Item No. 7 .B <br /> Staff Report No. <br /> Meeting Date: November 22, 1999 <br /> Type of Business: Consent <br /> City of Mounds View Staff Report <br /> To: Honorable Mayor & City Council <br /> From: James Ericson, Planning Associate <br /> Item Title/Subject: Set a Public Hearing for 7:05 pm, Monday, December 13, 1999, <br /> to Consider Resolution 5387, a Resolution approving a <br /> Conditional Use Permit and Development Review for the Sunrise <br /> United Methodist Church at 7687 Long Lake Road. <br /> Date of Report: November 18, 1999 <br /> Background: <br /> The Church is planning an expansion of their existing 13,000 square-foot facility to add additional <br /> office space, a kitchen area, multi-purpose space and an expanded Sunday school area. The worship <br /> area will be expanded and reoriented to accommodate more seating, increasing from the existing 275 to <br /> the proposed 368. The total area of expansion will be approximately 7,500 square feet. <br /> This item was discussed at the Planning Commission on November 17, 1999, who directed staff to <br /> prepare a resolution recommending approval of this request. The Planning Commission will take <br /> action on this request on December 1, 1999. <br /> Discussion: <br /> Staff has reviewed in detail the specific CUP requirements relating to Churches and found them to be <br /> sufficiently addressed and satisfactory. In addition,the general CUP requirements and adverse effects <br /> criteria, which need to be addressed for any conditional use permit request, were also found to be <br /> sufficiently addressed and satisfactory. There are 98 parking stalls present on the site currently which <br /> satisfies the current requirements of one space per every four seats. With the expansion to 368 seats, <br /> the new requirement would be 92 stalls, which is still less than what exists currently. There are no <br /> plans to alter the parking lot. <br /> There does not appear to be any outstanding issues with this proposal and it is expected that the <br /> Planning Commission will forward a resolution recommending approval of this request. <br /> Recommendation: <br /> Set a Public Hearing for 7:05 pm, Monday, December 13, 1999, to Consider Resolution 5387, a <br /> Resolution approving a Conditional Use Permit and Development Review for the Sunrise United <br /> Methodist Church at 7687 Long Lake Road. <br /> James Ericson, Planner <br /> N:\DATA\GROUPS\COMDE V\DE VCASES\574-99\SUNRISE.CC 1 <br />
