Site Location: Calvary Apostolic, - U.P.C./Conditional Use Permit 9400 Block Stagecoach Road eastside of street Calvary Apostolic, U.P.C. for the Terry Trust To construct a new church facility with provision for future day care center for 50 children. The site is approximately one -quarter mile south of Baseline Road in an area that is involved in floodplain/floodway. The site is undisturbed with trees and natural growth obscuring the building site. 2. compatibility with Neighborhood: This is an area that has seen little change in recent years. The only change of note is that at Baseline and Stagecoach where there are several new commercial buildings. There are some residential uses across the street, but, these are on large lot rural type development. This church - use should be of little effect on environment or traffic. 3. On -Site Drives and Parking: The site plan presented will work for this use with minor adjustments to meet Landscape and Traffic Engineers requirements. 4. � reening and Buffers: Areas set aside for street and land use buffers meet and exceed ordinance requirements. Any adjacent residential areas to the north, south and east not screened year round by existing vegetation will require additional screening. This additional screening can either be evergreen plantings or a six foot high opaque wood fence with its face directed outward. The Landscape Ordinance requires six percent or 737 square feet of the interior of the proposed parking lot be landscaped. Interior islands must be of at least 100 square FILE NO.; 'j,-4325-A --[Cont.) feet. Two trees are required within the interior landscaping of the parking lot. Curb and gutter or another approved border is required to protect landscaped areas from vehicular traffic. S. City Engineer's Comment$: The site appear to lie in the 100 year floodplain. The floodplain should be shown in order to determine if a SFHA Development Permit is applicable for this work. A grading permit is required prior to any work. Stagecoach is a minor arterial with 60 foot pavement with sidewalk. Dedicate 45 feet of right-of-way from centerline. AHTD permit will be required. The City Engineer will approve a 2 year deferral of 100% In -Lieu amount determined by a professional engineer for street improvements. Stormwater detention analysis is required. Driveway apron should be concrete and be 90 degrees with respect to Stagecoach. A minimum 27 foot driveway is required. 6. Utility Comments: Water: A water main is under construction that can serve this property. A pro rata front footage charge of $15 per front foot will apply to connection in addition to the normal connection fee. Sewer: Sewer main required with easements. 7. Staff Analysisz The subject site is well -suited for use as proposed given the large floodplain involvement paralleling Stagecoach Road. The Highway Department plans for widening this road are developing. The plan for a principal arterial road removes any question of traffic circulation or access. Given the size of the tract (3 ac.) there is room for some future growth of church buildings and activity. Without specific plans included here the church may have to return to the planning commission for future expansion. Staff accepts the day care as a future use with an understanding that specific plans will be required for our approval prior to obtaining any building or site permits. A 10 percent structural expansion limitation is imposed by ordinance absent returning to the Commission. Staff has determined that the three acres is a purchase out of a larger site. This requires that a platting of the church site and the balance of the original property be accomplished. This could be handled at staff level after approval of the conditional use permit and direction by the Commission. This plat and the requirement for street improvements must Fa .FILE -4 -A n be reviewed by the Board of Directors since the applicant desires a waiver of Stagecoach Road improvements. 8. 5taff Recmmendatio : Approval as filed subject to staff comments above. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: (SEPTEMBER 19, 1995) The Staff presented its recommendation which was approval of the conditional use permit as filed.

The motion passed by a vote of 8 ayes, 0 nays, 2 absent and 1 open position. 3
