Planning Case No. 574-99 Property Involved: 7687 Long Lake Road Discussion regarding a request for a Conditional Use Permit for Sunrise United Methodist Church and a Development Review to allow an expansion to the Church facility. Applicant: Vanman Companies (Representing Sunrise) The applicant was present. Planning Associate Ericson gave the staff report as follows: The applicant, Vanman Companies, representing the property owner, Sunrise United Methodist Church, is requesting approval of a Conditional Use Permit and Development Review to allow for the expansion of their Church facility located at 7687 Long Lake Road. The Church has been located at this site since 1957, and predates the existence of Mounds View as a City. Planning Associate Ericson indicated the Church was damaged beyond repair in 1965, after a tornado struck the area, and was completely renovated the following year. He noted that the Church and the architect were presented an award for the design of the structure. Planning Associate Ericson stated the proposed expansion will serve as additional space within the sanctuary and worship areas, and will provide for additional child care and Sunday school areas toward the rear of the Church. The expansion will also provide office space for the pastor and other church workers, and add a meeting room and multi-use space facility. He explained the total area of the expansion is approximately 7,400 square feet, which would bring the total square footage of the • Church facility to 20,464 square feet.
