Purpose. The purpose of this sectfon is to allow for adaptfve reuse of nonresidentfal buildings in 14 <br />residentfal zones that are functfonally obsolete in order to improve the economic feasibility of a property 15 <br />by considering uses that are not otherwise permitted, but which, if properly designed and managed, 16 <br />would not create unacceptable impacts on surrounding propertfes or the immediate vicinity in general. 17 <br />This process differs from the unlisted use process listed in EMC 19.05.070(B) in that uses that are not 18 <br />specifically authorized in the underlying residentfal zone may be considered using the process described 19 <br />herein. 20 <br />B. Procedures. Any request for adaptfve reuse of nonresidentfal buildings shall be reviewed as an 21 <br />administratfve use in the Neighborhood Residentfal or Neighborhood Residentfal-Constrained zones; 22 <br />otherwise as a permitted use subject to the standards of this sectfon. If the property is outside a historic 23 <br />overlay zone but listed on a historic register or as a contributfng structure in a historic register district, 24 <br />the historical commission shall review the proposal and make a recommendatfon to the review 25 <br />authority. 26 <br />C. Circumstances. The city may allow a use in a residentfal zone that is not specifically allowed in that 27 <br />zone if it is necessary to encourage adaptfve reuse of a building under the following circumstances: 28 <br />1. It is unlikely that the primary building on the subject property could be preserved if only uses 29 <br />permitted in the underlying zone were allowed. 30 <br />2. Allowing a different use would enhance the character of the building and immediate vicinity. 31 <br />3. The use would not have a detrimental effect upon surrounding propertfes or the immediate 32 <br />vicinity. 33 <br />D. Uses. The following uses may be considered for adaptfve reuse of an existfng building in a residentfal 34 <br />zone: 35 <br />1. Dwelling units. Density based on underlying zoning plus one additfonal dwelling unit; 36 <br />2. Assisted living facilitfes; 37
