� Attachment C Today's regional churches like T4C require sites much different than traditional small neighborhood churches. T4C's Reauest to the Citv of Roseville We appreciated your willingness to meet with us on lanuary 11, 2010 to discuss our proposal, your email of lanuary 21 confirming your desire for a pre-submittal letter, and the application guidance you provided by email on February 4, 2009. We respectfully submit this Zoning Text Amendment Application to amend the text of the city code, sections 1005.015 and 1005.05, to allow church, worship/service, and/or school use as a permitted or conditional use. We thank you in advance for your help with fulfilling our goal for a regional site that supports the planned usage of [he new facility and the growth of the T4C congregation. d. Other Information: Please see the attached site plan, "PRELIMINARY SITE STUDIES 12/31/09, TVJIN CITY CHINESE CHRISTIAN CHURCH". In addition, we submit this additional supporting commentary: Additional Supportine Commentarv How does the qroqosed use of the 2755 Lon¢ Lake Road site bv T4C fit with current Business Land Use Reeulations ladonted Julv 20061� The current zonin� of the site is'B3" General Business District and is described in Sect 1005.05 as follows: 'The 8-3 General Business District is designed for generol retail uses in individuol buildings or sirip centers which face and front on a state or county rood, It ollows for larger indoor and exterior sales and fast food sales thon [he B-2 District. The 8-3 Gene�al Business District is intended/or certoin areas designoted as B Business orea in the Comprehensive Plan.' As mentioned above the regional nature and unique character and uses of T4C are appropriate to the existing B-3 classification, although not currently permitted: Permitted, Accessorv and Conditional uses are shown in Section 1005 O15' This table identifies "churches" in the same line as "public/private colleges and schools' and only allows their indusion by Conditional Use Permit in the 8-1 Zoning District of all the zoning districts. There are several significant differences between T4C and public and private schools or colleges, in that the children are almost always accompanied by their parents as a family, arriving together from around the metro area by automobile once or twice a week, instead of the segregated daytime use of the schools which would be locally populated with more typical foot traffic The scale of the thurch is also much smaller-- on a building scale vs. the campus scale of the colleges.
