Regular City Council Meeting <br />Monday, March 22, 2010 <br />Page 11 <br />Councilmembers encouraged other candidates to keep their interest in involve- <br />ment with their local government; and Councilmember Pust charged Council- <br />member Roe, as part of the Parks and Recreation Master Plan group to get those <br />candidates involved at that level. <br />c. Consider the Request by Twin City Chinese Christian Church fora ZON- <br />ING TEXT AMENDMENT to allow contemporary church uses at 2755 Long <br />Lake Road and in General Business (B-3) Districts generally (PF10-006) <br />Associate Planner Bryan Lloyd briefly reviewed staff's analysis of this request, as <br />detailed in the RCA dated March 22, 2010; and their recommendation for denial <br />based on specifics outlined in Section 6 of that report. <br />Discussion among staff, including Mr. Lloyd and City Planner Thomas Paschke, <br />and Councilmembers included definitions of land use designations and those insti- <br />tutional uses included; staffls interpretation of the absence of specific reference to <br />Institutional land uses as not recommending those uses; current zoning code al- <br />lowance of church use only in District B-1 through a Conditional Use and sur- <br />rounded by neighborhoods in residential areas; possible locations of churches re- <br />trofitted in strip malls of which the City is unaware of that use; and additional <br />Comprehensive Plan guidance. <br />Further discussion included regional contemporary churches versus traditional <br />neighborhood churches; absence of discussion at the Comprehensive Plan Steer- <br />ing Committee level on which districts were suited for church use and whether <br />excluded intentionally or not; and staff's determination that potentially high em- <br />ployment areas didn't support institutional uses, whether tax generating or not. <br />Applicant Representatives <br />Ron Wong, 2340 East 121St Street, Burnsville, MN, Chair of Trustee Com- <br />mittee at Twin City Chinese Christian Church (T4C) <br />Mr. Wong provided background and historical information of the T4C church, <br />specific to the regional and ethnic nature of the church; and thanked staff for their <br />assistance in pursuing this application, along with the Planning Commission for <br />their unanimous recommendation for approval.
