CONCLUSION: Option #2 <br />Option #2 is a form of compromise and blends all findings to consider the interests of all <br />potential stakeholders. A limitation in size might be reasonable as long as the City Council <br />develops an appropriate rationale for what that limitation should be. However, the option does <br />not fully carry out the City's intended economic goals related to its commercial and light <br />industrial zoning districts and therefore may hinder the City's general planning objectives and <br />opportunities for economic growth and prosperity. <br />6.3 OPTION #3: Allow All "Assembly" Use Within Commercial Zonin¢ District; <br />Eliminate All "Assembly" Use (i.e., Religious and Non - Religious) from Light <br />Industrial Zoning District <br />Option #3 suggests allowing all assembly use (i.e., <br />religious and non - religious) within the commercial <br />zoning district and eliminating all "assembly" use <br />from the light industrial zoning district. This option <br />would provide a reasonable alternative to <br />applicants seeking places for assembly within the <br />City and work to treat assemblies equally within <br />the specific zoning districts. This option would also <br />fully preserve the light industrial zoning district as <br />an area of the City devoted specifically to industry - <br />oriented development and economic growth, and <br />thus meet the City's general planning goals. <br />Option #3 is to allow all types of assembly— religious and non - religious within the <br />commercial zoning district and eliminate all types of assembly from the light industrial zoning <br />district. As this option would exclude all assemblies from the light industrial zoning district, this <br />would also exclude places of worship. However, the commercial zoning district would now <br />allow for all types of assembly, including places of worship. This option would practically be <br />accomplished by eliminating the section pertaining to "assembly, meeting lodges, or convention <br />halls" under the light industrial zoning section of the Zoning Code and clarifying or defining the <br />terms that currently exist within the commercial zoning section. <br />Allowing all "assembly" use (religious and non - religious) within the commercial zoning <br />district may not align with the business - oriented objectives of the City's commercial zoning <br />district. However, an "assembly" more likely coincides with a commercial zoning district than <br />with a light industrial district. The City's commercial zoning districts already allow for secular <br />-22- <br />STUDY OF ASSEMBLIES, MEETING LODGES, AND CONVENTION HALLS <br />CITY OF SAINT ANTHONY VILLAGE <br />
