It seems a lot of you will be out in the next few weeks all at the same time. Would you please let me know who will be
in charge while you are out and who will cover for you for closing of the building. Also please let your staff know if you
are available to be reached during that time.We are the most short handed the next two weeks July 28 to Aug 8. In the
future we would better need to coordinate vacations so that at least two of us are here.
Also for discussion when you all return:
1)Vendors/peddlers- health and zoning approvals-coordination
2) Hotels- licenses or permits for those without alcohol.
Enjoy your vacations!!

Re: Benchmark Assisted Living
Dear Ralph:
After reviewing the Board of Fire Prevention regulations it appears that Regulated Seating
is required for institutional use with the provisions of 527 CMR 2905 Table 1. Regulated Seating
includes upholstered furniture that would be owned by the occupants of the residential units
within Harbor Point at Centerville, an Assisted Living Facility.
Under the State Building Code, Assisted Living Residences which are certified as such by
the Executive Office of Elder Affairs shall be classified in the Residential use group.
Although portions of an assisted living residence which are used for any use other than
residential shall be classified in accordance with the intended use. It does not seem correct to
classify units in which residents live as being an area of the building that is used for a use other
than residential.
I know you have some concern regarding portions of assisted living residences that have
persons with Alzheimer's disease. I believe your concern is that these resident's units are in some
way"locked". In fact, at Harbor Point I am advised that none of the resident's rooms are locked
by Harbor Point. Each person in their unit, after they enter it, can lock the door against persons
entering without permission. But it is not a"locked"unit against a resident's will. Each person is
free to enter and leave their individual home at will.
Each resident with Alzheimer's disease wears a bracelet. Except in the case of a fire
emergency, as any such person approaches a door to leave their wing or neighborhood within the
building, the door would lock electronically. This locking system, however, is automatically
deactivated if there is a fire alarm within the building. In such an emergency no person is
restricted from entering or leaving their neighborhood within the building or the building itself.
Town of Barnstable
E Att: Mr. Ralph Crossen
October 16, 1998
Page 2
In my opinion, an institutional rating for the building is not warranted first, under the
provision of the building code requiring classification of assisted living residences in Use Group R
and secondly, because of the actual residential use being unrestricted as I have set forth.
It is my opinion that those portions of an assisted living residence that might be classified
other than residential would be in those portions of properties that are common areas or devoted
to some other use such as the beauty salon,bank, mail room etc.. These other functions and areas
are not within a persons"home". If this-were not the case, an assisted living residence such as
Harbor Point that has only persons with Alzheimer's disease would have no portion of it that
would be classified in the Ruse group. This is not consistent with 780 CMR 310.1.
We agreed several years ago that if the Centerville Nursing Home was kept the same size
and simply changed to an assisted living center within, it would not be a change of use under the
Zoning By-law. I believe it was on this basis that you issued a building permit for certain interior
remodeling work at the building. I do not believe this zoning classification controls classifications
under the State Building Code. Since state law requires that the assisted living residence allows
<,. every resident to retain and use their own personal property in the resident's living area so as to
maintain individuality and personal dignity, it appears to me that the building code requiring
assisted living residences to be classified in the R use group is consistent and was adopted to
provide for allowing the provisions for the use and operation of assisted living residences not to
be in conflict with the building code.
In my opinion, the various provisions of the state law and the Code of Massachusetts
Regulations to be reasonable must be interpreted in a consistent manner. It is my opinion that this
is accomplished by the Executive Office of Elder Affairs stating that Harbor Point at Centerville is
an Assisted Living Residence and the building code stating that assisted living residences which
are certified as such by the Executive Office of Elder Affairs shall be classified in the residential
use group as applicable. The Executive Office of Elder Affairs does not classify Harbor Point at
Centerville as other than an assisted living residence even though it only has residents with
Alzheimer's disease. I think it is therefore reasonable to say that the provision of 70 CMR 3 10.1
stating that assisted living residences are to be classified in a residential use group requires you as
the building commissioner under the building code change the building code classification from I
to R.
Thank you for reviewing this issue again.
Very truly yours,
Myer

