{ Conditional use permits are granted by the Commission, subject to appropriate conditions and
safeguards, when the Commission finds:
a
j A That the proposed use meets all the minimum standards established in the Zoning
Ordinance for this type of use;
B. That the proposed use is in harmony with the purpose and intent of the zoning
ordinance and. the plan for physical development of the district as embodied in the
comprehensive plan for the development of he City;
C. That the proposed use will not he detrimental to the health, welfare,.and safety of the
surrounding neighborhood or its occupants, nor be substantially or permanently injurious
to neighboring property.
(See sec. 14, Ordinance 1638)
The P.R.C. reviewed this. project on September 21, 1994. .The Zoning Board of Adjustment has
determined that the expansion will`not require upgrading of the property. Therefore the church retains
its legal nonconforming status. The property has gravel parking and may continue to remain as a
nonconforming parking area: until significant sited changes are proposed that effect the site's parking
requirements. If such changes do occur, total compliance with all of the current zoning ordinance
parking lot requirements must be met.
