A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DIAMOND BAR
SUPPORTING SB 708 (DUTTON), WHICH REQUIRES A STATE LICENSED RESIDENTIAL CARE
FACILITY WITH SIX OR FEWER RESIDENTS TO OBTAIN A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FROM
THE HOSTING LOCAL AGENCY
WHEREAS, local agencies throughout California host state -licensed residential care facilities, many
in single-family residential neighborhoods; and
WHEREAS, those facilities housing six or less residents are not required to obtain a conditional use
permit (CUP) from the host agency, limiting the control and oversight of local agencies and officials;
and
WHEREAS, the decision to place and permit such facilities in these locations is made by the state,
often without the knowledge of local agencies and the residents of the hosting neighborhoods; and
WHEREAS, the safety and security of local agencies and neighborhood residents must be
represented when locating these facilities; and
WHEREAS S13 708 requires residential care facilities with six or less residents to obtain a conditional
use permit (CUP) from the hosting local agency; and
WHEREAS, requiring residential care facilities to obtain CUP helps to restore some control over the
placement of residential care facilities in single-family residential neighborhoods to the local agencies
that govern them
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Diamond Bar SUPPORTS
SB 708 (Dutton).
SECTION 1. That the City Council of the City of Diamond Bar shall adopt the Resolution and the City