Procedural Summary:
This appeal was filed at the Town Clerk's Office and at the Office of the Zoning Board of Appeals
on July 11, 1996. A public hearing before the Zoning Board of Appeals was duly advertised and
notices sent to all abutters in accordance with MGL Chapter 40A. The hearing was opened August
21, 1996, at which time the Board found to allow the appeal to be Withdrawn Without Prejudice.
Board members hearing this appeal were Ron Jansson, Emmett Glynn, Gene Burman, Richard
Boy, and Chairman Gail Nightingale.
Attorney Myer R. Singer represented the Applicant. Gene Burman discussed with Attorney Singer
and with Town Attorney Robert Smith a possible conflict and both agreed there was no conflict and
Mr. Burman could sit on these appeals. Also present this evening were Bruce Wait, the Site
Engineer, David Kelly, the Project Architect, plus Sidney and Steven Insoft, Principals of the
Petitioner.
Attorney Singer submitted a memorandum in support of these appeals. He indicated the Petitioner
is seeking to amend the existing Special Permit and Variance or to receive a new Special Permit

and Variance to allow the construction of an addition to the former Centerville Nursing Home. They
wish to renovate the existing building, construct an additional building and become an Assisted
Living Facility. The property is partly in the Highway Business District and partly in the RC
Residential C Zoning District. The site currently has several approvals including Appeal Number
1960-47, Appeal Number 1979-74, and Appeal Number 1983-36. These are the permits the
petitioner is requesting to amend including the approval for a total of 115 beds. The addition will be
9,982 square feet on two stories entirely in the Highway Business Zoning District. The use itself will
not change,just a modification of the dimensions of the building. The building is approximately 225
-250+ feet from Route 28.
At this time the Board explained that according to the Zoning Ordinance, a Use Variance cannot be
granted within 300 feet of Route 28. Attorney Singer stressed that he is not seeking a new
Variance but rather a modification of an existing Variance. However,the Board felt that since the
applicants are constructing a new building, the petitioner is seeking a new Use Variance for that
building and that building is within 300 feet of Route 28 and does not fall under the existing Use
Variance. In rebuttal, Attorney Singer referred to the Staff Report which indicated that the change in
use from a nursing home to an assisted living facility would be permitted in accordance with Special
Permit, Section 4-4.5(1) and the addition would be allowed under Special Permit Section 4.4(2).
And therefore the part of the building that is 300 feet from Route 28 would not require a Variance
but rather a Special Permit. The Board mentioned the applicability of Mendes vs. Town of
Barnstable.
The Board recessed to asked Town Attorney Robert Smith, who was present, his opinion regarding
this issue. After a brief discussion, it was determined that the applicant should apply for a new
Special Permit under the Highway Business Zoning District. This would be a request for a
Conditional Use under Section 3-3.6. Attorney Singer requested to Withdraw Without Prejudice
both appeals.
Decision:
In Appeal Number 1996-109 a motion was duly made and seconded to allow the appeal to be
Withdrawn Without Prejudice.
The vote was as follows:
AYE: Richard Boy, Ron Jansson, Gene Burman, Emmett Glynn, and Chairman Gail Nightingale.

ORDER: Appeal Number 1996-109 has been Withdrawn Without Prejudice
Appeals of this decision, if any, shall be made to the Barnstable Superior Court pursuant to MGL

Re: Centerville Place
Dear David:
The Barnstable Site Plan Review Team approved the Centerville
Place Assisted Living Residence site plan with conditions regarding
submission of a revised plan showing an additional fire lane in
front of the building near Richardson Road and an indication of a
possible need for a hydrant.
A question was raised, which we must answer for the Building
Inspector and Zoning Board of Appeals, regarding the height of the
building. The building cannot be more than 30 feet in height or
two stories, whichever is the lesser. The Zoning By-law defines
"building height" as "the vertical distance from the ground level
to the plate" . It further defines a "story" as "that portion of a
building included between the upper surface of a floor and the
upper surface of the floor or roof next above and having at least
one half ( 1/2) its height above grade. "
Can you please mail a letter to me addressed to Mr. Ralph
Crossen, Town of Barnstable Building Commissioner, setting forth
that the addition to the Centerville Place Assisted Living
Residence as shown on the plans is neither more than 30 feet in
height nor two stories as those terms are defined in the Town of
Barnstable Zoning By-law.
In addition, please revise your plans to show by cross
sections or otherwise that the building is within the By-law
requirements. Also, delete from your plans windows from the side
elevations that would indicate the building potentially has four
floor levels.

