of Salt Lake City, Utah, 1965, relating to transitional zoning, by adding
thereto a new section, to be known as Section 51-6-12, relating to group
homes in a residential district.
Be it ordained by the Board of Commissioners of Salt Lake City, Utah:

group homes in residential districts, to read as follows:
"Sec. 51-6-12. Group homes in residential districts. Where
not otherwise authorized by this title, the board of adjustment
may permit the use of land in a residential "R-4" or "R-5" district
to be used as a group home for educational or supervised training
purposes or both, where such group home provides family-type
living facilities for handicapped persons. Approval of such use
shall be granted only pursuant to a public hearing by the board of
adjustment. Notice of the time and place of such hearing shall be
published at least five days prior to such hearing as provided for
in section 51-3-6. No such use shall be approved unless the board
of adjustment finds that such use is in accord with the general
purpose and intent of the comprehensive zoning ordinances of this
city, that an approval of the development is in the best interest
of the community, that the home will be in keeping with the char-
acter of the neighborhood in which it is being proposed, and will
not adversely affect the desirability or the stability of the area
in which it is to be located. Following the hearing the board shall
have the authority to deny the use if, in its opinion, such use
would not be in keeping with the area or would in any way change
the character or value of a neighborhood or if the proposed home
does not meet the stated purpose of providing a family-type atmos-
phere and takes on the appearance of a custodial center. In the
event the board approves such a facility, it shall have the power
to impose any reasonable conditions deemed necessary to protect
the neighborhood or to insure an operation of the type of group
home which will fit the particular neighborhood in which it is
located, including limiting its use to less than eight persons in
a residential "R-4" zone or twelve persons in a residential "R-5"
zone.
"No such use shall be approved unless the following conditions
are complied with:
"1. Applicant has obtained and submitted to the board of
adjustment a favorable recommendation from the planning
