There appears to be no impact on general health, safety, and public welfare. 5.7 ComprehensivePlan. As a church, the project is a compatible use with the Comprehensive Plan designation as a medium density residential use. 6.0 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: 6.1 Based on the information and findings provided in Section 4 and 5 of this project report, the Community Development Staff recommends approval of a CONDITIONALUSE PERMIT to allow the construction of a 8,302 square foot institutional use addition to the existing church within an R-1 zone (including a worship center, expanded lobby, new restrooms, and a basement) for Real Life Church, 2353 Chatsworth Street, subj ect to 9 conditions detailed in the proj ect report dated July 'I, 2004. 7.0 PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION 7.1 On July 7,2004, the Roseville Planning Commission held the public hearing regarding the Real Life Church request. At the hearing, two citizens addressed the Commission. The first resident asked about parking lot lighting and indicated a concern over the parking lot expansion. The second citizen expressed concern over tree loss and a concern over the size of the parking lot. 7.2 The City Planner indicated that parking lot lighting is required to be a recessed or cut-off variety that does not have a luminary that directly shines outward, and all lighting must be at or below a half a foot candle at the property line. 7.3 The Planner further indicated that the City Code requires a specific number of spaces for this use, which must be provided or shown as proof of parking (indicated on plan for later construction). In the case of the Real Life Proposal, the site plan indicates the requisite number of parking spaces and 18 additional with an additional access to Lovell. Staff supports this proposed plan. 7.4 Additionally, the City Planner indicated that the City has no way of requiring tree preservation, but works with development proposals to seek maximum buffering and preservation where possible. In the case of the Real Life proposal, trees are too large to relocate and the largest trees are being preserved (southwest comer and adj acent to proposed storm water management pond) except for those where the future 18 stall parking plot and Lovell access is proposed.