Re: Centerville Place
For the Zoning Board of Appeals, we will have to submit
information about lighting and a landscape plan. Please contact
Bruce Wait and work out with him who will create the lighting plan
and who might be able to obtain a picture or other means of showing
the proposed lighting fixtures. Finally, discuss with him or with
Sidney Insoft or Stephen Insoft the preparation of the landscape
plan. It does not have to be extensive but should indicate the
location of existing and proposed landscaping. Please consider, in
particular, some means of screening the proposed parking area to
the east of the building from the adjoining residential land.
Though everything is needed as soon as possible, a letter
regarding the height of the building is required immediately. If
the building does not meet the By-law requirements, a variance must
be requested from the Zoning Board of Appeals. That cannot be
. advertised until the height issue is resolved.
Very truly yours,

Background:
The applicant is seeking to conversed the former Centerville Nursing Home at Richardson Road and
Route 28 into an Assisted Living Facility. The proposal is to renovate the existing 37,582 sq.ft. one
story structure and to add to it a 9,982 sq_ft.two story addition. Associated site improvements include
readjusting of entrance drop-off, on-site parking and septic system improvements,
/X
As proposed. the renovation and structural addition is designed to accommodate 38 studio units an r
32 one bedroom units. All of the units have one full bathroom but none appear to have kitchens: A �
common dining room, cafe, kitchen, lounge and living room have been proposed as well as related
service facilities of care stations, office and delivery area. The new two story section is equipped-with
one,elevator.
The focus is a 4.39 acre lot fronting on Richardson Road and Route 2-5. The front 300 feet of the lot
is within the HB -Highway Business Zoning District as measured from Route 28 and the rear portion
of the lot is within the RC- Residential C Zoning District. The lot has the benefits of Section 2-2.3 (3)
which permits the HS zoning line to be extended 30 additional feet into the RC district given that the
zoning line when redrawn in 1969 split the existing lot at that time,
Note: The map and parcel numbers have been revised to reflect the most recent assessor's map.
Zoning S. Development History:
The developme"t histc,Y of this iocus dates to the 1960. At that time, only the first 150 feet along
Route 28 was zoned B - Business 8 District and the remainder of the lot area zoned RB-1 -
Residential B-1 District. In 1960, the nursing home use was permitted as of right %vithin the Business

zoning district' however not permitted within the RB-1 District, A Dr. George Fink petitioned for a Use
Variance to permit the nursing home use within the residential zoned area of the lot. Use Varian-&
No. 1960-47 was granted on January 12, 1961 with the restriction "That the building be set back sixty
1501 feet from the sideline of Falmouth Road (Route 281" (see attached Use Variance No_ 1860-47).
That building was built according to plans for a 75 bed nursing home facility.
in 1979, a second use variancalspe6aj permit was requested and granted to the"Centerville Nursing
& Convalescent" on November 29, 1979. This variance/special permit was not implemented.
in 1983, a new applicant, "Richardson Road Assoclates'.applied for a Use Variance and Special
Permit for the construction of an addition to the-structure for 41 additional beds.The Board granted
the requested variance and special permit...."on June 02, 1983 (see attached Variance/Permit No.
1983-36).
At this time, the area zoning was HE- Highway Business District and RC-Residential C District. The
HS district having been redefined from the former 13 District was now expanded to a depth of 300 feet
from Route 28 -its present day configuration.
In 1983, the HE District permitted uses identicat-to those in the 13 District. In this Bylaw,the uses
permitted in the B District were itemized and Nursing Homes was not listed within. Nursing Homes
were however listed In the PRD- Professional Residential Zoning District= and that being the case
would have implied it was excluded as a permitted use in the HB District. Therefore the conclusion
Of staff is the Special Permit relief was for the non-conformity in use within the Highway
Business Zoning District and the Use Variance relief applies only to the lot area zoned
Residential C.
it is important to note that Section 4-4.7-Variance Situations, clearly identifies that circumstances
created by the issuance of a variance can not constitute nonccnformities_ Section 5-3.2 (5)- Use
Variances does not permit the Board to issue a Use Variance within 300 feet of Route 28.
Recommended Relief Necessary.-
Today the applicant has filed for two forms of relief_ One being the Use Variance or Modification of
the previous Use Variances and the other a Special Permit for the non-conforming use and structural
aspects (setback requirements). Staff would suggest that both forms of relief are needed and as
itemizers below.
Special Permit -Appeal No. 1996-109(at) in the 300 foot HE District plus 30 foot extension)
I. The change in use from.a Nursing Home to an Assisted Living i=aciiiiy would be permitted
in accordance with Section 4-4.5(1)-Change of a Non-conforming Use to Another
Non-conforming Use.
2. The 9,982 sq.ft.two story addition is an expansion of the structure housing a non-
conforming use within the HE Zoning District and would be permitted in accordance with
Section 4-4.4(2)Non-conforming Building or structures Not Used as a Single
Family or Two Family Dwellings-Spacial Permit.
3. To occupy the 9,982 sq.ft. would constitute an expansion of the non-conforming use and
would be permitted in conformance with Section 4-4.5(2) -Expansion of a Pre-Existing
Non-conforming Use.
Use Variance: -Appeal.No. 1996-1o8.(all within the RC Zoning District)
1- Within the RC Zoning District, Use Variance No. 1983-36 should be modifred. Although there
is no new structure being proposed within this RC Zoned area of the lot, that part of the
property and structure within the RC District should be Issued a new Use Variance for the
'from 19W Zoning Bylaw-Business uses listed only those uses exciuded for the Business zone and those requiring a special
permir. A nursing home was not exc:udea and did not require a special permit.

