Item 17:
Public Hearing: RZ 07-004 Request for a Rezone of 7.23 acres from R-4
to L-O zone for the property located at 1615 W. 2nd Street for LOS Church
by Bob Niblett, Niblett & Associates Architects -1615 W. 2nd Street:
De Weerd: Item 17 is a Public Hearing on RZ 07-004. I will open this Public Hearing
with staff comments.
Canning: Madam Mayor, Members of the Council, this is the LDS project at Cherry and
2nd. The address is 1615 West 2nd Street. And it is located on the west side of Cherry
Lane, about a quarter mile west of Meridian Road. It's located on the south side of
West Cherry Lane. Sorry about that. All right. This is -- the application is for a rezone
and it's to rezone the church property from R-4 to L-O for future expansion of the
church. Churches are prohibited in the R-4 zone and so the use is currently
nonconforming. Right now they are not proposing to increase the square footage, it's
just a request for the rezone application. The Planning and Zoning Commission
recommended approval at their March 15th hearing. Rob Niblett, the applicant's
representative, spoke in favor. No one spoke in opposition, and AI Borton commented
in favor of extending West 4th Street and I will touch on that issue later. The key issues
of discussion by the Commission were the requirement for the applicant to dedicate
right of way and improve West 4th Street prior to occupancy for an expansion of the
church or a change in use of the site. The other issue was rezoning only the northeast
portion of the site and not the portion on the west side adjacent to West 4th Street, so
that West 4th Street could be improved with development of the west portion. So, they
tried to reach some compromise on the extension -- the issue with regard to extending
West 4th Street, but they ended up not making any changes to staff's initial
recommendation. So, obviously, the -- there is an outstanding issue before the City
Council on the part of the applicant and requiring the applicant to dedicate right of way,
improve West 4th Street along the entire west boundary of the site prior to occupancy of
any church expansion or change in use of the property. And that is currently proposed
as part of the development agreement. So, let me go through that in a little more detail
here. We have started to talk about this a little bit a couple weeks ago. Deklan
