Now, I'm not the most knowledgable person on this, but I think Puget 
Ridge co-housing had to have a commercial kitchen, though they were 
exempted from the two gender segregated bathroom bit (which often comes 
with the commercial kitchen....)

By the way, if any of you ever get a chance to visit the Puget Ridge 
kitchen, I'd really recommend it.  (It's gorgeous!  Custom made work 
table, plenty of buttspace and all!)
