A “one-family

developmentally disabled – 15 or less only. A “family”
consists of one or more persons each related to the other by
blood (or adoption), together with such blood relations
respective spouses, who are living together in a single
dwelling and maintaining a common household. A “family”
includes any domestic servants and not more than one
gratuitous guest residing with said “family”. A “family”
also consists of the residents of a family home. An
otherwise qualifying building does not lose its status as a
Class A-1, single-family dwelling because a bed-and-
breakfast establishment is operated in the building if (1)
the bed-and-breakfast establishment has operated
continuously in the building as of January 16, 2003; and (2)
the operator of the bed-and-breakfast establishment files an
application for a bed-and-breakfast establishment license no
later than the effective date of this amendatory ordinance;
provided, however, that a Class A-1, single-family dwelling
containing a bed-and- breakfast establishment will lose its
status as a Class A-1, single-family dwelling if the
building or the bed- and-breakfast establishment is altered,
expanded, enlarged or newly constructed after the effective
date of this amendatory ordinance.
