated a 40-acre study on
comnunity residential facilities. As part of the study,
Planning Comnission members and staff participated in a
full day workshop sponsored by the Association of St. Paul
Communities and the West Side Citizen Organization. The
workshop brought together regulators , providers and
neighbors of comnunity residential facilities.
Two additional meetings, devoted specifically to revisions
in St. Paul 's Zoning Ordinance, were held. These meetings
led to specific recommendations for revisions from both
providers and citizens. These recommendations form the
basis for many of the proposed changes.
The Current Planning and Zoning Comnittee held a public
meeting on proposed changes on August 2, 1979 and a
public hearing on August 23, 1979. In addition, the City
Attorney was asked to give a legal opinion on specific
questions related to Saint Paul 's authority to attach
special conditions to correnunity residential facilities.

Interpretation and understanding of the Zoning Ordinance
are enhanced by using terms and definitions which are
consistent with related legislation. Generally, these
facilities are located in buildings designed for resi-
dential family use. Rooming houses contain guest rooms
where lodging is provided for compensation to six or more
people. Boarding houses provide meals for five or more
people for periods of one week or more for compensation.
Rooming and boarding houses provide both of these services.

DISCUSSION
This definition combines and expands upon the two
definitions currently used in the Zoning Ordinance. Two
separate terms and definitions for very similar concepts
is not necessary. Citizen groups specifically recomnended
that definitions be based on state definitions. In
addition , use of terms which reflect relevant legislation
and regulations enhances interpretation and understanding
of the Zoning Ordinance.
The definition attempts to clearly identify comnunity
residential facilities for zoning purposes. Although not
all comnunity residential facilities require programmatic
licensing, those that do are specifically identified by
their license. To the extent possible, the definition in-
corporates language from related state legislation for
consistency.
Only the facilities under "a" are covered by the Public
Welfare Licensing Act. Saint Paul 's definition is broader
than that of the Public Welfare Licensing Act because
there are many facilities which serve as community resi-
dential programs but do not require DPW licensing and,
therefore, are not covered by the Act.
5
,�
Specific examples of such facilities include correctional
facilities which will be licensed by the Minnesota Depart-
ment of Corrections. Both "b" and "d" cover these
facilities.
In addition, there are a number of facilities within
Saint Paul which are not licensed by either state agency
but which are essentially community residential facilities.
Halfway houses for people recovering from chemical depend-
ency are one example. Facilities for people who are
mentally ill are the other notable case. Although they
are under DPW's licensing jurisdiction, a moratorium has
been placed on requiring licensure because of complexities
associated with continuing federal funding assistance to
the people needing care.

recommended that definitions be based on state definitions.

Comnunity residential facilities have a capacity associated

This licensed capacity includes only those people residing
in the facility to receive a service, not the operator,
staff, or their children.

DISCUSSION
All facilities for six or fewer should be permitted in
single-family residential districts . However, in addition
to the licensed capacity of a facility, staff inembers often
reside at the facility and additional staff may, depending
on the facility, work shifts. When a facility serves more
than six residents, the resulting density is not consistent
with the intent of one-family districts which are designed
to be low �density.

SCUSSIO
This section allows Community Residential Facilities ta
locate in RT-1 , RT-2, RM-1 and RM-2 Residential Districts
subject to the conditions listed. Specific reasons for
changes in conditions are as follows :
C(2) Community Residential Facilities have a capacity associated
with their licensure. Using this capacity to determine
facility size is a more consistent method than determination
on a case by case basis by zoning (see section 2.5).
The limit of sixteen is chosen to be consistent with state
legislation which specifies that programs licensed by the
Department of Public Welfare for seven through sixteen
persons are permitted multi-family uses, although the
municipality may attach special conditions. This change
increases the basic capacity allowed most facilities from
fourteen to sixteen. It decreases the basic capacity
allowed facilities for persons who are mentally retarded
or physically handicapped from twenty to sixteen. In
addition to making Saint Paul 's regulations consistent
with State legislative criteria, this change treats
Community Residential Facilities equitably.
Few structures have been specifically designed to serve as
Community Residential Facilities. Occasionally, existing
apartment buildings or nursing homes can be converted to
Comnunity Residential Facilities or a new structure is
built. Although choice of any numerical cut-off is , in
part, arbitrary, the ability of providers to find suitable
facilities must be weighed against the impact of a higher
density on the neighborhood. While access to larger
facilities should be allowed, the higher density requires
10
, � �
` , � �
r�
,�'�� .1 �
Y
more stringent conditions if the intent of the Zoning
Ordinance is to be protected.
C(3) Under the current provisions of the Zoning Ordinance, a
Community Residential Facility could house from fourteen
� to twenty persons in any existing building on a lot which
is only 5,000 square feet. The proposed change will
require lots varying from 5,300 square feet for seven
residents to 8,000 square feet for 16 residents, thus
helping to assure adequate lot size given density without
placing an excessive burden on providers seeking new
facilities.
Under the existing Ordinance, Community Residential
Facilities licensed for more than sixteen persons can
also be located on a 5,000 square foot lot. Facilities
of this size should be required to meet all regulations
for new buildings in the zoning district to protect the
intent of the Ordinance.
C(4) The proposed changes result from combining the definitions
of Comnunity Residential Facilities and� Residential Group
Homes and state legislative mandates for facilities
licensed by the Minnesota Department of Public Welfare.
Because there are situations where unique physical char-
acteristics, such as a bluff ]ine or highway divide
facilities, this requirement should be subject to
modification under the provisions of 64.209(d) .
C(5) Increased vehicular traffic and congestion on residential
streets can result from the combination of facility resi-
dents and staff who work at the facility. On the other
hand, some Community Residential Facilities do not allow
. residents to have access to vehicles or serve people who
cannot drive. In those instances, upon verification,
parking requirements should be subject to modification
to prevent undue hardship.
C(6) This condition is included to clarify the fact that per-
mission to conduct the special condition use is contingent
on each of these factors and that if any of them change,
permission to conduct the use must be reviewed and may
also change.

DISCUSS ON
This second revision, 7.2, is necessary to be in conformance
with the Public Welfare Licensing Act. This legislation
mandates that all Comnunity Residential Facilities licensed
by the Minnesota Department of Public Welfare for seven or
more persons be permitted uses in multi-family residential
districts, although the municipality may attach special
conditions. This provision should apply to all Community
Residential Facilities if the Ordinance is to be equitable.
Similarly, equitable treatment would allow smaller
facilities in RM-3 districts as well .

DISCUSSION
This revision would allow Comnunity Residential Facilities
to locate in B-1 , B-2 and B-3 districts , subject to the
same provisions that apply to facilities in Residential
Districts and to mixed commercial and residential uses
in the business district under consideration. From a
comnunity standpoint, this revision would provide greater
opportunity for providers to find suitable locations
without increasing density patterns unduly. Basically,
it allows Comnunity Residential Facilities to be treated
as residential uses in Business Districts as long as the
conditions which apply to Facilities and the conditions
which apply to mixed use are; met.

