Planning Commission Agenda Report CUP 2024-0018 February 11, 2025 Page 2 APPROVAL AUTHORITY: The project location is within the Public and Institutional (P&I)zoning district, and pursuant to Tustin City Code (TCC) 9245b, Hospitals are conditionally permitted uses. Pursuant to TCC 9291c, the Planning Commission has the authority to review and act on CUPs. BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION: At the January 28, 2025 Planning Commission meeting, Planning Staff requested a continuance of the subject project, and the Planning Commission motioned to approve the continuance to the February 11, 2025 Planning Commission meeting. The continuance was requested because information relative to Special Treatment Programs was not included in the applicant's submittal information and was not analyzed by Staff. The continuance allowed Staff to review the operational characteristics of Special Treatment Programs and determine that these programs are consistent with, and considered, SNFs. Staff has since incorporated the analysis of the Special Treatment Programs into the Staff Report and modified the associated Conditions of Approval accordingly. Site and Surrounding Properties The project site is located south of the intersection of Irvine Boulevard and Yorba Street (Figure 1, Page 3). Adjacent properties to the east are developed with single-family homes that have been re-purposed into office buildings, while the adjacent property to the north is developed with a more typical multi-tenant office building. The adjacent property to the south (along the east side of Myrtle Avenue) is developed with a multi-family apartment community. The property along the west side of Myrtle Avenue is developed with a medical dialysis center.

The northerly two-story building (14851 Yorba Street) is approximately 56,000 square feet, was built in 1991 , and was formerly used as a rehabilitation hospital. The southerly one-story building (165 N. Myrtle Avenue) is approximately 17,000 square feet, was built in 1971, and was formerly used as a SNF. A shared outdoor courtyard is located between both buildings. The site was previously occupied by Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital, providing acute care and rehabilitation services, until the site was vacated in May 2022. Figure 2 — Site Plan — n0 oq _ 2 Story Building / I L El 0 0 0 1 Story Building ' > I. \ L cauNr �l mT.�NUMeEH CF eE�. It§ The existing medical campus provides a total of 165 parking spaces. An underground, two- level parking structure, accessed through Myrtle Avenue, provides 159 parking spaces. A surface parking lot, accessible through Yorba Street, provides an additional six parking spaces. Tenant improvements are needed to prepare the buildings for the proposed use and would be submitted to the City for review and permitting by the Building Division. Project Description Skilled Nursing Facility Life Generations Healthcare provides various skilled nursing and adult residential health services in convalescent hospitals since 1998. Life Generation Healthcare has over 3,500 licensed beds in 31 facilities throughout California and Nevada (Attachment D - Letter of Operations). Planning Commission Agenda Report CUP 2024-0018 February 11, 2025 Page 4 Life Generations Healthcare is proposing a skilled nursing and supportive care facility for 121 patients, including 24-hour inpatient care (dietary, pharmaceutical services and activity programs) within the existing buildings located at 14851 Yorba Street and 165 N. Myrtle Avenue. The project site was previously approved and built as a hospital-related use (SNF and rehabilitation facility), and the application currently being proposed essentially reactivates the site with a hospital-like use by using the same floor plan and updating the interior and exterior of the buildings. The proposed services are described as follows and elaborated upon in Attachment D: • The facility will operate 24-hours a day, 365 days a year and a reception desk will be staffed during "normal business hours" that are considered 9:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., daily. • The facility will provide services commensurate with SNFs and include, but not limited to the following: o Room and board; o Nursing care (skilled observation and assessment); o Respiratory care; o Physical, speech, and occupational therapies; o Catheterizations; o Wound care; o Intravenous (IV) fluids; o IV, intramuscular and subcutaneous medications; o Pain control; o Feedings such as parenteral nutrition; o Ventilator care; o Medication management (as ordered by the patient's physician); o Vaccine administration; and, o Ancillary Special Treatment Program. The 56,000 square foot, two-story building at 14851 Yorba Street would contain the main entrance and reception area, shared occupancy patient rooms, administrative offices, and other operational support areas. Operational support areas include: administrative offices, dining areas, therapy rooms, kitchen, medical offices, and exam rooms. Figures 3 and 4 (Page 6) provide the floor plans for these areas.

