North Springs Church CUP page 2 On August 10, the City Council approved Ordinance No. 04 -09, an amendment to the zoning ordinance that allows public, educational, and religious buildings as conditional uses in the Limited and General Business zones. This ordinance amendment became effective on September 17, 2009. The church proposes to move into the existing building. The plans compare with the General Business zoning standards as shown in the table below. * variances for building and parking setbacks granted in 2004 SITE PLAN AND CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT Building: The existing building reflects the design elements of the City Hall, Community State Bank, and other buildings along Lake Drive. These include a peaked, green metal roof, masonry walls, and earthtone colors. The average height of the pitched roof is 22 ft. This is the technical building height, according to the definition in the zoning ordinance (The roof peak is approximately 30 ft. high.) The building footprint is approximately 11,500 sf. The trash enclosure on the east side of the building was constructed of materials to match the principal building. The gates were not installed and this must be done. The building is set back 80' from Lois Lane. The parking is set back 15'. Since the Lois Lane side is the shorter side fronting on a road, it is considered the front for measuring setbacks. This makes the east the side lot line, where the setbacks of 10' and 20' comply with the requirement. The following discussion recounts variances granted in 2004 for setbacks from Lake Drive.
