STAFF REPORT
Item: Public hearing and consideration of a Conditional Use Permit to permit an addition to the
Saint Thomas Episcopal Church site. (99 -700)
Applicant: David Woodcock for St. Thomas Episcopal Church
Item Summary: The request is for approval of the and associated site plan. The proposal changes
somewhat the additions to the site that were approved in 1992 by the Commission. The previously
approved changes included a new sanctuary to seat 238 people, a 1200 square foot addition to the
south end of the existing parish hall, a bell tower, a new 1800 square foot classroom building with
a future 5400 square foot expansion to its south and west, required detention facilities, and paving
as required of the existing gravel parking lot. The sanctuary, 1800 square foot classroom building,
detention pond, and gravel parking lot were constructed shortly after approval.
The revised plans for the remaining facilities include replacement of the existing parish hall for
with a larger, two story hall to total 12,360 square feet. A future office addition will replace the
existing learning center. The plans to add 5400 square feet of classroom building have been
replaced with a proposal to add a second 1800 square foot classroom building.
Item Background: A similar use and site plan were approved in 1992 by the Commission on the
subject tract.
Staff Recommendations: Section 14 of the Zoning Ordinance authorizes the existence of
conditional uses. The Commission may permit a conditional use subject to appropriate conditions
and safeguards, when after public notice and hearing the Commission finds that: (Staff comments
are in italics)
1. "The proposed use meets all the minimum standards established in the ordinance for the
type of use proposed." The proposed site plan meets all of the minimum ordinance
requirements.
2. "That the proposed use meets the purpose and intent of the ordinance and is in harmony
with the development policies and goals and objectives as embodied in the Comprehensive Plan for
Development of the City." This use is not in conflict with the Land Use Plan.
3. "That the proposed use will not be detrimental to the health, welfare, and safety of the
surrounding neighborhood or its occupants, nor be substantially or permanently injurious to
neighboring property." The public hearing is an opportunity for the Commission to measure the
potential impact on surrounding land uses.
"The Commission may impose additional reasonable restrictions or conditions to carry out the
spirit and intent of the ordinance and to mitigate adverse effects of the proposed use. These
requirements may include, but are not limited to, increased open space, loading and parking
requirements, additional landscaping, and additional improvements such as curbing, sidewalks and
screening."
Unless the public hearing brings to light any new information indicating potential negative
impacts, Staff recommends approval.
