Commission recommends CUP for adult day‑care serving adults with disabilities; council to review parking and hours

The Midway City Planning Commission recommended approval of a conditional‑use permit for an adult day‑care proposed by Innovative Harbor at a single‑family property in the C‑2 zone (15 South / 700 East). The applicant’s agent, Jonathan Burton, was not present; staff presented the application and operation details.

Staff said the site includes an existing single‑family home approved for a group residence and a detached accessory structure proposed for day‑program activities. The facility is designed to serve residents of the on‑site group home plus additional community participants; staff used a placeholder upper limit of 20 participants (including residents) but noted the state will inspect the facility and may set a lower occupancy limit. "It will be daytime hours," Michael said in response to questions about operating times and confirmed the program is not intended to extend into evenings.

On transport, staff said the applicant plans to use two vans to pick up participants and that family drop‑offs have not been indicated; commissioners urged that the applicant provide a parking and drop‑off plan to city council. Commissioners also discussed visitation and federal fair‑housing protections for home residents; staff said the city cannot impose special visitor restrictions on the residential portion of the property.

A motion recommending approval passed by voice vote with the commission asking that the applicant present specific daytime hours and a parking plan to the city council when the CUP is heard there.

Next step: the item will proceed to a city‑council public hearing, where neighboring owners within 600 feet will be notified.