14.0 ADDITIONAL RECOMMENOATIONS " I. '
. '
In addition to the proposed revisions to the Zoning
Ordinance, the following recommendations were made
during the course of the 40 Acre Study. The following
sections present those directed toward the City and in
some instances, suggest additional action. They are
not proposed amendments for the Ordinance itself.
. DE U N E ecause istrict counci s meet mont y, ays notice to
the affected district was recommended. Representatives
of the Comnunity Residential Facilities indicate that,
in most instances , this will not have an adverse effect
on their ability to find and obtain suitable locations.
Although there are occasions where the requirement may
make the time-line for providers tight, the requirement
is not excessive.
E EDD
Planning Comnission approval of a resolution requiring
notice of application for special condition use for
Comnunity Residential Facilities to be mailed 45 days
prior to the public hearing before the Current Planning
and Zoning Comnittee.
This notice will be mailed to the district council president
and comnunity organ�izer as soon as application for special
condition use for a Comnunity Residential Facility is re-
ceived. Although the date of the public hearing on the
application will not be known at that time, it would be
scheduled for at least 45 days from the date of mailing. "
All other notices will comply with current requirements
and be sent to representatives of the district affected
as well as property owners within 350 feet of the zoning
lot in question.
.2 NON-RESIDENT L ten, t e concerns expressed by a ne ghborhood are the
TREATMENT FACILITIES result of a combination of programs in one neighborhood.
Specific examples include drug treatment drop-in centers
in close proximity to Community Residential Facilities.
It is not clear whether or not there is a problem. However,
concerns have been expressed consistently enough over time
to warrant further study.
PROPOSED ACTION
The Zoning staff should identify the types of non-
residential programs which are in question and, if appro-
priate, request a 40-acre study to amend the Zoning
Ordinance in order to determine the impact on neighborhoods
and how they can be alleviated.
22
.
. ,
r `
14.3 PROGRAM MONITORING Throughout the study, concerns were expressed which
relate to features of Comnunity Residential Facilities
which are not appropriately addressed by zoning. A major
concern is proper monitoring of programs once they have
received their initial license and funding.
Facilities are monitored at the State level on a regular
basis. In addition, the County reviews funding contracts
annually. Frequently, however, neighbors are not offered
a formal opportunity to provide input into these reviews.
Yet, neighbors may be able to provide insights into the
facility for those licensing and funding Comnunity
Residential Facilities.
REC M ENDED C N
Planning Commission approval of a resolution asking the
Saint Paul City Council to go on record supporting in-
creased communication between other governmental agencies
who license and fund Comnunity Residential Facilities and
the residents of the area surrounding facilities.
14.4 EQUAL DISTRIBUTION A special condition limiting the population of Corrmunity
OF CO�MUNITY RESIDENTIAL Residential Facilities to 0.5% of the total citizen par-
FACII_iTIES ticipation dis.trict population and placing an upper limit
on the number of facilities in each district based on
total population was recomnended. The intent of this
recomnendation is to reduce concentration of facilities.
� The need for requirements beyond the distance requirements
currently included in the Ordinance has not been documented.
In addition, the data requirements associated with this
recomnendation would make it very difficult to implement.
Representatives of District 4 asked that they be put on
record as recommending these requirements , although the
difficulties in implementing it were accepted.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Continued monitoring of Community Residential Facilities
for evidence of concentration.

Residential facilities are currently permitted uses
subject to special conditions in most residential
zaning districts. These facilities may serve children
. or people who are mentally ill , mentally retarded,
physically handicapped, chemically dependent, or who

priate. The proposed changes include: �
1. Modification of definitions to conform with related
legislation and regulations and to make the types
of facilities covered by the definitions more
fl explicit;
� 2. Using licensed capacity to determine the size of
0� facilities;
� 3. °'ng all facilities licensed for six
� fewer pers ' districts zoned R- ugh R-4
� and permitting faci ' for seven or
� nrore persons in di zon RT-2, RM-1
�\ and RM- to special conditions;
.�. � 4. Increasing the minimum lot size required for
• facilities licensed for more than six persons,
subject to variance;
.
� ( 5. Allowing facilities to apply for a variance from
� distance requirements; and
6. Establishing off-street parking requirefients

1 .0 INTRODUCTION
,
I
� .1 HISTORY For more than a decade, federal and state policy has
i encouraged residential programs located in established
neighborhoods as an alternative to care or treatment in
large institutions. Comnunity residential facilities
, include programs for people who are mentally retarded or
�� physically handicapped, people who are being treated or
are recovering from mental illness or chemical dependency
' and people who have been charged with or found guilty of
i a crime and would benefit from an alternative to probation,
j parole, or incarceration.
iAs community residential facilities developed, the need
for regulation became apparent. The Minnesota State
; Legislature gave responsibility for programmatic licens-
' ' ing to the State Departments of Public Welfare and
' � Corrections. Authority for regulating the location,
,� spacing and density of comnunity residential facilities
remained with municipalities as part of their traditional
zoning authority.
In 1975, the Saint Paul Zoning Ordinance was amended to
include specific recognition of comnunity residential
�� facilities. The Ordinance defined two types of facilities
in recognition of state legislation at the time. These
i facilities were identified as special condition uses to
' be allowed in all residential districts except High-Density,
I High-Rise Districts as long as the specified conditions
for the district were met.
�� In 1976, state legislation was passed which defined
residential facilities under the jurisdiction of the
Minnesota Department of Public Welfare (DPW) and estab-
' lish.ed DPW's licensing responsibilities. This Act, called
'i the Public Welfare Licensing Act, continues to grant
� municipalities the authority to zone comnunity residential
facilities licensed by DPW. However, limits on that
' authority are established through the Act.
i
�
Separate legislation was also passed requiring the Minnesota
Oepartment of Corrections to license all residential facil-
, ities used b the correction
al s
Y ystem by the Fall of 1980.
No limits to municipal zoning authority are included in
.
this legislation.
In Ma 2
y 6, 1978, the Sa�nt Paul Planning Commission passed
Resolution Number 78-14 to initiate a 40-acre study on
Comnunit Residential Facilit'
Y ies. The need for t
he stud
and potential amendments to the Saint Paul Zoning Ordi- y�
nance, was based on the changes in state legislation and
Saint Paul 's experiences in apply the definitions and
conditions of the Zoning Ordinance.
1
. PROBLEMS Community resi entia aci �ties ave been controversia
for a variety of reasons. Although programmatic and
funding concerns are beyond the purview of zoning, zoning
can address location, spacing, and density within the
limits of state legislation.
Experience with the Zoning Ordinance, changes in state
legislation, and concerns expressed by neighborhood resi-
dents and facility operators , indicate that a number of
revisions are necessary or appropriate. These include
clarification of the definitions to relate more directly
to state legislation, modification of conditions that are
inconsistent with state legislation, and additional
. conditions related to off-street parking and minimum lot
size requirements.
. UR 0 E e purpose o t e zoning text c anges is to ma e t e
Ordinance consistent with state legislation and to modify
the conditions for use to reflect concerns expressed by
neighborhood residents and operators of community
residential facilities.
. SCOPE he proposed revisions re ect �nput rom cit�zens an
group hpme operators and current state legislation. A1-
though the revisions reflect current information and
legislation, it is possible that additional revisions
may be required in the future.
.5 ME HODOL On May 6, 9 8, the P anning Comnission passe
Resolution 78-14 which initiated a 40-acre study on
comnunity residential facilities. As part of the study,
Planning Comnission members and staff participated in a
full day workshop sponsored by the Association of St. Paul
Communities and the West Side Citizen Organization. The
workshop brought together regulators , providers and
neighbors of community residential facilities.
Two additional meetings, devoted specifically to revisions
in St. Paul 's Zoning Ordinance, were held. These meetings
led to specific recomnendations for revisions from both
providers and citizens. These recommendations form the
basis for many of the proposed changes.
The Current Planning and Zoning Comnittee held a public
meeting on proposed changes on August 2, 1979 and a
public hearing on August 23, 1979. In addition, the City
Attorney was asked to give a legal opinion on specific
questions related to Saint Paul 's authority to attach
special conditions to community residential facilities.