Special Treatment Program (STP) Article 4 of Chapter 3 of Division 5 of Title 22 of California Code of Regulations identifies Special Treatment services that can be provided in part to, or as a SNF. STPs are skilled nursing services "that provide programs to serve patients who have chronic psychiatric impairment and whose adaptive functioning is moderately impaired. Special treatment program services are those therapeutic services, including prevocational preparation and prerelease planning, provided to mentally disordered persons having special needs in one or more of the following general areas: self-help skills, behavior adjustment, interpersonal relationships." (CCR Sec. 72443) A significant number of patients in SNFs have one or more behavioral health challenges along with their medical acuity necessitating skilled nursing. Recognizing co-morbidities exist for many patients, California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) has authorized SNFs to include in their rehabilitation programs certified mental health programs called "Special Treatment Programs" ("STP"). These programs allow SNFs to wholistically treat patients to expedite recovery. As such, in addition to the restorative, cardiac, orthopedic, stroke recover, and wound care and rehabilitation services (including physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, etc.), STPs also offer individual and group therapy sessions, psychiatric and psychological services and clinics, along with a full-time licensed program director dedicated to administering the STP to the patients. Although the applicant has not committed to establishing a STP at the project site, if they proceed, they will need to obtain State licensure to offer STP services. The STP will be licensed and supervised by both CDPH and DHCS. If the applicant proceeds with STP services, approximately 30 beds will be set aside for patients with behavioral health. Typically, people admitted to a SNF/STP for solely a behavioral health condition is rare because there are other facility types that are less specialized with the health acuity part of Planning Commission Agenda Report CUP 2024-0018 February 11, 2025 Page 7 the SNF that could treat a patient who did not have a co-existing health condition. In rare occurrences, the facility may provide a special placement for individuals that only require STP; however, the majority of patients who will require the STP will also need medical SNF services. DISCUSSION: California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 5 establishes the State's authorization for licensing and certification of health facilities, clinics, home health agencies, including hospitals. Chapter 3 of Division 5 establishes licensing requirements for skilled nursing facilities and defines skilled nursing facilities as "...a health facility or a distinct part of a hospital which provides continuous skilled nursing care and supportive care to patients whose primary need is for availability of skilled nursing care on an extended basis. It provides 24-hour inpatient care and, as a minimum, includes physician, skilled nursing, dietary, pharmaceutical services and an activity program." (CCR Sec. 72103). The previous tenant of the site, Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital, provided acute care and rehabilitation services, and was licensed as a "specialty hospital". A Specialty Hospital is defined as "...a hospital which provides special services either rehabilitation, maternity, or dentistry, and which meets all the requirements for a general acute care hospital, except that it is not required to provide surgical or anesthesia services." Although the proposed use and the previous rehabilitation hospital are classified under distinct classifications, they are both considered hospital-like uses that are conditionally permitted in the P&I zone. Furthermore, as stated above, a portion of the site was previously used as a SNF. To ensure the facility is operated as SNF, Conditional of Approval No. 2.3 states that a change of license type to a use other than a SNF, pursuant to California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 5 is not allowed, and the approval of CUP 2024-0018 does not allow the establishment of short-term housing uses such as Recuperative Care or Post- Hospitalization Housing. Proposals for the establishment of housing-related uses may be subject to a new CUP and legislative actions such as a zone change or a specific plan amendment. Operation The applicant's wholly owned subsidiary will obtain a license for the facility from the Department of Public Health, pursuant to California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 5. As required by law, the proposed use will provide skilled nursing and supportive care, including 24-hour inpatient care and, as a minimum, physician skilled nursing, dietary, and pharmaceutical services and an activity program. Planning Commission Agenda Report CUP 2024-0018 February 11, 2025 Page 8 The applicant has various contracts with hospitals throughout the region, such as the following: • St Joseph Health (Providence Health System) • Hoag Hospital • OC Global Medical Center • University California Irvine Medical Center • St. Jude Medical Center (Providence Health System). The contract hospitals refer patients to the facility for skilled nursing services for patients who no longer require acute care but require an environment with medical and social services for individuals whose care needs cannot be met at home or in a residential care setting. The applicant's patients are referred from their private and public partners in need of Skilled Nursing services, including those with needs of Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Speech Therapy, Orthopedic Rehabilitation, Stroke, Pulmonary, or Cardiac Rehabilitation, Spinal Cord Rehabilitation, IV therapy or tube feeding and, in some instances, behavioral health services. The applicant also specializes in orthopedic care after surgeries such as knee and hip replacements. Wound care is also a focus of their facilities. As with all SNFs, Department of Healthcare Access and Information (HCAI) (formerly OSHPD) monitors the construction, renovation, and seismic safety of California's hospitals and SNFs. As such, Tustin's Building Division will not review construction plans or issue permits for construction activity under the DHCAI jurisdiction. City-issued building permits will be required for improvements not under DHCAI's jurisdiction. The operation of the proposed project will be monitored by DHCS and CDPH, therefore, staff has included Conditions of Approval to ensure that the establishment, maintenance or operation of the proposed use will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, comfort and general welfare of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood of such proposed use, or whether it will be injurious or detrimental to property and improvements in the neighborhood or the general welfare of the City. Special Treatment Program (STP) As stated earlier in this report, the applicant has not committed to establishing a STP at the project site; however, if they proceed, they will need to obtain State Iicensure to offer STP services. The STP will be licensed and supervised by CDPH and DHCS. Additional security would be included in the STP-designated portion for the safety and peace of mind of the patients both in the STP portion of the facility, and the rest of the SNF. Additional information relative to security measures can be found in the Security section on Page 12. Planning Commission Agenda Report CUP 2024-0018 February 11, 2025 Page 9 The applicant has over 26 years of experience providing SNF services and seven years operating STPs. The closest facility operated by the applicant is the Newport Nursing and Rehabilitation Center located at 1555 Superior Avenue in Newport Beach. htti)s://Iifegen.net/locations/newi)ort-nursing-rehabilitation-centerw. The facility is an established SNF, and the applicant is in the process of adding STP certification. The STP is currently under construction and a Certificate of Occupancy is anticipated in early February 2025. The Newport Beach facility is a 61-bed facility and when the STP is completed, the facility will provide 31 SNF beds and 30 STP beds, increasing to a total of 61 beds. Newport Beach did not require zoning clearances or entitlements for the establishment of the new STP within the existing SNF because SNFs are permitted by right in the zone where the facility is located. Patient Intake and Discharge and Stay Duration The patient intake and discharge process take approximately one hour. During intake, the patient will be transported by ambulance to the proposed facility from one of the partner hospitals. The ambulance will park in a designated parking stall in the surface parking lot fronting Yorba Street, and the patient will be brought into the building where the staff will continue their intake process, consistent with State guidelines. Patient intake can take place at any time of day but typically occurs during normal business hours (9:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.). Upon successful recovery, staff will conduct the discharge process within the facility consistent with State guidelines. Upon completion of the discharge process, the patient will be transported by ambulance from the designated parking stall in the surface parking lot on Yorba Street to their destination. Patient discharge typically takes place during regular business hours (9:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.). Condition of Approval No. 2.7, would require a designated parking stall for intake and discharge purposes in the surface parking lot fronting Yorba Street (Figure 6). Pursuant to the applicant, patients stay an average of 60 days; however, typical care is concluded in approximately 21 days. In severe cases, patients could stay as long as 18 months. In the case that the patient's prognosis is terminal, most prefer to return home with hospice, or they are returned to the hospital for more immediate care. Planning Commission Agenda Report CUP 2024-0018 February 11, 2025 Page 10 Figure 6 — General Location of Intake/Discharge Parking Stall Intake/Discharge Parking Stall . M Building Entrance A . Staffing The facility will be staffed 24 hours a day with skilled medical personnel, such as registered nurses (RN) and licensed therapists, as well as administration, housekeeping, activity and dietary service associates responsible for ensuring a safe experience for the patients. Table 1 below illustrates the total number of staff per shift. At 100% capacity, the proposed 121- bed facility would require 35 employees during the A.M. shift, 34 employees on P.M. shift, 15 employees on Night shift, including one security guard, and 19 employees during regular business hours. The applicant Letter of Operations provides details regarding the staffed positions (Attachment D). TABLE I R OF EMPLOYEES Shift No. of Employees A.M. Hours 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 .m. 35* P.M.

