Family (City Ordinance / Zoning Code / Chapter 155 Article 9 Part 5)
An individual or two or more persons related by blood, marriage, state-approved foster home placement, or
court-approved adoption—or up to three unrelated persons—that constitute a single housekeeping unit. A
family does not include any society, nursing home, club, boarding or lodging house, dormitory, fraternity, or
sorority.
Family Community Residence (City Ordinance / Zoning Code / §155.4202. H.)
A family community residence is a community residence that provides a relatively permanent living
arrangement for people with disabilities where, in practice and under its rules, charter, or other governing
document, does not limit how long a resident may live there. The intent is for residents to live in a family
community residence on a long-term basis, typically a year or longer. Oxford House is an example of a
family community residence.
Transitional Community Residence (City Ordinance / Zoning Code / §155.4202. I.)
A transitional community residence community residence is a community residence that provides a
temporary living arrangement for four to ten unrelated people with disabilities with a limit on length of
tenancy less than a year that is measured in weeks or months as determined either in practice or by the
rules, charter, or other governing document of the community residence. A community residence for people
engaged in detoxification is an example of a very short-term transitional community residence.
Recovery Community (City Ordinance / Zoning Code / §155.4203. B.)
A recovery community consists of multiple dwelling units in a single multi-family structure that are not held
out to the general public for rent or occupancy, that provides a drug-free and alcohol-free living
arrangement for people in recovery from drug and/or alcohol addiction, which, taken together, do not
emulate a single biological family and are under the auspices of a single entity or group of related entities.
Recovery communities include land uses for which the operator is eligible to apply for certification from the
State of Florida. When located in a multiple-family structure, a recovery community shall be treated as a
multiple family structure under building and fire codes applicable in Pompano Beach.