Staff Review&Recommendations:
The board should consult this section when making its findings.
Traffic:
Traffic considerations have been a long-standing issue for this area of Route 28. Staff would
suggest that the proposed change in use as related to overall traffic consideration would be
negligible when considering Route 28 but•might be of consideration on Richardson goad
given its residential nature.
The 1994 Cape Cod Commission traffic taunts for the segment of Route 18 were 28,428 vehicles per
day_ The adjusted average daily traffic was reported.at 24,448. The peak hour for traffic in both
-directions was 11:00 am weekdays. Traveling westward the peak hour was at 5:00 p.m. and traveling
eastward the peak hour is 8:00 am.
This segment of roadway is scheduled to be improved with the upcoming State resurfacing
improvements to Route 28. It is anticipated that these improvements will expand the roadways in
terms of lane additions and widening,
The Roadway length was analyzed in 1992 in the"Route 28 and 132 Traffic Circulation Study"by the
Cape Cod Commission. There findings were that this segment of Route 28 operated at a Level of
Service (LOS) "E"which is the poorest level measured on a scale from A to E. The intersection of
Richardson Road and Route 28 was rated at a LOS"F". It is important to note that this information
was based upon previous recorded traffic flows which for 1992 were based on previous data of the
adjusted average daily traffic flow of 20, 641 and not the current calculation 24,448 vehicles per day.
Accident retrwds indicate that ID accidents were recorded at the intersection of Route 28 and
Richardson Road during 1988 when the previous nursing home use was still in operation- In 1993,
when the nursing home was closed, 7 accidents were recorded at the intersection.
Trip Generation Estimates:
Utilizing the Institute of Transpiration Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation manual, staff calculated the
following comparison information between the previous use and the proposed use.
Nursing Home Use- Land Use Code 620 Assisted Living Facility
Congregate Care Facility-Land Use Code 252

Ridhardson Road Considerations:-
Richardson Road is a small residential street between and connecting Route 28 and Great Marsh
Road. It will be the only outlet in this road segment that will not be signalized (Old Stage Road is
Signaled and Phinney's Lane is planned to be signaled). With the introduction of a signalized
intersection at Phinney's Lane and Route 28, coordination of the signals may provide sufficient time
for permitting safer left turning Movements out from Richardson Road.
Richardson Road is a popular pedestrian way. Local residents walk to the commercial area on Route
28 and when the nursing home was operating, its resident and guests utilized it heavily for outdoor
fresh air walks. No sidewalks eadst on the road and pedestrians are forced to wails on the road
pavement. The speed can be high on the road and residents have expressed concern to limit the
speed. Known drainage problem areas are located just north of the locus and at it bend just north of
Gina Court. The later drainage problem has also been the site of numerous winter accidents cause
by freezing water on the roadway.
Staff would suggest that under section 4-4.5 Z(D)(3)the Board should give serious
consideration conditioning the Speciai Permit request with the requirements for:
• The two drainage problem areas be solved and
G A pedestrian walk be created the length of Richardson Road (suggested condition ---).
Comprehensive Plan Considerations:
In 1993, during the drafting of the Comprehensive Plan and the plan's "Centerville Village Plan"
Component and the "Centerville Route 28 Corridor"Appendix study, this particular building was of
high concern. The 37,331 sq.ft. building represents 16% of the all building floor area within the HE
Zoning District and fortunately the grounds have been maintained and the building limited in
deterioration. The plan directly called out this vacant building and expressed the objective to get the
building reused and improved to today's standards. The rehabilitation and reuse of this structue
would be consistent with the objective of the Comprehensive Plan.
In consideration for future uses in this activity center, the Comprehensive Plan call for"maintaining
existing uses', to which this proposed change in use from a nursing home to an assisted living facility
would seem to be in compliance with. Key action proposals of the Plan for this area call for
"Improved Route 28 design and landscaping, provide pedestrian linkage and screen parking lots."
The Health and Human Services section of the plan also cites the need for services and facility for
the"rapidly growing elderly population that will require more care and attention." It is well known that
assisted living facilities are in short supply within the Town and in shorter supply are affordable
assisted living facilities.
Plan Recommendations:
Although the site plan has readjusted the parking situation on Richardson Road still is not in
compliance with Section 3-3.6 (6) Special Screening Standards, that requires a 10 foot green strip
abutting an existing roadway. to addition Section 4-4.5(2)(4) requires "increase of open space or
vegetated buffers and screening along adjoining lots and roadways.' Staff would recommend that 6 .parking spaces to the south of the entrance facing to Richardson Road and the first parking space
located immediately along Richardson Road at the entrance to the rear parking lot area be removed
and reconfigured elsewhere on-site to meet these requirements for the green strip.
Those spaces could be located to the north of the rront of the building and/or to the rear parking lot
area in proximity to the area of the proposed expansion.

