<br />Roseville Planning Commission Meeting <br />Wednesday, May 1, 1985 <br /> <br />Planning File 1590 - Northwestern District of the Christian -- <br />and Missionary Alliance Church <br />application for amendment to the <br />Comprehensive Plan at 1813 Lexington <br />Avenue. <br />Presentation <br />Mr. Dahlgren indicated the applicant proposes to amend the <br />Comprehensive Plan by changing the property at 1813 Lexington <br />Avenue from low-density residential to limited business. If <br />approved, they would then apply for a rezoning to permit the <br />construction of a church headquarters office building. The <br />building would be one story, with a residential character. <br />Mr. Dahlgren stated the City has a policy of not expanding the <br />commercial development along Lexington Avenue, but he felt this <br />miaht be a aood place to terminate the commercial zone on the <br />west side of Lexington with this limited business office <br />building. <br />Discussion <br />Mrs. Dressler asked if the property would be tax exempt. <br />Reverend Powell, representing the church, indicated it had <br />been determined at this time, but they would be attempting <br />have it designated as tax exempt. <br />not <br />to <br />Mrs. Johnson asked what types of uses could occur in limited <br />business. Mr. Dahlgren responded that permitted uses in the <br />limited business zone included office buildings, medical and <br />dental services, private clubs and a few other uses. <br /> <br />Mr. Bill Pothen, representing his mother who lives at 1125 <br />Garden, asked why the driveways for the parking lot were on <br />Garden rather than Lexington, and also why the parking lot is <br />located so close to his mother's lot. Reverend Powell indicated <br />that it was more difficult to get out on Lexington Avenue, and <br />felt it would be safer to have the driveways onto Garden. <br />Mr. Pothen indicated the architecture of the building was pretty <br />good. He felt that Garden Avenue was a good place to stop the <br />commercial zone, and that this lot should remain for residential. <br />Recommendation <br />Berry moved, DeBenedet seconded that Northwestern District of the <br />Christian Missionary Alliance Church application for amendment to <br />the Comprehensive Plan at 1813 Lexington Avenue be approved. <br />
