Mr. Morris stated 4 vehicles can be parked in the main parking lot, and 3 vehicles on Tempest Lane. Mrs. Ballard, asked if the 10 beds include night time staff, to which Mr. Morris stated the staff will work in three 8 hour shifts, so the beds are not included for the staff.

In regards to number of beds, Mr. Morris stated the other facility has five bedrooms, two baths, and eight residents and this is larger home. Mr. Still asked if the facility will be regulated by Arizona State or Health requirements, to which Mr. Morris affirmed. Chairman Harris asked if Mr. Schmeling could address the parking requirements.
