Other Information: Please see the attached site plan, "PRELIMINARY SITE STUDIES <br />12/31/09, TWW CITYCHINESE CHRISTIAN CHURCH". In addition, we submitthis <br />additional supporting commentary: <br />Additional Sunqortine Commentarv <br />How does the or000sed use of the 2755 Lone Lake Road site bv T4C fit with current <br />Business Land Use Reeulations (adopted Julv 20061� <br />The current zonina of the site is "B-3" General Business District and is described in Sect <br />1005.05 as follows: <br />'The 8-3 General Business District is designed for general retail uses in individual <br />buildings or strip centers which face and front on a state or county road, It allows for <br />larger indoor ond exterior sa/es and fast food sales than the 8-2 District. The 8-3 General <br />Business District is intended for certain areas designated as 8 Business area in the <br />Comprehensive Plan.' <br />As mentioned above the regional nature and unique character and uses of T4C are <br />appropriate to the existing B-3 classification, although not currently permitted: <br />Permitted. Accessorv and Conditional uses are shown in Section 1005 015 <br />This table identifies "churches" in the same line as "public/private colleges and schools' <br />and only allows their inclusion by Conditional Use Permit in the B-1 Zoning District of all <br />the zoning districts. There are several significant differences between T4C and public <br />and private schools or colleges, in that the children are almost always accompanied by <br />their parents as a family, arriving together from around the metro area by automobile <br />once or twice a week, instead of the segregated daytime use of the schools which would <br />be locally populated with more typical foot traffic The scale of the church is also much <br />smaller— on a building scale vs. the campus scale of the colleges. <br />Additional Rcquired Inibrmation.
