The new wing will be for alzheimer patients who require special care and staff. Chairperson Ratner called on Planning Director Al Goldman to provide the staff report. Mr. Goldman stated that Mr. Robert Salter, representing University Forest Nursing Care Center, Inc., has submitted an application for amending Conditional Use No. 265 in order to expand the nursing home by adding a 20 bed wing at the west end of the existing building. The new wing is to connect the two westernmost wings, forming an enclosed triangular shaped court yard. The proposal relocates the existing 20 car employee parking lot west of its present location. An identical application was recommended for approval by the Plan Commission on August 26, 1992 and was subsequently approved by the City Council on September 14, 1992. An extension of time was then approved by the City Council on April 12, 1993, but has been in an expired status since September 30, 1993. No conditions have changed since the last time this application was before the Plan Commission other than the following items of site maintenance that require corrective action: a. Damaged parking lot and driveway pavement. b. Abandoned playground pavement that is in severely deteriorated condition. c. Rusted and broken playground equipment. d. Rusted fences and e. Volunteer plant growth in undeveloped portions of the site.