Planning Commission Agenda Report CUP 2024-0018 February 11, 2025 Page 11 Security The facility will be a locked complex with 24-hour security. The site will be secured by a locking system at all exterior gates leading into the facility. The Tustin Police Department has reviewed the project and established Conditions of Approval requiring security measures, such as cameras and a "Knox box" to provide an override access for immediate first responders. The applicant plans on providing security personnel during the night shift, when there is a lower number of staff at the facility. Security for the STP would include camera systems throughout the exterior and common areas, with state-of-the-art tracking and remote phone access. All gates would be equipped with delayed egress tied back to the fire systems and opened with key cards. Patients and visitors will not be allowed in the courtyards or other outdoor areas without supervision. Visitors meet their loved ones in a designated area of the STP. TPD would require review of the security policies and procedures related to the STP prior to obtaining a Certificate of Occupancy (Condition of Approval No. 2.1). Parking and Circulation The applicant proposes to establish a hospital use providing skilled nursing for up to 121 patients. TCC 9263(g) requires one parking space per four beds for "extended care" uses, which includes services such as elderly care, SNFs, etc. This patient ratio results in a requirement of 31 parking spaces. The proposed facility would be staffed in four shifts (A.M., P.M., Night and Business Hours). The A.M. and P.M. shifts contain the most staffing with 35 and 34 total staff members, respectively, and the facility would be staffed with 19 employees during normal business hours. Although there would be an overlap at the end of one shift, and the beginning of the next, it is estimated that a maximum of 54 parking spaces would be required to allow for this brief occurrence. If the STP is established, an additional five parking spaces would be required. The property is supplied with 165 existing parking spaces — 159 spaces that are provided in an underground parking lot accessed via Myrtle Avenue, and six spaces provided on the surface parking lot fronting Yorba Street. As proposed, the maximum parking spaces required is 85 (90 with STP) spaces as shown in Table 2.

