Planners to review assisted-living facility

Tonight the Springboro Planning Commission is to review and possibly vote on plans for a 15,685-square foot assisted-living facility on property 600 feet southeast of the corner of LytleFive Points Road and North Main Street, Ohio 741 in Springboro. The 6.3 acre property is currently vacant. The plan calls for a 24-unit assisted-living facility operated by Beehive Homes.

The plan was reviewed at the commission’s Oct. 11 work session. The applicant was authorized to submit a plan for formal approval at a future meeting. A similar plan was on the Sept. 13 work session agenda, but was withdrawn.

Clearing and grading of the site as well as footer/foundation work has already begun. Clearing and grading is permitted on private, undeveloped property, subject to compliance with sedimentation and erosion control regulations as well as the marking of trees for compliance with landscape and buffering requirements of the local code. Footer-foundation work is also permitted at the risk of the property owner, subject to compliance with a preliminary review by the planning commission and issuance of a building permit.

Burkhardt Engineering Co. made the application on behalf of CS Five Point LLC. The zoning permits the proposed use and building.

The commission meets at 6 p.m. today at Springboro City Hall, 320 W. Central Ave. in Springboro. For more information, call 937-748-4343.