Re: Benchmark Assisted Living
Dear Ralph:
After reviewing the Board of Fire Prevention regulations it appears that Regulated Seating
is required for institutional q use with the provisions of 527 CMR 2905 Table 1. Regulated Seating
r � g
includes upholstered furniture that would be owned by the occupants of the residential units
within Harbor Point at Centerville, an Assisted Living Facility.
Under the State Building Code, Assisted Living Residences which'are certified as such by
the Executive Office of Elder Affairs shall be classified in the Residential use group.
Although portions of an assisted living residence which are used for any use other than
residential shall be classified in accordance with the intended use. It does not seem correct to
classify units in which residents live as being an area of the building that is used for a use other
than residential.
I know you have some concern regarding portions of assisted living residences that have
persons with Alzheimer's disease. I believe your concern is that these resident's units are in some
way"locked". In fact, at Harbor Point I am advised that none of the resident's rooms are locked
by Harbor Point. Each person in their unit, after they enter it, can lock the door against persons
entering without permission. But it is not a"locked"unit against a resident's will. Each person is
free to enter and leave their individual home at will.
Each resident with Alzheimer's disease wears a bracelet. Except in the case of a fire
emergency, as any such person approaches a door to leave their wing or neighborhood within the
building, the door would lock electronically. This locking system, however, is automatically
deactivated if there is a fire alarm within the building. In such an emergency no person is
restricted from entering or leaving their neighborhood within the building or the building itself.
Town of Barnstable
Att: Mr. Ralph Crossen
October 16, 1998

In my opinion, an institutional rating for the building is not warranted first, under the
provision of the building code requiring classification of assisted living residences in Use Group R
and secondly, because of the actual residential use being unrestricted as I have set forth.
It is my opinion that those portions of an assisted living residence that might be classified
{ other than residential would be in those portions of properties that are common areas or devoted
to some other use such as the beauty salon, bank, mail room etc.. These other functions and areas
are not within a persons"home". If this were not the case, an assisted living residence such as
Harbor Point that has only persons with Alzheimer's disease would have no portion of it that
would be classified in the Ruse group. This is not consistent with 780 CMR 310.1.
We agreed several years ago that if the Centerville Nursing Home was kept the same size
and simply changed to an assisted living center within, it would not be a change of use under the
Zoning By-law. I believe it was on this basis that you issued a building permit for certain interior
remodeling work at the building. I do not believe this zoning classification controls classifications
under the State Building Code. Since state law requires that the assisted living residence allows
every resident to retain and use their own personal property in the resident's living area so as to
maintain individuality and personal dignity, it appears to me that the building code requiring
assisted living residences to be classified in the R use group is consistent and was adopted to
provide for allowing the provisions for the use and operation of assisted living residences not to
be in conflict with the building code.
In my opinion, the various provisions of the state law and the Code of Massachusetts
Regulations to be reasonable must be interpreted in a consistent manner. It is my opinion that this
is accomplished by the Executive Office of Elder Affairs stating that Harbor Point at Centerville is
an Assisted Living Residence and the building code stating that assisted living residences which
are certified as such by the Executive Office of Elder Affairs shall be classified in the residential
use group as applicable. The Executive Office of Elder Affairs does not classify Harbor Point at
Centerville as other than an assisted living residence even though it only has residents with
Alzheimer's disease. I think it is therefore reasonable to say that the provision of 70 CMR 310.1
stating that assisted living residences are to be classified in a residential use group requires you as
the building commissioner under the building code change the building code classification from I
to R
Thank you for reviewing this issue again.
Very truly yours,