� Interpretation and understanding of the Zoning Ordinance
are enhanced by using terms and definitions which are
� consistent with related legislation. Generally, these
facilities are located in buildings designed for resi-
dential family use. Rooming houses contain guest rooms
where lodging is provided for compensation to six or more
people. Boarding houses provide meals for five or more
people for periods of one week or more for compensation.
Rooming and boarding houses provide both of these services.

This definition combines and expands upon the two
y�a�, �,ar�s���6l� Gh. definitions currently used in the Zoning Ordinance. Two
� • ' � ��(,� separate terms and definitions for very similar concepts
"h ►� . -t �� is not necessary. Citizen groups specifically recomnended
i��`�- �n-� C.l.S that definitions be based on state definitions. In
-F-- • addition , use of terms which reflect relevant legislation
�"4 �� `��� and regulations enhances interpretation and understanding
� ' � of the Zoning Ordinance.
�� � ��tl �c�.�•
The definition attempts to clearly identify comnunity
residential facilities for zoning purposes. Although not
all comnunity residential facilities require programmatic
licensing, those that do are specifically identified by
their license. To the extent possible, the definition in-
corporates language from related state legislation for
consistency.
Only the facilities under "a" are covered by the Public
Welfare Licensing Act. Saint Paul 's definition is broader
than that of the Public Welfare Licensing Act because
there are many facilities which serve as community resi-
dential programs but do not require DPW licensing and,
therefore, are not covered by the Act.
5
I ���'�'���
Specific examples of such facilities include correctional
, facilities which will be licensed by the Minnesota Depart-
', ment of Corrections. Both "b" and "d" cover these
: facilities.
In addition, there are a number of facilities within
' Saint Paul which are not licensed by either state agency
' but which are essentially corrmunity residential facilities.
, Halfway houses for people recovering from chemical depend-
ency are one example. Facilities for people who are
mentally ill are the other notable case. Although they
are under DPW's licensing jurisdiction, a moratorium has
been placed on requiring licensure because of complexities
associated with continuing federal funding assistance to
�i the people needing care.

DISCUSSION
Two separate terms and definitions for very similar
concepts is not necessary. Citizen groups specifically
recomnended that definitions be based on state definitions.
In addition, use of definitions and terms which are re-
lated to relevant legislation and regulations enhances
interpretation and understanding of the Zoning Ordinance.

DISCUSSION
Comnunity residential facilities have a capacity associated
with their licensure. Using licensed capacity to determine
the facility's size is straightforward and consistent.
This licensed capacity includes only those people residing
in the facility to receive a service, not the operator,
staff, or their children.

DISC S N
This section allows Corrmunity Residential Facilities to
locate in RT-1 , RT-2, RM-1 and RM-2 Residential Districts
subject to the conditions listed. Specific reasons for
�hanges in conditions arP .,� follows :
C(2) Comnunity Residential Fac��lities have a capacity associated
with their licensure. Usir�,q this capacity to determine
facilitysize is a more cuns�stent method than determination
on a case by case basis by zoning (see section 2.5).
The limit of sixteen is chosen to be consistent with state
legislation which specifies that programs licensed by the
Department of Pub�ic W4lfare for seven through sixteen
persons are permi.,te� r��u�ti-fami ly uses, al though the
municipality may attach ��ecial conditions. This change
increases the basic capa�:i*� allowed most facilities from
fourteen to sixteen. It dF�:reases the basic capacity
allowed facilities for perscns who are mentally retarded
or physically handicapped from twenty to sixteen. In
addition to making Saint Paul 's regulations consistent
with S tate legislative criteria, this change treats
Cor�nunity Residential Facilities equitably.
Few structures have been specifically designed to serve as
Community R�sidential Facilities. Occasionally, existing
apartment i�u�ldings or nursing homes can be converted to
Comnunity i�esidential Facilities or a new structure is
built. Although ch��ice of any numerical cut-off is , in
part, arbitrary, tht� ability of providers to find suitable
facilities must be r,�aighed against the impact of a higher
density on the neighborhood. While access to larger
facilities should be allowed, the higher density requires
10
more stringent conditions if the intent of the Zoning
Ordinance is to be protected.
C(3) Under the current provisions of the Zoning Ordinance, a
Community Residential Facility could house from fourteen
to twenty persons in any existing building on a lot which
is only 5,000 square feet. The proposed change will
require lots varying from 5,300 square feet for seven
residents to 8,000 square feet for 16 residents, thus
helping to assure adequate lot siie given density without
placing an excessive burden on providers seeking new
facilities.
Under the existing Ordinance, Community Residential
Facilities licensed for more than sixteen persons can
also be located on a 5,000 square foot lot. Facilities
of this size should be required to meet all regulations
� for new buildings in the zoning district to protect the
intent of the Ordinance.
� � � C(4) The proposed changes result from combining the definitions
of Comnunity Residential Facilities and� Residential Group
Homes and state legislative mandates for facilities
licensed by the Minnesota Department of Public Welfare.
Because there are situations where unique physical char-
acteristics , such as a bluff line or highway divide
facilities, this requirement should be subject to
modification under the provisions of 64.209(d) .
C(5) Increas�d vehicular traffic and congestion on residential
streets can result from the combination of facility resi-
dents and staff who work at the facility. On the other
hand, some Comnunity Residential Facilities do not allow
� . residents to have access to vehicles or serve people who
cannot drive. In those instances, upon verification,
parking requirements should be subject to modification
to prevent undue hardship.
C(6) This condition is included to clarify the fact that per-
mission to conduct the special condition use is contingent
on each of these factors and that if any of them change,
permission to conduct the use must be reviewed and ma�y
also change.

