HomeMy WebLinkAbout2046-P DATE: August 16, 2010 TO: Planning Commission and City Council FROM: Stephen C. Richardson, Planning Manager SUBJECT: Consider a request for an amended specific use permit to allow a church in an RS (Residential Single Family Dwelling) District and an RM-H (Residential Multiple Dwelling-Highest Density) District. FILE: 2046-P STAFF REPORT The Planning Manager recommends approval subject to the following condition: 1. Provide the necessary landscaping in the designated islands within the parking lots. 2. Sidewalks shall be constructed in phases with Phase I sidewalks being constructed prior to issuance of Certificate of Occupancy. Fittz & Shipman, Inc., representing New Light Church World Outreach and Worship Center, Inc., has requested an amended specific use permit to allow a church in an RS (Residential Single Family Dwelling) District and RM-H (Residential Multiple Family Dwelling-Highest Density) District at 1630 Folsom. The property comprises 7.338 acres of land. In January, 2007, City Council approved a specific use permit for the church to build on the subject property subject to the construction of a screening fence, deleting the driveway on Treadway and installing directional lighting. The proposed church facility was to include a 1,000 seat, 20,000 sq. ft. sanctuary, a 17,000 sq. ft. family life center and related parking. As part of the building permit approval process, DD#6 required that a detention basin be constructed on the southeast corner of the property. A building permit was issued for the Family Life Center in April, 2008. This amended specific use permit has been submitted to revise the site plan to correlate with the approved building permit plans and indicate future development for the site. Phase One consists of the two story, 20,033 sq. ft. Family Life Center that will include a 562 seat worship center, 156 parking spaces and a 48 sq. ft. sign that is 12 feet tall. Future construction will include a two story, 20,000 sq. ft. sanctuary and additional parking and landscaping. Sidewalks are being constructed along both Folsom and Crow Roads. Exhibits are attached.