As of the preparation of this report, no public comments were received. ENVIRONMENTAL: The subject project is Categorically Exempt pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Section 15301 (Class 1 — Existing Facilities). CONCLUSION: Based on this report and the findings and Conditions of approval contained herein, staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 4519 approving CUP 2024- 0018 to establish a Specialty Hospital use required to be licensed as a Skilled Nursing Facility through the California Department of Public Health, pursuant to California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 5. within the existing buildings located at 14851 Yorba Street and 165 N. Myrtle Avenue.

Myrtle, Tustin, California (the"Property") as a 121-bed Convalescent Hospital (the "Facility"). For years, the Property was used for this purpose, and in fact, when the zoning of the Property was changed in 1984, it was changed explicitly to include this use. (See Attachment A, 1984 Zone Change Summary Analysis). GHC proposes to return the Property to its original use. GHC, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, has been providing Skilled Nursing and Adult Residential Health Services in Convalescent Hospitals since 1998. We believe that caring for the sick, the elderly, and the infirm is a special and sacred stewardship. We currently have over 3,500 licensed beds in thirty-one facilities throughout California and Nevada, the majority of which are Convalescent Hospitals (i.e., "Skilled Nursing Facilities"'). Our facilities and staff have received numerous awards through the years, including the Bronze National Quality Award from the AHCA/NCAL. The Facility will be licensed by a wholly-owned GHC subsidiary through the California Department of Public Health, pursuant to California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 5. As required by law, the Facility will provide skilled nursing and supportive care, including 24-hour inpatient care and, as a minimum, physician, skilled nursing, dietary, and pharmaceutical services and an activity program.

Com TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS FROM: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT_ DEPART14ENT SUBJECT: GPA 84-4b BACKGROUND: Section 65302 of the California Government Code states that a city' s General Plan and zoning must be consistant. Recently, a property owner requested that the current zoning designation on his property be changed to reflect the existing land use designation. As a part of this request, the Council directed staff to review the city's land use map and identify any inconsistencies. Staff has reviewed the land use and zoning maps and presented a report to Council outlined each inconsistency. Council accepted this report and directed staff to advertise a public hearing before the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission considered these amendments in a public hearing on September 24, 1984. Staff recommended that the Planning Commission approve a resolution recommending that these amendments be adopted by the -City Council , and the Planning Commission accepted this recommendation. The resolution of approval has been enclosed for your review. In addition, the staff report from the September 24th meeting has also been included. DISCUSSION• The only purpose for these proposed land use element changes is to bring the land use and zoning maps into conformance. They will result in no change from the existing use or zoning with the exception of 165 N. Myrtle and 14851 Yorba. In that case, both the zoning and land use must be changed to bring this property into conformance with the existing use of the land.

The use of the property is a convalescent hospital , and is licensed by the State of California. The state is quite precise in its terminology, and in order for the facility to be known as a "hospital" it must meet certain criteria, which it evidently does. The only zoning district that permits hospitals is the Public A Institutional zone, so staff recommends that the land use and zoning be changed to the P & I designation.