� 14.0 ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS
In addition to the proposed revisions to the Zoning
Ordinance, the following recomnendations were made
during the course of the 40 Acre Study. The following
sections present those directed toward the City and in
some instances, suggest additional action. They are
not proposed amendments for the Ordinance itself.
. D ecause istrict counci s meet mont y, ays notice to
the affected district was recommended. Representatives
of the Comnunity Residential Facilities indicate that,
in most instances , this will not have an adverse effect
on their ability to find and obtain suitable locations.
Although there are occasions where the requirement may
make the time-line for providers tight, the requirement
is not excessive.
C E EDD
Planning Comnission approval of a resolution requiring
notice of application for special condition use for
Comnunity Residential Facilities to be mailed 45 days
prior to the public hearing before the Current Planning
and Zoning Comnittee.
This notice will be mailed to the district council president
and comnunity organizer as soon as application for special
condition use for a Comnunity Residential Facility is re-
ceived.' Although the date of the public hearing on the
application will not be known at that time, it would be
scheduled for at least 45 days from the date of mailing.
� All other notices will comply with current requirements
and be sent to representatives of the district affected
as well as property owners within 350 feet of the zoning
lot in question.
. N N- D N ten, the concerns expresse by a ne g bor oo are t e
TREATMENT FACILITIES result of a combination of programs in one neighborhood�.
Specific examples include drug treatment drop-in centers
in close proximity to Comnunity Residential Facilities.
It is not clear whether or not there is a problem. However,
concerns have been expressed consistently enough over time
to warrant further study.
PROPOSED ACTI N
The Zoning staff should identify the types of non-
residential programs which are in question and, if appro-
priate, request a 40-acre study to amend the Zoning
Ordinance in order to determine the impact on neighborhoods
and how they can be alleviated.
22
4.3 PROGRAM MONITORING Throughout the study, concerns were expressed which
relate to features of Comnunity Residential Facilities
which are not appropriately addressed by zoning. A major
concern is proper monitoring of programs once they have
received their initial license and funding.
Facilities are monitored at the State level on a regular
basis. In addition, the County reviews funding contracts
annually. Frequently, however, neighbors are not offered
a formal opportunity to provide input into these reviews.
Yet, neighbors may be able to provide insights into the
facility for those licensing and funding Comnunity
Residential Facilities.
REC ENDED C N
Planning Comnission approval of a resolution asking the
Saint Paul City Council to go on record supporting in-
creased communication between other governmental agencies
who license and fund Comnunity, Residential Facilities and
the residents of the area surrounding facilities.
. EQ L D S RI ION A specia condition imit ng the popu ation of Comnunity
OF COMMUNITY RESIDENTIAL Residential Facilities to 0.5� of the total citizen par-
FACILITIES ticipa�ion district population and placing an upper limit
on the number of facilities in each district based on
total population was recomnended. The intent of this
recomnendation is to reduce concentration of facilities.
• The fieed for requirements beyond the distance requirements
currently included in the Ordinance has not been documented.
• In addition, the data requirements associated with this
recomnendation would make it very difficult to implement.
Representatives of District 4 asked that they be put on
record as recomnending these requirements, although the
difficulties in implementing it were accepted.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Continued monitoring of Community Residential Facilities
for evidence of concentration.

ZONING TEXT CHANGES RELATED TO RESIDENTIAI, GROUP
HOMES AND COt�IUNITY RESIDENTIAL FACILITIES
Comnunity residential facilities are currently permitted
uses subject to special conditions in most residential
� zoning districts. These facilities may serve children
or people who are mentally ill , mentally retarded, �
physica1ly handicapped, chemically dependent, or who
have been charged with or convicted of a crime.
Experience with the Zoning �^dinance, changes in State
. legislation, and input from neighborhood residents and
group home operators indicate that revisions are appro-
priate. The proposed changes include:
1 . Modifying the definitions to reflect related
legislation and regulations and to make the
types of facilities covered by the definitions �
more explicit; . .
2. Using licensed capacity to determine the size
of facilities;
� 3. Permitting all facilities licensed for six or
fewer persons in districts zoned R-1 through R-4
and permitting facilities licensed for seven or
more persons in districts zoned for �multi-family
or business use subject tb special conditions;
4. Increasing the minimum lot size required for
facilities licensed for more than six persons,
subject to modification by the Planning
Comnission;
# 5. qllowing facilities to request modification from �
the distance requirements; and
6. Establishing off-street parking requirerr�nts
subject to modification. .

1 .0 INTRODUCTION ��L� � �
1 .1 HISTORY For more than a ecade, federa and state po icy has
encouraged residential programs located in established
neighborhoods as an alternative to care or treatment in
large institutions. Comnunity residential facilities
include programs for people who are mentally retarded or
physically handicapped, people who are being treated or
are recovering from mental illness or chemical dependency
and people who have been charged with or found guilty of
a crime and would benefit from an alternative to probation,
parole, or incarceration.
As co�nunity residential facilities developed, the need
for regulation became apparent. The Minnesota State
Legislature gave responsibility for programnatic licens-
ing to the State Departments of Public Welfare and
Corrections. Authority for regulating the location,
spacing and density of community residential facilities
remained with municipalities as part of their traditional
ioning authority.
In 1975, the Saint Paul Zoning Ordinance was amended to
include specific recognition of community residential
facilities. The Ordinance defined two types of facilities
in recognition of state legislation at the time. These
facilities were identified as special condition uses to
be allowed in all residential districts except High-Density,
High-Rise Districts as long as the specified conditions
for the district were met.
In 1976, state legislation was passed which defined
residential facilities under the jurisdiction of the
Minnesota Department of Public Welfare (DPW) and estab-
lished DPW's licensing responsibilities. This Act, called
the Public Welfare Licensing Act, continues to grant
municipalities the authority to zone comnunity residential
facilities licensed by DPW. However, limits on that
authority are established through the Act.
Separate legislation was also passed requiring the Minnesota
Department of Corrections to license all residential facil-
ities used by the correctional system by the Fall of 1980.
No limits to municipal zoning authority are included in
this legislation.
In May 26, 1978, the Saint Paul Planning Comnission passed
Resolution Number 78-14 to initiate a 40-acre study on
Comnunity Residential Facilities. The need for the study,
and potential amendments to the Saint Paul Zoning Ordi-
nance, was based on the changes in state legislation and
Saint Pau� 's experiences in apply the definitions and
conditions of the Zoning Ordinance.

