Keating, AICP Community Developmentireeb /J.6. THROUGH: Stan Boling, AICP Planning Director FROM: Eric Blade Staff Planner, Current Development DATE: February 3, 1999 SUBJECT: Community Baptist Church's Request for Special Exception Use Approval for a Building Addition to an Existing Place of Worship It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at its regular meeting of February 16, 1999. Reverend Ron Barber, on behalf of the Community Baptist Church, has submitted a request for special exception use approval to add a 704 sq. ft. modular building to the site of an existing place of worship. The subject site is located at 12534 Roseland Road and is zoned RS -3 (Single Family Residential up to 3 units per acre). The proposed modular building will be utilized for Sunday school classrooms. Within the RS -3 zoning district, places of worship require special exception use approval and conformance with LDR section 971.28(1). The existing facilities were approved years ago via the special exception process. Because the proposed modular building addition represents an expansion of more than 10% of the existing place of worship, special exception use approval through the public hearing process is required At its regular meeting of January 14, 1999, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted (7-0) to recommend that the Board of County Commissioners grant the special exception use request with the conditions stated at the end of this report. The Board is now to grant approval, approval with conditions, or deny the special exception use request. Pursuant to section 971.05 of the LDRs, the Board is to consider the appropriateness of the requested use for the subject site and the surrounding area. The Board may attach any conditions and safeguards necessary to mitigate impacts and to ensure compatibility of the use with the surrounding areas. Staff has reviewed the administrative approval site plan application submitted in conjunction with the special exception use request and has granted site plan approval subject to Board approval of the special exception use request. Therefore, the site plan approval -will become effective if and when the Board grants special exception approval. FEBRUARY 16, 1999 • -19- BOOK 108 PAGE -3113-13"
