NEW BUSINESS:
1. REQUEST FOR CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
• APPLICANT: Immanuel Temple
LOCATION: 709 East Montrose Street
REQUEST: Conversion of an existing vacant structure into a Church Fellowship Hall
in the C-1 (Light Commercial District).
Mr. Harker explained that the applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Fermit to
convert an existing vacant commercial building located at 709 East Montrose Street.
The existing building is a single story structure of 630 square feet. Historically, the
building has been used for various commercial uses including a grocery store/Bar B-Q
and most recently a beauty shop. The applicant's submittal includes an explanation
covering the need for a Fellowship Hall.
Mr. Harker stressed that staff would recommend against any building conversion or
modification that would increase intensity of use due to the existing limitations of the
site which currently has severely limited off-street parking capability. However, since
the proposed use will not increase presently permitted land use intensity and does
not appear to have any direct adverse effect on the surrounding community, staff
recommends approval subject to the following conditions in addition to the standard
conditions:
1. The property must be developed in substantial accordance with an
approved site plan.
2. The property may be used as a Church Fellowship Hall only. No
expansion of the use or additions to this facility shall be permitted
except as approved by another Conditional Use Permit.
3. The structure is to be inspected by the Fire Marshall for life safety
requirements, all requirements must be met prior to any certificate of
occupancy being issued.
4. The structure is to be inspected by the County Building Inspector and all
building code violations must be corrected prior to a certificate of
occupancy being issued.
5. All landscape buffers shall be installed according to City code which
would include perimeter hedge and tree requirements including a