_ = ; .
.2 PROBLEM Comnunity resi ent a ac ities ave een controversia
for a variety of reasons. Although programmatic and
funding concerns are beyond the purview of zoning, zoning
can address location, spacing, and density within the
limits of state legislation.
Experience with the Zoning Ordinance, changes in state
legislation, and concerns expressed by neighborhood resi-
dents and facility operators , indicate that a number of
revisions are necessary or appropriate. These include
clarification of the definitions to relate more directly
to state legislation, modification of conditions that are
inconsistent with state legislation, and additional
� conditions related to off-street parking and minimum lot
size requirements.
.3 PURPOSE e purpose o t e zoning text c anges s to ma e the
Ordinance consistent with state legislation and to modify
the conditions for use to reflect concerns expressed by
neighborhood residents and operators of comnunity
residential facilities.
. SCOPE e propose revisions re ect �nput rom cit zens an
group home operators and current state legislation. A1-
though the revisions reflect current information and
legislation, it is possible that additional revisions
may be required in the future.
.5 METHODOLOGY On May 26, 9 , the P ann ng Comnission passe
Resolution 78-14 which initiated a 40-acre study on
community residential facilities. As part of the study,
Planning Comnission members and staff participated in a
full day workshop sponsored by the Association of St. Paul
Corrununities and the West Side Citizen Organization. The
workshop brought together regulators , providers and
neighbors of community residential facilities.
Two additional meetings, devoted specifically to revisions
in St. Paul 's Zoning Ordinance, were held. These meetings
led to specific recomnendations for revisions from both
providers and citizens. These recorr�nendations form the
basis for many of the proposed changes.
The Current Planning and Zoning Comnittee held a public
meeting on proposed changes on August 2, 1979 and a
public hearing on August 23, 1979. In addition, the City
Attorney was asked to give a legal opinion on specific
questions related to Saint Paul 's authority to attach
� special conditions to community residential facilities.

Interpretation and understanding of the Zoning Ordinance
are enhanced by using terms and definitions which are
consistent with r.elated legislation. Generally, these
facilities are located in buildings designed for resi-
dential family use. Rooming houses contain guest rooms
where lodging is provided for compensation to six or more
people. Boarding houses provide meals for five or more
people for periods of one week or more for compensation.
Rooming and boarding houses provide both of these services.

DISCUSSION
This definition combines and expands upon the two
definitions currently used in the Zoning Ordinance. Two
separate terms and definitions for very similar concepts
is not necessary. Citizen groups specifically recommended
that definitions be based on state definitions . In
addition , use of terms which reflect relevant legislation
and regulations enhances interpretation and understanding
of the Zoning Ordinance.
The definition attempts to clearly identify comnunity
residential facilities for zoning purposes. Although not
all comnunity residential facilities require programmatic
licensing, those that do are specifically identified by
their license. To the extent possible, the definition in-
corporates language from related state legislation for
consistency.
Only the facilities under "a" are covered by the Public
Welfare Licensing Act. Saint Paul 's definition is broader
than that of the Public Welfare Licensing Act because
there are many facilities which serve as community resi-
dential programs but do not require DPW licensing and,
therefore, are not covered by the Act.
5
Specific examples of such facilities include correctional
facilities which will be licensed by the Minnesota Depart-
ment of Corrections. Both "b" and "d" cover these
facilities.
In addition, there are a number of facilities within
` Saint Paul which are not licensed by either state agency
but which are essentially comnunity residential facilities.
Halfway houses for people recovering from chemical depend-
ency are one example. Facilities for people who are
mentally ill are the other notable case. Although they
are under DPW's licensing jurisdiction, a moratorium has
been placed on requ�ring licensure because of complexities
associated with continuing federal funding assistance to
the people needing care.

DISCUSSION
All facilities for six or fewer should be permitted in
single-family residential districts . However, in addition
to the licensed capacity of a facility, staff inembers often
reside at the facility and additional staff may, depending
on the facility, work shifts. When a facility serves more
than six residents, the resulting density is not consistent
with the intent of one-family districts which are designed
to be 1ow density.

change•
D S SION
This section allows Comnunity Residential Facilities to
locate in RT-1 , RT-2, RM-1 and RM-2 Residential Districts
subject to the conditions listed. Specific reasons for
changes in conditions are as follows :
C(2) Comnunity Residential Facilities have a capacity associated
with their licensure. Using this capacity to determine
facility size is a more consistent method than determination
on a case by case basis by zoning (see section 2.5).
The limit of sixteen is chosen to be consistent with state
legislation which specifies that programs licensed by the
Department of Public Welfare for seven through sixteen
persons are permitted multi-family uses, although the
municipality may attach special conditions. This change
increases the basic capacity allowed most facilities from
fourteen to sixteen. It decreases the basic capacity
allowed facilities for persons who are mentally retarded
or physically handicapped from twenty to sixteen. In
addition to making Saint Paul 's regulations consistent
with S tate legislative criteria, this change treats
Community Residential Facilities equitably.
Few structures have been specifically designed to serve as
Comnunity Residential Facilities. Occasionally, existing
apartment buildings or nursing homes can be converted to
Comnunity Residential Facilities or a new structure is
built. Although choice of any numerical cut-off is , in
part, arbitrary, the ability of providers to find suitable
facilities must be weighed against the impact of a higher
density on the neighborhood. While access to larger
facilities should be allowed, the higher density requires
� 10
<
, ;�'����
more stringent conditions if the intent of the Zoning
Ordinance is to be protected.
C(3) Under the current provisions of the Zoning Ordinance, a
Community Residential Facility could house from fourteen
to twenty persons in any existing bui]ding on a lot which
is only 5,000 square feet. The proposed change will
require lots varying from 5,300 square feet for seven
residents to 8,000 square feet for 16 residents, thus
helping to assure adequate lot size given density without
placing an excessive burden on providers seeking new
facilities.
Under the existing Ordinance, Community Residential
Facilities licensed for more than sixteen persons can
also be located on a 5,000 square foot lot. Facilities
of this size should be required to meet all regulations
for new buildings in the zoning district to protect the
intent of�the Ordinance.
C(4) The proposed changes result from combining the definitions
of Comnunity Residential Facilities and� Residential Group
Homes and state legislative mandates for facilities
licensed by the Minnesota Department of Public Welfare.
Because there are situations where unique physical char-
acteristics, such as a bluff line or highway divide
facilities, this requirement should be subject to
modification under the provisions of 64.209(d) .
C(5) Increased vehicular traffic and congestion on residential
streets can result from the combination of facility resi-
dents and staff who work at the facility. On the other
hand, some Comnunity Residential Facilities do not allow
. residents to have access to vehicles or serve people who
cannot drive. In those instances, upon verification,
parking requirements should be subject to modification
to prevent undue hardship.
C(6) This condition is included to clarify the fact that per-
mission to conduct the special condition use is contingent
on each of these factors and that if any of them change,
permission to conduct the use must be reviewed and may
also change.

DISCUSSI N
This second revision, 7.2, is necessary to be in conformance
with the Public Welfare Licensing Act. This legislation
mandates that all Comnunity Residential Facilities licensed
by the Minnesota Department of Public Welfare for seven or
more persons be permitted uses in multi-family residential
districts, although the municipality may attach special
conditions. This provision should apply to all Comnunity
Residential Facilities if the Ordinance is to be equitable.
Similarly, equitable treatment would allow smaller
facilities in RM-3 districts as well .

This revision would allow Community Residential Facilities
to locate in B-1 , B-2 and B-3 districts , subject to the
same provisions that apply to facilities in Residential
Districts and to mixed comnercial and residential uses
in the business district under consideration. From a
community standpoint, this revision would provide greater
opportunity for providers to find suitable locations
without increasing density patterns unduly. Basically,
it allows Cortmunity Residential Facilities to be treated
as residential uses in Business Districts as long as the
conditions which apply to Facilities and the conditions
which apply to mixed use are: met.

