The City Council received an inventory of group homes in the city Monday during its monthly study session that showed the city has 8.6 homes per 100,000 population compared with just 2.4 homes in the county.
Two Costa Mesa group homes, which cater to recovering drug and alcohol addicts, have applications pending with the city for conditional use permits.
The applications prompted a request by Councilwoman Linda Dixon to find out how many group homes there are in the city.
The report inventories all known group homes in the city, including ones for foster children, the developmentally disabled, recovering drug addicts and alcoholics, the homeless, victims of domestic violence, and senior citizens.
