NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Mounds View Planning Commission makes the following finding of fact related to this request: 1. The lot in question, 5145 Program Avenue, is zoned Planned Unit Development (PUD) and the allowed use for the site is office/flex. 2. The building in question remains vacant and as such the developer has requested an amendment to the PUD to allow for a church to occupy the site. 3. The proposed use should not create an excessive burden on any public facilities or utilities that serve the area. 4. The property is bordered to the north and west by industrial/business uses. To the south and east is Program Avenue. The change of use should have no depreciatory affects upon this area. 5. The appearance of the structure will not have an adverse effect on the PUD in that the exterior of the building would receive only slight modification.