14.0 ADDITIONAL RECON�IENDATIONS • .
"' �
In addition to the proposed revisions to the Zoning
Ordinance, the following recomnendations were made
during the course of the 40 Acre Study. The following
sections present those directed toward the City and in
some instances, suggest additional action. They are
not proposed amendments for the Ordinance itself.
. ADEQU E N ecause istrict counc� s meet mont y, ays notice to
the affected district was recommended. Representatives
of the Community Residential Facilities indicate that,
in most instances , this will not have an adverse effect
on their ability to find and obtain suitable locations .
Although there are occasions where the requirement may
make the time-line for providers tight, the requirement
is not excessive.
C R D
Planning Comnission approval of a resolution requiring
notice of application for special condition use for
Comnunity Residential Facilities to be mailed 45 days
prior to the public hearing before the Current Planning
and Zoning Comnittee.
This notice will be mailed to the district council president
and comnunity organ�izer as soon as application for special
condition use for a Comnunity Residential Facility is re-
ceived. Although the date of the public hearing on the
application will not be known at that time, it would be
scheduled for at least 45 days from the date of mailing.
All other notices will comply with current requirements
and be sent to representatives of the district affected
as well as property owners within 350 feet of the zoning
lot in question.
.2 NON-RE IDENT L ten, the concerns expresse by a neighborhood are the
TREATMENT FACILITIES result of a combination of programs in one neighborhood.
Specific examples include drug treatment drop-in centers
in close proximity to Conmunity Residential Facilities.
It is not clear whether or not there is a problem. Ho�vever,
concerns have been expressed consistently enough over time
to warrant further study.
PROPOSED ACTION
The Zoning staff should identify the types of non-
residential programs which are in question and, if appro-
priate, request a 40-acre study to amend the Zoning
Ordinance in order to determine the impact on neighborhoods
and how they can be alleviated.
22
r
14.3 PROGRAM MONITORING Throughout the study, concerns were expressed which
relate to features of Comnunity Residential Facilities
which are not appropriately addressed by zoning. A major
concern is proper monitoring of programs once they have
received their initial license and funding.
Facilities are monitored at the State level on a regular
basis. In addition, the County reviews funding contracts
annually. Frequently, however, neighbors are not offered
a formal opportunity to provide input into these reviews.
Yet, neighbors may be able to provide insights into the
facility for those licensing and funding Corrmunity
Residential Facilities.
REC MENDED C N
Planning Comnission approval of a resolution asking the
Saint Paul City Council to go on record supporting in-
creased cor�nunication between other governmental agencies
who license and fund Community Residential Facilities and
the residents of the area surrounding facilities.
14.4 EQUAL DISTRIBUTION A specia condition limiting the population of Corrmunity
OF COMMUNITY RESIDENTIAL Residential Facilities to 0.5� of the total citiien par-
FACILiTIES ticipation dis.trict population and placing an upper limit
on the number of facilities in each district based on
total population was recomnended. The intent of this
recomnendation is to reduce concentration of facilities.
� The need for requirements beyond the distance requirements
currently included in the Ordinance has not been documented.
In addition, the data requirements associated with this
recomnendation would make it very difficult to implement.
Representatives of District 4 asked that they be put on
record as recomnending these requirements , although the
difficulties in implementing it were accepted.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Continued monitoring of Community Residential Facilities
for evidence of concentration.

Re: Zoning File No. 8364 - Zoning Text Changes: Day Care,
Community Residential Facilities, and Residential Group Homes
. Dear Counci� Members :
Copies or three resolutions approved by the Planning Corrmission are enclosed.
The first resolution , Number 79-85, recommends changes to sections of the
Zoning Ordinance which deal with day care. These revisions are in response •
to changes in state legislation which limit municipal zoning authority over
day care facilities licensed for ten or fev�rer persans.
The secor�d resolution, Pr"umber 79-86, recorranends changes to the Zoning
Ordinance as it relates to Community Residential Facilities and Residential
Group Nomes. The recommended revisions are contained in a report accompanying
the Resolution.
The final resolution , Number 79-88, recommends that City Council go on record
in support of' increased corr�nunication between �iher governmental agencies that
license and fund residential facilities and neighbors of those facilities. It
also recorr�nends that licensing agencies notify the City when a residential
facility changes size, location , purpose, or licensing. This recorr�nendation
recognizes the concerns of Saint Paul residents about the administration and
program of residential facilities, as well as location and zoning and recorr�ends
a City position.
The Current Planning and Zoning Committee held a public meeting and a public
hearing in August on the proposed revisions. The Committee approved them at
their November, 1979 meeting. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on
December 14, 1979, and approved all three recomanendations at that time.
These actions are being transmitted separately to Mayor Latimer. If you or your
staff have any questions about the proposed revisions , we would be happy to meet
with you.
Sincerely,
:--. �

ZONING TEXT CHANGES RELATED TO RESIDENTIAL GROUP

` uses subject to special conditions in most residential
' - zoning districts. These facilities may serve children .� � . . '
� or people who are mentally ill , mentally retarded,
physically handicapped, chemically dependent, or who �`�
; have been charged with or convicted of a crime.
;
; Experience with the Zoning Ordinance, changes in State
> legislation, and input from neighborhood residents and �'
� group home operators indicate that revisions are appro- � °�
� priate. The proposed changes include: �_'�
. . _k-y.. -' `
; 1 . Modifying the definitions to reflect related ' ` �"' �
' legislation and regulations and to make the N
� types of facilities covered by the definitions
more explicit; � �
� �
� 2. Using licensed capacity to determine the size �
of facilities; f�
; .
3. Permitting all facilities licensed for six or
fewer persons in districts zoned R-1 through R-4 '
and permitting facilities licensed for seven or -
more persons in districts zoned for multi-family �
' or business use subject to special conditions; �
4. Increasing the minimum lot size required for
facilities licensed for more than six persons,
subject to modification by the Planning
Commission;
9 . . . .. ��. .
5. Allowing facilities to request modification from
the distance requirements; and
i
6. Establishing off-street parking requirements
� subject to modification.

