1. The maximum density for CCRCs shall not exceed thirteen (13) units per acre. The permitted number of dwelling units shall be based upon the sum of all residential units and assisted living units. Nursing care beds shall not be counted towards the total number of permitted dwelling units; however, the number of nursing care beds allowed as part of a village approved planned development with a CCRC shall be determined by the village board based on actuarial data submitted by the applicant.
2. No lot line of a CCRC may be closer than two thousand six hundred forty feet (2,640') to the lot line of another such facility.

The village board may, as part of the planned development approval, grant a variance from the maximum height regulation in an amount not to exceed ten percent (10.0%) of the permitted building height, in order to allow the development to proceed. The standard for the village board to grant the variance shall be that the amount of additional building height is "de minimis" (i.e., meets the 10.0 percent or less threshold).

The CCRC operator shall provide written proof to the village as part of its application for planned development approval that such a preference program complies with applicable federal, state, county and local laws.
