Explanation
Rezoning Application Z03-077
APPLICANT: Triedstone Missionary Baptist Church; c/o Patricia Heinrich, S and H Engineering; 7956 Eric Court; Lewis Center, Ohio 43035.
PROPOSED USE: Activity center and parking for an existing church.
DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval (4-1) on December 11, 2003.
MILO-GROGAN AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The requested CPD, Commercial Planned Development District will allow the development of a 24,050 square-foot activity center in conjunction with an existing church. This application brings together all previously approved existing parking and the respective development standards, and expands the area of the current CPD for four additional parking areas and the activity center site. The activity center will provide a service to those in need throughout the surrounding neighborhood, offering a clothing pantry, feeding of the homeless, youth and sports programs, as well as open gym, and other church-related activities. The proposed development text incorporates use restrictions, fencing and/or landscaping around parking areas, street trees, building material and roof pitch commitments, mechanical screening, and lighting controls to be more compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. The 172-parking space variance will not negatively affect the neighborhood because the activity center will not be open during church services.
