Item No. 14
NAME:
LOCATION:
The Church of the Lord
Jesus Christ House of
Prayer Conditional Use
Permit (Z-5042)
The southeast corner of
Loren and East 9th
Streets.
OWNER/APPLICANT: Ronald and Linda Jenkins
PROPOSAL:
To construct a 3,200 square feet church building
(130 -capacity) and 10 parking spaces on 0.32 +/- acres of
land that is zoned "R-2."
ORDINANCE DESIGN STANDARDS:
1. Site Location
Adjacent to a collector street (East 9th Street) and a
residential street (Loren Street) [see City Engineer
Comment note #6].
2. Compatibility with Neighborhood
This site is abutted by single family to the south and
east, vacant land to the west, and vacant land and
single family located to the north across East 9th
Street. This particular proposal is not compatible
with the surrounding area (see note #5, Analysis). A
church use properly sited would be, however, with the
surrounding area.
3. On -Site Drives and Parkin
The proposal contains 10 parking spaces with the access
to be taken from an alley way (appears to be legally
open but is not physically open).

4. Screening and Buffers
The applicant is proposing to meet all city codes.
5. Analysis
The staff feels that the use is compatible but not this,
particular proposal. The proposal would be a gross
over -building of the site. Ordinance requirements for
a church with a capacity of 130 would require
26 parking spaces. It is obvious that the current
proposal cannot adequately park the proposed 10 cars.
Also, the alley would have to be constructed to provide
access.
6. City EngineerComments
East 9th Street is collector street under the current
Master Street Plan but will be deleted (changed to
East 10th Street) by the Master Street Plan Amendment
that is awaiting Board of Directors action.
7. Staff Recommendation
The staff supports the proposed use but cannot support
the proposed plan. The staff recommends denial of the
existing proposal.
