<br /> RE: Extension of Resolution _',To. 2320:
<br /> Resolution approving conditional use permit for a temporary accessory
<br /> structure to be placed in a R-1 District at 7901 Red Oak give, Church '
<br /> Upon the Rock.
<br /> Dear Commissioners: •
<br /> Church Upon the Rock hereby respectfully requests a two-year extension of
<br /> Resolution No. 2320. The accessory structure is being used by the Church and
<br /> the related school as classrooms and is vital to both entities.
<br /> The requested extension is needed because the Church, which had planned to
<br /> move prior to the expiration of Resolution No. 2320, has been delayed in its
<br /> plan to move.
<br /> Because—of—marked growth over the last several years and because of the
<br /> limitations of the Church's current facility, the Church and School have been
<br /> seekinga new home. The Church believed its hopes were realized when in-__-
<br /> December 1992, the Church purchased Rice Creek Center in New Brighton. The
<br /> Church and School's plan and desire was to co-habitate in the retail center
<br /> with the existing businesses; but to this day, the Church has failed to obtain
<br /> the appropriate special use permits from the City of New Brighton.
<br /> The Church has several options La pursue in-Lhe midst &f i-t-s trtugg to find
<br /> ' an adequiate Home. These options include:
<br /> A. Serl—the-1R-ie Creek Ceiitei and -beg-in oursi-tesearsh--from square -- _ -
<br /> one; or
<br /> B. Perhaps, trade the Center for land and buildings; or
<br /> C. (and this is what the church least desires to do) litigate with the
<br /> City of New Brighton.
<br /> Jesus said,"Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine,and acts upon them,may be compared to a wise
<br /> man,who built his house upon the rock.And the rain descended,and the floods came,and the winds blew,and burst
<br /> • against that house;and yet it did not fall,for it had been founded upon the rock." Matthew 7:24,25(NAS)