Re: Zoning File No. 8364 - Zoning Text Changes: Day Care,
Community Residential Facilities , and Residential Group Homes
Dear Council Members:
Copies of three resolutions approved by the Planning Comnission are enclosed.
The first resolution, Number 79-85, recommends changes to sections of the
Zoning Ordinance which deal with day care. These revisions are in response
to changes in state legislation which limit municipal zoning authority over
day care facilities licensed for ten or fewer persons.
The second resolution, Number 79-86, recomnends changes to the Zoning
Ordinance as it relates to Community Residential Facilities and Residential
Group Homes. The recommended revisions are contained in a report accompanying
the Resolution.
The final resolution, Number 79-88, recommends that City Council go on record
in support of increased comnunication between other governmental agencies that '
license and fund residential facilities and neighbors of those facilities. It
also recomnends that licensing agencies notify the City when a residential •
facility changes size, location, purpose, or licensing. This recomnendation
recognizes the concerns of Saint Paul residents about the administration and
program of residential facilities, as well as location and zoning and recomnends
a City position.
The Current Planning and Zoning Committee held a public meeting and a public
hearing in August on the proposed revisions. The Committee approved them at
their November, 1979 meeting. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on
December 14, 1979, and approved all three recomnendations at that time.
These actions are being transmitted separately to Mayor Latimer. If you or your
staff have any questions about the proposed revisions , we would be happy to meet
with you.
Sincerely,

ZONING TEXT CHANGES RELATED TO RESIDENTIAL GROUP
HOMES AND CON�IUNITY RESIDENTIAL FACILITIES
Caimunity residential facilities are currently permitted
uses sub�ect to special conditions in most residential
zoning districts. These facilizies may serve children
or people who are mentally ill , mentally retarded,
physically handicapped, chemically dependent, or who
have been charged with or convicted of a crime.
Experience with the Zoning Ordinance, changes in State
. legislation, and input from neighborhood residents and
� group home operators indicate that revisions are appro-
priate. The proposed changes include:
1 . Modifying the defini'tions to reflect related
legislation and regulations and to make the
types of facilitfes covered by the definitions
more explicit; . .
2. Using licensed capacity to determine the size
of facilities;
� 3. Permitting all facilities licensed for six or
fewer persons in districts zoned R-1 through R-4
' and permitting facilities licensed for seven or
more persons in districts zoned for �multi-family
or business use subject tb special conditions;
4. Increasing the minimum lot size required for
facilities licensed for more than six persons,
subject to modification by the Planning
Commission;
5. qllowing facilities to request modification from �
the distance requir�nents; and
6. Establjshing off-street parking requirements
sub�ect to modification.

1 .1 HISTORY For more than a decade, federa and state po icy has
encouraged residential programs located in established
neighborhoods as an alternative to care or treatment in
large institutions. Comnunity residential facilities
include programs for people who are mentally retarded or
physically handicapped, people who are being treated or
are recovering from mental illness or chemical dependency
and people who have been charged with or found guilty of
a crime and would benefit from an alternative to probation,
parole, or incarceration.
As comnunity residential facilities developed, the need
for regulation became apparent. The Minnesota State
Legislature gave responsibility for programnatic licens-
ing to the State Departments of Public Welfare and
Corrections. Authority for regulating the location,
spacing and density of comnunity residential facilities
remained with municipalities as part of their traditional
zoning authority.
In 1975, the Saint Paul Zoning Ordinance was amended to
include specific recognition of comnunity residential
facilities. The Ordinance defined two types of facilities
in recognition of state legislation at the time. These
facilities were identified as special condition uses to
be allowed in all residential districts except High-Density,
High-Rise Districts as long as the specified conditions
for the district were met.
In 1976, state legislation was passed which defined
residential facilities under the jurisdiction of the
Minnesota Department of Public Welfare (OPW) and estab-
lished DPW's licensing responsibilities. This Act, called
the Public Welfare Licensing Act, continues to grant
municipalities the authority to zone comnunity residential
facilities licensed by DPW. However, limits on that
authority are established through the Act.
Separate legislation was also passed requiring the Minnesota
Department of Corrections to license all residential facil-
ities used by the correctional system by the Fall of 1980.
No limits to municipal zoning authority are included in
this legislation.
In May 26, 1978, the Saint Paul Planning Commission passed
Resolution Number 78-14 to initiate a 40-acre study on
Comnunity Residential Facilities. The need for the study,
and potential amendments to the Saint Paul Zoning Ordi-
nance, was based on the changes in state legislation and
Saint Paul 's experiences in apply the definitions and
conditions of the Zoning Ordinance.
1
.2 PROBLEMS Comnunity resi ent a aci t es ave een controversia
for a variety of reasons. Although programmatic and
funding concerns are beyond the purview of zoning, zoning
can address location, spacing, and density within the
limits of state legislation.
Experience with the Zoning Ordinance, changes in state
legislation, and concerns expressed by neighborhood resi-
dents and facility operators , indicate that a number of
revisions are necessary or appropriate. These include
clarification of the definitions to relate more directly
to state legislation, modification of conditions that are
inconsistent with state legislation, and additional
conditions related to off-street parking and minimum lot
size requirements.
.3 PURPO E e purpose o t e zoning text c anges is to ma e t e
' Ordinance consistent with state legislation and to modify
the conditions for use to reflect concerns expressed by
neighborhood residents and operators of comnunity
residential facilities.
.4 SCOPE e propose revisions re ect input rom cit�zens an
group home operators and current state legislation. A1-
though the revisions reflect current information and
legislation, it is possible that additional revisions
may be required in the future.
.5 METHODOLOGY On May 26, 8, the P anning Comnission passe
Resolution 78-14 which initiated a 40-acre study on
comnunity residential facilities. As part of the study,
Planning Comnission members and staff participated in a
full day workshop sponsored by the Association of St. Paul
Communities and the West Side Citizen Organization. The
workshop brought together regulators , providers and
neighbors of community residential facilities.
Two additional meetings, devoted specifically to revisions
in St. Paul 's Zoning Ordinance, were held. These meetings
led to specific recomnendations for revisions from both
providers and citizens. These recommendations form the
basis for many of the proposed changes.
' The Current Planning and Zoning Comnittee held a public
meeting on proposed changes on August 2, 1979 and a
public hearing on August 23, 1979. In addition, the City
Attorney was asked to give a legal opinion on specific
questions related to Saint Paul 's authority to attach
special condi�ions to comnunity residential facilities.

Interpretation and understanding of the Zoning Ordinance
are enhanced by using terms and definitions which are
consistent with related legislation. Generally, these
facilities are located in buildings designed for resi-
dential family use. Rooming houses contain guest rooms
where lodging is provided for compensation to six or more
people. Boarding houses provide meals for five or more
people for periods of one week or more for compensation.
Rooming and boarding houses provide both of these services.

DISCUS ION
This definition combines and expands upon the two
definitions currently used in the Zoning Ordinance. Two
separate terms and definitions for very similar concepts
is not necessary. Citizen groups specifically recommended
that definitions be based on state definitions . In
addition , use of terms which reflect relevant legislation
and regulations enhances interpretation and understanding
of the Zoning Ordinance.
The definition attempts to clearly identify comnunity
residential facilities for zoning purposes. Although not
all comnunity residential facilities require programmatic
licensing, those that do are specifically identified by
their license. To the extent possible, the definition in-
corporates language from related state legislation for
consistency.
Only the facilities under "a" are covered by the Public
Welfare Licensing Act. Saint Paul 's definition is broader
than that of the Public Welfare Licensing Act because
there are many facilities which serve as community resi-
dential programs but do not require DPW licensing and,
therefore, are not covered by the Act.
5
Specific examples of such facilities include correctional
facilities which will be licensed by the Minnesota Depart-
ment of Corrections. Both "b" and "d" cover these
facilities.
In addition, there are a number of facilities within
Saint Paul which are not licensed by either state agency
but which are essentially community residential facilities.
Halfwa�y houses for people recovering from chemical depend-
ency are one example. Facilities for people who are
mentally ill are the other notable case. Although they
are under DPW's licensing jurisdiction, a moratorium has
been placed on requ�ring licensure because of complexities
associated with continuing federal funding assistance to
the people needing care.

recomnended that definitions be based on state definitions.

