She stated that the Citresearched this issue and while the <br />statute was unclear, she determined that any more than six beds under the B or <br />C Category would require a CUP. She added that the applicants considered whether a <br />12-bed facility under Category A would work for them and determined that it would. <br /> <br />Ms. Harryman then went over the applicable Health and Safety Code sections regarding <br />Categories A, B, and C. She stated that Section 1250(i) allows congregate living health <br />facilities to have up to 12 beds and to serve three categories of persons: <br /> <br />1. Category A is for persons who are mentally alert, physically disabled, and who may <br />be ventilator-dependent. The current proposal is for 12 Category A beds. <br /> <br />2. Category B is for persons who have a diagnosis of terminal illness, life-threatening <br />illness, or both. <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, November 30, 2011 Page 9 of 19 <br /> <br />
