PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: (OCTOBER 5, 1993) Staff reported that a call had been received from someone at a neighboring business indicating that children loading and unloading from vehicles stopped on 68th. Street were a problem; that tractor -trailer rigs use 68th. Street for access to the industrial area behind Victory Fellowship, and that it is dangerous for children to be crossing the street from stopped cars. Staff indicated that approval of the applicant's request needed to be contingent upon the Church providing an adequate off-street drop-off/pick-up area and restricting patrons of its school from dropping off or picking up children while the vehicles are stopped in the street. Chairman Walker asked the applicant if the Church would agree to this condition, and the Church's spokesperson indicated that the Church would accept the condition. The item was included on the consent agenda for approval and was passed by the Planning Commission with the vote of 8 ayes, no nays, 2 absent, no abstentions, and 1 open position. 2
