Attachment D is� Commissioner Boerigter noted that, once the zoning code was rewritten, and unless there was a run of is3 church use applications between now and that rewrite, the B-3 District would no longer exist so the �sa problem would not exist. ?55 Commissioner Gisselquist concurred with Commissioner Boerigter; observing that the Comprehensive ies Plan provided no guidance for church uses; and that if you were "grandfathered in" you were fine, but if �s� not, there were limited options available. Commissioner Gisselquist opined that he was not supportive i sa of spot zoning, and he personally didn't like to contribute to something that could be perceived as such; �e�� however he noted that the Commission was attempting to make do with the zoning currently in place. �so Commissioner Gisselquist noted that his initial reaction when reviewing the proposal had been that this is i seemed to be an overly broad solution to a unique situation; however, when listening to the rationale of �sz Commissioner Boerigter, he concurred with his comments. Commissioner Gisselquist noted that newer iss churches were beyond the smaller neighborhood, traditional churches, with a multitude of different ?sa service options; and opined that this may be an appropriate location for a church of this size. iss Commissioner Wozniak noted that when he first saw the proposal, his reaction had been negative, �e>t> given the location next to a car dealership that appeared inappropriate; however, he noted the parallels �si between a regional business and regional church use such as this; and opined that he was persuaded �st� by the arguments of the City's Imagine Roseville 2025 community vision. Commissioner Wozniak ise opined that this is not the right site for a church due to its isolation; and concurred with staff that a i �o location in the Twin Lakes Redevelopment Area would be more appropriate. n� Commissioner Boerigter recognized staff's recommendation, noting that he seldom criticized their i �? rationale; however, he questioned whether the bottom line was that this site was seen as more valuable ��s for a tax revenue-generating use than the church us. ��n Commissioner Wozniak opined that he would prefer to remove the tax issue from consideration, and ��s focus on land use only; further opining that he was persuaded by the arguments that tax revenues were � �s equitable on one side of I-35 or the other; but continued to oppose the proposed location due to its � n isolation and inappropriateness with adjacent business uses. i �a MOTION � n� Member Boerigter moved, seconded by Member Gisselquist to RECOMMEND TO THE CITY �uo COUNCIL APPROVAL of the proposed ZONING TEXT AMENDMENT for Twin City Chinese t�i Christian Church to allow churches as a permitted use in the Generel Business District. �u? Commissioner Wozniak sought clarification from staff on the ramifications of the proposed action. ies City Planner Thomas Paschke advised that staff would take action for approval into consideration as it i�� proceeded with the zoning code rewrite and whether this as a permitted use under the B-3 Zoning ��5 District, if ultimately approved by the City Council and whether additional parameters should be created �s � to allow churches in the future in regional business districts or whether to rezone this site as a different �s� zoning distinction through clarifying textual information under that land use designation. i�a Discussion among Commissioners and staff included an alternative to zoning code text amendment to �t�� allow the proposed use, with staff clarifying that the only option for the Commission at this time was to �90 support or deny the request; using the PUD process or an amendment to the existing Conditional Use �3i under the current zoning ordinance, requiring the request to return to the Commission as a new � �? application providing for few additional advantages; the need for future discussions on appropriate sites ��a for institutional uses or modifications to the existing regional business zone to support those uses; and »a revising the zoning chart if the use is allowed, indicating that a church would be a permitted use with �s5 additional review needed to determine negative impacts beyond those already analyzed. i9s AMENDMENT TO MOTION »� Boerigter moved, Gisselquist seconded, modification of the motion to read that churches are a �� permitted use in General Business Districts, with no need for a Conditional Use Permit. ,-, Page 4 of 5
