2. REQUEST NARRATIVE <br /> BENEDICTINE HEALTH CENTER <br /> (lit) <br /> AT INNSBRUCK <br /> Benedictine Health System <br /> Independent Living: Live well,with fewer responsibilities and more possi• - / <br /> The Benedictine llealth Center at Innsbruck <br /> is committed to serving the needs of this community. <br /> Our research has shown that the New Brighton area is faced with a significant increase <br /> in the number of adults age 75 and older. Older adults in our community want to live as <br /> independently as possible, yet many may struggle with home maintenance, isolation, and/or <br /> personal health issues. <br /> The Benedictine Health Center at Innsbruck is growing its services to help these older <br /> adults remain in their home community while receiving the help they need. Benedictine <br /> Health Center at Innsbruck will be expanding to offer active seniors a home in our new <br /> independent, assisted living and memory care apartments where seniors can remain as their <br /> needs change. <br /> PRD WITH A ZONING CLASSIFICATION OF 3B <br /> The Benedictine Health Center at Innsbruck has served the New Brighton Community for <br /> 65 years. We are requesting a change in our current zoning classification of R-3B (main lot) <br /> and B-1 (3 east lots) to a PRD with a R-3B zoning classification. This will allow us to add to the <br /> senior services we will provide to New Brighton in the future by creating a Continuing Care <br /> Retirement Community (CCRC). We will be adding independent living, assisted living and <br /> assisted living memory care to the current services of transitional care and skilled nursing. The <br /> change will provide our residents the opportunity to remain in our community as their needs <br /> change. They will be able to "Age in Place". <br /> The current staffing for the transitional care and skilled nursing residents is variable with a <br /> peak number at 76 during normal business hours and tapers to lower numbers of staffing <br /> during the night shift. We anticipate 25 additional staff position per shift for the new <br /> apartments. This staffing is 24 hours per day and 365 days per year. <br /> The PRD classification provides the framework for us to increase our density to accomplish this <br /> goal.The recently adopted City of New Brighton Comprehensive Plan allows us to change <br /> our site from Medium Density Residential to High Density Residential. Our understanding is <br /> this will increase the maximum density currently permitted, thus increasing the number of <br /> allowable units to 50 per acre. The zoning classification is R-3B. The density analysis is based <br /> upon the number apartments. <br /> FEBRUARY 14,2020 LAND USE APPLICATION: 1101 BLACK OAK DRIVE, NEW BRIGHTON, MN 55112 3 <br />
