iv. Community residential homes licensed by the state department of children and

Planning Board Meeting · 2026-06-09 · agenda_item

This item concerns proposed regulations for community residential homes. These homes, licensed by the state, would be permitted if they house six or fewer residents and are not located within 1,000 feet of another similar home. If a proposed home is within this 1,000-foot distance, it would require city council approval following public notification to property owners within a 500-foot radius. This matter is currently under review by the Planning Board. The process ahead involves potential city council review and public notification, which could lead to the establishment of new residential facilities. Businesses involved in construction, property management, and related services may find opportunities as these homes are established. Early engagement could be beneficial as specific site plans and approvals are determined.
