Passed in 1988 , City Council Resolution No. 2320 contained a "sunset" clause which effectively revokes the permit after a five year period. The attached letter more fully explains the applicants request. For review: In 1988, the Planning Commission and the City Council gave • approval for the location of a temporary accessory building at 7901 Red Oak Drive (Resolution No. 2320) . At the time of approval, both the Commission and the Council had concerns about the available off-street parking area on the site, the lack of an improved surface for those existing parking facilities and, the proposed use for the accessory building. In order to somewhat address those concerns, the approval for the temporary structure included the aforementioned sunset clause. The specific language of the Resolution stipulated that the temporary structure be removed after a five year period and replaced with a permanent building. Additionally, at the end of this five year period, the site (i.e. parking facilities and surface) were required to be upgraded to meet current City codes. The concern with the use of the building was addressed in a separate resolution. At this time, the applicant is requesting that an extension to City Council Resolution No. 2320 be granted to allow more time for the Church to assess its needs and options in relation to the site. I have provided all materials received as a part of this request in addition to all documents referenced in this memorandum. • • ~~ + ` ' ph� dT _`Imo. .7,.?L. - .._:-,:-.. : , ' - \ \\‘‘. \\ \ 14i i: 1.,/// - L /� - ri rL,- �y� Fa. - .-.�.-s..L. .=-:f. =` " •` - �' fl QNBN,1RCM UPON THE ROCK ,112329 7901 Red Oak Drive NE Mounds View, MN 55112/612-786-9555 ,MO'. \ n7 . r n;' v: r,-, 41lan Gordon Steck �% 3 Senior Pastor June 99, 1993 N RecBj =• wed tt: c; ' (P1t19t �ti 5df71£tiZ� Mounds View Planning Commission City of Mounds View 2401 Hihway 10 Mounds View, MN 55112 Attn: Paul Harrington RE: Extension of Resolution No. 2320: Resolution approving conditional use permit for a temporary accessory vR-1 District.- � OaDrive, , , structure to ,�e placed in a D.istr_�:,. �:1�. 7901 Red �� Cni��c.n • Upon the Rock. Dear Commissioners: Church Upon the Rock hereby respectfully requests a two-yeai extension oS Resolution No. - � 0, The accessory structure is being usedby the Church and _ 232� the related school as classrooms and is vital to both entities. The requested extension is needed because the Church, which had planned to move prior to the expiration of Resolution No. 2320, has been delayed in its plan to move. . Because of marked growth over the last several years and because of the limitations of the Church's current facility, the Church and School have been seeking a new home. The Church believed its hopes were realized when in December 1992, the Church purchased Rice Creek Center in New Brighton. The Church and School's plan and desire was to co-habitate in the retail center with the existing businesses; but to this day, the Church has failed to obtain • the appropriate special use permits from the City of New Brighton. The Church has several options to pursue in the midst of its struggle to find an adequate home. These options include: A. Sell the Rice Creek Center and begin our site search from square one; or B. Perhaps, trade the Center for land and buildings; or G. (and this is what the church least desires to do) liti 'ate with the • City of New Brighton. Jesus said,"Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine,and acts upon them,may be compared to a wise man,who built his house upon the rock.And the rain descended,and the floods came,and the winds blew,and burst against that house;and yet it did not fall,for it had been founded upon the rock."