The acceptance of residents with certain conditions or needs may require authorization or approval by the medical director, director of nursing services, and/or the administrator. 9. All new admissions and readmissions are screened for mental disorders (MD),intellectual disabilities (ID) or related disorders (RD) per the Medicaid Pre-Admission Screening and Resident Review (PASARR) process. a. The discharging hospital will complete a Level I PASARR screen for all potential admissions, regardless of payer source,to determine if the individual meets the criteria for a MD,ID or RD. b. If the level I screen indicates that the individual may meet the criteria for a MD, ID, or RD, he or she is referred to the state PASARR representative for the Level 11(evaluation and determination)screening process. (1) The nurse notifies the social services department when a resident is identified as having a possible (or evident) MD, ID or RD. (2) The social worker is responsible for making referrals to the appropriate state-designated authority. c. Upon completion of the Level 11 evaluation, the state PASARR representative determines if the individual has a physical or mental condition, what specialized or rehabilitative services he or she needs, and whether placement in the facility is appropriate. d. The state PASARR representative provides a copy of the report to the facility. e. The interdisciplinary team determines whether the facility is capable of meeting the needs and services of the potential resident that are outlined in the evaluation. f. Once a decision is made, the state PASARR representative, the potential resident and his or her representative are notified. 10. The preadmission screening program requirements do not apply to residents who, after being admitted to the facility,were transferred to a hospital. 11. The state may choose not to apply the preadmission screening requirement if a. the individual is admitted directly to the facility from a hospital where he or she received acute inpatient care; b. the individual requires facility services for the condition for which he or she received care in the hospital; and c. the attending physician has certified (prior to admission)that the individual will likely need less than 30 days of care at the facility. continues on next page C 2001 MED-PASS,Inc.(Revised March 2019) 12.

As part of the discharge summary, the nurse reconciles all pre-discharge medication with the resident's post-discharge medications. The medication reconciliation is documented. 3. Every resident is evaluated for his or her discharge needs and has an individualized post-discharge plan. 4. The post-discharge plan is developed by the care planning/interdisciplinary team with the assistance of the resident and his or her family and includes: a. where the individual plans to reside; b. arrangements that have been made for follow-up care and services; c. a description of the resident's stated discharge goals; d. the degree of caregiver/support person availability, capacity and capability to perform required care; e. how the IDT will support the resident or representative in the transition to post-discharge care; f. what factors may make the resident vulnerable to preventable readmission; and g. how those factors will be addressed. 5. The discharge plan is re-evaluated based on changes in the resident's condition or needs prior to discharge. 6. The resident/representative is involved in the post-discharge planning process and informed of the final post-discharge plan. 7. Residents are asked about their interest in returning to the community. If the resident indicates an interest in returning to the community, he or she will be referred to local agencies and support services that can assist in accommodating the resident's post-discharge preferences. 8. If it is determined that returning to the community is not feasible,it will be documented why this is the case and who made the determination. 9. Residents transferring to another skilled nursing facility or who are discharged to a home health agency, long-term care hospital or inpatient rehabilitation facility are assisted in selecting a post-acute care provider that is relevant and applicable to the resident's goals of care and treatment preferences.Data used in helping the resident select an appropriate facility include the receiving facility's: a. standardized patient assessment data; b. quality measure data; and c. data on resource use. 10. The resident or representative (sponsor) is asked to provide the facility with a minimum of a seventy-two (72)hour notice of a discharge to assure that an adequate discharge evaluation and post-discharge plan can be developed. 11. A member of the IDT reviews the final post-discharge plan with the resident and family at least twenty- four(24)hours before the discharge is to take place. continues on next page C 2001 MED-PASS,Inc.(Revised October 2022) 12. A copy of the following is provided to the resident and receiving facility and a copy will be filed in the resident's medical records: a. An evaluation of the resident's discharge needs; b.