DISCUSSION
All facilities for six or fewer should be permitted in
single-family residential districts. However, in addition
to the licensed capacity of a facility, staff inembers often
reside at the facility and additional staff may, depending
on the facility, work shifts. When a facility serves more
than six residents, the resulting density is not consistent
with the intent of one-family districts which are designed
to be low density.

ISCUSSIO
This section allows Community Residential Facilities to
locate in RT-1 , RT-2, RM-1 and RM-2 Residential Districts
subject to the conditions listed. Specific reasons for
changes in conditions are as follows :
C(2) Comnunity Residential Facilities have a capacity associated
with their licensure. Using this capacity to determine
facility size is a more consistent method than determination
on a case by case basis by zoning (see section 2.5).
The limit of sixteen is chosen to be consistent with state
legislation which specifies that programs licensed by the
Department of Public Welfare for seven through sixteen
persons are permitted multi-family uses, although the
municipality may attach special conditions. This change
increases the basic capacity allowed most facilities from
fourteen to sixteen. It decreases the basic capacity
allowed facilities for persons who are mentally retarded
or physically handicapped from twenty to sixteen. In
addition to making Saint Paul 's regulations consistent
with S tate legislative criteria, this change treats
Community Residential Facilities equitably.
Few structures have been specifically designed to serve as
Comnunity Residential Facilities. Occasionally, existing
apartment buildings or nursing homes can be converted to
Comnunity Residential Facilities or a new structure is
built. Although choice of any numerical cut-off is , in
part, arbitrary, the ability of providers to find suitable
facilities must be weighed against the impact of a higher
density on the neighborhood. While access to larger
facilities should be allowed, the higher density requires
10
, �
� �,��� �.
more stringent conditions if the intent of the Zoning
Ordinance is to be protected.
C(3) Under the current provisions of the Zoning Ordinance, a
Corr�nunity Residential Facility could house from fourteen
to twenty persons in any existing building on a lot which
is only 5,000 square feet. The proposed change will
require lots varying from 5,300 square feet for seven
residents to 8,000 square feet for 16 residents, thus
helping to assure adequate lot size given density without
placing an excessive burden on providers seeking new
facilities.
Under the existing Ordinance, Community Residential
Facilities licensed for more than sixteen persons can
also be located on a 5,000 square foot lot. Facilities
of this size should be required to meet all regulations
for new buildings in the zoning district to protect the
intent of the Ordinance.
C(4) The proposed changes result from combining the definitions
of Corrmunity Residential Facilities and� Residential Group
Homes and state legislative mandates for facilities
licensed by the Minnesota Department of Public Welfare.
Because there are situations where unique physical char-
acteristics , such as a bluff line or highway divide
facilities, this requirement should be subject to
modification under the provisions of 64.209(d) .
C(5) Increased vehicular traffic and congestion on residential
streets can result from the combination of facility resi-
dents and staff who work at the facility. On the other
hand, some Comnunity Residential Facilities do not allow
. residents to have access to vehicles or serve people who
cannot drive. In those instances, upon verification,
parking requirements should be subject to modification
to prevent undue hardship.
C(6) This condition is included to clarify the fact that per-
mission to conduct the special condition use is contingent
on each of these factors and that if any of them change,
permission to conduct the use must be reviewed and may
also change.

in the business district under consideration. From a
community standpoint, this revision would provide greater
opportunity for providers to find suitable locations
without increasing density patterns unduly. Basically,
it allows Comnunity Residential Facilities to be treated
as residential uses in Business Districts as long as the

14.0 ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS � '
In addition to the proposed revisions to the Zoning
Ordinance, the following recommendations were made
during the course of the 40 Acre Study. The following
sections present those directed toward the City and in
some instances, suggest additional action. They are
not proposed amendments for the Ordinance itself.
. ADE U E N C ecause �strict counci s meet mont y, ays notice to
the affected district was recommended. Representatives
of the Comnunity Residential Facilities indicate that,
in most instances , this will not have an adverse effect
on their ability to find and obtain suitable locations.
Although there are occasions where the requirement may
make the time-line for providers tight, the requirement
is not excessive.
C E DED
Planning Comnission approval of a resolution requiring
notice of application for special condition use for
Corrmunity Residential Facilities to be mailed 45 days
� prior to the public hearing before the Current Planning
and Zoning Committee.
This notice will be mailed to the district council president '
and comnunity organizer as soon as application for special
condition use for a Community Residential Facility is re-
ceived. Although the date of the public hearing on the
application will not be known at that time, it would be
scheduled for at least 45 days from the date of mailing.
All other notices will comply with current requirements
and be sent to representatives of the district affected
as well as property owners within 350 feet of the zoning
lot in question.
" .2 NON-RESIDEN L ten, t e concerns expresse by a neighbor ood are the
TREATMENT FACILITIES result of a combination of programs in one neighborhood.
Specific examples include drug treatment drop-in centers
in close proximity to Community Residential Facilities.
It is not clear whether or not there is a problem. However,
concerns have been expressed consistently enough over time
to warrant further study.
PROPOSED ACTION
The Zoning staff should identify the types of non-
` residential programs which are in question and, if appro-
priate, request a 40-acre study to amend the Zoning
Ordinance in order to determine the impact on neighborhoods
and how they can be alleviated.

14.3 PROGRAM MONITORING Throughout the study, concerns were expressed which
relate to features of Comnunity Residential Facilities
which are not appropriately addressed by zoning. A major
concern is proper monitoring of programs once they have
received their initial license and funding.
Facilities are monitored at the State level on a regular
basis. In addition, the County reviews funding contracts
annually. Frequently, however, neighbors are not offered
a formal opportunity to provide input into these reviews.
Yet, neighbors may be able to provide insights into the
facility for those licensing and funding Comnunity
Residential Facilities.
REC E DE C N
Planning Comnission approval of a resolution asking the
Saint Paul City Council to go on record supporting in-
creased communication between other governmental agencies
who license and fund Community Residential Facilities and
the residents of the area surrounding facilities.
14.4 EQUAL DISTRIBUTION A special condition limiting the population of Comnunity
OF COMMUNITY RESIDENTIAL Residential Facilities to 0.5% of the total citizen par-
FACILITIES ticipation dis.trict population and placing an upper limit
on the number of facilities in each district based on
total population was recomnended. The intent of this
recomnendation is to reduce concentration of facilities.
• The need for requirements beyond the distance requirements
currently included in the Ordinance has not been documented.
In addition, the data requirements associated with this
recommendation would make it very difficult to implement.
Representatives of District 4 asked that they be put on
record as recomnending these requirements , although the
difficulties in implementing it were accepted.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Continued monitoring of Comnunity Residential Facilities
for evidence of concentration.