Policy Interpretation and Implementation 1. The multidisciplinary staff, including nursing staff, the attending physician and the dietitian will assess each resident's nutritional needs, food likes, dislikes and eating habits, as well as physical, functional, and psychosocial factors that affect eating and nutritional intake and utilization. 2. A resident-centered diet and nutrition plan will be based on this assessment. 3. Meals and/or nutritional supplements will be provided within 45 minutes of either resident request or scheduled meal time, and in accordance with the resident's medication requirements. 4. Reasonable efforts will be made to accommodate resident choices and preferences. 5. The food and nutrition staff will be available and adequately staffed to assist residents with eating as needed. Nurse aides and feeding assistants will provide support to enhance the resident experience, but not as a critical component to the functioning of the department. 6. Nursing staff will ensure that assistive devices are available to residents as needed. 7. Food and nutrition services staff will inspect food trays to ensure that the correct meal is provided to each resident,the food appears palatable and attractive, and it is served at a safe and appetizing temperature. a. If an incorrect meal is provided to a resident, or a meal does not appear palatable, nursing staff will report it to the Food Service Manager so that a new food tray can be issued. b. Foods that are left without a source of heat(for hot foods) or refrigeration(for cold foods)longer than 2 hours will be discarded. 8. Nursing personnel, with the assistance of the food and nutrition services staff, will evaluate (and document as indicated) food and fluid intake of residents with, or at risk for, significant nutritional problems. a. Variations from usual eating or intake patterns will be recorded in the resident's medical record and brought to the attention of the nurse. b. A nurse will evaluate the significance of such information and report it, as indicated, to the attending physician and dietitian. 9. Meals are scheduled at regular times to assure that each resident receives at least three (3) meals per day. Meal times are posted in facility common areas. 10. Nourishing snacks are available to the residents 24 hours a day. The resident may request snacks as desired, or snacks may be scheduled between meals to accommodate the resident's typical eating patterns. continues on next page C 2001 MED-PASS,Inc.(Revised October 2017) References §483.20(b) Comprehensive Assessments; §483.21(b) Comprehensive Care OBRA Regulatory Plans; §483.60 Food and nutrition services.; §483.60(c) Menus and nutritional Reference Numbers adequacy.; §483.60(d) Food and drink; §483.60(f)Frequency of Meals; §483.60(h)Paid feeding assistants- Survey Tag Numbers F636; F656; F800; F803; F804; F806; F807; F809; F811 Other References Food and Nutrition Services Staff Related Documents Nutritional Assessment Version 2.3 (H5MAPL0764) C 2001 MED-PASS,Inc.(Revised October 2017) 000 00 NUTRITION SERVICES y "f Policy and Procedure Manual r�.

B. That the subject property is located within the Public and Institutional (P&I) district, Professional (Pr) district, and Specific Plan No. 9 (SP9- Yorba Specific Plan) and the property has a Public/Institutional General Plan land use designation. For purposes of this project, the P&I zoning district standards apply because the existing buildings are located in the P&I zone. C. That pursuant to Tustin City Code (TCC) 9245b, Hospitals are conditionally permitted uses in the P&I zoning district. D. That the project site was formally constructed for, and occupied by, a skilled nursing facility and a rehabilitation hospital, and both uses were considered hospitals when approved. E. That pursuant to California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 5, skilled nursing facilities are hospital-like in that they provide 24-hour care to patients whose primary need is for availability of skilled nursing care on an extended basis. F. That pursuant to TCC Section 9291 grants the Planning Commission the authority to consider and act on requests for a CUP. G. That a public hearing was duly called, noticed, and held for CUP 2024-0018 on January 28, 2025, by the Planning Commission. H. That the project has been reviewed for consistency with the Air Quality Sub-element of the City of Tustin General Plan and has been determined to be consistent with the Air Quality Sub-element. PC Reso. No. 4519 CUP 2024-0018 I. That in determining whether to approve the CUP, the Planning Commission finds that the establishment, maintenance, and operation of the proposed uses will not, under the circumstances of this case, be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, comfort, or general welfare of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood of such proposed use, nor be injurious or detrimental to the property and improvements in the neighborhood of the subject property, or to the general welfare of the City of Tustin, in that: 1. That conditionally permitted uses in the P & I zoning district include hospitals. Pursuant to California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 5, skilled nursing facilities are under a list of classes that include hospitals, and skilled nursing facilities support hospitals, including Special Treatment Programs, in that they provide 24-hour care to patients whose primary need is for availability of skilled nursing care on an extended basis. The project site was previously designed and approved for a skilled nursing facility and rehabilitation hospital and the applicant would be re-activating the site with similar operational characteristics as the previous uses. 2. That the proposed skilled nursing facility (Specialty Hospital) is located within the P & I zoning district. As conditioned, the proposed Hospital (skilled nursing facility) characteristics and hours of operation, would align with those of existing uses in the area, ensuring compatibility with the surrounding businesses. 3.

On-site parking is available and sufficient for skilled nursing facility (Specialty Hospital) uses. 4. That the project site currently provides a total of 165 parking spaces, which includes six surface parking spaces and 159 subterranean spaces. With a maximum patient capacity of 121 beds, medical and administrative staff, the facility requires a total of 85 parking spaces (90 if Special Treatment Program is established). As currently provided onsite, the site exceeds the required parking for Hospital (skilled nursing facilities). J. The Tustin Police Department has reviewed the application and has no concerns as conditioned. K. That this project is Categorically Exempt pursuant to Section 15301 (Class 1 — Existing Facilities) of the California Code of Regulations (Guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Act).
